NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
A. | Security Valuation. Equity securities, which may include Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITS”), Business Development Companies (“BDCs”), and Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”,listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotationsare readily available (except for securities traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“NASDAQ”)), including securities traded over-the-counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded on the valuation date (or at approximately 4:00 p.m. EST if a security’s primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent quoted bid price or mean between the most recent quoted bid and ask prices for long and short positions. For a security that trades on multiple exchanges, the primary exchange will generally be considered the exchange on which the security is generally most actively traded. For securities traded on the NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. Prices of securities traded on the securities exchange will be obtained from recognized independent pricing agents each day that the Funds are open for business. |
Under Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, a fair value will be determined by the Valuation Designee (as defined in Rule 2a-5) in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Policy and Fair Value Procedures, as applicable, of the Adviser, subject to oversight by the Board. When a security is “fair valued,” consideration is given to the facts and circumstances relevant to the
27
SP FUNDS TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
April 30, 2025
particular situation, including a review of various factors set forth in the Adviser’s Pricing and Valuation Policy and Fair Value Procedures, as applicable. Fair value pricing is an inherently subjective process, and no single standard exists for determining fair value. Different funds could reasonably arrive at different values for the same security. The use of fair value pricing by a fund may cause the net asset value (“NAV”) of its shares to differ significantly from the NAV that would be calculated without regard to such considerations.
As described above, the Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:
Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access. |
Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. |
Level 3 – | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available; representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability and would be based on the best information available. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value each Fund’s investments as of April 30, 2025:

Refer to the Schedules of Investments for industry classifications. |
B. | Federal Income Taxes. Each Fund has elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) as defined in Subtitle A, Chapter 1, Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. No provision has been made for federal income taxes as it is the intention of the Funds to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to RICs and to make distributions of income and realized gains sufficient to relieve it from all or substantially all excise and income taxes. |
In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to RICs, the Funds intend to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of their net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and at least 98.2% of their net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts, if any, from prior years. As a RIC, the Funds are subject to a 4% excise tax that is imposed if the Funds do not distribute by the end of any calendar year at least the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary income (not taking into account any capital gain or loss) for the calendar year and (ii) 98 .2% of its capital gain in excess of its capital loss (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for a one year period generally ending on October 31 of the calendar year (unless an election is made to use the fund’s fiscal year) . The Funds generally intend to distribute income and capital gains in the manner necessary to minimize (but not necessarily eliminate) the imposition of such excise tax. The Funds may retain income or capital gains and pay excise tax when it is determined that doing so is in the best interest of shareholders. Management, in consultation with the Board, evaluates the costs of the excise tax relative to the benefits of retaining income and capital gains, including that such undistributed amounts (net of the excise tax paid) remain available for investment by the Funds and are available to supplement future distributions. Tax expense is disclosed in the Statements of Operations, if applicable. As of April 30, 2025, the Funds did not have any tax positions that did not meet the threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Generally, tax authorities can examine all the tax returns filed for the last three years. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal and the Commonwealth of Delaware; however, the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially.
C. | Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are determined on a specific identification basis. Discounts/premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted/amortized over the life of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends received from REITs generally are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains, and may include return of capital. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Other non-cash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the property received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. |
D. | Foreign Currency. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. |
The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
The Funds report net realized foreign exchange gains or losses that arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
E. | Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income, if any, for the Funds are declared and paid at least monthly. Distributions to shareholders from net realized gains on securities, if any, for the Funds normally are declared and paid on an annual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. |
F. | Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |

G. | Share Valuation. The NAV per share of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities by the total number of shares outstanding for the Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is closed for trading. |
H. | Guarantees and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements cannot be known; however, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote. |
I. | Cash. Cash includes non-interest bearing and non-restricted cash with one institution. |
J. | Illiquid Securities. Pursuant to Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act, the Funds have adopted a Board-approved Liquidity Risk Management Program (the “Program”) that requires, among other things, that each Fund limit its illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of the value of the Fund’s net assets. An illiquid investment is any investment that a Fund reasonably expects cannot be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. If a Fund should be in a position where the value of illiquid investments held by the Fund exceeds 15% of the Fund’s net assets, that Fund will take such steps as set forth in the Program. |
K. | Organizational and Offering Costs. All organizational and offering costs for the Trust and the Funds will be borne by the Adviser. The Trust and the Funds do not have an obligation to reimburse the Adviser for organization and offering costs paid on their behalf. |
NOTE 3 – PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS |
A. | Concentration Risk (only applicable to the World ETF). Each Fund’s investments will be concentrated in an industry or group of industries to the extent the Index is so concentrated. Accordingly, the value of shares of the Funds may rise and fall more than the value of shares that invest in securities of companies in a broader range of industries. |
B. | Currency Risk. Because the Funds’ NAVs are determined in U.S. dollars, the Funds’ NAVs could decline if the currency of a non-U.S. market in which the Funds invest depreciates against the U.S. dollar or if there are delays or limits on repatriation of such currency. Currency exchange rates can be very volatile and can change quickly and unpredictably. As a result, the Funds’ NAVs may change quickly and without warning. |
C. | Emerging Markets Risk. Investments in emerging market securities impose risks different from, or greater than, risks of investing in foreign developed countries, including smaller market capitalization; significant price volatility; and restrictions on foreign investment. Emerging market countries may have relatively unstable governments and may present the risk of nationalization of businesses, expropriation, and confiscatory taxation, or, in certain instances, reversion to closed market, centrally planned economies. Emerging market economies may also experience more severe downturns. The currencies of emerging market countries may experience significant declines against the U.S. dollar, and devaluation may occur subsequent to investments in these currencies by the Funds. Inflation and rapid fluctuations in inflation rates have had, and may continue to have, negative effects on the economies and securities markets of certain emerging market countries. In addition, less information may be available about companies in emerging markets than in developed markets because such emerging markets companies may not be subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards or to other regulatory practices required by U.S. companies which may lead to potential errors in index data, index computation and/or index construction. Such conditions may impact the ability of the Funds to buy, sell or otherwise transfer securities; adversely affect the trading market and price for such securities; and/or cause the Funds to decline in value. |
D. | Equity Securities Risk. Equity securities are subject to changes in value, and their values may be more volatile than those of other asset classes. The Index is composed of common stocks, which generally subject their holders to more risks than preferred stocks and debt securities because common stockholders’ claims are subordinated to those of holders of preferred stocks and debt securities upon the bankruptcy of the issuer. |
E. | Exchange Traded Fund (“ETF”) Risks (only applicable to the ETFs). |
● | Authorized Participants, Market Makers, and Liquidity Providers Concentration Risk. The Funds have a limited number of financial institutions that are authorized to purchase and redeem shares of the Funds directly from the Funds (known as “Authorized Participants” or “APs”). In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, Shares may trade at a material discount to NAV and possibly face delisting: (i) APs exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other APs step forward to perform these services; or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions. |

April 30, 2025
