1WS Credit Income Fund | Management Commentary |
April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
The 1WS Credit Income Fund (the “Fund”) is a closed-end interval fund launched in March 2019. As of April 30, 2024, the Fund has gross assets under management of approximately $326 million (approximately $288 million net assets). The Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end investment management company. Its investment objective is to seek attractive risk-adjusted total returns through generating income and capital appreciation by investing primarily in a wide array of predominantly structured credit and securitized debt instruments.
Overview:
Many structured credit sectors significantly lagged the relative outperformance of equities and corporate credit benchmarks in late 2023. While many structured credit sectors have participated in the rally thus far in 2024, most sectors continue to look attractive on an outright basis and, in particular, on a relative basis compared with corporate credit alternatives, in our opinion. Across many securitized credit sectors, we continue to underwrite to weaker expected fundamentals while still observing attractive historical risk-adjusted risk premia. This remains in contrast with broader corporate credit and equity markets, which, in our opinion, seem to be pricing in a much more favorable economic and credit backdrop with little downside risk.
We continue to see significant dispersion and inconsistencies across sectors, vintages, originators, and capital structures. In our view, "higher for longer” will only augment opportunities. Because we invest across a variety of credit sectors, we have a lot to pick from in the current environment as we attempt to normalize risk and identify attractive relative risk-adjusted return opportunities across markets. We share our thoughts on the current investment environment in the following commentary, including:
● | The commercial real estate sector will continue to evolve. Tactical opportunities in bonds with attractive credit enhancement and CMBX relative value persist. We also expect to see increasing property sponsor recapitalizations. |
● | The consumer is essentially bifurcated into the “haves” and “have-nots”. An attractive return characteristic of many consumer ABS structures which, as a result of high excess spread, is that they can build credit enhancement and de-leverage rapidly. Therefore, identifying positively seasoning deals can provide significant credit spread roll-down and upside excess return potential relative to spread and yield alone. |
● | Within residential credit sector, the strength in home prices and build-up of home equity wealth continues to be a primary driver of the current low level of aggregate delinquencies/defaults in the mortgage sector. Seasoned collateral with strong payment histories, which have de-leveraged due to prior home price appreciation, has presented an investment thesis across non-agency RMBS, re-performing pools, and various forms of credit risk transfer. |
● | CLOs have continued to trade cheap relative to unsecured corporate bonds. However, given our current skepticism regarding the general lack of risk being priced into corporate markets, we remain tactical within our CLO strategy. |

Past performance is not indicative of future returns.
* | OWSCX returns are presented net of all fees and expenses, benchmark returns are gross. Please see pp. 5-7 for important risk disclosures and definitions. |
OWSAX returns prior to May 2021 reflect the performance of Class I shares, adjusted to reflect the distribution and shareholder servicing fees applicable to Class A2 shares. Class A2 shares are subject to an upfront sales load of up to 3%, which is not reflected in the returns shown above and, if applied, would lower such returns.
Management Fee: under the Advisory Agreement will be calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of the daily gross assets of the Fund. "Gross Assets" means the total assets of the Fund prior to deducting liabilities. Derivatives will be valued at market value for purposes of determining "Gross Assets" in the calculation of management fees. Because the Management Fee is based on the Fund's daily gross assets, the Fund's use of leverage, if any, will increase the Management Fee paid to the Adviser. For the initial year of the Fund, the Adviser voluntarily agreed to reduce the Management Fee to .75%. For the one-year period beginning on March 1, 2019, and continuing through the present, the Adviser has voluntarily agreed to reduce the Management Fee to 1.25% of the Fund’s daily gross assets. The Adviser is under no obligation to continue the fee waiver but may continue to do so.

