| * | The performance data quoted here represents past performance. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted above. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Class A is subject to a maximum applicable sales charge of 4.75%. Total returns are calculated using the net asset value (“NAV”) on September 30, 2021. The returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemptions of Fund shares. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Performance figures for periods greater than 1 year are annualized. The Fund’s manager has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or absorb expenses of the Fund, at least until July 31, 2022, to ensure that the net annual fund operating expenses (excluding brokerage costs; borrowing costs, such as (a) interest and (b) dividends on securities sold short; taxes; costs of investing in underlying funds and extraordinary expenses) will not exceed 1.74%, 2.49% and 1.49% for the Fund’s Class A, Class C, and Class I shares, respectively, subject to possible recoupment from the Fund in future years. Fee waivers and expense reimbursements are subject to possible recoupment by the manager from the Fund in future years on a rolling three-year basis (within three years after the fees have been waived or reimbursed) if such recoupment can be achieved within the foregoing expense limits and any expense limits in place at the time of recoupment. Without these waivers, the Fund’s estimated total annual operating expenses as shown in the June 7, 2021 prospectus for the Fund’s initial fiscal period are 2.12%, 2.87% and 1.87% for the Fund’s Class A, Class C and Class I shares, respectively. After fee waivers, the Fund’s total annual operating expenses shown in the June 7, 2021 prospectus for the Fund’s inital fiscal period are 1.74%, 2.49% and 1.49% for the Fund’s Class A, Class C and Class I shares, respectively. Please review the Fund’s most recent prospectus for more detail on the expense waiver. For more current information on the Fund’s expense ratio, please see the Financial Highlights.

| (1) | ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Mutual Fund Series Trust (the “Trust”), was organized as an Ohio business trust on February 27, 2006. The Trust is registered as an open-end investment management company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). The Trust currently consists of thirty-eight series. These financial statements include the following series: AlphaCentric Income Opportunities Fund, AlphaCentric Premium Opportunity Fund, AlphaCentric Robotics and Automation Fund, AlphaCentric Symmetry Strategy Fund, AlphaCentric LifeSci Healthcare Fund, AlphaCentric Municipal Opportunities Fund and AlphaCentric Strategic Income Fund.

was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of ASIF’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with a mounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
Each Fund offers three classes of shares, Class A, Class C and Class I. Each share class represents an interest in the same assets of the Funds, has the same rights and is identical in all material respects except that (i) each class of shares may bear different distribution fees; (ii) each class of shares may be subject to different (or no) sales charges; (iii) certain other class specific expenses borne solely by the class to which such expenses are attributable; and (iv) each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters relating to its own distribution arrangements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds and are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 - Financial Services – Investment Companies including FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-08.
a) Securities Valuation - Securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last reported sale price at the close of the regular trading session of the exchange on the business day the value is being determined, or in the case of securities listed on NASDAQ, at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). In the absence of a sale, such securities shall be valued at the last bid price on the day of valuation. Debt securities (other than short-term obligations) are valued each day by an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) using methods which include current market quotations from a major market maker in the securities and based on methods which include the consideration of yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type. The Funds may invest in portfolios of open-end or closed-end investment companies (the “underlying funds”). Open-end funds are valued at their respective net asset values as reported by such investment companies. The underlying funds value securities in their portfolios for which market quotations are readily available at their market values (generally the last reported sale price) and all other securities and assets at their fair value by the methods established by the boards of the underlying funds. The shares of many closed-end investment companies, after their initial public offering, frequently trade at a price per share, which is different than the net asset value per share. The difference represents a market premium or market discount of such shares. There can be no assurances that the market discount or market premium on shares of any -closed-end investment company purchased by the Funds will not-change. The independent pricing service does not distinguish between smaller sized bond positions known as “odd lots” and larger institutional sized bond positions known as “round lots”. A Fund may fair value a particular bond if the Manager does not believe that the round lot value provided by the independent pricing service reflects fair value of the Fund’s holding. Short-term debt obligations having 60 days or less remaining until maturity, at time of purchase, may be valued at amortized cost, provided each such valuation represent fair value. Investments in swap contracts are priced daily based on the underlying equity securities held in the swap. Futures and future options are valued at the final settled price or, in the absence of a settled price, at the last sale price on the day of valuation. Options are valued at their closing price on the exchange they are traded on. When no closing price is available, options are valued at their mean price. Swap transactions are valued through an independent pricing service or at fair value based on daily price reporting from the swap counterparty issuing the swap.
Securities traded on a foreign exchange which has not closed by the valuation time or for which the official closing prices are not available at the time the NAV is determined will be valued using alternative market prices provided by a pricing service.
In certain circumstances, instead of valuing securities in the usual manner, the Funds may value securities at “fair value” as determined in good faith by the Board, pursuant to the procedures (the “Procedures”) approved by the Board. The Procedures consider, among others, the following factors to determine a security’s fair value: the nature and pricing history (if any) of the security; whether any dealer quotations for the security are available; and possible valuation methodologies that could be used to determine the fair value of the security. Fair value may also be used by the Board if extraordinary events occur after the close of the relevant world market but prior to the New York Stock Exchange close.
Exchange Traded Funds – The Funds may invest in exchange traded funds (“ETFs”). ETFs are a type of fund bought and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF trades like common stock and represents a fixed portfolio of securities. The risks of owning an ETF generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities they are designed to track, although the potential lack of liquidity on an ETF could result in it being more volatile. Additionally, ETFs have fees and expenses that reduce their value.
The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of most of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument in an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
AlphaCentric Funds |
CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued) |
September 30, 2021 |
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following tables summarize the inputs used as of September 30, 2021 for the Funds’ assets and liabilities measured at fair value:

