Fund Overview

This semi-annual shareholder report contains important information about The Gabelli Global Growth Fund (the Fund) for the period of January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024. The Fund’s investment objective primarily seeks to provide investors with appreciation of capital. Current income is a secondary objective of the Fund. The Fund’s investment strategy is to invest at least 65% of its total assets in common stocks of companies which the portfolio managers believe are likely to have rapid growth in revenues and earnings and potential for above average capital appreciation or are undervalued. The Global Growth Fund invests primarily in common stocks of foreign and domestic small-capitalization, mid-capitalization, and large-capitalization issuers. As a “global” fund, the Fund invests in securities of issuers, or related investments thereof, located in at least three countries, and at least 40% of the Fund’s total net assets are invested in securities of non-U.S. issuers. You can find additional information about the Fund at www.gabelli.com. You can also request this information by contacting us at 800-GABELLI (800-422-3554).

How did the Fund perform?

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Gabelli Global Growth Fund outperformed its broad-based benchmark, the MSCI AC World Index and its comparative benchmark, the Lipper Global Large-Cap Growth Fund Classification. Economic data began to soften in the second quarter, suggesting tighter monetary policy may be having its intended effect. Separately, the artificial intelligence cycle has accelerated so far this year, and beneficiaries are emerging in the semiconductor and data center infrastructure sectors.

How has the Fund performed over the past 10 years?

The performance chart of the fund class presented reflects a hypothetical $10,000 investment, assuming the maximum sales charge, compared to a broad-based securities market index and more narrowly based indices reflecting market sectors in which the Fund invests over a 10-year period. The chart uses total return NAV performance and assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distribution. Fund expenses were deducted.

How did the Fund perform?

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Gabelli Global Growth Fund outperformed its broad-based benchmark, the MSCI AC World Index and its comparative benchmark, the Lipper Global Large-Cap Growth Fund Classification. Economic data began to soften in the second quarter, suggesting tighter monetary policy may be having its intended effect. Separately, the artificial intelligence cycle has accelerated so far this year, and beneficiaries are emerging in the semiconductor and data center infrastructure sectors.

How has the Fund performed over the past 10 years?

The performance chart of the fund class presented reflects a hypothetical $10,000 investment, assuming the maximum sales charge, compared to a broad-based securities market index and more narrowly based indices reflecting market sectors in which the Fund invests over a 10-year period. The chart uses total return NAV performance and assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distribution. Fund expenses were deducted.

How did the Fund perform?

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Gabelli Global Content & Connectivity Fund outperformed its broad-based benchmark, MSCI AC World Index and underperformed its comparative benchmark, MSCI AC World Communication Services Index. The difference in performance was largely driven by the Fund’s lower weights in technology- and online-related mega-cap stocks, to avoid excessive concentration. Top contributors to our Fund included firms benefiting from strength and scale in digital advertising, rising demand for AI chips, solid wireless operating performance, or announced  merger and acquisition  transactions.

Fund Overview

This semi-annual shareholder report contains important information about The Gabelli Global Content & Connectivity Fund (the Fund) for the period of January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024. The primary investment objective of The Gabelli Global Content & Connectivity Fund is capital appreciation. The Fund’s secondary investment objective is current income. The Fund’s investment strategy is to invest its net assets in common stocks of companies in the telecommunications, media, and information technology industries which Gabelli Funds, LLC, the Adviser, believes are likely to have rapid growth in revenues and earnings and potential for above average capital appreciation or are undervalued. In accordance with its concentration policy, the Fund will invest at least 25% of the value of its total assets in the telecommunications related industry, and not invest more than 25% of the value of its total assets in any other particular industry. You can find additional information about the Fund at www.gabelli.com. You can also request this information by contacting us at 800-GABELLI (800-422-3554).

How did the Fund perform?

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Gabelli Global Content & Connectivity Fund outperformed its broad-based benchmark, MSCI AC World Index and underperformed its comparative benchmark, MSCI AC World Communication Services Index. The difference in performance was largely driven by the Fund’s lower weights in technology- and online-related mega-cap stocks, to avoid excessive concentration. Top contributors to our Fund included firms benefiting from strength and scale in digital advertising, rising demand for AI chips, solid wireless operating performance, or announced  merger and acquisition  transactions.

How has the Fund performed over the past 10 years?

The performance chart of the fund class presented reflects a hypothetical $10,000 investment, assuming the maximum sales charge, compared to a broad-based securities market index and more narrowly based indices reflecting market sectors in which the Fund invests over a 10-year period. The chart uses total return NAV performance and assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distribution. Fund expenses were deducted.

Fund Overview

This semi-annual shareholder report contains important information about The Gabelli Global Mini Mites Fund (the Fund) for the period of January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024. The Fund is a non-diversified open end management investment company whose investment objective is to provide investors with long term capital appreciation by investing primarily in micro-capitalization equity securities. The Fund’s investment strategy is to invest in common stocks of smaller companies that have a market capitalization (defined as shares outstanding times current market price) of $250 million or less at the time of the Fund's initial investment. These companies are called micro-cap companies. As a "global" fund, the Fund invests in securities of issuers located in at least three countries and at least 40% of its net assets are invested in securities of non U.S. issuers. You can find additional information about the Fund at www.gabelli.com. You can also request this information by contacting us at 800-GABELLI (800-422-3554).

How did the Fund perform?

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Gabelli Global Mini Mites Fund underperformed its broad-based benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index, and its comparative benchmark, the S&P Developed Small Cap Index. The Mini Mites portfolio underperformed, attributable to its exposure to micro-cap stocks, as the Fund seeks to invest in companies that have market capitalizations of $250 million or less. The environment for small caps remained challenged as large capitalization companies outperformed given continued investor macroeconomic and geopolitical concerns, as well as heighted sensitivity to interest rates.

Fund Overview

This semi-annual shareholder report contains important information about The Gabelli Global Mini Mites Fund (the Fund) for the period of January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024. The Fund is a non-diversified open end management investment company whose investment objective is to provide investors with long term capital appreciation by investing primarily in micro-capitalization equity securities. The Fund’s investment strategy is to invest in common stocks of smaller companies that have a market capitalization (defined as shares outstanding times current market price) of $250 million or less at the time of the Fund's initial investment. These companies are called micro-cap companies. As a "global" fund, the Fund invests in securities of issuers located in at least three countries and at least 40% of its net assets are invested in securities of non U.S. issuers. You can find additional information about the Fund at www.gabelli.com. You can also request this information by contacting us at 800-GABELLI (800-422-3554).

How did the Fund perform?

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Gabelli Global Mini Mites Fund underperformed its broad-based benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index, and its comparative benchmark, the S&P Developed Small Cap Index. The Mini Mites portfolio underperformed, attributable to its exposure to micro-cap stocks, as the Fund seeks to invest in companies that have market capitalizations of $250 million or less. The environment for small caps remained challenged as large capitalization companies outperformed given continued investor macroeconomic and geopolitical concerns, as well as heighted sensitivity to interest rates.

How has the Fund performed since inception?

The performance chart of the fund class presented reflects a hypothetical $10,000 investment, assuming the maximum sales charge, compared to a broad-based securities market index and more narrowly based indices reflecting market sectors in which the Fund invests over a 10-year period. The chart uses total return NAV performance and assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distribution. Fund expenses were deducted.

Fund Overview

This semi-annual shareholder report contains important information about The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund (the Fund) for the period of January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024. The Fund’s investment objective is to provide investors with a high level of total return through a combination of current income and appreciation of capital.

