| | |
Monteagle Select Value Fund - Institutional Class | $162 | 1.46% |
performance
The Fund enjoyed positive returns for the year ending August 31, 2024 due to strong equity performance and stock selection within the fund. As growth stocks outperformed value, returns were below the S&P 500’s return of 27.14%, yet still returned an attractive 21.76% during the fiscal year.
Strategy
The Fund’s investment goal is long-term capital appreciation. The Fund uses a “value investing” style by investing at least 80 percent of its assets in common stock of domestic companies believed to be underpriced while utilizing a reversion-to-the-mean strategy. The adviser will generally hold between 20 and 60 equities and diversify its holdings across numerous industries. Value stocks are broadly defined as equities which have a price-to-earnings ratio and a price-to-book ratio less than the relative market average, a higher dividend yield and a beta of less than 1.0.
Techniques
The Fund concentrates on equities contained in the S&P 500. The Fund’s adviser will use a predominate strategy of reversion-to-the-mean with a value tilt. More specifically, stocks whose one-year returns are in the bottom quartile of the index are targeted for purchase in anticipation of a reversal and subsequent appreciation in price, given favorable valuations and favorable forward-looking metrics. Some of the specific traditional value metrics that are used to determine relative value are Forward P/E Ratios, Price to Book Ratios and Price to Sales Ratios. Forward P/E ratios are utilized over traditional P/E ratios to avoid “value traps,” where the price may appear attractive at current earnings, but potentially overvalued when factoring in future earnings. Given current elevated interest rates, companies with lower levels of leverage are prioritized. Metrics used for this analysis include ratios such as Debt to EBITDA, Debt to Equity and Free Cash Flow. When choosing specific stocks, the various metrics used for selection are compared against other companies within the same sector in effort to seek the best relative value within each sector. The overall sector allocation considers the S&P 500’s sector allocation weighting to reduce return volatility relative to the index, but can deviate based on stocks available for purchase. The strategy focuses on stock selection to drive returns compared to sector rotation or market timing. The Subadvisor will screen purchases using the eVALUEator® screening software to avoid companies that produce, promote, advertise, sponsor, or offer services related to: abortion, pornography, human rights, gambling, and those entertainment companies that produce or support anti-family content in film, games, print, or television It is anticipated that the Fund may hold higher levels of cash during periods of market uncertainty. This strategy is executed with a long-term outlook and will have periods of under-performance and out-performance versus its Index.

managment’s discussion of fund performance
The Monteagle Opportunity Equity Fund trailed its benchmark over the past 12 months but has outperformed in the last three months ending August 31, 2024. From August 31, 2023 to August 31, 2024, the Fund returned 15.37%, shy of the S&P Mid 400’s return of 18.72%. In the most recent three months ending August 31, 2024, the Fund has returned 5.17%, outperforming the Mid 400’s 4.05% return over the same period.
Strategy
The sub-adviser's allocation decisions were net positive contributors to performance over the last twelve months, while security selection was a detractor. Specifically, the Fund’s overweight to the Industrials sector had the greatest positive effect on the portfolio’s returns while the relative underweight to the Consumer Discretionary sector was the biggest detractor.
Techniques
The Monteagle Opportunity Equity Fund follows its stated investment approach selecting the most attractive high-quality mid-cap and small-cap securities according to the process derived from our years of research. The portfolio will continue with weightings to land the overall strategy in the mid-cap blend style and is likely to lean slightly toward value versus growth given our knowledge of the history of the process and outcomes.
History shows that the high-quality focus of the Fund often leads to a low beta relative to the mid-cap index. As the S&P 400 Mid-Cap Index and financial markets overall have rallied the Fund has participated, but to a lesser degree with the Fund boasting a 0.95 beta measured weekly over a 1-Year period relative to the S&P Mid Cap 400, and 0.88 over the last three- years. We remain comfortable with this performance relative to the benchmark as we believe the high-quality factor within small- and mid-cap stocks is of great importance given how many unprofitable companies exist in the space. The Fund’s high-quality bias lends stability in earnings and revenue which are an investor’s friend in times of volatility.
