Dear Shareholder,
Performance in 2023 across U.S. fixed income and equities surprised most market participants as risk assets retraced much of the significant downdraft in 2022. After falling approximately 24% in 2022, the traditional 60/40 portfolio retraced more than 50% of the down move and returned approximately 18% in 2023. As we expected, fixed-income performance was stronger in 2023, but performance was disparate, with some sectors, notably high-yield credit, delivering equity-like returns despite widespread calls for recession in 2023. High-yield sectors, such as high-yield corporates, and floating-rate assets, such as levered loans, collateralized loan obligations, and credit risk transfer, had exceptional equity-like returns, whereas longer-duration agency mortgage-backed securities and non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities exposure, while still positive for the year, underperformed corporate bonds, given the elevated levels of volatility, higher rates, lack of bank and Federal Reserve (the Fed) demand, and disappointing fund flows.
We think the policy turn is finally here, given our expectations for slowing growth, lower inflation, and higher unemployment in 2024. We were early in our expectation that growth would slow meaningfully in 2023. However, the late-cycle narrative continues to build, the growth picture began to change in the fourth quarter of 2023, and other global central banks are moving to get ahead of the potential preemptive Fed cuts in mid-2024. Lending standards remain in very restrictive territory. We believe the fiscal tailwinds of 2023 will wane in 2024 and that consumer resilience also will begin to fade. While we were humbled by the use of financial stability tools in lieu of easing the federal funds rate in 2023, expectations of slower growth, lower inflation, and higher unemployment will likely shift Fed policy toward easier monetary policy, reducing the likelihood of additional financial accidents. We will be mindful of financial stability tools, or “Fed puts,” and the balance sheet as powerful stability mechanisms to address future financial stability risks, but we think the use of Fed puts is less likely in 2024, despite the reality that the regional banks are not out of the woods.
We expect lower interest rates in 2024 in a bull-steepening move, given our expectations of slower growth, lower inflation, and the beginning of the Fed easing cycle in 2024. We believe that the Fed easing cycle will be supportive of lower interest rate volatility, which should be supportive of outperformance of mortgages and securitized credit versus corporate credit after they lagged in 2023 due to elevated interest rate volatility. We also believe 2024 will be even better for income-focused investors after last year’s mixed performance of fixed income, given the overall move higher in rates and elevated levels of volatility. We believe that a plethora of opportunities exists across fixed income, particularly in mortgage and securitized products, given the historically high current yield environment coupled with attractive credit spreads.
Thank you for your continued support.
Respectfully yours,
Sreeni Prabhu
Managing Partner, Co-CEO & Group Chief Investment Officer

Angel Oak Multi-Strategy Income Fund
How did the Fund perform during the period?
For the 12-month period that ended January 31, 2024, the Angel Oak Multi-Strategy Income Fund’s Institutional Shares (ANGIX) returned 4.54%, while its A Shares (ANGLX) and C Shares (ANGCX) returned 4.38% and 3.51%, respectively1. During the same period, the Fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 2.10%.
What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?
All sectors but the government allocation, which only made up 13.75% of Fund assets at the end of the period, have outperformed the benchmark for the one-year period.
Non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) currently stand at approximately 54% of the Fund and produced a total return of 4.81% for the trailing 12 months, contributing 2.96% to the Fund’s performance. At the end of the period, the estimated yield for the non-agency RMBS portion was 8.21%. Lower rates, lower volatility, and tighter credit spreads resulted in solid performance for most areas of mortgage credit. The agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) allocation, 13.7% of the Fund, contributed 0.21% to Fund performance due to the rally in rates and tighter spreads. The agency MBS allocation underperformed the agency MBS index by 1.28% for the period primarily due to the timing of the agency MBS purchases. Agency RMBS remain at historically attractive spreads, with current coupon zero-volatility spread for the fiscal quarter ending January 2024 at an average spread of 134 basis points (bps), widening by 15 bps year over year. If rate volatility subsides, we believe agency MBS should benefit the Fund’s performance. We believe current valuations of agency RMBS compared to both investment-grade corporate bonds and Treasuries are historic and provide enhanced total return opportunities.
