1. | ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The Snow Family of Funds (the “Funds”) are a series of 360 Funds (the “Trust”). The Trust was organized on February 25, 2005 as a Delaware statutory trust. The Trust is registered as an open end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). The Trust currently offers eight series of shares. The following series of the Snow Family Funds: (i) Snow Capital Focused Value Fund (“Focused Value Fund”), (ii) Snow Capital Hedged Equity Fund (“Hedged Equity Fund”), (iii) Snow Capital Market Plus Fund (“Market Plus Fund”), (iv) Snow Capital Inflation Advantaged Equities Fund (“Inflation Advantaged Equities Fund”), (v) Snow Capital Dividend Plus Fund (“Dividend Plus Fund”), and (vi) Snow Capital Mid Cap Value Fund (“Mid Cap Value Fund”) (each a “Fund” and collectively, the Funds) are each an open end management investment company and separate series of the Trust. All of the Funds, except Snow Capital Dividend Plus Fund, are non-diversified Funds. As non-diversified Funds, they may invest a significant portion of its assets in a small number of companies. The Funds’ investment adviser is Snow Capital Management, L.P (the “Adviser”). Each Fund offers two classes of shares, Class A and Class I shares. Each class of shares commenced operations on March 28, 2013. Each class differs as to sales and redemption charges and ongoing fees. Income and realized/unrealized gains or losses are allocated to each class based on relative share balances. Each Fund’s investment objectives are as follows:
Focused Value Fund | Long-term growth of capital |
Hedged Equity Fund | Long-term growth of capital and protection of investment principal with lower volatility than the U.S. equity market |
Market Plus Fund | Long-term growth of capital |
Inflation Advantaged Equities Fund | Long-term growth of capital and protection of investment principal |
Dividend Plus Fund | Long-term growth of capital and income |
Mid Cap Value Fund | Long-term growth of capital |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
a) Investment Valuation - Equity securities, including Exchange Traded Funds (“ETFs”), listed on a securities exchange or quoted on a national market system are valued at 4:00 p.m., New York time, on the day of valuation. Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. Equity securities that are traded on the NASDAQ National Market System, for which quotes are readily available, are valued at the official closing price. Securities that are listed on an exchange but which are not traded on the valuation date are valued at the most recent bid quotation. 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 described below. When an equity security is valued by an independent pricing service using factors other than market quotations or the market is considered inactive, they will be categorized in Level 2. Money market funds are valued at their net asset value of $1.00 per share and are categorized as Level 1. Securities with maturities of 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value and would be categorized as Level 2. The Funds normally use pricing services to obtain market quotations. Securities and assets for which representative market quotations are not readily available or which cannot be accurately valued using the Funds’ normal pricing procedures are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under policies approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Depending on the relative significance of valuation inputs, fair valued securities may be classified in either Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair value pricing may be used, for example, in situations where (i) a portfolio security, such as a small-cap stock, is so thinly traded that there have been no transactions for that stock over an extended period of time or the validity of a market quotation received is questionable; (ii) the exchange on which the portfolio security is principally traded closes early; (iii) trading of the particular portfolio security is halted during the day and does not resume prior to the Fund’s net asset value calculation; or (iv) the security or warrant is a restricted security not registered under federal securities laws purchased through a private placement not eligible for resale. Because a fair value determination is based on an assessment of the value of the security pursuant to the policies approved by the Fund’s Board, the fair value price may differ substantially from the price at which the security may ultimately be traded or sold. The differences could be material. As of August 31, 2013, no securities were fair valued as determined by the Board.

1. | ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under GAAP, the Fund discloses fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described 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.). |
Level 3 – | Significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of August 31, 2013, in valuing the Fund’s investments carried at fair value:

1. | ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
(a) At August 31, 2013, the Fund held no securities that were considered to be “Level 3” securities (those valued using significant unobservable inputs). Therefore, a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value is not applicable.
(b) All common stock and exchange traded funds held in the Funds are Level 1 securities. For a detailed break-out of common stock by industry and exchange traded funds by investment type, please refer to the Schedules of Investments.
The Fund recognizes transfers, if any, between fair value hierarchy levels at the reporting period end. There were no transfers between levels as of May 31, 2013, from the valuation input levels used on March 28, 2013 (inception date).
b) Federal Income Taxes - The Funds intend to qualify as a 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. Therefore, no provisions for federal income taxes are required.
As of and during the period since inception of March 28, 2013 through August 31, 2013, the Funds did not have any liabilities 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 period since inception of March 28, 2013 through August 31, 2013, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and the state of Delaware.
c) 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.
e) 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.
f) 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 is 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.
g) Short Sales of Securities – A Fund may make short sales, which are transactions in which a Fund sells a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security. To complete a short sale transaction, a Fund will borrow the security from a broker-dealer, which generally involves the payment of a premium and transaction costs. A Fund then sells the borrowed security to a buyer in the market. A Fund will then cover the short position by buying shares in the market either (i) at its discretion; or (ii) when called by the broker-dealer lender. Until the security is replaced, a Fund is required to pay the broker-dealer lender any dividends or interest that accrues during the period of the loan. In addition, the net proceeds of the short sale will be retained by the broker to the extent necessary to meet regulatory or other requirements, until the short position is closed out.
A Fund will incur a loss as a result of the short sale if the price of the security increases between the date of the short sale and the date on which a Fund replaces the borrowed security. A Fund will realize a gain if the security declines in price between those dates. The amount of any gain will be decreased, and the amount of any loss increased, by the amount of the premium, dividends, interest or expenses a Fund may be required to pay in connection with a short sale. When a Fund makes a short sale, a Fund will segregate liquid assets (such as cash, U.S. government securities, or equity securities) on a Fund’s books and/or in a segregated account at a Fund’s custodian in an amount sufficient to cover the current value of the securities to be replaced as well as any dividends, interest and/or transaction costs due to the broker-dealer lender. In determining the amount to be segregated, any securities that have been sold short by a Fund will be marked to market daily. To the extent the market price of the security sold short increases and more assets are required to meet a Fund’s short sale obligations, additional assets will be segregated to ensure adequate coverage of a Fund’s short position obligations.

1. | ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
In addition, a Fund may make short sales “against the box”, i.e., when a Fund sells a security short when a Fund has segregated securities equivalent in kind and amount to the securities sold short (or securities convertible or exchangeable into such securities) and will hold such securities while the short sale is outstanding. A Fund will incur transaction costs, including interest, in connection with opening, maintaining, and closing short sales against the box.
h) Exchange Traded Funds – A Fund may invest in Exchange Traded Funds (“ETFs”). ETFs are registered investment companies and incur fees and expenses such as operating expenses, licensing fees, registration fees, trustees fees, and marketing expenses, and ETF shareholders, such as a Fund, pay their proportionate share of these expenses. Your cost of investing in a Fund will generally be higher than the cost of investing directly in ETFs. By investing in a Fund, you will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the underlying ETFs in which a Fund invests in addition to a Fund's direct fees and expenses.
i) Redemption fees - Shareholders that redeem shares within 30 days of purchase will be assessed a redemption fee of 0.50% of the amount redeemed. The redemption fee is paid directly to and retained by the Funds, and is designed to deter excessive short-term trading and to offset brokerage commissions, market impact and other costs that may be associated with short-term money movement in and out of the Funds. No redemption fees were paid to the Funds during the period since inception of March 28, 2013 through August 31, 2013.
2. | CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS |

Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, the Distributor will provide distribution services to the Funds. The Distributor serves as underwriter/distributor of the Funds. Under the Distribution Agreement, for each Fund, the Distributor shall be paid an annual fee of $9,000 (provided, however, that for so long as a Fund is in the incubation stage, the annual fee shall be $4,500).

There were no distributions paid during the period since inception of March 28, 2013 through August 31, 2013 for the Funds.
For U.S. Federal income tax purposes, the cost of securities owned, gross appreciation, gross depreciation, and net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) of investments at August 31, 2013 were as follows:
Fund | | Tax Cost | | | Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | | Gross Unrealized Depreciation | | | Net Unrealized Appreciation | |
Focused Value Fund: | | | 258,381 | | | | 22,295 | | | | (4,187 | ) | | | 18,108 | |
Hedged Equity Fund | | | 347,555 | | | | 21,486 | | | | (15,649 | ) | | | 5,837 | |

Mid Cap Value Fund | | | 259,103 | | | | 21,029 | | | | (4,029 | ) | | | 17,000 | |
The difference between book basis unrealized appreciation and tax-basis unrealized appreciation for the Hedged Equity Fund is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
The Funds’ tax basis distributable earnings are determined only at the end of each fiscal year.
The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of the fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. As of August 31, 2013, Snow Capital Management, L.P. held 100% of the Funds’ Class A & Class I shares outstanding.
7. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts that may contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, management considers the risk of loss from such claims to be remote.