With the Fed embarking on its first rate cutting cycle since the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, small- and mid-cap stocks are poised to benefit from a lower rate environment and valuations, specifically within the small- and mid-cap space remain compelling after screening out the unprofitable names. While not out of the woods yet, should the Fed achieve a soft landing, we believe small- and mid- cap stocks can outperform their large cap peers.
The Investor share class of The Monteagle Opportunity Equity Fund (symbol: HEQFX) is currently rated 4 Stars overall according to Morningstar. The overall Morningstar Rating for the Institutional Class shares (symbol: HEQCX) is currently 4 Stars as well.

managment’s discussion of fund performance
The Fund enjoyed positive returns for the year ended August 31, 2024. The 12-month total return was 19.44% for the period vs 13.44% on the respective index. The return was buoyed by favorable stock market conditions as the fed halted their aggressive rate hiking campaign and moved towards cutting interest rates. The stock portfolio returns combined with the option writing income helped produce the favorable return.
Strategy
The Fund managers tactical asset allocation strategy also contributed to favorable returns by adjusting the sectors exposure within the portfolio during the year. The strategy is to maintain long positions in quality equity securities expected to appreciate over the long term. The portfolio manager will then seek to write options above the purchase price in an effort to boost income and total return. The targeted securities typically will not have a beta to the overall market that will make it too difficult to keep in the portfolio. In the event the security has risen above the strike price on the option contract expiration date, the securities will be called away and the manager will seek to reinvest in a prudent manner. The Fund also seeks to capture the dividend income on portfolio securities and factors this into derivative selection.
Techniques
During the period the Fund used tactical allocations to the various sectors within the equity markets. The Fund was underweight the information technology sector compared to the S&P 500 index, however the security selection within the sector was strong. The decision was driven by the recent valuations of large cap technology stocks. The Fund manager was also patient in redeploying funds to called away to positions as the rates on money markets over the period hovered above 5%. The Fund also used an allocation to the SPY indexed ETF to maintain market exposure while funds are in the process of being reinvested to the target portfolio. While valuations in some target portfolio companies became stretched, the favorable rates on money market proved fruitful while remaining patient. The rest of the portfolio remained close to index weighting on sector allocation.

managment’s discussion of fund performance
The Fund enjoyed positive returns for the year ended August 31, 2024, buoyed in part by favorable stock market conditions. The S&P 400 Mid Cap Index and S&P 500 Equal Weight Index slightly edged out higher performance than BIGTX, with returns of 18.75% and 19.49%, respectively, compared to the Fund’s 18.39% return. The positive performance of the Fund was primarily attributable to select outperforming stocks and sector weightings from a tactical allocation strategy. Specifically, the Fund is currently overweight Industrials, Financials, and Consumer Discretionary, which were three of the top five best performing sectors within the S&P in the most recent quarter. The Fund outperforms the Russell 2000 for the rolling one-year, three-year, and five-year period and closely lags the S&P Midcap on a one-year period and outperforms the rolling three- and five-year period.
Strategy
The Fund’s investment goal is long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests in a broad market capitalization across the various sectors and sizes of the Texas economy keeping 80% or more of the fund invested in: 1) companies headquartered in Texas, 2) organized under Texas state laws, or 3) derive 50% of revenues or profits or have 50% of their assets in Texas. The adviser limits the pool of stocks considered for purchase to only those equities with market capitalization greater than $500 million. The adviser also limits the amount in any one sector to less than 25% of the overall portfolio of companies.
Techniques
In selecting stocks, the Fund’s adviser uses a formula ranking stocks in each sector. Company rankings are determined by the Fund’s adviser after analyzing the financials, valuation, and growth prospects in comparison with their peers in the sector. The advisor considers the macro environment as well as sector opportunities to determine how heavily to weight a sector. The overall objective is to hold higher ranked companies for a long-term period to allow the capture of their growth within the Texas economy.
Since there are a number of small and mid-cap companies in Texas and the fund advisers do not give specific preference large caps, the fund tends to have an average market capitalization between $4 billion to $6 billion. The Fund also maintains investments across the spectrum of Texas companies from those considered to be value companies to those considered growth companies.

