RANGER FUNDS INVESTMENT TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JANUARY 31, 2024 (UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Organization

Ranger Funds Investment Trust (the “Trust”), is an open-end investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The affairs of the Trust are managed by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”). The Trust was organized on June 21, 2011, as a Delaware Statutory Trust. The Trust currently offers shares of beneficial interest (“shares”) of two series: Ranger Small Cap Fund and Ranger Micro Cap Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”). Ranger Small Cap Fund (“Small Cap Fund”) is a diversified portfolio with an investment objective to seek long-term capital appreciation. Ranger Micro Cap Fund (“Micro Cap Fund”) is a diversified portfolio with an investment objective to seek long-term capital appreciation. Each Fund has Institutional Class Shares and Investor Class Shares; however, the Funds do not currently offer their Investor Class shares for sale. The Declaration of Trust permits the Board to create additional funds and share classes.

Ranger Investment Management, L.P. (“Ranger Investment”) serves as investment adviser to Small Cap Fund and Micro Cap Fund. Ranger Investment is referred to as the “Adviser.”  

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies,” including Accounting Standards Updated 2013-08.

Trust expenses for the Funds are allocated based on their relative net assets within the Trust or allocated based on the number of Funds within the Trust.

Security Valuations: All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in Note 4.

Federal Income Taxes: The Funds make no provision for federal income or excise tax. The Funds intend to qualify each year as “regulated investment companies” (“RICs”) under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, by complying with the requirements applicable to RICs and by distributing substantially all of their taxable income. 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. If the required amount of net investment income or gains is not distributed, the Funds could incur a tax expense. Therefore, no federal income tax or excise provision is required.

The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions and concluded that no liability for

Semi-Annual Report | 14

RANGER FUNDS INVESTMENT TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

JANUARY 31, 2024 (UNAUDITED)

unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years (2019-2022) or expected to be taken in the Funds’ 2023 tax returns. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal, however the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next 12 months.

The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the six months ended January 31, 2024, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. For financial reporting purposes the treatment of distributions made to shareholders during the year from net investment income, net realized capital, or return of capital gains may differ from their ultimate treatment for federal income tax purposes. These differences are caused primarily by differences in the timing of the recognition of certain components of income, expense or realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. Where such differences are permanent in nature, they are reclassified in the components of the net assets based on their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations or net asset value per share of the Funds.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment transactions and related investment income: The Funds record security transactions on the trade date. The specific identification method is used for determining gains or losses for financial statement and income tax purposes. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. Distributions received from certain investments held by the Funds may be comprised of dividends, realized gains and returns of capital. The amounts may subsequently be reclassified upon receipt of information from the issuer.

Share Valuation: The net asset value per share of each class of shares for Small Cap Fund and Micro Cap Fund are calculated daily by dividing the total value of each Fund’s assets attributable to that class, less liabilities attributable to that class, by the number of shares of that class outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share of each class of Small Cap Fund and Micro Cap Fund is equal to the net asset value per share.

Share Class Accounting: Investment income, common expenses and realized/unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated to each respective share class of the respective

Semi-Annual Report | 15

RANGER FUNDS INVESTMENT TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

JANUARY 31, 2024 (UNAUDITED)

Fund on the basis of the daily net assets of each class. Fees relating to a specific class are charged directly to that share class.

Each class of shares has proportionate rights as to assets of the respective Funds, and the classes are identical except for ongoing distribution fees. Investor Class shares are subject to distribution fees, whereas Institutional Class shares are not. All classes have equal voting privileges, except where otherwise required by law or when the Trustees determine that the matter to be voted on affects only the interests of the shareholders of a particular class.

Guarantees and Indemnifications: In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown and would involve future claims against the Funds that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, the Funds would expect the risk of loss to be remote.

Note 3. Risks

Micro, Small and Medium Capitalization Risk: Micro, small or medium capitalization companies may be more at risk than large capitalization companies because, among other things, they may have limited product lines, operating history, market or financial resources, or because they may depend on a limited management group. The prices of securities of micro, small and medium capitalization companies generally are more volatile than those of large capitalization companies and are more likely to be adversely affected by changes in earnings results and investor expectations or poor economic or market conditions than large capitalization companies. Securities of small and medium capitalization companies may underperform large capitalization companies, may be harder to sell at times and at prices the portfolio managers believe appropriate, and may offer greater potential for losses.

