What drove fund performance during the past 12 months?
International small-cap stocks posted solid gains in the year ended October 31, 2024. Inflation decelerated almost universally across developed economies, clearing the path for central banks to start cutting interest rates. With employment and growth still quite resilient, the pace of monetary easing was gradual.
Versus the S&P Global ex-U.S. Small Cap Index Net, the leading contributor to relative performance was stock selection in Japan. Shares of IHI Corporation soared as markets rewarded the industrial conglomerate's solid growth, driven by its civil aero engines and defense equipment segment. Our overweight position and stock choices in China also added value.
On the negative side, the leading detractor from relative performance was stock selection in Italy. Amplifon was a major laggard. The retailer of hearing care solutions saw disappointing performance in European markets, particularly France, and faced some operational challenges in Spain. Our stock choices in the UK also weighed on performance.
The fund invests in rapidly growing, small to medium-sized companies outside the U.S. with a focus on durable growth opportunities. We focus on companies that have a sound business model and management team, a prudent balance sheet, and a reasonable valuation and that are operating within an attractive industry structure. We continued to try and ensure a balanced portfolio. The recent past has been a tough environment for quality compounders so this was an area of focus, especially as we started to see signs that major external disruptions (COVID on/off, supply chain collapse/overstock, China weakness) were beginning to normalize.

What drove fund performance during the past 12 months?
International small-cap stocks posted solid gains in the year ended October 31, 2024. Inflation decelerated almost universally across developed economies, clearing the path for central banks to start cutting interest rates. With employment and growth still quite resilient, the pace of monetary easing was gradual.
Versus the S&P Global ex-U.S. Small Cap Index Net, the leading contributor to relative performance was stock selection in Japan. Shares of IHI Corporation soared as markets rewarded the industrial conglomerate's solid growth, driven by its civil aero engines and defense equipment segment. Our overweight position and stock choices in China also added value.
On the negative side, the leading detractor from relative performance was stock selection in Italy. Amplifon was a major laggard. The retailer of hearing care solutions saw disappointing performance in European markets, particularly France, and faced some operational challenges in Spain. Our stock choices in the UK also weighed on performance.
The fund invests in rapidly growing, small to medium-sized companies outside the U.S. with a focus on durable growth opportunities. We focus on companies that have a sound business model and management team, a prudent balance sheet, and a reasonable valuation and that are operating within an attractive industry structure. We continued to try and ensure a balanced portfolio. The recent past has been a tough environment for quality compounders so this was an area of focus, especially as we started to see signs that major external disruptions (COVID on/off, supply chain collapse/overstock, China weakness) were beginning to normalize.

Item 1. (b) Notice pursuant to Rule 30e-3.
Not applicable.
Item 2. Code of Ethics.

A copy of this code of ethics is filed as an exhibit to this Form N-CSR. No substantive amendments were approved or waivers were granted to this code of ethics during the period covered by this report.
Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.
The registrant’s Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Paul F. McBride qualifies as an audit committee financial expert, as defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR. Mr. McBride is considered independent for purposes of Item 3 of Form N-CSR.
Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
(a) – (d) Aggregate fees billed for the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered to, or on behalf of, the registrant by the registrant’s principal accountant were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | 2024 | | | | | | 2023 | | | |
| | Audit Fees | | | $26,450 | | | | | | | | $25,925 | | | |
| | Audit-Related Fees | | | 4,850 | | | | | | | | 5,591 | | | |
| | Tax Fees | | | 1,681 | | | | | | | | - | | | |
| | All Other Fees | | | - | | | | | | | | - | | | |
Audit fees include amounts related to the audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements and services normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings. Audit-related fees include amounts reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the registrant’s financial statements and specifically include the issuance of a report on internal controls and, if applicable, agreed-upon procedures related to fund acquisitions. Tax fees include amounts related to services for tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice. The nature of these services specifically includes the review of distribution calculations and the preparation of Federal, state, and excise tax returns. All other fees include the registrant’s pro-rata share of amounts for agreed-upon procedures in conjunction with service contract approvals by the registrant’s Board of Directors/Trustees.
(e)(1) The registrant’s audit committee has adopted a policy whereby audit and non-audit services performed by the registrant’s principal accountant for the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant require pre-approval in advance at regularly scheduled audit committee meetings. If such a service is required between regularly scheduled audit committee meetings, pre-approval may be authorized by one audit committee member with ratification at the next scheduled audit committee meeting. Waiver of pre-approval for audit or non-audit services requiring fees of a de minimis amount is not permitted.
(2) No services included in (b) – (d) above were approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
(f) Less than 50 percent of the hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.
(g) The aggregate fees billed for the most recent fiscal year and the preceding fiscal year by the registrant’s principal accountant for non-audit services rendered to the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant were $846,000 and $1,584,000, respectively.
(h) All non-audit services rendered in (g) above were pre-approved by the registrant’s audit committee. Accordingly, these services were considered by the registrant’s audit committee in maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940
(the
1940
Act).
The
International
Discovery
Fund
(the
fund)
is a
diversified, open-end
management
investment
company
established
by
the
corporation. The
fund
seeks long-term
growth
of
capital
through
investments
primarily
in
the
common
stocks
of
rapidly
growing,
small-
to
medium-sized
companies
outside
the
U.S.
The
fund
has three classes
of
shares:
the
International
Discovery
Fund
(Investor

