Frost Growth Equity Fund, Institutional Class Shares | $76 | 0.67% |
How did the Fund perform in the last year?
For fiscal year 2024, the Frost Growth Equity Fund, Institutional Class posted a gain of 27.87%. Outperforming its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, by 93 basis points, and its large growth peer group by 433 basis points. The Russell 1000 Growth Index remains more concentrated than the average Large Cap Growth Fund, often experiencing large relative swings based on a few (mega cap) stocks. Relative to our actively managed large growth peer group, the Fund ranked in the top quartile over the period.
Stock selection drove the Fund's performance, with consumer discretionary, communication services and health care as the top contributors, technology and industrials detracted the most. Sector allocation was an immaterial contributor.
In consumer discretionary, an underweight in Tesla and overweight in Amazon and Chipotle Mexican Grill were notable contributors. Tesla cut prices significantly to maintain volume targets, but vehicle sales have not recovered. What was formerly a 50% volume grower is struggling to stay flat. While we believe Tesla will remain a leader in electric vehicles, the stock looks expensive, and we maintain the position as a sizeable underweight in the Fund. Amazon was one of the top contributors driven by the uplift in tech stocks, profit and cash flow growth from cost management and interest in AI/data centers. Amazon was up almost 40% over the 12-month period.
In communication services, our investment in Spotify Technology was a solid contributor for the year. The stock benefitted from solid user growth, cost management, higher pricing and solidifying market leadership. Spotify, increasingly, controls its own destiny as its platform has grown and has branched out to podcasts and audiobooks. Revenue growth should be double digits for the next couple of years.
In health care, Eli Lilly, our top contributor for the year across sectors, rose 78% after a strong return last year. Lilly’s Mounjaro/Zepbound in diabesity is on pace to triple its revenues to more than $15 billion this year. More growth is expected before the end of the decade. Lilly has the most in-depth pipeline in diabesity with multiple follow-on molecules in the clinic currently. Lilly and Novo Nordisk will likely split this market, with a potential size in excess of $150 billion.
On the downside, relative performance in the technology sector was affected by an underweight in Broadcom and to a lesser extent, an underweight position in Apple. We believe Apple is one of the highest quality companies in the market and we have owned the stock for the past 15 years. However, we are underweight relative to the benchmark as we believe the valuation already reflects the quality and the growth prospects of the business. Software companies Microsoft and ServiceNow and the semiconductor company Advanced Micro Devices contributed positively to stock selection in the sector.

How did the Fund perform in the last year?
• The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the AGG) returned 5.10% over the year. The Frost Total Return Bond Fund (Institutional Share Class) returned 11.34% for the same period, bettering the benchmark by over 6.0%.
• Broadly, the Fund obtained outperformance relative to its benchmark from each of the four primary decisions the portfolio team utilizes – interest rate decisions, credit risk allocations, asset sector allocations and security selection.
• The Fund maintained its effective duration – a measure of interest rate risk – between 3.20% and 5.40% with the lower end of the range early in the year and increasing steadily throughout the year and finishing close to the high end of the range at the end of July 2024.
• With the benchmark’s average duration approximately 6.25%, the Fund’s underweight duration allocation resulted in positive outperformance relative to the benchmark. The primary benefit to the Fund’s interest rate profile, compared to the index, was the rise in yields for maturities over ten years due to the yield curve inversion. The Fund was strategically positioned throughout the year to take advantage of further yield curve inversion. The allocation to credit resulted in outperformance relative to the index as the credit markets outperformed U.S. government sectors. Risk asset sectors generally benefited from economic and credit cycle performance. The Fund throughout the year was slightly overweight the below investment grade securities and underweight government securities.
• The Fund outperformed due to individual security selection across several sectors. Individual security selection was the largest positive attribution metric relative to the benchmark during the year.
• The Fund held an average allocation of 5% to energy over the year. This resulted in positive relative performance. Several of the Fund’s oil holdings saw significant outperformance. The Fund held underweight allocations to Treasury, corporate and RMBS sectors and overweight ABS, CMBS and CLOs. Each of these sector allocations aided the Fund’s relative performance to the benchmark, even before any consideration to security selection.
• The Fund’s average allocations during the year were 29% Treasurys, 21% corporates, 17% RMBS, 10% CLOs, 10% ABS, and 6% CMBS.

How did the Fund perform in the last year?
• The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the AGG) returned 5.10% over the year. The Frost Total Return Bond Fund (A Class Shares) returned 10.96% for the same period, bettering the benchmark by 5.86%.
• Broadly, the Fund obtained outperformance relative to its benchmark from each of the four primary decisions the portfolio team utilizes – interest rate decisions, credit risk allocations, asset sector allocations and security selection.
• The Fund maintained its effective duration – a measure of interest rate risk – between 3.20% and 5.40% with the lower end of the range early in the year and increasing steadily throughout the year and finishing close to the high end of the range at the end of July 2024.
• With the benchmark’s average duration approximately 6.25%, the Fund’s underweight duration allocation resulted in positive outperformance relative to the benchmark. The primary benefit to the Fund’s interest rate profile, compared to the index, was the rise in yields for maturities over ten years due to the yield curve inversion. The Fund was strategically positioned throughout the year to take advantage of further yield curve inversion.The allocation to credit resulted in outperformance relative to the index as the credit markets outperformed U.S. government sectors. Risk asset sectors generally benefited from economic and credit cycle performance. The Fund throughout the year was slightly overweight the below investment grade securities and underweight government securities.
• The Fund outperformed due to individual security selection across several sectors. Individual security selection was the largest positive attribution metric relative to the benchmark during the year.
• The Fund held an average allocation of 5% to energy over the year. This resulted in positive relative performance. Several of the Fund’s oil holdings saw significant outperformance. The Fund held underweight allocations to Treasury, corporate and RMBS sectors and overweight ABS, CMBS and CLOs. Each of these sector allocations aided the Fund’s relative performance to the benchmark, even before any consideration to security selection.
• The Fund’s average allocations during the year were 29% Treasurys, 21% corporates, 17% RMBS, 10% CLOs, 10% ABS, and 6% CMBS.