Monteagle Funds
Notes to Financial Statements
August 31, 2024
1. ORGANIZATION
Monteagle Funds (“the Trust”) was organized as a business trust under the laws of the State of Delaware on November 26, 1997 as Memorial Funds. The Trust changed its name to Monteagle Funds in July, 2006.
The Trust is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as an open-end, management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Trust is authorized by its Declaration of Trust to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest in each series. The Trust currently consists of the following series (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”):
Monteagle Select Value Fund
Monteagle Opportunity Equity Fund
Monteagle Enhanced Equity Income Fund
The Texas Fund
The Smart Diversification Fund, previously offered, was closed by the investment adviser, Park Place Capital Corporation, on November 24, 2023.
The Monteagle Select Value Fund (“Select Value Fund”), Monteagle Opportunity Equity Fund (“Opportunity Equity Fund”), Monteagle Enhanced Equity Income Fund (“Enhanced Equity Income Fund”), and The Texas Fund (“Texas Fund”) are each a diversified series of Monteagle Funds. The principal investment objective of each of Select Value Fund, Opportunity Equity Fund and The Texas Fund (collectively the “Equity Funds”) is long-term capital appreciation. The principal investment objective of the Enhanced Equity Income Fund is to seek high current income while maintaining prospects for capital appreciation.
The Funds are authorized to offer one class of shares, Institutional Class shares, except the Opportunity Equity Fund has an Investor Class and Institutional Class shares. Each class differs as to operating service fees, such that Institutional Class shares have lower fees but there is a higher minimum initial investment required.
The Enhanced Equity Income Fund commenced investment operations on January 23, 2023.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").
The Funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the 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:
Securities Valuation — Equity securities, including common stocks, exchange traded funds and real estate investment trusts, held by the Funds for which market quotations are readily available are valued using the last reported sales price or the official closing price provided by independent pricing services as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each Fund’s business day, which is deemed to be the fair value. If no sales are reported, the average of the last bid and ask price is used. If no average price is available, the last bid price is used. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy described below. When an equity security is valued by the independent pricing service using factors other than market quotations or the market is considered inactive, they will be categorized in level 2.
Options contracts that are actively traded are valued based on quoted prices from the exchange and categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Options held by the Funds for which no current quotations are readily available and which are not traded on the valuation date are valued at the average of the last bid and ask price and are categorized within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Depending on the product and terms of the transaction, the fair value of options can be modeled taking into account the counterparties’ creditworthiness and using a series of techniques, including simulation models. Many pricing models do not entail material subjectivity because the methodologies employed do not necessitate significant judgments, and the pricing inputs are observed from actively quoted markets, as is the case of options contracts. Options contracts valued using pricing models are categorized within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Warrants that are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, are categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Warrants traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are categorized in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Money market funds are valued at their net asset value of $1.00 per share and are categorized as level 1. Securities with maturities of 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value and would be categorized as level 2.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
● | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities that the Funds have the ability to access |
● | 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 risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments at fair value as of August 31, 2024:

Options transactions — The Enhanced Equity Income Fund and the Texas Fund may purchase put and call options written by others and sell put and call options covering specified individual securities, securities or financial indices or currencies. A put option (sometimes called a “standby commitment”) gives the buyer of the option, upon payment of a premium, the right to deliver a specified amount of a security, index or currency to the writer of the option on or before a fixed date at a predetermined price. A call option (sometimes called a “reverse standby commitment”) gives the purchaser of the option, upon payment of a premium, the right to call upon the writer to deliver a specified amount of a security, index or currency on or before a fixed date, at a predetermined price. The predetermined prices may be higher or lower than the market value of the underlying security, index or currency. The Funds may buy or sell both exchange-traded and over-the-counter (“OTC”) options. The Funds will purchase or write an option only if that option is traded on a recognized U.S. options exchange or if the Adviser or Sub-adviser believes that a liquid secondary market for the option exists. When the Fund purchases an OTC option, it relies on the dealer from whom it has purchased the OTC option to make or take delivery of the security, index or currency underlying the option. Failure by the dealer to do so would result in the loss of the premium paid by the Fund as well as the loss of the expected benefit of the transaction. OTC options and the securities underlying these options currently are treated as illiquid securities by the Funds.