1WS Credit Income Fund | Management Commentary |
April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
Portfolio Activity:
Despite modestly higher interest rates, the risk-on sentiment that propelled corporate credit and equity prices higher at the end of 2023 continued throughout 2024 so far. Structured credit sectors recovered some of the underperformance relative to corporates at the end of 2023. While benchmark credit spreads have generally tightened across most structured credit sectors, the tightening continues to lag that seen in the corporate sector, in our opinion. On a historical basis, overall spreads remain elevated, driven in part by i) unwinding secular trends enabled by a decade of low interest rates and ii) the credit dispersion that exists across individual securities, requiring investors to have the capacity to analyze individual collateral portfolios and deal structures to capture the true excess return opportunities.
Benchmark ABS spreads have narrowed, however, they continue to trade wider than prior to the current Fed hiking cycle, and materially wider than unsecured corporate debt, in our opinion. In addition, while credit curves have come in from their recent wides, they continue to remain historically steep which can, as deals season and de-leverage, provide significant credit spread roll-down and upside excess return potential relative to spread and yield alone. This is an attractive return characteristic of many consumer ABS structures which, as a result of high excess spread, can build credit enhancement and de-leverage rapidly. ABS issuance has been near record highs year-to-date in 2024, and this has contributed to an appreciable improvement in market liquidity which extends to the most esoteric sectors and securities.
The majority of benchmark commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) continued to recover from recent lows reached in 2023. Despite the spread tightening, many benchmark CMBS continue to trade at significant discounts relative to unsecured corporate. We recognize that fundamental uncertainty has increased within the CRE sector. However, we believe risk premia has widened across the sector as a whole and that there are attractive risk-adjusted relative value opportunities for diligent underwriters as a result.
Within the residential mortgage credit market, overriding themes continue to be centered around affordability and supply. Existing home sales remain down since the Fed embarked on their recent rate hiking cycle and inventories remain low with many homeowners locked in with low fixed mortgage rates and unwilling to sell. This limited supply has continued to support home prices despite the lack of affordability. It is of little surprise that aggregate mortgage credit remains strong, in our opinion. We believe the strength in home prices and build-up of home equity wealth is a primary driver of the current low level of aggregate delinquencies/defaults in the mortgage sector. In addition, underwriting standards have improved significantly since the global financial crisis (GFC) with the majority of new mortgages being made to the highest quality FICO borrowers. We remain active across the mortgage credit sector, trading agency credit risk transfer (CRT) securities and, to a lesser degree, seasoned legacy mortgages when we find attractive opportunities
We continue to be active within the non-dollar ABS & RMBS sectors. Similar to U.S. market sector dynamics, escalating uncertainty surrounding consumer fundamentals and heightened dispersion across originators, issuers, and vintages underscore the importance of rigorous underwriting to distinguish between collateral pools and deal structures. Lower in the capital structure, we exercise great selectivity in our investments, stressing fundamental assumptions to GFC-era default levels. Having said this, we do not believe we are seeing a broad-based deterioration in collateral performance to date. In our opinion, the increase in delinquencies and defaults that we are seeing are more country-, collateral-, and originator-specific.
While CLO spreads have tightened, they continue to trade cheap relative to unsecured corporate bonds, in our view. Despite this, we remain cautious of aggregate corporate/CLO exposure as market pricing, in our opinion, continues to discount the fundamental credit risks associated with higher interest rates, particularly for floating rate corporate loans. While CLOs continue to offer among the highest nominal spread and yield in the structured credit sector, on a risk-adjusted basis, we continue to favor overweighing other opportunities within structured credit.
Outlook:
As stated, we currently see significant dispersion and inconsistencies across markets, sectors, and capital structures in terms of future fundamental expectations. Despite the Fed signaling an end to the current rate hiking cycle, we believe that slowing economic growth and higher interest rates, relative to the past decade, will continue to chip away at credit fundamentals of the most vulnerable borrowers, assets, and structures. While we are not forecasting a systemic deterioration in credit fundamentals across sectors, we do believe increasing idiosyncratic risks will come to be viewed as a more consistent late-cycle performance trend, resulting in headwinds for credit over the longer term. As a result, we see the potential for increasing uncertainty and spread widening in the coming year.
Despite relatively strong performance over the past six months, we remain encouraged by the investment opportunities we currently see within structured credit. Fundamental uncertainty remains elevated in many consumer and commercial real estate sectors, which continues to lead to elevated levels of risk premia across many sectors, in our opinion. For investors with differentiated underwriting capabilities, we believe there continues to be attractive risk-adjusted return opportunities across securitized credit both outright and relative to corporate credit sectors. Benchmark spreads have narrowed, however, we believe that many sectors remain attractive on a historical and relative basis. Opportunities are more nuanced and require greater underwriting to identify the best opportunities while protecting against downside risks should fundamentals meaningfully underperform. We believe that a focus on underwriting asset price volatility as well as credit fundamentals and differentiated structural characteristics provides us greater visibility into both security selection as well as portfolio risk construction. In our opinion, this enhances our ability to generate attractive cross-cycle risk-adjusted returns.

This and other important information about the Fund is contained in the prospectus, which can be obtained by calling (833) 834-4923 or visiting www.1wscapital.com. The prospectus should be read carefully before investing.