● | Cash Redemption Risk. Each Fund’s investment strategy may require it to redeem Shares for cash or to otherwise include cash as part of its redemption proceeds. For example, the Fund may not be able to redeem in-kind certain securities held by the Fund. In such a case, the Fund may be required to sell or unwind portfolio investments to obtain the cash needed to distribute redemption proceeds. This may cause the Fund to recognize a capital gain that it might not have recognized if it had made a redemption in-kind. As a result, the Fund may pay out higher annual capital gain distributions than if the in-kind redemption process was used. Additionally, purchases and redemptions of Shares for cash may cause the Fund to incur brokerage costs and those costs could be imposed on the Funds, thus decreasing the Funds’ NAV to the extent that the costs are not offset by a transaction fee payable by an authorized participant. |
● | Costs of Buying or Selling Shares. Due to the costs of buying or selling Shares, including brokerage commissions imposed by brokers and bid-ask spreads, frequent trading of Shares of the Funds may significantly reduce investment results and an investment in shares of the Funds may not be advisable for investors who anticipate regularly making small investments. |
● | Shares May Trade at Prices Other Than NAV. As with all ETFs, Shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. Although it is expected that the market price of Shares will approximate a Fund’s NAV, there may be times when the market price of Shares is more than the NAV intra-day (premium) or less than the NAV intra-day (discount) due to supply and demand of Shares or during periods of market volatility. This risk is heightened in times of market volatility, periods of steep market declines, and periods when there is limited trading activity for Shares in the secondary market, in which case such premiums or discounts may be significant. Because securities held by the Funds may trade on foreign exchanges that are closed when the Fund’s primary listing exchange is open, the Fund is likely to experience premiums and discounts greater than those of ETFs holding only domestic securities. |
● | Trading. Although Shares are listed on a national securities exchange, such as the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”), and may be traded on U.S. exchanges other than the Exchange, there can be no assurance that Shares will trade with any volume, or at all, on any stock exchange. In stressed market conditions, the liquidity of Shares may begin to mirror the liquidity of the Funds’ underlying portfolio holdings, which can be significantly less liquid than Shares. Also, in stressed market conditions, the market for Shares may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the Fund’s underlying portfolio holdings. These adverse effects on liquidity for Shares, in turn, could lead to wider bid/ask spreads and differences between the market price of Shares and the underlying value of those Shares. |
F. | Foreign Securities Risks. Certain foreign countries may impose exchange control regulations, restrictions on repatriation of profit on investments or of capital invested, local taxes on investments, and restrictions on the ability of issuers of non-U.S. securities to make payments of principal and interest to investors located outside the country, whether from currency blockage or otherwise. In addition, the Funds will be subject to risks associated with adverse political and economic developments in foreign countries, including seizure or nationalization of foreign deposits, the imposition of economic sanctions, different legal systems and laws relating to bankruptcy and creditors’ rights, and the potential inability to enforce legal judgments, all of which could cause the Funds to lose money on their investments in non-U.S. securities. The cost of servicing external debt will also generally be adversely affected by rising international interest rates, as many external debt obligations bear interest at rates which are adjusted based upon international interest rates. Because non-U.S. securities may trade on days when Shares are not priced, NAVs may change at times when Shares cannot be sold. |
G. | General Market Risk. Securities markets and individual securities may increase or decrease in value. Security prices may fluctuate widely over short or extended periods in response to market or economic news and conditions, and securities markets also tend to move in cycles. If there is a general decline in the securities markets, it is possible your investment may lose value regardless of the individual results of the companies in which the Funds invest. The magnitude of up and down price or market fluctuations over time is sometimes referred to as “volatility,” and it can be significant. In addition, different asset classes and geographic markets may experience periods of significant correlation with each other. As a result of this correlation, the securities and markets in which the Funds invest may experience volatility due to market, economic, political or social events and conditions that may not readily appear to directly relate to such securities, the securities’ issuer or the markets in which they trade. |
H. | Geographic Investment Risk. To the extent the Funds invest a significant portion of their assets in the securities of companies of a single country or region, they are more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region. |
I. | Information Technology Sector Risk. Certain underlying funds are expected to have material exposure in the information technology sector. To the extent the Funds are invested in such underlying funds, market, or economic factors impacting information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technological advances could have a significant effect on the value of each Fund’s investments. The value of stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily |
31
SP FUNDS TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
April 30, 2025
on technology is particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation and competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from foreign competitors with lower production costs. Stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology, especially those of smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile than the overall market. Information technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability.
