Dear Fellow Shareholders:
Knights of Columbus Asset Advisors, LLC is pleased to present this annual report for Knights of Columbus Funds for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2022. The markets and the economy moved from a heavy focus on Covid to a renewed focus on inflation. I recently found the text of a speech I gave in 2012 and commented that the Fed was aggressively creating liquidity to avoid a deflationary environment. The last major bout of inflation in the United States occurred in the early 1980s when former Fed Chair Paul Volcker raised the Federal Funds Rate to over 20% to choke off energy-led inflationary effects from the late 1970s. I have often commented that the cure for inflation is well known and highly effective, albeit, quite painful. The antidote for deflation is not known and we watched Japan battle deflation for decades. While one cannot completely induce spending, one can put the brakes on excess inflation by driving the cost of money so high that a recessionary environment cancels both growth and inflation. The tremendous stimulus, some may argue excessive stimulus, kept the economy afloat during the early days of Covid. However, the continuous rounds of stimulus and low-interest rates served as the tinder to control the high inflation we have been experiencing. Today (November 10, 2022), the CPI was released, and the headline annual inflation number was 50 basis points below last month’s inflation reading and the bond and stock markets rallied. There is much to do, but we may have put a cap on inflation. A continuing concern is that an attempt to quickly shift to renewable energy has caused energy prices to rise substantially over the last year and this issue is not solved. We believe this will be a headwind for the economy and the capital markets as we continue into 2023.
Over the trailing twelve months, the equity markets saw strong results with the Russell 1000® Growth Index returning -24.6%, the Russell 1000® Value Index returning -7.0%, the Russell 2000® Index returning -18.5%, and the FTSE All-World ex-U.S. Index returning -24.0%. The bond market has been very weak due to rising rates and widening spreads in the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index returned -15.7%, representing core fixed income results, and the Bloomberg 1-3 Year US Government/Credit Index returned -4.9%, representing short-duration fixed income.
During the twelve months that ended October 31, 2021, the stock market was concerned that inflation and rising rates caused the cost of capital to rise, and this was much more of a hit to growth stocks versus their value counterparts. The concerns of a recession also hurt consumer sentiment, and this served as a headwind for growth stocks. The Fed has aggressively increased the Fed Funds rate with four hikes of 75 basis points. Inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index, finished October up 7.7% for the trailing twelve months. When factoring out food and energy, inflation still rose 6.3%. During the last twelve months, the 10-Year Treasury peaked at 4.24% on October 24, 2022, hit a low of 1.35% on December 3, 2021, and ended the fiscal year at 4.05%.
Through the end of the third quarter of 2021, Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) rose by 2.6% on a year-over-year basis (or more specifically from third quarter 2021 results). With inflation and wages rising, a shortage of workers, and continued kinks in the supply chain, investors were correctly concerned that long-dormant inflation would be back. The Fed initially espoused that inflation would be transitory, but, at KoCAA, we believed some structural issues would extend the inflation story. Other key economic indicators, such as Industrial Production, Capacity Utilization, and Durable Goods Orders are still showing signs of strength. Labor costs, supply chain issues, and energy costs are having a larger impact on the economy.
Unemployment is very low by historic standards and stood at 3.7% in October 2022. The gauge of underemployment stood at 6.8% and we continue to see strong wage growth, albeit a bit more modest than we saw in the summer. Labor costs remain a significant expense and many businesses report that it is very hard to find the right employees. The employment picture will need to brighten for stronger economic recovery.
The current political rancor, in our view, is certainly concerning as it feels as though U.S. politics is a zero-sum game with the compromise being a very foreign concept. While the final election results are not in, it appears that we will have a Republican Congress and a likely split Senate. This will make for a very slow legislative period for President Biden’s last two years in his first term.
KoCAA is very thankful for our shareholder base which continues to grow, and our fund family remains above $1 billion in total assets as strong inflows have offset market weakness. We look forward to an even more successful fiscal year in 2023, particularly as KoCAA has launched an Investment Advisor Representative (“IAR”) program that features the Knights of Columbus Funds. The nine proprietary funds included in the IAR program currently represent the broadest array of Catholic funds offered by any single provider. We are proud of what we have built and continue to work hard for our shareholders every day.
As always, we appreciate your confidence in our team and look forward to serving you in the future.
Sincerely,
Anthony V. Minopoli
President & Chief Investment Officer

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE (Unaudited)
Knights of Columbus Limited Duration Fund
The Bloomberg 1-3 Year US Government/Credit Index (USD) returned -4.88% for the year ended October 31, 2022. Most sectors underperformed as investors shied away from risk while the Federal Reserve (Fed) increased rates. Financials were the worst-performing sector in the Index.
The Knights of Columbus Limited Duration Fund I Shares returned –4.94% for the year, slightly lagging the benchmark. The primary driver of the portfolio underperformance for the year ended October 31, 2022, was our continued overweight allocation to spread product. Within our allocations, the largest contributors to the poor performance were the fund’s overweight to the Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed Securities sectors. This was the result of rising interest rates, which lengthened durations on mortgage securities, and a reduction in risk sentiment which induced wider spreads for asset-backed securities. Providing some offset to this was the fund’s overweight allocation to the Financials sector, which outperformed the index’s Financials return.
The Fed has been focused on beating back inflation, which accelerated to a peak rate of 9.1% annual increase in June and now stands at 7.7% compared to 6.2% a year ago. This, combined with a tight labor market, caused them to aggressively raise interest rates this year as they followed the initial 25 basis point (bps) hike in March with a 50 bps increase in May then four 75 bps moves higher to bring the Federal Funds rate to 4%. We expect the Fed to moderate rate increases as we approach the level needed to bring inflation back to its 2% long-term target. However, that rate will be determined by the pace at which policy rates flow through to the economy. This fine-tuning is likely to combine with continued headwinds from geopolitical developments and keep volatility elevated. We believe caution is warranted in this environment and issue selection will be key.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE (Unaudited)
Knights of Columbus Core Bond Fund
The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned -15.68% for the year ended October 31, 2022. All sectors underperformed as investors shied away from risk while the Federal Reserve (Fed) increased rates. Utilities, Financials, and Mortgage-backed Securities (MBS) were the worst-performing sectors in the Index.
The Knights of Columbus Core Bond Fund I Shares returned -16.68% for the year, lagging the benchmark. The primary driver of the portfolio underperformance for the year ended October 31, 2022, was our continued overweight allocation to spread product. Within our allocations, the largest contributor to the poor performance was the fund’s overweight to the Financial sector. This was the result of the inversion of the yield curve as spreads between 2-year Treasuries and 10-year Treasuries went from +106 basis points (bps) to -43 bps as short rates rose faster than long rates. This sector was especially hard hit due to the fund’s positions in longer bank issues. Providing some offset to this was the fund’s underweight allocation to the MBS sector.
The Fed has been focused on beating back inflation, which accelerated to a peak rate of 9.1% annual increase in June and now stands at 7.7% compared to 6.2% a year ago. This, combined with a tight labor market, caused them to aggressively raise interest rates this year as they followed the initial 25 basis point (bps) hike in March with a 50 bps increase in May then four 75 bps moves higher to bring the Federal Funds rate to 4%.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE (Unaudited)
Knights of Columbus Long/Short Equity Fund
The benchmark HFRX Equity Market Neutral Index rose 0.01% from October 29, 2021, through October 31, 2022. The Knights of Columbus Long/Short Equity Fund rose 17.55% on a net basis over the same period.
The last 12 months witnessed three significant macroeconomic shocks that rattled markets and led to an environment of significant uncertainty: Inflation reaching levels not seen in 40 years; The Federal Reserve enacting significant interest rate increases; Russia-Ukraine war amplified inflationary trends and fears.
These shocks had a significant negative effect on both equity and bond markets. The S&P 500 declined -14.63% in the 12 months. Bond markets, which have benefitted from 40 years of declining interest rates, also declined sharply. The Markit iBoxx USD Liquid Investment Grade Index declined -22.04% during the same period.
Though many may claim they can predict the future, the data suggests they cannot. We are skeptical of pundits and have no idea how the future will unfold. Less than 18 months ago, the conventional and very popular opinion among prognosticators, managers, and most market participants was that “this time it is different” and inflation has been suppressed forever. Low-interest rates were taken for granted allowing firms to adopt debt-driven and money-losing business models and governments to spend their way out of the 2008 recession and the 2020 COVID crisis. Fast forward to today and the world is scrambling to undo the excesses of the last decade.
No matter the short-term political and economic outcome, what we do know is that the global order is irrevocably changing. Offshoring is a thing of the past with reshoring, nearshoring and friend shoring becoming the new corporate supply chain mantra with economic nationalism amplifying these trends. But with these changes come higher costs and inflation.
Modern monetary theory, which was gaining significant traction in the last decade, is now dead. There are consequences to indiscriminate spending. Legendary investor Jean-Marie Eveillard once quipped “If printing money could solve all our problems, we can be sure they would have figured that out already.” 1 Statements like this are self-evident in our view.
Some of our long positions are pricing in the certain collapse of the global economy and the end of globalization. In contrast, our shorts price in an almost certain resumption of Fed rate cuts returning markets to a speculative mode and unrestrained globalization. In our view, this pricing structure is unsustainable regardless of how events unfold.
The rising inflation and the resulting increase in interest rates have led to a shift from “cash is trash” to cash is now a good asset class. We have always believed that cash is a useful asset class. Our reasoning for that belief, however, is different from the newly popular “wisdom.” In our view, the benefit of holding cash in periods when others considered it “trash” was to keep dry powder for when frothy markets inevitably subsided.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE (Unaudited)
Knights of Columbus Large Cap Value Fund
The Russell 1000® Value Index fell -7.00% for the year ended October 31, 2022. The index peaked in January and has been sliding lower since. Four sectors had positive returns, with Energy being the clear winner finishing higher by 64.9% followed by Consumer Staples, higher by 5.2%. Seven sectors had negative returns with Communication Services and Information Technology the weakest, falling -30.4% and -23.1%, respectively.
The Knights of Columbus Large Cap Value Fund I Shares returned -6.73% during this time frame. The Financials sector helped performance, with most of it coming from the Banks industry group. First Horizon Corp. (+48.2%, 1.7% Avg. Wgt.) rose 48.2%. It was announced that TD Bank will buy First Horizon for a 37% premium of $13.4B in cash. Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (+4.0%, 1.9%) performed well on the back of the Advice and Wealth Management segment. The segment exhibited growing earnings, expanding margins, and strong net interest income.
The Health Care sector detracted from value due to stock selection. Catalent, Inc. (-49.2%, 1.2%) finished down -49.2%. The company has faced pressure from the slowdown in its COVID business as well as macroeconomic headwinds. They recently cut their FY2023 revenue and EBITDA guidance. Exact Sciences Corp. (-63.4%, 0.8%) also detracted value. The stock sold off with many other growth stocks as interest rates continue to march higher. Further, there is a risk that one of Exact Sciences’ competitors will successfully develop a more convenient, blood-based colorectal cancer screening test.
The macroeconomic environment continues to drive movement and volatility in markets. Specific attention remains on central bank policy and rising interest rates as regulators try to tamp down inflation. Adding to the uncertainty are increasing geopolitical tensions, with the Russia/Ukraine war and U.S.-China relations as current hot spots. Given the continued existence of these concerns, we expect to maintain our defensive approach to portfolio construction for the time being. Our focus remains on risk control and stock selection emphasizing companies with stable cash flows, strong balance sheets, and the ability to ride out a turbulent and uncertain economic landscape.

