ADLER VALUE FUND
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited)	December 31, 2020

Dear Shareholder,

In mid-August 2018, the Adler Value Fund (the “Fund”) commenced operations. Adler Asset Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. For the semi-annual period ended November 30, 2020, the Fund’s total return was 24.02%. During the same period, the total return of the S&P 500 Value Index was 14.82%. During the semi-annual period, election and COVID-19 vaccine trial results altered the market environment and acted as a catalyst for investors to focus on value stocks.

Investment Approach

In selecting investments for the Fund, the Adviser uses a focused-value strategy to invest in companies that, in its opinion, appear to be undervalued by the equity market but where catalysts exist, in the opinion of the Adviser, to close these valuation gaps. The Adviser seeks to exploit perceived market misjudgments in pricing by buying equity securities that appear to be undervalued because of a temporary aversion to these out-of-favor issuers.

The Adviser maintains a watch list of companies and reviews each company’s financial condition and prospects, including: expected future earnings; cash flow; the ability and willingness to return capital to shareholders; competitive position; quality of the business franchise; and the reputation, experience, and competence of a company’s management and board of directors. The Adviser considers these factors both while the company is on the watch list and also at the time of purchase. Not all companies, at the time of purchase, are on the Adviser’s watch list, and a company may be added to the Fund’s portfolio following a precipitating event.

When added to the Fund’s portfolio, a company will generally be trading at a significant discount to its 52-week or all-time high. The Adviser’s contrarian approach, buying what it believes are fundamentally sound companies that are out-of-favor with the market, is industry, sector and market capitalization agnostic, and typically involves the securities of fewer than thirty issuers.

Portfolio Developments

Pfizer and Bayer are two Fund holdings:

●

Pfizer is a global biopharmaceutical company. In the Fund’s most recent semi-annual period, the Company had two noteworthy accomplishments. First, Pfizer, and its German partner, received regulatory approval for its COVID-19 vaccine. In addition, Pfizer completed the separation of its off-patent drug business by combining it with Mylan to create publicly-traded Viatris. The Fund continues to hold Viatris shares received in the transaction. The Adviser believes these achievements will act as catalysts for the market to re-evaluate Pfizer as a more focused company with prospects for sustainable organic growth.

●

Bayer is a life sciences company focused on health care and nutrition. Bayer’s legal challenges with its Monsanto acquisition have been well-documented. Moreover, Bayer has struggled to implement a comprehensive Monsanto legal settlement. The Adviser

purchased Bayer shares for the Fund after the Monsanto acquisition and the related legal exposure became known. The Adviser believes that Bayer will ultimately cobble together a solution to its Monsanto legal woes.

In closing, I want to thank shareholders for their confidence in the Fund’s Adviser. The Adviser continues to assess companies that fit the Fund’s investment approach.

ADLER VALUE FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

November 30, 2020 (Unaudited)

Organization

Adler Value Fund (the “Fund”) is a non-diversified series of Ultimus Managers Trust (the “Trust”), an open-end investment company established as an Ohio business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated February 28, 2012. Other series of the Trust are not incorporated in this report. The Fund commenced operations on August 16, 2018.

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to achieve long-term growth of capital.

The Fund currently offers one class of shares: Institutional Class shares (sold without any sales loads or distribution fees and subject to a $1,000,000 initial investment requirement). As of November 30, 2020, the Investor Class shares (to be sold without any sales loads, but subject to a distribution fee of up to 0.25% of Investor Class’ average daily net assets and subject to a $2,500 initial investment requirement) are not currently offered. When both classes are offered, each share class will represent an ownership interest in the same investment portfolio.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Fund follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” The following is a summary of the Fund’s significant accounting policies used in preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Securities valuation – The Fund values its portfolio securities at market value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day the NYSE is open for business. The Fund generally values its listed securities on the basis of the security’s last sale price on the security’s primary exchange, if available, otherwise at the exchange’s most recently quoted mean price. NASDAQ-listed securities are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Option contracts are valued at the closing price on the exchanges on which they are primarily traded; if no closing price is available at the time of valuation, the option will be valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask prices for that day. Investments representing shares of money market funds and other open-end investment companies not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value (“NAV”) as reported by such companies. When using a quoted price and when the market is considered active, the security will be classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy (see next page). In the event that market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable due to market or other events, the Fund values its securities and other assets at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”). Under these procedures, the securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used. Unavailable or unreliable market quotes may be due to the following factors: a substantial bid-ask spread; infrequent sales resulting in stale prices; insufficient trading volume; small trade sizes; a temporary lapse in any

ADLER VALUE FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

reliable pricing source; and actions of the securities or futures markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading. As a result, the prices of securities used to calculate the Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

GAAP establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures 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 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

●

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs

●

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs

The inputs or methods used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. 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.

The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments based on the inputs used to value the investments as of November 30, 2020:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Common Stocks	$	2,153,164	$	—	$	—	$	2,153,164
Purchased Option Contracts		11,800		70,213		—		82,013
Money Market Funds		397,281		—		—		397,281
Total	$	2,562,245	$	70,213	$	—	$	2,632,458

Refer to the Fund’s Schedule of Investments for a listing of the common stocks by sector and industry type. The Fund did not have any assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of or during the six months ended November 30, 2020.

Share valuation – The NAV per share of each class of the Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of the assets attributable to that class, less liabilities attributable to that class, by the number of shares outstanding of that class. The offering price and redemption price per share of each class of the Fund is equal to the NAV per share of such class.

Investment income – Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the security received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, if any, have been recorded in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

ADLER VALUE FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

Investment transactions – Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on a specific identification basis.

Common expenses – Common expenses of the Trust are allocated among the Fund and the other series of the Trust based on the relative net assets of each series, the number of series in the Trust, or the nature of the services performed and the relative applicability to each series.

Distributions to shareholders – Distributions to shareholders arising from net investment income and realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually to shareholders. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. For the ten months ended May 31, 2020, the tax character of distributions paid to shareholders was ordinary income. There were no distributions paid to shareholders during the periods ended November 30, 2020 and July 31, 2019.

On December 28, 2020, the Fund paid an ordinary income dividend of $0.3053 per share to shareholders of record on December 24, 2020.

Purchased option contracts – The Fund may use option contracts in any manner consistent with its investment objectives and as long as its use is consistent with relevant provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Fund may use options for speculative purposes as well as for the purpose of seeking to reduce the overall investment risk that would otherwise be associated with the securities in which the Fund invests. When the Fund purchases a call or put option, an amount equal to the total premium (the premium plus the commission) paid by the Fund is recorded as an asset on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities and is subsequently marked-to-market daily. Premiums paid in the purchase of options which expire are treated as realized losses. Premiums paid in the purchase of call options which are exercised increase the cost of the security purchased. Premiums paid in the purchase of put options which are exercised decrease the proceeds used to calculate the realized capital gain or loss on the sale of the security.

Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increase (decrease) in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Federal income tax – The Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Qualification generally will relieve the Fund of liability for federal income taxes to the extent 100% of its net investment income and net realized capital gains are distributed in accordance with the Code.

ADLER VALUE FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also the Fund’s intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the 12 months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years.

The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of November 30, 2020:

Tax cost of portfolio investments	$	2,203,306
Gross unrealized appreciation	$	506,274
Gross unrealized depreciation		(77,122	)
Net unrealized appreciation		429,152
Accumulated ordinary income		34,509
Accumulated capital and other losses		(3,066	)
Accumulated earnings	$	460,595

As of May 31, 2020, the Fund had a long-term capital loss carryforward of $1,793 for federal income tax purposes, which may be carried forward indefinitely. This capital loss carryforward is available to offset net realized gains in the current and future years, thereby reducing future taxable gains.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits or expenses of uncertain tax positions only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the Fund’s tax positions for the current open tax periods (generally, three years) and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdiction as U.S. federal.

Investment Transactions

During the six months ended November 30, 2020, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities, other than short-term investments, were $545,465 and $0, respectively.

Transactions with Related Parties

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

The Fund’s investments are managed by Adler Asset Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) pursuant to the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays the Adviser an investment advisory fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% of its average daily net assets.

Pursuant to an Expense Limitation Agreement (“ELA”) between the Fund and the Adviser, the Adviser has agreed, until December 1, 2021, to reduce its investment advisory fees and reimburse other expenses to limit total annual operating expenses (exclusive of brokerage costs; taxes; interest; borrowing costs such as interest and dividends expenses on securities sold short; costs to organize the Fund; acquired fund fees and expenses; and extraordinary

expenses such as litigation and merger or reorganization costs and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business) to an amount not exceeding 1.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets of the Institutional Class shares. Accordingly, during the six months ended November 30, 2020, the Adviser did not collect any of its investment advisory fees and reimbursed other operating expenses totaling $80,592.

Under the terms of the ELA, investment advisory fee reductions and expense reimbursements by the Adviser are subject to repayment by the Fund for a period of three years after such fees and expenses were incurred, provided that the repayments do not cause the Fund’s total annual operating expenses to exceed the lesser of (i) the expense limitation then in effect, if any, and (ii) the expense limitation in effect at the time the expenses to be repaid were incurred. As of November 30, 2020, the Adviser may seek recoupment of investment advisory fee reductions and expense reimbursements no later than the dates as stated below:

July 31, 2022	$	134,855
May 31, 2023		142,930
November 30, 2023		89,783
Total	$	367,568

OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS

Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“Ultimus”) provides administration, fund accounting, compliance and transfer agency services to the Fund. The Fund pays Ultimus fees in accordance with the agreements for such services. In addition, the Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies, and certain costs related to the pricing of the Fund’s portfolio securities.

Under the terms of a Distribution Agreement with the Trust, Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as principal underwriter to the Fund. The Distributor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultimus. The Distributor is compensated by the Adviser (not the Fund) for acting as principal underwriter.

Certain officers and a Trustee of the Trust are also officers of Ultimus and the Distributor and are not paid by the Fund for serving in such capacities.

TRUSTEE COMPENSATION

Each member of the Board (a “Trustee”) who is not an “interested person” of the Trust (“Independent Trustee”) receives a $1,300 annual retainer from the Fund, paid quarterly, except for the Board Chairperson who receives a $1,500 annual retainer from the Fund, paid quarterly.

Contingencies and Commitments

The Fund indemnifies the Trust’s officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations, warranties, and general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Subsequent Events

��

The Fund is required to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed as of the date of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For non-recognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Fund is required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Management has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of these financial statements and has noted no such events other than the ordinary income dividend paid on December 28, 2020, as discussed in Note 2.

LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (Unaudited)

The Fund has adopted and implemented a written liquidity risk management program (the “Program”) as required by Rule 22e-4 (the “Liquidity Rule”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Program is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration, among other factors, the 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. The Fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) approved the appointment of the Liquidity Administrator Committee, comprising of the Fund’s Adviser and certain Trust officers, to be responsible for the Program’s administration and oversight and for reporting to the Board on at least an annual basis regarding the Program’s operation and effectiveness. The annual written report assessing the Program (the “Report”) was presented to the Board at the October 19-20, 2020 Board meeting and covered the period from June 1, 2019 to May 31, 2020 (the “Review Period”).

During the Review Period, the Fund did not experience unusual stress or disruption to its operations related to purchase and redemption activity. Also, during the Review Period, the Fund held adequate levels of cash and highly liquid investments to meet shareholder redemption activities in accordance with applicable requirements. The Report concluded that the Program is reasonably designed to prevent violation of the Liquidity Rule and the Program has been effectively implemented.

ABOUT YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES (Unaudited)

We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your investment. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other operating expenses. The following examples are 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.

A mutual fund’s ongoing costs are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The expenses in the table below are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the most recent period (June 1, 2020) and held until the end of the period (November 30, 2020).

The table below illustrates the Fund’s ongoing costs in two ways:

Actual fund return – This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the Fund’s actual return, and the fourth column shows the dollar amount of operating expenses that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, 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 given for the Fund under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period.”

Hypothetical 5% return – This section is intended to help you compare the Fund’s ongoing costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses during the period shown, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the return used is not the Fund’s actual return, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess the Fund’s ongoing costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Note that expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only. The Fund does not charge sales loads.