ITD Net return is a linked monthly return. Actual returns experienced by an investor may vary due to these factors, among others.
Risk Disclosures
Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. There is no assurance that the Fund will meet its investment objective.
Limited liquidity is provided to shareholders only through the Fund’s quarterly repurchase offers for no less than 5% of the Fund’s shares outstanding at net asset value. There is no guarantee that shareholders will be able to sell all of the shares they desire to sell in a quarterly repurchase offer. The Fund is suitable only for investors who can bear the risks associated with the limited liquidity of the Fund and should be viewed as a long-term investment. The Fund’s investments may be negatively affected by the broad investment environment in the real estate market, the debt market and/or the equity securities market. The value of the Fund’s investments will increase or decrease based on changes in the prices of the investments it holds. This will cause the value of the Fund’s shares to increase or decrease. The Fund is “non-diversified” under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and, thus, changes in the financial condition or market value of a single issuer may cause a greater fluctuation in the Fund’s net asset value than in a “diversified” fund. Diversification does not eliminate the risk of experiencing investment losses. The Fund is not intended to be a complete investment program. The Fund expects most of its investments to be in securities that are rated below investment grade or would be rated below investment grade if they were rated. Below investment grade instruments or “junk securities” are particularly susceptible to economic downturns compared to higher rated investments. While the Fund may employ hedging techniques to seek to minimize interest rate risk, there can be no assurance that it will engage in such techniques at any given time or that such techniques would be successful. As such, the Fund is subject to interest rate risk and may decline in value as interest rates rise. The Fund may use leverage to achieve its investment objective, which involves risks, including the increased likelihood of net asset value volatility and the increased risk that fluctuations in interest rates on borrowings will reduce the return to investors. In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, investing in international and emerging markets involves risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuations in currency values, differences in generally accepted accounting principles or from social, economic or political instability in other nations. The Fund may employ hedging techniques to seek to minimize foreign currency risk. There can be no assurance that it will engage in such techniques at any given time or that such techniques would be successful. The Fund may invest in derivatives, which, depending on market conditions and the type of derivative, are more volatile than other investments and could magnify the Fund’s gains or losses. An investment in shares should be considered only by investors who can assess and bear the illiquidity and other risks associated with such an investment.
Market risk may affect a single issuer, sector of the economy, industry or the market as a whole. Mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are affected by interest rates, financial health of issuers/originators, creditworthiness of entities providing credit enhancements and the value of underlying assets. Fixed-income securities present issuer default risk. Prepayment and extension risk exists because a loan, bond or other investment may be called, prepaid or redeemed before maturity and similar yielding investments may not be available for purchase. Structured finance securities may present risks similar to those of the other types of debt obligations in which the Fund may invest and, in fact, such risks may be of greater significance in the case of structured finance securities. Investing in structured finance securities may be affected by a variety of factors, including priority in the capital structure of the issuer thereof, the availability of any credit enhancement, and the level and timing of payments and recoveries on and the characteristics of the underlying receivables, loans or other assets that are being securitized, among others. Market or other (e.g., interest rate) environments may adversely affect the liquidity of Fund investments, negatively impacting their price. Generally, the less liquid the market at the time the Fund sells a holding, the greater the risk of loss or decline of value to the Fund. See the Fund’s prospectus for information on these and other risks.
There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. Many of the Fund’s investments may be considered speculative and subject to increased risk. Neither One William Street Capital Management, LP nor 1WS Capital Advisors, LLC has managed a 1940-Act registered product prior to managing the fund. Investing in the Fund involves risks, including the risk that you may receive little or no return on your investment or that you may lose part or all of your investment. The ability of the Fund to achieve its investment objective depends, in part, on the ability of the Adviser to allocate effectively the assets of the Fund among the various securities and investments in which the Fund invests. There can be no assurance that the actual allocations or investment selections will be effective in achieving the Fund’s investment objective or delivering positive returns.
The information provided is not intended to be a forecast of future events, a guarantee of future results or investment advice, so actual outcomes and results may differ significantly from the views expressed. These views are subject to change at any time based upon economic, market or other conditions and the portfolio manager disclaims any responsibility to update such views. The views expressed in this report reflect the current views of the portfolio manager as of April 30, 2024.

There are limitations when comparing the 1WS Credit Income Fund to indices. Many open-end funds which track these indices offer daily liquidity, while closed-end interval funds offer liquidity on a periodic basis. Deteriorating general market conditions will reduce the value of stock securities. When interest rates rise, the value of bond securities tends to fall. Investing in lower-rated securities involves special risks in addition to the risks associated with investments in investment grade securities, including a high degree of credit risk. Lower-rated securities may be regarded as predominately speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to meet principal and interest payments. Analysis of the creditworthiness of issuers/issues of lower-rated securities may be more complex than for issuers/issues of higher quality debt securities. There is a risk that issuers will not make payments, resulting in losses to the Fund. In addition, the credit quality of securities may be lowered if an issuer’s financial condition changes. Assets and securities contained within indices are different than the assets and securities contained in the 1WS Credit Income Fund and will therefore have different risk and reward profiles. An investment cannot be made in an index, which is unmanaged and has returns that do not reflect any trading, management or other costs. Please see definitions for a description of the investment indexes selected.

Credit default swaps pay quarterly.
(a) | If the Fund is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. |
(b) | Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value of credit default swap agreements as of period end serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. Wider credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement. |
(c) | The maximum potential amount the Fund could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. |