The Russell 1000® Growth Index returned -24.60% for the twelve months ending October 31, 2022, concluding the post-COVID bull market. The market peaked in mid-November 2021 with the sell-off accelerating throughout 2022 as it became clear the Fed intended to tighten monetary policy in an effort to fight soaring inflation. Sector leadership was broad, with just two sectors underperforming; however, the magnitude of the declines and the size of the sectors within the benchmarks (37% collectively) combined to account for nearly 50% of the total benchmark’s decline. Three sectors produced positive returns for the period. Energy (+61.6%) was the top gainer as significant supply/demand imbalances drove prices of fossil fuels higher. Consumer Staples (+2.9%) and Utilities (+2.4%) also gained as investors rotated into defensive holdings. Communication Services (-47.0%) and Consumer Discretionary (-33.1%) led to the declines as investors rotated away from advertising and consumer-spending sensitive companies.
The Knights of Columbus Large Cap Growth Fund I Shares underperformed the benchmark index by -3.76% for the year ending October 31, 2022, with the Fund returning -28.36%. Allocation and selection both hurt returns, though a higher-than-average cash balance helped. The largest detractor was stock selection within Health Care (-35.9%), led by Health Care Equipment & Services. Supply chain issues and China’s zero-COVID policy hurt Align Technologies while Contract Research Organization Syneos Health, Inc. dropped after the company cut forward guidance on weaker-than-expected new business awards. On the positive side, stock selection in Consumer Discretionary (-28.9%) helped performance. Health & beauty retailer Ulta Beauty generated positive returns as the company benefitted from post-COVID pent-up demand as daily activity normalized. Additionally, the USCCB restriction on Amazon, Inc. helped performance as the impact of the company’s decline was magnified due to its 6.1% average weight in the index.
We continue to see the macro environment as highly unsettled, with a bias towards weaker economic and profit growth as global central banks continue to fight inflation, energy markets remain unbalanced, food prices remain elevated and discontent in Europe continues. As such, we expect to maintain a defensive posture, though recognize the potential for another rally on a technical bounce, a “pivot” to less-restrictive monetary policy, or a change in the current geopolitical environment.

Knights of Columbus Small Cap Fund
The Russell 2000® Index returned -18.54% for the twelve months ending October 31, 2022, concluding the post-COVID bull market. The market peaked in mid-November 2021 with the sell-off accelerating throughout 2022 as it became clear the Fed intended to tighten monetary policy in an effort to fight soaring inflation. Sector leadership was mixed, with six sectors outperforming and five underperforming. Two sectors produced positive returns for the period. Energy (+43.3%) was the top gainer as significant supply/demand imbalances drove prices of fossil fuels higher, while Utilities (+3.7%) also gained as investors rotated into defensive holdings. Communication Services (-41.05%) and Health Care (-31.3%) led the declines as investors rotated away from advertising-spending sensitive companies and biotechnology shares.
The Knights of Columbus Small Cap Fund I Shares slightly underperformed the benchmark index by -0.05% for the year ending October 31, 2022, with the Fund returning -18.59%. Allocation decisions, including a higher-than-average cash balance, helped while selection hurt returns. Overall, the portfolio outperformed in seven of eleven sectors. The largest contributor was stock selection within, and an overweight too, Consumer Staples (+16.9%). Three of five holdings produced positive returns, led by distillery MGP Ingredients and wholesale membership club BJs Wholesale. On the negative side, stock selection in Information Technology (-41.2%) detracted the most from performance, with negative attribution mostly centered in Software & Services. Growth-oriented software firms LivePerson, DigitalOcean, and Rapid7 all declined as investors rotated away from high-growth, high-valuation companies.
We continue to see the macro environment as highly unsettled, with a bias towards weaker economic and profit growth as global central banks continue to fight inflation, energy markets remain unbalanced, food prices remain elevated and discontent in Europe continues. As such, we expect to maintain a defensive posture, though recognize the potential for another rally on a technical bounce, a “pivot” to less-restrictive monetary policy, or a change in the current geopolitical environment.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FUND PERFORMANCE (Unaudited)
Knights of Columbus Real Estate Fund
U.S. Real estate stocks posted a loss for the period between November 1, 2021 and October 31, 2022, with macroeconomic uncertainty exacerbated by geopolitical tension driving a sell-off in risk assets, including listed real estate shares. The FTSE Nareit Equity REITs Index (the “Index”) had a total return of -18.51%, while the Knights of Columbus Real Estate Fund (the “Fund”) generated a total net return of -15.77%, outperforming the Index by 274 basis points.
During the year, despite continued strong industry fundamentals, the REIT market was weighed down by exogenous factors, including:
• | Elevated inflation and its potential impact on consumer confidence and the economy; |
• | Concerns over the pace/timing of stimulus withdrawal and rate hikes by the U.S. Fed; |
• | Geopolitical stress driven by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine; and |
• | Covid lockdowns in China exacerbating existing supply chain disruptions |
A historical review of listed real estate returns during periods of rising inflation serves as a reminder that real estate values tend to increase with inflation, as rising inflation is typically an indicator of a growing economy – the most important driver of demand for most property types. Additionally, commercial real estate leases often incorporate annual rent escalators, helping to provide additional protection of real estate cash flows during inflationary periods.
Capital markets were also impacted during the period by the continued Russia-Ukraine conflict and the resulting impact on commodity prices and the global supply chain. Higher energy prices, may reduce consumer spending and negatively impact sectors exposed to discretionary spending.
The Fund’s stock selection in the Timber sector was a contributor to relative returns vs. the benchmark. The Fund also benefited from its stock selection in the Office, The Fund’s stock selection in the Lodging, Diversified, Industrial, and certain Specialty sectors were detractors to relative returns. We believe that the sell-off in Specialty property types with strong fundamentals, such as Data Centers and Cell Towers, has presented deep value investment opportunities for the Fund.
Despite the macroeconomic and geopolitical headlines, our outlook for the real estate industry continues to be constructive. Real estate fundamentals and earnings growth remain strong amidst an environment characterized by low supply in many sectors, paired with high construction costs. These factors, along with commercial real estate’s demonstrated performance as an effective hedge against high inflation, bode well for the outlook for owners of high-quality, income-producing, well-located real estate.
Our high conviction, benchmark-agnostic investment approach allows us to maintain a laser-focus on identifying and owning only the highest-quality companies in our investable universe. We have high conviction in our fundamental research and confidence in
the management teams of the companies we own. While capital markets continue to experience transitory periods of market fixation on non-fundamental factors, we believe our portfolio is well-positioned as investor attention turns back to fundamentals.

