INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS
Timber Point Global Allocations Fund
March 31, 2021 (Unaudited)
The investment objective of the Timber Point Global Allocations Fund (the “Global Fund”) is to seek income with long-term growth of capital as a secondary objective.
The Global Fund intends to achieve its investment objective by utilizing an asset allocation strategy to invest in a global portfolio of uncorrelated assets that can include exposure, through underlying vehicles, to common stocks and other investments. The Global Fund will invest primarily in common stocks of all issuers, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), mutual funds, closed-end funds, and private funds such as hedge funds, private equity funds, and fund-of-funds. The Global Fund, through underlying vehicles and securities in which it invests, may invest in non-U.S. companies (including those in emerging markets). The Global Fund may also invest directly in debt securities of any maturity or credit quality, including debt securities that are convertible into common or preferred stocks and high-yield bonds (commonly referred to as “junk bonds”).
The Global Fund will invest directly or indirectly in derivatives for both hedging purposes and to increase returns. The Global Fund will invest in derivatives including equity, total return, and currency swap agreements; futures contracts and options on futures contracts (including with respect to index and commodities); and forward currency contracts. Timber Point Capital Management LLC (the “Adviser”) will execute a portion of the Global Fund’s strategy by investing in a wholly owned and controlled subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”). The Subsidiary invests the majority of its assets in commodities, commodity-linked derivative investments and other futures contracts. The Subsidiary is subject to the same investment restrictions as the Global Fund, when viewed on a consolidated basis.
The Global Fund may also engage in short sales for either hedging or speculative purposes. A short sale involves the sale of a security that the Global Fund does not own in the expectation of purchasing the same security (or a security exchangeable therefor) later and at a lower price and profiting from the price decline. Similarly, when taking short positions with respect to securities through investments in derivative instruments, the Adviser is expecting the value of such securities to fall during the period of the Global Fund’s investment exposure. The Global Fund may purchase or sell options for hedging purposes. The Global Fund will not engage in naked put writing and the value of any options will be less than the Global Fund’s net assets.

INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS
Timber Point Alternative Income Fund
March 31, 2021 (Unaudited)
The investment objective of the Timber Point Alternative Income Fund (the “Income Fund”) is to seek to provide shareholders with above-average total returns over a complete market cycle primarily through capital appreciation and income generation. The Fund considers “above-average total returns” to be returns that are uncorrelated to, and greater than, the Fund’s primary benchmark.
The Income Fund seeks to obtain its investment objective by allocating assets among credit-related instruments such as corporate bonds, municipal bonds, mortgage and asset-backed securities, and floating-rate securities. The Income Fund is designed to generate more of its income and returns from assets with less yield-curve risk than traditional duration-sensitive bonds. The Income Fund may invest in debt securities of any maturity and any quality, including below-investment grade debt (also known as “junk bonds”).
The Income Fund may also invest in equity securities including those of private funds, including private funds such as hedge funds and private equity funds, exchange-traded-notes (ETNs”), exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), mutual funds, and publicly traded and non-publicly traded business development companies (“BDCs”). Investments in illiquid private funds, including illiquid hedge funds and private equity funds, will be limited to no more than 15% of the Income Fund’s net assets. The Income Fund may invest in equity securities of any market capitalization. The Income Fund may invest without limitation in investments tied economically to any country in the world, including emerging market countries.

| (9) | Includes adjustments in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and, consequently, the net asset values for financial reporting purposes and the returns based upon those net asset values may differ from the net asset values and return shareholder transactions. |
| (10) | The amount of net realized and unrealized gain on investment per share for the year ended September 30, 2020, does not accord with the amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Operations due to the timing of purchases and sales of Fund shares in relation to fluctuating market values. |