The asset-backed securities (ABS) allocation of 12.60% of the Fund had a total return of 9.22% for the trailing 12 months, contributing 1.14% to the Fund’s performance. At the end of the period, the estimated yield for the ABS portion was 8.83%. Lower rates and tighter spreads in the fiscal quarter ending January 2024 benefited the auto and consumer ABS allocation. The consumer ABS exposure saw continued strength for the period, capping off a strong year of resilient performance despite robust supply and macro uncertainty. We continue to target short-duration, high-quality senior and mezzanine portions of auto ABS and consumer ABS that are wide from a historical yield and spread basis but are also poised to benefit from the yield curve steepening that we expect if the Federal Open Market Committee begins easing in 2024. Issuers tightened their underwriting standards in 2023, and the credit performance of 2023 collateral has been predominantly in line with or better than expectations. In our view, even the bottom tranches of the subprime auto and consumer loan ABS sectors should hold up well, as the bonds have robust structural features that we believe can withstand credit deterioration during a modest economic downturn. Diversification with respect to issuers, deals, and tenure shows attractive value within the space. We believe seasoning and robust structural support coupled with the deeply discounted prices of most areas of consumer ABS more than compensate investors for the perceived credit risk, considering our expectations of a growth slowdown ahead.
Collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) returned 8.94% for the one-year period, contributing 40 bps to Fund performance. The U.S. economy outperformed in 2023 as the probability for a soft landing increased throughout the year. Underlying bank loan valuations rose, and tightened Federal Reserve (the Fed) policy was a headwind for fixed-rate bonds and a tailwind to CLOs. The CLO allocation at the end of the period was at 6.55% of Fund assets, with an estimated yield of 6.95%.
Corporate bonds and commercial mortgage-backed securities continue to be minor tactical allocations within the Fund, at approximately 7% of Fund assets in total.
What is your outlook for 2024, and how is the Fund positioned?
It appears that the policy landscape is undergoing a notable shift, marked by our anticipation of decelerating economic growth, reduced inflationary pressures, and heightened unemployment levels throughout 2024.
We were early in our expectation that growth would slow meaningfully in 2023. However, the narrative of late-cycle dynamics is gaining momentum. The growth trajectory is showing signs of alteration, particularly evident in the fourth quarter of 2023, with global central banks taking proactive measures ahead of potential preemptive cuts by the Fed in mid-2024. Lending standards remain in notably restrictive territory, and the fiscal tailwinds experienced in 2023 are expected to diminish in the coming year. While we were humbled by the Fed’s use of financial stability tools in lieu of easing the federal funds rate in 2023, we believe expectations of slower growth, lower inflation, and higher unemployment will shift the Fed toward easier monetary policy,

reducing the likelihood of additional financial accidents. We will be mindful of financial stability tools, or “Fed puts,” and the balance sheet as powerful stability mechanisms to address future financial stability risks, but we think the use of Fed puts is less likely in 2024, despite the reality that regional banks are not out of the woods yet.
Even after the significant move lower in U.S. Treasury yields during the fourth quarter of 2023, we expect a continued decrease in yields in 2024 in a bull-steepening move, given our expectations of slower growth, lower inflation, and the beginning of the Fed easing cycle in 2024. We believe any easing cycle will support lower interest rate volatility, which should in turn support the outperformance of mortgages and securitized credit versus corporate credit after they lagged in 2023 due to elevated interest rate volatility. We also believe 2024 will be even better for income-focused investors after last year’s mixed performance of fixed income, given the overall increase in rates and elevated levels of volatility. We believe that a plethora of opportunities exists across fixed income, particularly in mortgage and securitized products, given the historically high current yield environment coupled with attractive credit spreads.