Upon selling an option, the Fund receives a premium from the purchaser of the option. Upon purchasing an option, the Fund pays a premium to the seller of the option. The amount of premium received or paid by the Fund is based upon certain factors, including the market price of the underlying securities, index or currency, the relationship of the exercise price to the market price, the historical price volatility of the underlying assets, the option period, supply and demand and interest rates.
The Funds may purchase call options on equity securities that the Fund’s Adviser or Sub-adviser intends to include in the Fund’s portfolio in order to fix the cost of a future purchase. Call options may also be purchased to participate in an anticipated price increase of a security on a more limited risk basis than would be possible if the security itself were purchased. If the price of the underlying security declines, this strategy would serve to limit the potential loss to the Fund to the option premium paid. Conversely, if the market price of the underlying security increases above the exercise price and the Fund either sells or exercises the option, any profit eventually realized will be reduced by the premium paid. The Funds may similarly purchase put options in order to hedge against a decline in market value of securities held in its portfolio. The put enables the Fund to sell the underlying security at the predetermined exercise price; thus the potential for loss to the Fund is limited to the option premium paid.
If the market price of the underlying security is lower than the exercise price of the put, any profit the Fund realizes on the sale of the security would be reduced by the premium paid for the put option less any amount for which the put may be sold.
The Adviser or Sub-adviser may write call options when it believes that the market value of the underlying security will not rise to a value greater than the exercise price plus the premium received. Call options may also be written to provide limited protection against a decrease in the market price of a security, in an amount equal to the call premium received less any transaction costs.
The Funds may purchase and write put and call options on fixed income or equity security indexes in much the same manner as the options discussed above, except that index options may serve as a hedge against overall fluctuations in the fixed income or equity securities markets (or market sectors) or as a means of participating in an anticipated price increase in those markets. The effectiveness of hedging techniques using index options will depend on the extent to which price movements in the index selected correlate with price movements of the securities, which are being hedged. Index options are settled exclusively in cash. See Note 10 for additional risks associated with options transactions.
All options purchased by the Texas Fund and written by Enhanced Equity Income Fund during the year were equity securities including exchange traded funds. The derivatives are not accounted for as hedging instruments under GAAP.
At August 31, 2024, the Texas Fund had purchased call and put options valued at $51,600 and $102,000, respectively, and the Enhanced Equity Income Fund had written call options valued at $135,028, which are presented as Covered Call Options Written at Fair Value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The effect of derivative instruments on the Statements of Operations during the year ended August 31, 2024 were as follows:
Fund | Derivatives not accounted for as hedging instruments under GAAP | Location of gain (loss) on Derivatives recognized in income | Realized and unrealized gain (loss) on Derivatives recognized in income |
Enhanced Equity Income Fund | Call and put options written | Net realized gain from written options | $ 391,897 |
| | | |
Enhanced Equity Income Fund | Call and put options written | Net change in unrealized appreciation on written options | $ (35,403) |
| | | |
Texas Fund | Call and put options purchased | Net realized loss from investments | $ (373,697) |
| | | |
Texas Fund | Call and put options purchased | Net change in unrealized appreciation on investments | $ 121,621 |
For the year ended August 31, 2024, the Enhanced Equity Income Fund purchased no option contracts. For the year ended August 31, 2024, the Enhanced Equity Income Fund wrote 3,450 call contracts and 733 put contracts. For the year ended August 31, 2024, the Texas Fund purchased 2,000 call option contracts and 3,480 put option contracts. For the year ended August 31, 2024 the Texas Fund wrote no option contracts. The number of purchased and written contracts is representative of the volume of activity for these derivative types during the period.
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for on trade date and realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on a specific identification basis.
Real Estate Investment Trusts (REIT) — Investing in real estate investment trusts, or “REITs”, involves certain unique risks in addition to those associated with the real estate sector generally. REITs, whose underlying properties are concentrated in a particular industry or region, are also subject to risks affecting such industries and regions. REITs (especially mortgage REITs) are also subject to interest rate risks. By investing in REITs through the Fund, a shareholder will bear expenses of the REITs in addition to Fund expenses. Distributions received from the Funds' investments in REITs may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain, or a return of capital. The proper characterization of REIT distributions is generally not known until after the end of each calendar year. As such, the Fund must use estimates in reporting the character of its income and distributions received for financial statement purposes. The actual character of distributions to a Fund's shareholders will be reflected on the Form 1099 received by shareholders after the end of the calendar year. Due to the nature of REIT investments, a portion of the distributions received by a Fund's shareholders may represent a return of capital.