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

More information about the Fund’s expenses can be found in this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

EVOLUTIONARY TREE INNOVATORS FUND
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited)	November 30, 2020

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

Given this is our first letter, we welcome you as a new shareholder to the Evolutionary Tree Innovators Fund (the “Fund”). We will touch on our investment approach, why we focus on innovation and not the markets, and conclude by providing a brief performance update. We are pleased that the Fund is off to a strong start in 2020.

How Our Approach Enables Investors to Benefit from the Power of Innovation

Everyone senses the power of innovation in their lives but struggles to find appropriate ways to invest in innovative businesses driving change. The Evolutionary Tree Innovators Fund was launched to provide an attractive pathway for investing in profound innovation and secular trends, or evolutionary shifts as we call them. The Fund and its adviser apply an innovation and evolution-focused framework to investing. We believe the development of innovation and its resultant pattern of evolutionary change is the primary engine of growth for companies, industries, and the economy—and, in turn, is the underlying driver of long-term wealth creation.

The Fund seeks to identify important innovations that are driving secular growth and evolutionary shifts for companies, industries, and the economy, and own the leading innovators at the forefront. The Fund defines evolutionary shift as when an industry shifts from an old generation (of a product, service, or business model) over to a “next generation” or new offering that provides advantages versus the “old way” of doing things. The Fund invests in a focused portfolio of 25-35 leading innovative businesses.

Innovations that drive these evolutionary shifts come in many forms and can be found in all industries and sectors across the economy. Examples of innovations that we believe contribute to sustainable growth include technological innovation, product innovation, service or experience innovation, process or cost innovation, and/or business model innovation. In addition to contributing to sustaining growth for leading innovative businesses, new innovations may also enable innovators to take market share, create competitive advantage, and/or enhance profitability over time. Taken together, we believe that innovation is a fundamental root cause and driver of sustainable growth and value creation over time.

Why We Focus on Innovation, Not on Short-term Movements in the Markets or the Economy

The Evolutionary Tree Innovators Fund is meant for investors that are seeking capital appreciation over the long term. We define long term as sticking with your investments for many years. In the context of this long-term investing mindset, we believe that trying to predict short-term movements in the economy or the markets is largely futile and often counter-productive. As such, we believe shifting the focus toward identifying specific innovations creating positive impact for users and sustaining growth is a more repeatable process for adding value. Focus on innovation and ignore the short-term market chatter.

Looking at investing from an innovation-focused vantage-point, we strongly believe the current economic environment is highly conducive to a steady stream of important and profound innovations across the economy, particularly with industry after industry becoming tech-enabled through digital transformation. We describe the current era we live in as the Age of Innovation. It is the Fund’s mission to own a high-quality collection of leading and emerging innovators that may benefit from these dynamics. Our increasingly intellectual capital-based economy is generating a growing number of innovative businesses in a variety of industries, most notably in technology, life sciences, fintech, and digital consumer spaces.

Investment Results and Contributors and Detractors to Performance

Evolutionary Tree Innovators Fund (INVNX) launched in early September 2020, so the investment results are very short term. The Fund is a long-term focused strategy with a time horizon that is measured in years (typically 3-7 years). As such, short-term performance is less meaningful than long-term results. However, we are pleased to report that the Fund is off to a good start, with strong absolute and relative investment results to date. The Fund was up +24.40% from the launch date through the end of November. This compares favorably to the benchmark S&P 500, which was up +6.95% over the same time period.

The top three contributors to performance in the period were HubSpot, Roku, and The Trade Desk. Contributors were generally companies providing cloud-based enterprise applications or digital consumer experiences and e-commerce services, which have benefited from the shifts to the cloud and e-commerce. The top three detractors were Revance, Ionis, and Dexcom. The primary detractors were life science companies, but we do not believe a change in administration will alter their long-term prospects. Both political parties tend to support healthcare innovation, especially for diseases with few or no alternatives, where we tend to focus our investments.

During 2020 and for the time period represented by these results, the investment environment has been quite positive for innovative businesses. We believe this dynamic is not a short-term one, but indicative of how the composition of the economy is changing—evolving—over long term. Many of the evolutionary shifts we identified and made prominent in the portfolio, including leading innovators in the fields of e-commerce, video streaming, cloud computing, and cybersecurity, among others, experienced acceleration due to the lockdowns throughout the year. However, we do not see these trends as temporary; rather, we believe these evolutionary shifts and associated changes in behavior are becoming permanent with years of growth runway ahead. We believe the portfolio is well positioned for the long term and owns a select group of leading and emerging innovators driving many of the most prominent secular changes in the economy.

Thanks for joining the growing community of investors embracing innovation investing and the Evolutionary Tree Innovators Fund. We wish you all the best in the New Year,

Thomas Ricketts, CFA
Portfolio Manager

The Letter to Shareholders seeks to describe some of the Adviser’s current opinions and views of the financial markets and specific holdings. Although the Adviser believes it has a reasonable basis for any opinions or views expressed, actual results may differ, sometimes significantly so, from those expected or expressed. The securities held by the Fund that are discussed in the Letter to Shareholders were held during the period covered by this Report. They do not comprise the entire investment portfolio of the Fund, may be sold at any time, and may no longer be held by the Fund. For a complete list of securities held by the Fund as of November 30, 2020, please see the Schedule of Investments section of this Report. The opinions of the Fund’s Adviser with respect to those securities may change at any time.

Statements in the Letter to Shareholders that reflect projections or expectations for future financial or economic performance of the Fund and the market in general and statements of the Fund’s plans and objectives for future operations are forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given that actual results or events will not differ materially from those projected, estimated, assumed, or anticipated in any such forward- looking statements. Important factors that could result in such differences, in addition to factors noted with such forward-looking statements include, without limitation, general economic conditions, such as inflation, recession, and interest rates. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

EVOLUTIONARY TREE INNOVATORS FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

November 30, 2020 (Unaudited)

Organization

Evolutionary Tree Innovators Fund (the “Fund”) is a non-diversified series of Ultimus Managers Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is an open-end management investment company established as an Ohio business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated February 28, 2012. Other series of the Trust are not incorporated in this report. The Fund commenced operations on September 9, 2020.

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to achieve long-term growth of capital.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Fund follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” The following is a summary of the Fund’s significant accounting policies used in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Securities valuation – The Fund values its portfolio securities at market value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each business day the NYSE is open for business. The Fund values its listed securities on the basis of the security’s last sale price on the security’s primary exchange, if available, otherwise at the exchange’s most recently quoted mean price. NASDAQ-listed securities are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. When using a quoted price and when the market for the security is considered active, the security will be classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy (see below). In the event that market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable due to market or other events, the Fund values its securities and other assets at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Under these procedures, the securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used. Unavailable or unreliable market quotes may be due to the following factors: a substantial bid-ask spread; infrequent sales resulting in stale prices; insufficient trading volume; small trade sizes; a temporary lapse in any reliable pricing source; and actions of the securities or futures markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading. As a result, the prices of securities used to calculate the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

GAAP establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures 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 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

EVOLUTIONARY TREE INNOVATORS FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

●

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs

●

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs

The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments based on the inputs used to value the investments as of November 30, 2020, by security type:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Common Stocks	$	23,254,279	$	—	$	—	$	23,254,279
Money Market Funds		316,840		—		—		316,840
Total	$	23,571,119	$	—	$	—	$	23,571,119

Refer to the Fund’s Schedule of Investments for a listing of the common stocks by sector and industry type. The Fund did not hold any derivative instruments or any assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of or during the period ended November 30, 2020.

Share valuation – The NAV per share of the Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of the Fund’s assets, less liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share of the Fund is equal to the NAV per share.

Investment income – Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the security received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been recorded in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

Investment transactions – Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on a specific identification basis.

Distributions to shareholders – The Fund distributes to shareholders any net investment income dividends and net realized capital gains on an annual basis. The amount of such dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax

EVOLUTIONARY TREE INNOVATORS FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. There were no distributions paid to shareholders by the Fund during the period ended November 30, 2020.

Federal income tax – The Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Qualification generally will relieve the Fund of liability for federal income taxes to the extent 100% of its net investment income and net realized capital gains are distributed in accordance with the Code.

In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also the Fund’s intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year equal to at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years.

The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of November 30, 2020:

Tax cost of portfolio investments	$	20,785,739
Gross unrealized appreciation	$	2,914,512
Gross unrealized depreciation		(129,132	)
Net unrealized appreciation		2,785,380
Accumulated ordinary loss		(19,369	)
Other losses		(195	)
Accumulated earnings	$	2,765,816

The difference between the federal income tax cost of portfolio investments and the financial statement cost of portfolio investments is due to certain timing differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses under income tax regulations and GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are temporary in nature and are primarily due to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits or expenses of uncertain tax positions only when the position is “more likely than not” of being sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the Fund’s tax positions for the current tax year and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal.

Investment Transactions

During the period ended November 30, 2020, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities, other than short-term investments, amounted to $20,504,772 and $35,678, respectively.

Transactions with Related Parties

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

The Fund’s investments are managed by Evolutionary Tree Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) pursuant to the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement. The Fund pays the Adviser a management fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 0.80% of average daily net assets.

Pursuant to an Expense Limitation Agreement (“ELA”) between the Fund and the Adviser, the Adviser has agreed contractually, until October 31, 2023, to reduce its management fees and reimburse other expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual fund operating expenses (exclusive brokerage costs, taxes, interest, borrowing costs such as interest and dividend expenses on securities sold short, costs to organize the Fund, acquired fund fees and expenses, extraordinary expenses such as litigation and merger or reorganization costs and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business) to an amount not exceeding 0.97% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Accordingly, the Adviser did not collect any of its management fees and, in addition, reimbursed other operating expenses totaling $26,960 during the period ended November 30, 2020.

Under the terms of the ELA, management fee reductions and/or expense reimbursements by the Adviser are subject to repayment by the Fund for a period of three years after such date that fees and expenses were incurred, provided that the repayments do not cause total annual fund operating expenses to exceed (i) the expense limitation then in effect, if any, and (ii) the expense limitation in effect at the time the expenses to be repaid were incurred. Prior to October 31, 2023, this agreement may not be modified or terminated without the approval of the Fund’s Board of Trustees. This agreement will terminate automatically if the Fund’s investment advisory agreement with the Adviser is terminated. As of November 30, 2020, the Adviser may seek repayment of management fee reductions and expense reimbursements in the amount of $43,287 no later than November 30, 2023.

OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS

Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“Ultimus”) provides administration, fund accounting, compliance and transfer agency services to the Fund. The Fund pays Ultimus fees in accordance with the agreements for such services. In addition, the Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies and certain costs related to the pricing of the Fund’s portfolio securities.

EVOLUTIONARY TREE INNOVATORS FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Certain officers and a Trustee of the Trust are also officers of Ultimus and the Distributor.

TRUSTEE COMPENSATION

Each Trustee who is not an “interested person” of the Trust (“Independent Trustee”) receives a $1,300 annual retainer from the Fund, paid quarterly, except for the Board Chairperson who receives a $1,500 annual retainer from the Fund, paid quarterly. Each Independent Trustee also receives from the Fund a fee of $500 for each Board meeting attended plus reimbursement for travel and other meeting-related expenses.

PRINCIPAL HOLDER OF FUND SHARES

As of November 30, 2020, the following shareholder owned of record more than 25% of the outstanding shares of the Fund:

NAME OF RECORD OWNER		% Ownership
Charles Schwab & Co. (for the benefit of its customers)		74%

Contingencies and Commitments

The Fund indemnifies the Trust’s officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Non-Diversification Risk

The Fund is a non-diversified Fund. As a result, the Fund’s holdings may be more concentrated in a limited number of securities and the value of its shares may be more sensitive than a diversified fund to any single economic, business, political, or regulatory occurrence.

EVOLUTIONARY TREE INNOVATORS FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Sector Risk

If a Fund has significant investments in the securities of issuers within a particular sector, any development affecting that sector will have a greater impact on the value of the net assets of the Fund than would be the case if the Fund did not have significant investments in that sector. In addition, this may increase the risk of loss in the Fund and increase the volatility of the Fund’s NAV per share. Occasionally, market conditions, regulatory changes or other developments may negatively impact a particular sector. As of November 30, 2020, the Fund had 32.5% of the value of its net assets invested in stocks within the Technology sector.

Subsequent Events

ABOUT YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES (Unaudited)

We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your investment. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, and other operating expenses. The following examples are 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.