Fund Overview

This semi-annual shareholder report contains important information about The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund (the Fund) for the period of January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024. The Fund’s investment objective is to provide investors with a high level of total return through a combination of current income and appreciation of capital. The Fund’s investment strategy is to invest 80% of its net assets in dividend paying securities (such as common and preferred stock) or other income producing securities (such as fixed income securities and securities that are convertible into common stock). The Fund will primarily invest in common stocks of foreign and domestic issuers that the Fund’s portfolio manager believes are likely to pay dividends and income and have the potential for above average capital appreciation and dividend increases. You can find additional information about the Fund at www.gabelli.com. You can also request this information by contacting us at 800-GABELLI (800-422-3554).

Fund Overview

This semi-annual shareholder report contains important information about The Gabelli International Small Cap Fund (the Fund) for the period of January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024. The Fund’s objective is to provide investors with appreciation of capital. Current income is a secondary objective. The investment strategy is to invest primarily in a portfolio of common stocks of non-U.S. companies. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in the stocks of “small cap companies.” Gabelli Funds, LLC, the Adviser, currently characterizes small capitalization companies as those with total common stock market values of $3 billion or less at the time of investment. The Fund may invest in non-U.S. markets throughout the world, including emerging markets. Ordinarily, the Fund will invest in the securities of at least five countries outside the U.S. You can find additional information about the Fund at www.gabelli.com. You can also request this information by contacting us at 800-GABELLI (800-422-3554).

How did the Fund perform?

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Gabelli International Small Cap Fund underperformed its broad-based benchmark, MSCI AC World Index and its comparatives, the MSCI EAFE Small Cap Index. During the period, the Fund saw small cap stocks decline and the largest capitalization stocks rule the markets. In the face of declining inflation, some countries, including Switzerland, Canada, and Sweden, lowered rates, with consensus that the Fed may follow suit. As in previous time periods, high public sector debt continued to limit policy options.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Gabelli International Small Cap Fund underperformed its broad-based benchmark, MSCI AC World Index and its comparatives, the MSCI EAFE Small Cap Index. During the period, the Fund saw small cap stocks decline and the largest capitalization stocks rule the markets. In the face of declining inflation, some countries, including Switzerland, Canada, and Sweden, lowered rates, with consensus that the Fed may follow suit. As in previous time periods, high public sector debt continued to limit policy options. 

How has the Fund performed over the past 10 years?

The performance chart of the fund class presented reflects a hypothetical $10,000 investment, assuming the maximum sales charge, compared to a broad-based securities market index and more narrowly based indices reflecting market sectors in which the Fund invests over a 10-year period. The chart uses total return NAV performance and assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distribution. Fund expenses were deducted.

Total return represents aggregate total return of a hypothetical investment at the beginning of the year and sold at the end of the period including reinvestment of distributions and does not reflect the applicable sales charges. Total return for a period of less than one year is not annualized.

(a) Per share amounts have been calculated using the average shares outstanding method.

(b) Amount represents less than $0.005 per share.
(c) Under an expense reimbursement agreement with the Adviser, the Adviser reimbursed expenses of $256,977, $527,312, $490,627, $589,925, $591,218, and $91,150 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.
(d) The Fund incurred interest expense. If interest expense had not been incurred, the ratio of operating expenses to average net assets would have been 0.90% and 0.96% for each Class for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, the effect of interest expense was minimal.

(e) For the six months ended June 30, 2024, unaudited.

(f) Includes income resulting from special dividends. Without these dividends, the per share income amounts would have been $0.05, $0.05, and $0.09 (Class AAA), $0.06, $0.04, and $0.09 (Class A), $0.05, $0.15, and $0.08 (Class C), and $0.05, $0.05, and $0.09 (Class I), and the net investment income ratios would have been 0.56%, 0.20%, and 0.45% (Class AAA), 0.57%, 0.18%, and 0.47% (Class A), 0.54%, 0.63%, and 0.41% (Class C), and 0.55%, 0.20%, and 0.46% (Class I) for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

(g) Annualized.

(h) The Fund incurred tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. If tax expense had not been incurred, the ratios of operating expenses to average net assets would have been 0.90% and 0.90% for each Class.

(i) The Fund received credits from a designated broker who agreed to pay certain Fund operating expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, there was no impact to the expense ratios.

(j) Actual number of shares outstanding is 10.02, 10.02, and 0.02 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Gabelli Global Content & Connectivity Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

1. Organization. The Gabelli Global Content & Connectivity Fund, a series of the GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. (the Corporation), was incorporated on July 16, 1993 in Maryland. The Fund is a non-diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), and is one of five separately managed portfolios (collectively, the Portfolios) of the Corporation. The Fund commenced investment operations on November 1, 1993.

 

The Fund’s investment objective primarily seeks to provide investors with appreciation of capital. The Fund may invest a high percentage of its assets in specific sectors of the market in order to achieve a potentially greater investment return. As a result, the Fund may be more susceptible to economic, political, and regulatory developments in a particular sector of the market, positive or negative, and may experience increased volatility to the Fund’s NAV and a magnified effect in its total return.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies. As an investment company, the Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that may require the use of management estimates and assumptions in the preparation of its financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

 

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or a market’s official closing price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. If there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked prices are quoted on such day, the security is valued at the most recently available price or, if the Board of Directors (the Board) so determines, by such other method as the Board shall determine in good faith to reflect its fair market value. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser).

 

Portfolio securities primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such securities on the relevant market, but may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board if market conditions change significantly after the close of the foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Debt obligations for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked prices quoted on such day, the security is valued using the closing bid price. Such debt obligations are valued through prices provided by a pricing service approved by the Board. Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations.

 

Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined by the Board. Fair valuation methodologies and procedures may include, but are not limited to: analysis and review of available financial and non-financial information about the company; comparisons with the valuation and changes in valuation of similar securities, including a comparison of foreign securities with the equivalent U.S. dollar value American Depositary Receipt securities at the close of the U.S. exchange; and evaluation of any other information that could be indicative of the value of the security.

The Gabelli Global Content & Connectivity Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:

 

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Board’s determinations as to the fair value of investments).

 

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in the aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The summary of the Fund’s investments in securities by inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of June 30, 2024 is as follows:

(a) The inputs for these securities are not readily available and are derived based on the judgment of the Adviser according to procedures approved by the Board.

(b) Please refer to the Schedule of Investments for the industry classifications of these portfolio holdings.

 

The Fund did not have transfers into or out of Level 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers among levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

 

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

 

General. The Fund uses recognized industry pricing services – approved by the Board and unaffiliated with the Adviser – to value most of its securities, and uses broker quotes provided by market makers of securities not valued by these and other recognized pricing sources. Several different pricing feeds are received to value domestic equity securities, international equity securities, preferred equity securities, and fixed income securities. The data within these feeds are ultimately sourced from major stock exchanges and trading systems where these securities trade. The prices supplied by external sources are checked by obtaining quotations

The Gabelli Global Content & Connectivity Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

or actual transaction prices from market participants. If a price obtained from the pricing source is deemed unreliable, prices will be sought from another pricing service or from a broker/dealer that trades that security or similar securities.

 

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common or preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, or fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. When fair valuing a security, factors to consider include recent prices of comparable securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. A significant change in the unobservable inputs could result in a lower or higher value in Level 3 securities. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

 

The Adviser reports quarterly to the Board the results of the application of fair valuation policies and procedures. These may include backtesting the prices realized in subsequent trades of these fair valued securities to fair values previously recognized.