1. ORGANIZATION
The Timber Point Global Allocations Fund, formerly, the Crow Point Global Tactical Allocation Fund (the “Global Fund”), and the Timber Point Alternative Income Fund, formerly, the Crow Point Alternative Income Fund (the “Income Fund”) (collectively, the “Funds”) were organized on October 6, 2017 as separate diversified series of 360 Funds (the “Trust”). The Trust was organized on February 24, 2005 as a Delaware statutory trust. The Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Global Fund’s investment objective is to seek income with long-term growth of capital as a secondary objective. The Income Fund’s investment objective is to seek to provide shareholders with above-average total returns over a complete market cycle primarily through capital appreciation and income generation.
Each Fund offers one class of shares, Institutional Class.
| 2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements and are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Funds are investment companies that follow the accounting and reporting guidance of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies.
a) Security Valuation – All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in note 3.
b) Short Sales – The Funds may sell securities short. A short sale is a transaction in which a Fund sells a security it does not own or have the right to acquire (or that it owns but does not wish to deliver) in anticipation that the market price of that security will decline.
When Funds make a short sale, the broker-dealer through which the short sale is made must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the party purchasing the security. Funds are required to make a margin deposit in connection with such short sales; the Funds may have to pay a fee to borrow particular securities and will often be obligated to pay over any dividends and accrued interest on borrowed securities.
If the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short sale and the time the Funds cover their short positions, the Funds will incur a loss; conversely, if the price declines, the Funds will realize a capital gain. Any gain will be decreased, and any loss increased, by the transaction costs described above. The successful use of short selling may be adversely affected by imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the security sold short and the securities being hedged.
To the extent the Funds sell securities short, they will provide collateral to the broker-dealer and (except in the case of short sales “against the box”) will maintain additional asset coverage in the form of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid securities with its Custodian in a segregated account in an amount at least equal to the difference between the current market value of the securities sold short and any amounts required to be deposited as collateral with the selling broker (not including the proceeds of the short sale).
c) Investment Companies – The Funds may invest in investment companies such as open-end funds (mutual funds), exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and closed-end funds (“CEFs”) (also referred to as “Underlying Funds”) subject to limitations as defined in the 1940 Act. Your cost of investing in the Funds will generally be higher than the cost of investing directly in the Underlying Funds. By investing in the Funds, you will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the Underlying Funds in which the Funds invest in addition to the Funds’ direct fees and expenses. Also, with respect to dividends paid by the Underlying Funds, it is possible for these dividends to exceed the underlying investments’ taxable earnings and profits resulting in the excess portion of such dividends being designated as a return of capital. Distributions received from investments in securities that represent a return of capital or capital gains are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments or as a realized gain, respectively.