Frost Credit Fund, Institutional Class Shares | $74 | 0.70% |
How did the Fund perform in the last year?
• The Fund’s hybrid benchmark (50% Bloomberg U.S. Credit Index/50% Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Index) returned 8.79% for the year. The Fund returned 11.30% over the same period (the Institutional Share Class), representing a 2.51% of outperformance.
• The Fund was underweight interest rate risk throughout the year by maintaining its overall effective duration less than that of the benchmark. However, the Fund was also positioned for an expectation of a steeper yield curve (i.e., increasing yields as bond maturities increase) as the year progressed.
• The Fund’s effective duration was between 2.50% and 3.50%, with the low end of the range occurring early in the year and the high end of the range closer to the end of the year. This is compared to the 5.0% effective duration of the benchmark.
• Overall, the Fund saw very little overall performance attribution relative to the benchmark due to its interest rate risk profile. Overall Treasury yields declined somewhat over the year (for example the five-year Treasury Note yield decreased 4.25% to 3.75% in the year) but the yield curve steepened marginally as yields for shorter maturities declined and longer maturities increased. The Fund saw slight underperformance due to the shift in the yield curve but a largely offsetting outperformance in the yield curve twisting steeper as expected. These two interest rate profiles largely offset one another leading to very little performance attribution (positive or negative) for the Fund relative to the benchmark for the full year.
• The Fund was overweight the securitized market sectors (ABS, CMBS and CLOs) and underweight the investment-grade and high-yield corporate sector. These allocation positions resulted in relative outperformance as all three sectors delivered total returns over 12.0% in the year. The CLO sector delivered the best returns with almost 14.0% returns.
• The Fund was underweight credit risk such as high-yield sector, resulting in slight relative underperformance. Riskier sectors such as high yield outperformed during the year.
• The Fund slightly outperformed due to positive security selection. The Fund obtained slightly less than 1.0% of relative outperformance in the year based on security selection.

Frost Credit Fund, A Class Shares | $100 | 0.95% |
How did the Fund perform in the last year?
• The Fund’s hybrid benchmark (50% Bloomberg U.S. Credit Index/50% Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Index) returned 8.79% for the year. The Fund returned 10.94% over the same period (the A Share Class), representing a 2.15% of outperformance.
• The Fund was underweight interest rate risk throughout the year by maintaining its overall effective duration less than that of the benchmark. However, the Fund was also positioned for an expectation of a steeper yield curve (i.e., increasing yields as bond maturities increase) as the year progressed.
• The Fund’s effective duration was between 2.50% and 3.50%, with the low end of the range occurring early in the year and the high end of the range closer to the end of the year. This is compared to the 5.0% effective duration of the benchmark.
• Overall, the Fund saw very little overall performance attribution relative to the benchmark due to its interest rate risk profile. Overall Treasury yields declined somewhat over the year (for example the five-year Treasury Note yield decreased 4.25% to 3.75% in the year) but the yield curve steepened marginally as yields for shorter maturities declined and longer maturities increased. The Fund saw slight underperformance due to the shift in the yield curve but a largely offsetting outperformance in the yield curve twisting steeper as expected. These two interest rate profiles largely offset one another leading to very little performance attribution (positive or negative) for the Fund relative to the benchmark for the full year.
• The Fund was overweight the securitized market sectors (ABS, CMBS and CLOs) and underweight the investment-grade and high-yield corporate sector. These allocation positions resulted in relative outperformance as all three sectors delivered total returns over 12.0% in the year. The CLO sector delivered the best returns with almost 14.0% returns.
• The Fund was underweight credit risk such as high-yield sector, resulting in slight relative underperformance. Riskier sectors such as high yield outperformed during the year.
• The Fund slightly outperformed due to positive security selection. The Fund obtained slightly less than 1.0% of relative outperformance in the year based on security selection.

Frost Low Duration Bond Fund, Institutional Class Shares | $47 | 0.45% |
How did the Fund perform in the last year?
• The Bloomberg U.S. Government Credit One to Five Year Bond Index returned 5.83% during the year that ended July 31, 2024. The Frost Low Duration Bond Fund (Institutional Share Class) returned 6.94% over the same period, outperformance of 1.10%.
• The Fund maintained an underweight allocation to interest rate risk, with an effective duration profile of between 2.0% and 2.40% compared to the benchmark’s average duration of approximately 2.65%.
• Short-term interest rates, while volatile, finished the year ever so slightly lower than where they began the year as the Federal Reserve largely made no significant changes to monetary policy and the US economy remained solid.
• In turn, the Fund saw little relative performance attribution (neither positive nor negative) from its interest rate profile compared to its benchmark.
• The Fund’s primary relative outperformance was positive sector allocations. The Fund held a meaningful overweight to the ABS sector (40%) and an underweight to the Treasury sector (26%). The ABS sector during the year meaningfully outperformed, before taking into account security selection, both the investment grade corporate and the Treasury sectors. The Treasury sector delivered the lowest aggregate returns as well. Overall, the Fund obtained approximately 1.0% of its outperformance relative to the benchmark from these sector allocation decisions.
• The Fund obtained approximately 0.25% of outperformance do to solid individual security selection in the year. Most of these results came in the Fund’s investment grade corporate sector.