The Funds may not purchase or sell real estate or interests in real estate, including real estate limited partnerships; provided, however, that the Funds may invest in securities secured by real estate or interests therein or issued by companies, including real estate investment trusts, which invest in real estate or interests therein.
Interest and Dividend Income — Interest income is accrued as earned. Dividends on securities held by the Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders — Net investment income distributions, if any, for Select Value Fund, Opportunity Equity Fund, Enhanced Equity Income Fund, and Texas Fund are declared and paid quarterly at the discretion of each Fund’s adviser. Net capital gains for the Funds, if any, are distributed to shareholders at least annually. Distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The tax character of distributions paid by the Select Value Fund, Opportunity Equity Fund, Enhanced Equity Income Fund, and Texas Fund during years ended August 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
Fund | Ordinary Income | Long-Term Capital Gain |
| 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 |
Select Value Fund | $ 83,917 | $ 683,381 | $ - | $ - |
Opportunity Equity Fund | 758,976 | 319,908 | 3,087,824 | 1,485,932 |
Enhanced Equity Income Fund | 1,474,021 | 632,455 | - | - |
Texas Fund | - | 16,628 | 297,718 | 397,362 |
Estimates — These financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Common Expenses — Common expenses of the Trust are allocated among the Funds within the Trust based on relative net assets of each Fund or the nature of the services performed and the relative applicability to each Fund. Other allocations may also be approved from time to time by the Trustees.
Allocation of Income and Expenses, Realized and Unrealized Capital Gains and Losses — Income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses on investments, and Fund-wide expenses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares of the Opportunity Equity Fund based upon their relative net assets. Class-specific expenses are charged directly to the respective share class.

During the year ended August 31, 2024, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities, excluding short-term investments, U.S. government securities, and securities sold short, were as follows:
Fund | Purchases | Sales |
Select Value Fund | $ 4,203,668 | $ 5,472,787 |
Opportunity Equity Fund | 9,726,699 | 20,043,965 |
Enhanced Equity Income Fund | 22,186,877 | 24,527,375 |
Texas Fund | 6,125,588 | 7,559,265 |
There were no purchases or sales of U.S. government securities made by the Funds. The Texas Fund had purchases and sales of securities sold short aggregated of $45,004 and $41,188, respectively.
5. TAX MATTERS
It is each Fund’s intention to comply with the special provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. As provided therein, in any fiscal year in which a Fund so qualifies and distributes at least 90% of its taxable income, such Fund (but not the shareholders) will be relieved of federal income tax on the income distributed. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made.
In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also each Fund’s intention to declare as dividends, in each calendar year, at least 98% of its net investment income and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains plus undistributed amounts from prior years.
The Funds’ tax basis distributable earnings (deficit) are determined only at the end of each fiscal year. The tax character of distributable earnings (deficit) at August 31, 2024, the Funds’ most recent fiscal year end, was as follows:
Fund | Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) | Undistributed Ordinary Income (Loss) | Undistributed Capital Gains (Losses) | Capital Loss Carryforward | Post-December Ordinary Loss | Post- October Capital Loss | Total Distributable Earnings/ (Deficit) |
Select Value Fund | $ (6,003) | $ 50,668 | $ 1,053,563 | $ - | $ - | $ - | $ 1,098,228 |
Opportunity Equity Fund | 1,648,378 | - | 688,053 | - | - | - | 2,336,431 |
Enhanced Equity Income Fund | 39,065 | 749,003 | - | - | - | - | 788,068 |
Texas Fund | 3,912,589 | - | 253,227 | - | - | - | 4,165,816 |
The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from investments is primarily attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and return of capital from underlying investments. Permanent book and tax differences, primarily attributable to the utilization of earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares and net operating losses resulted in reclassification for the Opportunity Equity Fund and Texas Fund for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024 as follows:
Fund | Paid-in Capital | Total Distributable Earnings/(Deficit) |
Opportunity Equity Fund | $ 18,279 | $ (18,279) |
Texas Fund | $ (16,733) | $ 16,733 |
Under current tax law, certain capital losses realized after October 31, and certain ordinary losses realized after December 31 but before the end of the fiscal year (“Post-October Losses” and “Late Year Losses”, respectively) may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first business day of the following fiscal year. For the year ended August 31, 2024, the Funds did not have such losses deferred.