1WS Credit Income Fund | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements |
April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION
1WS Credit Income Fund (“1WS Credit” or the “Fund”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that continuously offers its shares of beneficial interest (‘‘Shares’’). 1WS Credit operates as an interval fund under Rule 23c-3 of the 1940 Act and, as such, has adopted a policy to make quarterly repurchase offers at a price equal to net asset value (‘‘NAV’’) per Share of at least 5% of outstanding Shares.
1WS Credit’s investment objective is to seek attractive risk-adjusted total returns through generating income and capital appreciation. 1WS Credit will seek to achieve its investment objective by investing in a wide array of predominantly structured credit and securitized debt instruments. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.
1WS Credit was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on July 20, 2018 pursuant to an Agreement and Declaration of Trust governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. 1WS Credit had no operations from that date to March 4, 2019, commencement of operations, other than those related to organizational matters and the registration of its Shares under applicable securities laws. 1WS Credit wholly owns and consolidates 1WSCI Sub I, LLC (the “Cayman Islands SPV”), an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on February 22, 2019. The Cayman Islands SPV is an investment vehicle formed to make certain investments on behalf of 1WS Credit. 1WS Credit is the managing and sole member of the Cayman Islands SPV pursuant to a limited liability agreement dated March 1, 2019. Where context requires, the “Fund” includes both the Fund and the Cayman Islands SPV.
1WS Capital Advisors, LLC (the ‘‘Adviser’’ or ‘‘1WS’’) serves as the investment adviser of the Fund. 1WS is a Delaware limited liability company that is registered as an investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ‘‘SEC’’) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the ‘‘Advisers Act’’). The Adviser is controlled by its managing member, One William Street Capital Management, L.P. (‘‘OWS’’), which is also registered with the SEC as an investment adviser. The Fund’s portfolio manager and other personnel of the Adviser have substantial experience in managing investments and investment funds, including funds which have investment programs similar to that of the Fund.
The Fund currently offers Institutional (“Class I”) Shares and Brokerage Class ("Class A-2") Shares (collectively, the "Share Classes"). Both Share Classes of the Fund are being offered on a continuous basis at the NAV per Share calculated each day. Class A-2 Shares are offered subject to a maximum sales charge of 3.00% of their offering price and an asset-based distribution/shareholder servicing fee not to exceed 0.75% of its net assets and Class I shares are not subject to any sales load or asset-based distribution fee. Class A-2 Shares purchased without a sales charge may be subject to a 1.50% contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC"). The Fund received exemptive relief from the SEC to issue multiple classes of Shares and to impose asset-based distribution fees as applicable. Class I and Class A-2 shares commenced operations on March 4, 2019 and May 1, 2021, respectively.
Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the Fund and classes are identical except for differences in their sales charge structures and ongoing service and distribution charges. All classes of shares have equal voting privileges except that each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its service and/or distribution plans. The Fund's income, expenses (other than class specific service and distribution fees) and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated proportionately each day based upon the relative net assets of each class.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and are stated in United States dollars. The Fund is considered an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance for investment companies under Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (‘’FASB’’) Accounting Standards Codification (‘’ASC’’) 946, Financial Services-Investment Companies, including accounting for investments at fair value.
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Adviser believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the financial statements are reasonable and prudent; however, actual results could differ from such estimates and the differences could be material.
Consolidation: 1WS Credit consolidates its investment in the Cayman Islands SPV because 1WS Credit is the sole shareholder of this entity. In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the Cayman Islands SPV’s assets and liabilities and results of operations. All investments held by the Cayman Islands SPV are disclosed in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Investment Transactions: Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis for financial reporting purposes and amounts payable or receivable for trades not settled at the time of year end are reflected as liabilities and assets, respectively. Interest is recorded on an accrual basis. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions reflected in the consolidated statement of operations are recorded on a first-in, first-out basis.

1WS Credit Income Fund | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements |
April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
Premiums on fixed-income securities and discounts on non-distressed fixed-income securities are amortized and recorded within interest income in the consolidated statement of operations.
The Fund may enter into derivative contracts for hedging purposes or to gain synthetic exposures to certain investments (“Derivatives”). Derivatives are financial instruments whose values are based on an underlying asset, index, or reference rate and include futures, swaps, swaptions, options, or other financial instruments with similar characteristics.
The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted valuation policies and procedures for the Fund and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for fair value determinations to the Adviser, the Fund's "Valuation Designee" (as such term is defined in Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act).
Fund Valuation: Class I and Class A-2 Shares are offered at NAV. The NAV per share of each class is determined daily. The Fund's NAV per share is calculated by subtracting liabilities (including accrued expenses and indebtedness) from the total assets of the Fund (the value of the investments plus cash or other assets, including interest accrued but not yet received). The Fund's NAV is then allocated pro-rata between the share classes, adjusting for share class specific liabilities. The NAV of each share class is then divided by the total number of Shares outstanding of each share class at each day's end.
Federal Income Taxes: The Fund has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the ‘‘Code’’). The Fund intends to elect to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (a ‘‘RIC’’) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the ‘‘Code’’) . As a RIC, the Fund generally will not have to pay Fund-level federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that the Fund distributes to shareholders from our tax earnings and profits.
For the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Fund did not have a tax liability. The Fund files U.S. federal, state, and local tax returns as required. The Fund’s tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return for federal purposes and four years for most state returns.
Distributions to Shareholders: The Fund intends to declare and pay substantially all of its net investment income to shareholders in the form of dividends on a quarterly basis. The Fund also intends to distribute substantially all net realized capital gains at least annually.
NOTE 3. PORTFOLIO VALUATION
ASC 820 Fair Value Measurement defines fair value as an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value and maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by prioritizing the use of the most observable input when available.
Valuation inputs broadly refer to the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. ASC 820 distinguishes between: (i) observable inputs, which are based on market data obtained from parties independent of the reporting entity, and (ii) unobservable inputs, which reflect the Adviser’s own assumptions about the judgments market participants would use. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is deemed significant to the fair value measurement. When a valuation uses multiple inputs from varying levels of the fair value hierarchy, the hierarchy level is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Level 1 – | Inputs that are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |
Level 2 – | Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) that are observable, either directly or indirectly. | |
Level 3 – | Inputs that are unobservable and reflect the Adviser’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. This includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. |
Generally, the Fund expects to be able to obtain pricing from independent third-party sources on many of its investments. However, in certain circumstances where such inputs are difficult or impractical to obtain we may fair value certain investments using internal manager marks. As of April 30, 2024, 4.28% of the investments held by the Fund were valued using internal manager marks.
The following factors may be pertinent in determining fair value: security covenants, call protection provisions and information rights; cash flows, the nature and realizable value of any collateral; the debt instrument's ability to make payments; the principal markets and financial environment in which the debt instrument operates; publicly available financial ratios of peer companies; changes in interest rates for similar debt instruments; and enterprise values, among other relevant factors.