How did the Fund perform in the last year?
The Fund returned 1.74% (Institutional Share Class) during the year compared to 3.74% for the benchmark, the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index. The primary underperformance characteristic for the Fund in the year was its meaningful underweight to long-maturity (i.e., bonds with ten years and great maturities) securities as these sectors outperformed. The Fund allocated on average less than 15% to securities over ten-year maturities compared to the benchmark of close to 45%. This long maturity sector of the benchmark delivered returns of close to 5%. Additionally, the Fund held a meaningful allocation to cash during the last few months of the year in preparation for its permanent closing.

Fund Name | Costs of a $10,000 investment | Costs paid as a percentage of a $10,000 investment |

Frost Municipal Bond Fund, Investor Class Shares | $124 | 1.23% |
How did the Fund perform in the last year?
The Fund returned 1.44% (Investor Share Class) during the year compared to 3.74% for the benchmark, the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index. The primary under performance characteristic for the Fund in the year was its meaningful underweight to long-maturity (i.e., bonds with ten years and great maturities) securities as these sectors outperformed. The Fund allocated on average less than 15% to securities over ten-year maturities compared to the benchmark of close to 45%. This long maturity sector of the benchmark delivered returns of close to 5%. Additionally, the Fund held a meaningful allocation to cash during the last few months of the year in preparation for its permanent closing.

(b) Not applicable.
Item 2. Code of Ethics.
The Registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the Registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, controller or principal accounting officer, and any person who performs a similar function. There have been no amendments to or waivers granted to this code of ethics during the period covered by this report.
Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.
(a)(1) The Registrant’s board of trustees has determined that the Registrant has at least one audit committee financial expert serving on the audit committee.
(a) (2) The Registrant’s audit committee financial expert is Robert Mulhall, and is considered to be “independent,” as that term is defined in Form N-CSR Item 3(a)(2).
Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
Fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP (“E&Y”) relate to the Frost Family of Funds (the “Trust”).
E&Y billed the Trust aggregate fees for services rendered to the Trust for the last two fiscal years as follows:
| FYE July 31, 2024 | FYE July 31, 2023 |
| | All fees and services to the Trust that were pre-approved | All fees and services to service affiliates that were pre-approved | All other fees and services to service affiliates that did not require pre-approval | All fees and services to the Trust that were pre-approved | All fees and services to service affiliates that were pre-approved | All other fees and services to service affiliates that did not require pre-approval |
(a) | Audit Fees(1) | $259,200 | None | None | $272,400 | None | None |
(b) | Audit-Related Fees | None | None | None | None | None | None |
(c) | Tax Fees | None | None | None | None | None | None |
(d) | All Other Fees | None | None | None | None | None | None |
Notes:
| (1) | Audit fees include amounts related to the audit of the Trust’s annual financial statements and services normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings. |
(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 it’s 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.
(e)(2) Percentage of fees billed by E&Y applicable to non-audit services pursuant to the “de minimis” exception of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) were as follows:
| FYE July 31, 2024 | FYE July 31, 2023 |
Audit-Related Fees | None | None |
Tax Fees | None | None |
All Other Fees | None | None |
(f) Not applicable.
(g) The aggregate non-audit fees and services billed by E&Y for services rendered to the Registrant, and rendered to the Registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant for the last two fiscal-years-ended July 31st were $16,000 and $14,500 for 2024 and 2023, respectively.
(h) During the past fiscal year, all non-audit services provided by Registrant’s principal accountant to either the Registrant’s investment adviser or to any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Registrant’s investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant were pre-approved by the Audit Committee of Registrant’s Board of Trustees. Included in the Audit Committee’s pre-approval of these non-audit service were the review and consideration as to whether the provision of these non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence
(i) Not applicable. The Registrant has not retained, for the preparation of the audit report on the financial statements included in the Form N-CSR, a registered public accounting firm that has a branch or office that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) has determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in the foreign jurisdiction.
(j) Not applicable. The Registrant is not a “foreign issuer,” as defined in 17 CFR 240.3b-4.
Item 5. Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.
Not applicable to open-end management investment companies.
Item 6. Schedule of Investments.
(a) The Schedule of Investments is included as part of the Financial Statements and Other Information filed under Item 7 of this form.

