Dear Shareholders/Contract Owners: | unaudited |

The domestic equity market rally slowed considerably in the first six months of 2018 when compared to 2017, while international equities fell during this period after realizing very strong returns in 2017. The first half of 2018 was marked by heightened volatility, especially from February to April, driven by concerns over international trade tensions between the U.S. and its major trading partners, equity valuations, inflation, rising interest rates, the U.S.-North Korea summit, and the U.S.’ exit from the Iran nuclear agreement. A notable spike in volatility occurred in early February, which led to a 9.50% decline in the S&P 500. This increase in volatility was evidenced by a four-day period during which the daily range between the high and the low on the S&P 500 exceeded 4%. This decline was quickly followed by a rapid, partial recovery of 6.50%. However, the S&P 500 has yet to fully recover to its pre-decline 2018 peak, which it had reached in late January.
Despite the fact that first quarter corporate earnings were generally strong compared to forecasted earnings (in large part due to the tax reform legislation that was passed in 2017), positive revisions to forward-looking estimates for the remainder of 2018 have not occurred. Escalating tensions between the U.S. and its major trading partners and higher interest rates have led to a strengthening of the U.S. dollar and heightened concerns regarding global economic growth. These developments could negatively impact U.S. corporate earnings growth as approximately 40% of the earnings of the S&P 500 are generated outside the United States.
With this geopolitical backdrop, as well as a strengthening U.S. dollar and rising U.S. interest rates, U.S. equity indices led in the first half of 2018, with the Russell 2000 up 7.66% (as compared to 14.65% in 2017), followed by the S&P MidCap 400 and the S&P 500 up 3.49% and 2.65%, respectively (as compared to 16.24% and 21.83%, respectively in 2017)
Internationally, the MSCI EAFE and the MSCI Emerging Markets were down -2.75% and -6.66%, respectively (as compared to up 25.03% and 37.28%, respectively in 2017). Regionally, European equities, as measured by the Euro Stoxx 50, were down -3.72% for the first half of 2018 (as compared to up 24.27% in 2017), while the UK and Japanese equity markets, as measured by the FTSE 100 and Nikkei 225, respectively, fell -0.81% and -0.12%, respectively (as compared to up 22.56% and 23.12% in 2017, respectively).
After raising interest rates three times in 2017, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) raised rates twice in the first half of 2018 and indicated in June that it may raise rates one or two more times this year. Similar to 2017, domestic investment grade bonds, as measured by the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index, trailed domestic equity markets, falling -1.62% year-to-date (as compared to up 3.54% in 2017). The ICE BofAML U.S. High Yield Total Return Index rose just 0.06% during the first half of 2018 (as compared to up 4.92% in 2017). Commodities were positive in the first half of 2018 with the S&P GSCI up 10.36% (as compared to up 5.77% in 2017), led by a 24.79% rise in oil prices that more than offset a 4.04% decline in gold. The U.S. dollar strengthened 2.55% during the first half of 2018 after declining -9.87% in 2017.
For asset allocation funds, these disparate returns meant that asset allocation decisions, and the timing of those decisions, were important drivers of performance during the period.

Global Atlantic American Funds® Managed Risk Portfolio
Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
The Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation and income while seeking to manage volatility.
The capital appreciation and income component is sub-advised by Wilshire Associates Incorporated (“Wilshire”), while the managed risk component is sub-advised by Milliman Financial Risk Management LLC (“Milliman”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio outperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Moderate Index. The Portfolio posted a return of 0.92% compared to a benchmark return of -0.86%, a difference of 178 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
The Portfolio was overweight equities versus fixed income during the first half of 2018, which contributed to performance. Within equities, the Portfolio was underweight international equities versus the benchmark, which benefited results as international and emerging markets equities underperformed domestic equities. For the first half of the year, the MSCI EAFE Index returned -2.75% and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index returned -6.66%, while domestic equities, as represented by the S&P 500 Index, returned 2.65%.
The Portfolio’s strongest performing stand-alone allocation was the American Funds Insurance Series® Growth Fund, which returned 9.95% during the period as domestic growth equities outpaced other asset classes due to strong corporate earnings and investor optimism coupled with a stronger U.S. dollar, political instability, and a possible trade war weighing on foreign equity results. The Portfolio was underweight duration during the first half of 2018, which was beneficial as U.S. interest rates rose substantially, leading to underperformance by longer duration fixed income instruments. Manager selection was a contributor to the Portfolio, adding an estimated 1.56% to performance during the first half of 2018. American Funds Insurance Series® Growth-Income Fund was the strongest contributor of alpha by posting a return of 6.58% versus 2.65% for the S&P Target Risk® Moderate Index and contributing an estimated 0.59% to manager alpha.
From a managed risk perspective, the financial markets generally rose with low volatility in 2017 and through January 2018, and the CBOE Volatility Index (“VIX”) closing below 15 every day in January. In early February, however, volatility increased sharply with the VIX rising from 13 to 37, which led to a decline in the S&P 500 Index of 9.50%. This increase in volatility was evidenced by a four-day period during which the daily range between the high and the low on the S&P 500 Index exceeded 4%. This decline was quickly followed by a rapid, partial recovery of 6.50%. Another two-day downturn in late March, when the S&P 500 Index declined 4.50%, was again followed by a rapid recovery. However, the S&P 500 Index has yet to fully recover to its pre-decline 2018 peak, which was reached in late January. While the Managed Risk Strategy helped to significantly reduce both the level of volatility and the magnitude of the drawdown in February and March 2018, the subsequent rapid recoveries resulted in the Managed Risk Strategy detracting from performance during the period.
In markets where volatility exhibits the type of behavior seen in February and March 2018 – recall that these types of V-shaped markets also occurred in 2015 and 2016 - greater levels of hedging may be required to meet the Portfolio’s investment objective. During these periods, the managed risk component meaningfully reduced the net equity exposure of the Portfolio as volatility increased and it gradually increased net equity exposure as markets recovered and volatility began to decline. While the managed risk component responded as designed during these market downturns, the exceptionally quick nature of the equity market recoveries meant that the benefit of protection the strategy provided was outweighed by its cost during the period.
How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
Relative to the beginning of 2018, the Portfolio is now further underweight foreign equities. Wilshire’s conviction in foreign equities fell during the period as differentials between economic indicators, such as the Purchasing Managers’ Index in Europe and the U.S., diminished somewhat. While Europe is more politically and economically stable today than in recent years, the new U.S. tax plan has caused some of the value to shift back to U.S. valuations versus continental Europe. Wilshire believes that increased geopolitical risks associated with the use of tariffs and rising protectionism could have a disproportionately negative impact on foreign equity markets, and a strengthening U.S. dollar could serve as a headwind to performance. Also during the period, the Portfolio enacted an overweight in domestic value equities, relative to growth equities. Wilshire observes that the prices of growth stocks could imply a high level of excess optimism, and after the extreme outperformance of growth
versus value in 2017 and early 2018, Wilshire is positioning for mean reversion in favor of value equities. Wilshire also believes that the recent U.S. tax reform could be favorable for value equities and could serve as a near-term catalyst for a cyclical rally.
Wilshire reduced the duration of the Portfolio during early 2017, partially due to its concern with the level of duration present within core fixed income indices rather than concerns that interest rates were poised to rise rapidly. From 1989 through 2011, the average modified adjusted duration of the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the “Index”) was 4.55 years, but the Index duration is nearly 6 years today. Therefore, even with an underweight duration stance, Wilshire believes that the Portfolio is likely to have at least as much interest rate risk as has historically existed within the Index.

Global Atlantic Balanced Managed Risk Portfolio
Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
The Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation and income while seeking to manage volatility.
The capital appreciation and income component is sub-advised by BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. (“BlackRock”), while the managed risk component is sub-advised by Milliman Financial Risk Management LLC (“Milliman”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio underperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Conservative Index. The Portfolio posted a return of -1.08% compared to a benchmark return of -0.96%, a difference of -12 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
The first half of 2018 saw the return of volatility in financial markets after an extraordinarily stable 2017. Equities in most developed markets declined in the first quarter over investor concerns about rising interest rates, increasing inflationary pressures and heightened trade tensions between the U.S. and its trading partners. While U.S. equity markets rebounded somewhat in the second quarter on the back of strong earnings growth, the rest of the world continued to lag. Emerging markets in particular, which had held up well in the first quarter of 2018, sold off significantly in the second quarter. Fixed income provided no safe haven, as market expectations for inflation finally caught up to what the U.S. Federal Reserve had been forecasting for several quarters, pushing bond yields higher across the curve.
The Portfolio’s tilt toward equities over fixed income throughout the first half of the year was favorable for overall performance as the higher bond yields, coupled with widening credit spreads, caused fixed income to underperform. Within equities, a tilt toward non-U.S., in particular Europe and Japan, detracted from overall performance as the U.S. outperformed these regions on the back of strong earnings fundamentals. On the fixed income side, the Portfolio maintained a relatively short duration profile throughout the first half of the year, which contributed favorably to overall performance as rates rose. However, credit spread assets, and in particular emerging market debt, detracted from Portfolio performance as credit underperformed during this period.
From a managed risk perspective, the financial markets generally rose with low volatility in 2017 and through January 2018, and the CBOE Volatility Index (“VIX”) closing below 15 every day in January. In early February, however, volatility increased sharply with the VIX rising from 13 to 37, which led to a decline in the S&P 500 Index of 9.50%. This increase in volatility was evidenced by a four-day period during which the daily range between the high and the low on the S&P 500 Index exceeded 4%. This decline was quickly followed by a rapid, partial recovery of 6.50%. Another two-day downturn in late March, when the S&P 500 Index declined 4.50%, was again followed by a rapid recovery. However, the S&P 500 Index has yet to fully recover to its pre-decline 2018 peak, which was reached in late January. While the Managed Risk Strategy helped to significantly reduce both the level of volatility and the magnitude of the drawdown in February and March 2018, the subsequent rapid recoveries resulted in the Managed Risk Strategy detracting from performance during the period.
In markets where volatility exhibits the type of behavior seen in February and March 2018 – recall that these types of V-shaped markets also occurred in 2015 and 2016 - greater levels of hedging may be required to meet the Portfolio’s investment objective. During these periods, the managed risk component meaningfully reduced the net equity exposure of the Portfolio as volatility increased and it gradually increased net equity exposure as markets recovered and volatility began to decline. While the managed risk component responded as designed during these market downturns, the exceptionally quick nature of the equity market recoveries meant that the benefit of protection the strategy provided was outweighed by its cost during the period.
How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
The Portfolio remained overweight equities relative to fixed income at period end as BlackRock believes that despite a higher level of economic uncertainty, the backdrop still remains conducive for risk taking. BlackRock believes that earnings momentum is rising across the world, particularly in the U.S. where tax reform has fueled the corporate earnings outlook. But with uncertainty around the economic outlook rising and financial conditions tightening, BlackRock prefers to reduce some Portfolio risk heading into the third quarter. Within equities, BlackRock maintained a tilt toward the Eurozone and Japanese regions at period end, but will look to scale back Eurozone exposure as home-grown risks increase. BlackRock believes that an anti-establishment, euro-skeptic Italian government and renewed tensions over immigration have raised long-run risks for
the European Union (“EU”)’s future. In BlackRock’s opinion, a non-committal outcome at the most recent summit of EU leaders provides little confidence that a crisis would be handled well.
Within fixed income, the Portfolio positioning was tilted toward shorter duration bonds at period end, and BlackRock continues to favor shorter duration as a buffer against rising rates and inflation. Within credit, BlackRock favors investment grade as a ballast to equity risk, but high valuations may limit the upside.

