WSTCM Credit Select Risk-Managed Fund (the “Fund”) is a diversified series of WST Investment Trust (the “Trust”), an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek total return from income and capital appreciation.

The Fund offers two classes of shares (each a “Class” and collectively the “Classes”): Institutional Shares (sold without any sales loads or distribution fees, but available only to institutional investors and certain broker-dealers and financial institutions that have entered into appropriate arrangements with the Fund) and Investor Shares (sold without any sales loads, but subject to a distribution fee of up to 0.25% per annum of the average daily net assets attributable to Investor Shares). Each Class represents an ownership interest in the same investment portfolio.

The Fund follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. The following is a summary of the Fund’s significant accounting policies used in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Securities valuation – The Fund values its portfolio securities at fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day that the NYSE is open for business. In determining the value of the Fund’s assets, portfolio securities, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), are generally valued using quotations from the primary market in which they are traded. The Fund normally uses third party pricing services to obtain market quotations. To the extent the Fund is invested in other open-end investment companies, including money market funds, that are registered under the 1940 Act and are not traded on an exchange, the Fund’s net asset value per share (“NAV”) is calculated based upon the NAVs reported by such registered open-end investment companies, and the prospectuses for these companies explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing. When using quoted prices or NAVs reported by underlying investment companies and when the market is considered to be active, securities will be classified as Level 1 (see below). Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available or which cannot be accurately valued using the Fund’s normal pricing procedures are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under policies established by, and under the direction of, the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Fair value pricing may be used, for example, in situations where (i) portfolio

securities, such as securities with small capitalizations, are so thinly traded that there have been no transactions for that stock over an extended period of time; (ii) an event occurs after the close of the exchange on which the portfolio security is principally traded that is likely to change the value of the portfolio security prior to the calculation of the Fund’s NAVs; (iii) the exchange on which the portfolio security is principally traded closes early; or (iv) trading of the portfolio security is halted during the day and does not resume prior to the calculation of the Fund’s NAVs. In such cases, a portfolio security’s “fair value” price may differ from the price next available for that portfolio security using the Fund’s normal pricing procedures, and the fair value price may differ substantially from the price at which the security may ultimately be sold. Fair valued securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used.

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 Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

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.

The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments and the inputs used to value the investments as of February 28, 2021:

The Fund did not hold any derivatives or assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of or during the six months ended February 28, 2021.

Share valuation – The NAV per share of each Class of the Fund is calculated as of the close of trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day the NYSE is open for business. The NAV of each Class of the Fund is calculated by dividing the total value of the assets attributable to that Class, less liabilities attributable to that Class, by the number of shares of that Class outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share of each Class of the Fund is equal to the NAV of such Class.

Investment transactions and investment income – Investment transactions are accounted for on their trade date. Cost of investments sold is determined on a specific identification basis. Dividend income and realized capital gain distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, if any, is accrued as earned and includes amortization of discounts and premiums.

Allocation between Classes – Investment income earned, realized capital gains and losses, and unrealized appreciation and depreciation are allocated daily to each Class of the Fund based upon its proportionate share of total net assets of the Fund. Class-specific expenses are charged directly to the Class incurring the expense. Common expenses which are not attributable to a specific Class are allocated daily to the Class of shares of the Fund based upon its proportionate share of total net assets of the Fund.

Distributions to shareholders – Dividends arising from net investment income are declared and paid annually to shareholders. 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 once each year. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP, and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The tax character of distributions paid during the periods ended February 28, 2021 and August 31, 2020 was ordinary income.

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 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 Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify each year as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Qualification generally will relieve the Fund of liability for federal income taxes to the extent 100% of its net investment income and 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 Fund’s 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.

The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of February 28, 2021:

The difference between the federal income tax cost of portfolio investments and the financial statement cost of portfolio investments is due to certain timing differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses under income tax regulations and GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are temporary in nature and are primarily due to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.

As of August 31, 2020, the Fund had short-term capital loss carryforwards of $2,894,839 and long-term capital loss carryforwards of $84,351 for federal income tax purposes. These capital loss carryforwards, which do not expire, may be utilized by the Fund in the current and future years to offset net realized capital gains, if any.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits or expenses 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 Fund’s tax positions for the current and all open tax years (generally, three years) and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements.

During the six months ended February 28, 2021, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. Generally, tax authorities can examine tax returns filed during the last three years. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal.

During the six months ended February 28, 2021, the cost of purchases of investment securities and the proceeds from sales of investment securities, other than short-term investments, amounted to $88,262,377 and $78,444,891, respectively.

