Economic and Market Review
Stocks moved higher during the last six months as investor sentiment continued to improve. Since September 30, 2023, the S&P 500 has surged 23.4%, its largest six month return since the Covid reopening rally in 2020. Prior to that, the last time we saw such a strong short-term market move was 12 years ago. The rise has been steady, with only a single pullback of more than 2% since the surge began in late October. A number of factors spurred the market move including cooling inflation, which provides the potential for lower interest rates later this year, and an economy that has continued to show resilience with GDP growth above expectations. In addition, the idea that AI could revolutionize the economy created even more enthusiasm for equities, especially for stocks of companies most directly involved in the evolving technology. In other words, the stars aligned perfectly for a stock market “melt up.”
While everyone may not agree with every policy decision made by the Federal Reserve’s Open Market Committee (FOMC), credit must be given to the group for successfully navigating treacherous economic waters over the last two years. The spike in inflation in 2021-2022 led to the sharpest fed funds rate increases on record. The yield curve inverted as short rates moved from near 0% to over 5% in just a few quarters. Historically, yield curve inversions have led to recessions after a lag of 12-18 months, but today the economy continues to grow. The latest revision to fourth quarter GDP pegged the growth rate at 3.4% and inflation is near 3%. The jobs market is robust, with the unemployment rate at only 3.8% in March. Unemployment, reported monthly, has remained under 4% for more than two years, the longest such stretch since the 1960s.
Given these strong fundamentals and continued stubbornly high inflation, it is not surprising that recent statements from FOMC Chair Jerome Powell indicate that the committee will likely delay and reduce the amount of rate cuts this year. The reality is that inflation is not close enough to its 2% target that it can lower rates in the near term as previously expected. Early in this calender year, some pundits were forecasting 6 or 7 cuts in 2024, but the consensus has settled at 2 or 3 cuts. This seems more realistic to us. The Fed will obviously continue to attempt to orchestrate a soft landing for the economy, one that maintains GDP growth while producing low inflation. So far, its actions have succeeded.
Strong economic growth, higher corporate earnings and record-high stock prices are clearly indicators of a healthy environment. Stock price performance has broadened somewhat from 2023 when a small group of fast-growing technology stocks, dubbed the Magnificent Seven, led the way. In the first quarter of this year, Communication Services, Energy and Financials joined Technology as the best performing sectors. Last year the Magnificent Seven displayed earnings growth well above the rest of the market, which in some ways justified their outperformance. Looking ahead, earnings expectations are improving in other sectors, and these groups have much lower valuations as well. With the previous high-fliers at stratospheric earnings multiples, we expect the broadening to continue, benefiting a larger number of stocks in many other sectors of the market as well your Fund.
Within The Fund
The Institutional share class of Cantor Fitzgerald Equity Dividend Plus Fund returned 17.22% for the semi-annual period ended March 31, 2024 lagging the Russell 1000 Value (the “Index”) return of 19.34% over the same period. The Fund was 93.6% equity and 6.4% cash at period-end.
As mentioned in our market review above, the broadening stock market produced strong returns across a number of different stocks in several sectors in your Fund. Financials provided the largest contribution to returns, with Travelers, Wells Fargo and JPMorgan Chase performing especially well. The Consumer Discretionary sector also had strong returns with Tapestry and Home Depot outperforming. Both of these sectors rebounded from weakness earlier in 2023 as consumer spending stayed strong and expectations for interest rate cuts improved valuations. Other stocks performing well were Broadcom and Target. While all sectors had positive returns, Health Care and Industrials were the largest detractors relative to the Index. Pfizer in Health Care and Lockheed Martin within Industrials held back returns. Cash equivalents and written call options created a drag to performance as well, as equity only returns were similar to the Index.