1WS Credit Income Fund | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements |
April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have readily available market quotations, the fair value of these investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had such market quotations existed for such investments, and any such differences could be material. Accordingly, under current accounting standards, the notes to the Fund’s consolidated financial statements will refer to the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on the Fund’s financial statements.
The following tables summarize the Fund’s financial instruments classified as assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy as of April 30, 2024:

The Fund anticipates that many Credit Investments will be rated below investment grade by rating agencies or would be rated below investment grade if they were rated. Credit Investments that are rated below investment grade (commonly referred to as ‘‘high yield’’ securities or ‘‘junk bonds’’) are regarded as having predominantly speculative characteristics with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal.
In seeking to achieve the Fund’s objective, the Fund may also invest a portion of its net assets in (i) U.S. and foreign government obligations, and highly-rated debt instruments (e.g., commercial paper); and (ii) long and short positions in public or private equity securities, which can include ETFs and real estate investment trusts.
The Fund intends to add leverage to its portfolio through direct borrowing and/or through entering into reverse repurchase agreements. Certain of the Fund’s investments may require leverage to achieve the desired risk-adjusted return profile deployed by the Fund.
At any given time, a substantial portion of our portfolio may be illiquid, subjecting the Fund to increased credit risk. If a borrower or obligor or other counterparty on an instrument underlying a Credit Investment is unable to make its payments, we may be greatly limited in our ability to recover any outstanding principal and interest (or other applicable amounts) under such Credit Investment. Our Shares therefore should be purchased only by investors who could afford a possible substantial loss of their investment. There is no geographic or currency limitation on the securities or instruments acquired by the Fund. The Fund may purchase debt or equity securities of non-U.S. governments and corporate entities domiciled outside of the United States, including emerging markets issuers.
NOTE 7. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Fund may enter into derivative transactions in connection with its investing activities. These instruments derive their value, primarily or partially, from the underlying asset, indices, reference rate, or a combination of these factors. Derivatives are subject to various risks similar to non-derivative instruments, such as interest, market, and credit risk.
The Fund is subject to interest rate exposures, both directly and indirectly. Direct interest rate exposure can result from holding fixed rate bonds, the value of which may decrease if interest rates rise. Additionally, indirect interest rate exposure can result from certain securitization transactions that contain mismatches between the rate of interest earned on the underlying loans and/or receivables as compared to the rate of interest due on the securities. To hedge this risk for cases in which the Fund deems it effective, the Fund may enter into futures contracts, interest rate swaps, other interest rate options, or securities sold, not yet purchased.
The Fund is also subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. In addition to the specific credit risk, in particular investment securities, the Fund is exposed to broader market credit risk. To hedge this risk, the Fund may enter into a variety of instruments, including credit default swaps, futures, options, and swaptions.
The market value of derivative instruments generally may change in a manner that amplify market movements relative to the underlying asset or reference rate. As a result of adverse market movements, the Fund’s derivatives instruments could cause the Fund to suffer losses that magnify the market value changes of the underlying asset or reference rate. This use of embedded leverage allows the Fund to increase its market value exposure relative to its net assets and can substantially increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance.
Additionally, in instances where the Fund is using derivatives to hedge risk exposures held by the Fund, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected relative to the Fund positions intended to be hedged which could result in losses for the hedged positions.
Derivatives are also subject to the risk of possible regulatory changes which could adversely affect the availability and performance of derivative securities, make them more costly and limit or restrict their use by the Fund, which could prevent the Fund from implementing its investment strategies and adversely affect returns.
Futures Contracts: Futures contracts are commitments to either purchase or sell a financial instrument or commodity at a future date for a specified price. Upon entering into futures contracts, the Fund is required to deposit with the broker, either in cash or securities, an initial margin in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. Subsequent changes in market value of the contract (which may require additional margin to be deposited) are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized gains or losses.
The Fund may use futures contracts to hedge against changes in the value of financial instruments or changes in interest rates. Upon entering into such futures contracts, the Fund bears the risk of interest rates or financial instruments’ prices moving adversely to the positions. With futures, counterparty risk is mitigated as these contracts are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse guarantees against non-performance by the counterparty.