The Managing Principal and Chief Investment Officer of Wilbanks, Smith & Thomas Asset Management, LLC, d/b/a WST Capital Management (the “Adviser”) and the chair of its Investment Committee is also the President and a Trustee of the Trust. Certain other officers of the Trust are also officers of the Adviser, or of Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“Ultimus”), the Trust’s administrator, transfer agent, and fund accounting agent.

COMPENSATION OF TRUSTEES

Trustees of the Trust who are affiliated with the Adviser receive no fees from the Fund. The Fund pays Trustees who are not affiliated with the Adviser a fee of $8,500 each year, plus $500 for each meeting attended in person and $200 for each meeting attended by telephone. The Fund reimburses each Trustee and officer of the Trust for his or her travel and other expenses related to attendance at Board or committee meetings, if any.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

The Fund’s investments are managed by the Adviser pursuant to the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays the Adviser an advisory fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 0.60% of its average daily net assets.

The Adviser has entered into an Expense Limitation Agreement (“ELA”) with the Fund under which it has agreed to waive or reduce its fees and to assume other expenses of the Fund, if necessary, in an amount that limits the annual operating expenses of the Fund (exclusive of interest, taxes, brokerage fees and commissions, other expenditures that are capitalized in accordance with GAAP, acquired fund fees and expenses, other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business, and payment, if any, under a Rule 12b-1 Distribution Plan) to not more than 1.15% of the average daily net assets allocable to each Class until January 1, 2022. Accordingly, during the six months ended February 28, 2021, the Adviser reimbursed other expenses of $324 and $835 with respect to the Institutional Shares and Investor Shares, respectively. Any fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the Adviser are not subject to recoupment. It is expected that the Fund’s ELA will continue from year-to-year provided such continuance is approved by the Board. The Board may terminate the ELA of the Fund at any time. The Adviser may also terminate the Fund’s ELA at the end of the then-current term upon not less than 90 days’ notice to the Trust.

Effective November 7, 2020, the Chief Compliance Officer of the Trust (the “CCO”) is an employee of the Adviser. The Adviser, not the Trust, pays the CCO for their services.

OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS

Ultimus provides administration, accounting and transfer agency services to the Fund. The Fund pays Ultimus fees in accordance with the agreements for such services. In addition, the Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies and certain costs related to the pricing of the Fund’s portfolio securities.

Under the terms of a Distribution Agreement with the Trust, Foreside Fund Services, LLC (“Foreside”) serves as the principal underwriter and exclusive agent for the distribution of shares of the Fund. The Fund pays Foreside a fee for its services.

Prior to November 7, 2020, pursuant to a Compliance Consulting Agreement with Key Bridge Compliance LLC (“Key Bridge”), Key Bridge provided the Chief Compliance Officer and compliance services to the Trust. The Adviser, not the Fund, paid Key Bridge a fee for these services.

The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act that allows Investor Shares of the Fund to pay for certain expenses related to the distribution of such Shares, including, but not limited to, payments to securities dealers and other persons (including Foreside) who are engaged in the sale of Investor Shares of the Fund or who render shareholder support services not otherwise provided by Ultimus. The annual limitation for payment of expenses pursuant to the Plan is 0.25% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets allocable to Investor Shares. During the six months ended February 28, 2021, $38,400 of expenses were incurred under the Plan by Investor Shares of the Fund.

The Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in shares of one or more investment companies, including ETFs, open-end mutual funds and money market mutual funds. The Fund will incur additional indirect expenses (acquired fund fees and expenses) to the extent it invests in shares of other investment companies. As of February 28, 2021, the Fund had 58.2% of the value of its net assets invested in open-end mutual funds (including money market funds) and had 39.9% of the value of its net assets invested in ETFs.

The Fund indemnifies the Trust’s officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.

The Fund is 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 Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For non-recognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Fund is 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.

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, class specific expenses (such as Rule 12b-1 distribution fees) and other operating expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

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 expenses in the table that follow are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the most recent period (September 1, 2020) and held until the end of the period (February 28, 2021).