September 30, 2021 |
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts - As foreign securities are purchased, a Fund generally enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts in order to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risks. The market value of the contract fluctuates with changes in currency exchange rates. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. As foreign currency contracts are sold, a portion of the contract is generally closed and the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Realized gains and losses from contract transactions are included as a component of net realized gains (losses) from foreign currency contracts in the Statements of Operations.
Foreign Currency – Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchased and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. Each Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period-end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
Futures Contracts – Each Fund may purchase and sell futures contracts. A Fund may use futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against changes in the value of equities, interest rates or foreign currencies. Upon entering into a contract, a Fund deposits and maintains as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is affected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as “variation margin” and are recorded by the Fund as unrealized gains and losses. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. As collateral for futures contracts, the Fund is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect the market value of the purchase obligation for long futures contracts or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract, but not less than the market price at which the futures contract was established, for short futures contracts. For the six months ended September 30, 2021, APOF, ASSF and AMOF invested in futures contracts.
Swap Agreements – The Funds that invest in swaps are subject to equity price risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, currency risk, counterparty risk and/or commodity risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. The Funds may enter into various swap transactions for investment purposes or to manage interest rate, equity, foreign exchange (currency), or credit risk. These would be two-party contracts entered into primarily to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of returns) earned or realized on particular pre-determined investments or instruments.
The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between 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 or market segment. Changes in the value of swap agreements are recognized as unrealized gains or losses in the Statements of Operations by “marking to market” on a daily basis to reflect the value of the swap agreement at the end of each trading day. Payments received or paid at the beginning of the agreement are reflected as such on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and may be referred to as upfront payments. The Funds amortize upfront payments and/or accrue for the fixed payment stream on swap agreements on a daily basis with the net amount recorded as a component of unrealized gain or loss on the Statements of Operations. Periodic payments and receipts and liquidation payments received or made at the termination of the swap agreement are recorded as realized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations. The Funds segregate liquid securities having a value at least equal to the amount of their current obligation under any swap transaction. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, lack of liquidity and elements of credit, market, and counterparty risk in excess of amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. A Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the discounted net value of the cash flows to be received from the counterparty over the contract’s remaining life, to the extent that that amount is positive. During the six months ended September 30, 2021, ASSF was invested in a credit default swap contract and realized a gain of $34,539. During the six months ended September 30, 2021, AMOF was invested in a credit default swap contract with a realized gain of $24,625. For the six months ended September 30, 2021, there were no other Funds invested in swap contracts.
Accounting for Options - The Funds are subject to equity price risks in the normal course of pursuing their investment objective and may purchase or sell options to help hedge against risk. When the Funds write a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option. If an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or if the Funds enter into a closing purchase transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a written put option is exercised, the purchase cost of the underlying security is reduced by the premium originally received. If a written call option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized for the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from the

sale are increased by the premium originally received. As writer of an option, the Funds have no control over whether the option will be exercised and, as a result, retain the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
Certain Funds may purchase put and call options. Put options are purchased to hedge against a decline in the value of securities held in a Fund’s portfolio. If such a decline occurs, the put options will permit the Funds to sell the securities underlying such options at the exercise price, or to close out the options at a profit. The premium paid for a put or call option plus any transaction costs will reduce the benefit, if any, realized by the Funds upon exercise of the option, and, unless the price of the underlying security rises or declines sufficiently, the option may expire worthless to the Funds. In addition, in the event that the price of the security in connection with which an option was purchased moves in a direction favorable to the Funds, the benefits realized by the Funds as a result of such favorable movement will be reduced by the amount of the premium paid for the option and related transaction costs. Written and purchased options are non-income producing securities. With purchased options, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Funds since these options are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded options, guarantees against a possible default. Initial margin deposits required upon entering into options contracts are satisfied by the deposits of cash as collateral for the account of the broker (the Funds’ agent in acquiring the options). For the six months ended September 30, 2021, APOF invested in options.