 

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments, and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses that result from changes in foreign exchange rates and/or changes in market prices of securities have been included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign currency translations. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gain/(loss) on investments.

 

Foreign Securities. The Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies, and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

 

Foreign Taxes. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.

 

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in securities for which the markets are restricted. Restricted securities include securities whose disposition is subject to substantial legal or contractual restrictions. The sale of restricted securities often requires more time and results in higher brokerage charges or dealer discounts and other selling expenses than the sale of securities eligible for trading on national securities exchanges or in the over-the-counter markets. Restricted securities may sell at a price lower than similar

securities that are not subject to restrictions on resale. Securities freely saleable among qualified institutional investors under special rules adopted by the SEC may be treated as liquid if they satisfy liquidity standards established by the Board. The continued liquidity of such securities is not as well assured as that of publicly traded securities, and accordingly the Board will monitor their liquidity. At June 30, 2024, the Fund did not hold any restricted securities.

 

Investments in Other Investment Companies. The Fund may invest, from time to time, in shares of other investment companies (or entities that would be considered investment companies but are excluded from the definition pursuant to certain exceptions under the 1940 Act) (the Acquired Funds) in accordance with the 1940 Act and related rules. Shareholders in the Fund would bear the pro rata portion of the periodic expenses of the Acquired Funds in addition to the Fund’s expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s pro rata portion of the periodic expenses charged by the Acquired Funds was less than one basis point.

 

Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date with realized gain/(loss) on investments determined by using the identified cost method. Interest income (including amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized using the effective yield to maturity method or amortized to earliest call date, if applicable. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities that are recorded as soon after the ex-dividend date as the Fund becomes aware of such dividends.

 

Determination of Net Asset Value and Calculation of Expenses. Certain administrative expenses are common to, and allocated among, various affiliated funds. Such allocations are made on the basis of each fund’s average net assets or other criteria directly affecting the expenses as determined by the Adviser pursuant to procedures established by the Board.

 

In calculating the NAV per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, redemption fees, and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. Distribution expenses are borne solely by the class incurring the expense.

 

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities and foreign currency transactions, timing differences, and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Fund. Distributions from net investment income for federal income tax purposes include net realized gains on foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund.

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended December 31, 2023 was as follows:

 

Distributions paid from:      
Ordinary income   $ 188,408  
Total distributions paid   $ 188,408

Provision for Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

 

The Fund is permitted to carry capital losses forward for an unlimited period. Capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short term or long term capital losses. As of December 31, 2023, the Fund has a short term capital loss carryforward with no expiration of $260,802 and a long term capital loss carryforward with no expiration of $93,502.

 

The following summarizes the tax cost of investments and the related net unrealized appreciation at June 30, 2024:

 

    Cost   Gross
Unrealized

  Net Unrealized
Appreciation
Investments   $38,521,841   $26,971,490   $(1,344,037)   $25,627,453

 

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of June 30, 2024, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. The Fund’s federal and state tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain open, subject to examination. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

 

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions. The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with the Adviser which provides that the Fund will pay the Adviser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% of the value of its average daily net assets. In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides a continuous investment program for the Fund’s portfolio, oversees the administration of all aspects of the Fund’s business and affairs, and pays the compensation of all Officers and Directors of the Fund who are affiliated persons of the Adviser.

 

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fees and/or to reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain the annualized total operating expenses of the Fund (excluding brokerage costs, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses) until at least April 30, 2025, at no more than an annual rate of 0.90% for all classes of shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Adviser reimbursed expenses in the amount of $256,977. In addition, the Fund has agreed, during the two year period following any waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser, to repay such amount to the extent, that after giving effect to the repayment, such adjusted annualized total operating expenses of the Fund would not exceed 0.90% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets for each share class of the Fund. The agreement is

renewable annually. At June 30, 2024, the cumulative contingent amount which the Fund may repay the Adviser, subject to the terms above, is $1,274,916:

 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, expiring December 31, 2024     $ 490,627  
For the year ended December 31, 2023, expiring December 31, 2025       527,312  
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, expiring December 31, 2026       256,977  
      $ 1,274,916  

 

4. Distribution Plan. The Fund’s Board has adopted a distribution plan (the Plan) for each class of shares, except for Class I Shares, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Class AAA, Class A, and Class C Share Plans, payments are authorized to G.distributors, LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Adviser, at annual rates of 0.25%, 0.25%, and 1.00%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of those classes, the annual limitations under each Plan. Such payments are accrued daily and paid monthly.

 

5. Portfolio Securities. Purchases and sales of securities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, other than short term securities and U.S. Government obligations, aggregated $3,838,158 and $5,895,239, respectively.

 

6. Transactions with Affiliates and Other Arrangements. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund paid brokerage commissions on security trades of $206 to G.research, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser.

 

The cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. Under the sub-administration agreement with Bank of New York Mellon, the fees paid include the cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV. The Fund reimburses the Adviser for this service. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund accrued $22,500 in accounting fees in the Statement of Operations.

 

The Corporation pays retainer and per meeting fees to Directors not affiliated with the Adviser, plus specified amounts to the Lead Director and Audit Committee Chairman. Directors are also reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Corporation.

 

7. Line of Credit. The Fund participates in an unsecured line of credit, which expires on February 26, 2025 and may be renewed annually, of up to $75,000,000 under which it may borrow up to 10% of its net assets from the custodian for temporary borrowing purposes. Borrowings under this arrangement bear interest at a floating rate equal to the higher of the Overnight Federal Funds Rate plus 135 basis points or the Overnight Bank Funding Rate plus 135 basis points in effect on that day. This amount, if any, would be included in “Interest expense” in the Statement of Operations. At June 30, 2024, there were no borrowings outstanding under the line of credit.

 

The average daily amount of borrowings outstanding under the line of credit for 15 days of borrowings during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $323,133 with a weighted average interest rate of 6.58%. The maximum amount borrowed at any time during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $489,000.

 

8. Capital Stock. The Fund currently offers three classes of shares – Class AAA Shares, Class A Shares, and Class I Shares. Class AAA and Class A investors may purchase additional shares of the respective classes. Class C is closed to new and existing investors. The minimum investment for Class I shares is $1,000.

 

The Fund imposes a redemption fee of 2.00% on all classes of shares that are redeemed or exchanged on or before the seventh day after the date of a purchase. The redemption fee is deducted from the proceeds

10. Subsequent Events. Management has evaluated the impact on the Fund of all subsequent events occurring through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

The Gabelli Global Growth Fund 

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

1.  Organization. The Gabelli Global Growth Fund, a series of the GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. (the Corporation), was incorporated on July 16, 1993 in Maryland. The Fund is a non-diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), and is one of five separately managed portfolios (collectively, the Portfolios) of the Corporation. The Fund’s primary objective is capital appreciation. The Fund commenced investment operations on February 7, 1994.

 

2.  Significant Accounting Policies. As an investment company, the Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that may require the use of management estimates and assumptions in the preparation of its financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

 

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or a market’s official closing price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. If there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked prices are quoted on such day, the security is valued at the most recently available price or, if the Board of Directors (the Board) so determines, by such other method as the Board shall determine in good faith to reflect its fair market value. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser).

