Letter from the CEO of AdvisorShares Investments, LLC

December31, 2019

First and most importantly, thank you for being a shareholder in an AdvisorShares ETF. We appreciate the support that your investment in our ETF provides to help grow your investments over time. We hope you had a successful 2019.

The last six months saw a few changes. We closed two ETFs, the New Tech and Media ETF and the Sabretooth ETF. We reorganized the Pacific Asset Management Floating Rate ETF (ticker: FLRT) to the Pacific Global Senior Loan ETF Trust. We sincerely appreciate the sub-advisory services that Pacific Asset Management provided FLRT and we wish them much success as they expand their proprietary line up of ETFs. Finally, we launched three new ETFs based on models provided by an existing sub-advisor, Nasdaq Dorsey Wright, and managed by AdvisorShares. These three new strategies provide core equity exposure, however, the ETFs have a defensive feature that incrementally increases the cash position in the portfolio when the market turns downward.

The three new ETFs are:

• DWAW — AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright FSM All Cap World ETF

• DWEQ — AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright Alpha Equal Weight ETF

• DWUS — AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright FSM U.S. Core ETF

In addition, several of our ETFs had impressive performance results in 2019:

• DBLV — The DoubleLine equity team outperformed their Russell 1000 Value Index benchmark.

• ACT — Was the only ETF or Fund with dedicated cannabis exposure to have a positive total return.

• DWMC — Our technically driven micro cap strategy outperformed its Russell Microcap Index benchmark.

• YOLO — The cannabis fund category had significant underperformance for 2019, however, YOLO outperformed the North American Marijuana Index.

• AADR — Our international equity ETF came roaring back from a tough 2018, significantly outperforming comparable international equity benchmarks.

• FWDB — Easily outperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays Aggregate Bond Index.

• MINC — Maintained its four star Overall Morningstar rating – out of 488 funds in the Short-Term Multi-Sector Bond Category.

• DWSH — Our all short equity ETF outperformed a comparable inverse S&P 500 benchmark.

Please go to www.advisorshares.com to get full performance information on all AdvisorShares ETFs.

As we enter the new decade in 2020 and the second half of the fiscal year, AdvisorShares remains committed to you, our shareholders, and I am always available to address any questions or concerns you may have. We truly value your trust and continuous support of AdvisorShares. We wish you and yours a happy, healthy and prosperous new year.

Best regards,

Noah Hamman

CEO, AdvisorShares Investments

Letter from the CEO of AdvisorShares Investments, LLC (Continued)

December31, 2019

Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Overall MINC Morningstar rating is derived from a weighted average of the fund’s 3-, 5-, and 10- year (ifapplicable) risk-adjusted returns as of 12/31/2019. Category consists of 488 funds in 3 year and 442 in 5year. MINC received a 4 star rating in the 3 and 5 year period.

An investment in the Funds is subject to risk, including the possible loss of principal amount invested. ADRs are subject to the risk of change in political or economic conditions and exchange rates in foreign countries. Certain funds may participate in leveraged transactions to include selling securities short which creates the risk of magnified capital losses. Under certain market conditions, short sales can increase the volatility and decrease the liquidity of certain securities or positions, and may lower the Fund’s return or result in a loss. There is no guarantee that the individual Funds’ will achieve the stated investment objectives. Investments in fixed income are subject to interest rate risk and credit risk. The risks associated with each Fund include the risks associated with the underlying ETFs, which can result in higher volatility, and are detailed in each Fund’s prospectus and on each Fund’s webpage.

The views in this report were those of the Fund’s CEO as of December31, 2019 and may not reflect his views on the date that this report is first published or anytime thereafter. These views are intended to assist shareholders in understanding their investments and do not constitute investment advice.

Shareholder Expense Examples (unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur transaction cost and ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds. The examples are based on an initial investment of $1,000 invested at July1, 2019 and held for the period ended December31, 2019, unless noted below for Funds not in operations for the full six month period.

Actual Expenses

The first line under each Fund in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred 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 under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid” to estimate the expenses attributable to your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line under each Fund in the table 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 for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other ETF funds. To do so, 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. Therefore, the hypothetical example 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.

AdvisorShares Ranger Equity Bear ETF (‘‘Ranger Equity Bear ETF’’) seeks capital appreciation through short sales of domestically traded equity securities. The portfolio management team implements a bottom-up, fundamental, research driven security selection process. In selecting short positions, the Fund seeks to identify securities with low earnings quality or aggressive accounting which may be intended on the part of company management to mask operational deterioration and bolster the reported earnings per share over a short time period. In addition, the portfolio management team seeks to identify earnings driven events that may act as a catalyst to the price decline of a security, such as downwards earnings revisions or reduced forward guidance.