The value of derivative instruments outstanding as of September 30, 2021 as disclosed in the Schedule of Investments and the amounts realized and changes in unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments during the six months ended September 30, 2021, as disclosed above and within the Statements of Operations serve as indicators of the volume of derivative activity for the APOF, ASSF and AMOF.
b) Federal Income Tax – The Funds qualify as regulated investment companies and to comply with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and to distribute substantially all of their taxable income to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provisions are required.
During the six months and period ended September 30, 2021, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax expense. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax expense as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations as incurred. As of September 30, 2021, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years ended March 31, 2019 to March 31, 2021, or expected to be taken in the Funds’ March 31, 2022 year-end tax return. The tax filings are open for examination by applicable taxing authorities, including the Internal Revenue Service. No examination of the Funds’ filings is presently in progress.
c) Distribution to Shareholders – Distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from GAAP, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid at least annually for APOF, ARAF, ASSF and ALHF. AIOF, AMOF and ASIF make monthly dividend distributions from net investment income. Distributable net realized gains, if any, are declared and distributed annually.
d) Multiple Class Allocations – Income, non-class specific expenses and realized/unrealized gains or losses are allocated to each class based on relative net assets. Expenses of the Trust that are directly identifiable to a specific Fund are charged to that Fund. Expenses, which are not readily identifiable to a specific Fund, are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative sizes of the Funds in the Trust. Distribution fees are charged to each respective share class in accordance with the distribution plan.
e) Other – Investment and shareholder transactions are recorded on the trade date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized on securities purchased over the lives of the respective securities utilizing the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains or losses from sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds. Withholding taxes and capital gains on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.
f) 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
AlphaCentric Funds |
CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued) |
September 30, 2021 |
statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
g) Commitments and Contingencies – In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, management considers the risk of loss from such claims to be remote.
h) Sales charges (loads) – A maximum sales charge of 5.75% is imposed on Class A shares of the APOF, ARAF, ASSF, and ALHF. A maximum sales charge of 4.75% is imposed on Class A shares of AIOF, AMOF ASIF.
As of September 30, 2021, all costs incurred by each Fund in connection with their offering are payable by the Manager pursuant to an Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement. Such expenses paid by the Manager are subject to reimbursement within three years of the fiscal year during which they were incurred.
i) Short Sales – The Funds may sell securities short. A short sale is a transaction in which the Funds sell securities they do not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities. To deliver the securities to the buyer, the Funds must arrange through a broker to borrow the securities and, in so doing, the Funds become obligated to replace the securities borrowed at their market price at the time of replacement, whatever that price may be. The Funds will make a profit or incur a loss as a result of a short sale depending on whether the price of the securities decrease or increase between the date of the short sale and the date on which the Funds purchased the securities to replace the borrowed securities that have been sold.
j) Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Funds consider their investment in a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured interest bearing savings account to be cash. The Funds maintain cash balances, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Funds maintain these balances with a high quality financial institution.
Consolidation of Subsidiaries – ACSSF Fund Limited (“ASSF-CFC”) – The Consolidated Financial Statements of ASSF include the accounts of ASSF-CFC, which is a wholly-owned and controlled foreign subsidiary. ASSF consolidates the results of subsidiaries in which ASSF holds a controlling economic interest. Controlling economic interest is generally deemed to exist with investment interests comprising greater than 50% of the net asset value of the subsidiary. However, ASSF may also consider qualitative aspects of control in determining if a controlling economic interest exists. These qualitative control considerations include the nature and organizational structure of the investment, as well as ASSF’s ability to control the circumstances leading to majority ownership. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
ASSF may invest up to 25% of its total assets in a controlled foreign corporation (“CFC”), which acts as an investment vehicle in order to effect certain investments consistent with the ASSF’s investment objectives and policies.
A summary of the ASSF’s investments in the ASSF-CFC is as follows:
| | Inception Date | | ASSF-CFC’s Net Assets | | | % of Net Assets at |
| | of ASSF-CFC | | at September 30, 2021 | | | September 30, 2021 |
ASSF-CFC | | 8/8/2019 | | $ | 5,727,421 | | | 14.16% |
The CFC utilizes commodity-based derivative products to facilitate ASSF’s pursuit of its investment objectives. In accordance with its investment objectives and through their exposure to the aforementioned commodity-based derivative products, ASSF may have increased or decreased exposure to one or more of the following risk factors defined below:
Taxation Risk - By investing in commodities indirectly through a CFC, ASSF obtains exposure to the commodities markets within the federal tax requirements that apply to the ASSF.
For tax purposes, the CFC is an exempted Cayman investment company. The CFC has received an undertaking from the Government of the Cayman Islands exempting it from all local income, profits and capital gains taxes. No such taxes are levied in the Cayman Islands at the present time. For U.S. income tax purposes, the CFC is a Controlled Foreign Corporation which generates and is allocated no income which is considered effectively connected with U.S. trade or business and as such is not subject to U.S. income tax. However, as a wholly-owned Controlled Foreign Corporation, ASSF-CFC’s net income and capital gain, to the extent of its earnings and profits, will be included each year in the ASSF’s investment company taxable income.