A mutual fund’s ongoing costs are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The expenses in the table below are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the most recent period (September 9, 2020) and held until the end of the period (November 30, 2020).

The table below illustrates the Fund’s ongoing costs in two ways:

DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT

ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including the Independent Trustees voting separately, has reviewed and approved the Fund’s Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Evolutionary Tree Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) for an initial two-year term. The Board approved the Agreement at a meeting held on April July 20-21, 2020, at which all of the Trustees were present.

Legal counsel advised the Board during its deliberations. Additionally, the Board received and reviewed a substantial amount of information provided by the Adviser in response to requests of the Board and counsel. In deciding whether to approve the Agreement, the Board recalled its discussion with the Adviser during the meeting and a prior meeting and its review of various materials related to the Advisor and the Fund. The Board further considered those materials and discussions and numerous other factors, including:

The nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser. In this regard, the Board considered the responsibilities the Adviser would have under the Agreement for the Fund. The Board also considered the proposed services that the Adviser would provide to the Fund including, without limitation, the Adviser’s procedures for formulating investment recommendations and assuring compliance with the Fund’s investment objective and limitations, proposed initial marketing and distribution efforts, and the Adviser’s compliance procedures and practices. After reviewing the foregoing and further information provided in the board materials for the meeting regarding the Fund (e.g., descriptions of the Adviser’s business and Form ADV), the Board concluded that the quality, extent, and nature of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Fund were satisfactory and adequate.

The investment management capabilities and experience of the Adviser. In this regard, the Board considered the investment management experience of the Adviser and its principal. The Board considered its discussion with the Adviser regarding the investment objective and strategies for the Fund and the Adviser’s experience and plans for implementing such strategies. In particular, the Board considered the information from the Adviser regarding prior experience in the financial industry by the Adviser and its principals. After consideration of these and other factors, the Board determined that the Adviser has the requisite knowledge and experience to serve as investment adviser for the Fund.

The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund. In this regard, the Board considered the Adviser’s methods of operation; the education and experience of the Adviser’s staff, including its principal; its compliance program, policies, and procedures; its financial condition and the level of commitment to the Fund; the projected asset levels of the Fund; and the overall expenses of the Fund, including the advisory fee. The Board reviewed the Fund’s expense limitation agreement (“ELA”) and noted the benefit to the Fund from the Adviser’s commitment to reduce its advisory fee and reimburse other operating expenses through October 31, 2023. The Board discussed the Adviser’s financial condition and its

EVOLUTIONARY TREE INNOVATORS FUND

DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT

ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (Continued)

ability to satisfy its financial commitments to the Fund. The Board also considered potential benefits for the Adviser in managing the Fund, including promotion of the Adviser’s name. The Board compared the Fund’s proposed advisory fee and overall expense ratio to other comparable funds (in terms of the type of fund, the style of investment management, the projected size of the Fund, and the nature of the investment strategies).

The Board noted that the Fund’s advisory fee of 0.85% is above the average and the median for its custom peer group and its proposed overall annual expense ratio of 1.00% is above the average and equal to the median for its custom peer group. Upon further consideration and discussion of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the proposed advisory fee and total expense limit for the Fund were within the range of what would have been negotiated at arms-length in light of all the surrounding circumstances and were fair and reasonable.

The extent to which the Fund and its investors would benefit from economies of scale. In this regard, the Board considered the Fund’s ELA. The Board determined that while the proposed advisory fee rate was flat and would stay the same as asset levels increased, the shareholders of the Fund would benefit from the ELA until the Fund’s assets grew to a level where its expenses otherwise fall below the expense limit. Following further discussion of the Fund’s projected asset levels, expectations for growth, and level of fees, the Board determined that the Fund’s fee arrangements with the Adviser would provide benefits through the next three years, and the Board could review the arrangements going forward as necessary. After further discussion, the Board concluded the Fund’s arrangement with the Adviser was fair and reasonable in relation to the nature and quality of services to be provided by the Adviser and would benefit the Fund and its shareholders.

Brokerage and portfolio transactions. The Board considered the Adviser’s policies and procedures as they relate to seeking best execution for its clients. The Board also considered the anticipated portfolio turnover rate for the Fund; the method and basis for selecting and evaluating broker-dealers used to complete the Fund’s portfolio transactions; any anticipated allocation of portfolio business to persons affiliated with the Adviser; and the extent to which the Fund’s trades may be allocated to soft-dollar arrangements. After further review and discussion, the Board determined that the Adviser’s practices regarding brokerage and portfolio transactions for the Fund were satisfactory.

Possible conflicts of interest. In evaluating the possibility for conflicts of interest, the Board considered such matters as the experience and abilities of the advisory personnel to be assigned to the Fund and the Adviser’s process for allocating trades among the Fund and potential future clients with similar types of investment objectives and strategies. The Board also considered the substance and administration of the Adviser’s Code of Ethics. Following further consideration and discussion, the Board determined that the Adviser’s standards and practices relating to the identification and mitigation of potential conflicts of interests for the Fund were satisfactory.

ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (Continued)

After further discussion of the factors noted above and in reliance on the information provided by the Adviser and Trust management, and taking into account the totality of all the factors discussed and information presented, the Board indicated its agreement to approve the Agreement. It was noted that in the Trustees’ deliberations regarding the approval of the Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and that each individual Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors listed above. After full consideration of the above factors as well as other factors, the Board unanimously concluded that approval of the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited)	January 6, 2021

Dear Shareholder,

In October 2010, almost 200 governments agreed upon a Strategic Plan for Biodiversity and the Aichi Biodiversity Targets for the 2011-2020 period, which was declared to be the United Nations Decade on Biodiversity. This plan provided an overarching framework on biodiversity, not only for the biodiversity-related conventions, but for the entire United Nations system and all other partners engaged in biodiversity management and policy development.¹ The Aichi Targets are comprised of twenty specific targets structured around five biodiversity goals with the following overarching mission:

Take effective and urgent action to halt the loss of biodiversity in order to ensure that by 2020 ecosystems are resilient and continue to provide essential services, thereby securing the planet’s variety of life, and contributing to human well-being, and poverty eradication. To ensure this, pressures on biodiversity are reduced, ecosystems are restored, biological resources are sustainably used and benefits arising out of utilization of genetic resources are shared in a fair and equitable manner; adequate financial resources are provided, capacities are enhanced, biodiversity issues and values mainstreamed, appropriate policies are effectively implemented, and decision-making is based on sound science and the precautionary approach.²

Since our last report to you, the Global Biodiversity Outlook 5 (GBO-5) report prepared by the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity concluded that the international community failed to meet fully any of the Aichi Targets and only six of the targets were even partly achieved. The report indicates that some progress was made with respect to the expansion of protected areas and the eradication of some invasive species. A number of nations have also initiated new measures to reduce deforestation and there is an overall increased awareness of the importance of biodiversity. According to the report, the “number of extinctions of birds and mammals would likely have been at least two to four times higher without [the] conservation actions over the past decade, [but species nevertheless] continue to move, on average, closer to extinction.”³ Especially troubling is the fact that, during the United Nations Decade on Biodiversity, annual funding available for projects to work toward the Aichi Targets fell far short of the amounts needed to actually achieve those targets and were but a small fraction of the funding for projects harmful to biodiversity. As a society, we are now called upon to take bold action at the upcoming COP15 Convention on Biological Diversity in China where the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework will be adopted. This latest plan to save life on Earth “aims to galvanize urgent and transformative action by governments and all of society, including

indigenous peoples and local communities, civil society and businesses [emphasis added]…to implement broad-based action to bring about a transformation in society’s relationship with biodiversity and to ensure that, by 2050, the shared vision of living in harmony with nature is fulfilled.”³

With approximately half of the world’s GDP being moderately or highly dependent upon ecosystem services, the mitigation and reversal of biodiversity loss and climate change will require visionary leadership from the business community.⁴ A recent study estimates that corporate capital expenditures totaling hundreds of billions of dollars annually over the next decade will be needed to transition companies operating in industries with high biodiversity impacts toward more sustainable business models that will preserve nature and its ecosystems.⁵ The realization of these new nature-oriented business models will require persistent imagination-inspired creative innovation to address the five key drivers of biodiversity loss, which are (i) irresponsible land and ocean use, (ii) exploitation and over-use of species, (iii) climate change, (iv) pollution and (v) invasive and introduced species. Fortunately, the business community has a long history of innovating in precisely this way and is therefore uniquely positioned to achieve the societal transformation that we need in the timeframe that we need it.

The focus on nature-based innovation is central to our management of the Fund. The Fund is grounded in the belief that innovative companies focused on problem-solving and best practices relating to biodiversity preservation, environmental protection, climate change mitigation and animal welfare can better position their businesses for growth and success in today’s marketplace. Utilizing a rigorous proprietary research process, KBC evaluates publicly-traded companies in almost every sector of the economy based on their biodiversity policies, practices, and performance. Our in-house academic research team develops and applies industry-specific frameworks to build an investable universe of forward-looking companies that integrate ecological protection, biodiversity preservation, and animal habitat conservation into their business operations and supply chains. Our investment team then applies bottom-up, fundamental financial analysis to assess companies in KBC’s investable universe on growth, profitability, valuation and balance sheet metrics to create a diversified portfolio of publicly-traded equity securities and American Depositary Receipts characterized by both robust sustainability practices and financial prospects. KBC believes that forward-looking companies that aggressively implement measures to address the planet’s biodiversity crisis have the potential to be more resilient while enabling investors to benefit from business transformations that form the foundation for a prosperous future.

The Fund’s stock selection during the six-month period ended November 30, 2020 (the “Reporting Period”) was slightly beneficial with Tesla, Inc., Fortescue Metals Group Ltd. ADR and NVIDIA Corp. again ranking among the Fund’s best performers. Our views with respect to these companies have not materially changed from the comments we shared in the Fund’s Annual Report for the period ended May 31, 2020. We maintain a constructive outlook on each company, but as a risk mitigation measure, we trimmed the Fund’s position in Tesla as share prices climbed.

Sector allocation was responsible for the Fund’s underperformance during the Reporting Period. In an environment dominated by heightened economic and financial uncertainty related to COVID-19, the Fund maintained a higher-than-normal cash allocation during most of the period, which weighed on performance in a rising market environment and accounted for more than one-third of the underperformance for the period. The remaining underperformance resulted from the Fund’s underweight allocations to the Consumer Cyclical and Technology sectors and overweight allocations to the Energy and Utility sectors. The Fund’s overweight allocation to the Consumer Defensive sector also significantly hurt performance, but that was offset by its overweight allocation to the Basic Materials sector.

Within the Basic Materials sector, Freeport-McMoRan, Inc. was a top performer during the Reporting Period. Freeport reported Q3 non-GAAP EPS of $0.32 and GAAP EPS of $0.51, which beat expectations by $0.01 and $0.19, respectively, with lighter-than-expected quarterly revenue of $2.37 billion. The company saw a 6.6% YOY surge in Q3 copper sales volumes, which significantly exceeded management’s forecast from the prior quarter. Freeport-McMoRan Inc. is also a top performer with respect to site reclamation and rehabilitation efforts using data collected prior to and during ore extraction to tailor revegetation specifically to local wildlife. For example, near one of Freeport’s two Colorado mines, the company created a wetland habitat for the boreal toad, and, in Arizona, Freeport worked with both Bat Conservation International to create a bat-compatible gate at a cave populated with Mexican free-tailed bats and with the Arizona Fish and Game Department to relocate the declining population of big-horn sheep to an area unaffected by its mines. Despite disturbing hundreds of hectares of land each year, since 2015 the company has rehabilitated land at an even faster pace such that its total land disturbed and not rehabilitated during the period from 2015 through 2018 decreased by nearly 2,000 hectares. Freeport has prepared a booklet entitled “Mining Reclamation in North America” that describes the company’s site reclamation efforts as part of its overall commitment to a sustainable future. The booklet explains the scope of the research that is needed to support site reclamation as follows:

By studying different forms of vegetation, we aim to better understand the response and establishment of vegetation on reclaimed land. This involves research to learn site-specific criteria for improving revegetation efforts on reclaimed land relative to species planted as well as the timing and method of planting. Currently, annual surveys are conducted at six different sites in Arizona. Surveys include collecting data on species present, species frequency, vegetation density, canopy cover and vegetation changes over time. In addition to studying vegetation dynamics on reclaimed land, native undisturbed comparable sites are also evaluated annually. By studying areas with similar soils, we seek to create seed mix that may enhance revegetation efforts.