In accordance with GAAP, Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Fund 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.
9. | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
In December 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11 related to disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position.
In January 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2013-01 “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (“ASU 2013-01”) which amended ASC Subtopic 210-20, Balance Sheet Offsetting. ASU 2013-01 clarified the scope of ASU No. 2011-11 “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (“ASU 2011-11”). ASU 2011-11 requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of that entity’s financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU 2013-01 clarifies the scope of ASU 2011-11 as applying to derivatives accounted for in accordance with Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are offset either in accordance with other requirements of GAAP or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The guidance in ASU 2013-01 and ASU 2011-11 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Management is evaluating any impact ASU 2013-01 and ASU 2011-11 may have on the Fund’s financial statements.
In June 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-08, Financial Services Investment Companies, which updates the scope, measurement, and disclosure requirements for U.S. GAAP including identifying characteristics of an investment company, measurement of ownership in other investment companies and requires additional disclosures regarding investment company status and following guidance in Topic 946 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“FASC”). The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods that begin after December 15, 2013. Management is currently evaluating the impact that these pronouncements may have on the Fund’s financial statements.

Information About Your Fund’s Expenses - (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, such as the redemption fee imposed by the Fund for certain short-term redemptions; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. The example below is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund 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 on 03/28/13). 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 Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s 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 Fund 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.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. For more information on transactional costs, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE TRUST AND SNOW CAPITAL MANAGEMENT L.P.
On December 19, 2012, the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of the 360 Funds (the “Trust”), comprised entirely of Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Independent Trustees”), met in person to review and discuss approving the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Trust and Snow Capital Management L.P. (the “Adviser”) with respect to the Snow Capital Focused Value Fund, the Snow Capital Hedged Equity Fund, the Snow Capital Market Plus Fund, the Snow Capital Inflation Advantaged Equities Fund, the Snow Capital Dividend Plus Fund and the Snow Capital Mid Cap Value Fund (the “Funds”).
With the assistance and advice of independent counsel, the Trustees had requested and received information prior to the meeting that they deemed relevant or necessary to consider in the approval process. In addition, they received a memorandum from independent counsel discussing, among other things, the fiduciary duties and responsibilities of the Board in reviewing and considering approval. The Trustees reviewed and discussed the foregoing information during a private session with their counsel and during the Board meeting. Counsel also reviewed with the Trustees the types of information and factors that they should and should not take into consideration in making their decision about approval. Throughout the process the Trustees had the opportunity to ask questions, and answers to their questions were considered along with the other materials provided.
In assessing various factors in regard to approval, the Board took into consideration information prepared for the approval meeting, such as: (i) reports regarding the services and support to be provided to the Funds and their shareholders by the Adviser; (ii) presentations by the Funds’ portfolio managers addressing the Adviser’s investment philosophy, investment strategy and operations; (iii) compliance reports and background concerning the Funds and the Adviser; (iv) proposed disclosure information to be contained in the registration statement of the Trust and the Form ADV of the Adviser; (v) information on relevant developments in the mutual fund industry and how the Funds and the Adviser proposed to respond to them; (vi) financial information about the Adviser; (vii) a description of the personnel at the Adviser involved with the Funds, their background, professional skills and accomplishments; (viii) information on investment advice, performance, summaries of proposed fund expenses, compliance program, current legal matters, and other general information about the Adviser; (ix) comparative expense and performance information for other mutual funds that are similar to the Funds; (x) where available, information about performance and fees relative to other accounts managed by the Adviser that might be considered comparable to the Funds in terms of investment style; and (xi) any soft-dollar or other “fall-out” or similar benefits to be realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Funds.
The Board did not identify any particular factor or information that was most relevant to its consideration to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement and each Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors considered. Following is a summary of the Board’s consideration of various factors:
The Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided by the Adviser.
The Trustees considered various aspects of the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Funds. They considered the following, without limitation: the quality of the investment advisory services (including research and recommendations with respect to portfolio securities), to be provided; the background, experience and professional ability and skill of the portfolio management personnel assigned to the Funds, noting the commitment to hire and retain qualified personnel to work on behalf of the Funds and their shareholders; the processes used for formulating investment recommendations and assuring compliance with each Fund’s investment objectives and limitations, as well as for assuring compliance with regulatory requirements, specifically noting that the Adviser had not reported any material compliance matter over the last year; the manner in which the Adviser seeks to satisfy their obligation to assure “best execution” in connection with securities transactions placed for the Funds, noting the Adviser’s policies and procedures on trading and brokerage, as well as expected average brokerage commissions paid; the investment strategies and sources of information upon which the