Credit Default Swaps and Credit Default Tranches: In a typical credit default swap, the Fund receives (if a buyer) or provides (if a seller) protection against certain credit events involving one or more specified reference entities. The buyer of a credit default swap is generally obligated to pay the seller a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract in return for a contingent payment upon the occurrence of a defined credit event on the reference obligation which may be a single security, a basket of securities, or a specified credit index. The applicable credit events are established at the inception of the transaction and generally include bankruptcy, insolvency, and failure to meet payment obligations when due, among other events. After a credit event occurs, the contingent payment payable by the seller to the buyer may be mitigated or reduced by segregated collateral and netting arrangements between the counterparties to the transaction.
A credit default tranche is a type of credit default swap that allows an investor to gain exposure to a particular portion of the loss distribution on a specified credit index. Tranches are defined by attachment and detachment points that specify the range of exposure to which an investor is receiving or providing protection with respect to the specified credit index.
The Fund may enter into credit default swaps or credit default tranches to hedge against changes in the value of, or to gain exposure to, the market, certain sectors of the market, or specific issuers. Upon the occurrence of a defined credit event, the difference between the value of the reference obligation and the swap’s notional amount is recorded as realized gain or loss. Upon entering into a credit default swap, as a seller of protection or a buyer of protection, the Fund bears exposure to changes in market pricing of risk related to the reference obligations. Additionally, the Fund is exposed to counterparty risk to the extent the fair value of the credit default swap exceeds the collateral posted. Credit default swaps are either centrally cleared swaps or executed bilaterally under standard form ISDA master agreements entered into with each counterparty.
Centrally Cleared Swaps are marked to market daily based upon valuations as determined from the underlying contract or in accordance with the requirements of the central counterparty or derivatives clearing organization. Changes in market value, if any, are reflected as a component of net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Daily changes in valuation of centrally cleared swaps, if any, are disclosed within variation margin receivable/payable on centrally cleared swap contracts on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Centrally Cleared and OTC swap payments received or paid at the beginning of the measurement period are included on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities and represent premiums paid or received upon entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between the stated terms of the swap agreement and prevailing market conditions (credit spreads, currency exchange rates, interest rates, and other relevant factors). Upfront premiums received (paid) are initially recorded as liabilities (assets) and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the swap. These upfront premiums are recorded as realized gain (loss) on the Consolidated Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain (loss) on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by a Fund are included as part of realized gain (loss) on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. For credit default swap contracts, the upfront payments serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. The fair value of a credit default swap contract represents the amount of upfront payment that would be required to enter into such swap as of a measurement date. Upfront payments vary inversely to the price of debt issued by the reference entity. Increasing fair values for credit default swap contracts, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the market pricing of the reference entity’s debt.
The following is a summary of the derivative instruments fair value and the location and effect of derivative instruments held directly by the Fund for the six months ended April 30, 2024:

April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
The average short notional value and number of short futures contracts outstanding during the six months ended April 30, 2024 was $ 66,037,119 and 644, respectively. The average notional value of credit default swap contracts related to the sale protection outstanding during the six months ended April 30, 2024 was ( $13,833,227). The average notional value of interest rate swap contracts outstanding during the six months ended April 30, 2024 was $47,936,000.
Offsetting Arrangements: Certain derivative contracts and reverse repurchase agreements are executed under standardized netting agreements. A netting arrangement creates an enforceable right of set-off that becomes effective, and affects the realization of settlement on individual assets, liabilities and collateral amounts, only following a specified event of default or early termination. Default events may include the failure to make payments or deliver securities timely, material adverse changes in financial condition or insolvency, the breach of minimum regulatory capital requirements, or loss of license, charter or other legal authorization necessary to perform under the contract. These agreements mitigate counterparty credit risk by providing for a single net settlement with a counterparty of all financial transactions covered by the agreement in an event of default as defined under such agreement. The Fund invests in futures, interest rate swaps and credit default swaps that are centrally cleared and not subject to master netting agreements, thus are not included on the tables below.

NOTE 8. LEVERAGE
The Fund may obtain leverage in seeking to achieve its investment objective, including obtaining financing to make investments in Credit Investments. The Fund may obtain leverage through direct borrowing and/or through entering into reverse repurchase agreements.
In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Fund delivers a security in exchange for cash to a financial institution, the counterparty, with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same or substantially the same security at an agreed upon price and date. Reverse repurchase agreements are generally recorded at their contractual amounts, including accrued interest, as specified in each respective agreement. Securities sold are held on terms that may permit the counterparty to sell or re-pledge the securities subject to certain limitations. Such securities sold are held as collateral and are generally valued daily by the counterparty. The Fund may be required to deliver additional collateral or may demand the counterparty to return collateral pledged, as deemed necessary to ensure that the fair value of the underlying collateral remains sufficient to cover the contractual amount. Cash received in exchange for securities delivered plus accrued interest payments to be made by the Fund to counterparties are reflected as a liability on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Interest payments made by the Fund to counterparties are recorded as a component of interest expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The total amount of securities pledged, or partially pledged, at April 30, 2024 was $38,821,266. During the six months ended April 30, 2024 , the average amount of reverse repurchase agreements outstanding was $49,026,585, at a weighted average interest rate of 6.61%.
The following table indicates the total amount of reverse repurchase agreements, including accrued interest, reconciled to the Fund’s liability as of April 30, 2024 :
30-90 days | Greater than 90 days | Total | ||||||||||
Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities | $ | 9,208,633 | $ | 4,906,782 | $ | 14,115,415 | ||||||