As a member of the Wildlife Habitat Council (WHC) since 2006, Freeport engages in 15 WHC certification programs in the U.S., Chile, Peru and Indonesia, including 11 that have achieved Gold-Certified status which signifies excellence in conservation activities. One program is conducted at the company’s Unidad de Producción Cerro Verde mine located in the Atacama Desert in Peru, the world’s driest desert and home to a unique community of plants and animals adapted to the hyperarid conditions. Approximately 146,000 acres, or about 40 percent of the total land area of the mine, is reserved as habitat for biodiversity. The Weberbauer cactus, an important food source for many species in the region, is carefully managed and induced to flower to benefit Peruvian long-snouted bats which feed on the nectar and provide important pollination services. Site employees also relocate at-risk species, control non-native animals that compete for resources, enhance water and food sources, and collect data to inform future conservation activities as part of Freeport’s comprehensive effort to protect several lizard and avian species, including the tiger Pacific iguana, South American leaf-toed gecko, the black metaltail hummingbird, the cactus canastero and the white-throated earthcreeper. Another program is operated at Freeport’s Grasberg mine in Papua, Indonesia, which is the world’s second largest copper

and gold mine. Approximately 90 percent of the site is comprised of unimpacted natural ecosystems with high levels of biodiversity spanning a range of natural “carbon sinks” that include mangrove forest, freshwater swamp forest, lowland tropical rain forest, heath forest and montane forest. The site benefits from employee efforts to recolonize native species, plant mangrove seedlings and share expertise through extensive conservation education programs.

During the Reporting Period, the Fund also benefitted from gains in the renewable energy industry with key contributions from First Solar, Inc. and Orsted A/S ADR. After seeing revenues fall at the onset of the pandemic, First Solar posted two consecutive strong earnings results that beat expectations with Q3 revenue growing 70% YOY to $928M. The company develops solar farms and manufactures cadmium telluride solar modules, which use a thin-film technology that is less costly to manufacture, but also less efficient than the crystalline silicon technology used by its competitors. First Solar implements robust vegetation management standards in its solar farm development operations, including invasive species control, native plant revegetation and monitoring, and re-planting protected plants. The company also uses innovative soil preparation techniques to maintain native seeds in the soil that increase the likelihood of natural rehabilitation.

Orsted is a developer and operator of offshore and onshore wind farms as well as bioenergy plants and waste-to-energy solutions that are on the forefront of the energy transition toward a greener future. The company recently increased the green share of the company’s heat and power generation from 83% to 89% and completed its transformation into a global renewable energy company with the divestment of its Danish power distribution, residential customer and city light businesses. The company’s stock price gains this year have been powered by its strong balance sheet, which has enabled it to weather the COVID-19 crisis better than many of its leveraged rivals that have been forced to withdraw bids for some new renewable energy contracts. Orsted also recently announced a partnership with British Petroleum to develop a wind-powered technology that can produce hydrogen from water. The project is being developed at one of BP’s oldest refineries and will be powered by Orsted’s offshore wind farm in the North Sea. The industrial-scale 50MW electrolyser, which splits water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen gas, will generate one ton of renewable hydrogen per hour and avoid roughly 80,000 tons of CO2 equivalent emissions per year at full capacity. The green hydrogen market has high growth potential with sales estimated to be as high as $11.7 trillion by 2050 as emission-intensive industrial operations ramp up decarbonization efforts.

The Fund’s positions in the textile and apparel industry also benefitted performance during the Reporting Period with notable contributions from Levi Strauss & Co., Nike Inc. and VF Corp. Due to investments in their digital sales channels these companies were especially well-positioned to take advantage of the shift to online shopping following the shutdown of brick-and-mortar retailers at the start of the pandemic. Levi Strauss reported a Q2 sequential quarterly revenue decline of 67%, but the company exceeded even its own Q3 expectations with e-commerce sales that doubled as a share of total revenue, which powered sequential quarterly revenue growth of 114% and non-GAAP EPS of $0.08, trouncing expectations of a $0.22 loss. Cotton comprises 91 percent of the raw materials used by Levi Strauss and, in 2019, the company sourced 83 percent of its cotton from sustainable sources. The company also introduced its new and innovative Wellthread™ line

in 2019, which is described in the company’s sustainability report as “the first commercial realization of ‘cottonized hemp,’ rain-fed hemp fiber that requires less water and pesticides to cultivate compared to cotton and that is treated in a way that softens the coarse fiber to make it look and feel indistinguishable from cotton.” The company’s efforts to reduce its water footprint also prompted it to develop an innovative Water<Less^TM production technique that can reduce water consumption during the denim finishing process by up to 96 percent. Levi Strauss further committed to reducing waste by promoting a circular economy through Cotton’s Blue Jeans Go Green^TM initiative, which collects used denim products to be recycled into building insulation. Levi Strauss supports the initiative by maintaining collection sites at its stores and rewarding participating customers with apparel discounts. The company’s popular Authorized Vintage collection featuring pre-worn, expertly repaired denim garments originally manufactured in the 1980s and 1990s is another example of a win-win that has produced an additional revenue stream while diverting waste and encouraging conscious consumption.

The key detractors during the Reporting Period were Intel Corp., Sprouts Farmers Market, Inc., and SAP SE ADR. Intel declined 22% from June 1, 2020 through November 16, 2020, when the Fund liquidated its entire position in the security following the company’s Q3 earnings report. Although the company reported sales and earnings in line with analyst estimates, it failed to adequately address the manufacturing challenges with its next generation 7-nanometer chip that first came to light during its Q2 earnings call. Intel’s diminished manufacturing prowess and chip delays gave credence to the view that Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. will be able to gain market share with its widely acclaimed 7 nanometer chip and secure a dominant position in the PC processor market.

Sprouts Farmers Market, Inc., a grocery store that focuses on providing natural, organic food products in the United States, also struggled during the Reporting Period and ultimately declined approximately 16 percent. The company reported Q3 non-GAAP EPS of $0.52 and GAAP EPS of $0.51, which beat expectations by $0.17 and $0.14, respectively, with quarterly revenue that grew 9.7% YOY to $1.58 billion. The company’s shares fared well during the initial market downturn as lockdown restrictions sent consumers flocking to grocery stores, but during the second half of the year growing investor confidence, fueled by positive vaccine news, shifted capital away from defensive securities into riskier assets. Sprouts Farmers Market is a steward in the food retail industry due to its environmentally-friendly product offerings and food waste diversion program, which donates all nutrient-rich and edible groceries that are otherwise unfit for sale to hunger relief agencies, to cattle ranches and dairy farms for use as animal feed, or for composting to produce nutrient-rich agricultural soil.

SAP SE was one of the Fund’s largest detractors during the Reporting Period, suffering a 23 percent swoon after the company reported its Q3 earnings results. Following the decline SAP Chairman and co-founder, Hasso Plattner, acquired $294 million of additional SAP shares bringing his total stake in the company to more than $8 billion. Although the company posted non-GAAP EPS of €1.70, beating estimates by €0.40, market sentiment turned bearish due to YOY sales declines and lowered guidance for its cloud-software business through 2025 due in part to “investment delays” in several industries impacted by the pandemic. The company is heavily exposed to the decline in business travel through its Concur expense-accounting and travel-booking platform. We

expect these business lines will recover as the pandemic ebbs and believe that SAP is otherwise well-positioned for a post-pandemic world in which digital transformation will likely be a key driver of IT spending. SAP’s entrenched client base, expanded partnership with NTT and significant investments in its S/4HANA enterprise resource planning (ERP) system should enable it to deliver value-added solutions that leverage artificial intelligence, allow for both private and hybrid cloud environments, and provide real-time processing, in-memory databases and advanced analytics. SAP’s technology has also been transformative with respect to elephant anti-poaching efforts and helps to minimize human/elephant conflict. Through the use of cloud integration and Big Data, coupled with unmanned aviation vehicles, SAP is able to monitor and track elephants, ensuring that the elephants stay inside reserve boundaries and away from human threat. SAP also works with non-profit tech start-up Rainforest Connection to combat illegal logging which is a significant contributor to deforestation and climate change. Rainforest Connection uses old cell phones to record and stream forest sounds to the cloud where they are evaluated in real time to determine if chainsaws or loggers are present. The non-profit even has the ability to predict deforestation before it occurs based on the animal sounds that it collects and analyzes. SAP’s technology also supports other groups, including Barcode of Life, LifeScanner, Northern Beaches Council and indigenous people of the Amazon, in their efforts to preserve Earth’s biodiversity.

OUTLOOK

We see the performance of the global economy and the performance of the financial markets moving along separate trajectories. Currently there is a profound dichotomy between those trajectories, with the Fund’s benchmark at a level that is approximately 11 percent higher than its pre-recession levels while the U.S. and Eurozone economies experienced estimated GDP declines of 3.5% and 7.8%, respectively, in 2020. While the reopening of national economies across the globe spurred a sharp economic rebound that resulted in a brief mid-2020 convergence, the development of efficacious vaccines later in the year caused the financial trajectory to again outpace the economic trajectory. Since the economic benefit of COVID-19 inoculations will take some time to materialize, we believe that further significant convergence will most likely not occur until the second half of 2021 and the pace of that convergence may slow as the long-term impacts of the 2020 recession become more readily apparent.

The financial market trajectory that took several major stock market indexes to all-time highs last year is supported by certain key expectations. These expectations include (i) an extended, years-long period of easy monetary policy both in the U.S. and Europe supported by the continued use of quantitative easing tools and the introduction of the Federal Reserve’s new average inflation targeting policy, (ii) further fiscal stimulus under the Biden Administration that will provide fuel for continued consumer spending, which accounted for approximately 70 percent of U.S. GDP prior to COVID-19; (iii) the widespread availability of effective COVID-19 vaccines that achieve herd immunity during the first half of 2021; (iv) the continuation of subdued consumer price inflation; and (v) a relatively stable U.S. Dollar exchange rate. As long as these expectations continue to be met, there exists a reasonable pathway that could enable the world to return to something resembling pre-COVID-19 normality while maintaining liquidity support for the financial markets, which we believe is a risk-on scenario that would provide continued support for

prevailing lofty P/E multiples. But there exist a number of potential roadblocks along that pathway. First, the Federal Reserve’s excessively loose monetary policy or a disorderly decline in the value of the U.S. Dollar could cause consumer price inflation to rise faster than anticipated and drive U.S. interest rates higher. Second, frothy stock market valuations and housing market prices, together with debt levels relative to GDP not seen since WWII, could spark investor concerns over excessive leverage and the potential for economic and financial retrenchment. Third, the recent spread of at least two more highly transmissible mutated variants of SARS-CoV-2 could cause healthcare systems to buckle under the burden of the pandemic and force politicians to reimpose widespread lockdowns such as the one recently implemented by Prime Minister Johnson in the United Kingdom. Fourth, the earlier-than-anticipated cessation of the Federal Reserve’s emergency lending programs for corporations, small businesses, cities and states could trigger unanticipated defaults or heightened liquidity concerns. Finally, a range of simmering international tensions could boil over and cause a flight to safety, including escalating trade tensions with China that prompts the sale of a significant portion of its U.S. Treasury holdings, Iranian retaliation in response to the assassination of its top nuclear scientist, and a further deterioration of U.S. relations with Russia stemming from its eight month long cyber-attack on the U.S. government and U.S. corporations.

Given the trauma that the world has suffered over the past year, it is somewhat surprising that the global economic outlook is arguably better at the start of 2021 than it was at the start of 2020. In 2019, global GDP expanded at the slowest annual rate since the 2008 financial crisis amid growing concerns for the year ahead. The U.S. economy completed its tenth consecutive year of economic expansion sustained by three Federal Reserve rate cuts during the second half of the year following a yield curve inversion that proved to be a harbinger of the ensuing recession. The European Central Bank also worked to boost economic activity by launching a quantitative easing program. Global trade tensions, especially between the U.S. and China, were high which weighed on trade volumes and industrial production as rising caution delayed purchases of equipment, machinery and durable goods. However, persistently strong consumer spending propped up a fairly tight labor market.