AdvisorShares Sage Core Reserves ETF (‘‘Sage Core Reserves ETF’’) seeks to preserve capital while maximizing income. The Sub-Advisor seeks to achieve the fund’s investment objective by investing in a variety of fixed income securities, including bonds, forwards and instruments issued by U.S. and foreign issuers. It will invest in U.S. dollar-denominated investment grade debt securities, including mortgage- or asset-backed securities, rated Baa- or higher by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

AdvisorShares STAR Global Buy-Write ETF (‘‘STAR Global Buy-Write ETF’’) seeks consistent repeatable returns across all market cycles. The Portfolio Manager seeks to achieve this investment objective by using a proprietary strategy known as Volatility Enhanced Global Appreciation (VEGA). VEGA employs a ‘‘Buy-Write’’ or ‘‘Covered Call’’ overlay for their global allocation strategy using ETPs. The strategy simultaneously writes (sells) a call option against each position in order to seek cumulative price appreciation from the portfolio’s global exposure, while generating a consistent income stream from the sale of covered call and/or cash-secured put options. When volatility is low the portfolio manager buys protective put options to manage downside risk.

AdvisorShares Vice ETF (“Vice ETF”) seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in securities of companies that derive at least 50% of their net revenue from tobacco and alcoholic beverages and companies that derive at least 50% of their net revenue from the marijuana and hemp industry or have at least 50% of their company assets dedicated to lawful research and development of cannabis or cannabinoid-related products. The Fund will invest primarily in U.S. exchange listed equity securities, including common and preferred stock and ADRs.

Some of the Funds are considered “fund of funds” and seek to achieve their investment objectives by investing primarily in other affiliated and unaffiliated exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), as well as other exchange-traded products (“ETPs”), including, but not limited to, exchange-traded notes (“ETNs”) and closed-end funds (collectively with ETFs, ETNs, and ETPs), that offer diversified exposure to various global regions, credit qualities, durations and maturity dates.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (‘‘GAAP’’) which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial 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.

Investment Valuation

In computing each Fund’s NAV, the Fund’s securities holdings are valued based on their last readily available market price. Price information on listed securities, including Underlying ETFs, is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. Securities regularly traded in an Over-the-Counter (“OTC”) market are valued at the latest quoted sales price on the primary exchange or national securities market on which such securities are traded. Securities not listed on an exchange or national securities market, or securities in which there was no last reported sales price, are valued at the most recent bid price. Other portfolio securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued based on fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Trust.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (continued)

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investment securities are calculated using the identified cost method. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. Premiums and discounts are amortized over the life of the bond using the effective interest method.

In October 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements in Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which is intended to facilitate the disclosure of information to investors and simplify compliance without significantly altering the total mix of information provided to investors. Effective with the current reporting period, the Funds adopted the amendments with the impacts being that the Funds are no longer required to present components of distributable earnings on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities or the sources of distributable earnings and the amount of undistributed net investment income on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

Distributions received from investments in Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) are recorded as dividend income on ex-dividend date, subject to reclassification upon notice of the character of such distributions by the issuer. The portion of dividend attributable to the return of capital is recorded against the cost basis of the security.

Foreign Taxes

The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, capital gains on investments, certain foreign currency transactions or other corporate events. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which the Funds invest. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the Funds and are reflected in their Statements of Operations.

Expenses

Expenses of the Trust, which are directly identifiable to a specific Fund, are applied 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 net assets of each Fund.

Futures Contracts

Certain Funds may invest in futures contracts (‘‘futures’’), in order to hedge its investments against fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates or market conditions. Such Funds may invest in futures as a primary investment strategy. Investments in futures may increase or leverage exposure to a particular market risk, thereby increasing price volatility of derivative instruments a Fund holds. No monies are paid or received by a Fund upon the purchase or sale of a futures contract. Initially, a Fund will be required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or cash equivalents, known as initial margin, based on the value of the contract. Subsequent payments, called variation margin, to and from the broker, will be made on a daily basis as the price of the underlying instruments fluctuates, making the long and short positions in the futures contract more or less valuable, a process known as ‘marking-to-the-market.’ Once a final determination of variation margin is made, additional cash is required to be paid by or released to a Fund, and a Fund will realize a loss or gain. The Funds may be subject to the risk that the change in the value of the futures contract may not

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (continued)

correlate perfectly with the underlying index. Use of long futures contracts subjects the Funds to risk of loss in excess of the amounts shown on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, up to the notional value of the futures contracts. Use of short futures contracts subjects the Funds to unlimited risk of loss. The Funds may enter into futures contracts only on exchanges or boards of trade. The exchange or board of trade acts as the counterparty to each futures contract; therefore, the Funds’ credit risk is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade. Under some circumstances, futures exchanges may establish daily limits on the amount that the price of a futures contract can vary from the previous day’s settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of unfavorable positions.