Notes to Financial Statements July 31, 2024
1. Organization:
The Frost Family of Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end investment management company established under Delaware law as a Delaware statutory trust under a Declaration of Trust dated December 11, 2018. The Frost Family of Funds include the Frost Growth Equity Fund (the “Growth Equity Fund”), Frost Total Return Bond Fund (the “Total Return Bond Fund”), Frost Credit Fund (the “Credit Fund”), Frost Low Duration Bond Fund (the “Low Duration Bond Fund”), and Frost Municipal Bond Fund (the “Municipal Bond Fund”) (each a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”). With the exception of the Growth Equity Fund, each fund is classified as a “diversified” investment company under the 1940 Act. Effective May 17, 2021, the Growth Equity Fund was reclassified from a “diversified” to a “non-diversified” investment company under the 1940 Act. The Growth Equity Fund seeks to achieve long- term capital appreciation. The Total Return Bond Fund and Low Duration Bond Fund seek to maximize total return, consisting of income and capital appreciation, consistent with the preservation of principal. The Credit Fund seeks to maximize total return, consisting of income and capital appreciation. The Municipal Bond Fund seeks to provide a consistent level of current income exempt from federal income tax with a secondary emphasis on maximizing total return through capital appreciation. The Funds may change their investment objective without shareholder approval. The assets of each Fund of the Trust are segregated, and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. Certain of the Funds currently offer Institutional Class Shares, Investor Class Shares and A Class Shares.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and are presented in U.S. dollars which is the functional currency of the Funds. The Funds are investment companies and therefore apply the accounting and reporting guidance issued by the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies. The following are significant accounting policies which are consistently followed in the preparation of the financial statements.
Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of 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 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 the valuation date (or at approximately 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time if such 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. Debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents, if available. 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 the 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 Trust’s 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

Notes to Financial Statements July 31, 2024
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.
Exchange-traded registered investment companies are valued at the closing price from the primary exchange.
Open-end investment companies held in the Funds’ portfolios are valued at the published net asset value.
Securities for which market prices are not “readily available” are valued in accordance with fair value procedures (the "Fair Value Procedures") established by the Adviser and approved by the Trust's Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated the Adviser as the "valuation designee" to determine the fair value of securities and other instruments for which no readily available market quotations are available. The Fair Value Procedures are implemented through a Fair Value Committee (the “Committee”) of the Adviser.
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. In addition, SEI Investments Global Funds Services (the “Administrator”), a wholly owned subsidiary of SEI Investments Company, monitors price movements among certain selected indices, securities and/or baskets of securities that may be an indicator that the closing prices received earlier from foreign exchanges or markets may not reflect market value at the time a Fund calculates net asset value. If price movements in a monitored index or security exceed levels established by the Administrator, the Administrator notifies the Adviser if a Fund is holding a relevant security that such limits have been exceeded. In such event, the Adviser makes the determination whether a Committee meeting should be called based on the information provided.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Funds disclose 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 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 — Quoted prices which are not active, or inputs that are observable (either directly or indirectly) for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and |
| ● | 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). |

Notes to Financial Statements July 31, 2024
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.
Federal Income Taxes — It is each Fund’s intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Sub- chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income. 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 not deemed to meet the more- likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense 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 last 3 tax year ends, as applicable), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.
As of and during the year ended July 31, 2024, the Funds did not have liabilities for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statement of Operations. During the year ended July 31, 2024, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
The Funds may also be subject to taxes imposed by governments of countries in which they invest. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or repatriated. The Funds accrue and apply such taxes to net investment income, net realized gains and net unrealized gains as income and/or capital gains are earned. In some cases, the Funds may be entitled to reclaim all or a portion of such taxes, and such reclaim amounts, if any, are reflected as an asset on the Funds’ books. In many cases, however, the Funds may not receive such amounts for an extended period of time, depending on the country of investment. Upon the Fund’s receipt of reclaims, the reclaims are recorded as a reduction to foreign taxes withheld.
Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. The Funds or their agent files withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover certain amounts previously withheld. The Funds may record a reclaim receivable based on collectability, which includes factors such as the jurisdiction’s applicable laws, payment history and market convention. Professional fees paid to those that provide assistance in receiving the tax reclaims, which generally are contingent upon successful receipt of reclaimed amounts, are recorded in Professional Fees on the Statements of Operations once the amounts are due. The professional fees related to pursuing these tax reclaims are not subject to the Adviser’s expense limitation agreement.
Security Transactions and Investment Income — Security transactions are accounted for on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sales of investment securities are based on the specific identification method. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, interest income is recognized on an accrual basis and includes the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discount. Realized gains (losses) on paydowns of mortgage-backed and asset- backed securities are recorded as an adjustment to interest income. Litigation income received during the year is recorded as realized gains by the Fund when such information becomes known. Gains of this type are infrequent to the Fund and are not expected to reoccur on a consistent basis.
Repurchase Agreements — In connection with transactions involving repurchase agreements, a third party custodian bank takes possession of the underlying securities (“collateral”), the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. Such collateral will be cash, debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, securities that at the time the repurchase agreement is entered into are rated in the highest category by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”) or unrated category by an NRSRO, as determined by the Adviser. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Funds have the right to liquidate the collateral
34
Notes to Financial Statements July 31, 2024
and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal proceedings.
Futures Contracts — To the extent consistent with its investment objective and strategies, the Fund may use futures contracts for tactical hedging purposes as well as to enhance the Fund’s returns. The Fund’s investments in futures contracts are designed to enable the Fund to more closely approximate the performance of its benchmark indices. Initial margin deposits of cash or securities are made upon entering into futures contracts. The contracts are marked-to-market daily and the resulting changes in value are accounted for as unrealized gains and losses. Variation margin payments are paid or received, depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. When contracts are closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the amount invested in the contract. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there will be an imperfect price correlation between the futures and the underlying securities. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market, resulting in an inability to close a position prior to its maturity date. Finally, futures contracts involve the risk that a Fund could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate a futures transaction.
There were no futures held by the Funds during the period ended and no futures held as of July 31, 2024.
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.
Classes — Class specific expenses are borne by the specific class of shares. Income, realized and unrealized gain (loss), and non-class specific expenses are allocated to the respective class on the basis of relative daily net assets.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders — The Growth Equity Fund distributes its net investment income and makes distributions of its net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. The Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, and Municipal Bond Fund each distribute their net investment income monthly, as available, and make distributions of their net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually.
Interfund Lending — The SEC has granted an exemption that permits the Funds to participate in an interfund lending program (the “Interfund Lending Program”) whereby the Funds may lend money to, and borrow money from, each other for temporary or emergency purposes, subject to certain terms and conditions. Participation in the Interfund Lending Program is voluntary for both borrowing and lending Funds. For the year ended July 31, 2024, the Funds did not participate in the Interfund Lending Program.
3. Transactions with Affiliates:
Certain officers and two trustees of the Trust are also employees of the Adviser, the Administrator, and/or SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the “Distributor”). Such officers and trustees are paid no fees by the Trust for serving as officers and trustees of the Trust. A portion of the services provided by the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) and his staff, whom are the employees of the Administrator, are paid for by the Trust as incurred. The services include regulatory oversight of the Trust’s advisers and service providers as required by SEC regulations. The CCO’s services have been approved by and are reviewed by the Board.
4. Administration, Distribution, Shareholder Servicing, Transfer Agent and Custodian Agreements:
The Funds and the Administrator are parties to an Administration Agreement under which the Administrator provides administrative services to the Fund. For these services, the Administrator is paid an asset-based fee, which will vary depending on the number of share classes and the average daily net assets of the Funds. For the year ended July 31, 2024, the Funds