We continue to favor high-quality securitized products versus corporate credit. We remain selective and focused on high-quality areas with stable credit fundamentals, which include agency and non-agency RMBS, CLOs, and short-to-medium-duration consumer ABS. From a credit standpoint, we maintain an overweight position in securitized credit with an emphasis on mortgage credit.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
Investing involves risk; principal loss is possible. Investments in debt securities typically decrease when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investments in lower-rated and nonrated securities present a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities do. Investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities include additional risks that investors should be aware of, including credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity, and default, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic developments. Derivatives involve risks different from – and in certain cases, greater than – the risks presented by more traditional investments. Derivatives may involve certain costs and risks such as illiquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management, and the risk that a position could not be closed when most advantageous. Investing in derivatives could lead to losses that are greater than the amount invested. The Fund may make short sales of securities, which involves the risk that losses may exceed the original amount invested. The Fund may use leverage, which may exaggerate the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of securities in the Fund’s portfolio or higher and duplicative expenses when it invests in mutual funds, ETFs, and other investment companies. For more information on these risks and other risks of the Fund, please see the Prospectus.
Bond ratings are grades given to the bonds to indicate their credit quality as determined by rating agencies including, but not limited to, S&P and Moody’s. The firm evaluates a bond issuer’s financial strength, or its ability to pay a bond’s principal and interest in a timely fashion. Ratings are expressed as letters ranging from AAA, which is the highest grade, to D, which is the lowest grade. In limited situations, when a rating agency has not issued a formal rating, the adviser will classify the security as nonrated.
Definitions:
Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities (Agency MBS): Securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or a government-sponsored enterprise.
Agency Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (Agency RMBS): Issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or a GSE, such as the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA or Ginnie Mae), Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA or Fannie Mae), and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac). GNMA bonds are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and thus are free from default risk. While FNMA and Freddie Mac securities lack this same backing, the risk of default is negligible.
Asset-Backed Securities (ABS): Securities created by buying and bundling loans – such as residential mortgage loans, commercial loans or student loans – and creating securities backed by those assets, which are then sold to investors.
Basis Point (bps): One hundredth of one percent and is used to denote the percentage change in a financial instrument.
Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index: An unmanaged index that measures the performance of the investment-grade universe of bonds issued in the United States. The index includes institutionally traded U.S. Treasury, government-sponsored, mortgage, and corporate securities. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
Collateralized Loan Obligation (CLO): A single security backed by a pool of debt.
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (CMBS): Fixed-income investments backed by mortgages on commercial properties rather than residential real estate.
Current Coupon: Refers to a security that is trading closest to its par value without going over par. In other words, the bond’s market price is at or near to its issued face value.
Duration: Measures a portfolio’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Generally, the longer the duration, the greater the price change relative to interest rate movements.
Federal Funds Rate: A target interest rate set by the central bank in its efforts to influence short-term interest rates as part of its monetary policy strategy.
Non-Agency Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (Non-Agency RMBS): Securities issued by private institutions such as trusts and special purpose vehicles (SPVs). These bonds are not guaranteed by the U.S. government or GSEs. They typically have a more sophisticated subordination structure, which redirects the aggregate principal and interest cash flows of the underlying collateral to the individual RMBS bonds based on a set of rules, which are designed to create tranches with specific risk, coupon, and maturity characteristics.
Spread: The difference in yield between two bonds of similar maturity but different credit quality.
Subprime: Subprime mortgages are extended to borrowers with low credit scores. In general, these borrowers have damaged credit or limited credit history, along with minimal income and asset verification. Due to the higher default risk associated with these borrowers, lenders tend to charge a higher interest rate on subprime loans.
Tranche: A portion of debt or structured financing. Each portion, or tranche, is one of several related securities offered at the same time but with different risks, rewards, and maturities. A senior tranche is the highest tranche of a security, (i.e., the one deemed least risky). A mezzanine tranche is a small layer positioned between the senior tranche and a junior tranche (unrated, typically called equity tranche).
Yield Curve: The U.S. Treasury yield curve refers to a line chart that depicts the yields of short-term Treasury bills compared to the yields of long-term Treasury notes and bonds. The slope, shape, and level of yield curves may vary over time with changes in interest rates.