Knights of Columbus International Equity Fund
The FTSE All-World ex US Index declined -23.96% for the year ended October 31, 2022, joining most global equity indices that fell in response to rising interest rates, weakening economies, and high inflation. Only one sector had a positive return, with Energy rising 5.4% after benefitting from higher prices due to the Ukraine invasion. Four sectors fell more than 30%, including Real Estate, Consumer Discretionary, Communication Services, and Information Technology. Latin America was the best, and only positive, region, climbing 14.8%. Emerging Asia was the weakest, falling -33.0%, driven by its largest country, China.
The Knights of Columbus International Equity Fund I Shares returned -26.80% over the same time frame. The Information Technology sector experienced the best stock selection. This was the worst-returning sector overall, so success involved avoiding the worst names, like Shopify Inc., which fell -76.5%. There were also good holdings, like Edenred, a French payments company, that rose 16.0%. Energy was also a positive sector for selection and was the opposite corollary to Technology – it was the best-returning sector and winning involved picking very strong names. This included Canadian Natural Resources, up 51.3%, and Equinor ASA, the Norwegian firm that rose 50.0% by being the largest seller of natural gas to Europe.
Consumer Staples was the worst sector for stock selection. Sainsbury PLC, a UK grocer, fell -37.0%. L’Oreal, the French cosmetics firm, was also weak, falling -30.2%, as companies with high valuations fell in response to rising interest rates. Communication Services was also poor. Traditional telecommunications companies are more defensive and held up much better, but companies in the media and entertainment group doing business in China were hit hard. Baidu Inc., down -50.6%, and Netease Inc., down -44.0%, were both hurt by a confluence of factors in China, including a government crackdown on internet companies, the zero-Covid policy, and a weakening economy.
For most of the time period, returns were driven by factors that had not been in place, either at all or to the same degree, during the preceding years, including rising inflation and interest rates as well as influences due to the war in Ukraine. This led to a very different investing environment, or regime, and required some repositioning in the portfolio. We expect low and volatile returns to continue in the near term as much of the world deals additionally with declining economic activity. While we always seek to select the best companies for our portfolio, whatever is best will vary by regime, so the holdings will have to be nimble in the coming quarters.

The financial statements herein are those of the Knights of Columbus Limited Duration Fund (the “Limited Duration Fund”), the Knights of Columbus Core Bond Fund (the “Core Bond Fund”), the Knights of Columbus Long/ Short Equity Fund (the “Long/Short Equity Fund”), the Knights of Columbus Large Cap Value Fund (the “Large Cap Value Fund”), the Knights of Columbus Large Cap Growth Fund (the “Large Cap Growth Fund”), the Knights of Columbus Small Cap Fund (the “Small Cap Fund”), the Knights of Columbus U.S. All Cap Index Fund (the “U.S. All Cap Index Fund”), the Knights of Columbus Real Estate Fund (the “Real Estate Fund”) and the Knights of Columbus International Equity Fund (the “International Equity Fund”) (collectively the “Funds,” individually a “Fund”), each of which is a diversified Fund, except the Large Cap Growth Fund, which is a non-diversified Fund. The investment objective of the Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund is to seek current income and capital preservation. The investment objective of the Long/Short Equity Fund, Large Cap Value Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Fund and International Equity Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation.

The financial statements of the remaining funds of the Trust are presented separately. The assets of each fund are segregated, and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the fund in which shares are held.
Effective February 25, 2021, Investor Shares Class were converted to I Shares Class of the Funds. After the Conversion Date, Investor Shares will no longer be offered by the Funds, and were terminated as a separately designated class of the Funds.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following are significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in the preparation of its financial statements of the Funds. The Funds are investment companies that apply the accounting and reporting guidance issued in Topic 946 by the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.
Security Valuation — Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market (the “NASDAQ”)), including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on an exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded on valuation date (or at approximately 4:00 pm ET if a security’s primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent quoted bid price. For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. If available, debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Such methodologies generally consider such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings and developments relating to specific securities in arriving at valuations. On the first day a new debt security purchase is recorded, if a price is not available on the automated pricing feeds from our primary and secondary pricing vendors nor is it available from an independent broker, the security may be valued at its purchase price. Each day thereafter, the debt security will be valued according to the Trusts’ Fair Value Procedures until an independent source can be secured. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value provided that it is determined the amortized cost continues to approximate fair value. Should existing credit, liquidity or interest rate conditions in the relevant markets and issuer specific circumstances suggest that amortized cost does not approximate fair value, then the amortized cost method may not be used. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates.
Securities for which market prices are not “readily available” are required to be fair valued under the 1940 Act.
In December 2020, the SEC adopted Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, establishing requirements to determine fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. The rule permits fund boards to designate a fund’s investment adviser to perform fair-value determinations, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions. The rule also defines when market quotations are “readily available” for purposes of the 1940 Act and requires a fund to fair value a portfolio investment when a market quotation is not readily available. The SEC also adopted new Rule 31a-4 under the 1940 Act, which sets forth recordkeeping requirements associated with fair-value determinations. The compliance date for Rule 2a-5 and Rule 31a-4 was September 8, 2022.

Knights of Columbus Asset Advisors LLC (“Knights of Columbus Asset Advisors”) serves as the Funds’ investment adviser (the “Adviser”). Effective September 8, 2022, and pursuant to the requirements of Rule 2a-5, the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) designated the Adviser as the Board’s valuation designee to perform fair-value determinations for the Funds through a Fair Value Committee (the “Committee”) established by the Adviser and approved new Adviser Fair Value Procedures for the Funds. Prior to September 8, 2022, fair-value determinations were performed in accordance with the Trust’s Fair Value Procedures established by the Funds’ Board and were implemented through the Committee designated by the Board.
Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using fair value procedures include: the security’s trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from a national exchange; the security’s primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; or the security’s primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price. When a security is valued in accordance with the fair value procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee.
For securities that principally trade on a foreign market or exchange, a significant gap in time can exist between the time of a particular security’s last trade and the time at which a Fund calculates its net asset value. The closing prices of such securities may no longer reflect their market value at the time a Fund calculates net asset value if an event that could materially affect the value of those securities (a “Significant Event”) has occurred between the time of the security’s last close and the time that a Fund calculates net asset value. A Significant Event may relate to a single issuer or to an entire market sector. If the Adviser becomes aware of a Significant Event that has occurred with respect to a security or group of securities after the closing of the exchange or market on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the time at which a Fund calculates net asset value, it may request that a Committee meeting be called.
The Funds use Intercontinental Exchange Data Pricing & Reference Data, LLC (“ICE”) as a third party fair valuation vendor when the fair value trigger is met. ICE provides a fair value for foreign securities in the Funds based on certain factors and methodologies (involving, generally, tracking valuation correlations between the U.S. market and each non-U.S. security) applied by ICE in the event that there is a movement in the U.S. market that exceeds a specific threshold established by the Committee. The Committee establishes a “confidence interval” which is used to determine the level of correlation between the value of a foreign security and movements in the U.S. market before a particular security is fair valued when the threshold is exceeded. In the event that the threshold established by the Committee is exceeded on a specific day, the Funds value theirs non-U.S. securities that exceed the applicable “confidence interval” based upon the fair values provided by ICE. In such event, it is not necessary to hold a Committee meeting. In the event that the Adviser believes that the fair values provided by ICE are not reliable, the Adviser contacts SEI Investments Global Fund Services (the “Administrator”) and may request that a meeting of the Committee be held.
If a local market in which the Funds own securities is closed for one or more days, the Funds shall value all securities held in the corresponding currency based on the fair value prices provided by ICE using the predetermined confidence interval discussed above.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:
Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access at the measurement date;
Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (includes quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, referenced indices, quoted prices in inactive markets, adjusted quoted prices in active markets, adjusted quoted prices on foreign equity securities that were adjusted in accordance with the Adviser’s pricing procedures, etc.)
Level 3 — Prices, inputs or exotic modeling techniques which are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).
Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement.
The unobservable inputs used to determine fair value of recurring Level 3 assets may have similar or diverging impacts on valuation. Significant increases and decreases in these inputs in isolation and interrelationships between those inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.
Federal Income Taxes — It is each Fund’s intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes by complying with the appropriate provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and to distribute substantially all of its income to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made in the financial statements.