Notes to Financial Statements July 31, 2024
were charged as follows for these services: $184,800 in the Growth Equity Fund, $2,134,695 in the Total Return Bond Fund, $149,962 in the Credit Fund, $218,699 in the Low Duration Bond Fund, and $12,886 in the Municipal Bond Fund.
The Funds have adopted a Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) for the Investor Class Shares and A Class Shares. Under the Plan, the Distributor, or third parties that enter into agreements with the Distributor, may receive up to 0.25% of each Fund’s average net assets attributable to the Investor Class Shares and A Class Shares as compensation for distribution services.
The Funds have adopted a shareholder servicing plan that provides that the Funds may pay financial intermediaries for shareholder services in an annual amount not to exceed 0.15% based on the average daily net assets of the Funds’ A Class Shares. The services for which financial intermediaries are compensated may include record-keeping, transaction processing for shareholders’ accounts and other shareholder services. For the year ended July 31, 2024, Total Return Bond Fund paid $5,639 for shareholder services.
SS&C Global Investor & Distribution Solutions, Inc. serves as the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent for the Funds under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust. The Funds may earn cash management credits which can be used to offset transfer agent expenses. These credit amounts are listed as “Fees Paid Indirectly” on the Statements of Operations.
Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. serves as Custodian for the Funds. The Custodian plays no role in determining the investment policies of the Funds or which securities are to be purchased or sold by the Funds.
5. Investment Advisory Agreement:
The Adviser serves as the investment adviser to the Funds. The Adviser is a wholly owned non-banking subsidiary of Cullen/ Frost Bankers, Inc. (“Frost Bank”). For its services, the Adviser is entitled to a fee, which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at the following annual rates based on the average daily net assets of each Fund. The Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or reimburse expenses for certain Funds to the extent necessary to keep total annual Fund operating expenses from exceeding certain levels as set forth below until June 24, 2025 (the “Contractual Expense Limitation”) for the Growth Equity Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund and Low Duration Bond Fund. The Adviser is entitled to the same fee for its services to each Fund. In addition, the Adviser agreed to the same Contractual Expense Limitation and Voluntary Expense Limitation, as applicable, for each Fund.
The table below shows the rate of each Fund’s investment advisory fee and the Adviser’s Contractual Expense Limitation for each Fund:
Fund | Advisory Fee Before Contractual Fee Reduction | Institutional Class Shares Contractual Expense Limitation | Investor Class Shares Contractual Expense Limitation* | A Class Shares Contractual Expense Limitation** |

Prior to November 28, 2020, the Adviser had contractually agreed to waive the advisory fee for the Municipal Bond Fund (which was 0.35% at the time) by 0.01% (the “contractual fee reduction”) and had voluntarily agreed to reduce the advisory fee by an additional 0.09% (the “voluntary fee reduction”).
In addition, the Adviser has voluntarily agreed to reduce its fees and/or reimburse expenses of the Frost Municipal Bond Fund to the extent necessary to keep total annual Fund operating expenses (not including excluded expenses) for Institutional Class Shares and Investor Class Shares from exceeding 1.05% (the “voluntary expense limitation”). The Adviser intends to continue

this voluntary expense limitation until further notice, but may discontinue all or part of these fee reductions or expense reimbursements at any time. At July 31, 2024, there were no amounts available for recapture.
If at any point it becomes unnecessary for the Adviser to make Expense Limitation reimbursements, the Adviser may retain the difference between the “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses” and the aforementioned Expense Limitations to recapture all or a portion of its prior Expense Limitation reimbursements made during the preceding three year period up to the expense cap in place at the time the expenses were waived. The Adviser, however, will not be permitted to recapture any amount that is attributable to its Voluntary Fee Reduction. During the year ended July 31, 2024, the Adviser did not recapture previously waived/reimbursed fees for the Funds.