 

Portfolio securities primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such securities on the relevant market, but may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board if market conditions change significantly after the close of the foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Debt obligations for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked prices quoted on such day, the security is valued using the closing bid price. Such debt obligations are valued through prices provided by a pricing service approved by the Board. Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations.

 

Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined by the Board. Fair valuation methodologies and procedures may include, but are not limited to: analysis and review of available financial and non-financial information about the company; comparisons with the valuation and changes in valuation of similar securities, including a comparison of foreign securities with the equivalent U.S. dollar value American Depositary Receipt securities at the close of the U.S. exchange; and evaluation of any other information that could be indicative of the value of the security.

 

The Fund employs a fair value model to adjust prices to reflect events affecting the values of certain portfolio securities which occur between the close of trading on the principal market for such securities (foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets) at the time when net asset values of the Fund are determined. If the Fund’s valuation committee believes that a particular event would materially affect net asset value, further adjustment is considered. Such securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy presented below.

The Gabelli Global Growth Fund 

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:

 

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Board’s determinations as to the fair value of investments).

 

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in the aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The summary of the Fund’s investments in securities by inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of June 30, 2024 is as follows:

The Fund held no Level 3 investments at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers among levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

 

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

 

General. The Fund uses recognized industry pricing services – approved by the Board and unaffiliated with the Adviser – to value most of its securities, and uses broker quotes provided by market makers of securities not valued by these and other recognized pricing sources. Several different pricing feeds are received to value domestic equity securities, international equity securities, preferred equity securities, and fixed income securities. The data within these feeds are ultimately sourced from major stock exchanges and trading systems where these securities trade. The prices supplied by external sources are checked by obtaining quotations or actual transaction prices from market participants. If a price obtained from the pricing source is deemed unreliable, prices will be sought from another pricing service or from a broker/dealer that trades that security or similar securities.

The Gabelli Global Growth Fund 

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common or preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, or fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. When fair valuing a security, factors to consider include recent prices of comparable securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. A significant change in the unobservable inputs could result in a lower or higher value in Level 3 securities. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

 

The Adviser reports quarterly to the Board the results of the application of fair valuation policies and procedures. These may include backtesting the prices realized in subsequent trades of these fair valued securities to fair values previously recognized.

 

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments, and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses that result from changes in foreign exchange rates and/or changes in market prices of securities have been included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign currency translations. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gain/(loss) on investments.

 

Foreign Securities. The Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies, and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

 

Foreign Taxes. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.

 

Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date with realized gain/(loss) on investments determined by using the identified cost method. Interest income (including amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized using the effective yield to maturity method or amortized to earliest call date, if applicable. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities that are recorded as soon after the ex-dividend date as the Fund becomes aware of such dividends.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

Determination of Net Asset Value and Calculation of Expenses. Certain administrative expenses are common to, and allocated among, various affiliated funds. Such allocations are made on the basis of each fund’s average net assets or other criteria directly affecting the expenses as determined by the Adviser pursuant to procedures established by the Board.

 

In calculating the NAV per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, redemption fees, and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. Distribution expenses are borne solely by the class incurring the expense.

 

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities and foreign currency transactions held by the Fund, timing differences, and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Fund. Distributions from net investment income for federal income tax purposes include net realized gains on foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund.

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended December 31, 2023 was as follows:

 

Distributions paid from:      
Ordinary income   $ 436,136  
Return of capital     10,245  
Total distributions paid   $ 446,381  

 

Provision for Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

 

The Fund is permitted to carry capital losses forward for an unlimited period. Capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short term or long term capital losses. As of December 31, 2023, the Fund has a short term capital loss carryforward with no expiration of $6,779,678.

 

The following summarizes the tax cost of investments and the related net unrealized appreciation at June 30, 2024:

 

      Gross   Gross    
      Unrealized   Unrealized   Net Unrealized
  Cost   Appreciation   Depreciation   Appreciation
Investments $76,098,913   $106,110,587   $(139,795)   $105,970,792

The Gabelli Global Growth Fund 

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of June 30, 2024, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. The Fund’s federal and state tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain open, subject to examination. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

 

3.  Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions. The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with the Adviser which provides that the Fund will pay the Adviser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% of the value of its average daily net assets. In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides a continuous investment program for the Fund’s portfolio, oversees the administration of all aspects of the Fund’s business and affairs, and pays the compensation of all Officers and Directors of the Fund who are affiliated persons of the Adviser.

 

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fees and/or to reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain the annualized total operating expenses of the Fund (excluding brokerage costs, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses) until at least April 30, 2025, at no more than an annual rate of 0.90% for all classes of shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Adviser reimbursed the Fund in the amount of $442,040. In addition, the Fund has agreed, during the two year period following any waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser, to repay such amount to the extent, that after giving effect to the repayment, such adjusted annualized total operating expenses of the Fund would not exceed 0.90% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets for each share class of the Fund. The agreement is renewable annually. At June 30, 2024, the cumulative amount which the Fund may repay the Adviser, subject to the terms above, is $2,205,459:

 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, expiring December 31, 2024     $ 880,676  
For the year ended December 31, 2023, expiring December 31, 2025       882,743  
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, expiring December 31, 2026       442,040  
      $ 2,205,459  

 

4.  Distribution Plan. The Fund’s Board has adopted a distribution plan (the Plan) for each class of shares, except for Class I Shares, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Class AAA, Class A, and Class C Share Plans, payments are authorized to G.distributors, LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Adviser, at annual rates of 0.25%, 0.25%, and 1.00%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of those classes, the annual limitations under each Plan. Such payments are accrued daily and paid monthly.

 

5.  Portfolio Securities. Purchases and sales of securities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, other than short term securities and U.S. Government obligations, aggregated $23,214,178 and $29,228,592, respectively.

 

6. Transactions with Affiliates and Other Arrangements. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund paid brokerage commissions on security trades of $42 to G.research, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser. Additionally, the Distributor retained a total of $2,050 from investors representing commissions (sales charges and underwriting fees) on sales and redemptions of Fund shares.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

The cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. Under the sub-administration agreement with Bank of New York Mellon, the fees paid include the cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV. The Fund reimburses the Adviser for this service. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund accrued $22,500 in accounting fees in the Statement of Operations.

 

The Corporation pays retainer and per meeting fees to Directors not affiliated with the Adviser, plus specified amounts to the Lead Director and Audit Committee Chairman. Directors are also reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Corporation.

 

7.  Line of Credit. The Fund participates in an unsecured line of credit, which expires on February 26, 2025 and may be renewed annually, of up to $75,000,000 under which it may borrow up to 10% of its net assets from the custodian for temporary borrowing purposes. Borrowings under this arrangement bear interest at a floating rate equal to the higher of the Overnight Federal Funds Rate plus 135 basis points or the Overnight Bank Funding Rate plus 135 basis points in effect on that day. This amount, if any, would be included in “Interest expense” in the Statement of Operations. At June 30, 2024, there were no borrowings outstanding under the line of credit.

 

The average daily amount of borrowings outstanding under the line of credit for the five days of borrowings during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $206,200 with a weighted average interest rate of 6.58%. The maximum amount borrowed at any time during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $240,000.

 

8.  Capital Stock. The Fund currently offers three classes of shares – Class AAA Shares, Class A Shares, and Class I Shares. Class AAA and Class A investors may purchase additional shares of the respective classes. Class C is closed to new and existing investors. The minimum investment for Class I shares is $1,000.