The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is “more likely- than-not” (i.e., greater than 50-percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit in the current year. The Funds did not record any tax provision in the current period. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the open tax year ends, since inception), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.
As of and during the year ended October 31, 2022, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
Security Transactions and Investment Income — Security transactions are accounted for on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sales of investment securities are based on specific identification. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis from settlement date. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted and amortized using the effective interest method. Realized gains (losses) on paydowns of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are recorded as an adjustment to interest income.
Foreign Currency Translation — The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. The Funds do not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. These gains and losses are included in net realized gains and losses on investments and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments on the Statements of Operations. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from foreign currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of the investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid.
Options Written/Purchased — The Long/Short Equity Fund invested in financial options contracts to add return or to hedge their existing portfolio securities. When a Fund writes or purchases an option, an amount equal to the premium received or paid by a Fund is recorded as a liability or an asset and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written or purchased. Premiums received or paid from writing or purchasing options which expire unexercised are treated by a Fund on the expiration date as realized gains or losses. The difference between the premium and the amount paid or received on affecting a closing purchase or sale transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain or loss. If an option is exercised, the premium paid or received is added to the cost of the purchase or proceeds from the sale in determining whether a Fund has realized a gain or a loss. The risk in writing a call option is that a Fund gives up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases. The risk in writing a put option is that a Fund may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in purchasing an option is that a Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. A Fund also has the additional risk of being unable to enter into a closing transaction at an acceptable price if a liquid secondary market does not exist. Option contracts also involve the risk that they may not work as intended due to unanticipated developments in market conditions or other causes. Finally, for written options, the risk exists that losses could exceed amounts disclosed on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Refer to the Long/Short Equity Fund’s Schedule of Investments for details regarding open option contracts as of October 31, 2022.
For the year ended October 31, 2022, the quarterly average balances of options held by the Long/Short Equity Fund was as follows:
Average Quarterly Market Value Contracts Purchased | $ | 256,167 | ||
Average Quarterly Market Value Contracts Written | $ | — |
Securities Sold Short — Consistent with Long/Short Equity Fund’s investment objectives, the Fund may engage in short sales. Short sales are transactions under which the Fund sells a security it does not own. To complete such a transaction, the Fund must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. The Fund then is obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing the security at the market price at the time of the replacement. The price at such time may be more or less than the price at which the security was sold by a Fund. Until the security is replaced, the Fund is required to pay the lender amounts equal to any dividends or interest that accrue during the period of the loan. Dividends and interest are shown as an expense for financial reporting purposes. To borrow the security, the Fund also may be required to pay a premium, which would decrease proceeds of the security sold. The proceeds of the short sale are retained by the broker, to the extent necessary to meet margin requirements, until the short position is closed out. A gain, limited to the price at which a Fund sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in size, will be recognized upon the close of a short sale.
Until the Fund closes its short position or replaces the borrowed security, the Fund will: (a) maintain a segregated account containing cash or liquid securities at such a level that (i) the amount deposited in the account plus the amount deposited with the broker as collateral will equal the current value of the security sold short; and (ii) the amount deposited in the segregated account plus the amount deposited

with the broker as collateral will not be less than the market value of the security at the time the security was sold short, or (b) otherwise cover the Fund’s short positions. As of October 31, 2022, the Long/Short Equity Fund had open short positions as disclosed in the Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
In accordance with the terms of its prime brokerage agreement, the Fund may receive rebate income or be charged a fee on borrowed securities. Such income or fee is calculated on a daily basis based upon the market value of each borrowed security and a variable rate that is dependent upon the availability of such security. The Fund records these prime broker charges on a net basis as interest income or interest expense on securities sold short. In addition, the Fund is required to pay the lender any dividends declared on short positions. Such amounts are recorded on the ex-dividend date as dividend expense on securities sold short.
Short sales are collateralized by cash deposits with the prime broker, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., and pledged securities held at the custodian, Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. The collateral required is determined daily by reference to the market value on short positions.
The Fund is required to maintain margin cash balances at the prime broker sufficient to satisfy its short sales positions on a daily basis and is charged an interest expense at the benchmark rate as defined in the prime brokerage agreement plus 150 basis points on the amount of any shortfall in the required cash margin. During the period, the benchmark rate consisted of the Fed Funds Rate, the ICE LIBOR USD 3 Month Rate, or a blended rate between the Fed Funds Rate and the ICE LIBOR USD 3 Month Rate. These amounts are disclosed as Receivable from Prime Broker on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Long/Short Equity Fund had prime brokerage borrowings throughout the year ended October 31, 2022 as follows:
Maximum Amount Borrowed | Average Outstanding Balance | Effective Borrowing Rate Paid | Borrowing Cost Paid | |||||
USD | $ 860,139 | $ 4,716,453 | 2.188% | $ 103,218 |
Swap Contracts — The Long/Short Equity Fund and the U.S. All Cap Index Fund are authorized to enter into swap contracts, including total return swaps and equity swaps contracts. Swaps are a two-party contract in which the seller (buyer) will pay to the buyer (seller) the difference between the current value of a security and its value at the time the contract was entered. In a typical equity swap, one party agrees to pay another party the return on a stock, stock index or basket of stocks in return for a specified interest rate. By entering into an equity index swap, for example, the index receiver can gain exposure to stocks making up the index of securities without actually purchasing those stocks. Equity index swaps involve not only the risk associated with investment in the securities represented in the index, but also the risk that the performance of such securities, including dividends, will not exceed the return on the interest rate that the Fund will be committed to pay.
Total return swaps are contracts in which one party agrees to make payments of the total return from a reference instrument — which may be a single asset, a pool of assets or an index of assets — during a specified period, in return for payments equal to a fixed or floating rate of interest or the total return from another underlying reference instrument. The total return includes appreciation or depreciation on the underlying asset, plus any interest or dividend payments. Payments under the swap are based upon an agreed upon principal amount but, since the principal amount is not exchanged, it represents neither an asset nor a liability to either counterparty, and is referred to as notional. Total return swaps are marked to market daily using different sources, including quotations from counterparties, pricing services, brokers or market makers. The unrealized appreciation or depreciation related to the change in the valuation of the notional amount of the swap is combined with the amount due to the Fund at termination or settlement. The primary risks associated with total return swaps are credit risks (if the counterparty fails to meet its obligations) and market risk (if there is no liquid market for the swap or unfavorable changes occur to the underlying reference instrument).
Periodic payments made or received are recorded as realized gains or losses. At period end, the Statements of Assets and Liabilities reflect, if any, unrealized appreciation or depreciation and accrued periodic payments for swap contracts the Fund may have open at period end. Entering into swap contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these contracts, that the counterparty to the contract may default on its obligation to perform and that there may be unfavorable changes in market conditions or fluctuations in interest rates. Swap contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed on the Schedule of Investments. In connection with swap contracts, cash or securities may be segregated as collateral by the Fund’s custodian.
There is the risk that the counterparty refuses to continue to enter into swap agreements with the Fund in the future, or requires increased fees, which could impair the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. A counterparty may also increase its collateral requirements, which may limit the Fund’s ability to use leverage and reduce investment returns. In addition, if the Fund cannot locate a counterparty willing to enter into transactions with the Fund, it will not be able to implement its investment strategy. During the year ended October 31, 2022, the Funds’ swap agreements were with one counterparty, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