Cash flow generation from dividends and call option premiums is a primary focus of your Equity Dividend Plus Fund. The Fund utilizes as part of its investment discipline the use of covered call options as individual securities approach the top of the Adviser’s growth and price expectations. The Fund’s purpose in selling the call option is to generate additional cash flow to the Fund and to hedge the possibility the security may not achieve its price objective. In very strong stock markets, this discipline may limit the upside of the securities where options have been written, but in flat to negative markets, it may provide additional return. During the semi-annual period ended March 31, 2024, the amount of premiums generated from selling covered call options was $559,898.

Market Review
Beginning in late October, global equity markets reversed a three-month decline in dramatic fashion with the S&P 500 Index rising more than 14% over the last two months of the year. The rally in equity markets was triggered by a striking drop in interest rates as the yield on the 10-year US Treasury fell from 5.0% to 3.9% from late October through year-end. The rally continued through the first quarter with the S&P 500 Index having now risen almost 30% off the October 27 low point. Although showing some signs of improvement, a broadening of U.S. equity markets for which many hoped has not yet fully arrived. The market capitalization-weighted S&P 500 Index outpaced the equal-weighted by 2.7% for the first calendar quarter of 2024 and the spread over the past 12 months is now 10.5%. 40% of index constituents outpaced the capitalization-weighted index for the latest quarterly period, which compares favorably to the 25% figure for calendar year 2023. With the modest improvement in market breadth, the Mag-7 group of stocks did not dominate the leaderboard in the same fashion as it did in 2023, during which all seven stocks ranked in in the top 10% of index performers. We view it as a positive sign that for this latest quarter, the Mag-7 had three stocks in the top 100 performers (NVDA, META & AMZN) and two in the bottom 100 (TSLA & AAPL).
Over the past year-and-a-half the rally in the Mag-7 was largely reflective of the phenomenal earnings momentum in the group. The growth peaked in the fourth quarter of 2023 with 68% year-over-year earnings growth, relative to flat to down earnings for the rest of the S&P 500 Index constituents. After more than a year of earnings growth dominance by the Mag-7, the tide is slowly starting to turn. The Purchasing Managers Indices (PMI) have been improving in the U.S., China and Europe through the first quarter, although Europe remains in contraction territory. Improving PMI readings are favorable indicators for the earnings outlook. Also, household balance sheets in the U.S. and abroad are mostly healthy although some cracks are starting to show as households are now challenged to tap into home equity as a source of financing. Thus, earnings appear on an upward trajectory once again with an expected earnings growth rate of 9.0% over the next 12 months for the average stock in the S&P 500 Index and an increase of 10.1% for the capitalization-weighted index. If consensus earnings expectations are accurate then the S&P 500 Index is trading at 21.9x forward earnings and the average stock in the index is trading at 18.9x forward earnings.
Within The Fund
For the six-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Cantor Fitzgerald Large Cap Focused Fund Institutional Class shares net of fee return of 22.67% trailed the Fund’s benchmark, the S&P 500 Index which posted a return of 23.48%.
The Fund’s holdings within the Health Care and Consumer Staples sectors contributed positively to relative performance, while the Fund’s positioning in the Information Technology and Communication Services sectors had the most negative effect on performance. Security selection provided all the negative relative performance, partially offset by sector allocation. The Fund’s lack of exposure to the Real Estate and Utilities sectors, the two worst performing sectors in the benchmark, helped with almost 0.3% of positive relative performance from sector allocation.
The Health Care sector delivered the best relative performance with the Fund’s holdings returning 24.4% compared to a 15.8% return in the benchmark sector.
● | Medpace Holdings Inc., (2.9% of net assets) this clinical research organization was a large contributor for the period as earnings outpaced expectations by almost 11%. Shares gained 45.8% during the period. |
The Fund holdings in the Consumer Staples sector delivered better relative performance with a 31.0% return while in the benchmark the sector returned 13.5%.