the
International
Discovery
Fund–I
Class
(I
Class)
and
the
International
Discovery

initial
investment
minimum,
although
the
minimum
generally
is
waived
or
reduced
for
financial
intermediaries,
eligible
retirement

SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Basis
of
Preparation
The fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(FASB)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946
(ASC
946).
The
accompanying
financial
statements
were
prepared
in
accordance
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(GAAP),
including,
but
not
limited
to,
ASC
946.
GAAP
requires
the
use
of
estimates
made
by
management.
Management
believes
that
estimates
and
valuations
are
appropriate;
however,
actual
results
may
differ
from
those
estimates,
and
the
valuations
reflected
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
may
differ
from
the
value
ultimately
realized
upon
sale
or
maturity.
Investment
Transactions,
Investment
Income,
and
Distributions
Investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
basis.
Income
and
expenses
are
recorded
on
the
accrual
basis.
Realized
gains
and
losses
are
reported
on
the
identified
cost
basis. Income
tax-related
interest
and
penalties,
if
incurred,
are
recorded
as
income
tax
expense. Dividends
received
from other
investment
companies are
reflected
as
dividend income;
capital
gain
distributions
are
reflected
as
realized
gain/loss. Dividend
income and
capital
gain
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date. Non-cash
dividends,
if
any,
are
recorded
T.
ROWE
PRICE
International

at
the
fair
market
value
of
the
asset
received. Proceeds
from

payments,
if
any,
are
included
in
either
net
realized
gain
(loss)
or
change
in
net
unrealized
gain/loss
from

to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend

distributions,
if
any,
are
declared
and
paid
by
each
class annually. A
capital
gain
distribution,
if
any, may
also
be
declared
and
paid
by
the
fund
annually.
Currency
Translation
Assets,
including
investments,
and
liabilities
denominated
in
foreign
currencies
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollar
values
each
day
at
the
prevailing
exchange
rate,
using
the
mean
of
the
bid
and
asked
prices
of
such
currencies
against
U.S.
dollars
as
provided
by
an
outside
pricing
service.
Purchases
and
sales
of
securities,
income,
and
expenses
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
the
prevailing
exchange
rate
on
the
respective
date
of
such
transaction.
The
effect
of
changes
in
foreign
currency
exchange
rates
on
realized
and

gains
and
losses
is
not
bifurcated
from
the
portion
attributable
to
changes
in
market
prices.
Class
Accounting
Shareholder
servicing,
prospectus,
and
shareholder
report
expenses
incurred
by
each
class
are
charged
directly
to
the
class
to
which
they
relate.
Expenses
common
to
all
classes,

are
allocated
to

Capital
Transactions
Each
investor’s
interest
in
the
net
assets
of the
fund
is
represented
by
fund
shares. The
fund’s
net
asset
value
(NAV)
per
share
is
computed
at
the
close
of
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(NYSE),
normally
4
p.m.
Eastern
time,
each
day
the
NYSE
is
open
for
business.
However,
the
NAV
per
share
may
be
calculated
at
a
time
other
than
the
normal
close
of
the
NYSE
if
trading
on
the
NYSE
is
restricted,
if
the
NYSE
closes
earlier,
or
as
may
be
permitted
by
the
SEC.
Purchases
and
redemptions
of
fund
shares
are
transacted
at
the
next-computed
NAV
per
share,
after
receipt
of
the
transaction
order
by
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.,
or
its
agents.
New