The table that follows 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 that 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 return used is not the Fund’s actual return, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) 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 transaction fees, such as purchase or redemption fees, and does not charge a “sales load.” 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 can be found in this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

The Trust files a complete listing of the Fund’s portfolio holdings with the SEC as of the end of the first and third quarters of each fiscal year as an exhibit to its reports on Form N-PORT. These filings are available free of charge upon request by calling the Trust toll-free at 1-866-515-4626. Furthermore, you may obtain a copy of these filings on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

A description of the policies and procedures that the Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is available without charge upon request by calling the Trust toll-free at 1-866-515-4626, or on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Information regarding how the Fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available without charge upon request by calling the Trust toll-free at 1-866-515-4626, or on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

The Board, including the Trustees who are not “interested persons,” as defined by the 1940 Act, of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”) voting separately, has reviewed and approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with Wilbanks, Smith and Thomas Asset Management, LLC, d/b/a WST Capital Management (the “Advisor”) for the WSTCM Credit Select Risk–Managed Fund (the “Fund”) for an additional annual term. Approval took place at a telephonic meeting held on October 27, 2020, instead of in-person, in reliance on the exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission granting relief from certain in-person approval requirements. At the meeting a majority of the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, were present.

In the course of their deliberations, the Board was advised by legal counsel. The Board received and reviewed a substantial amount of information provided by the Advisor in response to requests of the Board and counsel (the “Advisor Memorandum”).

In considering the Advisory Agreement for the Fund and reaching their conclusion with respect thereto, the Board recalled its review of the materials related to the Fund and the Advisor during the preceding 12 months and its numerous discussions with management of the Trust and the Advisor about the operation and performance of the Fund during that period. The Board further considered those materials and discussions and numerous other factors, including the factors described below.

group and average and median of it Morningstar category since inception period. The Board further noted that the Fund had outperformed its benchmark (Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index) for the one-year period reviewed, but underperformed for the three-year, five-year and since inception period reviews ended September 30, 2020. The Board noted that the Advisor had satisfactorily explained its performance results for the Fund. The Board also considered the consistency of the Advisor’s management of the Fund with the Fund’s investment objective and policies. Following discussion of the short- and long-term investment performance of the Fund, the Advisor’s experience in managing the Fund and separate accounts, the Advisor’s historical investment performance and other factors, the Board concluded that the investment performance of the Fund and the Advisor has been acceptable.

The Board also considered potential benefits to the Advisor in managing the Fund, including promotion of the Advisor’s name and the ability of the Advisor to place small accounts managed by the Advisor into the Fund. The Board compared the fees and expenses of the Fund (including the Fund’s management fee) to the average and median management fees and expense ratios of its Morningstar category (U.S. Nontraditional Bond Funds – $50-$100 million) and its peer group (as provided by the Advisor). In considering the comparison of fees and expense ratios between the Fund and comparable funds, the Board looked at the differences in the types of funds being compared, the style of investment management, the size of comparable funds, and the nature of the investment strategies. The Board noted that the management fee of the Fund was lower than the average and equal to the median of the management fees of the funds in its Morningstar category and lower than the average and median of the management fees of the funds in its peer group. Further, the Board noted that the Fund’s net expense ratio was higher than the median and the average net expense ratios of the funds in its Morningstar

category and lower than the median and higher than the average net expense ratios of the funds in the peer group. The Board also compared the management fee paid by the Fund to the management fees paid by other clients of the Advisor and considered the similarities and differences of services received by such clients as compared to the services being provided to the Fund. The Board noted that the fee structures applicable to the Advisor’s other clients were not indicative of any unreasonableness with respect to the management fees being paid by the Fund under the Advisory Agreement. Following these comparisons and upon further consideration and discussion of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the management fee paid to the Advisor by the Fund is fair and reasonable.

code of ethics. Following further consideration and discussion, the Board found the Advisor’s standards and practices relating to the identification and mitigation of potential conflicts of interests to be satisfactory.

Conclusion

After full consideration of the above factors, as well as other factors, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that approval of the Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. It was noted that in the Trustees’ deliberation regarding the approval of the renewal of the Advisory Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and that each individual Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors listed above.

The Trust has adopted and implemented a written liquidity risk management program (the “Program”) as required by Rule 22e-4 (the “Liquidity Rule”) under the Investment Company Act. The Program is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration, among other factors, the Fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its short and long-term cash flow projections; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources. The Liquidity Program Administrator is responsible for the Program’s administration and oversight and for reporting to the Board on at least an annual basis regarding the program’s operation and effectiveness. The Liquidity Program Administrator presented the Board with a written report assessing the Program (the “Report”) at the Board’s meeting held on October 27, 2020. The Report covered the period October 31, 2019 through September 30, 2020 (the “Review Period”). The Report noted that during the Review Period the Fund did not experience unusual stress or disruption to its operations related to purchase and redemption activity. It further noted that during the Review Period the Fund held adequate levels of cash and highly liquid investments to meet shareholder redemption activities in accordance with applicable requirements. The Report concluded that (i) the Program is reasonably designed to prevent violations of the Liquidity Rule and (ii) the Program had been effectively implemented during the Review Period.