● | Costco Wholesale Corp., (3.3% of net assets) the discount shopping club contributed the most to the Fund’s return in the sector for the period. Against a backdrop of weaker consumer confidence, the company reported quarterly earnings that were better than analysts’ expectations. Investors rewarded shares with a return of 33.4%. |
While Cash was the second largest negative contributor with -0.6% of relative performance, among stock holdings the Fund’s positioning in the Information Technology and Communications Services sectors caused most of the lagging performance.
The Fund’s holdings in the Information Technology sector returned 20.2% during the period, compared to a benchmark sector return of 32.0%. The Fund’s position in Adobe had the worst negative move in the sector, contributing 0.5% of underperformance. However, a more significant -2.5% of relative performance was caused by not having a position in

Nvidia. This stock represented a 3.6% average weight in the benchmark while posting an 107.7% return for the period.
● | Adobe, Inc., (2.3% of net assets) the creative media software company delivered quarterly earnings that beat expectations by more than 2% on revenues that were almost 1% better than expectations. However, cautious comments from management led to concerns regarding recurring revenue targets for the year, erasing the gains from the previous quarter. For the full period shares posted a decline of 0.9%. |
In the Communications Services sector, the Fund’s holdings posted a quarterly return of 9.1%, worse than the 15.8% sector return in the index.
● | Pinterest, Inc., (2.1% of net assets) the social media platform, reported a positive earnings surprise but missed slightly on revenues. This was a disappointment as investors had higher expectations from new advertising initiatives, thus shares of the company gained just 1.2% for the period. |
Outlook
Where’s the next leg of earnings growth coming from? Over the past year-and-a-half the Mag-7 has grabbed the market headlines as the group drove U.S. equity markets to record highs and left much of the rest of the markets lagging far behind. Current expectations are for first quarter S&P 500 Index earnings to rise 4-5% year-over-year, with most of the gains attributable to mega-cap technology but excluding this group earnings will likely be flat. However, this pattern starts to shift meaningfully over the next several quarters with the “rest of the S&P 500” reaching year-over-year growth in the low-teens by the fourth quarter. That is not to say that the Mag-7 and mega-cap tech companies don’t have strong earnings growth, but by the end of 2024 the growth rate of this group is expected to be only slightly above the rest of the S&P 500 Index constituents. Yet mega-cap technology is carrying an almost 50% Price/Earnings multiple valuation premium to the rest of the S&P 500 Index.
According to CBO forecasts, the U.S. labor force is poised to add five million workers to the labor pool. The increase, if accurate, has meaningful positive implications for economic growth and downward pressure on inflation over the coming years. As noted, the PMI readings have been improving in the U.S., China and Europe through the first quarter, although Europe remains in contraction territory. Improving PMI readings are favorable indicators for the earnings outlook. Household balance sheets in the U.S. and abroad are mostly healthy although some cracks are starting to show as households are now challenged to tap into home equity as a source of financing. Despite soaring inflation, real wages in the U.S. are actually up over the past few years thanks to strong productivity growth, a trend likely to continue if not accelerate thanks to artificial intelligence expanding to all corners of the economy. There are certainly concerns as fiscal policy has become less supportive and excess savings are running down. However, U.S. employment remains strong, the labor force is growing, inflation is receding, and corporate earnings are recovering, all of which appear supportive of continued favorable returns for equity markets and other risk assets.