Swap Agreements

Certain funds may invest in equity swaps to obtain exposure to the underlying referenced security, obtain leverage or enjoy the returns from ownership without actually owning equity. Equity swaps are two-party contracts that generally obligate one party to pay the positive return and the other party to pay the negative return on a specified reference security, basket of securities, security index or index component during the period of the swap. Equity swap contracts are marked to market daily based on the value of the underlying security and the change, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss.

Equity swaps normally do not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to equity swaps is normally limited to the net amount of payments that a Fund is contractually obligated to make. If the other party to an equity swap defaults a Fund’s risk of loss consists of the net amount of payments that the Fund is contractually entitled to receive, if any.

Equity swaps are derivatives and their value can be very volatile. To the extent that the Advisor or Sub-Advisor, as applicable, do not accurately analyze and predict future market trends, the values of assets or economic factors, the Funds may suffer a loss, which may be substantial. The swap markets in which many types of swap transactions are traded have grown substantially in recent years, with a large number of banks and investment banking firms acting both as principals and as agents. As a result, the markets for certain types of swaps have become relatively liquid. Periodic payments received or paid by the Funds are recorded as realized gains or losses.

Repurchase Agreements

The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements provided that the value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest, will equal or exceed the value of the repurchase agreement during the term of the agreement. The underlying collateral for all repurchase agreements is held in safekeeping by the Fund’s custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.

At December31, 2019 the market values of repurchase agreements outstanding are included as cash collateral for securities on loan on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Short Sales

Certain Funds may sell securities it does not own as a hedge against some of its long positions and/or in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security (short sale). When the Funds make a short sale, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale. The Funds may have to pay a fee to borrow the particular security and may be obligated to remit any interest or dividends received on such borrowed securities. Dividends declared

on short positions open are recorded on the ex-date as an expense. A gain, limited to the price at which the Funds sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in magnitude, will be recognized upon the termination of a short sale if the market price at termination is less than or greater than, respectively, the proceeds originally received. The Funds are also subject to the risk that it may be unable to reacquire a security to terminate a short position except at a price substantially in excess of the last quoted price.

The Funds are required to pledge cash or securities to the broker as collateral for the securities sold short. Collateral requirements are calculated daily based on the current market value of the short positions. Cash deposited with broker for collateral for securities sold short is recorded as an asset on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and securities segregated as collateral are denoted in the Schedule of Investments. The Funds may receive or pay the net of the following amounts: (i) a portion of the income from the investment of cash collateral; (ii) the broker’s fee on the borrowed securities; and (iii) a financing charge for the difference in the market value of the short position and cash collateral deposited with the broker. This income or fee is calculated daily based upon the market value of each borrowed security and a variable rate that is dependent on the availability of the security. The net amount of income or fees paid to Ranger Equity Bear ETF for the period ended December31, 2019 was $693,092, which is included as Interest Income in the Statements of Operations.

Deposits with brokers and segregated cash for securities sold short represent cash balances on deposit with the Funds’ prime brokers and custodian. The Funds are subject to credit risk should the prime brokers be unable to meet its obligations to the Funds.

Term Loans

Certain Funds invests in senior secured corporate loans or bank loans, some of which may be partially or entirely unfunded and purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis, that pay interest at rates which are periodically reset by reference to a base lending rate plus a spread. Bank loans generally pay interest at rates which are periodically determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. All loans carry a variable rate of interest. These base lending rates are generally (i) the Prime Rate offered by one or more major United States banks, (ii) the lending rate offered by one or more European banks such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or (iii) the Certificate of Deposit rate. Bank Loans, while exempt from registration, under the Securities Act of 1933, contain certain restrictions on resale and cannot be sold publicly. Floating rate bank loans often require prepayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, actual maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturity. Bank loans in which the Fund invests are generally readily marketable, but may be subject to certain restrictions on resale.

Options

Certain Funds are authorized to write and purchase put and call options. When a Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is reflected as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value of the option written. When a security is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the security acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the security sold. When an option expires (or the Fund enters into a closing transaction), the Fund realizes a gain or loss on the option to the extent

of the premiums received or paid (or gain or loss to the extent the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premium paid or received). The Fund, as writer of an option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. Written and purchased options are non-income producing investments.

Short-Term Investments

Each Fund may invest in high-quality short-term debt securities and money market instruments on an ongoing basis to maintain liquidity or pending selection of investments in accordance with its policies. These short-term debt securities and money market instruments include shares of other mutual funds, commercial paper, certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances, U.S. Government securities and repurchase agreements.