Although global GDP is estimated to have declined by about 4.2% in 2020, the consensus outlook for global GDP growth in 2021 is approximately 5.4% – much higher than the forecasted annual global GDP growth rate at the start of 2020. Significantly, the U.S. Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) and the Eurozone PMI stood at 57.5 and 53.8, respectively, in November 2020 compared to contractionary readings substantially below 50 at the end of 2019. While higher prevailing unemployment rates will likely dampen consumer spending in 2021, that impact should be mitigated by additional housing-related expenditures spurred by the red-hot housing market across the OECD. Pent-up demand for recreation, transportation and food service spending also has the potential to buttress the economy during the second half of 2021. The potential for substantial additional fiscal stimulus and a return to a more traditional international political landscape under the Biden Administration add further support for an overall upbeat economic outlook.

Ultimately, we are forced to try to reconcile the reality of our everyday experience with the apparent resilience of the global economy. On a daily basis we see people suffering tremendous pain as COVID-19 case counts skyrocket, deaths in the U.S. alone consistently

top 3,000 per day, hospital systems across the globe operate beyond capacity, and hunger, stress and economic hardship prevail. At the same time, it is becoming increasingly apparent that the worst-case pandemic-related economic outcomes are unlikely to materialize and the long-term structural damage to the global economy will likely be far less severe than originally feared. While there is much that could still go wrong, in the short- to medium-term, it appears as if the global economy and financial markets will successfully navigate this historically challenging period of human history.

KARNER BLUE BIODIVERSITY IMPACT FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

November 30, 2020 (Unaudited)

Organization

Karner Blue Biodiversity Impact Fund (formerly Karner Blue Animal Impact Fund) (the “Fund”) is a diversified series of Ultimus Managers Trust (the “Trust”), an open-end investment company established as an Ohio business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated February 28, 2012. Other series of the Trust are not incorporated in this report.

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to achieve long-term total returns by investing in companies that lead their industries in animal welfare performance.

The Fund offers three classes of shares: Investor Class shares (sold without any sales loads, but subject to a distribution and/or shareholder service fee of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Investor Class shares, and requiring a $2,000 initial investment), Institutional Class shares (sold without any sales loads and distribution and/ or shareholder service fees but subject to an administrative service fee of up to 0.10% of the average daily net assets attributable to Institutional Class shares, and requiring a $200,000 initial investment) and Butterfly™ Class shares (sold without any sales loads and distribution and/or shareholder service fees and requiring a $2,000,000 initial investment). Each share class represents an ownership interest in the same investment portfolio.

Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the Fund’s significant accounting policies. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Fund follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, “Financial Services – Investment Companies.”

Securities valuation – The Fund values its portfolio securities at market value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each business day the NYSE is open for business. The Fund values its listed securities on the basis of the security’s last sale price on the security’s primary exchange, if available, otherwise at the exchange’s most recently quoted mean price. NASDAQ-listed securities are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. When using a quoted price and when the market is considered active, the security will be classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy (see below). In the event that market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable due to market or other events, the Fund values its securities and other assets at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Under these procedures, the securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used. Unavailable or unreliable market quotes may be due to the following factors: a substantial bid-ask spread; infrequent sales

KARNER BLUE BIODIVERSITY IMPACT FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

resulting in stale prices; insufficient trading volume; small trade sizes; a temporary lapse in any reliable pricing source; and actions of the securities or futures markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading. As a result, the prices of securities used to calculate the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

GAAP establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures 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 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

●

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs

●

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs

The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments and the inputs used to value the investments as of November 30, 2020:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Common Stocks	$	7,624,310	$	—	$	—	$	7,624,310
Total	$	7,624,310	$	—	$	—	$	7,624,310

Refer to the Fund’s Schedule of Investments for a listing of securities by sector and industry type. The Fund did not hold any derivative instruments or any assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of or during the six months ended November 30, 2020.

Cash account – The Fund’s cash is held in a bank account with balances which may exceed the amount covered by federal deposit insurance. As of November 30, 2020, the cash balance reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities represents the amount held in a deposit sweep account.

KARNER BLUE BIODIVERSITY IMPACT FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Investment transactions – Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on a specific identification basis.

Foreign currency translation – Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in or expected to settle in foreign currencies, if any, are translated into U.S. dollars based on exchange rates on the following basis:

The fair values of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated as of the close of the NYSE each day.

Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the respective date of such transactions.

The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations caused by changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from those caused by changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 1) purchases and sales of foreign currencies, 2) currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and 3) the difference between the amounts of dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Reported net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities that result from changes in exchange rates.

Allocation between Classes – Investment income earned, realized capital gains and losses, and unrealized appreciation and depreciation are allocated daily to each Class of the Fund based upon its proportionate share of total net assets of the Fund. Class-specific expenses are charged directly to the Class incurring the expense. Common expenses which are not attributable to a specific Class are allocated daily to each Class of shares of the Fund based upon its proportionate share of total net assets of the Fund.

KARNER BLUE BIODIVERSITY IMPACT FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Distributions to shareholders – The Fund distributes to shareholders any net investment income dividends and net realized capital gains distributions at least once each year. The amount of such dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The distributions paid to shareholders during the period ended May 31, 2020 were ordinary income. There were no distributions paid to shareholders during the six months ended November 30, 2020.

In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also the Fund’s intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years.

The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of November 30, 2020:

Tax cost of portfolio investments	$	6,454,704
Gross unrealized appreciation	$	1,352,676
Gross unrealized depreciation		(183,070	)
Net unrealized appreciation		1,169,606
Net unrealized appreciation on foreign currency translation		3
Accumulated ordinary income		81,716
Capital loss carryforwards		(153,539	)
Other gains		95,641
Accumulated earnings	$	1,193,427

KARNER BLUE BIODIVERSITY IMPACT FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

As of May 31, 2020, the Fund had a short-term capital loss carryforward of $153,539 for federal income tax purposes, which may be carried forward indefinitely. This capital loss carryforward is available to offset net realized gains in the current and future years, thereby reducing future taxable gains distributions.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits or expenses of uncertain tax positions only when the position is “more likely than not” of being sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the Fund’s tax positions for the current and all open tax periods and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal.

Investment Transactions

During the six months ended November 30, 2020, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities, other than short-term investments, amounted to $2,077,506 and $1,591,815, respectively.

Transactions with Related Parties

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

The Fund’s investments are managed by Karner Blue Capital, LLC (the “Adviser”) pursuant to the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement. The Fund pays the Adviser an investment advisory fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 0.80% of average daily net assets.

Pursuant to an Expense Limitation Agreement (“ELA”) between the Fund and the Adviser, the Adviser has contractually agreed, until September 30, 2021, to reduce investment advisory fees and reimburse other operating expenses to limit total annual operating expenses of the Fund (exclusive of brokerage costs; taxes; interest; borrowing costs such as interest and dividend expenses on securities sold short; costs to organize the Fund; acquired fund fees and expenses; extraordinary expenses such as litigation and merger or reorganization costs; and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business) to an amount not exceeding the following percentages of average daily net assets attributable to each respective class:

Investor Class		Institutional Class		Butterfly™ Class
1.25%		1.00%		0.85%

Accordingly, during the six months ended November 30, 2020, the Adviser did not collect any of its investment advisory fees and reimbursed other operating expenses of $76,822.

KARNER BLUE BIODIVERSITY IMPACT FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Under the terms of the ELA, investment advisory fee reductions and expense reimbursements by the Adviser are subject to repayment by the Fund for a period of three years after such fees and expenses were incurred, provided that the repayments do not cause total annual fund operating expenses to exceed the lesser of (i) the expense limitation then in effect, if any, and (ii) the expense limitation in effect at the time the expenses to be repaid were incurred. As of November 30, 2020, the Adviser may in the future seek repayment of investment advisory fee reductions and expense reimbursements in the amount of $249,707 no later than the dates listed below:

May 31, 2023	$	144,782
November 30, 2023		104,925
Total	$	249,707

OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS

Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“Ultimus”) provides administration, fund accounting, compliance and transfer agency services to the Fund. The Fund pays Ultimus fees in accordance with the agreements for such services. In addition, the Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies and certain costs related to the pricing of its portfolio securities. During the six months ended November 30, 2020, Ultimus voluntarily waived fees in the amount of $20,400. These voluntary waivers are not subject to recoupment by Ultimus.

Under the terms of a Distribution Agreement with the Trust, Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as the principal underwriter to the Fund. The Distributor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultimus. The Distributor is compensated partially by the Adviser and partially by the Investor Class shares of the Fund for acting as principal underwriter.

A Trustee and certain officers of the Trust are also officers of Ultimus and/or the Distributor.

DISTRIBUTION PLAN

The Fund has adopted a plan of distribution (the “Plan”), pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), which permits Investor Class shares of the Fund to directly incur or reimburse the Fund’s principal underwriter for certain expenses related to the distribution of its shares. The annual limitation for payment of expenses pursuant to the Plan is 0.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets allocable to Investor Class shares. The Fund has not adopted a plan of distribution with respect to the Institutional Class shares or the Butterfly™ Class shares. During the six months ended November 30, 2020, the Investor Class shares incurred $566 of distribution fees under the Plan.

KARNER BLUE BIODIVERSITY IMPACT FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES PLAN

The Fund has adopted an Administrative Services Plan (the “Administrative Services Plan”), for the Institutional Class shares of the Fund. The Administrative Services Plan allows the Fund to use the net assets of the Institutional Class shares to pay financial intermediaries that provide services relating to Institutional Class shares. The Administrative Services Plan permits payments for the provision of certain administrative, recordkeeping and other non-distribution related services to Institutional Class shareholders. The Administrative Services Plan permits the Fund to make service fee payments at an annual rate of up to 0.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to its Institutional Class shares. The Fund has not adopted an administrative services plan with respect to the Investor Class shares or the Butterfly™ Class shares. During the six months ended November 30, 2020, the Institutional Class shares incurred $156 of fees under the Administrative Services Plan.

TRUSTEE COMPENSATION

Each member of the Board (a “Trustee”) who is not an “interested person” of the Trust (“Independent Trustee”) receives a $1,300 annual retainer from the Fund, paid quarterly, except for the Board Chairperson who receives a $1,500 annual retainer from the Fund, paid in quarterly installments. Each Independent Trustee also receives from the Fund a fee of $500 for each Board meeting attended plus reimbursement for travel and other meeting-related expenses.

PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF FUND SHARES

As of November 30, 2020, the following shareholders owned of record 25% or more of the outstanding shares of each class of the Fund:

Name of Record Owners		% Ownership
Investor Class
Muriel Vanhousen		25%
Institutional Class
Marion Look-Jameson		64%
Butterfly™ Class
SEI Private Trust Company (for the benefit of its customers)		64%

A beneficial owner of 25% or more of the Fund’s outstanding shares may be considered a controlling person of the Fund. That shareholder’s vote could have a more significant effect on matters presented at a shareholders’ meeting.

KARNER BLUE BIODIVERSITY IMPACT FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Foreign Securities Risk

The Fund may invest in American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). Investments in ADRs provide exposure to foreign securities that may involve different risks than those of U.S. securities. Foreign securities are subject to individual country risk, less favorable reporting and disclosure risk, currency exchange risk and greater price volatility, and may have higher liquidity risk than U.S. registered securities. As of November 30, 2020, the Fund had 37.5% of its net assets invested in ADRs.

Contingencies and Commitments

The Fund indemnifies the Trust’s officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Subsequent Events

The Fund paid the following distributions to shareholders subsequent to November 30, 2020:

			Per Share
	Record		Ordinary
	Date	Ex-Date	Income
Investor Class	12/18/2020	12/21/2020	$0.1025

ABOUT YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES (Unaudited)

We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your investment. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, class-specific expenses (such as distribution fees and administrative services fees) and other operating expenses. The following examples are 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.

A mutual fund’s ongoing costs are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The expenses in the table below are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the most recent semi-annual period (June 1, 2020) and held until the end of the period (November 30, 2020).