(a) | Total returns are a measure of the change in value of an investment in the Fund over the periods covered, which assumes any dividends or capital gains distributions are reinvested in shares of the Fund. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes a shareholder would pay on the Fund’s distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Expense limitations were in effect for certain classes during some or all of the periods shown. Performance would have been lower had expense limitations not been in effect. Total returns for less than one year are not annualized. |
(b) | Class A shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 5.75% and have an annual 12b-1 fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. Performance of Class A shares, excluding sales charges, assumes that no front-end sales charges applied. |
(c) | Institutional Class shares are not subject to a sales charge and are offered for sale exclusively to certain eligible investors. Institutional Class shares pay no distribution and service (12b-1) fees. |
(d) | The Russell 1000® Value Index is an index that tracks large cap, value stocks. This benchmark is important for investors that might tilt their investments towards large cap value. Value stocks, in comparison to growth stocks, are considered companies with a stable cash flow, and more mature business model. You cannot invest directly in an index and unmanaged index returns do not reflect any fees, expenses or sales charges. The Russell 1000 Value Index is the Fund’s primary benchmark. Previously, the Fund’s primary benchmark was the S&P 500 Index. The Advisor changed the primary benchmark because it believes the Russell 1000 Value Index is a more appropriate and accurate index against which to compare the Fund’s performance because the components of the Russell 1000 Value Index better align with the Fund’s portfolio. |
(e) | The S&P 500® Index, or Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, is a market-capitalization-weighted index of 500 leading publicly traded companies in the U.S. The index actually has 503 components because three of them have two share classes listed. You cannot invest directly in an index and unmanaged index returns do not reflect any fees, expenses or sales charges. |
The Fund’s net expense ratios, as described in the most recent prospectus dated February 1, 2024 were 1.24%, and 0.99% for Class A, and Institutional Class, respectively. Without the waiver, the expenses would be 1.55%, and 1.30% for Class A, and Institutional Class, respectively, per the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated February 1, 2024. Cantor Fitzgerald Investment Advisors, L.P. (the “Advisor”), has agreed to waive or reduce its management fees and to assume other expenses of the Fund in an amount that limits the Total Annual Operating Expenses of the Fund (exclusive of (i) brokerage fees and commissions; (ii) acquired fund fees and expenses; (iii) fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including, for example, option and swap fees and expenses); (iv) borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short); (v) taxes and (vi) extraordinary expenses, such as litigation expenses (which may include indemnification of Fund officers and Trustees and contractual indemnification of Fund service providers (other than the Advisor) but inclusive of organizational costs and offering costs) to not more than 1.24% and 0.99% of the average daily net assets of the Class A and Institutional Class shares of the Fund, respectively.

(f) | The Russell 1000® Growth Index is an index that tracks large cap, growth stocks. This benchmark is important for investors that might tilt their investments towards large cap growth. Growth stocks, in comparison to value stocks, are considered companies with a more growth potential, and a higher risk profile. You cannot invest directly in an index and unmanaged index returns do not reflect any fees, expenses or sales charges. |
The Fund’s net expense ratios, as described in the most recent prospectus dated February 1, 2024, were 1.17%, 0.86%, and 0.79% for Class A, Institutional Class and Class R6, respectively. Without the waiver, the expenses would be 1.30%, 0.99%, and 0.92% for Class A, Institutional Class, and Class R6, respectively, for the same time period. Cantor Fitzgerald Investment Advisors, L.P. (“the Advisor”) has agreed to waive or reduce its management fees and to assume other expenses of the Fund in an amount that limits the Total Annual Operating Expenses of the Fund (exclusive of (i) brokerage fees and commissions; (ii) acquired fund fees and expenses; (iii) fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including, for example, option and swap fees and expenses); (iv) borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short); (v) taxes and (vi) extraordinary expenses, such as litigation expenses (which may include indemnification of Fund officers and Trustees and contractual indemnification of Fund service providers (other than the Advisor or Sub-Advisor) but inclusive of organizational costs and offering costs) to not more than 1.17%, 0.86%, and 0.79% of the average daily net assets of the Class A, Institutional Class and Class R6 shares of the Fund, respectively. This contractual arrangement is in effect through January 31, 2025, unless terminated by the Board of Trustees of the Trust at any time. Please see the “Financial Highlights” section in this report for the most recent expense ratios.

| 2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Each Fund follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” The following is a summary of the Funds’ significant accounting policies. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Securities valuation – The Funds’ portfolio securities are valued as of the close of business of the regular session of the New York Stock Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). Securities traded on a national stock exchange, including common stocks and closed-end investment companies, if any, are valued based upon the closing price on the principal exchange where the security is traded, if available, otherwise, at the last quoted bid price. Securities that are quoted by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Covered call options written by the Funds are valued at the last quoted sale price or, in the absence of a sale, at the ask price on the principal exchanges on which they are traded. Investments representing shares of money market funds and other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value (“NAV”) as reported by such companies.