Trustees who are not “interested persons” as that term is defined in the 1940 Act, are paid a quarterly retainer and receive compensation for each special in-person meeting attended. The fees paid to the Independent Trustees for their attendance at a meeting will be shared equally by the funds of the Trust in which the meeting relates. The Lead Independent Trustee of the Trust and the Chairman of the Trust’s Audit Committee receives an additional quarterly retainer. The “interested persons” of the Trust receive no compensation from the Funds. The Trust reimburses each Trustee and Officer for his or her travel and other expenses related to attendance at such meetings.

Certain officers of the Trust are also employees of GFS and MFund, and are not paid any fees directly by the Trust for serving in such capacity.

The fee may be used for a variety of purposes, including compensating dealers and other financial service organizations for eligible services provided by those parties to the Funds and their shareholders and to reimburse Northern Lights Distributors, LLC (“NLD”) and Manager for distribution related expenses.

Tax equalization allows a Fund to treat as distribution that portion of redemption proceeds representing a redeeming shareholder’s portion of undistributed taxable and net capital gains. The APOF utilized equalization in the amount of $1,603,446 which resulted in a difference between tax distributions and book distributions as disclosed on the Statement of Changes for the year ended March 31, 2021. Net investment income and net realized gains, as disclosed on the Statements of Operations and net assets were not affected by these reclassifications.
As of March 31, 2021, the components of accumulated earnings/(deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

The difference between book basis and tax basis undistributed net investment income, accumulated net realized gains, and unrealized appreciation from investments is primarily attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, mark-to-market on open futures, options, swaps contracts and passive foreign investment companies, and the ASSF Fund’s wholly owned subsidiary.
The unrealized appreciation in the table above includes unrealized foreign currency gains(losses) of $923, $2,104 and $(101) for ARAF, ASSF, and ALHF, respectively.
Late year losses incurred after December 31 within the fiscal year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax purposes. The ARAF incurred and elected to defer such late year losses of $38,484.
Capital losses incurred after October 31 within the fiscal year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax purposes. The AIOF incurred and elected to defer such capital losses of $2,242,541.

| (8) | UNDERLYING INVESTMENT IN OTHER INVESTMENT COMPANIES |
APOF currently invests a significant portion of its assets in the First American Government Obligations Fund, Class U (“FGUXX”). The Fund may redeem its investment in FGUXX at any time if the Manager determines that it is in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders to do so. The Fund’s performance will be directly affected by the performance of FGUXX. The financial statements of FGUXX, including the portfolio of investments, can be found on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website www.sec.gov and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements. As of September 30, 2021, the Fund owns 83.6% of FGUXX.
The Funds in the normal course of business make investments in financial instruments and derivatives where the risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market or failure or inability of the counterparty to a transaction to perform. See below for a detailed description of select principal risks.
Each underlying fund, including each ETF, is subject to specific risks, depending on the nature of the underlying fund. These risks could include liquidity risk, sector risk, foreign and related currency risk, as well as risks associated with real estate investments and commodities. Investors in the Funds will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the underlying investment companies in which the Funds invest in addition to the Funds’ direct fees and expenses.
Wholly-Owned Subsidiary Risk: Each CFC is not registered under the 1940 Act and is not be subject to all of the investor protections of the 1940 Act. Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands, under which each Fund and CFC, respectively, are organized, could result in the inability of each Fund and/or CFC to operate as described in the Prospectus and could negatively affect each Fund and their shareholders. Your cost of investing in a Fund will be higher because you indirectly bear the expenses of its CFC.