Global Atlantic BlackRock Global Allocation Managed Risk Portfolio
Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
The Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation and income while seeking to manage volatility.
The capital appreciation and income component is managed by the Global Atlantic Investment Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”) while the managed risk component is sub-advised by Milliman Financial Risk Management LLC (“Milliman”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio underperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Moderate Index. The Portfolio posted a return of -1.78% compared to a benchmark return of -0.86%, a difference of -92 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in the BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund. The Portfolio’s other holdings may include cash, a money market fund, and hedge instruments such as futures contracts. The BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund underperformed the S&P Target Risk® Moderate Index during the period.
From a managed risk perspective, the financial markets generally rose with low volatility in 2017 and through January 2018, and the CBOE Volatility Index (“VIX”) closing below 15 every day in January. In early February, however, volatility increased sharply with the VIX rising from 13 to 37, which led to a decline in the S&P 500 Index of 9.50%.

How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
At period end, the Portfolio’s primary investment remained the BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund.

Global Atlantic Franklin Dividend and Income Managed Risk Portfolio
Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
The Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation and income while seeking to manage volatility.
The equity and fixed income sleeves of the capital appreciation and income component is sub-advised by Franklin Advisers, Inc. (“Franklin Advisers”). Prior to March 1, 2018, the equity sleeve of the capital appreciation and income component was sub-advised by Franklin Advisory Services, LLC. The managed risk component is sub-advised by Milliman Financial Risk Management LLC (“Milliman”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio underperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Moderate Index (the “Index”). The Portfolio posted a return of -1.65% compared to a benchmark return of -0.86%, a difference of -79 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark unless otherwise noted.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
Franklin Advisers employs a bottom-up stock selection process for the equity sleeve of the Portfolio’s capital appreciation and income component, whereby the portfolio managers invest in securities without regard to benchmark comparisons. As a result, the Portfolio frequently contains sector and security allocations that may be significantly different from those of the Index. With respect to the equity sleeve’s performance versus the S&P 500 Index, the equity portfolio underperformed (net of fees), posting a return of 0.43% compared to an S&P 500 Index return of 2.65%, a difference of -122 basis points.
The Portfolio’s best-performing stocks on a relative basis included Tiffany & Co. (1.11%), Nike, Inc. (1.57%) and Becton, Dickinson and Company (2.62%). Shares of Tiffany, a retailer of high-end jewelry, rose sharply over the period due to a strong first-quarter earnings report released in May. Increased innovation, investment in advertising and digital assets, supply chain improvements and an improving consumer environment all benefited sales during the period, as the new management team’s design and operating initiatives gained momentum. Tiffany has raised its dividend for 16 years.
Shares of Nike, a designer and marketer of athletic footwear, rose on improving results in its key North American market. The company is employing a mix of direct selling, e-commerce, differentiated retail concepts and innovation to drive growth. In our view, a greater use of technology has revolutionized Nike’s ability to connect with customers, manage its inventory and upgrade its manufacturing capabilities. Nike has raised its dividend for 16 years.
Shares of Becton Dickinson, a global medical technology company, rose on a strong quarterly earnings report released in May. Revenue and earnings accelerators included a strong pipeline, synergies from its acquisition of C.R. Bard Inc. and emerging-market exposure. Becton Dickinson has raised its dividend for 46 years.
Holdings that detracted from the Portfolio’s relative performance included General Dynamics Corporation (1.65%), Dover Corporation (1.45%), and Roper Technologies, Inc. (2.69%). General Dynamics, an aerospace and defense company, saw its shares move lower after the company reported sequentially weaker bookings in its aerospace systems business. The first quarter has historically seen weaker bookings for the company, and the portfolio managers believe its backlog remains robust and bodes well for earnings growth over the next several years. In addition, if widely expected increases in U.S. defense spending occur, Franklin Advisers believes that it should benefit General Dynamics. The company has raised its dividend for 21 consecutive years.
Shares of Dover, a diversified industrial company, were weak over the period despite the company reporting solid financial results. Franklin Advisers believes that share performance during the period was likely due to concerns surrounding the negative impact of restrictive trade actions. While global trade concerns have weighed on industrial stocks in general, the portfolio managers believe the recent appointment of Richard Tobin as Dover’s chief executive officer could act as a catalyst in the near future given his reputation for strong operational leadership. Dover has grown its dividend for 62 consecutive years.
Roper Technologies, a diversified industrial company, saw its shares decline during the period despite reporting strong revenue and earnings growth, as well as healthy cash flow generation. The company raised its full-year organic revenue growth and earnings-per-share targets, and it expects to continue achieving strong operating results during 2018. Roper has grown its dividend for 25 consecutive years.
With respect to the fixed income sleeve’s performance versus its reference benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index, the fixed income portfolio underperformed (net of fees), posting a return of -1.86% compared to a benchmark return of -1.62%, a difference of -24 basis points. The first quarter of calendar year 2018 saw the return of volatility to the market as the yield on the 10-year Treasury bond reached the highest levels since early 2014. The initial reaction in risk spreads came in high yield bonds. Although volatility subsided and high yield bond spreads recovered somewhat into the second quarter, weaker demand from foreign investors combined with robust supply started to drive investment-grade credit spreads wider. Growing concern about trade conflicts and the coming end of quantitative easing from global central banks were additional factors that pressured spreads wider in both investment-grade corporate credit and emerging market bonds. Overall, emerging-market bonds and investment-grade corporate credit underperformed Treasury bonds on a duration-adjusted basis during the period. In contrast, high-yield corporate credit and senior secured floating rate loans outperformed. In terms of rates, the two-year Treasury bond yield rose by more than 65 basis points, while the 10-year Treasury bond yield rose by more than 40 basis points.
During the period, the Portfolio’s sector allocation contributed to relative performance on a duration-adjusted basis, while security selection detracted. The Portfolio’s exposure to high-yield corporate credit, senior secured floating rate loans, collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) and Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) all contributed to relative performance. In contrast, security selection in high-yield corporate credit and fixed-rate agency mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) detracted from relative returns. The net impact from emerging markets was negligible as the drag from allocation was offset by relative gains from the higher quality bias in the Portfolio’s holdings. Relative to the benchmark, duration positioning detracted slightly. Currency also detracted, as gains in the Mexican peso and Canadian dollar were offset by losses in the Swedish krona, Brazilian real and Indian rupee.
From a managed risk perspective, the financial markets generally rose with low volatility in 2017 and through January 2018, and the CBOE Volatility Index (“VIX”) closing below 15 every day in January. In early February however, volatility increased sharply with the VIX rising from 13 to 37, which led to a decline in the S&P 500 Index of 9.50%. This increase in volatility was evidenced by a four-day period during which the daily range between the high and the low on the S&P 500 Index exceeded 4%. This decline was quickly followed by a rapid, partial recovery of 6.50%. Another two-day downturn in late March, when the S&P 500 Index declined 4.50%, was again followed by a rapid recovery. However, the S&P 500 Index has yet to fully recover to its pre-decline 2018 peak, which was reached in late January. While the Managed Risk Strategy helped to significantly reduce both the level of volatility and the magnitude of the drawdown in February and March 2018, the subsequent rapid recoveries resulted in the Managed Risk Strategy detracting from performance during the period.
In markets where volatility exhibits the type of behavior seen in February and March 2018 – recall that these types of V-shaped markets also occurred in 2015 and 2016 - greater levels of hedging may be required to meet the Portfolio’s investment objective. During these periods, the managed risk component meaningfully reduced the net equity exposure of the Portfolio as volatility increased and it gradually increased net equity exposure as markets recovered and volatility began to decline. While the managed risk component responded as designed during these market downturns, the exceptionally quick nature of the equity market recoveries meant that the benefit of protection the strategy provided was outweighed by its cost during the period.
How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
At period end, in the equity sleeve of the capital appreciation and income component, the Portfolio’s largest sector concentration was industrials, followed by health care and information technology. The Portfolio’s largest holdings were Microsoft Corporation (information technology) (3.03%), Roper Technologies (industrials), Stryker Corporation (health care) (2.66%), Albemarle Corporation (materials) (2.62%) and Becton Dickinson (health care). The Portfolio did not initiate any new positions during the period. Conversely, the Portfolio exited its positions in Archer Daniels Midland Company and RLI Corp., while reducing positions in John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (0.34%), Accenture (2.55%) and Becton Dickinson.
On the fixed income side, given the length of the credit cycle and impending U.S. Federal Reserve rate hikes, the portfolio managers continue to prefer senior secured floating rate loans and CLOs over high yield and investment grade credit in the corporate credit sectors. As such, the Portfolio added to senior secured floating rate loans and CLOs and reduced its positioning in high yield and investment grade credit throughout the period, resulting in an overweight to senior secured floating rate loans and CLOs and a reduced overweight in high yield and investment grade credit. Within the securitized sectors, the Portfolio has a large overweight to RMBS based on strong U.S. housing fundamentals and remains slightly underweight the commercial mortgage-backed securities and MBS sectors. Other notable changes over the period included continuation of shifts out of investment grade entities into sovereign developed entities and incremental additions to the Portfolio’s sovereign emerging market exposure through China state-owned enterprises and credit default swaps. The Portfolio also reduced its inflation exposure as the 10-year breakeven inflation rate (a market-based measure of expected inflation) rose. At period-end, the Portfolio was underweight sovereign developed bonds and overweight sovereign emerging market bonds and TIPS.
On the currency side, the Portfolio continued to reduce its position sizing and risk, starting the period slightly long U.S. dollar, but moving to a slightly short position early on and ending the period short the U.S. dollar. The Portfolio completely closed out several positions including shorts in the Australian dollar, British pound, South Korean won, Japanese yen and Singapore dollar as well as its long position in the Norwegian krone. At period-end, the Portfolio’s largest currency position remained a long position in the Mexican peso with other long positions being in the Indian rupee, Swedish krona, Indonesian rupiah, Brazilian real and Polish zloty. The Portfolio was short the euro, Canadian dollar and Philippine peso. In U.S. dollar duration, the Portfolio was short versus the Index, retaining a yield curve flattener with a short concentrated in the two-year part of the curve. In non-U.S. dollar duration, the Portfolio remained slightly long Australian dollar and Canadian dollar duration and initiated a short euro duration versus long U.S. dollar duration on the 10-year part of the curve.