OCTOBER 31, 2022 | ||
For the year ended October 31, 2022, only the U.S. All Cap Index Fund employed total returns swaps. The quarterly average balances of swap contracts held by the Fund was as follows:
U.S. All Cap Index Fund | ||||
Average Quarterly Market Value Balance Long | $ | 2,338,363 | ||
Average Quarterly Market Value Balance Short | $ | (2,333,826 | ) |
Cash — Idle cash may be swept into various time deposit accounts and money market sweep accounts and is classified as cash on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds maintain cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed United States federally insured limits. Amounts invested are available on the same business day.
Expenses — Expenses of the Trust that can be directly attributed to a particular Fund are borne by that Fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are apportioned among the Funds of the Trust based on the number of funds and/or relative net assets.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders — The Funds will distribute substantially all of their net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. All distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date.
Investments in REITs — Dividend income from Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REIT”) is recorded based on the income included in distributions received from the REIT investments using published REIT reclassifications, including some management estimates when actual amounts are not available. Distributions received in excess of this estimated amount are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments or reclassified to capital gains. The actual amounts of income, return of capital, and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after its fiscal year-end, and may differ from the estimated amounts.
Redemption Fees — The Limited Duration Fund, Core Bond Fund, Long/Short Equity Fund, Large Cap Value Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Fund, U.S. All Cap Index Fund, Real Estate Fund and International Equity Fund retain a redemption fee of 2.00% on redemptions of capital shares held for less than thirty days. For the year ended October 31, 2022, the Funds retained fees of $90, $85, $500, $117, $53, $24, $73, $35 and $435, respectively. For the year ended October 31, 2021, the Funds retained fees of $19, $79, $2,011, $540, $1,732, $446, $0, $0 and $580, respectively. Such fees are retained by the Funds for the benefit of the remaining shareholders and are recorded as additions to fund capital.
3. Derivative Transactions:
The Long/Short Equity Fund and the U.S. All Cap Index Fund held derivatives throughout the period with only one type of exposure to equity risk on derivatives, additional information can be found on the Schedules of Investments, Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the Statements of Operations.
4. Offsetting Assets and Liabilities:
The Funds are required to disclose the impact of offsetting assets and liabilities represented in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on its financial position for recognized assets and liabilities. These recognized assets and liabilities are financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement or meet the following right of setoff criteria: the amounts owed by the Fund to another party are determinable, the Fund has the right to set off the amounts owed with the amounts owed by the other party, the Fund intends to set off, and the Fund’s right of setoff is enforceable at law.
The International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and events of default or termination. The occurrence of a specified event of termination may give a counterparty the right to terminate all of its contracts and effect settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable ISDA Master Agreement.
To reduce counterparty risk with respect to Over-the-Counter (“OTC”) transactions, the Long/Short Equity Fund and the U.S. All Cap Index Fund have entered into master netting arrangements, established within the Funds’ ISDA Master Agreements, which allow the Fund to make (or to have an entitlement to receive) a single net payment in the event of default (close-out netting) for outstanding payables and receivables with respect to certain OTC positions in swaps for each individual counterparty. In addition, the Funds may require that certain counterparties post cash and/or securities in collateral accounts to cover their net payment obligations for those derivative contracts subject to ISDA Master Agreements. If the counterparty fails to perform under these contracts and agreements, the cash and/or securities will be made available to the Funds.
For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events.
Collateral terms are contract specific for OTC derivatives. For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting marked-to-market amount of each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by the Funds or the counterparty.

For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Funds, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged as collateral. Non-cash collateral pledged by the Funds, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a party must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer has to be made. To the extent amounts due to the Funds from its respective counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Funds bear the risk of loss from counterparty nonperformance. As of October 31, 2022, the Long/Short Equity Fund did not hold financial instruments or OTC derivatives subject to master netting arrangements.
The following is a summary by counterparty of the market value of swap agreements and collateral (received)/pledged for the U.S. All Cap Index Fund as of October 31, 2022:

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to keep Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, non-routine expenses and any class-specific expenses (including distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and shareholder servicing fees) (collectively, “excluded expenses”)) for I Shares and Class S Shares from exceeding certain levels as set forth below until February 28, 2023 (each, a “contractual expense limit”). Refer to Note 1 for the details regarding the termination of the Investor Shares during the period. This agreement may be terminated: (i) by the Board, for any reason at any time; or (ii) by the Adviser, upon ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to the Trust, effective as of the close of business on February 28, 2023. Accordingly, the contractual expense limitations for the Limited Duration Fund, Core Bond Fund, Long/ Short Equity Fund, Large Cap Value Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Fund, U.S. All Cap Index Fund, Real Estate Fund, and International Equity Fund are 0.50%, 0.50%, 1.50%, 0.90%, 0.90%, 1.05%, 0.25%, 1.00%, and 1.10%, respectively.
In addition, if at any point it becomes unnecessary for the Adviser to reduce fees or make expense reimbursements, the Board may permit the Adviser to retain the difference between the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses and the expense caps listed above to recapture all or a portion of its prior fee reductions or reimbursements made during the preceding three-year period. For the year ended October 31, 2022, the Adviser recaptured previously waived fees in Large Cap Value Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund and Small Cap Fund of $83,303, $61,246 and $103,571, respectively.

9. Federal Tax Information:
The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gains distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent in nature. The permanent differences are primarily related to net operating losses, redemption in-kind, short sale dividends, investments in perpetual bonds, passive foreign investment companies, swaps, REITS income reclassification to capital gain, distribution reclassification, foreign currency gain/loss and paydown gain/loss reclassification. Certain permanent differences are charged or credited to distributable earnings or paid in capital as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise.
The Real Estate Fund has a tax year that ends on December 31. The following tax disclosures are representative as of October 31, 2022, except for the permanent reclassification and components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses), which are as of December 31, 2021. Accordingly, the disclosures are for informational use by shareholders and are subject to change attributable to activity through the end of the tax year-ending December 31, 2022.