J. | Mid-and-Large-Capitalization Companies Risk. Mid-and large-capitalization companies may be less able than smaller capitalization companies to adapt to changing market conditions. Mid-and large-capitalization companies may be more mature and subject to more limited growth potential compared with smaller capitalization companies. During different market cycles, the performance of large capitalization companies has trailed the overall performance of the broader securities markets. |
K. | Models and Data Risk. The composition of the Indices are heavily dependent on proprietary quantitative models as well as information and data supplied by third parties (“Models and Data”). When Models and Data prove to be incorrect or incomplete, any decisions made in reliance thereon may lead to the inclusion or exclusion of securities from an Index universe that would have been excluded or included had the Models and Data been correct and complete. If the composition of the Indices reflects such errors, the Funds’ portfolio can be expected to also reflect the errors. |
L. | Non-Diversified Fund Risk. Each Fund is a non-diversified fund. In general, a non-diversified fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer and may own fewer securities than other funds. Accordingly, a non-diversified fund is generally subject to the risk that a large loss in an individual security will cause a greater loss for the fund than it would if the fund was required to hold a larger number of securities or smaller positions. |
M. | Passive Investment Risk (only applicable to the ETFs). The Funds invest in the securities included in, or representative of, its respective Index regardless of their investment merit. Each Fund does not attempt to outperform its respective Index or take defensive positions in declining markets. As a result, a Fund’s performance may be adversely affected by a general decline in the market segments relating to its Index. |
N. | Recently Organized Fund Risk. The Funds are recently organized management investment companies with limited operating history. As a result, prospective investors have a limited track record or history on which to base their investment decision. There can be no assurance that the Funds will grow to or maintain an economically viable size. |
O. | Sharia-Compliant Investing Risk. Islamic religious law, commonly known as “Shariah,” has certain restrictions regarding finance and commercial activities permitted for Muslims, including interest restrictions and prohibited industries, which reduces the size of the overall universe in which the Funds can invest. The strategy to reduce the investable universe may limit investment opportunities and adversely affect each Fund’s performance, especially in comparison to a more diversified fund. Because Shariah principles preclude the use of interest-paying instruments, cash reserves do not earn income. To the extent that securities become non-compliant following purchase, such securities may be held for a temporary period of time. Additionally, certain companies that meet Shariah screens may nevertheless generate dividend income that is subject to purification. |
P. | Tracking Error Risk. As with all index funds, the performance of each Fund and its Index may differ from each other for a variety of reasons. For example, the Funds incur operating expenses and portfolio transaction costs not incurred by the Index. In addition, the Funds may not be fully invested in the securities of the Index at all times, including during its initial investment period, or may hold securities not included in the Index. |
Q. | Underlying Index Risk (only applicable to the ETFs). Neither the Adviser nor the S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC (the “Index Provider”) is able to guarantee the continuous availability or timeliness of the production of the Index. The calculation and dissemination of the Index values may be delayed if the information technology or other facilities of the Index Provider, calculation agent, data providers and/or relevant stock exchange malfunction for any reason. A significant delay may cause trading in shares of a Fund to be suspended. Errors in Index data, computation and/or the construction in accordance with its methodology may occur from time to time and may not be identified and corrected by the Index Provider, calculation agent or other applicable party for a period of time or at all, which may have an adverse impact on the Funds and their shareholders. |
NOTE 4 – COMMITMENTS AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
The Adviser serves as the investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between the Trust and the Adviser. Pursuant to this agreement, the Adviser is responsible for the general management and administration of the Funds, including investment selection, portfolio management, and compliance with each Fund’s investment objectives and policies, subject to the oversight of the Board. The Adviser directly manages the 2030 Target Date Fund, 2040 Target Date Fund, and 2050 Target Date

Fund, overseeing their investment strategy, asset allocation, and periodic rebalancing. For the Global Technology ETF and World ETF, the Adviser retains full responsibility for investment strategy and portfolio oversight but has engaged Tidal Investments LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) under a Trading Services Sub-Advisory Agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) to handle trade execution and broker-dealer selection. The Sub-Adviser does not provide investment management services and operates solely under the direction of the Adviser.
Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, each Fund pays the Adviser a unitary management fee (the “Investment Advisory Fee”) based on the Fund’s average daily net assets. This fee covers substantially all expenses necessary for the operation of the Funds, including transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal and audit services, and compliance oversight. However, certain expenses, (collectively, “Excluded Expenses”) remain the responsibility of the Funds, including interest charges on borrowings, dividends and other expenses on securities sold short, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, accrued deferred tax liability, distribution fees and expenses paid by the Fund under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, and litigation expenses and other non-routine or extraordinary expenses. The Investment Advisory Fees for the Funds are as follows:
Fund |
Investment Advisory Fee | |
2030 Target Date Fund | 0.45% | |
2040 Target Date Fund | 0.45% | |
2050 Target Date Fund | 0.45% | |
Global Technology ETF | 0.55% | |
World ETF | 0.55% |
Pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement for the Global Technology ETF and World ETF, the Adviser compensates the Sub-Adviser for its trading services (the “Sub-Advisory Fee”). The Sub-Advisory Fees paid by the Adviser to the Sub-Adviser are as follows:
Fund |
Sub-Advisory Fee | |
Global Technology ETF | 0.03% | |
World ETF | 0.03% |
There are no Sub-Advisory Fees for the 2030 Target Date Fund, 2040 Target Date Fund, and 2050 Target Date Fund, as all investment management responsibilities remain with the Adviser. The Adviser manages both the Global Technology ETF and World ETF and the 2030 Target Date Fund, 2040 Target Date Fund, and 2050 Target Date Fund, ensuring that each Fund adheres to its respective investment strategy. For the Global Technology ETF and World ETF, the Adviser ensures that the portfolios accurately track their respective indices while maintaining compliance with Sharia-compliant investment principles. The Sub-Adviser is responsible only for trade execution, implementing the Adviser’s trading decisions in accordance with regulatory requirements. For the 2030 Target Date Fund, 2040 Target Date Fund, and 2050 Target Date Fund, the Adviser directly oversees strategic asset allocation, adjusting exposures over time in a glide path strategy that shifts from growth-oriented investments to more conservative allocations as the target date approaches. Across all Funds, the Adviser ensures strict adherence to Sharia-compliant investment principles, which include screening companies for financial and business activity compliance, excluding prohibited industries such as alcohol, gambling, and conventional financial services, and managing investments in accordance with Islamic finance principles. Investment Advisory Fees incurred are calculated and paid monthly to the Adviser. For the Global Technology ETF and World ETF, the Adviser also compensates the Sub-Adviser monthly for trading execution services. Investment Advisory Fees for the period ended April 30, 2025, are disclosed in the Statements of Operations.
Tidal ETF Services LLC (“Tidal”), a Tidal Financial Group company, serves as the Funds’ administrator and, in that capacity, performs various administrative and management services for the Funds. Tidal coordinates the payment of Fund-related expenses and manages the Trust’s relationships with its various service providers.
U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, doing business as U.S. Bank Global Fund Services (“Fund Services”), serves as the Funds’ sub-administrator, fund accountant and transfer agent. In those capacities, Fund Services performs various administrative and accounting services for the Funds. Fund Services prepares various federal and state regulatory filings, reports and returns for the Funds, including regulatory compliance monitoring and financial reporting; prepares reports and materials to be supplied to the Board; and monitors the activities of the Funds’ custodian. U.S. Bank N.A. (the “Custodian”), an affiliate of Fund Services, serves as the Funds’ custodian.
Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the “Distributor”) acts as the Funds’ principal underwriter in a continuous public offering of the Funds’ shares.
The Board has adopted two separate Distribution (Rule 12b-1) Plans (the "Plans") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, one for the Target Date 2030, Target Date 2040 and Target Date 2050 Funds, and one for the Global Technology ETF and World ETF. Under the Plan for the Target Date 2030, Target Date 2040, and Target Date 2050 Funds, these Funds are to pay an amount up to 0.25% of their Investor Class average daily net assets each year to pay distribution

fees for the sale and distribution of their Shares. The Plan adopted for the Global Technology ETF and World ETF has not been activated, and there are no plans to impose these fees. However, in the event Rule 12b-1 fees are charged in the future, because the fees are paid out of the Funds’ assets on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than certain other types of sales charges. No distribution fees are paid by Institutional Class shares.