Global Atlantic Goldman Sachs Dynamic Trends Allocation Portfolio
Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
The Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation and income while seeking to manage volatility.
The Portfolio is sub-advised by Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio underperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Conservative Index. The Portfolio posted a return of -1.60% compared to a benchmark return of -0.96%, a difference of -64 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
Using a momentum-based methodology to dynamically allocate across global asset classes, the Portfolio seeks to manage risk and enhance long-term returns in changing market environments. Momentum investing seeks exposure to asset classes that have exhibited positive trends in price performance over selected time periods.
Relative to the S&P Target Risk® Conservative Index, the Portfolio’s greater allocation to equities contributed to returns in the first half of 2018. While global equity markets experienced mixed results in the first quarter, their performance relative to fixed income markets was strong. Given U.S. Federal Reserve Board monetary policy, interest rates continued to rise in the first half of the year, leading to poor fixed income performance. Additionally, U.S. equities have continued to outperform their international peers, which benefited the Portfolio’s performance due to its relative overweight to U.S. equities within its equity allocation.
While the Portfolio’s equity exposures broadly benefited performance, an allocation to U.S. Treasuries detracted from returns. The Portfolio’s options holdings also detracted from performance over the reporting period. This stemmed primarily from purchased put options which were more expensive due to rising volatility in markets, and markets that did not fall enough for the put options to benefit performance. While the sold call options did generate some premium that helped to offset negative contributions from the put options, the size of the premium was not large enough to offset the cost of the protection afforded by the puts.
How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
As of June 30, 2018, the Portfolio had approximately 60% of its assets in equities. Regionally, 47.5% of its assets were invested in U.S. equities, given overall strong momentum. This domestic allocation was 25.0% large-cap, 10.0% mid-cap and 12.5% small-cap equities. Within international equity, the Portfolio held a 6.25% allocation each to both Japanese and U.K. equities given moderate equity market momentum within those markets. The Portfolio currently does not have an allocation to European equities given poor trends. From a fixed income perspective, the Portfolio currently holds 40% in U.S. Treasuries, its minimum strategic allocation. This underweight is driven by poor trends in fixed income relative to equity.

Global Atlantic Growth Managed Risk Portfolio
Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
The Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation and income while seeking to manage volatility.
The capital appreciation and income component is sub-advised by BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. (“BlackRock”), while the managed risk component is sub-advised by Milliman Financial Risk Management LLC (“Milliman”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio underperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Growth Index. The Portfolio posted a return of -1.20% compared to a benchmark return of -0.67%, a difference of -53 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
The first half of 2018 saw the return of volatility in financial markets after an extraordinarily stable 2017. Equities in most developed markets declined in the first quarter over investor concerns about rising interest rates, increasing inflationary pressures and heightened trade tensions between the U.S. and its trading partners. While U.S. equity markets rebounded somewhat in the second quarter on the back of strong earnings growth, the rest of the world continued to lag. Emerging markets in particular, which had held up well in the first quarter of 2018, sold off significantly in the second quarter. Fixed income provided no safe haven, as market expectations for inflation finally caught up to what the U.S. Federal Reserve had been forecasting for several quarters, pushing bond yields higher across the curve.
The Portfolio’s tilt toward equities over fixed income throughout the first half of the year was favorable for overall performance as the higher bond yields, coupled with widening credit spreads, caused fixed income to underperform. Within equities, a tilt toward non-U.S., in particular Europe and Japan, detracted from overall performance as the U.S. outperformed these regions on the back of strong earnings fundamentals. On the fixed income side, the Portfolio maintained a relatively short duration profile throughout the first half of the year, which contributed favorably to overall performance as rates rose. However, credit spread assets, and in particular emerging market debt, detracted from Portfolio performance as credit underperformed during this period.
From a managed risk perspective, the financial markets generally rose with low volatility in 2017 and through January 2018, and the CBOE Volatility Index (“VIX”) closing below 15 every day in January. In early February however, volatility increased sharply with the VIX rising from 13 to 37, which led to a decline in the S&P 500 Index of 9.50%. This increase in volatility was evidenced by a four-day period during which the daily range between the high and the low on the S&P 500 Index exceeded 4%. This decline was quickly followed by a rapid, partial recovery of 6.50%. Another two-day downturn in late March, when the S&P 500 Index declined 4.50%, was again followed by a rapid recovery. However, the S&P 500 Index has yet to fully recover to its pre-decline 2018 peak, which was reached in late January. While the Managed Risk Strategy helped to significantly reduce both the level of volatility and the magnitude of the drawdown in February and March 2018, the subsequent rapid recoveries resulted in the Managed Risk Strategy detracting from performance during the period.
In markets where volatility exhibits the type of behavior seen in February and March 2018 – recall that these types of V-shaped markets also occurred in 2015 and 2016 - greater levels of hedging may be required to meet the Portfolio’s investment objective. During these periods, the managed risk component meaningfully reduced the net equity exposure of the Portfolio as volatility increased and it gradually increased net equity exposure as markets recovered and volatility began to decline. While the managed risk component responded as designed during these market downturns, the exceptionally quick nature of the equity market recoveries meant that the benefit of protection the strategy provided was outweighed by its cost during the period.
How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
The Portfolio remained overweight equities relative to fixed income at period end as BlackRock believes that despite a higher level of economic uncertainty, the backdrop still remains conducive for risk taking. BlackRock believes that earnings momentum is rising across the world, particularly in the U.S. where tax reform has fueled the corporate earnings outlook. But with uncertainty around the economic outlook rising and financial conditions tightening, BlackRock prefers to reduce some Portfolio risk heading into the third quarter. Within equities, BlackRock maintained a tilt toward the Eurozone and Japanese regions at period end, but will look to scale back Eurozone exposure as home-grown risks increase. BlackRock believes that an anti-establishment, euro-skeptic Italian government and renewed tensions over immigration have raised long-run risks for
the European Union (“EU”)’s future. In BlackRock’s opinion, a non-committal outcome at the most recent summit of EU leaders provides little confidence that a crisis would be handled well.
Within fixed income, the Portfolio positioning was tilted toward shorter duration bonds at period end, and BlackRock continues to favor shorter duration as a buffer against rising rates and inflation. Within credit, BlackRock favors investment grade as a ballast to equity risk, but high valuations may limit the upside.

Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
The Portfolio seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.
Management Review
The Portfolio is sub-advised by Motif Capital Management, Inc. (“Motif”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio outperformed its reference benchmark, the Russell 3000 Technology Index. The Portfolio posted a return of 20.07% compared to a benchmark return of 10.35%, a difference of 972 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
On theme level absolute contribution, software-as-a-service, e-commerce, digital payments, and online video were the leaders, while connected car, smart grid, and semiconductor equipment lagged. In terms of segment allocation, compared to the benchmark, an overweight to data processing & outsourced services, internet & direct marketing retail and application software benefitted the Portfolio, as did underweights in semiconductors equipment and systems software.
Stock selection also contributed to performance, particularly within internet software & services, where the Portfolio held larger positions as compared to the benchmark in stocks such as Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (BABA) (2.42%), Arista Networks Inc. (ANET) (0.87%), and Alphabet Inc. (GOOG) (2.56%).
Top contributors to Portfolio performance versus the benchmark were overweight positions in Netflix, Inc. (NFLX) (2.22%), Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) (2.89%), and Twilio Inc. (TWLO) (0.89%), while top detractors were underweight positions in Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) (0.00%) and NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) (0.00%) and an overweight in NetEase Inc. (NTES) (0.72%).
Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN): engaged in innovation in the technology space, the company claimed the top spot in the U.S. for research and development spending. It has invested resources in the research and development of Amazon Web Service, Alexa and technologies such as computer vision to support its projects like Amazon Go cashier-less store of the future. The company has also announced opening of Tech Hub and centers to infuse growth in fields like machine learning, speech science, cloud computing and robotics engineering.
Twilio Inc. (TWLO): engaged in innovation in cloud communication platform, the company launched new capabilities to enable multi-user augmented reality as a part of its Programmable Video Platform.

NetEase Inc. (NTES): is an online internet and online game services provider. The company reported a decline in its gross profit for the first quarter of 2018 as compared to the first quarter of 2017, owing to an 18.4% decline in the revenues from online game services. Additionally, there was a 75% increase in the total operating expenses due to increased marketing expenditures related to online games and research and development investments, as well as higher staff-related costs.
How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
At period end, the Portfolio was positioned towards the themes of software-as-a-service (21%), e-commerce (19%), and digital payments (13%), which displayed attractive value, quality, growth, and momentum characteristics. Top segments for the Portfolio include enterprise applications (10%), e-commerce retailers (9%), social networking (8%), card networks (6%), and industry vertical solutions (6%). Top holdings for the Portfolio include Facebook Inc. (3.12%), Alphabet Inc. (2.81%), Amazon.com, Inc. (2.81%), and Visa Inc. (2.59%).