Equity Risk: Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.

Micro Cap Fund: An investment in the Micro Cap Fund is subject to a variety of risks, including the possible loss of investment capital. Additional risks associated with the Micro Cap Fund include, but are not limited to:

Micro Cap Company Risk; Equity Market Risk: Equity markets can be volatile and the prices of common stocks can fluctuate significantly. In addition, the Micro Cap Fund portfolio invests in micro capitalization companies, which may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than those of larger, more established companies.

Liquidity Risk: Some micro cap securities may have few market-makers and low trading volume, which can increase transaction costs and may make it difficult or impossible for the Micro Cap Fund to dispose of a security position at all or at a price which represents current or fair market value.

In addition, the Small Cap Fund portfolio invests in small capitalization companies, which may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than those of larger, more established companies.

Liquidity Risk: Some small cap securities may have few market-makers and low trading volume, which can increase transaction costs and may make it difficult or impossible for the Small Cap Fund to dispose of a security position at all or at a price which represents current or fair market value.

A number of other risks are associated with an investment in the Small Cap Fund, including: issuer specific risks, liquidity risks, and risks associated with the Adviser’s judgment. Greater detail on each of the above stated risks may be found in the Small Cap Fund’s prospectus.

Note 4. Security Valuations

In computing net asset value, portfolio securities of the Funds are generally valued at their current market values determined on the basis of readily available market quotations, when available. If market quotations are not readily available, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Adviser, in its capacity as the Board’s valuation designee, pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. As a general matter, fair value represents the amount that a Fund could reasonably expect to receive if such Fund’s investment in the security were sold at the time of valuation. The Adviser may utilize third parties to assist the Adviser in its capacity as valuation designee available at the time the valuation is made and that the Adviser believes to be reliable. The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

JANUARY 31, 2024 (UNAUDITED)

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.

Fair Value Measurements: A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows.

Equity securities (common stock including ADRs) - Equity securities are valued by using market quotations furnished by a pricing service when the valuation designee believes such prices accurately reflect the fair value of such securities. Securities that are traded on any stock exchange are valued by the pricing service at the last quoted sale price. Securities traded in the NASDAQ over-the-counter market are valued by the pricing service at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Generally, if the security is traded in an active market and is valued at the last sale price, the security is categorized as a Level 1 security. When the security position is not considered to be part of an active market or when the security is valued at the bid price, the position is generally categorized as a Level 2 security. When market quotations are not readily available, when the valuation designee determines that the market quotation or the price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the current market value or when illiquid securities are being valued, such securities are valued at fair value as determined by the valuation designee in good faith, in accordance with guidelines adopted by and subject to review of the Board and are categorized as Level 3.

Money market funds are generally priced at the ending net asset value (“NAV”) provided by the service agent of the Funds. These securities will be classified as Level 1 of the value hierarchy.

During the six months ended January 31, 2024, a long-term capital gain distribution of $ 1.084743 per share was paid on December 27, 2023, for shareholders on record as of December 26, 2023, for a total distribution of $1,946,692.

The tax character of distributions paid during the six months ended January 31, 2024, was as follows:

       Capital Gain

$ 1,946,692

During the year ended July 31, 2023, a long-term capital gain distribution of $0.566958 per share was paid on December 28, 2022, for shareholders on record as of December 27, 2022, for a total distribution of $1,202,235.

The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended July 31, 2023, was as follows:

       Capital Gain

$ 1,202,235

As of July 31, 2023, for federal tax purposes the total investment aggregate cost is $29,802,287, the gross unrealized appreciation is $4,804,143 and the gross unrealized depreciation is $2,883,181 resulting in net unrealized appreciation of $1,920,962. The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation/ (depreciation) from investments is primarily attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales. As of July 31, 2023, for tax purposes the Small Cap Fund’s accumulated undistributed capital gains is $1,946,690. Additionally, the Small Cap Fund has elected to defer late year ordinary losses of $104,601. These losses are deemed to arise on the first day of the following fiscal year. Small Cap Fund adjusts certain components of capital to reflect permanent differences between financial statement amounts and net income and realized gains/losses determined in accordance with income tax rules. In addition, Small Cap Fund may utilize equalization accounting for tax purposes and designate earnings and profits, including net realized gains distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares, as a part of the dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. Accordingly, during the year ended July 31, 2023, amounts have been reclassified to reflect an increase in paid in capital of $276,475, and a corresponding decrease in distributable earnings of $276,475, which primarily resulted from equalization and net operating losses. The total distributable earnings for the Small Cap Fund are $3,763,052.