10. Concentration of Risks:
As with all mutual funds, there is no guarantee that the Funds will achieve their investment objectives. You could lose money by investing in the Funds. A Fund share is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any government agency. The principal risk factors affecting shareholders’ investments in the Funds are set forth below.
Catholic Values Investing Risk (All Funds) — The Funds considers the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (the “USCCB”) Guidelines in its investment process and may choose not to purchase, or may sell, including at inopportune times which would result in losses to the Fund, otherwise profitable investments in companies which have been identified as being in conflict with the USCCB Guidelines. This means that the Funds may underperform other similar mutual funds that do not consider the USCCB Guidelines when making investment decisions. In addition, there can be no guarantee that the activities of the companies identified by the Fund’s investment process will align (or be perceived to align) with the principles contained in the USCCB Guidelines.
86
THE ADVISORS’ INNER CIRCLE FUND III | KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS FUNDS | |
OCTOBER 31, 2022 | ||
Active Management Risk (Core Bond Fund, Limited Duration Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund, Large Cap Value Fund, Small Cap Fund, International Equity Fund, Long/Short Equity Fund, Real Estate Fund) — The Funds are actively managed, which means that investment decisions are made based on investment views. There is no guarantee that the investment views will produce the desired results or expected returns, causing a Fund to lose value or fail to meet its investment objective or underperform its benchmark index or funds with similar investment objectives and strategies. Furthermore, active and frequent trading that can accompany active management, also called “high turnover,” may have a negative impact on performance. Active and frequent trading may result in higher brokerage costs or mark-up charges and tax costs, which are ultimately passed on to shareholders of a Fund. Active and frequent trading may also result in adverse tax consequences.
Covered Call Risk (Real Estate Fund) — Covered call risk is the risk that the issuer of the call option will forgo any profit from increases in the market value of the underlying security covering the call option above the sum of the premium and the strike price of the call but retain the risk of loss if the underlying security declines in value. The Fund will have no control over the exercise of the option by the option holder and may lose the benefit from any capital appreciation on the underlying security. A number of factors may influence the option holder’s decision to exercise the option, including the value of the underlying security, price volatility, dividend yield and interest rates. To the extent that these factors increase the value of the call option, the option holder is more likely to exercise the option, which may negatively affect the Fund.
Derivatives Risk (Long/Short Equity Fund and U.S. All Cap Index Fund) — The Funds’ use of futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swaps is subject to derivatives risk. Derivatives are often more volatile than other investments and may magnify the Funds’ gains or losses. There are various factors that affect the Funds’ ability to achieve its objective with derivatives. Successful use of a derivative depends upon the degree to which prices of the underlying assets correlate with price movements in the derivatives the Funds buys or sells. The Funds could be negatively affected if the change in market value of its securities fails to correlate perfectly with the values of the derivatives it purchased or sold. The lack of a liquid secondary market for a derivative may prevent the Funds from closing its derivative positions and could adversely impact its ability to achieve its objective and to realize profits or limit losses. Since derivatives may be purchased for a fraction of their value, a relatively small price movement in a derivative may result in an immediate and substantial loss or gain to the Funds. Derivatives are often more volatile than other investments and the Funds may lose more in a derivative than it originally invested in it. Additionally, some derivative instruments are subject to counterparty risk, meaning that the party that issues the derivative may experience a significant credit event and may be unwilling or unable to make timely settlement payments or otherwise honor its obligations.
Forward Contracts. A forward contract involves a negotiated obligation to purchase or sell a specific security or currency at a future date (with or without delivery required), 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. Forward contracts are not traded on exchanges; rather, a bank or dealer will act as agent or as principal in order to make or take future delivery of a specified lot of a particular security or currency for the Fund’s account. Risks associated with forwards may include: (i) an imperfect correlation between the movement in prices of forward contracts and the securities or currencies underlying them; (ii) an illiquid market for forwards; (iii) difficulty in obtaining an accurate value for the forwards; and (iv) the risk that the counterparty to the forward contract will default or otherwise fail to honor its obligation. Because forwards require only a small initial investment in the form of a deposit or margin, they also involve a high degree of leverage.
Futures Contracts. Futures contracts provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of a specific security or asset at a specified future time and at a specified price. Because futures require only a small initial investment in the form of a deposit or margin, they involve a high degree of leverage. Accordingly, the fluctuation of the value of futures in relation to the underlying assets upon which they are based is magnified. Thus, the Fund may experience losses that exceed losses experienced by funds that do not use futures contracts. There may be imperfect correlation, or even no correlation, between price movements of a futures contract and price movements of investments for which futures are used as a substitute, or which futures are intended to hedge.
Lack of correlation (or tracking) may be due to factors unrelated to the value of the investments being substituted or hedged, such as speculative or other pressures on the markets in which these instruments are traded. Consequently, the effectiveness of futures as a security substitute or as a hedging vehicle will depend, in part, on the degree of correlation between price movements in the futures and price movements in underlying securities or assets. While futures contracts are generally classified as liquid, under certain market conditions they may be classified as illiquid. Futures exchanges may impose daily or intra-day price change limits and/or limit the volume of trading.
Additionally, government regulation may further reduce liquidity through similar trading restrictions. As a result, the Fund may be unable to close out its futures contracts at a time that is advantageous. The successful use of futures depends upon a variety of factors, particularly the ability of the investment managers to predict movements of the underlying securities markets, which
87
THE ADVISORS’ INNER CIRCLE FUND III | KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS FUNDS | |
OCTOBER 31, 2022 | ||
requires different skills than predicting changes in the prices of individual securities. There can be no assurance that any particular futures strategy adopted will succeed.
Options. Options involve the payment or receipt of a premium by the investor and the corresponding right or obligation, as the case may be, to either purchase or sell the underlying security for a specific price at a certain time or during a certain period. Purchasing options involves the risk that the underlying instrument will not change price in the manner expected, so that the investor loses its premium. Selling options involves potentially greater risk because the investor is exposed to the extent of the actual price movement in the underlying security rather than only the premium payment received (which could result in a potentially unlimited loss). If the Fund writes a “covered” call option (i.e., a call option on a security in which the Fund holds a long position), the Fund may not participate fully in a rise in market value of the underlying security. Over-the-counter options also involve counterparty solvency risk.
Swaps. In a swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns, differentials in rates of return or some other amount earned or realized on the “notional amount” of predetermined investments or instruments, which may be adjusted for an interest factor. Swaps can involve greater risks than direct investment in securities, because swaps may be leveraged and are subject to counterparty risk and valuation risk. Swaps may also be classified as illiquid. It may not be possible for the Fund to liquidate a swap position at an advantageous time or price, which may result in significant losses.
Emerging Markets Securities Risk (International Equity Fund) – The Fund’s investments in emerging markets securities are considered speculative and subject to heightened risks in addition to the general risks of investing in foreign securities. Unlike more established markets, emerging markets may have governments that are less stable, markets that are less liquid and economies that are less developed. In addition, the securities markets of emerging market countries may consist of companies with smaller market capitalizations and may suffer periods of relative illiquidity; significant price volatility; restrictions on foreign investment; and possible restrictions on repatriation of investment income and capital. Furthermore, foreign investors may be required to register the proceeds of sales, and future economic or political crises could lead to price controls, forced mergers, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, seizure, nationalization or creation of government monopolies.
Equity Risk (Long/Short Equity Fund, Large Cap Value Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Fund, U.S. All Cap Index Fund, Real Estate Fund and International Equity Fund) – Since the Funds purchase equity securities, the Funds are subject to the risk that stock prices will fall over short or extended periods of time. Historically, the equity markets have moved in cycles, and the value of the Funds’ equity securities may fluctuate drastically from day to day. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by such companies may suffer a decline in response. These factors contribute to price volatility, which is the principal risk of investing in the Funds.
Fixed Income Risk (Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund) – The market values of fixed income investments change in response to interest rate changes and other factors. During periods of rising interest rates, the values of outstanding fixed income securities generally decrease. Moreover, while securities with longer maturities tend to produce higher yields, the prices of longer maturity securities are also subject to greater market value fluctuations as a result of changes in interest rates. During periods of falling interest rates, certain debt obligations with high interest rates may be prepaid (or “called”) by the issuer prior to maturity, and during periods of rising interest rates, certain debt obligations with low interest rates may be extended beyond maturity. Current market conditions may pose heightened risks for the Funds. While interest rates in the U.S. are near historic lows, recent changes in government policy, including the Federal Reserve ending its quantitative easing program and raising the federal funds rate, have increased the risk that interest rates will continue to rise in the near future. A rise in interest rates may, in turn, increase volatility and reduce liquidity in the fixed income markets, and result in a decline in the value of the fixed income investments held by the Funds. In addition, reductions in dealer market-making capacity as a result of structural or regulatory changes could further decrease liquidity and/or increase volatility in the fixed income markets. As a result of these conditions, the Funds’ values may fluctuate and/or Funds may experience increased redemptions from shareholders, which may impact the Funds’ liquidity or force Funds to sell securities into a declining or illiquid market.
In addition to these risks, fixed income securities may be subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that an issuer will be unable or unwilling to make timely payments of either principal or interest.
Foreign Company Risk (Real Estate Fund and International Equity Fund) – Investing in foreign companies, including direct investments and investments through ADRs, poses additional risks since political and economic events unique to a country or region will affect those markets and their issuers. These risks will not necessarily affect the U.S. economy or similar issuers located in the United States. Securities of foreign companies may not be registered with the SEC and foreign companies are generally not subject to the regulatory controls imposed on U.S. issuers and, as a consequence, there is generally less publically available information about foreign securities than is available about domestic securities. Income from foreign securities owned by the Funds may be reduced by a withholding tax at the source, which tax would reduce income received from the securities comprising the Fund’s portfolios. Foreign securities may also be more difficult to value than securities of U.S. issuers. While ADRs provide an alternative to directly purchasing the underlying foreign securities in their respective national markets and currencies, investments in ADRs continue to be subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities.