| 2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
d) Options – The Funds may purchase and write (i.e., sell) put and call options. Such options may relate to particular securities or stock indices, and may or may not be listed on a domestic or foreign securities exchange and may or may not be issued by the Options Clearing Corporation. Options trading is a highly specialized activity that entails greater than ordinary investment risk. Options may be more volatile than the underlying instruments, and therefore, on a percentage basis, an investment in options may be subject to greater fluctuation than an investment in the underlying instruments themselves.
A call option for a particular security gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy, and the writer (seller) the obligation to sell, the underlying security at the stated exercise price at any time prior to the expiration of the option, regardless of the market price of the security. The premium paid to the writer is in consideration for undertaking the obligation under the option contract. A put option for a particular security gives the purchaser the right to sell, and the writer (seller) the obligation to buy the security at the stated exercise price at any time prior to the expiration date of the option, regardless of the market price of the security. If an option purchased by the Funds expires unexercised, the Funds realize a loss equal to the premium paid. If the Funds enter into a closing sale transaction on an option purchased by it, the Funds will realize a gain if the premium received by the Funds on the closing transaction is more than the premium paid to purchase the option or a loss if it is less. If an option written by the Funds expires on the stipulated expiration date or if the Funds enter into a closing purchase transaction, they will realize a gain (or loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction exceeds the net premium received when the option is sold). If a call option written by the Funds is exercised, the proceeds of the sale will be increased by the net premium originally received and the Funds will realize a gain or loss. If a put option written by the Funds is exercised, the cost of the purchase will be decreased by the net premium originally received.
e) Wholly Owned Subsidiary – The Global Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in a wholly owned and controlled Cayman Islands subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”), which is expected to invest in one or a combination of (i) options, (ii) futures, (iii) forwards, (iv) spot contracts, or (v) swap contracts, each of which may be tied to (i) commodities, (ii) financial indices and instruments, (iii) foreign currencies, or (iv) equity indices. The consolidated Schedule of Investments, Statement of Assets and Liabilities, Statement of Operations, Statements of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights of the Global Fund include the accounts of the Subsidiary. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation for the Fund. The Subsidiary is advised by the Timber Point Capital Management LLC (the “Adviser”) and acts as an investment vehicle in order to effect certain investments consistent with the Global Fund’s investment objectives and policies specified in the Global Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information. The inception date of the Subsidiary was December 1, 2018. As of March 31, 2021, total net assets of the Global Fund were $37,981,661 of which $5,565,962, or approximately 14.65%, represented the Global Fund’s ownership of the shares of the Subsidiary.
f) Swap Agreements - The Funds may enter into interest rate, index and currency exchange rate swap agreements in an attempt to obtain a particular desired return at a lower cost to the Funds than if they had invested directly in an instrument that yielded that desired return. Swap agreements are two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors for periods ranging from a few weeks to more than one year. In a standard “swap” transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of returns) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments. The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties are calculated with respect to a “notional amount,” i.e., the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate, in a particular foreign currency, or in a “basket” of securities representing a particular index. The “notional amount” of the swap agreement is only a fictive basis on which to calculate the obligations the parties to a swap agreement have agreed to exchange. The Funds’ obligations (or rights) under a swap agreement will generally be equal only to the amount to be paid or received under the agreement based on the relative values of the positions held by each party to the agreement (the “net amount”). The Funds’ obligations under a swap agreement will be accrued daily (offset against any amounts owing to the Funds) and any accrued but unpaid net amounts owed to a swap counterparty will be covered by the maintenance of a segregated account consisting of cash, U.S. government securities, or other liquid securities, to avoid leveraging of the Funds’ portfolio.

| 2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
Whether a Funds’ use of swap agreements enhance the Funds’ total return will depend on the adviser’s ability to correctly predict whether certain types of investments are likely to produce greater returns than other investments. Because they are two-party contracts and may have terms of greater than seven days, swap agreements may be considered to be illiquid. Moreover, the Fundsbear the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. The Funds’ adviser will cause the Funds to enter into swap agreements only with counterparties that would be eligible for consideration as repurchase agreement counterparties under the Funds’ repurchase agreement guidelines. The swap market is a relatively new market and is largely unregulated. It is possible that developments in the swaps market, including potential government regulation, could adversely affect the Funds’ ability to terminate existing swap agreements or to realize amounts to be received under such agreements.
g) Federal Income Taxes – The Funds have qualified and intend to continue to qualify as regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). It is the policy of the Funds to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. The Funds also intend to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that they will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains. Therefore, no federal income tax or excise tax provision is required.
As of and during the six month period ended March 31, 2021, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax expenses. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liability as income tax expense in the statements of operations. During the six month period ended March 31, 2021, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and Delaware state.
In addition, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management of the Funds to analyze all open tax years, as defined by IRS statute of limitations for all major jurisdictions, including federal tax jurisdictions and certain state tax jurisdictions. As of and during the year ended May 31, 2018, the period ended September 30, 2018, the years ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2020 and the six month period ended March 31, 2021 for the Global Fund; and the years ended September 30, 2017 through September 30, 2020 for the Income Fund and the six month period ended March 31, 2021, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds have no examinations in progress and are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
h) Distributions to Shareholders – Dividends from net investment income and distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and paid at least annually. Income and capital gain distributions, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. GAAP requires that permanent financial reporting differences relating to shareholder distributions be reclassified to paid-in capital or net realized gains.
i) Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
j) Other – Investment and shareholder transactions are recorded on trade date. The Funds determine the gain or loss realized from the investment transactions by comparing the original cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds. Dividend income and expenses are recognized on the ex-dividend date or as soon as information is available to the Funds and interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.
Processes and Structure
The Funds’ Board of Trustees has adopted guidelines for valuing securities and other derivative instruments including in circumstances in which market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated authority to the Adviser to apply those guidelines in determining fair value prices, subject to review by the Board of Trustees.