Note 10. Control Ownership

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of the fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of January 31, 2024, Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. held in omnibus accounts for the benefit of others, approximately 47.92% of the voting securities of the Small Cap Fund and may be deemed to control the Small Cap Fund. As of January 31, 2024, R. E. Smith Sub S Trust held approximately 30.47% of the voting securities of the Small Cap Fund and may be deemed to control the Small Cap Fund. However, the above ownership does not constitute control with respect to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC's”) auditor independence rules as they are not beneficial owners with significant influence over the Funds.

Note 11. Market Risk

The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Funds may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, climate change and climate-related events, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, international conflicts, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years, such as terrorist attacks around the world, natural disasters, social and political discord or debt crises and downgrades, among others, may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on both the U.S. and global financial markets. It is difficult to predict when similar events affecting the U.S. or global financial markets may occur, the effects that such events may have and the duration of those effects. Any such event(s) could have a significant adverse impact on the value and risk profile of the Funds. Changes in market conditions and interest rates can have the same impact on all types of securities and instruments. In times of severe market disruptions, you could lose your entire investment.

Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Funds through the date the financial statements were issued and has noted no such events required adjustment or disclosure.

  Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, which typically consist of management fees, service fees, and other fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six month period, August 1, 2023 through January 31, 2024 for Ranger Small Cap Fund and Ranger Micro Cap Fund.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the tables 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 the Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the tables below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each 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 these funds 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.

Information Regarding Statement of Additional Information

The Statement of Additional Information includes additional information about the Trustees and is available without charge upon request, by calling toll free at 1-866-458-4744.

Liquidity Program

The Funds have adopted and implemented a written liquidity risk management program as required by Rule 22e-4 (the “Liquidity Rule”) under the Investment Company Act. The program is reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration, among other factors, each respective Fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its short and long-term cash flow projections; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources.

During the six months ended January 31, 2024, the Trust's Liquidity Program Administrator ("LPA") and the Board reviewed the Funds’ investments and they determined that, generally, the Funds held adequate levels of cash and highly liquid investments to meet shareholder redemption activities in accordance with applicable requirements.  Accordingly, the Board and the LPA concluded that (i) the Funds’ liquidity risk management program is reasonably designed to prevent violations of the Liquidity Rule and (ii) the Funds’ liquidity risk management program has been effectively implemented.

Renewal of Advisory Agreements

The Board considered the renewal of an advisory agreement with Ranger Investment Management, LP (“Ranger Investment”), Small Cap Fund's and Micro Cap Fund’s investment adviser at a meeting held September 25, 2023. The Trustees review included, but was not limited to the following factors: (i) the investment performance of the Funds and Ranger Investment; (ii) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by Ranger Investment to the Funds; (iii) the cost of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by Ranger Investment and its affiliates from the relationship with the Funds; (iv) the extent to which economies of scale will be realized as the Funds grow; and (v) whether the fee levels reflect these economies of scale to the benefit of each Fund’s shareholders. The conclusions reached by the Trustees were based on a comprehensive evaluation 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 the advisory agreements.

Performance.

Small Cap. The Trustees reviewed Small Cap’s performance over various periods through July 31, 2023.  The Trustees noted that Small Cap had outperformed its Morningstar category (Small Growth) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods. The Trustees further noted that the Small Cap had outperformed the Russell 2000 Growth Index over the 5-year, 10-year and since inception periods ending July 31, 2023, but had underperformed the index over the 1-year and 3-year periods ended July 31, 2023. The Trustees noted that Small Cap had underperformed its peer group average over all periods presented through July 31, 2023.  The Trustees considered Ranger Investment’s explanation for Small Cap’s underperformance relative to the peer group average and recent relative underperformance in comparison with Small Cap’s index, discussed performance contributors and detractors and considered the composition of the peer group funds relative to Small Cap. The Trustees considered Ranger Investment’s commitment to fundamental, bottom-up approach to investing and Small Cap’s current positioning.  The Trustees determined that Small Cap’s performance was not unreasonable.