 

The Fund imposes a redemption fee of 2.00% on all classes of shares that are redeemed or exchanged on or before the seventh day after the date of a purchase. The redemption fee is deducted from the proceeds otherwise payable to the redeeming shareholders and is retained by the Fund as an increase in paid-in capital. The redemption fees retained by the Fund during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, if any, can be found in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets under Redemption Fees.

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

1.  Organization. The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund, a series of the GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. (the Corporation), was incorporated on July 16, 1993 in Maryland. Although the Fund is registered as a non-diversified fund, it has operated as a diversified fund for over three years. Therefore, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act) obliges the Fund to continue to operate as a diversified fund unless the Fund obtains shareholder approval to operate as a non-diversified fund. The Fund is one of five separately managed portfolios (collectively, the Portfolios) of the Corporation. The Fund’s primary objective is to seek to provide investors a high level of total return through a combination of income and capital appreciation. The Fund commenced investment operations on February 3, 1994.

 

2.  Significant Accounting Policies. As an investment company, the Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that may require the use of management estimates and assumptions in the preparation of its financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

 

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or a market’s official closing price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. If there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked prices are quoted on such day, the security is valued at the most recently available price or, if the Board of Directors (the Board) so determines, by such other method as the Board shall determine in good faith to reflect its fair market value. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser).

 

Portfolio securities primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such securities on the relevant market, but may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board if market conditions change significantly after the close of the foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Debt obligations for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked prices quoted on such day, the security is valued using the closing bid price. Such debt obligations are valued through prices provided by a pricing service approved by the Board. Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations.

 

Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined by the Board. Fair valuation methodologies and procedures may include, but are not limited to: analysis and review of available financial and non-financial information about the company; comparisons with the valuation and changes in valuation of similar securities, including a comparison of foreign securities with the equivalent U.S. dollar value American Depositary Receipt securities at the close of the U.S. exchange; and evaluation of any other information that could be indicative of the value of the security.

 

The Fund employs a fair value model to adjust prices to reflect events affecting the values of certain portfolio securities which occur between the close of trading on the principal market for such securities (foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets) at the time when net asset values of the Fund are determined. If the Fund’s valuation committee believes that a particular event would materially affect net asset value, further adjustment is considered. Such securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy presented below.

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:

 

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Board’s determinations as to the fair value of investments).

 

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in the aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The summary of the Fund’s investments in securities by inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of June 30, 2024 is as follows:

(b) Please refer to the Schedule of Investments for the industry classifications of these portfolio holdings.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund did not have transfers into or out of Level 3. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers among levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

 

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

 

General. The Fund uses recognized industry pricing services – approved by the Board and unaffiliated with the Adviser – to value most of its securities, and uses broker quotes provided by market makers of securities not valued by these and other recognized pricing sources. Several different pricing feeds are received to value domestic equity securities, international equity securities, preferred equity securities, and fixed income securities. The data within these feeds are ultimately sourced from major stock exchanges and trading systems where these securities trade. The prices supplied by external sources are checked by obtaining quotations or actual transaction prices from market participants. If a price obtained from the pricing source is deemed

 

10 

 

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

unreliable, prices will be sought from another pricing service or from a broker/dealer that trades that security or similar securities.

 

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common or preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, or fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. When fair valuing a security, factors to consider include recent prices of comparable securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. A significant change in the unobservable inputs could result in a lower or higher value in Level 3 securities. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

 

The Adviser reports quarterly to the Board the results of the application of fair valuation policies and procedures. These may include backtesting the prices realized in subsequent trades of these fair valued securities to fair values previously recognized.

 

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments, and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses that result from changes in foreign exchange rates and/or changes in market prices of securities have been included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign currency translations. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gain/(loss) on investments.

 

Foreign Securities. The Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies, and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

 

Foreign Taxes. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.

 

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in securities for which the markets are restricted. Restricted securities include securities whose disposition is subject to substantial legal or contractual restrictions. The sale of restricted securities often requires more time and results in higher brokerage charges or dealer discounts and other selling expenses than does the sale of securities eligible for trading on national securities exchanges or in the over-the-counter markets. Restricted securities may sell at a price lower than similar securities that are not subject to restrictions on resale. Securities freely saleable among qualified

institutional investors under special rules adopted by the SEC may be treated as liquid if they satisfy liquidity standards established by the Board. The continued liquidity of such securities is not as well assured as that of publicly traded securities, and accordingly the Board will monitor their liquidity. For the restricted securities the Fund held as of June 30 2024, if any, refer to the Schedule of Investments.

 

Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date with realized gain/(loss) on investments determined by using the identified cost method. Interest income (including amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized using the effective yield to maturity method or amortized to earliest call date, if applicable. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities that are recorded as soon after the ex-dividend date as the Fund becomes aware of such dividends.

 

Determination of Net Asset Value and Calculation of Expenses. Certain administrative expenses are common to, and allocated among, various affiliated funds. Such allocations are made on the basis of each fund’s average net assets or other criteria directly affecting the expenses as determined by the Adviser pursuant to procedures established by the Board.

 

In calculating the NAV per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, redemption fees, and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. Distribution expenses are borne solely by the class incurring the expense.

 

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to the reclassification of prior year return of capital and redesignation of dividends paid. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund.

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended December 31, 2023 was as follows:

 

Distributions paid from:      
Ordinary income   $ 1,053,332  
Net long term capital gains     96,091  
Return of capital     181,829  
Total distributions paid   $ 1,331,252  

 

Provision for Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

    Cost   Gross
Unrealized

Investments   $42,176,655   $18,294,962   $(4,751,310)   $13,543,652

 

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of June 30, 2024, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. The Fund’s federal and state tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain open, subject to examination. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

 

3.  Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions. The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with the Adviser which provides that the Fund will pay the Adviser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% of the value of its average daily net assets. In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides a continuous investment program for the Fund’s portfolio, oversees the administration of all aspects of the Fund’s business and affairs, and pays the compensation of all Officers and Directors of the Fund who are affiliated persons of the Adviser.

 

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fees and/or to reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain the annualized total operating expenses of the Fund (excluding brokerage costs, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses) until at least April 30, 2025, at no more than an annual rate of 0.90% for all classes of shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Adviser reimbursed expenses in the amount of $163,260. In addition, the Fund has agreed, during the two year period following any waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser, to repay such amount to the extent, after giving effect to the repayment, such adjusted annualized total operating expenses of the Fund would not exceed 0.90% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets for each share class of the Fund. The agreement is renewable annually. At June 30, 2024, the cumulative amount which the Fund may repay the Adviser, subject to the terms above, is $816,814:

 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, expiring December 31, 2024     $ 295,664  
For the year ended December 31, 2023, expiring December 31, 2025       357,890  
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, expiring December 31, 2026       163,260

4.  Distribution Plan. The Fund’s Board has adopted a distribution plan (the Plan) for each class of shares, except for Class I Shares, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Class AAA, Class A, and Class C Share Plans, payments are authorized to G.distributors, LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Adviser, at annual rates of 0.25%, 0.25%, and 1.00%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of those classes, the annual limitations under each Plan.

5.  Portfolio Securities. Purchases and sales of securities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, other than short term securities and U.S. Government obligations, aggregated $1,381,684 and $2,269,205, respectively.