Global Atlantic PIMCO Tactical Allocation Portfolio
Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
Investment Objective
The Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation and income while seeking to manage volatility.
Management Review
The Portfolio is sub-advised by Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio underperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Moderate Index. The Portfolio posted a return of -1.80% compared to a benchmark return of -0.86%, a difference of -94 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark unless otherwise noted.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
After a year of low volatility and strong risk asset returns, the start to 2018 was highlighted by the return of volatility as rising interest rates and geopolitical concerns contributed to more challenged performance across equities and credit. Amid the market turbulence, the Portfolio tactically adjusted equity exposure throughout the period. The dynamic equity allocation detracted from performance amid sharp bouts of market volatility toward the beginning and middle of the period. A focus on non-U.S. developed market equities detracted as these equities trended lower, while on the other hand, underweight exposure to emerging market equities contributed to performance as these also fell in the first half of the year. Lastly, the Portfolio’s investment in S&P 500 Index put options, used to hedge against equity market shocks, was neutral to slightly positive for performance amid several sharp drops in the S&P 500 Index.
The Portfolio’s fixed income allocations contributed to performance. An overall underweight to U.S. duration added to performance as rates rose across the curve. Within spread sectors, select positions of non-Agency mortgage backed securities and Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) were positive. A modest short position in U.K. rates was additive as Gilt yields rose over the period.
How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
At period end, the Portfolio maintained equal to slightly above benchmark equity exposure as market volatility crept higher toward the end of the period. Within equities, the Portfolio was overweight U.S. large cap equities, equal weight international developed markets equities, and underweight emerging markets equities. Within fixed income, the Portfolio remained underweight duration overall with a preference for U.S. duration against rate exposure in other developed regions. PIMCO believes that the intermediate portion of the curve continues to offer attractive characteristics while longer-term rates may rise as the U.S. Federal Reserve continues to reduce accommodation and term premiums return. PIMCO finds attractive opportunities in specific credits that benefit from U.S. growth and a resurgent housing sector, though the Portfolio overall remains underweight investment grade credit.

Global Atlantic Select Advisor Managed Risk Portfolio
Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
Investment Objective
The Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation and income while seeking to manage volatility.
Management Review
The capital appreciation and income component is sub-advised by Wilshire Associates Incorporated (“Wilshire”), while the managed risk component is sub-advised by Milliman Financial Risk Management LLC (“Milliman”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio outperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Moderate Index. The Portfolio posted a return of 0.40% compared to a benchmark return of -0.86%, a difference of 126 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
The Portfolio was overweight equities versus fixed income during the first half of 2018, which contributed to performance. Within equities, the Portfolio was underweight international equities versus the benchmark, which benefited results as international and emerging markets equities underperformed domestic equities. For the first half of the year, the MSCI EAFE Index returned -2.75% and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index returned -6.66%, while domestic equities, as represented by the S&P 500 Index, returned 2.65%.
The Portfolio’s strongest performing stand-alone allocation was the MFS® VIT Growth Fund, which returned 12.29% as domestic growth equities outpaced other asset classes due to strong corporate earnings and investor optimism coupled with a stronger U.S. dollar, political instability, and a possible trade war weighing on foreign equity results. The Portfolio was underweight duration during the first half of 2018, which was beneficial as U.S. interest rates rose substantially, leading to underperformance by longer duration fixed income instruments. Manager selection was a contributor to the Portfolio, adding an estimated 1.08% to performance during the first half of 2018. The MFS® VIT Growth Fund was the strongest contributor of alpha by posting a return of 12.29% versus 7.25% for the Russell 1000 Growth TR index and contributing an estimated 0.66% to manager alpha.
From a managed risk perspective, the financial markets generally rose with low volatility in 2017 and through January 2018, and the CBOE Volatility Index (“VIX”) closing below 15 every day in January. In early February however, volatility increased sharply with the VIX rising from 13 to 37, which led to a decline in the S&P 500 Index of 9.50%. This increase in volatility was evidenced by a four-day period during which the daily range between the high and the low on the S&P 500 Index exceeded 4%. This decline was quickly followed by a rapid, partial recovery of 6.50%. Another two-day downturn in late March, when the S&P 500 Index declined 4.50%, was again followed by a rapid recovery. However, the S&P 500 Index has yet to fully recover to its pre-decline 2018 peak, which was reached in late January. While the Managed Risk Strategy helped to significantly reduce both the level of volatility and the magnitude of the drawdown in February and March 2018, the subsequent rapid recoveries resulted in the Managed Risk Strategy detracting from performance during the period.
In markets where volatility exhibits the type of behavior seen in February and March 2018 – recall that these types of V-shaped markets also occurred in 2015 and 2016 - greater levels of hedging may be required to meet the Portfolio’s investment objective. During these periods, the managed risk component meaningfully reduced the net equity exposure of the Portfolio as volatility increased and it gradually increased net equity exposure as markets recovered and volatility began to decline. While the managed risk component responded as designed during these market downturns, the exceptionally quick nature of the equity market recoveries meant that the benefit of protection the strategy provided was outweighed by its cost during the period.
How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
Relative to the beginning of 2018, the Portfolio is now further underweight foreign equities. Wilshire’s conviction in foreign equities fell during the period as differentials between economic indicators, such as the Purchasing Managers’ Index in Europe and the U.S., diminished somewhat. While Europe is more politically and economically stable today than in recent years, the new U.S. tax plan has caused some of the value to shift back to the U.S. valuations versus continental Europe. Wilshire believes that increased geopolitical risks associated with the use of tariffs and rising protectionism could have a disproportionately negative impact on foreign equity markets, and a strengthening U.S. dollar could serve as a headwind to performance. Also during the period, the Portfolio enacted an overweight in domestic value equities, relative to growth equities. Wilshire observes that the prices of growth stocks could imply a high level of excess optimism, and after the extreme outperformance of growth
versus value in 2017 and early 2018, Wilshire is positioning for mean reversion in favor of value equities. Wilshire also believes that the recent tax reform could be favorable for value equities and could serve as a near-term catalyst for a cyclical rally.
Wilshire reduced the duration of the Portfolio during early 2017, partially due to its concern with the level of duration present within core fixed income indices rather than concerns that interest rates were poised to rise rapidly. From 1989 through 2011, the average modified adjusted duration of the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index (the “Index”) was 4.55 years, but the Index duration is nearly 6 years today. Therefore, even with an underweight stance, Wilshire believes that the Portfolio is likely to have at least as much interest rate risk as has historically existed within the Index.

Global Atlantic Wellington Research Managed Risk Portfolio
Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
Investment Objective
The Portfolio seeks to provide capital appreciation and income while seeking to manage volatility.
Management Review
The capital appreciation and income component is sub-advised by Wellington Management Company LLP (“Wellington”) while the managed risk component is sub-advised by Milliman Financial Risk Management LLC (“Milliman”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio outperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Moderate Index. The Portfolio posted a return of 0.00% compared to a benchmark return of -0.86%, a difference of 86 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark unless otherwise noted.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
The equity portion of the Portfolio outperformed the S&P 500 Index, gross of fees, for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Relative equity outperformance was driven by strong stock selection within the industrials, utilities, and financials sectors. This was partially offset by weaker security selection within the energy, consumer staples, and materials sectors. Positive relative returns within the industrials sector were driven particularly by stock selection in the machinery sub-sector. Within the energy sector, the Portfolio’s holdings in oil & gas companies detracted the most from relative performance.
Top relative contributors of the equity portion of the Portfolio included a position in Wayfair, Inc. (consumer discretionary) (0.49%), an online home furnishings company; and the Portfolio’s avoidance of Johnson & Johnson (health care) (0.0%), U.S.-based multinational medical devices, pharmaceutical and consumer packaged goods manufacturer. Shares of Wayfair surged after the company reported better-than-expected revenue for the first quarter and management raised second quarter sales guidance, driven by strong customer adds. Wellington’s U.S. Research Equity team believes Wayfair is well positioned to grow its home goods category with a large customer base, diverse product offerings, and a growing distribution network. Not holding Johnson & Johnson also contributed to relative performance. The stock price fell after it was reported that there would be court proceedings for numerous lawsuits claiming its talc products may contain asbestos.
Top relative detractors of the equity portion of the Portfolio included an underweight to Apple Inc. (information technology) (1.37%), a U.S.-based technology company that designs, develops, and sells consumer electronics, computer software, and online services; and a position in Coty, Inc. (consumer staples) (0.30%), an emerging beauty franchise. The Portfolio’s underweight to Apple detracted from relative performance as the company reported better-than-expected second quarter bottom line results that were supported by strong services revenue growth. In addition, Apple announced a new $100 billion share repurchase program and a 16% increase in its quarterly dividend. Shares of Coty fell after the company reported mixed quarterly results. Stronger-than-expected top-line results in the luxury division were offset by weakness in the consumer beauty business. Coty has been wrestling with the integration of the beauty brands business it purchased from Procter & Gamble Co., but the synergies look as though they are beginning to come through.
The fixed income portion of the Portfolio outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index, gross of fees, for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Security selection within investment grade corporates and taxable municipal bonds both contributed to outperformance. Investment grade credit positioning contributed positively overall as negative impacts from an overweight to financials and utilities were slightly offset by a positive impact from an overweight to and security selection within industrials. Security selection within taxable municipals and sovereign issuers also contributed to results. Within securitized sectors, an out-of-benchmark position in collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) contributed modestly, while security selection within agency mortgage backed securities (“MBS”), particularly within collateralized mortgage obligation (“CMOs”), detracted from performance. An out-of-benchmark allocation to long breakeven inflation positioning via Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) contributed to relative performance. During the period, the fixed income portion of the Portfolio was positioned with a short duration bias which contributed to relative results, particularly the Portfolio’s positioning in the short and intermediate region of the yield curve.
From a managed risk perspective, the financial markets generally rose with low volatility in 2017 and through January 2018, and the CBOE Volatility Index (“VIX”) closing below 15 every day in January. In early February however, volatility increased sharply with the VIX rising from 13 to 37, which led to a decline in the S&P 500 Index of 9.50%. This increase in volatility was evidenced by a four-day period during which the daily range between the high and the low on the S&P 500 Index exceeded 4%. This decline was quickly followed by a rapid, partial recovery of 6.50%. Another two-day downturn in late March, when the S&P 500 Index declined 4.50%, was again followed by a rapid recovery. However, the S&P 500 Index has yet to fully recover to its pre-decline 2018 peak, which was reached in late January. While the Managed Risk Strategy helped to significantly reduce both the level of volatility and the magnitude of the drawdown in February and March 2018, the subsequent rapid recoveries resulted in the Managed Risk Strategy detracting from performance during the period.
In markets where volatility exhibits the type of behavior seen in February and March 2018 – recall that these types of V-shaped markets also occurred in 2015 and 2016 - greater levels of hedging may be required to meet the Portfolio’s investment objective. During these periods, the managed risk component meaningfully reduced the net equity exposure of the Portfolio as volatility increased and it gradually increased net equity exposure as markets recovered and volatility began to decline. While the managed risk component responded as designed during these market downturns, the exceptionally quick nature of the equity market recoveries meant that the benefit of protection the strategy provided was outweighed by its cost during the period.
How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
The equity portion of the Portfolio, which consists of multiple sub-portfolios, is generally industry-neutral and is designed to add value through actively managed, fundamental, bottom-up stock selection by one or more of Wellington’s global industry analysts. The allocation of assets to each sub-portfolio corresponds to the relative weight of the analysts’ coverage universe within the S&P 500 Index. However, within in an industry, an analyst’s stock selection may result in an overweight or underweight to certain sub-industries in his or her coverage area.
Looking ahead, Wellington’s global industry analysts remain focused on fundamental, bottom-up stock selection with an eye to how the macro-economic outlook will affect the companies in which they invest. Wellington continues to try to identify themes and opportunities that will shape future investment decisions.
Within the health care sector, Wellington continues to seek companies dedicated to ground-breaking innovation or the provision of value, i.e., high-quality health care at a lower cost. It’s the analysts’ view that while some companies will clearly thrive in this environment, others will struggle to meet ever-increasing standards of performance.
Global brands and e-commerce continue to be important investment themes in the equity portion of the Portfolio. Wellington Management initiated a position in Coca-Cola Company (0.57%) and added to the Portfolio’s position in Amazon.com (2.06%) during the period. Wellington’s opinion on Coca-Cola is that the company can generate higher-than-expected earnings and cash flow, while increasing return on invested capital (ROIC) driven by: 1) topline improvement in their major markets, 2) cost cutting to support margin expansion, and 3) progress towards increasing their ROIC post-refranchising bottling operations in the U.S. Wellington increased the position in Amazon, making it one of the larger active weights in the equity portion of the Portfolio. Wellington believes the fundamentals across Amazon’s three key business units: Marketplace, Amazon Prime, and Amazon Web Services, remain robust.
At the end of the period, the fixed income portion of the Portfolio was positioned with a short duration posture. The Portfolio continues to be moderately pro-cyclically positioned in credit markets as the fixed income investment team believes the U.S. economic growth momentum will continue and global growth will be sustained. Within spread (non-government bond) sectors, the Portfolio was overweight taxable municipal bonds, which Wellington believes should offer diversification benefits, and overweight corporate bonds - but was incrementally reducing cyclicality and increasing average quality - favoring U.S. financials. The Portfolio is positioned with an overweight to asset-backed securities, continuing to add to exposure to high quality CLOs, and select commercial mortgage-backed securities. Commercial mortgage-backed securities’ (“CMBS”) fundamentals remain strong and CLO valuations are compelling. Additionally, the Portfolio maintained long inflation breakevens via an allocation to TIPS. The Portfolio is underweight agency MBS pass-throughs given current valuations and the investment team’s expectations of modest interest rate volatility by the U.S. Federal Reserve. The Portfolio owns a small out-of-benchmark allocation to Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing securities (“FNMA DUS”) and CMOs for their superior income and convexity profiles. The Portfolio holds select non-agency MBS issues given attractive valuations and a stable housing market environment.