* | The total reverse repurchase agreement balance of $28,569,792 has financing with extendable provisions that automatically renew per the respective reverse repurchase agreements. |
Leverage can have the effect of magnifying the Fund’s exposure to changes in the value of its assets and may also result in increased volatility in the Fund’s NAV. This means the Fund will have the potential for greater gains, as well as the potential for greater losses, than if the Fund owned its assets on an unleveraged basis. The value of an investment in the Fund will be more volatile and other risks tend to be compounded if and to the extent that the Fund is exposed to leverage directly or indirectly.
NOTE 9. REPURCHASE OFFERS
The Fund is an interval fund and, as such, has adopted a fundamental policy to make quarterly repurchase offers at a price equal to the NAV per Share as of the Repurchase Pricing Date (i.e., the date that will be used to determine the Fund’s NAV applicable to the repurchase offer), of between 5% and 25% of the Shares outstanding. Subject to applicable law and approval of the Board, for each quarterly repurchase offer, the Fund currently expects to offer to repurchase 5% of the Fund’s outstanding Shares at NAV, which is the minimum amount permitted. The Fund will make quarterly repurchase offers in the months of March, June, September and December. There is no guarantee that shareholders will be able to sell all of the shares they desire in a repurchase offer because shareholders, in total, may wish to sell more than the percentage of the Fund’s Shares being repurchased.

NOTE 10. PRINCIPAL RISKS
In the normal course of business, the Fund invests in financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss may exist from things such as changes in the market (market risk) or failure or inability of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risk). See below for a detailed description of select principal risks. For a more comprehensive list of potential risks the Fund may be subject to, please refer to the Fund’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”).
Investment and Market Risk: The Fund may invest in credit-sensitive investments. Until such investments are sold or mature, the Fund is exposed to risks, including interest rate and spread risks, as well as credit and structural risks relating to whether the cash flows from the underlying assets will be sufficient in amount and timing to make expected payments on the securities. The Adviser monitors the risk parameters and expected volatility of the Fund’s overall portfolio and attempts to manage concentrations of the portfolio in any particular investment holding, strategy, or market. Additionally, the Adviser seeks to control portfolio risks through selective sizing of positions based on a regular evaluation of each investment’s risk and reward characteristics. Regular mark-to-market portfolio monitoring helps the Adviser monitor the investments. The Adviser has also developed a proprietary risk management system and uses statistical and cash flow models to monitor portfolio risk, as well as individual position specific risk.
While the Adviser generally seeks to hedge certain portfolio risks, the Adviser will not, in general, attempt to hedge all market, interest rate or other risks in the portfolio, and it may elect to only partially hedge certain risks. Specifically, the Adviser may determine that it is economically unattractive, or otherwise undesirable, to hedge certain risks and instead may rely on diversification to offset such risks.
Repurchase Offers Risk: An investment in the Fund is suitable only for long-term investors who can bear the risks associated with the limited liquidity of the Shares. The Fund is an “interval fund” and, in order to provide liquidity to shareholders, the Fund, subject to applicable law, will conduct repurchase offers of the Fund’s outstanding Shares at NAV, subject to approval of the Board. The Fund believes that these repurchase offers are generally beneficial to the Fund’s shareholders, and repurchases generally will be funded from available cash, cash from the sale of Shares or sales of portfolio securities. However, repurchase offers and the need to fund repurchase obligations may affect the ability of the Fund to be fully invested or force the Fund to maintain a higher percentage of its assets in liquid investments, which may harm the Fund’s investment performance. Moreover, diminution in the size of the Fund through repurchases may result in untimely sales of portfolio securities (with associated imputed transaction costs, which may be significant), and may limit the ability of the Fund to participate in new investment opportunities or to achieve its investment objective. The Fund may accumulate cash by holding back (i.e., not reinvesting) payments received in connection with the Fund’s investments and cash from the sale of Shares. The Fund believes that it can meet the maximum potential amount of the Fund’s repurchase obligations. If at any time cash and other liquid assets held by the Fund are not sufficient to meet the Fund’s repurchase obligations, the Fund intends, if necessary, to sell investments. In addition, if the Fund borrows to finance repurchases, interest on that borrowing will negatively affect shareholders who do not tender their Shares by increasing the Fund’s expenses and reducing any net investment income.
Leverage Risk: Under current market conditions, the Fund may utilize leverage principally through outstanding senior securities representing indebtedness (“Borrowings”). The Fund may obtain leverage through direct borrowing and/or through entering into reverse repurchase agreements that create leverage. Reverse repurchase agreements are agreements in which a Fund sells a security to a counterparty, such as a bank or broker-dealer, in return for cash and agrees to repurchase that security at a mutually agreed upon price and time. Reverse repurchase agreements carry the risk that the market value of the security sold by the Fund may decline in value, requiring the Fund to post the additional collateral or to repurchase the security. Reverse repurchase agreements also may be viewed as a form of borrowing, and borrowed assets used for investment creates leverage risk. Leverage can create an interest expense that may lower the Fund’s overall returns. Leverage presents the opportunity for increased net income and capital gains, but may also exaggerate the Fund’s volatility and risk of loss.
Counterparty Credit Risk: The Fund attempts to control credit risk exposure to trading counterparties and brokers through internal monitoring procedures. A significant portion of the Fund’s positions, including cash, are held at major financial institutions. All security transactions of the Fund are transacted with approved brokers and cleared through major securities firms. In the event the brokers are unable to fulfill their obligations, the Fund could be subject to credit risk.
A primary difference in risks associated with bilateral OTC contracts and exchange-traded contracts/centrally cleared swaps involves the nature of credit and liquidity risks. Unlike exchange-traded instruments or centrally cleared swaps, in which performance may be backed by the exchange or clearing corporation, bilateral OTC contracts require the performance of a specific counterparty and it’s posting of collateral. In the event of a default by such counterparty, the Fund could be exposed to potential losses. The Fund seeks to reduce its credit risk on bilateral OTC contracts by only transacting with high credit-standing counterparties. In addition, the Fund further mitigates the risk of counterparty non- performance by requiring counterparties to pledge cash and/or securities to collateralize unrealized gains on bilateral OTC contracts, in accordance with the terms of International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) agreements.