Credit Risk: There is a risk that issuers and counterparties will not make payments on securities and other investments held by a Fund, resulting in losses to the Funds. In addition, the credit quality of securities held by a Fund may be lowered if an issuer’s financial condition changes. Lower credit quality may lead to greater volatility in the price of a security and in shares of the Fund. Lower credit quality also may affect liquidity and make it difficult for a Fund to sell the security. The Funds may invest, directly or indirectly, in high yield fixed-income securities (also known as “junk bonds”), which are considered speculative with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the obligations. This means that, compared to issuers of higher rated securities, issuers of medium and lower rated securities are less likely to have the capacity to pay interest and repay principal when due in the event of adverse business, financial or economic conditions and/or may be in default or not current in the payment of interest or principal. The market values of medium- and lower-rated securities tend to be more sensitive to company-specific developments and changes in economic conditions than higher-rated securities. The companies that issue these securities often are highly leveraged, and their ability to service their debt obligations during an economic downturn or periods of rising interest rates may be impaired. In addition, these companies may not have access to more traditional methods of financing, and may be unable to repay debt at maturity by refinancing. The risk of loss due to default in payment of interest or principal by these issuers is significantly greater than with higher-rated securities because medium- and lower-rated securities generally are unsecured and subordinated to senior debt. Default, or the market’s perception that an issuer is likely to default, could reduce the value and liquidity of securities held by a Fund. In addition, default may cause a Fund to incur expenses in seeking recovery of principal or interest on its portfolio holdings.
Swap Counterparty Credit Risk: The Funds are subject to credit risk on the amount the Funds expect to receive from swap agreement counterparties. With certain exchange traded credit default swaps, there is minimal counterparty risk to a Fund in that the exchanges clearinghouse, as counter party, guarantees against default.
Commodity Risk: Investing in the commodities markets may subject the Funds to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. Commodity prices may be influenced by unfavorable weather, animal and plant disease, geologic and environmental factors as well as changes in government regulation such as tariffs, embargoes or burdensome production rules and restrictions.
Foreign Currency Risk: Currency trading risks include market risk, credit risk and country risk. Market risk results from adverse changes in exchange rates in the currencies the Fund is long or short. Credit risk results because a currency-trade counterparty may default. Country risk arises because a government may interfere with transactions in its currency.
Foreign Exchanges Risk: A portion of the derivatives trades made by the Funds may take place on foreign markets. Neither existing CFTC regulations nor regulations of any other U.S. governmental agency apply to transactions on foreign markets. Some of these foreign markets, in contrast to U.S. exchanges, are so-called principals’ markets in which performance is the responsibility only of the individual counterparty with whom the trader has entered into a commodity interest transaction and not of the exchange or clearing corporation. In these kinds of markets, there is risk of bankruptcy or other failure or refusal to perform by the counterparty.
Fixed Income Risk: When the Funds invest in fixed income securities, the value of your investment in each will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities owned by the Funds. In general, the market price of fixed income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default) and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). If the U.S. Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) raises the federal funds interest rate target, interest rates across the U.S. financial system may rise. However, the magnitude of rate changes across maturities and borrower sectors is uncertain. Rising rates may decrease liquidity and increase volatility, which may make portfolio management more difficult and costly to each Fund and its shareholders. Additionally, default risk increases if issuers must borrow at higher rates. These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by each Fund, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments.
Futures and Forwards Contract Risk: For APOF, ASSF and AMOF the successful use of futures contracts draws upon the Manager’s skill and experience with respect to such instruments and are subject to special risk considerations. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are (a) the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the instruments held by the Fund and the price of the forward or futures contract; (b) possible lack of a liquid secondary market for a forward or futures contract and the resulting inability to close a forward or futures contract when desired; (c) losses caused by unanticipated market movements, which are potentially unlimited; (d) the Manager’s inability to predict correctly the direction of securities prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates and other economic factors; (e) the possibility that the counterparty will default in the performance of its obligations; and (f) if the Fund has insufficient cash, it may have to sell securities from its portfolio to meet daily variation margin requirements, and the Fund may have to sell securities at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so.
Derivatives Risk: APOF, ASSF and AMOF may use derivatives (including options, futures, forwards, swaps and options on futures) to enhance returns or hedge against market declines. Each Fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the
AlphaCentric Funds |
CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued) |
September 30, 2021 |