Securities will be valued at fair value when market quotations (or other market valuations such as those obtained from a pricing service) are not readily available or are deemed unreliable. The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”) has designated the adviser as its valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) to execute these procedures. The Board may also enlist third party consultants such a valuation specialist at a public accounting firm, valuation consultant or financial officer of a security issuer on an as-needed basis to assist the Valuation Designee in determining a security-specific fair value. The Board is responsible for reviewing and approving fair value methodologies utilized by the Valuation Designee, approval of which shall be based upon whether the Valuation Designee followed the valuation procedures established by the Board.
Fair Valuation Process – The applicable investments are valued by the Valuation Designee pursuant to valuation procedures established by the Board. For example, fair value determinations are required for the following securities: (i) securities for which market quotations are insufficient or not readily available on a particular business day (including securities for which there is a short and temporary lapse in the provision of a price by the regular pricing source); (ii) securities for which, in the judgment of the Valuation Designee, the prices or values available do not represent the fair value of the instrument; factors which may cause the Valuation Designee to make such a judgment include, but are not limited to, the following: only a bid price or an asked price is available; the spread between bid and asked prices is substantial; the frequency of sales; the thinness of the market; the size of reported trades; and actions of the securities markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading; (iii) securities determined to be illiquid; and (iv) securities with respect to which an event that will affects the value thereof has occurred (a “significant event”) since the closing prices were established on the principal exchange on which they are traded, but prior to a Fund’s calculation of its net asset value. Specifically, interests in commodity pools or managed futures pools are valued on a daily basis by reference to the closing market prices of each futures contract or other asset held by a pool, as adjusted for pool expenses. Restricted or illiquid securities, such as private investments or non-traded securities are valued based upon the current bid for the security from two or more independent dealers or other parties reasonably familiar with the facts and circumstances of the security (who should take into consideration all relevant factors as may be appropriate under the circumstances). If a current bid from such independent dealers or other independent parties is unavailable, the Valuation Designee shall determine, the fair value of such security using the following factors: (i) the type of security; (ii) the cost at date of purchase; (iii) the size and nature of the Fund’s holdings; (iv) the discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase and subsequent thereto; (v) information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security; (vi) the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security and the existence of any registration rights; (vii) how the yield of the security compares to similar securities of companies of similar or equal creditworthiness; (viii) the level of recent trades of similar or comparable securities; (ix) the liquidity characteristics of the security; (x) current market conditions; and (xi) the market value of any securities into which the security is convertible or exchangeable.
GAAP establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| ● | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
| ● | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs |
| ● | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Share valuation – The NAV per share of each Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of its assets, less liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding.
Allocation between classes – Class accounting investment income, common expense, and realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments are to the various classes of each Fund on the basis of daily net assets of each class. Realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments are allocated to the various classes of each Fund on the basis of daily net assets of each class. Distribution expense relating to a specific class are charged directly to that class. Class R6 shares will not be allocated any expenses related to services fees, sub-accounting fees, and /or sub-transfer agency fees paid to brokers, dealers, or other financial intermediaries.
Investment income – Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the security received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Discounts and premiums on fixed income securities purchased are amortized using the interest method. Withholding taxes, if any, on foreign dividends have been recorded in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s rules and tax rates.

Distributions to shareholders – Dividends arising from net investment income are declared and paid quarterly to shareholders of the Cantor Fitzgerald Equity Dividend Plus and annually to the shareholders of the Cantor Fitzgerald International Equity & Cantor Fitzgerald Large Cap Focused Fund. Net realized short-term capital gains, if any, may be distributed throughout the year, and net realized long-term capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Investment transactions – Investment transactions are accounted for on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on a specific identification basis.