7. 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. generally accepted accounting principles. 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. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, they are charged or credited to distributable earnings or paid-in-capital as appropriate, in the period that the difference arises. The permanent differences primarily consist of reclassification of long term capital gain distribution on REITs (Real Estate Investment Trust), market discount adjustment, amortization adjustment on premium bond sold, gains and losses on paydowns of mortgage and asset-backed securities for tax purposes, defaulted bond adjustment, foreign currency gain/(loss), net operating loss offset to gains, perpetual bond adjustment, and distribution reclassification.
The permanent difference that is credited or charged to Paid-in Capital and Distribute Earnings as of July 31, 2024 is primarily related to tax treatment of gains/ (losses) from securities redeemed in-kind and deemed Distribution to Shareholder redemptions:
| | Paid-in Capital | | | Distributable Earnings (Loss) | |
Frost Growth Equity Fund | | $ | 49,044,806 | | | $ | (49,044,806 | ) |

8. Risks:
As with all mutual funds, there is no guarantee that the Funds will achieve its investment objective. You could lose money by investing in the Funds. A Fund share is not a bank deposit and it is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or any government agency. The principal risks affecting shareholders’ investments in the Funds are set forth below.
Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund): Payment of principal and interest on asset-backed securities is dependent largely on the cash flows generated by the assets backing the securities, and asset-backed securities may not have the benefit of any security interest in the related assets, which raises the possibility that recoveries on repossessed collateral may not be available to support payments on these securities. Asset- backed securities are also subject to the risk that underlying borrowers will be unable to meet their obligations. To lessen the effect of failures by obligors on underlying assets to make payments, the entity administering the pool of assets may agree to ensure the receipt of payments on the underlying pool occurs in a timely fashion (“liquidity protection”). In addition, asset- backed securities may obtain insurance, such as guarantees, policies or letters of credit obtained by the issuer or sponsor from third parties, for some or all of the assets in the pool (“credit support”). Delinquency or loss more than that anticipated or failure of the credit support could adversely affect the return on an investment in such a security.
In addition, certain asset-backed securities may not have the benefit of any security interest in the related assets, which raises the possibility that recoveries on repossessed collateral may not be available to support payments on these securities. For example, credit card receivables are generally unsecured and the debtors are entitled to the protection of a number of state and federal consumer credit laws, many of which allow debtors to reduce their balances by offsetting certain amounts owed on the credit cards. Most issuers of asset-backed securities backed by automobile receivables permit the servicers of such receivables to retain possession of the underlying obligations. If the servicer were to sell these obligations to another party, there is a risk that the purchaser would acquire an interest superior to that of the holders of the related asset-backed securities. Due to the quantity of vehicles involved and requirements under state laws, asset-backed securities backed by automobile receivables may not have a proper security interest in all of the obligations backing such receivables.
Mortgage-backed securities are affected by, among other things, interest rate changes and the possibility of prepayment of the underlying mortgage loans. Mortgage-backed securities are also subject to the risk that underlying borrowers will be unable to meet their obligations. In addition, a variety of economic, geographic, social and other factors, such as the sale of the underlying property, refinancing or foreclosure, can cause investors to repay the loans underlying a mortgage-backed security sooner than expected. If the prepayment rates increase, the Fund may have to reinvest its principal at a rate of interest that is lower than the rate on existing mortgage-backed securities.
Collateralized Loan Obligations Risk (Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund): Collateralized loan obligations are investment vehicles typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans. Collateralized loan obligations are subject to the risks of substantial losses due to actual defaults by borrowers of the loans underlying the collateralized loan obligations, which will be greater during periods of economic or financial stress. Collateralized loan obligations may also lose value due to collateral defaults and disappearance of subordinate tranches, market anticipation of defaults, and investor aversion to collateralized loan obligation securities as

Notes to Financial Statements July 31, 2024
a class. The Fund may invest in collateralized loan obligations that hold loans of uncreditworthy borrowers or in subordinate tranches of a collateralized loan obligation, which may absorb losses from underlying borrower defaults before senior tranches. Investments in such collateralized loan obligations present a greater risk of loss. In addition, collateralized loan obligations are subject to interest rate risk and credit risk.
Credit Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund): The credit rating or financial condition of an issuer may affect the value of a debt security. Generally, the lower the quality rating of a security, the greater the 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. The issuer of an investment-grade security is more likely to pay interest and repay principal than an issuer of a lower rated bond. Adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances, however, may weaken the capacity of the issuer to pay interest and repay principal.
U.S. government securities are not guaranteed against price movements due to changing interest rates. Obligations issued by some U.S. government agencies are backed by the U.S. Treasury, while others are backed solely by the ability of the agency to borrow from the U.S. Treasury or by the government sponsored agency’s own resources. As a result, investments in securities issued by government sponsored agencies that are not backed by the U.S. Treasury are subject to higher credit risk than those that are.
High yield, or “junk,” bonds are highly speculative securities that are usually issued by smaller less credit worthy and/or highly leveraged (indebted) companies. Compared with investment-grade bonds, high yield bonds carry a greater degree of risk and are less likely to make payments of interest and principal. Market developments and the financial and business conditions of the corporation issuing these securities influences their price and liquidity more than changes in interest rates, when compared to investment-grade debt securities. Insufficient liquidity in the junk bond market may make it more difficult to dispose of junk bonds and may cause the Fund to experience sudden and substantial price declines. A lack of reliable, objective data or market quotations may make it more difficult to value junk bonds accurately.
Equity Risk (Growth Equity Fund): Since they 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 each Fund’s 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 each Fund.
Foreign Company Risk (Growth Equity Fund, Credit Fund): Investing in foreign companies, whether through investments made in foreign markets or made through the purchase of ADRs, which are traded on U.S. exchanges and represent an ownership in a foreign security, 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. In addition, investments in foreign companies are generally denominated in a foreign currency. As a result, changes in the value of those currencies compared to the U.S. dollar may affect (positively or negatively) the value of a Fund’s investments. These currency movements may occur separately from, and in response to, events that do not otherwise affect the value of the security in the issuer’s home country. Securities of foreign companies may not be registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“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 a Fund may be reduced by a withholding tax at the source, which tax would reduce income received from the securities comprising the Fund’s portfolio. 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.
Growth Style Risk (Growth Equity Fund): The price of equity securities rises and falls in response to many factors, including the historical and prospective earnings of the issuer of the stock, the value of its assets, general economic conditions, interest rates, investor perceptions, and market liquidity. The Fund may invest in securities of companies that the Adviser believes have superior prospects for robust and sustainable growth of revenues and earnings. These may be companies with new, limited or cyclical product lines, markets or financial resources, and the management of such companies may be dependent