The 2030 Target Date Fund, 2040 Target Date Fund, and 2050 Target Date Funds have adopted a shareholder services plan on behalf of their Investor Class Shares. Under a shareholder services plan, the Funds’ Investor Class shares may pay an authorized firm up to 0.25% on an annualized basis of average daily net assets attributable to its customers who are shareholders. For this fee, the authorized firms may provide a variety of services, including but not limited to: (i) maintaining accounts relating to Clients that invest in Shares; (ii) arranging for bank wires; (iii) responding to Client inquiries relating to the services performed by Service Providers; (iv) responding to inquiries from Clients concerning their investment in Shares; (v) assisting Clients in changing dividend options, account designations and addresses; (vi) providing information periodically to Clients showing their position in Shares; (vii) forwarding shareholder communications from the Funds such as proxies, shareholder reports, annual reports, and dividend distribution and tax notices to Clients; (viii) processing purchase, exchange and redemption requests from Clients and placing orders with the Funds or their service providers; (ix) providing sub-accounting with respect to Shares beneficially owned by Clients; and (x) processing dividend payments from the Funds on behalf of Clients. Service Providers may also use this fee for payments to financial institutions and intermediaries such as banks, savings and loan associations, insurance companies and investment counselors, broker-dealers, mutual fund supermarkets and the Service Providers’ affiliates and subsidiaries as compensation for such services as are described herein.
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser. Neither the affiliated trustee nor the Trust’s officers receive compensation from the Funds.
NOTE 5 - SEGMENT REPORTING |
In accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, the Funds have evaluated their business activities and determined that they each operate as a single reportable segment.
Each Fund's investment activities are managed by the Adviser, which serves as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The Adviser is responsible for assessing each Fund’s financial performance and allocating resources. In making these assessments, the Adviser evaluates each Fund’s financial results on an aggregated basis, rather than by separate segments. As such, the Funds do not allocate operating expenses or assets to multiple segments, and accordingly, no additional segment disclosures are required. There were no intra-entity sales or transfers during the reporting period.
The Funds primarily generate income through dividends, interest, and realized/unrealized gains on their investment portfolios. Expenses incurred, including management fees, Fund operating expenses, and transaction costs, are considered general Fund-level expenses and are not allocated to specific segments or business lines.
Management has determined that the Funds do not meet the criteria for disaggregated segment reporting under ASU 2023-07 and will continue to evaluate its reporting requirements in accordance with applicable accounting standards.
NOTE 6 – PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES |
For the period ended April 30, 2025, the cost of purchases and proceeds from the sales or maturities of securities, excluding short-term investments, U.S. government securities, and in-kind transactions were as follows:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
April 30, 2025
Net capital losses incurred after November 30 and net investment losses incurred after December 31 (late-year losses), and within the taxable year, may be elected to be deferred to the first business day of each Fund’s next taxable year. As of the most recent fiscal period ended October 31, 2024, the Funds did not defer any post-October losses.
As of October 31, 2024, the Funds did not have any unused capital loss carryforward.
NOTE 9 – BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP |
The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of 25% or more of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of a fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. At April 30, 2025, Charles Schwab owned, as record shareholder, 100% of the outstanding shares of the 2030 Target Date Fund, 2040 Target Date Fund, and 2050 Target Date Fund. It is not known whether any underlying beneficial owners owned or controlled 25% or more of the voting securities of the Funds.
NOTE 10 – SHARES TRANSACTIONS |
The Global Technology ETF and the World ETF (ex-US) ETF (each an “ETF”, and collectively, the “ETFs”) list and trade their shares on the Exchange. Market prices for the shares may be different from their NAV. The ETFs issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV generally in large blocks of shares, called Creation Units. Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally in-kind for securities included in a specified universe. Once created, shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of the ETFs. Creation Units may only be purchased or redeemed by Authorized Participants. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a Depository Trust Company participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the ETFs. Rather, most retail investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.
Each ETF currently offers one class of shares, which has no front-end sales load, no deferred sales charge, and no redemption fee. A fixed transaction fee is imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase or sale of Creation Units. The standard fixed transaction fee is $300 for the Global Technology ETF and $2,500 for the World ETF, payable to the Custodian. The fixed transaction fee may be waived on certain orders if the ETFs’ Custodian has determined to waive some or all of the costs associated with the order or another party, such as the Adviser, has agreed to pay such fee. In addition, a variable fee may be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation Units of up to a maximum of 2% of the value of the Creation Units subject to the transaction. Variable fees are imposed to compensate the ETFs for transaction costs associated with the cash transactions. Variable fees received by the ETFs, if any, are disclosed in the capital shares transactions section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The ETFs may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, with no par value. All shares of the ETFs have equal rights and privileges.