Adviser expects to rely in making investment decisions for the Funds; where applicable, the fees charged to and the performance of other accounts managed by the Adviser similar to the Funds; the oversight of the Funds’ portfolios by the Adviser; the Adviser’s succession plans and business continuity plans; and the coordination of services for the Funds among the service providers, Trust management and the Trustees.
After reviewing and considering the foregoing information and further information in the materials provided by the Adviser (including its Form ADV), the Board concluded, in light of all the facts and circumstances, that the expected nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser were satisfactory and adequate for the respective Funds.
The Costs of the Services to be provided and Profits Expected to be realized by the Adviser from its Relationships with the Funds.
In considering these factors, the Trustees took into consideration the overall expenses of each Fund, including the nature and frequency of advisory fee payments, the expected asset levels of each Fund and the gross and net expenses of the Funds as compared to gross and net expenses of a group of funds that may be considered similar, noting that the expenses of each of the Funds was within the range of expenses incurred by the other funds in its group. The Trustees also took into consideration the information provided about the financial condition and profitability of the Adviser and the level of commitment to the Funds by the principals of the Adviser to their roles for the Funds.
The Trustees also considered the fees charged by the Adviser to comparable accounts – such as institutional accounts -- they manage in a similar style and noted that, typically, the fees charged to the Funds were similar to fees charged to other accounts managed by the Adviser. The Trustees used this information as a potential gauge for what fees might be considered reasonable for similar investment services, although they also considered that accounts identified as similar for this purpose may also have material differences that impact their overall comparability, such as differences in the range of the investor base served by the account; the average account size; the customization of fees, services and reporting available; the daily liquidity, redemptions and turnover that might occur in a mutual fund that might not be the case in other accounts; the regulatory requirements applicable to a fund that do not apply to many non-fund accounts; and the Board oversight applicable to funds that does not apply to most other types of accounts; to name a few. The Trustees took into consideration these potential differences when assessing both performance and fee information with respect to comparable accounts.
After further consideration of these elements, the Board concluded, in light of all the facts and circumstances, that the costs of the services provided to the Funds and the profits expected to be realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Funds were satisfactory.
Other Benefits Derived by the Adviser from its Relationships with the Funds and Conflicts of Interest.
The Trustees also considered other benefits that the Adviser could derive from their relationship with the Funds (sometimes referred to as “fall-out” benefits) and conflicts of interest. In particular, the Trustees considered that the Adviser may use “soft dollars,” or Fund commissions, to obtain research, and noted in addition to the amount of soft dollars reported that (i) Adviser reports it would select broker-dealers on the basis of best execution, even though some of the broker-dealers it selects also provide research, (ii) the Adviser reports it would only use “soft dollars” within the Section 28(e) safe harbor, which requires the Adviser to determine that the commissions paid were reasonable in relation to the value of the research received, and (iii) the Adviser would use the research received to implement its investment strategy generally, which benefits the Funds as well as the Adviser’s other accounts.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE TRUST AND SNOW CAPITAL MANAGEMENT L.P. (Continued)
After reviewing and considering the foregoing information and other information they deemed relevant with regard to these matters, the Board concluded, in light of all the facts and circumstances, that the other benefits derived by the Adviser from its relationships with the Funds were satisfactory.
Economies of Scale.
The Trustees also considered the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if the Funds grow and whether the advisory fee levels reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of the Funds’ shareholders. In this regard, the Trustees considered the breakpoints in effect on the advisory fee schedule for each of the Funds at various asset levels, which are aimed at sharing with shareholders any economies of scale that are realized from Fund growth.
After considering these factors, the Board concluded, in light of all the facts and circumstances, that the fee levels and breakpoints were satisfactory and adequate to reflect economies of scale for the benefit of the Funds’ shareholders if the Funds grow.
Based on all of the information presented to the Board and its consideration of relevant factors, the Board, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, approved the Investment Advisory Agreement for the initial term, and determined that the compensation payable under each of the agreements was fair, reasonable and within a range of what could have been negotiated at arm’s-length in light of all the surrounding circumstances, including the services to be rendered and such other matters as the Board considered to be relevant.