As of August 31, 2024, the following Fund had the following capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. These capital loss carryforwards may be utilized in future years to offset net realized capital gains, if any, prior to distributing such gains to shareholders and may be carried forward indefinitely retaining their character as short-term and/or long-term.
Fund | Non-Expiring Long-Term | Non-Expiring Short-Term | Total | Utilized |
Select Value Fund | $ - | $ - | $ - | $ (794,667) |
The following information is based upon the federal income tax cost of the investment securities as of August 31, 2024:
Fund | Cost | Gross Unrealized Appreciation | Gross Unrealized Depreciation | Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) |
Select Value Fund | $ 17,248,720 | $ 1,750,655 | $(1,756,658) | $ (6,003) |
Opportunity Equity Fund | 14,932,440 | 1,944,291 | (295,913) | 1,648,378 |
Enhanced Equity Income Fund | 12,869,812 | 556,952 | (517,887) | 39,065 |
Texas Fund | 9,700,644 | 4,063,988 | (151,399) | 3,912,589 |
The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the tax positions in all open tax years and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken in open tax years. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and Delaware. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations as incurred. During the year ended August 31, 2024 the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds are not subject to examination by U.S. Federal tax authorities for tax years before 2021.
6. CONTROL OWNERSHIP
The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates presumption of control of the fund under Section 2(a)(9) of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

The Funds indemnify the Trust’s officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
9. SECTOR AND GEOGRAPHIC RISKS
When the Funds emphasize one or more economic sectors, it may be more susceptible to the financial, market, or economic events affecting the particular issuers and industries in which they invest than funds that do not emphasize particular sectors. The more a fund diversifies, the more it spreads risk and potentially reduces the risks of loss and volatility.
The Texas Fund’s investments are concentrated in Texas, and therefore the Fund will be susceptible to adverse market, political, regulatory, social, economic and geographic events affecting Texas. The Fund’s performance may be more volatile than the performance of more geographically diverse funds. Since one of the main industries in Texas is mining and logging, including the oil and gas sectors, Texas is particularly susceptible to economic, environmental and political activities affecting this industry.
10. OPTIONS RISK
The Enhanced Equity Income and Texas Funds’ use of options subjects the Funds to certain investment risks and transaction costs to which it might not otherwise be subject. These risks include: (i) dependence on the Adviser or Sub-adviser’s ability to predict movements in the prices of individual securities and fluctuations in the general securities markets; (ii) imperfect correlations between movements in the prices of options and movements in the price of the securities (or indices) hedged or used for cover, which may cause a given hedge not to achieve its objective; (iii) the fact that the skills and techniques needed to trade these instruments are different from those needed to select the securities in which the Funds invest; (iv) lack of assurance that a liquid secondary market will exist for any particular instrument at any particular time, which, among other things, may hinder the Funds’ ability to limit exposures by closing its positions; and, (v) the possible need to defer closing out of certain options to avoid adverse tax consequences. Other risks include the inability of the Funds, as the writer of covered call options, to benefit from any appreciation of the underlying securities above the exercise price, and the possible loss of the entire premium paid for options purchased by the Funds. See Note 2 for additional disclosures related to options transactions.
11. MARKET RISK
Overall market risks may also affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as domestic economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels and political events affect the securities markets. Local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issue, recessions and depressions, or other events could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and could result in increased liquidity risk. The Fund could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns. During a general market downturn, multiple asset classes may be negatively affected. Changes in market conditions and interest rates can have the same impact on all types of securities and instruments.

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits 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.
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 August 31, 2024, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. 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.
We have served as the Funds’ auditor since 2004.