value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. Derivative prices are highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially during a short period of time. Such prices are influenced by numerous factors that affect the markets, including, but not limited to: changing supply and demand relationships; government programs and policies; national and international political and economic events, changes in interest rates, inflation and deflation and changes in supply and demand relationships.
Options Risk: There are risks associated with the sale and purchase of call and put options. As the seller (writer) of a covered call option, APOF assumes the risk of a decline in the market price of the underlying security below the purchase price of the underlying security less the premium received, and gives up the opportunity for gain on the underlying security above the exercise option price. As the buyer of a put or call option, the Fund risks losing the entire premium invested in the option if the Fund does not exercise the option. As a seller (writer) of a put option, the Fund will lose money if the value of the security falls below the strike price. If unhedged, the Fund’s written calls exposes it to potentially unlimited losses.
Market Risk: Overall market risks may also affect the value of the Funds. The market values of securities or other investments owned by the Funds will go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. Factors such as economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, exchange rates and political events affect the securities markets. Changes in market conditions and interest rates generally do not have the same impact on all types of securities and instruments. Unexpected local, regional or global events and their aftermath, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; climate-change or climate-related events the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues; recessions and depressions; or other tragedies, catastrophes and events could have a significant impact on the Funds and their investments and could result in increased premiums or discounts to a Fund’s net asset value, and may impair market liquidity, thereby increasing liquidity risk. Such events can cause investor fear and panic, which can adversely affect the economies of many companies, sectors, nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. The Funds could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns. During a general market downturn, multiple asset classes may be negatively affected. In times of severe market disruptions, you could lose your entire investment.
LIBOR Risk: Changes in the level of LIBOR will affect the amount of interest payable on the LIBOR-based floating rate debt instruments, and it is impossible to predict whether LIBOR will rise or fall. A decline in the level of LIBOR would likely result in a reduction of interest collections on such debt instruments, which would have an adverse effect on the return of the Fund. Some floating rate debt instruments held by the Fund may have LIBOR floors (or minimum interest rate to which the spread or margin is added, to calculate the debt instrument’s overall interest rate), but there is no guarantee that any such LIBOR floor will fully mitigate the risk of falling LIBOR.
The UK Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”) and LIBOR’s administrator, ICE Benchmark Administration (the “IBA”), have announced that most LIBOR settings will no longer be published after the end of 2021 and a majority of U.S. dollar LIBOR settings will no longer be published after June 30, 2023. Not all LIBOR-based instruments have an alternative to LIBOR and there is significant uncertainty regarding the effectiveness of alternative methodologies and the potential for market instability. These matters may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported benchmark rates, benchmark rates being more volatile than they have been in the past, and/or fewer debt instruments utilizing given benchmark rates as a component of interest payments. Additionally, in connection with the adoption of another benchmark as a replacement for LIBOR in a debt instrument’s documentation, the interest rate (or method for calculating the interest rate) applicable to that debt instrument may be modified to account for differences between LIBOR and the applicable replacement benchmark used to calculate the rate of interest payable in respect of that instrument, which modification may be based on industry-accepted spread adjustments or recommendations from various governmental and non-governmental bodies. Because of the uncertainty regarding the nature of any replacement rate, the Fund cannot reasonably estimate the impact of the anticipated transition away from LIBOR at this time. If the LIBOR replacement rate is lower than market expectations, there could be an adverse impact on the value of debt instruments with floating or fixed-to-floating rate coupons and, in turn, a material adverse impact on the value of the Funds.
Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for a full listing of risks associated with the investments.
ARAF has entered into a Securities Lending Agreement with the US Bank NA (“US Bank”). ARAF can lend its securities to brokers, dealers and other financial institutions approved by the Board to earn additional income. The cash collateral is invested in short-term investments as noted in the ARAF’s Portfolio of Investments. ARAF also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Loans are collateralized at a value at least equal to 105% of the then current market value of any loaned security that are foreign, or 102% of the then current market value of any other loaned security. All interest and dividend payments received on securities which are held on loan, provided that there is no material default, will be paid to the ARAF. A portion of the income generated by the investment in the ARAF’s collateral, net of any rebates paid by US Bank to the borrowers is remitted to US Bank as lending agent and the remainder is paid to ARAF.
Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the ARAF could experience a delay in recovering their securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them. Should the borrower of the securities fail financially, ARAF has the right to repurchase the securities using the collateral in the open market.