 

6. Transactions with Affiliates and Other Arrangements. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund paid brokerage commissions on security trades of $504 to G.research, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser. Additionally, the Distributor retained a total of $11 from investors representing commissions (sales charges and underwriting fees) on sales and redemptions of Fund shares.

 

The Fund received credits from a designated broker who agreed to pay certain Fund operating expenses. The amount of such expenses paid through this directed brokerage arrangement during this period was $1,078.

 

The cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. Under the sub-administration agreement with Bank of New York Mellon, the fees paid include the cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV. The Fund reimburses the Adviser for this service. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund accrued $22,500 in accounting fees in the Statement of Operations.

 

The Corporation pays retainer and per meeting fees to Directors not affiliated with the Adviser, plus specified amounts to the Lead Director and Audit Committee Chairman. Directors are also reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Corporation.

 

7.  Line of Credit. The Fund participates in an unsecured line of credit, which expires on February 26, 2025 and may be renewed annually, of up to $75,000,000 under which it may borrow up to 10% of its net assets from the bank for temporary borrowing purposes. Borrowings under this arrangement bear interest at a floating rate equal to the higher of the Overnight Federal Funds Rate plus 135 basis points or the Overnight Bank Funding Rate plus 135 basis points in effect on that day. This amount, if any, would be included in “Interest expense” in the Statement of Operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no borrowings outstanding under the line of credit.

 

8.  Capital Stock. The Fund currently offers three classes of shares – Class AAA Shares, Class A Shares, and Class I Shares. Class AAA and Class A investors may purchase additional shares of the respective classes. Class C is closed to new and existing investors. The minimum investment for Class I shares is $1,000.

 

The Fund imposes a redemption fee of 2.00% on all classes of shares that are redeemed or exchanged on or before the seventh day after the date of a purchase. The redemption fee is deducted from the proceeds otherwise payable to the redeeming shareholders and is retained by the Fund as an increase in paid-in capital. The redemption fees retained by the Fund during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, if any, can be found in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets under Redemption Fees.

Total return represents aggregate total return of a hypothetical investment at the beginning of the year and sold at the end of the period including reinvestment of distributions and does not reflect the applicable sales charges. Total return for a period of less than one year is not annualized.

(a) Per share amounts have been calculated using the average shares outstanding method.

(b) Amount represents less than $0.005 per share.

(c) Under an expense reimbursement agreement with the Adviser, the Adviser reimbursed expenses of $103,326, $251,208, $205,704, $216,306, $210,061, and $184,323 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.

(d) The Fund incurred interest expense. If interest expense had not been incurred, the ratio of operating expenses to average net assets would have been 0.90%, 0.90%, 0.91%, and 0.90% for each Class for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2020. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2019, the effect of interest expense was minimal.

(e) For the six months ended June 30, 2024, unaudited.

(f) Annualized.

(g) The Fund received credits from a designated broker who agreed to pay certain Fund operating expenses. If such credits had not been received, the ratios of operating expenses to average net assets would have been 0.95% and 0.95% for each Class for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2022, there was no impact to the expense ratios.

(h) Includes income resulting from special dividends. Without these dividends, the per share income/(loss) amounts would have been $0.09, $0.06, and $0.15 (Class AAA), $0.08, $0.06, and $0.04 (Class A), $0.07, $0.05, and $(0.05) (Class C), and $0.10, $0.07, and $0.15 (Class I), and the net investment income/(loss) ratios would have been 0.77%, 0.36%, and 1.19% (Class AAA), 0.69%, 0.39%, and 0.29% (Class A), 0.65%, 0.34%, and (0.43%) (Class C), and 0.81%, 0.44%, and 1.21% (Class I) for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2019, respectively.

(i) The Fund incurred tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. If tax expense had not been incurred, the ratios of operating expenses to average net assets would have been 0.90% for each Class.

The Gabelli International Small Cap Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

1. Organization. The Gabelli International Small Cap Fund, a series of the GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. (the Corporation), was incorporated on July 16, 1993 in Maryland. Although the Fund is registered as a non-diversified fund, it has operated as a diversified fund for over three years. Therefore, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act) obliges the Fund to continue to operate as a diversified fund unless the Fund obtains shareholder approval to operate as a non-diversified fund. The Fund is one of five separately managed portfolios (collectively, the Portfolios) of the Corporation. The Fund’s primary objective is capital appreciation. The Fund commenced investment operations on May 11, 1998.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies. As an investment company, the Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that may require the use of management estimates and assumptions in the preparation of its financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

 

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or a market’s official closing price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. If there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked prices are quoted on such day, the security is valued at the most recently available price or, if the Board of Directors (the Board) so determines, by such other method as the Board shall determine in good faith to reflect its fair market value. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser).

 

Portfolio securities primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such securities on the relevant market, but may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board if market conditions change significantly after the close of the foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Debt obligations for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked prices quoted on such day, the security is valued using the closing bid price. Such debt obligations are valued through prices provided by a pricing service approved by the Board. Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations.

 

Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined by the Board. Fair valuation methodologies and procedures may include, but are not limited to: analysis and review of available financial and non-financial information about the company; comparisons with the valuation and changes in valuation of similar securities, including a comparison of foreign securities with the equivalent U.S. dollar value American Depositary Receipt securities at the close of the U.S. exchange; and evaluation of any other information that could be indicative of the value of the security.

 

The Fund employs a fair value model to adjust prices to reflect events affecting the values of certain portfolio securities which occur between the close of trading on the principal market for such securities (foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets) at the time when net asset values of the Fund are determined. If the Fund’s valuation committee believes that a particular event would materially affect net asset value, further adjustment is considered. Such securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy presented below.

The Gabelli International Small Cap Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:

 

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Board’s determinations as to the fair value of investments).

 

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in the aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The summary of the Fund’s investments in securities by inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of June 30, 2024 is as follows:

(a) Please refer to the Schedule of Investments for the industry classifications of these portfolio holdings.

 

The Fund held no Level 3 investments at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers among levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

 

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

 

General. The Fund uses recognized industry pricing services – approved by the Board and unaffiliated with the Adviser – to value most of its securities, and uses broker quotes provided by market makers of securities not valued by these and other recognized pricing sources. Several different pricing feeds are received to value domestic equity securities, international equity securities, preferred equity securities, and fixed income securities. The data within these feeds are ultimately sourced from major stock exchanges and trading systems

where these securities trade. The prices supplied by external sources are checked by obtaining quotations or actual transaction prices from market participants. If a price obtained from the pricing source is deemed unreliable, prices will be sought from another pricing service or from a broker/dealer that trades that security or similar securities.

 

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common or preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, or fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. When fair valuing a security, factors to consider include recent prices of comparable securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. A significant change in the unobservable inputs could result in a lower or higher value in Level 3 securities. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

 

The Adviser reports quarterly to the Board the results of the application of fair valuation policies and procedures. These may include backtesting the prices realized in subsequent trades of these fair valued securities to fair values previously recognized.

 

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments, and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses that result from changes in foreign exchange rates and/or changes in market prices of securities have been included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign currency translations. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gain/(loss) on investments.

 

Foreign Securities. The Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies, and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

 

Foreign Taxes. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.

 

Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date with realized gain/(loss) on investments determined by using the identified cost method. Interest income (including amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized using the effective yield to maturity method or amortized to earliest

call date, if applicable. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities that are recorded as soon after the ex-dividend date as the Fund becomes aware of such dividends.