Angel Oak Financials Income Impact Fund
How did the Fund perform during the period?
For the 12-month period ended January 31, 2024, the Angel Oak Financials Income Impact Fund’s Institutional Class Shares (ANFIX) returned -0.88%, while its Class A Shares (ANFLX) and Class C Shares (AFLCX) returned -1.14% and -1.84%, respectively1. During the same period, the Fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate 3-5 Year Index, returned 3.60%.
What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?
The financial sector accounts for substantially all of the Fund’s assets. There are three areas of primary focus in the financial sector: community bank debt, nonbank financials debt, and community bank equity. The Fund’s financial sector asset allocation comprises approximately 77% of assets in community bank debt, approximately 20% of assets in nonbank financials debt, and approximately 2% of assets in community bank equities. In addition, approximately 2% of Fund assets are in cash and other assets.
The regional bank failures in the spring of 2023 highlighted concerns relating to the rapid rise of interest rates and the resulting impact on bank investment portfolios and accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). While the bank failures were more idiosyncratic than systemic, given their unique business models, bank debt and equity markets remained dislocated. Over the second half of 2023, contagion risk has faded as bank earnings proved resilient and stricter regulation is anticipated. Additionally, as rates rallied around the end of 2023, AOCI and capital levels improved, as did equity valuations, to some degree. Bank debt tends to lag equity performance, and we believe bank debt is well-positioned to outperform the broader fixed income market in 2024.
The bank failures and ensuing market volatility beginning in March 2023 were largely driven by liquidity concerns in conjunction with the rapid rise in interest rates. This was particularly evident in the unique business models of the failed regional banks, given their highly concentrated deposit bases and high level of uninsured deposits. Banks typically lag interest rate increases and similarly were slow to adjust deposit rates to the steep increase in interest rates this cycle. When weakness surfaced in the banking sector, depositors withdrew their funds at an unprecedented pace, and banks were forced to sell bonds out of their investment portfolios, realizing losses and, as a result, eroding their capital bases. As part of their response, regulators created a new Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP) at the discount window, allowing banks to borrow the par value of a wider range of securities so banks could avoid selling bonds and realizing losses for non-impaired securities. The BTFP was successful as part of the solution to quickly stabilize the banking system. Since then, we believe banks have worked hard to strengthen their deposit bases. Banks adjusted deposit rates higher, to levels more commensurate with market rates (pressuring net interest margins) and employed creative solutions to enhance the amount of deposit insurance available to their depositors. Additionally, over the course of 2023, the level of uninsured bank deposits improved meaningfully.
What is your outlook for 2024, and how is the Fund positioned?
From a fundamental perspective, while 2024 will likely bring with it a still-tough operating environment for banks, we believe net interest margins (NIM) pressures are abating, valuations are cheap, and mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity should accelerate. We believe navigating the rate and credit environment and managing expenses will be top of mind for bank management teams.
NIM: We believe NIM pressures should gradually fade with the Federal Reserve (the Fed) on pause. Additionally, we believe margins will continue to compress on higher funding costs in the near term, but at a decelerating pace, before stabilizing and shifting to expansion in the second half of 2024. Historically, deposit costs have continued to rise until the Fed begins cutting rates. We believe loan and securities repricing will provide an offset to higher funding costs.
Credit Quality: Given the rapid rise in interest rates over the past several quarters and the ensuing pressure on consumer and corporate debt servicing capacity, we believe credit will continue to normalize from still-low levels as of the period end. Consumer credit cycles play out faster than commercial credit cycles, and delinquencies have been increasing for both credit card and auto portfolios. We believe early signs from securitization trusts point to deceleration in the pace of delinquencies, and risk-adjusted margins remain positive.