Global Atlantic Wilshire Dynamic Conservative Allocation Portfolio
Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
Investment Objective
The Portfolio seeks to provide current income and long-term capital appreciation.
Management Review
The Portfolio is sub-advised by Wilshire Associates Incorporated (“Wilshire”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio outperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Moderate Index. The Portfolio posted a return of -0.28% compared to a benchmark return of -0.86%, a difference of 58 basis points. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to this benchmark.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
The Portfolio still delivered meaningful alpha during the first half of 2018 as an underweight position in international equities relative to the benchmark benefitted performance while domestic equities far outpaced foreign equities. For the first half of the year, the MSCI EAFE Index returned -2.75%, and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index returned -6.66%. Domestic equities, as represented by the S&P 500 Index, returned 2.65%. The Portfolio also benefited from being relatively overweight domestic small cap equities. The Portfolio was underweight duration during the first half of 2018, which was beneficial as U.S. interest rates rose substantially, leading to underperformance by longer duration fixed income instruments.
The Portfolio’s strongest performing stand-alone allocation was the MFS® VIT Growth Fund, which returned 12.29% as domestic growth equities outpaced other asset classes due to strong corporate earnings and investor optimism coupled with a stronger U.S. dollar, political instability, and a possible trade war weighing on foreign equity results. Manager selection was a contributor to the Portfolio, adding an estimated 0.19% to performance during the first half of 2018. The MFS® VIT Growth Fund was the strongest contributor of alpha, posting a return of 12.29% versus 7.25% for the Russell 1000 Growth TR Index and contributing an estimated 0.25% to manager alpha.
How was the Portfolio positioned at period end?
Relative to the beginning of 2018, the Portfolio is now further underweight foreign equities. Wilshire’s conviction in foreign equities fell during the period as differentials between economic indicators, such as Purchasing Managers’ Index in Europe and the U.S., diminished somewhat. While Europe is more politically and economically stable today than in recent years, the new U.S. tax plan has caused some of the value to shift back to U.S. valuations versus continental Europe. Wilshire believes that increased geopolitical risks associated with the use of tariffs and rising protectionism could have a disproportionately negative impact on foreign equity markets, and a strengthening U.S. dollar could serve as a headwind to performance. Also during the period, the Portfolio enacted an overweight in domestic value equities, relative to growth equities. Wilshire observes that the prices of growth stocks could imply a high level of excess optimism, and after the extreme outperformance of growth versus value in 2017 and early 2018, Wilshire is positioning for mean reversion in favor of value equities. Wilshire also believes that the recent U.S. tax reform could be favorable for value equities and could serve as a near-term catalyst for a cyclical rally.
Wilshire reduced the duration of the Portfolio during early 2017, partially due to its concern with the level of duration present within core fixed income indices rather than concerns that interest rates were poised to rise rapidly. From 1989 through 2011, the average modified adjusted duration of the Bbg Barclays US Agg Bond Index (the “Index”) was 4.55 years, but the Index duration is nearly 6 years today. Therefore, even with an underweight stance, Wilshire believes that the Portfolio is likely to have at least as much interest rate risk as has historically existed within the Index.

Management Review
The Portfolio is sub-advised by Wilshire Associates Incorporated (“Wilshire”).
How did the Portfolio perform during the period?
During the first six months of 2018, the Portfolio outperformed its reference benchmark, the S&P Target Risk® Aggressive Index. The Portfolio posted a return of 14.78% compared to a benchmark return of -0.49%, a difference of 1,527 basis points. Performance was materially positively impacted by a significant shareholder redemption that occurred on March 29, 2018 and represented 94% of the Portfolio’s assets. On the same day as the redemption, the equity market rallied, with the S&P 500 Index up 1.4%. As the Portfolio’s holdings were sold into this rally to cover the significant shareholder redemption, the remaining shareholders realized a daily net asset value (“NAV”) change of 15.3%. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to the S&P Target Risk® Aggressive Index.
What factors and allocation decisions influenced the Portfolio’s performance?
The largest driver of performance during the first half of 2018 was the aforementioned redemption. Excluding the effect of the redemption, the Portfolio delivered meaningful alpha during the first half of 2018 as an underweight position in international equities benefited results with international and emerging markets equities underperforming domestic equities. For the first half of the year, the MSCI EAFE Index returned -2.75% and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index returned -6.66%, while domestic equities, as represented by the S&P 500 Index, returned 2.65%. The Portfolio also benefited from being relatively overweight domestic small cap equities. The Portfolio was underweight duration during the first half of 2018, which was beneficial as U.S. interest rates rose substantially, leading to underperformance by longer duration fixed income instruments.
The Portfolio’s strongest performing stand-alone allocation was the MFS® VIT Growth Fund, which returned 12.29% as domestic growth equities outpaced other asset classes due strong corporate earnings and investor optimism coupled with a stronger U.S. dollar, political instability, and a possible trade war weighing on foreign equity results. Manager selection was a contributor to the Portfolio, adding an estimated 0.82% to performance during the first half of 2018. The MFS® VIT Growth Fund was the strongest contributor of alpha by posting a return of 12.29% versus 7.25% for the Russell 1000 Growth TR Index and contributing an estimated 0.59% to manager alpha.

Therefore, even with an underweight duration stance, Wilshire believes that the Portfolio is likely to have at least as much interest rate risk as has historically existed within the Index.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
June 30, 2018 (Unaudited) |
The Global Atlantic Portfolios (each, a “Portfolio” and collectively, the “Portfolios”) are comprised of twenty-six different actively managed portfolios, thirteen of which are discussed in this report. Each Portfolio is a series of shares of beneficial interest of Forethought Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”), a statutory trust organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company.