OCTOBER 31, 2022 | ||
Foreign Currency Risk (Real Estate Fund and International Equity Fund) – As a result of the Fund’s investments in securities denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies, the Fund will be subject to currency risk. Currency risk is the risk that foreign currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar, in which case, the dollar value of an investment in the Fund would be adversely affected.
High Yield Bond Risk (Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund) – High yield, or “junk,” bonds are highly speculative securities that are usually issued by smaller, less creditworthy and/or highly leveraged (indebted) companies. Compared with investment-grade bonds, high yield bonds are considered to carry a greater degree of risk and are considered to be less likely to make payments of interest and principal. In particular, lower-quality high yield bonds (rated CCC, CC, C, or unrated securities judged to be of comparable quality) are subject to a greater degree of credit risk than higher-quality high yield bonds and may be near default. High yield bonds rated D are in default. Market developments and the financial and business conditions of the issuers of these securities generally influence their price and liquidity more than changes in interest rates, when compared to investment-grade debt securities.
Indexing Strategy/Index Tracking Risk (U.S. All Cap Index Fund) – The Fund is managed with an indexing investment strategy, attempting to track the performance of an unmanaged index of securities, regardless of the current or projected performance of the Index or of the actual securities comprising the Index. This differs from an actively-managed fund, which typically seeks to outperform a benchmark index. As a result, the Fund’s performance may be less favorable than that of a portfolio managed using an active investment strategy. The structure and composition of the Index will affect the performance, volatility, and risk of the Index and, consequently, the performance, volatility, and risk of the Fund. While the Sub-Adviser seeks to track the performance of the Index (i.e., achieve a high degree of correlation with the Index), the Fund’s return may not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the return of the Index. The Fund incurs a number of operating expenses not applicable to the Index, and incurs costs in buying and selling securities. In addition, the Fund may not be fully invested at times, generally as a result of cash flows into or out of the Fund or reserves of cash held by the Fund to meet redemptions.
Investment Style Risk (Long/Short Equity Fund, Large Cap Value Fund and Large Cap Growth Fund) – The Sub-Adviser’s value investment style may increase the risks of investing in the Fund. If the Sub-Adviser’s assessment of market conditions, or a company’s value or prospects for exceeding earnings expectations is inaccurate, the Fund could suffer losses or produce poor performance relative to other funds. In addition, “value stocks” can continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time.
Large-Capitalization Company Risk (Long/Short Equity Fund, Large Cap Value Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund, U.S. All Cap Index Fund and Real Estate Fund) — The large-capitalization companies in which the Fund invests may not respond as quickly as smaller companies to competitive challenges, and their growth rates may lag the growth rates of well-managed smaller companies during strong economic periods.
Large Purchase and Redemption Risk (All Funds) — Large purchases or redemptions of the Fund’s shares may force the Fund to purchase or sell securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, and may cause the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate and transaction costs to rise, which may negatively affect the Fund’s performance and have adverse tax consequences for Fund shareholders.
Market Risk (All Funds) – Each Fund is subject to market risk, which is the risk that the market value of a security may move up and down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Market risk may affect a single issuer, an industry, a sector or the market as a whole.
Similarly, the impact of any epidemic, pandemic or natural disaster, or widespread fear that such events may occur, could negatively affect the global economy, as well as the economies of individual countries, the financial performance of individual companies and sectors, and the markets in general in significant and unforeseen ways. Any such impact could adversely affect the prices and liquidity of the securities and other instruments in which the Funds invest, which in turn could negatively impact the Funds’ performance and cause losses on your investment in the Funds.
Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities Risk (Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund) – Mortgage-backed securities are fixed income securities representing an interest in a pool of underlying mortgage loans. Mortgage-backed securities are sensitive to changes in interest rates, but may respond to these changes differently from other fixed income securities due to the possibility of prepayment of the underlying mortgage loans. As a result, it may not be possible to determine in advance the actual maturity date or average life of a mortgage-backed security. Rising interest rates tend to discourage refinancings, with the result that the average life and volatility of the security will increase, exacerbating the security’s decrease in market price. When interest rates fall, however, mortgage-backed securities may not gain as much in market value because of the expectation of additional mortgage prepayments, which must be reinvested at lower interest rates.
Asset-backed securities are securities backed by non-mortgage assets such as company receivables, truck and auto loans, leases and credit card receivables. Asset-backed securities may be issued as pass-through certificates, which represent undivided fractional ownership interests in the underlying pools of assets. Therefore, repayment depends largely on the cash flows generated by the assets backing the securities. Asset-backed securities entail prepayment risk, which may vary depending on the type of asset, but is generally less than the prepayment risk associated with mortgage-backed securities. Asset-backed securities present credit risks that are not presented by mortgage-backed securities because asset-backed securities generally do not have the benefit of a security interest in collateral that is comparable in quality to mortgage assets. If the issuer of an asset-backed security defaults on its payment obligations, there is the possibility that, in some cases, the Funds will be unable to possess and sell the underlying collateral and that the Funds’ recoveries on

OCTOBER 31, 2022 | ||
repossessed collateral may not be available to support payments on the security. In the event of a default, a Fund may suffer a loss if the Fund cannot sell collateral quickly and receive the amount the Fund is owed.
Municipal Bonds Risk (Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund) – Municipal bonds are fixed income securities issued by state or local governments or their agencies to finance capital expenditures and operations. The obligation to pay principal and interest on municipal bonds may be a general obligation of the state or local government or may be supported only by an agency or a particular source of revenues. Therefore, municipal bonds vary in credit quality. Municipal bonds, like other fixed income securities, rise and fall in value in response to economic and market factors, primarily changes in interest rates, and actual or perceived credit quality. State and local governments rely on taxes and, to some extent, revenues from private projects financed by municipal bonds, to pay interest and principal on municipal bonds. Poor statewide or local economic results or changing political sentiments may reduce tax revenues and increase the expenses of municipal issuers, making it more difficult for municipal issuers to meet their obligations. Also, there may be economic or political changes that impact the ability of issuers of municipal bonds to repay principal and to make interest payments. Any changes in the financial condition of municipal issuers may also adversely affect the value of the Funds’ securities.
Portfolio Turnover Risk (Long/Short Equity Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund and Real Estate Fund) — Due to its investment strategy, the Funds may buy and sell securities frequently. This may result in higher transaction costs and additional capital gains tax liabilities, which may affect the Funds’ performance.
Real Estate Investment Trusts Risk (U.S. All Cap Index Fund and Real Estate Fund) – REITs are pooled investment vehicles that own, and usually operate, income-producing real estate or finance real estate. REITs are susceptible to the risks associated with direct ownership of real estate, as discussed above. REITs typically incur fees that are separate from those of the Fund. Accordingly, the Fund’s investments in REITs will result in the layering of expenses such that shareholders will indirectly bear a proportionate share of the REITs’ operating expenses, in addition to paying Fund expenses.
Real Estate Sector Risk (Real Estate Fund) – Securities of companies principally engaged in the real estate sector may be subject to the risks associated with the direct ownership of real estate. Risks commonly associated with the direct ownership of real estate include (i) changes in general economic and market conditions; (ii) changes in the value of real estate properties; (iii) risks related to local economic conditions, overbuilding and increased competition; (iv) increases in property taxes and operating expenses; (v) changes in zoning laws; (vi) casualty and condemnation losses; (vii) variations in rental income, neighborhood values or the appeal of property to tenants; (viii) the availability of financing; and (ix) changes in interest rates and quality of credit extended. In addition, the performance of the economy in each of the regions and countries in which the real estate owned by a company is located affects occupancy, market rental rates and expenses and, consequently, has an impact on the income from such properties and their underlying values. In addition to these risks, some REITs and real estate operating companies (“REOCs”) have limited diversification because they invest in a limited number of properties, a narrow geographic area, or a single type of property. Moreover, certain real estate investments may be illiquid and, therefore, the ability of REITs and REOCs to reposition their portfolios promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions is limited. These factors may increase the volatility of the Fund’s investments in REITs or REOCs.
Sector Emphasis Risk (Long/Short Equity Fund and Real Estate Fund) – The securities of companies in the same business sector, if comprising a significant portion of the Funds’ portfolio, may in some circumstances react negatively to market conditions, interest rates and economic, regulatory or financial developments and adversely affect the value of the portfolio to a greater extent than if such securities comprised a lesser portion of the Funds’ portfolio or the Funds’ portfolio was diversified across a greater number of industry sectors.
Short Sales Risk (Long/Short Equity Fund) – A short sale involves the sale of a security that the Fund does not own in the expectation of purchasing the same security (or a security exchangeable therefore) at a later date at a lower price. Short sales expose the Fund to the risk that it will be required to buy the security sold short (also known as “covering” the short position) at a time when the security has appreciated in value, thus resulting in a loss to the Fund. Investment in short sales may also cause the Fund to incur expenses related to borrowing securities. Reinvesting proceeds received from short selling may create leverage which can amplify the effects of market volatility on the Fund and, therefore, the Fund’s share prices. Theoretically, uncovered short sales have the potential to expose the Fund to unlimited losses.
Small-Capitalization Company Risk (Small Cap Fund, U.S. All Cap Index Fund and Real Estate Fund) – The small-capitalization companies in which the Funds invest may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. In particular, investments in these small-sized companies may pose additional risks, including liquidity risk, because these companies tend to have limited product lines, markets and financial resources, and may depend upon a relatively small management group. Therefore, small-capitalization stocks may be more volatile than those of larger companies. These securities may be traded over-the-counter or listed on an exchange.
Credit Risk (Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund) – The credit rating or financial condition of an issuer may affect the value of a fixed income security. Generally, the lower the credit quality of a security, the greater the perceived risk that the issuer will fail to pay interest fully and return principal in a timely manner. If an issuer defaults or becomes unable to honor its financial obligations, the security may lose some or all of its value.