Options transactions – When the Funds’ investment adviser believes that individual portfolio investment securities held by the Funds are approaching the top of the adviser’s growth and price expectations, covered call options can be written (sold) against such securities and the Funds will receive a premium in return. The Funds writes options only for income generation and hedging purposes and not for speculation. The premiums received from writing the options are recorded as a liability and are subsequently valued daily at the closing prices on their primary exchanges. Premiums received from writing options that expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options that are exercised increase the proceeds used to calculate the realized gain or loss on the sale of the underlying security. If a closing purchase transaction is used to terminate a Fund’s obligation on a call option, a gain or loss will be realized, depending upon whether the price of the closing purchase transaction is more or less than the premium previously received on the call option written.
Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, each as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Federal income tax – The Funds have qualified and intend to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Qualification generally will relieve the Funds of liability for federal income taxes to the extent 100% of their net investment income and any net realized capital gains are distributed in accordance with the Code.
In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also the Funds’ intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS
Each Fund’s investments are managed by Cantor Fitzgerald Investment Advisors, L.P. (the “Advisor”) under the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, Cantor Fitzgerald Equity Dividend Plus and Cantor Fitzgerald Large Cap Focused Fund pays the Advisor a fee, which is computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.65% of its average daily net assets up to $500 million; 0.60% of the next $500 million of such assets; 0.55% of the next $1.5 billion of such assets, and 0.50% on assets in excess of $2.5 billion. For the International Equity Fund, as full compensation for the investment advisory services provided to the Fund, the Advisor receives monthly compensation based on the Fund’s average daily net assets at the annual rate of 0.79%
The Advisor has entered into an Expense Limitation Agreement (“ELA”) with the Trust, pursuant to which the Advisor has agreed to waive management fees and /or reimburse each Fund for expenses each Fund incurs, but only to the extent necessary to maintain each Fund’s total annual operating expenses after fee waivers and/or reimbursement (exclusive of (i) brokerage fees and commissions; (ii) acquired fund fees and expenses; (iii) fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including, for example, option and swap fees and expenses); (iv) borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short); (v) taxes and (vi) extraordinary expenses, such as litigation expenses (which may include indemnification of Fund officers and Trustees and contractual indemnification of Fund service providers (other than the Advisor or Sub-Advisor) but inclusive of organizational costs and offering costs) to the limits set forth below. This contractual arrangement is in effect through the dates set forth below, unless terminated by the Board of Trustees at any time. The ELA shall continue in effect for successive twelve-month periods provided that such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the Advisor. Accordingly, during the period/six months ended March 31, 2024, the Advisor earned fees in the amount of $184,543, $23,760 and $1,147,029 for the Cantor Fitzgerald Equity Dividend Plus Fund, Cantor Fitzgerald International Equity Fund and the Cantor Fitzgerald Large Cap Focused Fund Fund, respectively.

The Advisor may recoup investment advisory fees that it waived or Fund expenses that it paid under this agreement for a period of three years from the date the fees were waived or expenses paid, if the recoupment can be achieved without causing the expense ratio of the share class (after the recoupment is taken into account) to exceed (i) the expense limit in effect at the time the fees were waived or expenses paid, or (ii) the expense limit in place at the time of the recoupment.
As of March 31, 2024 the Advisor may seek recoupment of investment advisory fee reductions and expense reimbursements no later than September 30, 2025 in the amount of $29,462 for the Cantor Fitzgerald Large Cap Focused Fund and no later than September 30, 2026 in the amount of $30,999 and $456,412 for the Cantor Fitzgerald Equity Dividend Plus Fund and Cantor Fitzgerald Large Cap Focused Fund, respectively. Amounts waived by the Advisor prior to the Reorganization (see Note 11) are not subject to recoupment.