The table below illustrates the Fund’s ongoing costs in two ways:

Semi-Annual Report

(Unaudited)

KEMPNER MULTI-CAP DEEP VALUE FUND
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited)	December 2020

Fund Objective

The Kempner Multi-Cap Deep Value Fund seeks to generate a total pre-tax return, including capital growth and dividends, greater than the rate of inflation over a minimum three-to five-year period. For the 6-month period ended November 30, 2020, the Fund produced a cumulative return of 19.01% for the Institutional Class Shares and 18.88% for the Investor Class Shares, both net of fees. The Headline CPI inflation rate over the same six-month period was 1.97%. Comparatively, over the same time period, the Lipper Multi Cap Value Funds Classification Index returned 21.03% and the S&P 500 Value Index returned 14.82%.

U.S. Economic Commentary

The advent of several approved vaccines worldwide has now opened up the U.S. economy to quite positive possibilities in 2021. Indeed, even without the vaccine and despite some weak areas in the economy, there are already surprisingly broad numbers of economic indications of U.S. strength, even in the face of a pandemic surge this fall. Examples range from the November 2020 U.S. Purchasing Managers Employment Index at 56.8% - the highest in the last 10 years. For the week of December 22, 2020, the Evercore-ISI Trucking Survey, which is directly correlated with real GDP growth, reached the highest level in the past 5 years at 68.2%, and finally, the CRBE Raw Industrials Index for the month of November 2020 is at this year’s highest, up 22%.

All these areas of strength are there despite the existence of 11 million unemployed, a level, while down from the worst this year, that is as high as it was in the 2008-2009 great recession. We believe this group of unemployed can now be perceived as a positive. As vaccinations spread, many of these folks will be re-entering a rapidly opening economy, providing a boost throughout 2021. We expect the U.S. economy to grow at least 4% in 2021 and feel that that number will be higher if a COVID-19 relief bill is passed by Congress and the Administration.

Portfolio Strategy

Our investment approach continues to be one of investing in deeply undervalued companies and selling when the underlying value becomes realized by other market participants and reflected in the current price. The past year of rising markets has therefore resulted in a greater number of sale opportunities than purchase opportunities. We always consider cash as a buying reserve and in this case due to a spectacular market that we have seen and concerns about the coronavirus, which are relatively new, our accounts are more liquid than they have ever been in my lifetime. We, of course, will be gradually committing these reserves as long-term opportunities present themselves.

Over the past 6 months, we established and/or added to positions in Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. (BMY), Everest Re Group Ltd (RE), and Hewlett Packard Enterprises (HPE). During the same time frame, we added to the Fund’s positions in Citigroup Inc. (C) and DuPont de Nemours, Inc. (DD). We reduced the Fund’s positions in FedEx Corporation (FDX), Honda Motor Co. Ltd. (HMC), and Pfizer, Inc. (PFE). We sold entirely out of Accenture PLC

(ACN), Axis Capital Holdings Ltd. (AXS), Capital One Financial Corp. (COF), Nordstrom Inc. (JWN), Occidental Petroleum Corp. (OXY), Skyworks Solutions Inc. (SWKS) and United Parcel Services Inc. (UPS).

We continue to scour the equity universe to locate stocks which meet our investment criteria of: 1) a relatively low forecast P/E multiple, usually 15X or less, 2) a dividend yield is paid, or has declared a dividend, 3) public debt, if any, is investment grade, 4) a minimum of $500 million market capitalization, and 5) current stock price that is within 20% of the 52-week low price. In addition to meeting these criteria, stocks are quantitatively and qualitatively analyzed to determine company prospects and reasonableness of valuation.

The portfolio’s outperformance relative to the S&P 500 Value Index for the 6-month period ending November 30, 2020 was attributable in large part to a higher weighting of shares in the energy and financial sectors.

We maintain our long-term focus in the Kempner Multi-Cap Deep Value Fund on areas which we believe are overlooked by the market.

Harris L. Kempner, Jr. and M. Shawn Gault are the portfolio managers for the Kempner Multi-Cap Deep Value Fund.

KEMPNER MULTI-CAP DEEP VALUE FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

November 30, 2020 (Unaudited)

Organization

Kempner Multi-Cap Deep Value Fund (the “Fund”) is a diversified series of Ultimus Managers Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Fund was reorganized into the Trust on April 28, 2017.

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to generate a total pre-tax return, including capital growth and dividends, that is greater than the rate of inflation over a three-to-five-year period.

The Fund currently offers two classes of shares: Institutional Class shares (sold without any sales loads and distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees and requiring a $500,000 initial investment) and Investor Class shares (sold without any sales loads, but subject to a distribution and/or shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Investor Class shares, and requiring a $500 initial investment). Each share class represents an ownership interest in the same investment portfolio.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Fund follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” The following is a summary of the Fund’s significant accounting policies used in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Securities valuation – The Fund values its portfolio securities at market value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each business day the NYSE is open for business. The Fund values its listed securities on the basis of the security’s last sale price on the security’s primary exchange, if available, otherwise at the exchange’s most recently quoted mean price. NASDAQ-listed securities are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Investments representing shares of money market funds and other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value (“NAV”) as reported by such companies. When using a quoted price and when the market for the security is considered active, the security will be classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy (see below). In the event that market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable due to market or other events, the Fund values its securities and other assets at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Under these procedures, the securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used. Unavailable or unreliable market quotes may be due to the following factors: a substantial bid-ask spread; infrequent sales resulting in stale prices; insufficient trading volume; small trade sizes; a temporary lapse in any reliable pricing source; and actions of the securities or futures markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading. As a result, the prices of securities used to calculate the Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

KEMPNER MULTI-CAP DEEP VALUE FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

GAAP establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures 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 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

●

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs

●

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs

The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments based on the inputs used to value the investments as of November 30, 2020 by security type:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Common Stocks	$	61,138,435	$	—	$	—	$	61,138,435
Warrants		23,644		—		—		23,644
Money Market Funds		7,773,449		—		—		7,773,449
Total	$	68,935,528	$	—	$	—	$	68,935,528

Investment transactions – Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on a specific identification basis.

KEMPNER MULTI-CAP DEEP VALUE FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Distributions to shareholders – The Fund intends to declare and distribute net investment income dividends on a quarterly basis. In addition, the Fund will declare and distribute net realized capital gains, if any, on an annual basis. The amount of such dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders by the Fund during the periods ended November 30, 2020, May 31, 2020 and July 31, 2019 were as follows:

Period	Ordinary		Long-Term		Total
Ended	Income		Capital Gains		Distributions
11/30/2020	$	541,597	$	—	$	541,597
5/31/2020	$	2,234,371	$	1,203,447	$	3,437,818
7/31/2019	$	2,075,676	$	221,472	$	2,297,148

Federal income tax – The Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). Qualification generally will relieve the Fund of liability for federal income taxes to the extent 100% of its net investment income and net realized capital gains are distributed in accordance with the Code.

KEMPNER MULTI-CAP DEEP VALUE FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of November 30, 2020:

Tax cost of portfolio investments	$	66,297,095
Gross unrealized appreciation	$	10,930,168
Gross unrealized depreciation		(8,291,735	)
Net unrealized appreciation		2,638,433

Undistributed long-term gains		2,369,114
Other capital losses		(2,324,674	)
Accumulated deficit	$	3,845,016

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits or expenses of uncertain tax positions only when the position is “more likely than not” of being sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the Fund’s tax positions for the current and all open tax years (generally, three years) and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal.

Investment Transactions

During the six months ended November 30, 2020, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities, other than short-term investments, amounted to $3,855,916 and $8,727,498, respectively.

Transactions with Related Parties

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

The Fund’s investments are managed by Kempner Capital Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”) pursuant to the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement. The Fund pays the Adviser an investment advisory fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 0.59% of average daily net assets.

The Adviser has agreed contractually, until at least December 1, 2021, to reduce its advisory fees and reimburse other expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual fund operating expenses (exclusive of brokerage costs; taxes; interest; borrowing costs such as interest and dividend expenses on securities sold short; costs to organize the Fund; acquired fund fees and expenses; extraordinary expenses such as litigation and merger or reorganization costs and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business) to an amount not exceeding 1.05% and 1.30% of average daily net assets for Institutional Class and Investor Class shares, respectively.

Advisory fee reductions and expense reimbursements by the Adviser are subject to repayment by the Fund for a period of three years after such fees and expenses were incurred, provided that the repayments do not cause the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses to exceed the lesser of (i) the expense limitation then in effect, if any, and (ii) the expense limitation

KEMPNER MULTI-CAP DEEP VALUE FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

in effect at the time the expenses to be repaid were incurred. This agreement will terminate automatically if the Investment Advisory Agreement is terminated. During the six months ended November 30, 2020, the Adviser did not reduce its advisory fees or reimburse other expenses of the Fund.

OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS

Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“Ultimus”) provides administration, fund accounting, compliance and transfer agency services to the Fund. The Fund pays Ultimus fees in accordance with the agreements for such services. In addition, the Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies and certain costs related to the pricing of the Fund’s portfolio securities.

Under the terms of a Distribution Agreement with the Trust, Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as principal underwriter to the Fund. The Distributor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultimus. The Distributor is compensated partially by the Adviser and partially by the Investor Class shares of the Fund for acting as principal underwriter.

A Trustee and certain officers of the Trust are also officers of Ultimus and/or the Distributor.

DISTRIBUTION PLAN

The Fund has adopted a plan of distribution (the “Plan”), pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, which permits Investor Class shares of the Fund to directly incur or reimburse the Fund’s principal underwriter for certain expenses related to the distribution of Investor Class shares. The annual limitation for payment of expenses pursuant to the Plan is 0.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets allocable to Investor Class shares. The Fund has not adopted a plan of distribution with respect to Institutional Class shares. During the six months ended November 30, 2020, Investor Class shares of the Fund incurred $16,175 of distribution fees under the Plan.

TRUSTEE COMPENSATION

KEMPNER MULTI-CAP DEEP VALUE FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF FUND SHARES

As of November 30, 2020, the following shareholders owned of record 25% or more of the outstanding shares of each class of the Fund:

NAME OF RECORD OWNERS		% Ownership
Institutional Class
Muir & Company (for the benefit of its customers)		94%
Investor Class
Muir & Company (for the benefit of its customers)		32%
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC (for the benefit of its customers)		42%

Contingencies and Commitments

The Fund indemnifies the Trust’s officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Subsequent Events

The Fund paid the following distributions to shareholders subsequent to November 30, 2020:

ABOUT YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES (Unaudited)

We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your investment. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, class-specific expenses (such as distribution fees) and other operating expenses. The following examples are 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 table below illustrates the Fund’s ongoing costs in two ways:

Hypothetical 5% return – This section is intended to help you compare the Fund’s ongoing costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses during the period shown, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the return used is not the Fund’s actual return, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the SEC requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess the Fund’s ongoing costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT

ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including the Independent Trustees voting separately, has reviewed and approved the Fund’s Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Kempner Capital Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”) for an additional one-year term. The Board approved the Agreement at a meeting held on July 20-21, 2020, at which all of the Trustees were present.

Legal counsel advised the Board during its deliberations. Additionally, the Board received and reviewed a substantial amount of information provided by the Adviser in response to requests of the Board and counsel. In deciding whether to approve the continuation of the Agreement, the Board recalled its review of the materials related to the Fund and the Adviser throughout the preceding 12 months and its numerous discussions with Trust management and the Adviser about the operations and performance of the Fund during that period. The Board further considered those materials and discussions and numerous other factors, including:

The nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Adviser. In this regard, the Board reviewed the services being provided by the Adviser to the Fund including, without limitation, its recent investment advisory services to the Fund, the Adviser’s compliance policies and procedures, and its compliance program. After reviewing the foregoing information and further information in the Adviser’s memorandum (e.g., descriptions of its business and Form ADV), the Board concluded that the quality, extent, and nature of the services provided by the Adviser were satisfactory and adequate for the Fund.

The investment performance of the Fund. In this regard, the Board compared the performance of the Fund with the performance of its benchmark index, custom peer group and related Morningstar category. The Board noted that the Fund had outperformed the custom peer group’s average and median for the three-year period, underperformed the custom peer group’s median for the one-year period and the custom peer group’s average and median performance for the five-year, ten-year, and since inception periods, and matched the custom’s peer group average performance for the one-year period. The Board noted that the Fund underperformed its Morningstar category’s (Large Cap Value Category Under $100 million, True No-Load) average and median performance the one-year, three-year, five-year, ten-year, and since inception periods The Board further compared the performance of the Fund to the Consumer Price Index (the “CPI”) and noted that the Fund had underperformed for the three-year and five-year period and outperformed the CPI for the ten-year period. The Board also considered the consistency of the Adviser’s management with the Fund’s investment objective and policies. The Board indicated that the Adviser had satisfactorily explained its performance results for the Fund. Following discussion of the investment performance of the Fund and its performance relative to its Morningstar category, the Adviser’s experience in managing a mutual fund and separate accounts, its historical investment performance, and other factors, the Board concluded that the investment performance of the Fund has been satisfactory.

ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (Continued)

The costs of the services provided and profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from its relationship with the Fund. In this regard, the Board considered the Adviser’s staffing, personnel, and methods of operations; the education and experience of its personnel; compliance program, policies, and procedures; financial condition and the level of commitment to the Fund, and, generally, the Adviser’s advisory business; the asset level of the Fund; and the overall expenses of the Fund, including the advisory fee. The Board considered the Fund’s expense limitation agreement (“ELA”) and considered the Adviser’s current and past fee reductions and expense reimbursements for the Fund. The Board further took into account the Adviser’s commitment to continue the ELA until at least December 1, 2021.

The Board also considered potential benefits for the Adviser in managing the Fund, including promotion of the Adviser’s name and the potential for it to receive research, statistical, or other services from the Fund’s trades. The Board compared the Fund’s advisory fee and overall expense ratio to the average advisory fees and average expense ratios for its custom peer group and Morningstar category. The Board noted that the 0.59% advisory fee for the Fund is above the average and below the median for the Fund’s custom peer group, and below the average and median of funds of similar size and structure in the Fund’s Morningstar category (Large Cap Value Category Under $100 million, True No-Load). The Board further noted that the overall annual expense ratio of 0.97% for the Fund is above the average and median for the Fund’s custom peer group and above the median and equal to the average of its Morningstar category. The Board also considered the fee charged by the Adviser to its other accounts that have a substantially similar strategy as the Fund and considered the similarities and differences of services received by such other accounts as compared to the services received by the Fund. The Board noted that the fee structures applicable to the Adviser’s other clients were not indicative of any unreasonableness with respect to the advisory fees payable to the Fund. The Board further considered the investment strategy and style used by the Adviser in managing the portfolio of the Fund. Following these comparisons and upon further consideration and discussion of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the advisory fee paid to the Adviser by the Fund is fair and reasonable.

The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether advisory fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund’s investors. In this regard, the Board considered that the Fund’s fee arrangements with the Adviser involve both the advisory fee and the ELA. The Board determined that while the advisory fee rate remained the same as asset levels increased, the shareholders of the Fund have experienced benefits from the ELA in the past and could continue to experience benefits if assets fall to a level where expenses are higher than the ELA. Following further discussion of the Fund’s asset level, expectations for growth, and level of fees, the Board determined that the Fund’s fee arrangements with the Adviser would continue to provide benefits. The Board also determined that the fee arrangements were fair and reasonable in relation to the nature and quality of services being provided by the Adviser, given the Fund’s projected asset levels for the next year.

ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (Continued)

Brokerage and portfolio transactions. In this regard, the Board considered the Adviser’s trading policies, procedures, and performance in seeking best execution for its clients, including the Fund. The Board also considered the historical portfolio turnover rate for the Fund; the process by which evaluations are made of the overall reasonableness of commissions paid; the process by which the Adviser evaluates best execution; the method and basis for selecting and evaluating the broker-dealers used; and any anticipated allocation of portfolio business to persons affiliated with the Adviser. After further review and discussion, the Board determined that the Adviser’s practices regarding brokerage and portfolio transactions were satisfactory.

Possible conflicts of interest. In evaluating the possibility for conflicts of interest, the Board considered such matters as the experience and abilities of the advisory personnel assigned to the Fund, the Adviser’s process for allocating trades among its different clients, and the substance and administration of the Adviser’s Code of Ethics. Following further consideration and discussion, the Board found for the Fund that the Adviser’s standards and practices relating to the identification and mitigation of potential conflicts of interests were satisfactory.

After further discussion of the factors noted above and in reliance on the information provided by the Adviser and Trust management, and taking into account the totality of all the factors discussed and information presented at this meeting and previous meetings, the Board indicated its agreement to approve the continuance of the Agreement. It was noted that in the Trustees’ deliberations regarding the approval of the continuance of the Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and that each individual Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors listed above. After full consideration of the above factors as well as other factors, the Board unanimously concluded that approval of the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

WAVELENGTH INTEREST RATE NEUTRAL FUND LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited) January 15, 2021

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

Since our last shareholder letter, financial markets adapted to a deeply stressed set of conditions brought on by the worst public health crisis in over a century. The pandemic has changed the shape of our economy, as policy measures seeking to bridge a dangerous gap in output are producing new dynamics in an uneven recovery. Over the period, we actively managed downside risks and captured upside in line with our investment mandate while markets recalibrated to an economy in transition.

What follows is designed to provide a context for returns that fosters a deeper understanding of the investment process that supports them. By doing so we hope to build on the partnership your investment creates.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

For the six months ended November 30, 2020, the Wavelength Interest Rate Neutral Fund (the “Fund”) delivered a return of +6.49% versus a benchmark return of +0.06% for the S&P / BGCantor 0-3 Month US Treasury Bill Index (which seeks to represent the return from not taking risk in financial markets). These results were within targeted risk parameters and the Fund performed in line with investment objectives.

WAVELENGTH PHILOSOPHY

We believe that macroeconomic conditions drive asset prices and central banks use interest rates to manage macroeconomic conditions. Based on this fundamental logic, we seek to build a portfolio that is hedged to changes in interest rates by balancing investment exposure between instruments we expect to outperform in rising and falling macroeconomic conditions.

INVESTMENT ENVIRONMENT

As an extension of our investment philosophy we believe that changing expectations for the economy drive investment decisions, which in turn drive market prices. Since our last letter, economic conditions bounced off pandemic-driven lows with a series of upside surprises to both growth and inflation.

The period began with an uneven reopening of economies across the globe in the face of uncertainty around a persistently spreading virus and the varied effectiveness of preventative measures. Markets continued their rebound on the back of policy stimulus, and many existing trends accelerated as people adjusted to a new normal.

Coming off a record quarterly contraction in US gross domestic product, the summer months featured buoyant markets and better-than-expected earnings. Inflation expectations also began to rise from persistently low levels, as the Federal Reserve announced it would tolerate periods above its 2% target and concerns of rising prices began to manifest themselves in markets.

Heading into the fourth quarter, markets began to recognize political headwinds on the horizon in the form of gridlock around a new stimulus package and anxiety over the US election. Resurgent COVID-19 cases similarly tempered expectations for growth, and widespread business restrictions across Europe tipped the balance of risks to drive selling pressure into quarter-end.

In a challenging year on many fronts, November marked a turning point. The US election took place without upsetting markets, and positive testing developments for multiple vaccines eclipsed concerns over increasing rates of the virus’ spread. The period came to a close with a widespread reallocation of capital by investors as a clearer outlook for the trajectory of economic growth was established.

PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION

The Fund delivered strong positive performance over the period amidst substantial economic uncertainty. Market prices continued to move at increasing speed, and the portfolio’s balance was effective at insulating results from much of the day-to-day noise as we pursued assets offering the best risk-adjusted returns.

The serial dislocations from market moves driven by the onset of the pandemic created an excellent opportunity set for actively investing in fixed income. In this context, we monetized mispricings across the portfolio as markets adapted to new conditions moving into the third quarter. Through June and July, profits were driven by convertible bonds, inflation-linked bonds, and emerging market debt, in addition to municipal bonds which offered substantial opportunities as an asset class.

In August, inflation-linked bonds and emerging market debt continued to drive performance as the dollar weakened and the growing risk of an inflationary outcome was recognized by investors. The portfolio’s positive results were achieved amidst a sell-off for global bonds and rising political frictions over fiscal policy measures.

Heading into the autumn months, our investment process adjusted to increasing levels of risk in markets in the face of COVID-19’s resurgence and election anxiety in the US. In this context, we limited downside while positioning to capture upside as the US election and vaccine developments brought a clearer outlook for markets in November. To close out the period, the portfolio again benefited meaningfully from emerging market debt, convertible and inflation-linked bond exposures, and reflationary expectations took hold with investors adjusting to the new economic paradigm.

OUTLOOK

Markets are now in a delicate balance between the current reality of an intensifying pandemic and the promise of a vaccinated future. The gap between these conditions is marked by crucial risks for the economy, and the capacity for fiscal and monetary policy to provide a bridge will be tested in the coming months.

In this context, the portfolio is positioned with a balanced exposure to potential outcomes for growth and inflation, and we seek to systematically monetize opportunities in fixed income markets as they recalibrate to the changing shape of economic output.

Thank you for your trust and commitment through investment.

Sincerely,

(-s- Andrew Dassori)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

November 30, 2020 (Unaudited)

1. Organization

Wavelength Interest Rate Neutral Fund (the “Fund”) is a diversified series of Ultimus Managers Trust (the “Trust”), an open-end investment company established as an Ohio business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated February 28, 2012. Other series of the Trust are not incorporated in this report.

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek total return.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The Fund follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” The following is a summary of the Fund’s significant accounting policies used in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Securities and futures valuation – The Fund values its portfolio securities at market value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each business day the NYSE is open. Exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) are valued at the security’s last sale price on the security’s primary exchange, if available, otherwise at the exchange’s most recently quoted mean price. Investments representing shares of money market funds and other open-end investment companies, except for ETFs, are valued at their net asset value (“NAV”) as reported by such companies. NASDAQ-listed securities are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. The Fund values its exchange-traded futures contracts at their last sale price as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE. Prices for these futures contracts are monitored daily by Wavelength Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) until the close of regular trading to determine if fair valuation is required.

When using a quoted price and when the market for the security is considered active, a security will be classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy (see below). In the event that market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable due to market or other events, the Fund values its securities and other assets at fair value pursuant to the procedures adopted by and under the general supervision of the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Under these procedures, the securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used. Unavailable or unreliable market quotes may be due to the following factors: a substantial bid-ask spread; infrequent sales resulting in stale prices; insufficient trading volume; small trade sizes; a temporary lapse in any reliable pricing source; and actions of the securities or futures markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading.

GAAP establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements.

WAVELENGTH INTEREST RATE NEUTRAL FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

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 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

●

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs

●

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs

The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments and other financial instruments and the inputs used to value the investments and other financial instruments as of November 30, 2020:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Investments in Securities
Exchange-Traded Funds	$	78,893,820	$	—	$	—	$	78,893,820
Money Market Funds		19,092,636		—		—		19,092,636
Collateral for Securities Loaned *		—		—		—		26,237,359
Total	$	97,986,456	$	—	$	—	$	124,223,815
Other Financial Instruments
Futures Contracts	$	361,623	$	—	$	—	$	361,623
Total	$	361,623	$	—	$	—	$	361,623

Certain investments that are measured at fair value using the NAV per share (or its equivalent) practical exedient have not been categorized in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts presented in the table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

The Fund did not have any assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of or during the six months ended November 30, 2020. Other Financial Instruments are future contracts which are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of November 30, 2020.

Cash account – The Fund’s cash is held in a bank account with balances which, at times, may exceed United States federally insured limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Fund maintains these balances with a high-quality financial institution and may incur charges on cash overdrafts.

WAVELENGTH INTEREST RATE NEUTRAL FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Investment income – Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued as earned. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the security received.

Investment transactions – Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on a specific identification basis.

Distributions to shareholders – The Fund distributes to shareholders any net investment income on a quarterly basis and any net realized capital gains at least annually. The amount of such dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The tax character of distributions paid during the periods ended November 30, 2020 and May 31, 2020 was as follows:

Period	Ordinary		Tax-Exempt		Long-Term		Total
Ended	Income		Distributions		Capital Gains		Distributions
11/30/2020	$	368,311	$	—	$	—	$	368,311
5/31/2020	$	2,317,659	$	82,679	$	1,299,661	$	3,699,999

Futures contracts – The Fund uses futures contracts to gain exposure to or to hedge against changes in the value of equities, real estate, interest rates or commodities. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price on a specified date. When the Fund purchases or sells a futures contract, no price is paid to or received by the Fund. Instead, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated asset account an amount of cash or qualifying securities currently ranging from 2% to 10% of the contract amount. This is called the “initial margin deposit.” Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin,” are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying asset. The Fund recognizes an unrealized gain or loss equal to the daily variation margin. If market conditions move unexpectedly, the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize a loss. The margin deposits for futures contracts and the variation receivable/payable are reported on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

WAVELENGTH INTEREST RATE NEUTRAL FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also the Fund’s intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years.