At a meeting held on May 17, 2018, upon the recommendation of Global Atlantic Investment Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”), the Board of Trustees of the Trust (“Board”) approved a proposal to liquidate each of Global Atlantic Motif Technological Innovations Portfolio, Global Atlantic Wilshire Dynamic Conservative Allocation Portfolio and Global Atlantic Wilshire Dynamic Growth Allocation Portfolio (each, a “Proposed Liquidating Portfolio”). Contingent on contract holder approval, each Proposed Liquidating Portfolio will be liquidated on or about December 21, 2018. Each Proposed Liquidating Portfolio shall cease its business and may depart from its stated investment objective and policies on or about December 14, 2018 as it prepares to liquidate and distribute its assets to shareholders. It is anticipated that each Portfolio’s portfolio will be positioned into cash, cash equivalents or other liquid assets on or prior to the December 21, 2018. In connection with the liquidations, all outstanding shares of a Proposed Liquidating Portfolio on the applicable Liquidation Date will be automatically redeemed by the Portfolio. Each shareholder of record on the Liquidation Date will receive proceeds of the automatic redemptions equal to the shareholder’s proportionate interest in a Proposed Liquidating Portfolio’s net assets plus accrued and unpaid earnings of the Proposed Liquidating Portfolio at the time of liquidation.
Global Atlantic Goldman Sachs Dynamic Trends Allocation Portfolio, Global Atlantic Motif Technological Innovations Portfolio, Global Atlantic Wilshire Dynamic Conservative Allocation Portfolio and Global Atlantic Wilshire Dynamic Growth Allocation Portfolio are non-diversified series of the Trust; all other Portfolios are diversified. Certain of the Portfolios operate as “fund of funds.” A “fund of funds” typically invests in multiple underlying funds and the level of its interest in any particular underlying fund may fluctuate. The Portfolios are intended to be funding vehicles for variable annuity contracts offered by the separate accounts of Forethought Life Insurance Company. The assets of each Portfolio are segregated and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Portfolio in which shares are held. Each Portfolio pays its own expenses.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) |
June 30, 2018 (Unaudited) |
The Portfolios currently offer Class II shares at net asset value.
References herein to a Portfolio’s investment in a particular instrument include direct investments and indirect investments through investment companies such as open-end funds (mutual funds), exchange-traded funds and closed-end funds, as applicable.
| 2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Portfolios in preparation of their financial statements. The policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies”.
Securities Valuation – Securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last reported sale price at the close of the regular trading session of the primary exchange on the business day the value is being determined, or in the case of securities listed on NASDAQ at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. In the absence of a sale such securities shall be valued at the mean between the current bid and ask prices on the day of valuation. Futures and future options are valued at the final settle price or, in the absence of a settle price, at the last sale price on the day of valuation. Short-term debt obligations having 60 days or less remaining until maturity, at time of purchase, may be valued at amortized cost to the extent it is determined that amortized cost approximates fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value, as discussed in more detail below.
Valuation of Investment Companies – The Portfolios may invest in one or more portfolios of open-end investment companies (the “underlying fund” or “underlying funds”). Each underlying fund is valued at its respective net asset values as reported by such investment company. Each underlying fund values securities in its portfolio for which market quotations are readily available at their market values (generally the last reported sale price) and all other securities and assets at their fair value based on the methods established by each underlying fund’s board(s) of trustees.
Exchange-Traded Funds – The Portfolios may invest in passive exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). An ETF is a type of index fund that is bought and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF trades like common stock and represents a fixed portfolio of securities designed to track the performance and dividend yield of a particular domestic or foreign market index. A Portfolio may purchase an ETF to temporarily gain exposure to a portion of the U.S. or a foreign market while awaiting an opportunity to purchase securities directly. The risks of owning an ETF generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities it is designed to track, although the lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in it being more volatile than the underlying securities, which may result in a Portfolio paying significantly more or receiving significantly less for ETF shares than the value of the relevant underlying securities. Additionally, an ETF has fees and expenses that increase the cost of investing in the ETF versus the costs of owning the underlying securities directly.
Illiquid Securities – The Portfolios may hold securities, such as private placements, interests in commodity pools, other non-traded securities or temporarily illiquid securities, for which market quotations are not readily available or are determined to be unreliable. These securities will be valued at their fair market value as determined using the valuation procedures approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Board has delegated execution of these procedures to a Fair Value Committee composed of one or more representatives from each of the (i) Trust, (ii) administrator, and (iii) the Adviser and/or Sub-Adviser. The Fair Value Committee may also include the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer and may enlist third party consultants or advisers (such as an accounting firm or fair value pricing specialist) on an as-needed basis to assist in determining a security-specific fair value or valuation method. The Board reviews and approves the execution of this process and the resultant fair value prices at least quarterly to assure the process produces reliable results.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) |

Fair Value Committee and Valuation Process – The Fair Value Committee is composed of one or more representatives from each of the (i) Trust, (ii) administrator, and (iii) Adviser and/or Sub-Adviser. The applicable investments are valued collectively via inputs from each of these groups. For example, fair value determinations are required for the following securities: (i) securities for which market quotations are not readily available on a particular business day (including without limitation securities for which there is a short and temporary lapse in the provision of a price by the regular pricing source); (ii) securities for which, in the opinion of the Adviser or relevant Sub-Adviser, the prices or values available do not represent the fair value of the instrument (factors which may cause the Adviser or Sub-Adviser to make such a judgment include, but are not limited to, the following: the availability of only a bid price or an ask price; the spread between bid and ask prices; the frequency of sales; the thinness of the market; the size of reported trades; and actions of the securities markets or regulators, such as the suspension or limitation of trading); (iii) securities determined to be illiquid; (iv) securities with respect to which an event that will affect the value thereof has occurred (a “significant event”) subsequent to the determination of the closing price reported on the principal exchange on which the securities are traded, but prior to the relevant Portfolio’s calculation of its net asset value (“NAV”); and (v) mutual funds that do not provide timely NAV information. Specifically, interests in commodity pools or managed futures pools are valued on a daily basis by reference to the closing market prices of each futures contract or other asset held by a pool, as adjusted for pool expenses. Restricted or illiquid securities, such as private placements or non-traded securities are valued via inputs from the Adviser or Sub-Adviser valuation based upon the current bid for the security from two or more independent dealers or other parties reasonably familiar with the facts and circumstances of the security (who should take into consideration all relevant factors as may be appropriate under the circumstances). If the Adviser or Sub-Adviser is unable to obtain a current bid from such independent dealers or other independent parties, the fair value team shall determine the fair value of restricted or illiquid securities using the following factors: (i) the type of security; (ii) the cost at date of purchase; (iii) the size and nature of the Portfolio’s holdings; (iv) the discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase and subsequent thereto; (v) information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security; (vi) the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security and the existence of any registration rights, as well as any estimation of the cost of registration or otherwise qualifying the security for public sale, including commissions; (vii) how the yield of the security compares to similar securities of companies of similar or equal creditworthiness; (viii) the level of recent trades of similar or comparable securities; (ix) the liquidity characteristics of the security; (x) current market conditions; (xi) the market value of any securities into which the security is convertible or exchangeable; (xii) the security’s embedded option values; and (xiii) information about the financial condition of the issuer and its prospects.
Each Portfolio utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of all of its investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Portfolio has the ability to access.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument in an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Portfolio’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Security Transactions and Related Income – Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized on securities purchased over the lives of the respective securities. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains or losses from sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) |
June 30, 2018 (Unaudited) |
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders – Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on ex-date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are considered either temporary (e.g., deferred losses, capital loss carryforwards) or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their Federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets, results from operations or net asset values per share of the Portfolios.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents include cash and overnight investments in interest-bearing demand deposits with a financial institution with original maturities of three months or less. The Portfolios maintain deposits with a financial institution which are generally an amount that is in excess of federally insured limits.
Federal Income Tax – It is each Portfolio’s policy to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their taxable income and net realized gains to shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required.
Each Portfolio will recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed each Portfolio’s tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken in each Portfolio’s 2014, 2015, and 2016 tax returns or is expected to be taken in each Portfolio’s 2017 tax returns. Each Portfolio identified its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and foreign jurisdictions where the Portfolios make significant investments; however, the Portfolios are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.
Foreign Currency Translation – The accounting records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, as well as investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates deemed appropriate by the investment adviser. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars on the respective dates of such transactions.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and losses from currency realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between income accrued versus income received. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts – As foreign securities are purchased, a Portfolio may enter into forward currency exchange contracts in order to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risks. A forward involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date, which may be any fixed number of days from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. The market value of the contract fluctuates with changes in currency exchange rates. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. As foreign securities are sold, a portion of the contract is generally closed and the Portfolio records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Realized gains and losses from contract transactions are included as a component of net realized gains/(losses) from forward foreign currency contracts in the statements of operations.
Options Transactions – The Global Atlantic Goldman Sachs Dynamic Trends Allocation Portfolio and Global Atlantic PIMCO Tactical Allocation Portfolio are subject to equity price risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives and may purchase or sell options to help hedge against this risk. A Portfolio may purchase and write (i.e., sell) put and call options. Such options may relate to particular securities or securities indices, including ETFs, and may or may not be listed on a domestic or foreign securities exchange and may or may not be issued by the Options Clearing Corporation. Options trading is a highly specialized activity that entails greater than ordinary investment risk. Options may be more volatile than the underlying instruments, and therefore, on a percentage basis, an investment in options may be subject to greater fluctuation than an investment in the underlying instruments themselves. A call option for a particular security gives the purchaser of the option, in return for a premium, the right to