ARAF receives cash as collateral in return for securities lent as part of the securities lending program. The collateral is invested in the Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC of which the investment objective is to seek to maximize current income to the extent with the preservation of capital and liquidity and maintain a stable NAV of $1.00 per unit. ARAF held $ 5,785,301 as of September 30, 2021. The remaining contractual maturity of all securities lending transactions is overnight and continuous. ARAF is not subject to a master netting agreement with respect to securities lending; therefore no additional disclosures are required. The income earned by ARAF on investments of cash collateral received from borrowers for the securities loaned to them are reflected in the ARAF’s Statement of Operations.

On July 30, 2020, an investor in the AIOF (the “Fund”) filed a putative class action in Florida state court, naming the Manager, the Trust, and others as defendants. Plaintiff alleges that AIOF misrepresented that it held no more than 15% of its assets in illiquid securities, among other things, and asserts violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The Florida action was dismissed with prejudice on September 22, 2021. On October 14, 2020, the same Plaintiff filed a nearly identical putative class action in New York state court against the same defendants. That complaint was amended on February 26, 2021, which added two additional defendants, including sub-advisor Garrison Point LLC. On May 20, 2020, defendants moved to dismiss the New York action for failure to allege any material misrepresentations or omissions, among other things. We believe this lawsuit is meritless and intend to contest it vigorously.
| (12) | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS AND REPORTING UPDATES |
In March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (’‘ASU 2020-04’’). The amendments in ASU 2020-04 provide optional temporary financial reporting relief from the effect of certain types of contract modifications due to the planned discontinuation of LIBOR and other interbank-offered based reference rates as of the end of 2021. ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any of applying this ASU.
In October 2020, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted new regulations governing the use of derivative by registered investment companies (“Rule 18f-4”). Rule 18f-4 will impose limits on the amount of derivatives a Fund can enter into, eliminate the asset segregation framework currently used by funds to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act, and require funds whose use of derivatives is greater than a limited specified amount to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives risk management program and appoint a derivatives risk manager. Funds will be required to comply with Rule 18f-4 by August 19, 2022. It is not currently clear what impact, if any, Rule 18f-4 will have on the availability, liquidity or performance of derivatives. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of Rule 18f-4 on the Funds. When fully implemented, Rule 18f-4 may require changes in how a Fund uses derivatives, adversely affect the Fund’s performance and increase costs related to the Funds’ use of derivatives.
Subsequent events after the date of the Statements of Assets and Liabilities have been evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued. Management has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

EXPENSE EXAMPLES (Unaudited) |
September 30, 2021 |
As a shareholder of one or more of the AlphaCentric Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases of Class A shares; (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a 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 from April 1, 2021 through September 30, 2021.
Actual Expenses
The “Actual” columns in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, 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 table 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 “Hypothetical” columns in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the AlphaCentric Funds’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not either Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balances or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of 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), or redemption fees. Therefore, 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.

Consideration and Approval of the Management Agreement between the Trust and AlphaCentric Advisors, LLC with respect to AlphaCentric Strategic Income Fund
At its regular meeting held on February 19, 2021, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Mutual Fund Series Trust (the ��Trust”), including a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, considered, discussed, and approved the management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) between the Trust and AlphaCentric Advisors, LLC (“AlphaCentric”), with respect to AlphaCentric Strategic Income Fund (“AlphaCentric SI”) .
The Board was assisted by legal counsel throughout the review process. The Board relied upon the advice of legal counsel and its own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating the Management Agreement and weighing each factor to be considered. The conclusions reached by the Board was based on a comprehensive evaluation and discussion of all of the information provided and were not the result of any one factor. Moreover, each Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to approving the Management Agreement. In connection with its deliberations regarding renewal of the Management Agreement, the Board reviewed materials prepared by AlphaCentric.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board considered its significant experience with AlphaCentric as advisor to several other series of the Trust, and its strong working relationship with AlphaCentric and its personnel. It noted that AlphaCentric would monitor AlphaCentric SI’s sub-advisor, review AlphaCentric SI’s portfolio on a regular basis, and actively work with the Trust’s chief compliance officer to monitor for regulator compliance. The Board noted that AlphaCentric employed a risk management team to assess and monitor portfolio risk, which would include evaluating AlphaCentric SI’s performance with respect to volatility, drawdowns and returns relative to its investment objective. The Board acknowledged AlphaCentric’s extensive experience overseeing sub-advisors. After discussion, the Board concluded that AlphaCentric had the potential to provide high quality services to AlphaCentric SI and its shareholders.
Performance. The Board noted that the sub-advisor would be primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of AlphaCentric SI’s portfolio. The Board noted that AlphaCentric had demonstrated, as evidenced by the other series of the Trust it managed, that it had the ability to successfully manage and oversee sub-advisors ensuring compliance with portfolio restrictions and limitations. The Board further noted that AlphaCentric’s track record of managing mutual funds gave the Board confidence that AlphaCentric Would provide value to shareholders as advisor to AlphaCentric SI
Fees and Expenses. The Board noted that the 1.50% management fee for AlphaCentric SI was highest of its peer group and equal to the high of the Nontraditional Bond Morningstar category. The Board discussed that the 1.75% net expense ratio for AlphaCentric SI was higher