| 7. | PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS |
Investments in the Funds are subject to investment risks, including the possible loss of some or the entire principal amount invested. The Funds are subject to certain risks, including the principal risks noted below, any of which may adversely affect the Funds’ net asset value per shares, trading price, yield, total return, and ability to meet its investment objectives. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit or obligation of any bank, is not endorsed or guaranteed by any bank, and is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The prospectus states the individual risks for each individual fund, generally, the Funds will be subject to the following principal risks:
Active management and selection risk – The risk that the securities selected by a fund’s management will underperform the markets, the relevant indices, or the securities selected by other funds with similar investment objectives and investment strategies. The securities and sectors selected may vary from the securities and sectors included in the relevant index.
Company size risk – The risk that investments in small- and/or medium-sized companies may be more volatile than those of larger companies because of limited financial resources or dependence on narrow product lines.
Covered call option risk – The use of options requires special skills and knowledge of investment techniques that are different than those normally required for purchasing and selling securities. If the Advisor is incorrect in its price expectations and the market price of a security subject to a call option rises above the exercise price of the option, the Fund will lose the opportunity for further appreciation of that security but continue to bear the risk of a decline in the value of the underlying stock.
Cybersecurity risk – As part of its business, the Sub-Advisor processes, stores, and transmits large amounts of electronic information, including information relating to the transactions of the Fund. The Sub-Advisor and the Fund are therefore susceptible to cybersecurity risk. Cybersecurity failures or breaches of the Fund or its service providers have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, the inability of Fund shareholders to transact business, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties and/or reputational damage. The Funds and their shareholders could be negatively impacted as a result.
Distribution policy risk – The Funds seek to make quarterly distributions to shareholders. All or a portion of a distribution may consist solely of a return of capital (i.e. from your original investment) and not a return of net profit. Shareholders should not assume that the source of a distribution from the Fund is net profit. Shareholders should note that return of capital will reduce the tax basis of their shares and potentially increase the taxable gain, if any, upon disposition of their shares.
Dividend strategy risk – The Funds’ focus on dividend-paying stocks could cause it to underperform relative to funds that invest without consideration of a company’s track record of paying dividends. An issuer of a stock held by the Funds may choose not to declare a dividend or the dividend rate might not remain at current levels or increase over time. Dividend paying stocks might not experience the same level of earnings growth or capital appreciation as non-dividend paying stocks. Changes in the dividend policies or capital resources of companies in which the Fund invests may affect the Fund’s ability to generate income.
ETF risk – An investment in an ETF generally presents the same primary risks as an investment in a conventional investment company, including the risk that the general level of security prices owned by the ETF may decline, thereby affecting the value of the shares of the ETF. In addition, ETFs are subject to certain risks that do not apply to conventional open-end mutual funds, including the risk that the market price of an ETF’s shares may trade at a discount to its net asset value, or that an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not be developed or maintained.
Equity securities risk – The return on and value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate in response to stock market movements. Stocks tend to move in cycles and may decline in tandem with a drop in the overall value of the markets based on negative developments in the U.S. or global economies. Stocks and other equity securities are subject to inherent market risks and fluctuations in value due to earnings and other developments affecting a particular company

or industry, stock market trends and general economic conditions, investor perceptions, interest rate changes and other factors beyond the control of the Advisor. The price of a company’s stock may decline if the company does not perform as expected, if it is not well managed, if there is a decreased demand for its products or services, or during periods of economic uncertainty or stock market turbulence. Economies and financial markets throughout the world have become interconnected which increases the possibility that economic, financial, or political events in one country, sector or region could have potentially adverse effects on global economies or markets. Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine, the responses and sanctions by other countries, and the potential for wider conflicts, could continue to have adverse effects on regional and global economies and may further strain global supply chains and negatively affect global growth and inflation. Policy changes by the U.S. government and/or Federal Reserve and political events with the U.S. and abroad, such as changes in the U.S. presidential administration and Congress, may affect investor and consumer confidence, and adversely impact the financial markets.