The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of November 30, 2020:


Tax cost of portfolio investments	$	120,876,864
Gross unrealized appreciation	$	4,000,313
Gross unrealized depreciation		(653,362	)
Net unrealized appreciation		3,346,951
Accumulated ordinary income		279,144
Other gains		2,366,470
Total accumulated earnings	$	5,992,565

The value of the federal income tax cost of portfolio investments may temporarily differ from the financial statement cost. This book/tax difference is due to the recognition of capital gains or losses under income tax regulations and GAAP, primarily the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the tax treatment of realized and unrealized gains and losses on futures contracts and adjustments to basis on publicly traded partnerships.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits or expenses of uncertain tax positions only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the Fund’s tax positions for the current and all open tax years (generally, three years) and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal.

3. Investment Transactions

During the six months ended November 30, 2020, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities, other than short-term investments, were $29,565,326 and $6,077,364, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

4. Transactions with Related Parties

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

The Fund’s investments are managed by the Adviser pursuant to the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays the Adviser an investment advisory fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 0.95% of its average daily net assets.

Pursuant to an Expense Limitation Agreement between the Fund and the Adviser (the “ELA”), the Adviser has agreed, until October 1, 2025, to reduce its investment advisory fees and reimburse other expenses to limit total annual operating expenses (exclusive of brokerage costs; taxes; interest; borrowing costs such as interest and dividends expenses on securities sold short; acquired fund fees and expenses; extraordinary expenses such as litigation and merger or reorganization costs and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business) to an amount not exceeding 0.99% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. During the six months ended November 30, 2020, the Adviser reduced its investment advisory fees by $153,921.

Under the terms of the ELA, investment advisory fee reductions and expense reimbursements by the Adviser are subject to recoupment by the Adviser for a period of three years after such fees and expenses were incurred, provided that the recoupments do not cause total annual operating expenses of the Fund to exceed the lesser of (i) the expense limitation then in effect, if any, and (ii) the expense limitation in effect at the time the expenses to be repaid were incurred. As of November 30, 2020, the Adviser may seek recoupment of investment advisory fee reductions and expense reimbursements in the amount of $707,305 no later than the dates as stated below:

May 31, 2021	May 31, 2022	May 31, 2023	November 30, 2023	Total
$90,953	$211,390	$251,041	$153,921	$707,305

OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS

Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“Ultimus”) provides administration, fund accounting, compliance and transfer agency services to the Fund. The Fund pays Ultimus fees in accordance with the agreements for such services. In addition, the Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies and certain costs related to the pricing of the Fund’s portfolio securities.

Under the terms of a Distribution Agreement with the Trust, Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as the principal underwriter to the Fund. The Distributor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultimus. The Distributor is compensated by the Adviser (not the Fund) for acting as principal underwriter.

Total	$	1,449,234		$	20,149

In the ordinary course of business, the Fund may enter into transactions subject to enforceable netting agreements or other similar arrangements (“netting agreements”). Generally, the right to offset in netting agreements allows the Fund to offset any exposure to a specific counterparty with any collateral received or delivered to that counterparty based on the terms of the agreements. Generally, the Fund manages its cash collateral securities and securities collateral on a counterparty basis.

The amount is limited to the net amounts of financial assets and accordingly does not include excess collateral pledged.

6. Securities Lending

Under the terms of the securities lending agreement with U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”), U.S. Bank is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund to approved borrowers. The contractual maturity of securities lending transactions are on an overnight and continuous basis. In exchange, the Fund receives cash collateral in the amount of at least 102% of the value of the securities loaned. Any collateral shortfalls due to changes in security market prices are adjusted the next business day. The cash collateral is invested in a short-term investment instrument as noted on the Fund’s Schedule of Investments. As of November 30, 2020, the Fund had 22.4% of its net assets invested in this short-term investment instrument for securities lending purposes. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the Fund could experience a delay in recovering its securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them. The agreement indemnifies the Fund from losses incurred in the event of a borrower’s material default of the terms and conditions of the borrower agreement. The agreement provides that after predetermined rebates to borrowers, the Fund retains a portion of its net securities lending income and pays U.S. Bank the remaining portion. The Fund manages credit exposure arising from these lending transactions by, in appropriate circumstances, entering into a Securities Lending Agreement with U.S. Bank that provides the Fund, in the event of default (such as bankruptcy or borrower’s failure to pay or perform), the right to net rights and obligations under such

WAVELENGTH INTEREST RATE NEUTRAL FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

agreements and liquidate and set off collateral against the net amount owed to the Fund. As of November 30, 2020, the fair value of securities on loan and the collateral held were $25,606,292 and $26,237,359, respectively.

7. Certain Investments and Risks

The securities in which the Fund invests, as well as the risks associated with these securities, are described in the Fund’s prospectus. Among these risks are those associated with investments in shares of ETFs. ETFs issue their shares to authorized participants in return for a specific basket of securities. The authorized participants then sell the ETF’s shares on the secondary market. In other words, ETF shares are traded on a securities exchange based on their market value. Investments in ETFs are subject to the risk that the ETF’s shares may trade at a premium (creating the risk that the Fund pays more than NAV for an ETF when making a purchase) or discount (creating the risk that the Fund receives less than NAV when selling an ETF) to the ETF’s NAV. Investments in ETFs are also subject to index-tracking risk because the total return generated by the securities will be reduced by transaction costs and expenses not incurred by the indices. Certain securities comprising the index tracked by an ETF may, from time to time, temporarily be unavailable, which may further impede the ETF’s ability to track its applicable index or match the index’s performance. To the extent that the Fund invests in an ETF, the Fund incurs additional expenses because the Fund bears its pro-rata portion of such ETF’s advisory fees and operational expenses. Finally, ETF shares are also subject to the risks applicable to the underlying basket of securities. As of November 30, 2020, the Fund had 67.3% of the value of its net assets invested in ETFs.

8. Contingencies and Commitments

The Fund indemnifies the Trust’s officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

9. Subsequent Events

On December 30, 2020, the Fund paid an ordinary income dividend, short-term and long-term capital gain distributions of $0.0532, $0.0860 and $0.0362 per share, respectively, to shareholders of record on December 29, 2020.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including the Independent Trustees voting separately, has reviewed and approved the Fund’s Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Wavelength Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) for an additional one-year term. The Board approved the Agreement at a meeting held on July 20-21, 2020, at which all of the Trustees were present.

Legal counsel advised the Board during its deliberations. Additionally, the Board received and reviewed a substantial amount of information provided by the Adviser in response to requests of the Board and counsel. In deciding whether to approve the continuation of the Agreement, the Board recalled its review of the materials related to the Fund and the Adviser throughout the preceding 12 months and its numerous discussions with Trust Management and the Adviser about the operations and performance of the Fund during that period. The Board further considered those materials and discussions and numerous other factors, including:

The nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Adviser. In this regard, the Board reviewed the services being provided by the Adviser to the Fund including, without limitation, its recent investment advisory services to the Fund; its compliance procedures and practices; its efforts to promote the Fund and assist in its distribution; and its compliance program. After reviewing the foregoing information and further information in the Adviser’s memorandum (e.g., description of its business and Form ADV), the Board concluded that the quality, extent, and nature of the services provided by the Adviser to the Fund were satisfactory and adequate.

The investment performance of the Fund. In this regard, the Board compared the performance of the Fund with the performance of its benchmark index, custom peer group, and Morningstar category. The Board also considered the consistency of the Adviser’s management with the Fund’s investment objective and policies. The Board noted that the Fund had outperformed relative to the average and median of its custom peer group and its Morningstar category (Nontraditional Bond Funds Under $250 Million, True No-Load) for the one-year, three-year, five-year and since inception periods. Following additional discussion of the investment performance of the Fund; the Adviser’s experience in managing mutual funds, private funds, and separate accounts; the Adviser’s historical investment performance; and other factors, the Board concluded that the investment performance of the Fund has been satisfactory.

The costs of the services provided and profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund. In this regard, the Board considered the Adviser’s staffing; methods of operating; the education and experience of its personnel; its compliance program, policies and procedures; its financial condition and the level of commitment to the Fund and, generally, the Adviser’s advisory business; the asset level of the Fund; the overall expenses of the Fund, including the advisory fee; and the differences in fees and services to the Adviser’s other similar clients. The Board considered its discussion with the Adviser

WAVELENGTH INTEREST RATE NEUTRAL FUND

DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

regarding the expense limitation agreement (“ELA”), and considered the Adviser’s past fee reductions and expense reimbursements for the Fund. The Board further took into account the Adviser’s willingness to continue the ELA for the Fund until at least October 1, 2025.

The Board also considered potential benefits for the Adviser in managing the Fund, including promotion of the Adviser’s name. The Board compared the Fund’s advisory fee and overall expense ratio to the average and median advisory fees and expense ratios for its custom peer group and Morningstar categories. In considering the comparison in fees and expense ratios between the Fund and other comparable funds, the Board looked at the differences in types of funds being compared, the style of investment management, the size of the Fund, and the nature of the investment strategies. The Board also considered the Adviser’s commitment to limit the Fund’s expenses under the ELA. The Board noted that the 0.95% advisory fee for the Fund was above the average and the median for the Fund’s custom peer group and the Fund’s Morningstar category (Nontraditional Bond Funds Under $250 Million, True No-Load), but was less than the highest advisory fee in the Fund’s custom peer group and referenced for other funds in the Morningstar category. The Board further noted that the overall expense ratio for the Fund of 1.28% was lower than the average and higher than the median expense ratio for the other funds in the Adviser Fund’s custom peer group and higher than the average and higher than the median of the Morningstar category (Nontraditional Bond Funds Under $250 Million, True No-Load). The Board further considered the investment strategy and style used by the Adviser in managing the portfolio of the Fund. Following these comparisons and considerations and upon further consideration and discussion of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the advisory fee to be paid to the Adviser by the Fund is fair and reasonable.

The extent to which economics of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether advisory fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund’s investors. In this regard, the Board considered that the Fund’s fee arrangements with the Adviser involve both the advisory fee and the ELA. The Board determined that while the advisory fee rate remained the same as asset levels increased, the shareholders of the Fund have experienced in the past, and may again experience in the future, benefits from the ELA. Following further discussion of the Fund’s asset level, expectations for asset growth, and level of fees, the Board determined that the fee arrangements with the Adviser were fair and reasonable in relation to the nature and quality of services being provided by the Adviser.

Brokerage and portfolio transactions. In this regard, the Board considered the Adviser’s policies and procedures and performance in seeking best execution for its clients, including the Fund. The Board also considered the historical portfolio turnover rate for the Fund; the process by which evaluations are made of the overall reasonableness of commissions paid; the process by which the Adviser evaluates best execution; the method and basis for selecting and evaluating the broker-dealers used; and any anticipated allocation of portfolio business to persons affiliated with the Adviser. After further review and discussion, the Board determined that the Adviser’s practices regarding brokerage and portfolio transactions are satisfactory.

WAVELENGTH INTEREST RATE NEUTRAL FUND

DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

Possible conflicts of interest. In evaluating the possibility for conflicts of interest, the Board considered such matters as the experience and abilities of the advisory personnel assigned to the Fund; the Adviser’s process for allocating trades among the Fund and its other clients; and the substance and administration of the Adviser’s Code of Ethics. Following further consideration and discussion, the Board found for the Fund that the Adviser’s standards and practices relating to the identification and mitigation of potential conflicts of interests were satisfactory.

After further discussion of the factors noted above and in reliance on the information provided by the Adviser and Trust Management, and taking into account the totality of all the factors discussed and information presented at this meeting and previous meetings, the Board indicated its agreement to approve the continuance of the Agreement. It was noted that in the Trustees’ deliberations regarding the approval of the continuance of the Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and that each individual Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors listed above. After full consideration of the above factors as well as other factors, the Board unanimously concluded that approval of the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.