Micro Cap. The Trustees reviewed Micro Cap’s performance over various periods through July 31, 2023. The Trustees noted that Micro Cap had outperformed its Morningstar category (Small Growth), its benchmark (Russell Microcap Growth Index), and its peer group average for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and inception-to-date periods through July 31, 2023. The Trustees considered Ranger Investment’s explanation about the factors impacting Micro Cap’s strong relative performance, noting that Ranger Investment’s focus on fundamental factors continued to benefit Micro Cap. The Trustees considered that Micro Cap had shown strong performance and determined that Micro Cap’s performance was not unreasonable.

Fees and Expenses

Small Cap. The Trustee’s noted that Ranger Investment’s advisory fee for Small Cap is 1.00% before waiver and 0.66% after waiver, further noting that Ranger Investment contractually agreed to limit the Fund’s total operating expenses to 1.10% through November 30, 2024. The Trustee compared the advisory fee to that of Small Cap’s peer group and Morningstar category and noted that although the advisory fee (before waivers) was higher than the peer group average of 0.85% and the Morningstar category average of 0.81%, Small Cap’s advisory fee was within the range of both.

The Trustees considered that Small Cap’s net expense ratio of 1.14% was higher than the average expense ratio of the peer group and the Morningstar category of 0.99% and 0.98%, respectively. The Board further observed that Small Cap’s fees were higher than the fees that Ranger Investment charged to its separately managed accounts with similar strategies, noting that on average, these accounts were significantly larger than Small Cap and required fewer services. The Trustees reviewed the composition of the funds included in Small Cap’s peer group, noting that each fund included in the peer group had significantly higher assets relative to Small Cap, which may be a contributing factor to Small Cap’s higher expense ratio.  After further discussion, the Trustees concluded that Small Cap’s advisory fee and expenses were not unreasonable.    

 Micro Cap. The Trustees noted that Ranger Investment’s advisory fee for Micro Cap was 1.25% before waiver and 0.48% after waiver, further noting that Ranger Investment contractually agreed to limit the Fund’s total operating expenses to 1.50% through November 30, 2024.  The Trustees compared Micro Cap’s advisory fee to that of a peer group and Morningstar category and noted that the advisory fee (before waivers) was higher than the peer group average of 1.08% and the Morningstar category average of 0.83%, but within the range of both. The Trustees further considered that Micro Cap’s net expense ratio was higher than the average expense ratio of the peer group (1.28%) and the Morningstar category (0.98%), but within the range of both.  The Trustees reviewed the funds included in Micro Cap’s peer group and reviewed the Morningstar category noting  Ranger Investment’s explanation for the Micro Cap’s higher than average advisory fees and expenses being partially attributable to larger assets within the peer group and Morningstar not offering a separate microcap category and that microcap funds tend to have higher advisory fees and expense ratios relative to small cap funds, as presented in the Morningstar category.  After further discussion, the Trustees concluded that Micro Cap’s advisory fee and expenses were not unreasonable.   

Profitability. The Board reviewed the profitability analysis provided by Ranger Investment for each of the Funds. The Board observed that Ranger Investment reported a reasonable profit with respect to Small Cap and a modest loss with respect to the advisory services it provides to Micro Cap.  The Board considered other factors cited by Ranger Investment to support the overall level of profit, including, without limitation, ongoing investments in the Funds’ strategies and the increasing compliance costs and resources required for such strategies. The Board concluded that Ranger Investment’s overall profitability with respect to each Fund was not excessive.

Economies of Scale. The Trustees discussed economies of scale for Small Cap and Micro Cap, noting that neither Fund had yet achieved significant growth or the resulting economies of scale.  The Trustees noted that Ranger Investment believed that the current fees are both competitive and appropriate given the current size of the mandate and the servicing requirements for the Funds and that Ranger Investment did not have any immediate plans to reconsider the fee structure of Small Cap or Micro Cap.  After a discussion, the Trustees agreed that this was reasonable based on current circumstances.

Conclusion. Having requested and received such information from Ranger Investment 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 renewal of the management agreement was in the best interests of the Trust and shareholders of Small Cap and Micro Cap.