Commercial Real Estate (CRE): We believe CRE, particularly office CRE, is a larger headwind; however, it is important to understand banks’ exposure to the CRE market. More than half of CRE resides outside the banking system, and banks tend to be

more conservative underwriters in terms of cap rates and loan-to-value ratios. With few exceptions, bank exposure to office CRE tends to be less than 5% of total loans. Over the course of 2023, banks enhanced their disclosure on CRE portfolios and built up loan loss reserves. While we believe this CRE cycle will likely be more severe than prior cycles, given the shift to increased work-from-home and hybrid work arrangements and that there remains headline risk, overall, we believe the banking sector is well-reserved and well-equipped to manage through deterioration in its CRE portfolios, particularly as CRE credit cycles tend to play out over multiple years.
M&A: The banking sector is also grappling with elevated expenses, particularly related to increasing regulation and higher deposit costs. While the biggest changes from a tougher regulatory regime are expected for regional banks with assets between $100 billion and $250 billion, we believe all banks will need to operate under a stricter regime. Incremental costs relating to compliance, risk management, etc., will pressure bank expenses. Additionally, compensation costs account for the bulk of banks expenses, and we believe technology remains a necessary investment from both cybersecurity and competitive perspectives. We believe M&A activity should reaccelerate in 2024 as banks focus on improving scale and profitability. We believe cost savings from bank consolidation are tangible and meaningful — they typically range from 20% to 30% of the acquired bank’s expenses.
In terms of Fund positioning, we believe the opportunity set is attractive across the banking spectrum. Despite the recovery in bank equities in the fourth quarter of 2023, we believe valuations remain muted. Additionally, spreads on bank debt remain at all-time wides, with little of the benefit from lower rates reflected in prices.
Bank Debt: We believe there is a fundamental mispricing of bank debt in the current market. The most typical instrument issued, subordinated debt (sub debt), is a Tier 2 regulatory capital instrument that is structured with a ten-year final maturity, with the bond becoming callable and switching from fixed rate to floating rate at year five. The key rationale for issuance is the regulatory capital treatment. Once there are less than five years to maturity, capital eligibility declines ratably over the last five years (i.e., 80% in year six, 60% in year seven, etc.). The market is pricing these bonds assuming they will be outstanding until maturity. We believe this is fundamentally incorrect. While banks are unlikely to issue below current yields, banks issue these bonds for capital purposes rather than funding purposes. Banks can fund themselves much more efficiently through alternative sources, mainly deposits. Thus, the key consideration for calling a bond and issuing new sub debt hinges on the effective cost of capital. While a case can be made for keeping these bonds outstanding for a year or two following the initial call, the debt becomes expensive funding past that point.
We are optimistic that the primary issue market will reemerge with strength in 2024 for several reasons. First, $1.8 billion of community bank debt is maturing, and we fully expect most of these banks will have to refinance those notes as they come due. Secondly, there is an additional $2 billion of debt outstanding that is already in the floating-rate period. These bonds have had their coupons reset higher and are losing regulatory capital eligibility at 20% per year, rendering the debt expensive and inefficient. Finally, approximately $4 billion of debt will enter the call/floating-rate period this year. We believe a robust primary market should also guide the secondary market, driving attractive investment opportunities across the community bank debt landscape.
Bank Equities: We believe bank equities are cheap by any measure, as a lack of conviction about the pace of rate cuts and the depth of credit normalization has been keeping investors on the sidelines. As more clarity emerges in the first half of 2024, bank equities could offer investors a compelling upside. We favor community banks with strong deposit franchises, attractive footprints, and expectations of being beneficiaries of an upcoming M&A cycle.