OCTOBER 31, 2022 | ||
Interest Rate Risk (Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund) – As with most funds that invest in fixed income securities, changes in interest rates could affect the value of your investment. Rising interest rates tend to cause the prices of fixed income securities (especially those with longer maturities and lower credit qualities) and the Fund’s share price to fall. Very low or negative interest rates may prevent the Fund from generating positive returns and may increase the risk that if followed by rising interest rates the Fund’s performance will be negatively impacted.
Prepayment and Extension Risk (Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund) – When interest rates fall, issuers of high interest debt obligations may pay off the debts earlier than expected (prepayment risk), and the Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds at lower yields. When interest rates rise, issuers of lower interest debt obligations may pay off the debts later than expected (extension risk), thus keeping the Fund’s assets tied up in lower interest debt obligations.
U.S. Government Securities Risk (Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund) – The Fund’s investment in U.S. government obligations may include securities issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government, or its agencies or instrumentalities. Payment of principal and interest on U.S. government obligations may be backed by the full faith and credit of the United States or may be backed solely by the issuing or guaranteeing agency or instrumentality itself. There can be no assurance that the U.S. government would provide financial support to its agencies or instrumentalities (including government-sponsored enterprises) where it is not obligated to do so. In addition, U.S. government securities are not guaranteed against price movements due to changing interest rates.
Corporate Fixed Income Securities Risk (Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund) – The prices of the Fund’s corporate fixed income securities respond to economic developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to perceptions about the creditworthiness and business prospects of individual issuers.
Liquidity Risk (Limited Duration Fund and Core Bond Fund) – Certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and the price that the Fund would like. The Fund may have to accept a lower price to sell a security, sell other securities to raise cash, or give up an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Fund management or performance.
Quantitative Investing Risk (Large Cap Value Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Fund and International Equity Fund) – There is no guarantee that a quantitative model or algorithm used by the Adviser, and the investments selected based on the model or algorithm, will perform as expected or produce the desired results. The Fund may be adversely affected by imperfections, errors or limitations in the construction and implementation of the model or algorithm and the Adviser’s ability to properly analyze or timely adjust the metrics or update the data underlying the model or features of the algorithm.
Information Technology Sector Risk (Large Cap Growth Fund) – Information technology companies face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, which may have an adverse effect on profit margins. Like other technology companies, information technology companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. The products of information technology companies may face product obsolescence due to rapid technological developments and frequent new product introduction, unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. Technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology, especially those of smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile than the overall market. Companies in the information technology sector are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights. The loss or impairment of these rights may adversely affect the profitability of these companies. Finally, while all companies may be susceptible to network security breaches, certain companies in the information technology sector may be particular targets of hacking and potential theft of proprietary or consumer information or disruptions in service, which could have a material adverse effect on their businesses.
Foreign/Emerging Markets Securities Risk (Real Estate Fund and International Equity Fund) – Investments in securities of foreign companies (including direct investments as well as investments through depositary receipts) can be more volatile than investments in U.S. companies. Diplomatic, political, or economic developments, including nationalization or appropriation, could affect investments in foreign companies. Foreign securities markets generally have less trading volume and less liquidity than U.S. markets. In addition, the value of securities denominated in foreign currencies, and of dividends from such securities, can change significantly when foreign currencies strengthen or weaken relative to the U.S. dollar. Financial statements of foreign issuers are governed by different accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards than the financial statements of U.S. issuers and may be less transparent and uniform than in the United States. Thus, there may be less information publicly available about foreign issuers than about most U.S. issuers. Transaction costs are generally higher than those in the United States and expenses for custodial arrangements of foreign securities may be somewhat greater than typical expenses for custodial arrangements of similar U.S. securities. Some foreign governments levy withholding taxes against dividend and interest income. Although in some countries a portion of these taxes are recoverable, the non-recovered portion will reduce the income received from the securities comprising a Fund’s portfolio. These risks may be heightened with respect to emerging market countries since political turmoil and rapid changes in economic conditions are more likely to occur in these countries.
Certain foreign countries have experienced outbreaks of infectious illnesses and may be subject to other public health threats, infectious illnesses, diseases or similar issues in the future. Any spread of an infectious illness, public health threat or similar issue could reduce consumer demand or economic output, result in market closures, travel restrictions or quarantines, and generally have a significant impact on the economies of the affected country and other countries with which it does business, which in turn could adversely affect a Fund’s investments in that country and other affected countries.

A Fund may invest in unsponsored American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), which are issued by one or more depositaries without a formal agreement with the company that issues the underlying securities. Holders of unsponsored ADRs generally bear all the costs thereof, and the depositaries of unsponsored ADRs frequently are under no obligation to distribute shareholder communications received from the issuers of the underlying securities or to pass through voting rights with respect to the underlying securities. In addition, the issuers of the securities underlying unsponsored ADRs are not obligated to disclose material information in the United States and, therefore, there may be less information available regarding such issuers and there may not be a correlation between such information and the market value of the ADRs.
LIBOR Replacement Risk (All Funds) – The elimination of LIBOR may adversely affect the interest rates on, and value of, certain Fund investments for which the value is tied to LIBOR. Such investments may include bank loans, derivatives, floating rate securities, and other assets or liabilities tied to LIBOR. On July 27, 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that it intends to stop compelling or inducing banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. The publication of LIBOR on a representative basis ceased for the one-week and two-month U.S. dollar LIBOR settings immediately after December 31, 2021 and is expected to cease for the remaining U.S. dollar LIBOR settings immediately after June 30, 2023. Actions by regulators have resulted in the establishment of alternative reference rates to LIBOR in most major currencies. The U.S. Federal Reserve, based on the recommendations of the New York Federal Reserve’s Alternative Reference Rate Committee (comprised of major derivative market participants and their regulators), has begun publishing a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), which is intended to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR. Alternative reference rates for other currencies have also been announced or have already begun publication. Markets are slowly developing in response to these new rates. Questions around liquidity impacted by these rates, and how to appropriately adjust these rates at the time of transition, remain a concern for the Funds. The effect of any changes to, or discontinuation of, LIBOR on the Funds will vary depending on, among other things, (1) existing fallback or termination provisions in individual contracts and (2) whether, how, and when industry participants develop and adopt new reference rates and fallbacks for both legacy and new products and instruments. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the transition away from LIBOR on the Funds until new reference rates and fallbacks for both legacy and new products, instruments and contracts are commercially accepted.
The foregoing is not intended to be a complete discussion of the risks associated with investing in the Funds. A more complete description of risks associated with the Funds is included in the prospectus and statement of additional information.
11. In-Kind Transactions:

13. Indemnifications:
In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be established; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.

Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a mutual fund, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for fund management, administrative services, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns.
Operating expenses such as these are deducted from a mutual fund’s gross income and directly reduce your investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of a mutual fund’s average net assets; this percentage is known as a mutual fund’s expense ratio.
The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period (May 1, 2022 to October 31, 2022).
The table on the next page illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:
• Actual Fund Return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that your Fund incurred over the six month period. The “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the “Ending Account Value” number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund’s gross investment return.
You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that six month period. Simply divide your actual starting account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under “Expenses Paid During Period.”
• Hypothetical 5% Return. This section helps you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund’s comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the “Expenses Paid During Period” column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other mutual funds.
NOTE: Because the hypothetical return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund’s actual return — the account values shown may not apply to your specific investment.

* Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period shown).
†The annualized expense ratios include dividend expense incurred during the six-month period. Annualized dividend expense of average net assets totaled 0.65%. Had this expense not been included the ratio would have been 1.50%.

(e)(1) The Trust’s Audit Committee has adopted and the Board of Trustees has ratified an Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the “Policy”), which sets forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which services proposed to be performed by the independent auditor of the Funds may be pre-approved.
The Policy provides that all requests or applications for proposed services to be provided by the independent auditor must be submitted to the Registrant’s Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and must include a detailed description of the services proposed to be rendered. The CFO will determine whether such services:
(1) require specific pre-approval;
(2) are included within the list of services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee pursuant to the Policy; or
(3) have been previously pre-approved in connection with the independent auditor’s annual engagement letter for the applicable year or otherwise. In any instance where services require pre-approval, the Audit Committee will consider whether such services are consistent with SEC’s rules and whether the provision of such services would impair the auditor’s independence.
Requests or applications to provide services that require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by the CFO. The Audit Committee will be informed by the CFO on a quarterly basis of all services rendered by the independent auditor. The Audit Committee has delegated specific pre-approval authority to either the Audit Committee Chair or financial expert, provided that the estimated fee for any such proposed pre-approved service does not exceed $100,000 and any pre-approval decisions are reported to the Audit Committee at its next regularly-scheduled meeting.
Services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee are identified and described in the Policy. In addition, the Policy sets forth a maximum fee per engagement with respect to each identified service that has received general pre-approval.
All services to be provided by the independent auditor shall be provided pursuant to a signed written engagement letter with the Registrant, the investment adviser, or applicable control affiliate (except that matters as to which an engagement letter would be impractical because of timing issues or because the matter is small may not be the subject of an engagement letter) that sets forth both the services to be provided by the independent auditor and the total fees to be paid to the independent auditor for those services.
In addition, the Audit Committee has determined to take additional measures on an annual basis to meet the Audit Committee’s responsibility to oversee the work of the independent auditor and to assure the auditor’s independence from the Registrant, such as (a) reviewing a formal written statement from the independent auditor delineating all relationships between the independent auditor and the Registrant, and (b) discussing with the independent auditor the independent auditor’s methods and procedures for ensuring independence.