Natural or environmental disasters, such as earthquakes, fires, floods, hurricanes and tsunamis, and widespread disease, including pandemics and epidemics, have been and can be highly disruptive to economies and the markets. For example, the outbreak of an infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus, known as COVID-19, and efforts to contain its spread, have resulted, and may continue to result in labor shortages, supply chain disruptions, lower consumer demand for certain products and services, and significant disruptions to economies and markets, adversely affecting individual companies, sectors, industries, interest rates and investor sentiment.
Growth stock risk – Growth stocks (such as those in the information technology sector) reflect projections of future earnings and revenue. These prices may rise or fall dramatically depending on whether those projections are met. These companies’ stock prices may be more volatile, particularly over the short term.
Large company risk – Larger capitalization companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology and consumer tastes, have fewer opportunities to expand the market for their products or services, and may not be able to attain the high growth rate of successful smaller companies.
Limited number of securities risk – The possibility that a single security’s increase or decrease in value may have a greater impact on a fund’s value and total return because the fund may hold larger positions in fewer securities than other funds. In addition, a fund that holds a limited number of securities may be more volatile than those funds that hold a greater number of securities.
Liquidity risk – The possibility that investments cannot be readily sold within seven calendar days at approximately the price at which a fund has valued them.
Management risk – The Advisor’s method of security selection may not be successful and the securities in the Fund’s portfolio may not perform as well as the market as a whole. Value stocks are subject to the risks that they may not appreciate in value as expected or their prices may decline.
Market risk – The risk that all or a majority of the securities in a certain market — such as the stock or bond market — will decline in value because of factors such as adverse political or economic conditions, future expectations, investor confidence, or heavy institutional selling.
Mid-cap company risk – Mid-capitalization (“mid-cap”) companies often involve higher risks because they may lack the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. In many instances, the securities of mid-cap companies are traded only over-the-counter or on a regional securities exchange, and the frequency and volume of their trading is substantially less than is typical of larger companies.

If the Cantor Fitzgerald Large Cap Focused Fund has significant investments in the securities of issuers in industries within a particular business sector, any development affecting that sector will have a greater impact on the value of the net assets of the Fund than would be the case if the Fund did not have significant investments in that sector. In addition, this may increase the risk of loss of an investment in the Fund and increase the volatility of the Fund’s NAV per share. From time to time, circumstances may affect a particular sector and the companies within such sector. For instance, economic or market factors, regulation or deregulation, or other developments may negatively impact all companies in a particular sector and, therefore, the value of the Fund’s portfolio would be adversely affected. As of March 31, 2024, the Cantor Fitzgerald Large Cap Focused Fund had 30.2% of its net assets invested in the Technology sector.
| 9. | CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS |
The Trust indemnifies the Trust’s officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.

On January 24, 2023, the SEC adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information. Other information, including financial statements, will not appear in a streamlined shareholder report but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments have a compliance date of July 24, 2024. At this time, management is evaluating the impact of these amendments on the shareholder reports for the Funds.
The Funds are required to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed as of the date of the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For non-recognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Funds are required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Management has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of these financial statements and has noted no such events.

About Your Fund Expenses (Unaudited) |
We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other operating expenses. These ongoing costs, which are deducted from the Fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the Fund.
A mutual fund’s ongoing costs are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples below are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from October 1, 2023 through March 31, 2024.
The table below illustrates the Fund’s ongoing costs in two ways:
Actual fund return – This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the Fund’s actual return, and the fourth column shows the dollar amount of operating expenses that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.
To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $ 8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for the Fund under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period.”
Hypothetical 5% return – This section is intended to help you compare the Fund’s ongoing costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes the Fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses during the period shown, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the returns used are not the Fund’s actual returns, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess the Fund’s ongoing costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.
Note that expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only. The Fund does not charge sales loads or redemption fees.
The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.
More information about the Fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios for the past five fiscal years, can be found in this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.