Notes to Financial Statements July 31, 2024
upon one or a few key people. The stocks of such companies can therefore be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than stocks of larger, more established companies or the stock market in general.
High Yield Bond Risk (Municipal Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund): High yield, or “junk,” bonds are highly speculative securities that are usually issued by smaller less credit worthy and/or highly leveraged (indebted) companies. Compared with investment-grade bonds, high yield bonds carry a greater degree of risk and are less likely to make payments of interest and principal. Market developments and the financial and business conditions of the corporation issuing these securities influences their price and liquidity more than changes in interest rates, when compared to investment-grade debt securities. Insufficient liquidity in the junk bond market may make it more difficult to dispose of junk bonds and may cause the Fund to experience sudden and substantial price declines. A lack of reliable, objective data or market quotations may make it more difficult to value junk bonds accurately.
Interest Rate Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund): As with most funds that invest in debt securities, changes in interest rates are one of the most important factors that could affect the value of your investment. Rising interest rates tend to cause the prices of debt securities (especially those with longer maturities) and the Fund’s share price to fall. Risks associated with rising interest rates are heightened given that interest rates in the U.S. are at, or near, historic lows.
The concept of duration is useful in assessing the sensitivity of a fixed income fund to interest rate movements, which are usually the main source of risk for most fixed income funds. Duration measures price volatility by estimating the change in price of a debt security for a 1% change in its yield. For example, a duration of five years means the price of a debt security will change about 5% for every 1% change in its yield. Thus, the higher the duration, the more volatile the security.
Issuer Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund): The risk that the value of a security may decline for a reason directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services.
LIBOR Replacement Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund): The Fund may be exposed to financial instruments that recently transitioned from, or continue to be tied to, the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to determine payment obligations, financing terms, hedging strategies or investment value. The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), which regulates LIBOR, has ceased publishing all LIBOR settings on a representative basis. In April 2023, however, the FCA announced that some USD LIBOR settings will continue to be published under a synthetic methodology until September 30, 2024 for certain legacy contracts. The Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), which is a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities in the repurchase agreement market, has been used increasingly on a voluntary basis in new instruments and transactions. It remains uncertain how such changes would be implemented and the effects such changes would have on the Fund, including any negative effects on the Fund’s liquidity and valuation of the Fund’s investments, issuers of instruments in which the Fund invests and financial markets generally.
Large Shareholder Risk (Growth Equity Fund): Institutional Investor(s) of the Fund may hold a proportion of a Fund’s shares, alone or in the aggregate, greater than the average retail investor(s). Transactions (i.e., large purchase or large redemption) of an institutional investor could impact a retail investor in the process of actively managing the Fund. While it is impossible to predict the long-term impact of these transactions; such events could have an adverse effect on the Fund's performance, expenses, and taxes. Large purchases by an institutional investor may have an adverse effect on the Fund's performance, as it may take time to invest the cash and may require the Fund’s portfolio managers to maintain a larger cash position than they would under normal market conditions. Large redemptions by an institutional investor may increase the Fund’s transactional costs, expense ratio and may have an adverse tax effect for the remaining shareholders of the Fund by requiring a sale of portfolio securities that may have not been sold under normal market conditions.
Liquidity Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund): The risk that 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