Across the financial services landscape more broadly, we see select opportunities for investment-grade small-cap insurance, asset management and other financial services senior debt, and residential mortgage real estate investment trust common and preferred equities. We do not anticipate the Fund’s subsector allocations in financial services will change materially in 2024.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
Investing involves risk; principal loss is possible. Investments in debt securities typically decrease when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investments in lower-rated and nonrated securities present a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities do. Investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities include additional risks that investors should be aware of, including credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity, and default, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic developments. Derivatives involve risks different from – and in certain cases, greater than – the risks presented by more traditional investments. Derivatives may involve certain costs and risks such as illiquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management, and the risk that a position could not be closed when most advantageous. Investing in derivatives could lead to losses that are greater than the amount invested. The Fund may make short sales of securities, which involves the risk that losses may exceed the original amount invested. The Fund may use leverage, which may exaggerate the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of securities in the Fund’s portfolio or higher and duplicative expenses when it invests in mutual funds, ETFs, and other investment companies. The Fund will invest in high-yield securities (also known as “junk bonds”), and securities that are not rated by any rating agencies. These high-yield securities will generally be rated BB or lower by Standard & Poor’s Rating Group or will be of equivalent quality rating from another Nationally Recognized Statistical Ratings Organization. The Fund’s ESG impact investment strategy limits the universe of investment opportunities available to the Fund and will affect the Fund’s exposure to certain issuers, sectors, regions and types of investments, which may result in the Fund forgoing opportunities to buy or sell certain securities when it might otherwise be advantageous to do so.

Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund
How did the Fund perform during the period?
For the 12-month period that ended January 31, 2024, the Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund’s Institutional Shares (ANHIX) returned 9.77%. During the same period, the Fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index, returned 9.28%.
What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?
For the period, the high-yield corporate bond allocation, which accounted for 67.1% of the Fund’s asset allocation as of January 31, 2024, returned 9.36%, slightly outperforming the benchmark Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Index return of 9.28%, and accounted for 636 basis points (bps) of the total return of the Fund.
The securitized credit allocation also outperformed the benchmark for the period. Non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities returned 14.38%, and asset-backed securities returned 12.36% compared to the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Index return of 9.28%. The high-yield securitized credit allocation accounted for 339 bps of the total return of the Fund. The positive attribution was driven primarily by allocation, given the out-of-index nature of the securitized credit allocation.
Within the high-yield corporate bond allocation, the largest positive contributor to performance was the communications sector. The positive attribution was driven by a combination of allocation and selection. The positive attribution from selection was due to the Fund being underweight one of the lowest returning sectors. In terms of selection, the biggest contribution was from a position in a large broadcast television company that is benefiting from renegotiated retransmission contracts and the beginning of a potential recovery in advertising demand.
Finance companies were the second-largest positive contributor to performance. The positive attribution was also split between allocation and selection. The positive attribution from allocation was from the Fund being overweight one of the three best performing sectors in the benchmark. From a selection perspective, the largest contribution was from a mortgage origination company that benefited from the decline in interest rates in conjunction with expectations that the Federal Reserve (the Fed) is done raising interest rates and that the next move will be to cut interest rates.
The largest detractor from performance was the electric sector. The negative attribution was due to selection and entirely attributable to a producer of wood pellets used for energy production whose management essentially decided to speculate on the price of wood pellets, resulting in material losses and liquidity issues.
Consumer cyclical was also a negative contributor to performance. The negative attribution was predominantly due to allocation. The negative attribution from allocation was from the Fund being underweight a sector that outperformed the benchmark following the Fed’s pivot toward potentially cutting rates and the increased investor optimism regarding the likelihood of a soft landing.
What is your outlook for 2024, and how is the Fund positioned?
Inflation has decelerated faster than expected, allowing the Fed to rapidly slow and then pause interest rate increases. Over the past two Federal Open Market Committee meetings, the Fed acknowledged that inflation is moving toward its 2% target and that the supply-demand imbalance for labor is beginning to reverse. They also stated that monetary policy is restrictive. As such, the Federal Reserve chairman stated in a press conference that the conditions that would underpin an interest rate cut had been discussed. The market’s takeaway was that interest rate hikes had come to an end and the next move would be a cut. We believe any subsequent move lower in interest rates will contribute to easier financial conditions and increase the chances of a soft landing. However, given the resiliency of the labor market and the vitality of the economy – not to mention that real interest rates are not that high, especially compared to pre-Global Financial Crisis levels – investors may have gotten ahead of themselves in terms of the magnitude of interest rate cuts being priced in. That said, we continue to expect the cumulative effect of monetary policy tightening and interest rate increases to negatively affect the level of economic activity and corporate credit performance. The labor market is rebalancing as the number of job openings is decreasing, wage gains are slowing, and unemployment is slowly ticking higher. Banks continue to report increases in net charge-offs, albeit off historic lows, and tighter lending standards, reducing credit extension, leading to weaker aggregate demand. Despite the softening of economic conditions, corporate credit spreads have tightened to within 90 bps off the all-time low from May 2007. As such, we are taking advantage of the underperformance of securitized credit and perceived relative value compared to high-yield corporate credit. We believe this will help mitigate the potential impact on performance.