Securities Lending

The Funds participate in a securities lending program offered by The Bank of New York Mellon (‘‘BNYM’’) (the ‘‘Program’’), providing for the lending of securities to qualified brokers. Securities lending income includes earnings of such temporary cash investments, plus or minus any rebate to a borrower. These earnings (after any rebate) are then divided between BNYM, as a fee for its services under the Program, and the Funds, according to agreed-upon rates. Collateral on all securities loaned is accepted as cash and non-cash and is maintained at a minimum level of 102% (105% in the case of certain foreign securities) of the market value, plus interest, if applicable, of investments on loan. It is the Fund’s policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Funds if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. Under the terms of the Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by BNYM. Cash collateral is held in a separate account managed by BNYM, who is authorized to exclusively enter into money market instruments and overnight repurchase agreements, which are collateralized at 102% with securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury; U.S. Government or any agency, instrumentality or authority of the U.S. government. The securities purchased with cash collateral received are reflected in the Schedule of Investments. BNYM bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the cash collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested.

The money market instruments and repurchase agreements income related to the Program earned by the Funds is disclosed on the Statements of Operations.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (continued)

Dividends and Distributions

Each Fund will generally pay out dividends to shareholders at least annually. Each Fund will distribute its net capital gains, if any, to shareholders annually. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date.

Indemnifications

In the normal course of business, each Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements cannot be known; however, the Trust expects any risk of loss to be remote.

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Agreements

Investment Advisory Agreement

Each Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with AdvisorShares Investments, LLC (the ‘‘Advisor’’) pursuant to which the Advisor acts as the Fund’s investment advisor. Pursuant to the agreement, the Advisor has overall supervisory responsibility for the general management and investment of each Fund’s securities portfolio, and has ultimate responsibility (subject to oversight by the Trust’s Board of Trustees) for oversight of the Trust’s sub-advisors. For its services, each Fund pays the Advisor an annual management fee and which is calculated daily and paid monthly based on average daily net assets. From time to time, the Advisor may waive all or a portion of its fee.

The Advisor’s annual management fee for each Fund is as follows:

		Fund:		Rate:
		Cornerstone Small Cap ETF		0.65%
		Dorsey Wright ADR ETF		0.75%
		Dorsey Wright Alpha Equal Weight ETF		0.75%
		Dorsey Wright FSM All Cap World ETF		0.75%
		Dorsey Wright FSM US Core ETF		0.75%
		Dorsey Wright Micro-Cap ETF		0.75%
		Dorsey Wright Short ETF		0.75%
		DoubleLine Value Equity ETF		0.70%
		Focused Equity ETF		0.75%(a)
		FolioBeyond Smart Core Bond ETF		0.50%
		Newfleet Multi-Sector Income ETF		0.50%
		Pure Cannabis ETF		0.60%
		Ranger Equity Bear ETF		1.50%
		Sage Core Reserves ETF		0.30%
		STAR Global Buy-Write ETF		1.35%
		Vice ETF		0.60%

____________

(a) The actual fee paid may vary from the contractual fee based on the Fund’s performance to its benchmark. Accordingly, the Advisor’s annual advisory fee will range from0.65% to 0.85% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Agreements – (continued)

Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement between the Focused Equity ETF and the Advisor, the Advisor is entitled to receive, on a monthly basis, an annual advisory fee based on the average daily net assets of the Fund. The Advisor’s advisory fee has two components — the base fee and the performance fee adjustment. The base fee is the pre-determined rate at which the Advisor is paid when the Fund’s net performance is in line with Fund’s pre-determined performance benchmark. The base fee is subject to an upward or downward adjustment by the performance fee. If the Fund outperforms the performance benchmark, the Advisor may receive an upward fee adjustment. If the Fund underperforms the performance benchmark, the Advisor may receive a downward fee adjustment.

The Advisor’s annual base fee is 0.75% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The performance fee adjustment is derived by comparing the Fund’s performance over a rolling twelve-month period to its performance benchmark, the S&P 500 Index. The base fee is adjusted at a rate of 0.02% for every 0.25% to 0.50% of out-performance or under-performance compared to the performance benchmark, but only up to 2.00% of the performance benchmark. As a result, the maximum possible performance fee adjustment, up or down, to the base fee is 0.10%. Accordingly, the Advisor’s annual advisory fee may range from 0.65% to 0.85% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the period ended December31, 2019, there was no performance fee adjustment.