 

Determination of Net Asset Value and Calculation of Expenses. Certain administrative expenses are common to, and allocated among, various affiliated funds. Such allocations are made on the basis of each fund’s average net assets or other criteria directly affecting the expenses as determined by the Adviser pursuant to procedures established by the Board.

 

In calculating the NAV per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, redemption fees, and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. Distribution expenses are borne solely by the class incurring the expense.

 

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities and foreign currency transactions held by the Fund, timing differences, and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Fund. Distributions from net investment income for federal income tax purposes include net realized gains on foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund.

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended December 31, 2023 was as follows:

 

Distributions paid from:      
Ordinary income   $ 108,848  
Total distributions paid   $ 108,848  

 

Provision for Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

 

The Fund is permitted to carry capital losses forward for an unlimited period. Capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short term or long term capital losses. As of December 31, 2023, the Fund has a short term capital loss carryforward with no expiration of $33,331 and a long term capital loss carryforward with no expiration of $511,621.

 

At June 30, 2024, there was no tax adjustment to the cost of investments.

 

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not

threshold. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of June 30, 2024, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. The Fund’s federal and state tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain open, subject to examination. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

 

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions. The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with the Adviser which provides that the Fund will pay the Adviser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% of the value of its average daily net assets. In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides a continuous investment program for the Fund’s portfolio, oversees the administration of all aspects of the Fund’s business and affairs, and pays the compensation of all Officers and Directors of the Fund who are affiliated persons of the Adviser.

 

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fees and/or to reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain the annualized total operating expenses of the Fund (excluding brokerage costs, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses) until at least April 30, 2025, at no more than an annual rate of 0.90% for all classes of shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Adviser reimbursed the Fund in the amount of $103,326. In addition, the Fund has agreed, during the two year period following any waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser, to repay such amount to the extent, that after giving effect to the repayment, such adjusted annualized total operating expenses of the Fund would not exceed 0.90% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets for each share class of the Fund. The arrangement is renewable annually. At June 30, 2024, the cumulative amount which the Fund may repay the Adviser, subject to the terms above, is $560,238:

 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, expiring December 31, 2024   $ 205,704  
For the year ended December 31, 2023, expiring December 31, 2025     251,208  
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, expiring December 31, 2026     103,326  
    $ 560,238  

 

4. Distribution Plan. The Fund’s Board has adopted a distribution plan (the Plan) for each class of shares, except for Class I Shares, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Class AAA, Class A, and Class C Share Plans, payments are authorized to G.distributors, LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Adviser, at annual rates of 0.25%, 0.25%, and 1.00%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of those classes, the annual limitations under each Plan. Such payments are accrued daily and paid monthly.

 

5. Portfolio Securities. Purchases and sales of securities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, other than short term securities and U.S. Government obligations, aggregated $195,408 and $536,158, respectively.

 

6. Transactions with Affiliates and Other Arrangements. The cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

The Fund received credits from a designated broker who agreed to pay certain Fund operating expenses. The amount of such expenses paid through this directed brokerage arrangement during this period was $691.

 

The Corporation pays retainer and per meeting fees to Directors not affiliated with the Adviser, plus specified amounts to the Lead Director and Audit Committee Chairman. Directors are also reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Corporation.

 

7. Line of Credit. The Fund participates in an unsecured line of credit, which expires on February 26, 2025 and may be renewed annually, of up to $75,000,000 under which it may borrow up to 10% of its net assets from the bank for temporary borrowing purposes. Borrowings under this arrangement bear interest at a floating rate equal to the higher of the Overnight Federal Funds Rate plus 135 basis points or the Overnight Bank Funding Rate plus 135 basis points in effect on that day. This amount, if any, would be included in “Interest expense” in the Statement of Operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no borrowings outstanding under the line of credit.

 

8. Capital Stock. The Fund currently offers three classes of shares – Class AAA Shares, Class A Shares, and Class I Shares. Class AAA and Class A investors may purchase additional shares of the respective classes. Class C is closed to new and existing investors. The minimum investment for Class I shares is $1,000.

 

The Fund imposes a redemption fee of 2.00% on all classes of shares that are redeemed or exchanged on or before the seventh day after the date of a purchase. The redemption fee is deducted from the proceeds otherwise payable to the redeeming shareholders and is retained by the Fund as an increase in paid-in capital. The redemption fees retained by the Fund during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, if any, can be found in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets under Redemption Fees.

Total return represents aggregate total return of a hypothetical investment at the beginning of the period and sold at the end of the period including reinvestment of distributions and does not reflect the applicable sales charges. Total return for a period of less than one year is not annualized.

(a) Per share amounts have been calculated using the average shares outstanding method.

(b) Amount represents less than $0.005 per share.

(c) Under an expense reimbursement agreement with the Adviser, the Adviser reimbursed expenses of $93,549, $176,163, $148,978, $147,312, $163,109, and $126,588 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.

(d) For the six months ended June 30, 2024, unaudited.

(e) Annualized.

(f) The Fund received credits from a designated broker who agreed to pay certain Fund operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020. If such credits had not been received, the ratios of operating expenses to average net assets would have been 0.91%, 0.92%, 0.92%, 0.92%, and 0.96% for each Class, respectively.

(g) The Fund incurred interest expense. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the impact was minimal. For the year ended December 31, 2019, if interest expense had not been incurred, the ratio of operating expenses to average net assets would have been 1.22% (Class AAA and Class A),1.90% (Class C), and 0.99% (Class I), respectively.

(h) The Fund incurred tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2021 and there was no impact on the expense ratios.

The Gabelli Global Mini Mites Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

1. Organization. The Gabelli Global Mini Mites Fund, a series of the GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. (the Corporation), was incorporated on July 16, 1993 in Maryland. The Fund is a non-diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), and is one of five separately managed portfolios (collectively, the Portfolios) of the Corporation. The Fund’s primary objective is long term capital appreciation by investing primarily in micro-capitalization equity securities. The Fund commenced investment operations on October 1, 2018.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies. As an investment company, the Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that may require the use of management estimates and assumptions in the preparation of its financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

 

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or a market’s official closing price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. If there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked prices are quoted on such day, the security is valued at the most recently available price or, if the Board of Directors (the Board) so determines, by such other method as the Board shall determine in good faith to reflect its fair market value. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser).

 

Portfolio securities primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such securities on the relevant market, but may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board if market conditions change significantly after the close of the foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Debt obligations for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked prices quoted on such day, the security is valued using the closing bid price. Such debt obligations are valued through prices provided by a pricing service approved by the Board. Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations.

 

Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined by the Board. Fair valuation methodologies and procedures may include, but are not limited to: analysis and review of available financial and non-financial information about the company; comparisons with the valuation and changes in valuation of similar securities, including a comparison of foreign securities with the equivalent U.S. dollar value American Depositary Receipt securities at the close of the U.S. exchange; and evaluation of any other information that could be indicative of the value of the security.

 

The Fund employs a fair value model to adjust prices to reflect events affecting the values of certain portfolio securities which occur between the close of trading on the principal market for such securities (foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets) at the time when net asset values of the Fund are determined. If the Fund’s valuation committee believes that a particular event would materially affect net asset value, further adjustment is considered. Such securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy presented below.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:

 

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;
Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Board’s determinations as to the fair value of investments).

