NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | |
August 31, 2012 (unaudited) | |

NOTE 1-ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The DGHM All-Cap Value Fund and the DGHM V2000 SmallCap Value Fund (the “Funds”) are series of the DGHM Investment Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust was organized as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a diversified open-end management company. The DGHM All-Cap Value (“All-Cap Fund”) and DGHM V2000 SmallCap Value (“SmallCap Fund”) Funds commenced operations on June 20, 2007 and June 30, 2010, respectively.
The investment objectives of the Funds are to provide long-term capital appreciation through investments that Dalton, Greiner, Hartman, Maher & Co., LLC, the Funds’ investment advisor (“Advisor”), believes are undervalued.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Security Valuation
The Funds’ securities are valued at current market prices. Investments traded on a principal exchange (U.S. or foreign) or included in the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the last reported sales price on the exchange on which the securities are traded as of the close of business on the last day of the period or, lacking any sales, at the last available bid price. In cases where securities are traded on more than one exchange, the securities are valued on the exchange designated by or under the authority of the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”). Short-term debt securities (less than 60 days to maturity) are valued at their fair market value using amortized cost. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the last available sale price in the over-the-counter market prior to time of valuation. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the most recent bid price. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued on a consistent basis at fair value as determined in good faith under procedures approved by the Funds’ Trustees. Fair value pricing may be used, for example, in situations where (i) a portfolio security is so thinly traded that there have been no transactions for that security over an extended period of time; (ii) the exchange on which the portfolio security is principally traded closes early; or (iii) trading of the portfolio security is halted during the day and does not resume prior to the Fund’s net asset value calculation. A portfolio security’s “fair value” price may differ from the price next available for that portfolio security using the Funds’ normal pricing procedures. Investment companies are valued at net asset value. If values of foreign securities have been materially affected by events occurring after the close of a foreign market, foreign securities may be valued by another method that the Trustees believe reflects fair value. Generally, trading in corporate bonds, U.S. government securities and money market instruments is substantially completed each day at various times before the scheduled close of the New York Stock Exchange. The value of these securities used in computing the Funds’ net asset value is determined as of such times.
In accordance with GAAP, “fair value” is defined as the price that a fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. Various inputs are used in determining the value of a fund’s investments. GAAP established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to establish a classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable market-based inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of August 31, 2012:
| | | | | Level 2 | | Level 3 | | | | |
| Level 1 | | Other Significant | | Significant | | | | |
| Quoted Prices | | Observable Inputs | | Unobservable Inputs | | | Total | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Refer to the Funds’ Schedules of Investments for a listing of securities by security type and industry. The Funds held no Level 3 securities at any time during the period. There were no transfers between levels during the six months ended August 31, 2012.
Security Transactions and Income
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The cost of securities sold is determined generally on a specific identification basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes amortization of discounts and premiums.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents, if any, consist of overnight deposits with the custodian bank which earn interest at the current market rate.
Accounting Estimates
In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management makes 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 increases and decreases in the net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Federal Income Taxes
The Funds intend to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders. The Funds also intend to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that they will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains. Therefore, no federal income tax or excise tax provision is required.
The Funds recognize tax benefits on certain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming investigation from tax authorities. Management has reviewed the Funds’ tax positions and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions expected to be taken in the Funds’ 2012 tax returns. The Funds have no examinations in progress and management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The All-Cap Fund’s Federal tax returns filed in the three-year period ended February 29, 2012 and the SmallCap Fund’s Federal tax return for the period ended February 28, 2011 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Interest and penalties, if any, associated with any federal or state income tax obligations, are recorded as income tax expense.
Reclassification of Capital Accounts
GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of August 31, 2012, there were no such reclassifications in the All-Cap Fund or the SmallCap Fund.
Class Net Asset Values and Expenses
Each Fund can offer three classes of shares: Investor Shares, Class C and Institutional Class shares. Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets of the Funds, and the classes are identical except for differences in their sales charge structures, ongoing distribution and service fees, shareholder servicing and reports fees and transfer agent fees. Income, expenses (other than distribution and service fees, shareholder servicing and reports fees and transfer agent fees), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based upon its relative net assets. All classes have equal voting privileges, except where otherwise required by law or when the Board of Trustees determines that the matter to be voted on affects only the interests of the shareholders of a particular class. The Class C shares are subject to a 1% contingent deferred sales charge on proceeds that are redeemed within one year of the purchase date. The contingent deferred sales charge is payable to the Distributor of the Trust. Class C shares automatically convert into Investor Shares after seven years. As of August 31, 2012, there were no Class C shares of SmallCap Fund outstanding.
NOTE 2-INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Pursuant to Investment Advisory Agreements, the Advisor provides investment advisory services for an annual fee of 0.65% on the average daily net assets of the All-Cap Fund and 0.80% on the average daily net assets of the SmallCap Fund. For the six months ended August 31, 2012, the Advisor earned $410,869 in advisory fees from the All-Cap Fund. As of August 31, 2012, the Advisor was due $60,493 from the All-Cap Fund. For the six months ended August 31, 2012, the Advisor earned and waived $1,303 in advisory fees from the SmallCap Fund.