3. SECURITIES VALUATIONS (continued)
Hierarchy of Fair Value Inputs
The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs are as follows:
| • | Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access. |
| • | Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data. |
• | Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Fair Value Measurements
A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Trust’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows.
Equity securities (common stock, ETFs, mutual funds and CEFs) – Securities traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the NASDAQ national market) are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. To the extent these securities are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Certain foreign securities may be fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as American Depositary Receipts, financial futures, Exchange Traded Funds, and the movement of the certain indexes of securities based on a statistical analysis of the historical relationship and are categorized in level 2. Preferred stock and other equities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are also categorized in level 2.
Money market funds – Money market funds are valued at their net asset value per share and are categorized as level 1.
Derivative instruments – Listed derivatives, including options, that are actively traded, are valued based on quoted prices from the exchange and categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Options held by the Funds for which no current quotations are readily available and which are not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean price and are categorized within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts include forward, swap, and option contracts related to interest rates; foreign currencies; credit standing of reference entities; equity prices; or commodity prices, and warrants on exchange-traded securities. Depending on the product and terms of the transaction, the fair value of the OTC derivative products can be modeled taking into account the counterparties’ creditworthiness and using a series of techniques, including simulation models. Many pricing models do not entail material subjectivity because the methodologies employed do not necessitate significant judgments, and the pricing inputs are observed from actively quoted markets, as is the case of interest rate swap and option contracts. OTC derivative products valued using pricing models are categorized within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

3. SECURITIES VALUATIONS (continued)
In accordance with the Trust’s good faith pricing guidelines, the Adviser is required to consider all appropriate factors relevant to the value of securities for which it has determined other pricing sources are not available or reliable as described above. No single standard exists for determining fair value, because fair value depends upon the circumstances of each individual case. As a general principle, the current fair value of an issue of securities being valued by the Adviser would appear to be the amount which the owner might reasonably expect to receive for them upon their current sale. Methods which are in accordance with this principle may, for example, be based on (i) a multiple of earnings; (ii) a discount from market of a similar freely traded security (including a derivative security or a basket of securities traded on other markets, exchanges or among dealers); or (iii) yield to maturity with respect to debt issues, or a combination of these and other methods. Good faith pricing is permitted if, in the Adviser’s opinion, the validity of market quotations appears to be questionable based on factors such as evidence of a thin market in the security based on a small number of quotations, a significant event occurs after the close of a market but before the Funds’ NAV calculations that may affect a security’s value, or the Adviser is aware of any other data that calls into question the reliability of market quotations. Good faith pricing may also be used in instances when the bonds in which the Funds invest may default or otherwise cease to have market quotations readily available.
The Trustees of the 360 Funds adopted the M3Sixty Consolidated Valuation Procedures, which established a Valuation Committee to work with the Adviser and report to the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) on securities being fair valued or manually priced. The Independent Chairman and Trustee of the 360 Funds, along with the Trust’s Principal Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer are members of the Valuation Committee which meets at least monthly or, as required, to review the interim actions and coordination with the Adviser in pricing fair valued securities, and consideration of any unresolved valuation issues or a request to change the methodology for manually pricing a security. In turn, the Independent Chairman provides updates to the Board at the regularly scheduled board meetings as well as interim updates to the board members on substantive changes in a daily valuation or methodology issue.
If the Adviser decides that a price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the fair value of the securities, when prices are not readily available from a pricing service, or when certain restricted or illiquid securities are being valued, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Adviser, in conformity with guidelines adopted by and subject to review of the Board and the Fair Valuation Committee. These securities will be categorized as level 3 securities.
The following tables summarize the inputs used to value the Funds’ assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of March 31, 2021.

Information About Your Funds’ Expenses – (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The example below is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period as indicated below.
Actual Expenses – The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses (relating to the example $1,000 investment made at the beginning of the period). You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes – The second section of the table provides information about the hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds to other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