buy, and the writer (seller) the obligation to sell, the underlying security at the stated exercise price at any time prior to the expiration of the option for American options or only at expiration for European options, regardless of the market price of the security. The premium paid to the writer is in consideration for undertaking the obligation under the option contract. A put option for a particular security gives the purchaser the right to sell the security at the stated exercise price at any time prior to the expiration date of the option for American options or only at expiration for European options, regardless of the market price of the security.
Securities index options are put options and call options on various securities indices. In most respects, they are identical to listed options on common stocks. The primary difference between stock options and index options occurs when index options are exercised. In the case of stock options, the underlying security, common stock, is delivered. However, upon the exercise of an index option, settlement does not occur by delivery of the securities comprising the index. The option holder who exercises the index option receives an amount of cash if the closing level of the securities index upon which the option is based is greater than, in the case of a call, or less than, in the case of a put, the exercise price of the option. This amount of cash is equal to the difference between the closing price of the securities index and the exercise price of the option expressed in dollars times a specified multiple. A securities index fluctuates with changes in the market value of the stocks included in the index.
The Portfolios may purchase and sell options on the same types of futures in which it may invest. Options on futures are similar to options on underlying instruments except that options on futures give the purchaser the right, in return for the premium paid, to assume a position in a futures contract (a long position if the option is a call and a short position if the option is a put), rather than to purchase or sell the futures contract, at a specified exercise price at any time during the period of the option. Upon exercise of the option, the delivery of the futures position by the writer of the option to the holder of the option will be accompanied by the delivery of the accumulated balance in the writer’s futures margin account which represents the amount by which the market price of the futures contract, at exercise, exceeds (in the case of a call) or is less than (in the case of a put) the exercise price of the option on the futures contract. Purchasers of options who fail to exercise their options prior to the exercise date suffer a loss of the premium paid.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the change in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on options contracts written by the Global Atlantic Goldman Sachs Dynamic Trends Allocation Portfolio and the Global Atlantic PIMCO Tactical Allocation Portfolio was $(38,023) and $84, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Global Atlantic Goldman Sachs Dynamic Trends Allocation Portfolio and the Global Atlantic PIMCO Tactical Allocation Portfolio had realized gains/(losses) of $(180,973) and $2,265, respectively, from option contracts written
Futures Contracts – The Portfolios are subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. The Portfolios may sell futures contracts to hedge against market risk, foreign currency exchange rate risks, and to reduce return volatility. Futures are standardized, exchange-traded contracts that provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of a specific financial instrument (e.g., units of a securities index) for a specified price, date, time and place designated at the time the contract is made. Brokerage fees are incurred when a futures contract is bought or sold and initial and variation margin deposits must be maintained. Entering into a contract to buy is commonly referred to as buying or purchasing a contract or holding a long position. Entering into a contract to sell is commonly referred to as selling a contract or holding a short position. The Portfolios may also buy or sell hedge instruments based on one or more market indices in an attempt to maintain the Portfolios’ volatility at a targeted level. Initial margin deposits required upon entering into futures contracts are satisfied by the segregation of specific securities or cash as collateral for the account of the broker (the Portfolio’s agent in acquiring the futures position). During the period the futures contracts are open, changes in the value of the contracts are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by “marking to market” on a daily basis to reflect the market value of the contracts at the end of each day’s trading. Variation margin payments are received or made depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. When the contracts are closed, a Portfolio recognizes a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from, or cost of, the closing transaction and the Portfolio’s basis in the contract. If a Portfolio were unable to liquidate a futures contract and/or enter into an offsetting closing transaction, the Portfolio would continue to be subject to market risk with respect to the value of the contracts and continue to be required to maintain the margin deposits on the futures contracts. Each Portfolio segregates liquid securities having a value at least equal to the amount of the current obligation under any open futures contract. These amounts are disclosed on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Deposits with Brokers when applicable. Risks may exceed amounts recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. With futures, there is minimal

counterparty credit risk to a Portfolio since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, realized gains/(losses) and the change in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on futures contracts, as disclosed in the Statements of Operations, is as follows:

Swap Agreements – The Global Atlantic Franklin Dividend and Income Managed Risk Portfolio and the Global Atlantic PIMCO Tactical Allocation Portfolio are subject to equity price risk and/or interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. The Portfolios may enter into various swap transactions for investment purposes or to manage interest rate, equity, foreign exchange (currency), or credit risk. These are two-party contracts entered into primarily to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of returns) earned or realized on particular pre-determined investments or instruments. In a standard over-the-counter (“OTC”) swap, two parties agree to exchange the returns, differentials in rates of return or some other amount earned or realized on the “notional amount” (i.e., the return or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested in a “basket” of securities, representing a particular index or industry sectors) of predetermined investments or instruments.
Certain Portfolios may enter into credit default swaps (“CDS”). CDS are two-party contracts that transfer credit exposure between the parties. One party (the “buyer”) receives credit protection and the other party (the “seller”) takes on credit risk. The buyer typically makes predetermined periodic payments to the seller in exchange for the seller’s commitment to purchase the underlying reference obligation if a defined credit event occurs, such as a default, bankruptcy or failure to pay interest or principal on a reference debt instrument, with respect to a specified issuer or one of the reference issuers in a CDS portfolio. If the defined credit event occurs, the seller must pay the agreed-upon value of a reference obligation to the counterparty or perform pursuant to the agreement. The buyer must then surrender the reference obligation to the seller. As a seller of credit protection in a CDS, a Portfolio would be liable for the notional amount of the swap.
The swaps in which a Portfolio may invest may be centrally-cleared or bi-laterally traded. The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties are calculated with respect to a notional amount. Changes in the value of swap agreements are recognized as unrealized gains or losses in the Statement of Operations by “marking to market” on a daily basis to reflect the value of the swap agreement at the end of each trading day. Payments received or paid at the beginning of a swap agreement are reflected as such on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and may be referred to as upfront payments. A Portfolio amortizes upfront payments and/or accrues for the fixed payment stream on swap agreements on a daily basis with the net amount recorded as a component of unrealized gain or loss on the Statement of Operations. Realized gains and losses from the decrease in notional value of the swap are recognized on trade date. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap agreement is recorded as a realized gain or loss on the Statement of Operations. A Portfolio segregates cash or liquid securities having a value at least equal to the amount of its current obligation under any swap transaction. Swap agreements involve, to varying degrees, lack of liquidity and elements of credit, market and counterparty risk in excess of amounts recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Each Portfolio’s maximum risk of loss from the counterparty credit risk is the discounted net value of the cash flow to be received from the counterparty over the contract’s remaining life, to be the extent that amount is positive.
Swaps may involve greater risks than direct investments in securities because swaps may be leveraged and, when traded in the OTC markets, are subject to counterparty risk, credit risk and pricing risk, each of which individually and collectively, may have a considerable impact on the performance of a Portfolio. CDS in particular may involve greater risks than investing in a referenced instrument directly. Swaps, especially those that are not exchange-traded, may also be considered illiquid.
Global Atlantic Portfolios |

June 30, 2018 (Unaudited) |
It may not be possible for a Portfolio to liquidate a swap position at an advantageous time or price, which may result in significant losses. Although central clearing and exchange-trading of swaps may decrease counterparty risk and increase market liquidity, exchange-trading and clearing does not make the contracts risk free, but rather, the primary credit risk on such contracts is the creditworthiness of the clearing broker or the clearinghouse.
The Portfolios use cash and certain securities as collateral to swap agreements as indicated on the Portfolio of Investments and Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such collateral is held for the benefit of the counterparty in a segregated account to prevent non-payment by the Portfolios. If the counterparty defaults, a Portfolio may seek return of this collateral and incur certain costs exercising their rights to the collateral.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the change in unrealized depreciation on swap contracts for the Global Atlantic Franklin Dividend and Income Managed Risk Portfolio and the Global Atlantic PIMCO Tactical Allocation Portfolio was $(29,341) and $(89,382), respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Global Atlantic Franklin Dividend and Income Managed Risk Portfolio and the Global Atlantic PIMCO Tactical Allocation Portfolio had realized gains of $34,814 and $259,850, respectively, from swap contracts.
A Portfolio may make short sales of securities: (i) to offset potential declines in long positions in similar securities; (ii) to increase the flexibility of the Portfolio; (iii) for investment return, (iv) as part of a risk arbitrage strategy; and (v) as part of its overall portfolio management strategies involving the use of derivative instruments. A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells a security it does not own or have the right to acquire (or that it owns but does not wish to deliver) in anticipation that the market price of that security will decline.
When a Portfolio makes a short sale, the broker-dealer through which the short sale is made must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the party purchasing the security. The Portfolio is required to make a margin deposit in connection with such short sales; the Portfolio may have to pay a fee to borrow particular securities and will often be obligated to pay over any dividends and accrued interest on borrowed securities.
If the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short sale and the time a Portfolio covers its short position, the Portfolio will incur a loss; conversely, if the price declines, the Portfolio will realize a capital gain. Any gain will be decreased, and any loss increased, by the transaction costs described above. The successful use of short selling may be adversely affected by imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the security sold short and the securities being hedged.
To the extent a Portfolio sells securities short, it will provide collateral to the broker-dealer and (except in the case of short sales “against the box”) will maintain additional asset coverage in the form of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid securities with its custodian in a segregated account in an amount at least equal to the difference between the current market value of the securities sold short and any amounts required to be deposited as collateral with the selling broker (not including the proceeds of the short sale). A Portfolio does not intend to enter into short sales (other than short sales “against the box”) if immediately after such sales the aggregate of the value of all collateral plus the amount in such segregated account exceeds 10% of the value of the Portfolio’s net assets. This percentage may be varied by action of the Board of Trustees. A short sale is “against the box” to the extent a Portfolio contemporaneously owns, or has the right to obtain at no added cost, securities identical to those sold short.

The notional value of the derivative instruments outstanding as of June 30, 2018, as disclosed in the Portfolios of Investments, and the amounts of realized and changes in unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments during the period as disclosed above and within in the Statements of Operations serve as indicators of the volume of derivative activity for the Portfolios.
Short Sales – A Portfolio may make short sales of securities: (i) to offset potential declines in long positions in similar securities; (ii) to increase the flexibility of the Portfolio; (iii) for investment return; (iv) as part of a risk arbitrage strategy; and (v) as part of its overall portfolio management strategies involving the use of derivative instruments. A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells a security it does not own or have the right to acquire (or that it owns but does not wish to deliver) in anticipation that the market price of that security will decline.
When a Portfolio makes a short sale, the broker-dealer through which the short sale is made must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the party purchasing the security. The Portfolio is required to make a margin deposit in connection with such short sales; the Portfolio may have to pay a fee to borrow particular securities and will often be obligated to pay over any dividends and accrued interest on borrowed securities.
If the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short sale and the time a Portfolio covers its short position, the Portfolio will incur a loss; conversely, if the price declines, the Portfolio will realize a capital gain. Any gain will be decreased, and any loss increased, by the transaction costs described above. The successful use of short selling may be adversely affected by imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the security sold short and the securities being hedged.
To the extent a Portfolio sells securities short, it will provide collateral to the broker-dealer and (except in the case of short sales “against the box”) will maintain additional asset coverage in the form of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid securities with its custodian in a segregated account in an amount at least equal to the difference between the current market value of the securities sold short and any amounts required to be deposited as collateral with the selling