Sub-Advisory Agreements

Each Fund’s investment sub-advisor provides investment advice and management services to the Fund. AdvisorShares supervises the day-to-day investment and reinvestment of the assets in the Fund and is responsible for monitoring the Fund’s adherence to its investment mandate. Pursuant to an investment sub-advisory agreement between each sub-advisor and the Advisor, the sub-advisor is entitled to a fee, which is not an additional expense of the Funds, and is calculated daily and paid monthly by the Advisor, at an annual rate based on the average daily net assets of its respective Fund(s) as follows:

Fund	Sub-Advisor	Sub-Advisory Fee Rate
AdvisorShares Cornerstone Small Cap ETF	Cornerstone Investment Partners, LLC	0.35%
AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright ADR ETF	Dorsey, Wright & Associates, LLC	0.25%
AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright Micro Cap ETF	Dorsey, Wright & Associates, LLC	0.25%
AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright Short ETF	Dorsey, Wright & Associates, LLC	0.25%
AdvisorShares Double Line Value ETF	Doubleline Equity LP	0.35%
AdvisorShares Newfleet Multi-Sector Income ETF	Newfleet Asset Management, LLC	0.25%
AdvisorShares Ranger Equity Bear ETF	Ranger Alternative Management, L.P.	1.00%
AdvisorShares Sage Core Reserves ETF	Sage Advisory Services, Ltd. Co.	0.15%
AdvisorShares STAR Global Buy-Write ETF	Partnervest Advisory Services, LLC	0.85%

From time to time, each sub-advisor may waive all or a portion of its fee.

The expense limitation agreement will be terminated upon termination of the investment advisory agreement between the Advisor and the Fund. The investment advisory agreement may only be terminated with the approval of the Fund’s Board. The expense caps in effect for each Fund during the period ended December31, 2019 were as follows:

		Fund:		Rate:

(d) Prior to November 1, 2019, the expense limit was 0.75%.

The Advisor may recapture operating expenses waived and/or reimbursed within three years after the date on which such waiver or reimbursement occurred. The Funds must pay their ordinary operating expenses before the Advisor is permitted to recapture and must remain in compliance with any applicable expense limitation, as well as with, the expense limitation in effect at the time of the waiver or reimbursement, if different.

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Agreements – (continued)

Administrator, Custodian, Fund Accountant and Transfer Agent

The Bank of New York Mellon (‘‘BNYM’’) (in each capacity, the ‘‘Administrator’’, ‘‘Custodian’’, ‘‘Fund Accountant’’ or ‘‘Transfer Agent’’), serves as the Fund’s Administrator, Custodian, Fund Accountant and Transfer Agent pursuant to a certain Fund Administration and Accounting Agreement, a Custody Agreement or a Transfer Agency and Service Agreement, as the case may be.

Distribution and Service (12b-1) Plan

Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the ‘‘Distributor’’) serves as the Fund’s distributor of Creation Units for the Fund pursuant to the distribution agreement. The Distributor does not maintain any secondary market shares. The Funds have adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (‘‘Plan’’) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. In accordance with its Plan, each Fund is authorized to pay an amount up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets each year for certain distribution-related activities. No fees are currently paid by each Fund under the Plan, and there are no current plans to impose these fees. However, in the event Rule 12b-1 fees were charged, over time they would increase the cost of an investment in each Fund.

4. Creation and Redemption Transactions

The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV in groups of 25,000shares, at minimum, called ‘‘Creation Units.’’ Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of a Fund. Only ‘‘Authorized Participants’’ may purchase or redeem shares directly from each Fund. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. Most retail investors will not qualify as Authorized Participants or have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they will be unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Fund. Rather, most retail investors will purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and will be subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.

5. Summary of Fair Value Disclosure

The Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (‘‘FASB’’) Accounting Standards Codification (‘‘ASC’’) 820-10,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes an authoritative framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

• Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the company has the ability to access.

• Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.

• Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available.

102

ADVISORSHARES TRUST

5. Summary of Fair Value Disclosure – (continued)

Investments that use Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to: (i) an unlisted security related to corporate actions; (ii) a restricted security (e.g., one that may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended); (iii) a security whose trading has been suspended or which has been de-listed from its primary trading exchange; (iv) a security that is thinly traded; (v) a security in default or bankruptcy proceedings for which there is no current market quotation; (vi) a security affected by currency controls or restrictions; and (vii) a security affected by a significant event (e.g., an event that occurs after the close of the markets on which the security is traded but before the time as of which a Fund’s net asset value is computed and that may materially affect the value of the Fund’s investment). Examples of events that may be ‘‘significant events’’ are government actions, natural disasters, armed conflicts and acts of terrorism. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

For more detailed categories, see the accompanying Schedules of Investments.