1WS Credit Income Fund | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements |
April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
Liquidity Risk: The Fund needs cash liquidity in order to settle trading obligations, meet margin calls on derivatives, meeting margin calls and repayments on maturing financial arrangements, and meet repurchase offers. The Adviser actively monitors and manages the current and future sources of and draws on liquidity (cash and cash equivalents) as well as liquid securities.
Credit Risk: Credit risk is the risk that the value of debt securities in the Fund’s portfolio may decline because the issuer may default and fail to pay interest or repay principal when due. Rating agencies assign credit ratings to debt securities to indicate their credit risk. Lower rated or unrated debt securities held by the Fund may present increased credit risk as compared to higher-rated debt securities.
Non-Diversified Fund Risk: The Fund is classified as “non-diversified” under the 1940 Act. As a result, the Fund can invest a greater portion of its assets in obligations of a single issuer than a “diversified” fund. The Fund may therefore be more susceptible than a diversified fund to being adversely affected by any single corporate, economic, political or regulatory occurrence.
Interest Rate Risk: Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect the value of financial instruments. The Fund may be exposed to risks associated with the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of market interest rates on their financial position and cash flows. The Fund may be exposed to interest rate risk as a result of mismatches or gaps in the amounts of assets and liabilities that mature or reprice in a given period.
Foreign Currency Risk: The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in non-U.S. currencies, or in instruments denominated in non-U.S. currencies, the prices of which are determined with reference to currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. The Fund, however, values its securities and other assets in U.S. Dollars. The Fund generally seeks to hedge its foreign currency exposure. To the extent the Fund’s investments in foreign currency exposure are not hedged, the value of the Fund’s assets will fluctuate with U.S. Dollar exchange rates as well as the price changes of the Fund’s investments in the various local markets and currencies.
CDO and CLO Risk: The Fund may invest in CDOs and/or CLOs which are subject to the following risks: (i) distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) CDOs and/or CLOs typically will have no significant underlying assets other than their underlying debt obligations or loans and payments on the CDOs and/or CLOs are and will be payable solely from the cash flows from such debt obligations and/or loans; (iv) CDOs and/or CLOs are typically highly levered, and therefore the CDO and/or CLO interests that the Fund may invest in are subject to a higher risk of total loss; (v) investments in CDOs and/or CLOs may be riskier and less transparent to the Fund and its shareholders than direct investments in the underlying companies; (vi) the potential for interruption and deferral of cash flow to Fund investments in the equity and junior debt tranches of CDOs and/or CLOs; (vii) interests in CDOs and/or CLOs may be illiquid; (viii) investments in foreign CDOs and/or CLOs may involve significant risks in addition to the risks inherent in U.S. CDOs and/or CLOs; (ix) the Fund may invest with collateral managers that have no or limited performance or operating history; (x) the inability of a CDO or CLO collateral manager to reinvest the proceeds of any prepayments may adversely affect the Fund; (xi) the loans underlying the CDOs and/or CLOs may be sold and replaced resulting in a loss to the Fund; (xii) the Fund may not have direct rights against the underlying borrowers or obligors comprising the CDOs and/or CLOs’ investments or the entities that sponsored the CDOs and/or CLOs; and (xiii) investments in junior tranches of CDOs and/or CLOs will likely be subordinate to the other debt tranches of such CDOs and/or CLOs, and are subject to a higher degree of risk of total loss.
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (“CMBS”) and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (“RMBS”) Risk: CMBS and RMBS are mortgage-backed securities that may be secured by interests in a single commercial or residential mortgage loan or a pool of mortgage loans secured by commercial or residential property. CMBS and RMBS may be senior, subordinate, interest-only, principal-only, investment-grade, non-investment grade or unrated. The Fund may acquire CMBS and RMBS from private originators as well as from other mortgage loan investors, including savings and loan associations, mortgage bankers, commercial banks, finance companies and investment banks. The credit quality of any CMBS and RMBS issue depends primarily on the credit quality of the underlying mortgage loans. At any one time, a portfolio of mortgage-backed securities may be backed by commercial or residential mortgage loans with disproportionately large aggregate principal amounts secured by properties in only a few states or regions. As a result, the commercial or residential mortgage loans may be more susceptible to geographic risks relating to such areas, such as adverse economic conditions, adverse events affecting industries located in such areas and natural hazards affecting such areas, than would be the case for a pool of mortgage loans having more diverse property locations.