broker (not including the proceeds of the short sale). A Portfolio does not intend to enter into short sales (other than short sales “against the box”) if immediately after such sales the aggregate of the value of all collateral plus the amount in such segregated account exceeds 10% of the value of the Portfolio’s net assets. This percentage may be varied by action of the Board of Trustees. A short sale is “against the box” to the extent a Portfolio contemporaneously owns, or has the right to obtain at no added cost, securities identical to those sold short.
When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery Transactions – The Portfolios may engage in when-issued or delayed-delivery transactions. The Portfolios record when-issued securities on the trade date and maintain security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.
Real Estate Investment Trusts – Certain Portfolios may invest in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). REITs are pooled investment vehicles that own, and typically operate, income-producing real estate. If a REIT meets certain requirements, including distributing to shareholders substantially all of its taxable income (other than net capital gains), then it is not taxed on the income distributed to shareholders. REITs are subject to management fees and other expenses, and so a Portfolio that invests in REITs will bear its proportionate share of the costs of the REITs’ operations. Along with the risks common to different types of real estate-related securities, such as loss to casualty or condemnation, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, zoning law amendments, changes in interest rates, overbuilding and increased competition, variations in market value, and possible environmental liabilities, REITs involve additional risk factors. These include poor performance by the REIT’s manager, changes to the tax laws, and failure by the REIT to qualify for tax free distribution of income or exemption under the 1940 Act. In addition, REITs are not diversified and are heavily dependent on cash flow.
Distributions from a Portfolio’s investments in REITs may be characterized as ordinary income, a net capital gain or a return of capital. The Portfolios record distributions that represent a net capital gain as a realized gain and distributions that represent a return of capital as a reduction of the cost of investment. REITs report information on the source of their distributions annually in the following calendar year. As a result, a Portfolio estimates the source of REIT distributions for accounting purposes and then makes adjustments when the actual source information is reported by the REIT. These estimates are based on the most recent REIT distribution information available.
Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions – A mortgage dollar roll transaction involves a sale by a Portfolio of mortgage related securities that it holds with an agreement by the Portfolios to repurchase similar securities at an agreed upon price and date. The securities purchased will bear the same interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories than those securities sold. The Portfolios account for mortgage dollar rolls as purchases and sales transactions.
Credit Risk – There is a risk that security issuers will not make interest and/or principal payments on their securities. In addition, the credit quality of securities may be lowered if an issuer’s financial condition changes. Lower credit quality will lead to greater volatility in the price of a security and in shares of a Portfolio or an underlying fund. Lower credit quality also will affect liquidity and make it difficult to sell the security. This means that, compared to issuers of higher rated securities, issuers of lower rated securities are less likely to have the capacity to pay interest and repay principal when due in the event of adverse business, financial or economic conditions and/or may be in default or not current in the payment of interest or principal. Default, or the market’s perception that an issuer is likely to default, tends to reduce the value and liquidity of fixed income securities, thereby reducing the value of your investment in Portfolio shares. In addition, default may cause a Portfolio to directly or indirectly incur expenses in seeking recovery of principal or interest.
A Portfolio could lose money on a debt security if an issuer or borrower is unable or fails to meet its obligations, including failing to make interest payments and/or to repay principal when due. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength, the market’s perception of the issuer’s financial strength or in a security’s credit rating, which reflects a third party’s assessment of the credit risk presented by a particular issuer, may affect debt securities’ value. A Portfolio may incur substantial losses on debt securities that are inaccurately perceived to present a different amount of credit risk by the market, the Adviser, Sub-Adviser and/or Underlying Fund manager, as applicable, or the rating agencies than such securities actually do.

Derivatives Risk – The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with investments in more traditional securities and instruments. The use of derivatives may increase costs, reduce a Portfolio’s returns and/or increase volatility. Volatility is defined as the characteristic of a security, an index or a market to fluctuate significantly in price within a short time period. Many types of derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligation. A risk of a Portfolio’s use of derivatives is that the fluctuations in their values may not correlate perfectly with, and may be more sensitive to market events than, the overall securities markets. The possible lack of a liquid secondary market for derivatives and the resulting inability to sell or otherwise close-out a derivatives position at an advantageous time or price could expose a Portfolio to losses and could make derivatives more difficult to value accurately. Derivatives typically give rise to a form of leverage and may expose a Portfolio to greater risk and increase its costs. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and related regulatory developments require the clearing and exchange-trading of many standardized over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivative instruments deemed to be “swaps.” The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) has implemented mandatory exchange-trading and clearing requirements under the Dodd-Frank Act and the CFTC continues to approve contracts for central clearing. Uncleared swaps are subject to margin requirements that are being implemented on a phase-in basis. The regulation of the derivatives markets has increased over the past several years, and there can be no assurance that any new governmental regulation will not adversely affect a Portfolio’s ability to achieve its investment result.
Market Risk – The market prices of securities may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions, inflation, changes in interest rates or currency rates, limited dealer capacity, lack of liquidity in the markets or adverse investor sentiment. Each Portfolio has exposure to instruments that may be more volatile and carry more risk than some other forms of investment. Adverse market conditions may be prolonged and may not have the same impact on all types of securities. Market prices of securities also may go down due to events or conditions that affect particular sectors, industries or issuers. When market prices fall, the value of your investment will go down.
A Portfolio may experience a substantial or complete loss on any individual security. Since the global financial crisis that began in 2008, the U.S. and many foreign economies continue to experience its after-effects, which have resulted, and may continue to result, in slower growth and an unusually high degree of volatility in the financial markets, both domestic and foreign. In response to the financial crisis, the U.S. government and the Federal Reserve, as well as certain foreign governments and their central banks have taken steps to support financial markets, including by keeping interest rates at historically low levels. The Federal Reserve has since reduced its market support activities and has recently started raising interest rates. Further reduction or withdrawal of Federal Reserve or other U.S. or non-U.S. governmental support could negatively affect the markets generally and increase market volatility. These and other changes in market conditions could reduce the value and liquidity of the securities in which a Portfolio invests. This environment could make identifying investment risks and opportunities especially difficult.
Policy and legislative changes in the U.S. and abroad affect many aspects of financial regulation and may, in some cases, contribute to decreased liquidity and increased volatility in the financial markets. Economies and financial markets around the world are becoming increasingly interconnected. As a result, whether or not a Portfolio has exposure to securities of issuers located in or with significant exposure to countries experiencing economic and financial difficulties, the value and liquidity of the Portfolio’s investments may be negatively affected.
In addition, market prices of securities in broad market segments may be adversely affected by a prominent issuer having experienced losses or by the lack of earnings or such an issuer’s failure to meet the market’s expectations with respect to new products or services, or even by factors wholly unrelated to the value or condition of the issuer, such as changes in interest rates. An increase in interest rates or other adverse conditions (e.g., inflation/deflation, increased selling of fixed-income investments across other pooled investment vehicles or accounts, changes in investor perception or changes in government intervention in the markets) may lead to increased redemptions and increased portfolio turnover, which could reduce liquidity for certain Portfolio investments, adversely affect values of portfolio holdings and increase a Portfolio’s costs. If dealer capacity in fixed-income markets is insufficient for market conditions, this has the potential to further inhibit liquidity and increase volatility in the fixed-income markets.
Expenses – Expenses of the Trust that are directly identifiable to a specific Portfolio are charged to that Portfolio. Expenses, which are not readily identifiable to a specific Portfolio, are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable,

taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative sizes of the Portfolios in the Trust.
Indemnification – The Trust indemnifies its officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolios enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. Each Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolios that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolios expect the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be remote.

With respect to each Portfolio, the Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its fees and to reimburse expenses, at least until the expiration dates listed below, to ensure that total annual portfolio operating expenses after fee waiver and/or reimbursement (exclusive of any front-end or contingent deferred loads, brokerage fees and commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short), taxes and extraordinary expenses, such as litigation) will not exceed the average daily net asset percentages attributable to the Portfolio’s shares listed below (“Waiver Agreement”). The expense reimbursement is subject to possible recoupment from the Portfolio in future years on a rolling three year basis (within the three years after the fees have been waived or reimbursed) if such recoupment can be achieved within the lesser of the expense limits listed below and any expense limits applicable at the time of recoupment. The agreements may be terminated only by the Portfolio’s Board of Trustees, on 60 days’ written notice to the Adviser.

In addition, the Adviser has agreed to waive 0.40% of its fees for Global Atlantic American Funds® Managed Risk Portfolio, Global Atlantic BlackRock Global Allocation Managed Risk Portfolio, and Global Atlantic Select Advisor Managed Risk Portfolio for as long as each Portfolio relies primarily on investments in underlying funds to achieve its principal investment strategy. This waiver is not subject to recoupment.
The Adviser or its affiliates may receive compensation from managers of underlying funds in which certain Portfolios invest. This compensation may create a conflict of interest for the Adviser in the selection of underlying funds for investment by the Portfolio. However, the Adviser will voluntarily reduce the amount of its compensation under its Advisory Agreement with the Portfolio by the amount of compensation received from managers of underlying funds. The minimum amount of this waiver, until at least April 30, 2019, for each Portfolio, is based on estimated amounts expected to be received during the current fiscal year. If a reasonable estimate cannot be made, the minimum may be set at 0.00%. The

If the Adviser waives any fee or reimburses any expense pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, and the Portfolio’s operating expenses are subsequently less than the expense limitation, the Adviser shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Portfolio for such waived fees or reimbursed expenses provided that such reimbursement does not cause the Portfolio’s expenses to exceed the amount of the expense limitation. If Portfolio operating expenses subsequently exceed the expense limitation, the reimbursements shall be suspended.

The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation), undistributed ordinary income (loss) and accumulated net realized gain (loss) from investments is primarily attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, adjustments for real estate investment trusts, return of capital distributions from C-Corporations and the mark-to-market on passive foreign investment companies, open 1256 options and futures contracts, forward foreign currency contracts and swaps. The unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the table above includes unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) of $(1,479), $(6,076), $(39,654), and $154 for Global Atlantic Goldman Sachs Dynamic Trends Allocation Portfolio, Global Atlantic PIMCO Tactical Allocation Portfolio, Global Atlantic Franklin Dividend and Income Managed Risk, and Global Atlantic Wellington Research Managed Risk Portfolio, respectively.

Subsequent events after the date of the statements of assets and liabilities have been evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued. Management has concluded that no events or transactions occurred requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

EXPENSE EXAMPLES
June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Portfolios, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in each Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 1, 2018 through June 30, 2018.
Actual Expenses
The “Actual” expenses set of columns in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The “Hypothetical” expenses set of columns in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balances or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare this 5% hypothetical example for a specific Portfolio with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), or redemption fees or other expenses charged by your insurance contract or separate account. Therefore, the Hypothetical columns of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