the
FASB

Standards
Update
(ASU),
ASU
2023-07,
Segment
Reporting
(Topic

–
Improvements
to
Reportable

Disclosures,
which
improves

In
addition,
the
ASU
clarifies
that
a

entity
with
a
single
reportable
segment
provide
all
disclosures
required
by
the
ASU
and
all
existing
segment
disclosures
in
Topic
280.
The
amendments
under
this
ASU
T.
ROWE
PRICE
International
Discovery
Fund
are
effective
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2023.
Management
expects
that
adoption
of
the
guidance
will
not
have
a
material
impact
on
the
fund’s
financial
statements.
Indemnification
In
the
normal
course
of
business, the
fund
may
provide
indemnification
in
connection
with
its
officers
and
directors,
service
providers,
and/or
private
company
investments. The
fund’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown;
however,
the
risk
of
material
loss
is
currently
considered
to
be
remote.

VALUATION
Fair
Value
The
fund’s
financial
instruments
are
valued
at
the
close
of
the
NYSE
and
are
reported
at
fair
value,
which
GAAP
defines
as
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. The fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(the
Board)
has
designated
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
as
the
fund’s
valuation
designee
(Valuation
Designee).
Subject
to
oversight
by
the
Board,
the
Valuation
Designee
performs
the
following
functions
in
performing
fair
value
determinations:
assesses
and
manages
valuation
risks;
establishes
and
applies
fair
value
methodologies;
tests
fair
value
methodologies;
and
evaluates
pricing
vendors
and
pricing
agents.
The
duties
and
responsibilities
of
the
Valuation
Designee
are
performed
by
its
Valuation
Committee. The
Valuation
Designee provides
periodic
reporting
to
the
Board
on
valuation
matters.
Various
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
are
used
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments.
GAAP
establishes
the
following
fair
value
hierarchy
that
categorizes
the
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value:
Level
1
–
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
financial
instruments
that
the
fund
can
access
at
the
reporting
date
Level
2
–
inputs
other
than
Level
1
quoted
prices
that
are
observable,
either
directly
or
indirectly
(including,
but
not
limited
to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
financial
instruments
in
active
markets,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
financial
instruments
in
inactive
markets,
interest
rates
and
yield
curves,
implied
volatilities,
and
credit
spreads)
Level
3
–
unobservable
inputs
(including
the Valuation
Designee’s assumptions
in
determining
fair
value)
T.
ROWE
PRICE
International
Discovery
Fund
Observable
inputs
are
developed
using
market
data,
such
as
publicly
available
information
about
actual
events
or
transactions,
and
reflect
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
Unobservable
inputs
are
those
for
which
market
data
are
not
available
and
are
developed
using
the
best
information
available
about
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
GAAP
requires
valuation
techniques
to
maximize
the
use
of
relevant
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs.
When
multiple
inputs
are
used
to
derive
fair
value,
the
financial
instrument
is
assigned
to
the
level
within
the
fair
value
hierarchy
based
on
the
lowest-level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
of
the
financial
instrument.
Input
levels
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
or
liquidity
associated
with
financial
instruments
at
that
level
but
rather
the
degree
of
judgment
used
in
determining
those
values.
Valuation
Techniques
Equity
securities,
including
exchange-traded
funds, listed
or
regularly
traded
on
a
securities
exchange
or
in
the
over-the-
counter
(OTC)
market
are
valued
at
the
last
quoted
sale
price
or,
for
certain
markets,
the
official
closing
price
at
the
time
the
valuations
are
made.
OTC
Bulletin
Board
securities
are
valued
at
the
mean
of
the
closing
bid
and
asked
prices.
A
security
that
is
listed
or
traded
on
more
than
one
exchange
is
valued
at
the
quotation
on
the
exchange
determined
to
be
the
primary
market
for
such
security.
Listed
securities
not
traded
on
a
particular
day
are
valued
at
the
mean
of
the
closing
bid
and
asked
prices
for
domestic
securities
and
the
last
quoted
sale
or
closing
price
for
international
securities.
The
last
quoted
prices
of
non-U.S.
equity
securities
may
be
adjusted
to
reflect
the
fair
value
of
such
securities
at
the
close
of
the
NYSE,
if
the Valuation
Designee
determines
that
developments
between
the
close
of
a
foreign
market
and
the
close
of
the
NYSE
will
affect
the
value
of
some
or
all
of
the
fund’s portfolio
securities.
Each
business
day,
the
Valuation
Designee uses
information
from
outside
pricing
services
to
evaluate
the
quoted
prices
of
portfolio
securities
and,
if
appropriate,
decide whether
it
is
necessary
to
adjust
quoted
prices
to
reflect
fair
value
by
reviewing
a
variety
of
factors,
including
developments