In the interest of limiting the operating expenses of the Funds, the Advisor has contractually agreed to waive or reduce its fees and to assume other expenses of the Funds through June 30, 2013, if necessary, in amounts that limit the Funds’ total operating expenses to 1.50% and 1.65% of average daily net assets of the All-Cap Fund and the SmallCap Fund, respectively. The limit does not apply to interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, other expenditures capitalized in accordance with GAAP, other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business, dividend expense on short sales and amounts, if any, payable pursuant to a plan adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. In determining each Fund’s total operating expenses, expenses that the Fund would have incurred but did not actually pay because of expense offset or brokerage/services arrangements shall be added to the aggregate expenses so as not to benefit the Advisor. Additionally, fees reimbursed to the Funds relating to brokerage/services arrangements shall not be taken into account in determining the Funds’ total operating expenses so as to benefit the Advisor. Finally, these expense limitation arrangements exclude any “acquired fund fees and expenses” as that term is described in the prospectus of the Funds. In addition, the Advisor may be entitled to reimbursement of fees waived or remitted by the Advisor to the Funds after March 1, 2009. The total amount of reimbursement shall be the sum of all fees previously waived or reduced by the Advisor and all other payments remitted by the Advisor to the Funds during any of the previous three fiscal years (beginning March 1, 2009), less any reimbursement previously paid by the Funds to the Advisor with respect to such waivers, reductions and payments. Amounts reimbursed may not cause the Funds to exceed expense limits that were in place at the time such fees and expenses were waived and/or reimbursed. As of August 31, 2012, there were no fee waivers or reimbursements eligible for reimbursement to the Advisor pertaining to the All-Cap Fund. For the six months ended August 31, 2012, the Advisor earned and waived $1,303 in advisory fees and reimbursed expenses of $20,774 for the SmallCap Fund. At August 31, 2012, the Fund was due $3,777 from the Advisor. The total amount of recoverable reimbursements as of August 31, 2012 was $236,647 and expires as follows:
| 2014 | | | $ 75,763 |
| 2015 | | | 138,807 |
| 2016 | | | 22,077 |
| | | | |
| | | | $236,647 |
| | | | |
The Funds have adopted plans of distribution in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (each a “Plan” and collectively, the “Plans”). Pursuant to the Plans, the Funds compensate the Funds’ principal underwriter for services rendered and expenses borne in connection with activities primarily intended to result in the sale of the Funds’ shares. The Plans provide that the Funds will pay the annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Funds’ Investor Shares and up to 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Funds’ Class C Shares for activities primarily intended to result in the sale of those shares. These activities include reimbursement to entities for providing distribution and shareholder servicing with respect to the Funds’ shares. The 0.25% fee for the Investor Shares is a service fee. The 1.00% fee for the Class C Shares is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and a 0.75% distribution fee. The All-Cap Fund incurred $88,707 and $23,156, in 12b-1 fees under the Plans with respect to Investor Shares and Class C Shares, respectively, for the six months ended August 31, 2012. The SmallCap Fund incurred $122 in 12b-1 fees under the Plans with respect to Investor Shares for the six months ended August 31, 2012.
First Dominion Capital Corporation (the “FDCC”) acts as the Funds’ principal underwriter and distributor. For the six months ended August 31, 2012, FDCC received no commissions or underwriting fees from the sale of the Funds’ shares. In addition, FDCC receives a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1% of Class C share redemptions occurring within one six months of purchase. Shares redeemed subject to a CDSC will receive a lower redemption value per share. For the six months ended August 31, 2012, FDCC received $604 in CDSC fees.
Commonwealth Shareholder Services, Inc. (“CSS”) provides shareholder, recordkeeping, administrative and blue-sky filing services as the administrative agent for the Funds. For such administrative services, CSS receives 0.10% per annum of average daily net assets of the Funds on the first $75 million and 0.07% per annum of the average daily net assets over $75 million subject to a $20,000 minimum per year. For the six months ended August 31, 2012, CSS earned $55,590 for its services and at August 31, 2012, was due $4,171 from the All-Cap Fund. For the six months ended August 31, 2012, CSS earned $4,999 for its services and at August 31, 2012, was due $291 from the SmallCap Fund.
Commonwealth Fund Services, Inc. (“CFSI”) is the Funds’ transfer and dividend disbursing agent. For such services, CFSI receives the greater of a basis point charge or a per-account charge, subject to a $15,000 minimum per year. CFSI earned $34,178 for its services for the six months ended August 31, 2012 from the All Cap Fund. CFSI earned $4,050 for its services for the six months ended August 31, 2012 and at August 31, 2012, was due $607 from the SmallCap Fund.
Commonwealth Fund Accounting (“CFA”) is the Funds’ pricing agent. CFA earned $31,605 for its services for the six months ended August 31, 2012 and at August 31, 2012, was due $2,449 from the All-Cap Fund. CFA earned $4,999 for its services for the six months ended August 31, 2012 and at August 31, 2012, was due $185 from the SmallCap Fund.
One Trustee and certain officers of the Trust are also officers of the Advisor. One officer of the Fund is also an officer and/or director of FDCC, CSS, CFA and CFSI.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust entered into contracts with its vendors, on behalf of the Funds, and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds. The Funds expect that risk of loss to be remote.
NOTE 7 – RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2011, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Auditing Standards Update (“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. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The guidance requires retrospective application for all comparative periods presented. Management is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2011-11 will have on the financial statement disclosures.
NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has evaluated all transactions and events subsequent to the date of the balance sheet through the date these financial statements were issued. Except as already included in the notes to these financial statements, no additional items require disclosure.

FUND EXPENSES (unaudited) |
Fund Expenses Example
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including deferred sales charges on certain redemptions made within one year of purchase (Class C shares in DGHM All-Cap Value Fund) and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This example 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, March 1, 2012, and held for the six months ended August 31, 2012.
Actual Expenses Example
The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 line 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 line of the table below provides information about 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 and 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 contingent deferred sales charges on certain redemptions. Therefore, the second line 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.