Notes to Financial Statements July 31, 2024
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.
Management Risk (Each Fund): The risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses applied by the Adviser will not pro- duce the desired results and that legislative, regulatory, or tax developments may affect the investment techniques available to the Adviser and the individual portfolio manager in connection with managing each Fund. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of a Fund will be achieved.
Market Risk (Each Fund): The risk that the value of securities owned by the Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries. In addition, 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 Fund invests, which in turn could negatively impact the Fund’s performance and cause losses on your investment in the Fund. In addition, 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 a Fund invests, which in turn could negatively impact the Fund’s performance and cause losses on your investment in the Fund. Global health events and pandemics, such as COVID-19, have the ability to affect --quickly, drastically and substantially the economies of many nations, states, individual companies and the markets in general and can cause disruptions that cannot necessarily be foreseen. The spread of COVID-19 around the world in 2020 resulted in a substantial number of nations implementing social distancing measures, quarantines, and the shutdown of non-essential businesses and governmental services. Further, it has caused significant volatility in U.S. and international markets. The impact of the outbreak may be short term or may last for an extended period of time.
Municipal Issuers Risk (Low Duration Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund): There may be economic or political changes that impact the ability of municipal issuers to repay principal and to make interest payments on municipal securities. Changes in the financial condition or credit rating of municipal issuers also may adversely affect the value of each Fund’s municipal securities. Constitutional or legislative limits on borrowing by municipal issuers may result in reduced supplies of municipal securities. Moreover, certain municipal securities are backed only by a municipal issuer’s ability to levy and collect taxes.
Non-Diversified Risk (Growth Equity Fund) – The Fund is non-diversified, which means that it may invest in the securities of relatively few issuers. As a result, the Fund may be more susceptible to a single adverse economic or political occurrence affecting one or more of these issuers and may experience increased volatility due to its investments in those securities. However, the Fund intends to satisfy the diversification requirements for qualifying as a regulated investment company (a “RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
Prepayment and Extension Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund): Prepayment and extension risk is the risk that a loan, bond or other security might be called or otherwise converted, prepaid or redeemed before maturity. This risk is primarily associated with corporate-backed, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. If a security is converted, prepaid or redeemed before maturity, particularly during a time of declining interest rates or spreads, the Fund may not be able to invest the proceeds in securities providing as high a level of income, resulting in a reduced yield to the Fund. Conversely, as interest rates rise or spreads widen, the likelihood of prepayment decreases. The Fund may be unable to capitalize on securities with higher interest rates or wider spreads because the Fund’s investments are locked in at a lower rate for a longer period of time.
Repurchase Agreement Risk (Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund): Under a repurchase agreement, the seller of a security to the Fund agrees to repurchase the security at a mutually agreed-upon time and price. If the seller in a repurchase agreement transaction defaults on its obligation under the agreement, the Fund may suffer delays and incur costs or lose money in exercising its rights under the agreement.
Sector Focus Risk (Growth Equity Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund): Because the Fund may, from time to time, be more heavily invested in particular sectors, the value of its shares may be especially sensitive to
42

Notes to Financial Statements July 31, 2024
factors and economic risks that specifically affect those sectors. As a result, the Fund’s share price may fluctuate more widely than the value of shares of a mutual fund that invests in a broader range of sectors.
Small- and Mid-Capitalization Company Risk (Growth Equity Fund): The small- and mid-capitalization companies in which these Funds may invest may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. In particular, investments in these small- and mid-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- and mid-capitalization stocks may be more volatile than those of larger companies. These securities may be traded over-the-counter or listed on an exchange.
State-Specific Risk (Municipal Bond Fund): The Fund is subject to the risk that the economy of the states in which it invests, and the revenues underlying state municipal bonds, may decline. Investing primarily in a single state means that the Fund is more exposed to negative political or economic factors in that state than a fund that invests more widely.
Structured Note Risk (Credit Fund): The Fund may invest in fixed income linked structured notes. Structured notes are typically privately negotiated transactions between two or more parties. The fees associated with a structured note may lead to increased tracking error. The Fund also bears the risk that the issuer of the structured note will default. The Fund bears the risk of loss of its principal investment and periodic payments expected to be received for the duration of its investment. In addition, a liquid market may not exist for the structured notes. The lack of a liquid market may make it difficult to sell the structured notes at an acceptable price or to accurately value them.
Tax and Federal AMT Risk (Municipal Bond Fund) – The Fund will rely on the opinion of issuers’ bond counsel on the tax-exempt status of interest on municipal bond obligations. Neither the Fund nor the Adviser will independently review the bases for those tax opinions, which may ultimately be determined to be incorrect and subject the Fund and its shareholders to substantial tax liabilities. The Fund may invest in bonds subject to the federal AMT applicable to non-corporate shareholders. Shareholders subject to the federal AMT will be required to report the portion of the Fund’s distributions attributable to income from the bonds as a tax preference item in determining their amounts due under the federal AMT. The Fund may not be a suitable investment for individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”) and other tax-deferred arrangements.
Texas Municipal Securities Risk (Municipal Bond Fund) – The Fund may invest more than 25% of its total assets in securities issued by Texas and its municipalities, and as a result is more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in Texas than funds that invest a lesser percentage of their assets in such securities. For example, important sectors of the State’s economy include the oil and gas industry (including drilling, production, refining, chemicals and energy-related manufacturing) and high technology manufacturing (including computers, electronics and telecommunications equipment), along with an increasing emphasis on international trade. Each of these sectors has from time to time suffered from economic downturns. Adverse conditions in one or more of these sectors could have an adverse impact on Texas municipal securities.
Zero Coupon, Deferred Interest and Pay-In-Kind Bond Risk (Credit Fund): These bonds are issued at a discount from their face value because interest payments are typically postponed until maturity. Pay-in-kind securities are securities that have interest payable by the delivery of additional securities. The market prices of these securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of interest-bearing securities and are likely to respond to a greater degree to changes in interest rates than interest- bearing securities having similar maturities and credit quality.

11. 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.
12. Subsequent Events:
The Funds have evaluated the need for additional disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, no additional disclosures and/or adjustments were required to the financial statements as of July 31, 2024, except the following:
Effective May 23, 2024, the Board approved the liquidation of the Municipal Bond Fund and was closed to new and existing shareholders on July 31, 2024. The Municipal Bond Fund was liquidated effective August 28, 2024.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm July 31, 2024
To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of Frost Family of Funds
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Frost Family of Funds (the “Trust”) (comprising the Frost Credit Fund, Frost Growth Equity Fund, Frost Low Duration Bond Fund, Frost Municipal Bond Fund, and Frost Total Return Bond Fund (collectively referred to as the “Funds”)), including the schedules of investments, as of July 31, 2024, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds comprising Frost Family of Funds at July 31, 2024, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and their financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on each of 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 Trust 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 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. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2024, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