which
approximates

Investments
for

are
valued
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
by
the
Valuation
Designee.
The
Valuation
Designee
has
adopted
methodologies
for
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable,
including
the
use
of
other
pricing
sources.
Factors
used
in
determining
fair
value
vary
by
type
of
investment
and
may
include
market
or
investment
specific
considerations.
The
Valuation
Designee typically
will
afford
greatest
weight
to
actual
prices
in
arm’s
length
transactions,
to
the
extent
they
represent
orderly
transactions
between
market
participants,
transaction
information
can
be
reliably
obtained,
and
prices
are
deemed
representative
of
fair
value.
However,
the
Valuation
Designee may
also
consider
other
valuation
methods
such
as
market-based
valuation
multiples;
a
discount
or
premium
from
market
value
of
a
similar,
freely
traded
security
of
the
same
issuer;
discounted
cash
flows;
yield
to
maturity;
or
some
combination.
Fair
value
determinations
are
reviewed
on
a
regular
basis.
Because
any
fair
value
determination
involves
a
significant
amount
of
judgment,
there
is
a
degree
of
subjectivity
inherent
in
such
pricing
decisions. Fair
value
prices
determined
by
the
Valuation
Designee could
differ
from
those
of
other
market
participants,
and
it
is
possible
that
the
fair
value
determined
for
a

may
be
materially
different

countries.
Emerging
markets,
and
to
a

to
have
economic
structures
that
are
less
diverse
and
mature,
less
developed
legal
and
regulatory
regimes,
and
political
systems
that
are
less
stable,
than
those
of

These
markets
may
be
subject
to
greater
political,
economic,
and
social
uncertainty
and
differing
accounting
standards
and
regulatory
environments
that
may
potentially
impact
the

ability
to
buy
or
sell
certain
securities
or
repatriate

than

including

China
A
Shares
The
fund
invests
in
certain
Chinese
equity
securities
(A
shares)
that
have
limited
availability
to
investors
outside
of
China.
The
fund
gains
access
to
the
A
share
market
through
the
Shanghai-Hong
Kong
Stock
Connect
program
(Shanghai
Stock
Connect),
through
the
Shenzhen-Hong

program
(Shenzhen

or
through
a
wholly

of
Price

which
serves
as
the
registered
Qualified
Foreign
Institutional
Investor
(QFII)
for
all
participating
T.
Rowe
Price-sponsored
products
(each
a
participating
account).
Related
to
A
shares
held
through
the
QFII,
investment
decisions
are
specific
to
each
participating
account,
and
each
account
bears
the
economic
consequences
of
its
holdings
and
transactions
in
A
shares.
Further,
the
fund’s
ability
to
repatriate
cash
associated
with
its
A
shares
held
through
the
QFII
is
subject
to
certain
restrictions
and
administrative
processes
involving
the
Chinese
government;
consequently,
the
fund
may
experience
substantial
delays
in
gaining
access
to
its
assets
or
incur
a
loss
of
value
in
the
event
of
noncompliance
with
governmental
requirements.
A
shares
acquired
through
the
QFII
are
valued
using
the
onshore
renminbi
exchange
rate
(CNY),
and
those
acquired
through
the
Shanghai
Stock
Connect
and
the
Shenzhen
Stock
Connect
are
valued
using
the
offshore
renminbi
exchange
rate
(CNH).
CNY
and
CNH
exchange
rates
may
differ;
accordingly,
A
shares
of
the
same
issue
purchased
through
different
channels
may
not
have
the
same
U.S.
dollar
value.
Generally,
the
fund
is
not
subject
to