A reconciliation of assets or liabilities in which Level 3 inputs are used in determining fair value is presented when there are significant (individually, greater than 1% of the net assets of a fund, or collectively, greater than 5% of the net assets of a fund) Level 3 assets or liabilities at the end of the period.

6. Derivative Instruments

The Funds have adopted authoritative standards of accounting for derivative instruments which establish enhanced disclosure requirements. These standards improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by requiring enhanced disclosures that enables investors to understand how and why a fund uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments are accounted for and how derivative instruments affect a fund’s financial position and results of operations. The Funds use derivative instruments as part of their principal investment strategy to achieve their investment objective.

At December31, 2019, the fair values of derivative instruments were as follows:

Statements of Assets and Liabilities:

Fund:	Asset Derivatives:	Equity Risk
Pure Cannabis ETF	Unrealized Appreciation on Swaps Contracts	$	11,475

7. Federal Income Tax

Each Fund intends to qualify as a ‘‘regulated investment company’’ under Sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If so qualified, the Funds will not be subject to Federal income tax to the extent it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to its shareholders. Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements, and requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing a Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are ‘‘more-likely-than-not’’ of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-than-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Interest and penalty related to income taxes would be recorded as income tax expense. Management of the Funds is required to analyze all open tax years (2017 – 2019), as defined by IRS statute of limitations, for all major jurisdictions, including federal tax authorities and certain state tax authorities. As of December31, 2019, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds have no examination in progress and is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

9. Risks Involved with Investing in the Funds

The Funds are subject to the principal risks described below, some or all of these risks may adversely affect the Funds’ NAV, trading price, yield, total return and ability to meet its investment objective. As with any investment, an investment in each Fund could result in a loss or the performance of each Fund could be inferior to that of other investments.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or guarantor of debt instruments or the counterparty to a financial transaction, including derivatives contracts, repurchase agreements or loans of portfolio securities, is unable or unwilling to make timely interest and/or principal payments or to otherwise honor its obligations. The Fund’s, and its affiliates, manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that they believe have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Funds to issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of each Fund’s exposure to credit and counterparty risks with respect to those financial assets is approximated by their value recorded in its Statements of Assets and Liabilities. High yield securities may also be subject to greater levels of credit or default risk than higher-rated securities and high yield securities may be less liquid and more difficult to sell at an advantageous time or price or to value than higher-rated securities. In particular, high yield securities are often issued by smaller, less creditworthy companies or by highly leveraged (indebted) companies, which are generally less able than more financially stable companies to make scheduled payments of interest and principal.

Fund of Funds Risk

Some of the Funds’ investment performance, because they are fund of funds, depends on the investment performance of the Underlying ETFs in which they invest. An investment in these Funds

9. Risks Involved with Investing in the Funds – (continued)

is subject to the risk associated with the Underlying ETFs that comprise their Underlying Index. The Funds will indirectly pay a proportional share of the asset-based fees, if any, of the Underlying ETFs in which they invest.

Liquidity Risk

In certain circumstances, it may be difficult for the Fund to purchase and sell particular investments within a reasonable time at a fair price. To the extent that there is not an established retail market for instruments in which the Fund may invest, trading in such instruments may be relatively inactive. Trading in shares may be halted because of market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the Exchange, make trading in shares inadvisable. In addition, trading in shares is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to ‘‘circuit breaker’’ rules. There can be no assurance that the requirements necessary to maintain the listing of the shares of the Fund will continue to be met or will remain unchanged.

Market Risk

Investments in securities, in general, are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. The Fund’s investments may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, or particular countries, segments, economic sectors, industries or companies within those markets. The value of a security held in a short position may increase due to general economic and market conditions which are not specifically related to a particular issuer, such as real or perceived positive economic conditions or changes in interest or currency rates. Because the market value of ETF shares may differ from their net asset value, the shares may trade at a premium or discount. An investment in the Fund may lose money.

New Fund Risk

Some of the Funds are new funds. As new funds, there can be no assurance that the Funds will grow to or maintain an economically viable size, in which case the Funds may experience greater tracking error to their Underlying Index than it otherwise would be at higher asset levels or it could ultimately liquidate.

Cannabis-Related Company Risk

Cannabis-related companies are subject to various laws and regulations that may differ at the state/local and federal level. These laws and regulations may (i) significantly affect a cannabis-related company’s ability to secure financing, (ii) impact the market for marijuana industry sales and services, and (iii) set limitations on marijuana use, production, transportation, and storage. Cannabis-related companies may also be required to secure permits and authorizations from government agencies to cultivate or research marijuana. In addition, cannabis-related companies are subject to the risks associated with the greater agricultural industry, including changes to or trends that affect commodity prices, labor costs, weather conditions, and laws and regulations related to environmental protection, health and safety. Cannabis-related companies may also be subject to risks associated with the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. These risks include increased government regulation, the use and enforcement of intellectual property rights and patents, technological change and obsolescence, product liability lawsuits, and the risk that research and development may not necessarily lead to commercially successful products.