 

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in the aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

The summary of the Fund’s investments in securities by inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of June 30, 2024 is as follows:

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

 

General. The Fund uses recognized industry pricing services – approved by the Board and unaffiliated with the Adviser – to value most of its securities, and uses broker quotes provided by market makers of securities not valued by these and other recognized pricing sources. Several different pricing feeds are received to value domestic equity securities, international equity securities, preferred equity securities, and fixed income securities. The data within these feeds are ultimately sourced from major stock exchanges and trading systems where these securities trade. The prices supplied by external sources are checked by obtaining quotations or actual transaction prices from market participants. If a price obtained from the pricing source is deemed unreliable, prices will be sought from another pricing service or from a broker/dealer that trades that security or similar securities.

 

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common or preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, or fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. When fair valuing a security, factors to consider include recent prices of comparable securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. A significant change in the unobservable inputs could result in a lower or higher value in Level 3 securities. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

 

The Adviser reports quarterly to the Board the results of the application of fair valuation policies and procedures. These may include backtesting the prices realized in subsequent trades of these fair valued securities to fair values previously recognized.

 

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments, and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses that result from changes in foreign exchange rates and/or changes in market prices of securities have been included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign currency translations. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gain/(loss) on investments.

 

Foreign Securities. The Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies, and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

Foreign Taxes. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.

 

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in securities for which the markets are restricted. Restricted securities include securities whose disposition is subject to substantial legal or contractual restrictions. The sale of restricted securities often requires more time and results in higher brokerage charges or dealer discounts and other selling expenses than the sale of securities eligible for trading on national securities exchanges or in the over-the-counter markets. Restricted securities may sell at a price lower than similar securities that are not subject to restrictions on resale. Securities freely saleable among qualified institutional investors under special rules adopted by the SEC may be treated as liquid if they satisfy liquidity standards established by the Board. The continued liquidity of such securities is not as well assured as that of publicly traded securities, and accordingly the Board will monitor their liquidity. At June 30, 2024, the Fund did not hold any restricted securities.

 

Investments in Other Investment Companies. The Fund may invest, from time to time, in shares of other investment companies (or entities that would be considered investment companies but are excluded from the definition pursuant to certain exceptions under the 1940 Act) (the Acquired Funds) in accordance with the 1940 Act and related rules. Shareholders in the Fund would bear the pro rata portion of the periodic expenses of the Acquired Funds in addition to the Fund’s expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund’s pro rata portion of the periodic expenses charged by the Acquired Funds was less than one basis point.

 

Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date with realized gain/(loss) on investments determined by using the identified cost method. Interest income (including amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized using the effective yield to maturity method or amortized to earliest call date, if applicable. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities that are recorded as soon after the ex-dividend date as the Fund becomes aware of such dividends.

 

Determination of Net Asset Value and Calculation of Expenses. Certain administrative expenses are common to, and allocated among, various affiliated funds. Such allocations are made on the basis of each fund’s average net assets or other criteria directly affecting the expenses as determined by the Adviser pursuant to procedures established by the Board.

 

In calculating the NAV per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, redemption fees, and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. Distribution expenses are borne solely by the class incurring the expense.

 

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities and foreign currency transactions held by the Fund, timing differences, and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Fund. Distributions from net investment income for federal income tax purposes include net realized gains on

 

12 

 

 

The Gabelli Global Mini Mites Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV per share of the Fund.

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended December 31, 2023 was as follows:

 

Distributions paid from:      
Ordinary income (inclusive of short term capital gains)   $ 529,059  
Net long term capital gains     543,730  
Total distributions paid   $ 1,072,789  

 

Provision for Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

 

The following summarizes the tax cost of investments and the related net unrealized depreciation at June 30, 2024:

 

      Cost     Gross
Unrealized
Appreciation
    Gross
Unrealized
Depreciation
    Net Unrealized
Depreciation
 
Investments     $11,037,556     $1,480,337     $(2,148,045)     $(667,708)  

 

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of June 30, 2024, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. The Fund’s federal and state tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain open, subject to examination. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

 

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions. The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with the Adviser which provides that the Fund will pay the Adviser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% of the value of its average daily net assets. In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides a continuous investment program for the Fund’s portfolio, oversees the administration of all aspects of the Fund’s business and affairs, and pays the compensation of all Officers and Directors of the Fund who are affiliated persons of the Adviser.

 

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fees and/or to reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain the annualized total operating expenses of the Fund (excluding brokerage costs, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses) until at least April 30, 2025, at no more than an annual rate of 0.90% for all classes of shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Adviser reimbursed the Fund in the amount of $93,549. In addition, the Fund has agreed, during the two

The Gabelli Global Mini Mites Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

year period following any waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser, to repay such amount to the extent, that after giving effect to the repayment, such adjusted annualized total operating expenses (continuing the same foregoing exclusions as above) of the Fund would not exceed 0.90% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets for each share class of the Fund. The agreement is renewable annually. At June 30, 2024, the cumulative amount which the Fund may repay the Adviser, subject to the terms above, is $418,690:

 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, expiring December 31, 2024     $ 148,978  
For the year ended December 31, 2023, expiring December 31, 2025       176,163  
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, expiring December 31, 2026       93,549  
      $ 418,690  

 

4. Distribution Plan. The Fund’s Board has adopted a distribution plan (the Plan) for each class of shares, except for Class I Shares, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Class AAA, Class A, and Class C Share Plans, payments are authorized to G.distributors, LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Adviser, at annual rates of 0.25%, 0.25%, and 1.00%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of those classes, the annual limitations under each Plan. Such payments are accrued daily and paid monthly.

 

5. Portfolio Securities. Purchases and sales of securities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, other than short term securities and U.S. Government obligations, aggregated $2,227,168 and $1,159,327, respectively.

 

6. Transactions with Affiliates and Other Arrangements. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund paid $2,426 in brokerage commissions on security trades to G.research, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund received credits from a designated broker who agreed to pay certain Fund operating expenses. The amount of such expenses paid through this directed brokerage arrangement during this period was $724.

 

The cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. Under the sub-administration agreement with Bank of New York Mellon, the fees paid include the cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV. The Fund reimburses the Adviser for this service. The Adviser did not seek a reimbursement during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

 

The Corporation pays retainer and per meeting fees to Directors not affiliated with the Adviser, plus specified amounts to the Lead Director and Audit Committee Chairman. Directors are also reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Corporation.

 

7. Line of Credit. The Fund participates in an unsecured line of credit, which expires on February 26, 2025 and may be renewed annually, of up to $75,000,000 under which it may borrow up to 10% of its net assets from the bank for temporary borrowing purposes. Borrowings under this arrangement bear interest at a floating rate equal to the higher of the Overnight Federal Funds Rate plus 135 basis points or the Overnight Bank Funding Rate plus 135 basis points in effect on that day. This amount, if any, would be included in “Interest expense” in the Statement of Operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no borrowings under the line of credit.

8. Capital Stock. The Fund currently offers three classes of shares – Class AAA Shares, Class A Shares, and Class I Shares. Class AAA and Class A investors may purchase additional shares of the respective classes. Class C is closed to new and existing investors. The minimum investment for Class I shares is $1,000.

 

The Fund imposes a redemption fee of 2.00% on all classes of shares that are redeemed or exchanged on or before the seventh day after the date of a purchase. The redemption fee is deducted from the proceeds otherwise payable to the redeeming shareholders and is retained by the Fund as an increase in paid-in capital. The redemption fees retained by the Fund during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, if any, can be found in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets under Redemption Fees.