in
China
related
to

Securities
Lending
The fund
may
lend
its
securities
to
approved
borrowers
to
earn
additional
income.
Its
securities
lending
activities
are
administered
by
a
lending
agent
in
accordance
with
a
securities

agreement.
Security
loans
generally
do
not
have
stated
maturity
dates,
and
the
fund
may
recall
a
security
at
any
time.
The
fund
receives
collateral
in
the
form
of
cash
or
U.S.
government
securities.
Collateral
is
maintained
over
the
life
of
the
loan
in
an
amount
not
less
than
the
value
of
loaned
securities;
any
additional
collateral
required
due
to
changes
in
security
values
is
delivered
to
the
fund
the
next
business
day.
Cash
collateral
is
invested
in
accordance
with
investment
guidelines
approved
by
fund
management.
Additionally,
the
lending
agent
indemnifies
the
fund
against
losses
resulting
from
borrower
default.
Although
risk
is
mitigated
by
the
collateral
and
indemnification,
the

FEDERAL
INCOME
TAXES
Generally,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
since
the
fund
intends
to continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
under
Subchapter
M
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
and
distribute
to
shareholders
all
of
its taxable
income
and
gains.
Distributions
determined
in
accordance
with
federal
income
tax
regulations
may
differ
in
amount
or
character
from
net
investment
income
and
realized
gains
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
The
fund
files
U.S.
federal,
state,
and
local
tax
returns
as
required.
The
fund’s
tax
returns
are
subject
to
examination
by
the
relevant
tax
authorities
until
expiration
of
the
applicable
statute
of
limitations,
which
is
generally
three
years
after
the
filing
of
the
tax
return
but
which
can
be
extended
to
six
years
in
certain
circumstances.
Tax
returns
for
open
years
have
incorporated
no
uncertain
tax
positions
that
require
a
provision
for
income
taxes.
Capital
accounts
within
the
financial
reporting
records
are
adjusted
for
permanent
book/tax
differences
to
reflect
tax
character
but
are
not
adjusted
for
temporary
differences.
The
permanent
book/tax
adjustments,
if
any,
have
no
impact
on
results
of
operations
or
net
assets.
The
permanent
book/
tax
adjustments
relate
primarily
to
deemed
distributions
on
shareholder
redemptions,
the
character
of
income
on
passive
foreign
investment
companies
and

these

BORROWING
To
provide
temporary
liquidity,
the
fund
may
borrow
from
other
T.
Rowe
Price-
sponsored
mutual
funds
under
an
interfund
borrowing
program
developed
and
managed
by
Price
Associates.
The
program
permits
the
borrowing
and
lending
of
cash
at
rates
beneficial
to
both
the
borrowing
and
lending
funds.
Pursuant
to
program
guidelines,
loans
totaling
10%
or
more
of
a
borrowing
fund’s
total
assets
require
collateralization
at
102%
of
the
value
of
the
loan;
loans
of
less
than
10%
are
unsecured.
During
the
year ended
October
31,
2024,
the
fund
incurred
$4,000
in
interest
expense
related
to
outstanding
borrowings
on
two
days
in
the
average
amount
of
$10,850,000
and
at

and
Shareholders

Opinion
on
the
Financial
Statements
We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statement
of
assets
and
liabilities,
including
the
portfolio
of
investments,
of
T.
Rowe
Price
International
Discovery
Fund
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
T.
Rowe
Price
International

referred
to
hereafter
as
the
"Fund")
as
of
October
31,
2024,
the
related
statement
of
operations
for
the
year
ended
October
31,
2024,
the
statement
of
changes
in
net
assets
for
each
of
the
two
years
in
the
period
ended
October
31,
2024,
including
the
related
notes,
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
periods
indicated
therein
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial
statements”).
In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Fund
as
of
October
31,
2024,
the
results
of
its
operations
for
the
year
then
ended,
the
changes
in
its
net
assets
for
each
of
the
two
years
in
the
period
ended
October
31,
2024
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
periods
indicated
therein,
in
conformity
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Fund’s
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund’s
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
Fund
in
accordance
with
the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audits
of
these
financial
statements
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
T.
ROWE
PRICE
International
Discovery
Fund
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
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.
Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
October
31,
2024
by
correspondence
with
the
custodian,
transfer
agent
and
brokers;
when
replies
were
not
received
from
brokers,
we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.
We
believe
that
our
audits
provide
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinion.