The Funds have evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of the financial statements and determined that no events have occurred that require additional disclosure.

BOARD REVIEW OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS

Renewal of the Sub-Advisory Agreement for the AdvisorShares STAR Global Buy-Write ETF, AdvisorShares Ranger Equity Bear ETF, AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright ADR ETF, AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright Micro-Cap ETF, and AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright Short ETF

At meetings of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of AdvisorShares Trust (the “Trust”) held on August20, 2019 and November21, 2019, the Board, including those trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) (the “Independent Trustees”), considered the approval of the renewal of separate sub-advisory agreements (collectively, the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”) between AdvisorShares Investments, LLC (the “Advisor”) and (1) Partnervest Advisory Services, LLC, on behalf of the AdvisorShares STAR Global Buy-Write ETF, (2) Ranger Alternative Management L.P., on behalf of the AdvisorShares Ranger Equity Bear ETF, and (3) Dorsey, Wright & Associates, LLC, on behalf of the AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright ADR ETF, AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright Micro-Cap ETF and AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright Short ETF (collectively, the “Sub-Advisors”), pursuant to which the Sub-Advisors perform portfolio management and related services for the Funds.

Pursuant to Section 15 of the 1940 Act, to continue after their initial two-year term, the Sub-Advisory Agreements must be approved annually: (i) by the vote of the Board or by a vote of the shareholders of the Funds and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. Each year, the Board calls and holds meetings to decide whether to renew the Sub-Advisory Agreements for an additional one-year term. In preparation for the meetings, the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of information from the Advisor and Sub-Advisors. The Board uses this information, as well as other information that the Advisor, Sub-Advisors and other service providers may submit to the Board at the meetings and over the course of the prior year, to help evaluate each Sub-Advisor’s fee and other aspects of the Sub-Advisory Agreements and decide whether to renew the Sub-Advisory Agreements for an additional year.

As discussed in further detail below, prior to and at the meetings, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, reviewed written materials from the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor regarding, among other things: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by each Sub-Advisor; (ii) the performance of each Sub-Advisor; (iii) the costs of the services provided and profits realized by each Sub-Advisor; (iv) the potential for economies of scale for the benefit of each Fund’s shareholders; and (v) any ancillary benefits to each Sub-Advisor. The Board received an overview of each Sub-Advisor’s operations and management of the Funds, including comparative fee data and profitability analysis for each Fund, and was also provided with information with respect to compliance oversight. The Board reviewed the management of each Fund, including the Fund’s strategy, the focus in the markets, the Fund’s positioning in the market, and its attractive and unique offering. The Board reviewed each Sub-Advisor’s overall business generally, including any noteworthy personnel changes.

The Board deliberated on the renewal of the Sub-Advisory Agreements in light of the written materials that it received before the meetings, information it received at the meetings, and information it had received at prior board meetings. In its deliberations, the Board considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the selection of each Sub-Advisor and the renewal of its Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board did not identify any single piece of information discussed below that was paramount, controlling or determinative of its decision.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by each Sub-Advisor, the Board reviewed the portfolio management services provided to each Fund. The most recent Form ADV for each Sub-Advisor also was provided to the Board, as were responses to a detailed series of questions that, among other things, requested information about the Sub-Advisor’s business, services, and compensation. The Board considered each Sub-Advisor’s overall quality of personnel, operations, and financial condition, its investment advisory capabilities, and information concerning its compliance function, operational capabilities, and portfolio management team. Based on its review, within the context of its full deliberations, the Board determined that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Sub-Advisors.

108

BOARD REVIEW OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (Continued)

Performance of the Funds. The Board was provided with information regarding each Fund’s performance for various periods, as well as comparative performance information. Each Sub-Advisor provided information regarding factors impacting the performance of the Funds, outlining current market conditions, and explaining its expectations and strategies for the future. Based on this information, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the investment results that each Sub-Advisor had been able to achieve for its respective Fund.

Cost of Services and Profitability.In considering whether the sub-advisory fee payable with respect to each Fund is reasonable, the Board reviewed the sub-advisory fee paid by the Advisor to each Sub-Advisor, the fee waived and/or expenses reimbursed by each Sub-Advisor over the period, the costs and other expenses incurred by each Sub-Advisor in providing the services, and the profitability analysis with respect to each Fund. The Board also reviewed information comparing each Fund’s fee to the fee paid by comparable funds. Based on its review, in the context of its full deliberations, the Board concluded for each Fund that the sub-advisory fee appears to be reasonable in light of the services rendered.