Investing involves risk; principal loss is possible. Investments in debt securities typically decrease when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investments in lower-rated and nonrated securities present a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities do. Investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities include additional risks that investors should be aware of, including credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity, and default, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic developments. Derivatives involve risks different from – and in certain cases, greater than – the risks presented by more traditional investments. Derivatives may involve certain costs and risks such as illiquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management, and the risk that a position could not be closed when most advantageous. Investing in derivatives could lead to losses that are greater than the amount invested. For more information on these risks and other risks of the Fund, please see the Prospectus.

Angel Oak UltraShort Income Fund
How did the Fund perform during the period?
For the 12-month period that ended January 31, 2024, the Angel Oak UltraShort Income Fund’s Institutional Shares (AOUIX) returned 6.53%1, while its A Shares (AOUAX) and A1 Shares (AOUNX) returned 6.36% and 6.27%, respectively1. During the same period, the Fund’s benchmarks, the Bloomberg Short Treasury: 9-12 Months Index and the Bloomberg Short-Term Government/Corporate Index, returned 5.03% and 5.23%, respectively. The Fund outperformed the benchmarks primarily due to the overweight to credit.
What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?
The primary contributors to annual performance were income, asset-backed securities (ABS), collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), corporate bonds, and agency commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS). The primary detractor was the effective duration, which was lower than the benchmark. The Fund maintained an effective duration in the 0.7-0.9 years range, which was just below the benchmark average range of 0.8-0.9 years. Credit spreads tightened throughout 2023, particularly within ABS credit, which was the primary driver of Fund outperformance. While market valuations have improved in ABS, many sectors of securitized credit remain wide on a historical basis compared to Treasuries and corporate bonds. The Fund remains overweight in these subsectors into 2024. The average spread of the Fund ended the period at approximately +160 basis points (bps), tightening 80 bps year over year but still wide of the 2021 levels that were inside +100 bps.
The government and cash allocations increased year over year as securitized spreads tightened. Government/credit ended the period at 14%/86%, increasing the government allocation by approximately 3%. The government allocation was near the Fund’s all-time low as credit spreads were the widest since the short-term shock in March/April of 2020. The government allocation continues to focus on a diversified mix of primarily fixed- and floating-rate agency CMBS, Treasuries, and cash. The cash allocation was increased alongside an increase in floating-rate agency CMBS. The average spread of the agency CMBS ended the period at +60 bps, tightening by 16 bps, and the average price of that allocation ended at $99.4. The duration of the government allocation is approximately two months.
Portfolio managers were very bullish on securitized spreads heading into 2023 as valuations were at the widest levels since the second quarter of 2020 and corporate credit valuations improved in the second half of 2022. The Fund was positioned to take advantage of the retracement in valuations, particularly for ABS and non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS).
The ABS allocation produced a total return of 7.7%, contributing 343 bps to Fund performance. ABS spreads remained volatile throughout the period, ending at +149 bps in the Fund, tightening over 130 bps from +280 bps to start the period. The Fund continued to focus on consumer sectors of auto, credit card, and consumer loans. Total return benefited from both tighter spreads in ABS and upgrades in credit quality through de-levering structures.