than the average and median of its peer group and Morningstar categories, but lower than the highs of each. The Board discussed the level of expertise and skill required to manage a fund like AlphaCentric SI given its broad set of real estate securities and the constant changes in market dynamics and agreed that such skill level justified a higher management fee. The Board discussed the allocation of fees and responsibilities between AlphaCentric and AlphaCentric SI’s sub-advisor and agreed that the allocation was appropriate. The Board concluded that the proposed management fee for AlphaCentric SI was not unreasonable.
Profitability. The Board reviewed a profitability analysis provided by AlphaCentric and noted that it anticipated realizing a reasonable profit in connection with its relationship with AlphaCentric SI during the first two years of the Management Agreement. The Board considered that the projected level of profit appeared to be within industry averages. After discussion, the Board agreed that the projected profits were not excessive.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered whether there would be economies of scale with respect to the management of AlphaCentric SI and noted that AlphaCentric was not inclined to offer fee concessions at this time due in part to the high (and continuously increasing) costs of sponsoring mutual funds as well as the business and financial risks assumed by AlphaCentric when managing a mutual fund, and the cost of the sub-adviser. The Board noted material economies were not anticipated to be reached during the initial period of the Management Agreement and agreed that the matter of economies of scale would be revisited at the time of the Management Agreement’s renewal if AlphaCentric SI’s size materially increased.
Conclusion. Having requested and received such information from AlphaCentric as the Board believed to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Management Agreement, and as assisted by the advice of counsel, the Board concluded that the fee structure for AlphaCentric SI was reasonable and that approval of the Management Agreement was in the best interests of AlphaCentric SI and its future shareholders.

Consideration and Approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement between AlphaCentric Advisors, LLC and Strategos Fund Management, LLC (nka Goshen Rock Capital, LLC) with respect to AlphaCentric Strategic Income Fund
At its regular meeting held on February 19, 2021, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Mutual Fund Series Trust (the “Trust”), including a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, considered, discussed, and approved the sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) between AlphaCentric Advisors, LLC (“AlphaCentric”) and Strategos Fund Management, LLC (nka Goshen Rock Capital, LLC) (the “Sub-Advisor”), with respect to AlphaCentric Strategic Income Fund (“AlphaCentric SI”) .
The Board was assisted by legal counsel throughout the review process. The Board relied upon the advice of legal counsel and its own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating the Sub-Advisory Agreement and weighing each factor to be considered. The conclusions reached by the Board was based on a comprehensive evaluation and discussion of all of the information provided and were not the result of any one factor. Moreover, each Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to approving the Sub-Advisory Agreement. In connection with its deliberations regarding renewal of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board reviewed materials prepared by AlphaCentric.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board observed that the key personnel from the Sub-Advisor had extensive investment industry experience. The Board discussed that the Sub-Advisor would be responsible for the implementation of AlphaCentric SI’s investment strategy including the determination of investment decisions and execution of transactions for AlphaCentric SI. The Board noted that the Sub-Advisor would utilize written portfolio guidelines and internal models to ensure compliance with the AlphaCentric SI’s investment limitations. The Board remarked that the Sub-Advisor’s investment team conducted portfolio surveillance and security level stress testing on an ongoing basis, and that its risk committee monitored a wide range of known and potential investment risks. The Board considered that the Sub-Advisor would choose brokers-dealers upon approval of its chief compliance officer who reviewed them for best execution after taking into account their facilities, reliability and financial responsibility among other things. The Board acknowledged that the Sub-Advisor planned to bind errors and omission insurance coverage. The Board agreed that the Sub-Advisor had the experience and resource necessary to provide quality services to AlphaCentric SI.
Performance. The Board reviewed the performance information presented by the Sub-Advisor’s portfolio managers. The Board noted that the predecessor fund to AlphaCentric SI managed by the Sub-Advisor had significantly outperformed the Credit Suisse Hedge Fund Index over the 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year and since inception periods. The Board agreed that the Sub-Advisor had the potential to deliver favorable performance results for AlphaCentric SI shareholders.
Fees and Expenses. The Board noted that the Sub-Advisor would receive 50% of the 1.50% net asset advisor fee for AlphaCentric SI. The Board noted that the maximum sub-advisory fee of 0.75% was below the average for other accounts managed by the Sub-Advisor. The Board discussed the allocation of fees between AlphaCentric and the Sub-Advisor relative to their respective duties and agreed that the allocation was appropriate. The Board noted that the allocation of fees between AlphaCentric and the Sub-Advisor was the product of an arm’s length negotiation between the parties. After further discussion, the Board concluded that the sub-advisory fee to be charged with respect to AlphaCentric SI was not unreasonable and the sub-advisory fee, in relation to the total advisory fee, was not unreasonable.
Profitability. The Board reviewed a profitability analysis provided by the Sub-Advisor and noted that it anticipated realizing a profit in connection with its relationship with AlphaCentric SI during the first and second year of the Sub-Advisory Agreement. After further discussion, the Board agreed that the projected profits were not excessive.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered whether there would be economies of scale with respect to the management of the Sub-Advisor. The Board agreed that this was primarily an advisor level issue and had been considered with respect to the overall management agreement, taking into consideration the impact of the sub-advisory expense.
Conclusions. Having requested and received such information from the Sub-Advisor as the Board believed to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, and as assisted by the advice of counsel, the Board concluded that the fee structure was reasonable and that approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the future shareholders of AlphaCentric SI.