Economies of Scale.The Board considered for each Fund whether economies of scale were realized, noting any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by the Sub-Advisors and whether the Sub-Advisors’ fee includes breakpoints. The Board determined to continue to assess on an ongoing basis whether the aggregate advisory fee for each Fund appropriately takes into account any economies of scale that had been realized as a result of any significant asset growth of the Fund.

Ancillary Benefits.The Board noted the potential benefits to be received by each Sub-Advisor as a result of its relationship with a Fund (other than the sub-advisory fee), including the intangible benefits of its association with the Trust generally and any favorable publicity arising in connection with a Fund’s performance.

Conclusion. Based on its deliberations and evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously: (i) concluded that the terms of each Sub-Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable; (ii) concluded that each Sub-Advisor’s fee is reasonable in light of the services that it provides to its respective Fund; and (iii) agreed to renew each Sub-Advisory Agreement for another year.

Approval of the Advisory Agreement for AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright FSM US Core ETF, AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright FSM All Cap World ETF, and AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright Alpha Equal Weight ETF

At a meeting held on November21, 2019, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered the approval of the investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between the Trust and the Advisor on behalf of the AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright FSM US Core ETF, AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright FSM All Cap World ETF, and AdvisorShares Dorsey Wright Alpha Equal Weight ETF. The Board noted that the Advisor provides investment advisory services to the other series of the Trust and that an annual in-depth review of the Advisor with respect to those series had recently been conducted in May 2019.

In connection with its consideration of the Advisory Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, requested, received and evaluated materials from the Advisor about the services proposed to be provided thereunder, including information about the key features of each Fund and related matters. The Board also reviewed information regarding the proposed investment advisory fee rate and various other materials that it considered relevant to its consideration and approval of the proposed agreement.

In considering the Advisory Agreement, the Board considered and discussed information and analysis provided by the Advisor. In its deliberations, the Board did not identify any single piece of information that was paramount or controlling and individual trustees may have attributed different weights to various factors.

109

BOARD REVIEW OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (Continued)

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Advisor to each Fund, the Board reviewed the services to be provided by the Advisor, noting that these services include, among other things, furnishing a continuous investment program for the Funds, including arranging for, or implementing, the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, the provision of related services such as portfolio management compliance services, and the preparation and filing of certain reports on behalf of the Trust. The Trustees reviewed the extensive responsibilities that the Advisor will have as investment advisor to each Fund, including the oversight of service providers, oversight of general fund compliance with federal and state laws, and the implementation of Board directives as they relate to the Funds. The Board also considered, among other things, the professional experience and qualifications of the senior management and key professional personnel of the Advisor, including those individuals responsible for portfolio management. The Board also considered the Advisor’s operational capabilities and resources and its experience in managing investment portfolios. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services expected to be provided to the Funds by the Advisor.

Performance. In connection with the assessment of the ability of the Advisor to perform its duties under the Advisory Agreement, the Board considered its investment performance and experience generally and whether it has the resources necessary to carry out its functions. The Board concluded that the Advisor has the resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Advisory Agreement.

Cost of Services and Profitability. The Board considered the cost of the services to be provided by the Advisor, reviewed the fee to be paid pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, and considered the estimated profitability projected by the Advisor from its relationship with each Fund. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding advisory fees of comparable funds, and evaluated the proposed fee arrangement in light of this information and the factors that judicial decisions have specified as pertinent generally. The Board also considered the Advisor’s contractual arrangement to waive its advisory fee and/or reimburse expenses in an effort to control the expense ratio of each Fund. Based on its review, within the context of its full deliberations, the Board determined that the fee proposed to be paid by each Fund to the Advisor appears to be reasonable in light of the services to be provided.

Economies of Scale. The Board considered the potential for economies of scale and determined that it would reconsider this factor at an appropriate time in the future. In the event there were to be significant asset growth in a Fund, the Board determined to reassess whether the investment advisory fee appropriately took into account any economies of scale that had been realized as a result of that growth. The Board also considered the Advisor’s willingness to enter into a contractual expense limitation agreement for each Fund, noting that this would protect shareholders from high operational costs.

Ancillary Benefits. The Board noted the potential benefits to be received by the Advisor as a result of its relationship with each Fund (other than the advisory fee), including the intangible benefits of its association with the Trust generally and any favorable publicity arising in connection with the Fund’s performance.

Conclusion. Based on its deliberations and evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously: (i) concluded that the terms of the Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable; (ii) concluded that the fee to be paid to the Advisor is reasonable in light of the services that it will provide to each Fund; and (iii) agreed to approve the Advisory Agreement for an initial term of two years.