The residential mortgage credit allocation produced a total return of 5.7%, contributing 143 bps to Fund performance. Residential mortgage credit underperformed corporate bonds sharply in the final quarter of 2023, setting the stage for very high potential returns in 2024. While mortgage rates remained elevated in the 6%-8% range for most of 2023, valuations began to retrace. Within the Fund, the average spread tightened 46 bps to end the period at +237 bps. Agency mortgage spreads were quite volatile in 2023 as the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) maintained their quantitative tightening campaign and the banking system was a net seller during most of the year. Additionally, the FOMC tightened the front end by 100 bps during the period, continuing to push against the rate market amid rising bank stress. Given this backdrop, residential credit tightened less than ABS and CLOs in 2023. Given the relative sector performance, the Fund looked to maintain its higher allocation in non-agency RMBS and increase it to 25%. The primary focus of the RMBS allocation is within non-qualified mortgage, prime, and nonperforming loan sectors. The allocation ended the period at an average price of $90 and a spread of approximately +240 bps.
CLOs returned 7.28% for the period, contributing 85 bps to Fund performance. CLOs were the star performers in the Fund in 2023 and were second only to ABS among the highest allocations. The U.S. economy outperformed in 2023 as the probability for a soft landing increased throughout the year. Underlying bank loan valuations rose, and tightened Federal Reserve (the Fed) policy was a headwind for fixed-rate bonds and a tailwind to CLOs. The Fund’s focus was on very short maturity, primarily AAA-rated, tranches. The CLO allocation was maintained to end the period at 12% of Fund assets. The average price finished at $99.9 and a yield to maturity of 6.1% (+117 discount margin). Corporate bonds and CMBS continue to be minor tactical allocations within the Fund, at approximately 6% of Fund assets in total.

What is your outlook heading into 2024, and how is the Fund positioned?
It appears that the policy landscape is undergoing a notable shift, marked by our anticipation of decelerating economic growth, reduced inflationary pressures, and heightened unemployment levels throughout 2024.
We were early in our expectation that growth would slow meaningfully in 2023. However, the narrative of late-cycle dynamics is gaining momentum. The growth trajectory is showing signs of alteration, particularly evident in the fourth quarter of 2023, with global central banks taking proactive measures ahead of potential preemptive cuts by the Fed in mid-2024. Lending standards remain in notably restrictive territory, and the fiscal tailwinds experienced in 2023 are expected to diminish in the coming year. While we were humbled by the Fed’s use of financial stability tools in lieu of easing the federal funds rate in 2023, we believe expectations of slower growth, lower inflation, and higher unemployment will shift the Fed toward easier monetary policy, reducing the likelihood of additional financial accidents. We will be mindful of financial stability tools, or “Fed puts,” and the balance sheet as powerful stability mechanisms to address future financial stability risks, but we think the use of Fed puts is less likely in 2024, despite the reality that regional banks are not out of the woods yet.
Even after the significant move lower in U.S. Treasury yields during the fourth quarter of 2023, we expect a continued decrease in yields in 2024 in a bull-steepening move, given our expectations of slower growth, lower inflation, and the beginning of the Fed easing cycle in 2024. We believe any easing cycle will support lower interest rate volatility, which should in turn support the outperformance of mortgages and securitized credit versus corporate credit after they lagged in 2023 due to elevated interest rate volatility. We also believe 2024 will be even better for income-focused investors after last year’s mixed performance of fixed income, given the overall increase in rates and elevated levels of volatility. We believe that a plethora of opportunities exists across fixed income, particularly in mortgage and securitized products, given the historically high current yield environment coupled with attractive credit spreads.
We expect more widening ahead for corporate credit spreads, both investment grade and high yield, and continue to favor high-quality securitized products versus corporate credit. We remain selective and focused on high-quality areas with stable credit fundamentals, which include agency and non-agency RMBS and senior short-duration consumer ABS. This outlook drives our portfolios toward neutral-to-overweight-duration positioning. From a credit standpoint, we are neutral to underweight corporate credit and overweight securitized credit with a focus on mortgage credit.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
Investing involves risk; principal loss is possible. The Fund’s derivative investments have risks, including the imperfect correlation between the value of such instruments and the underlying asset, rate or index, which creates the possibility that the loss on such instruments may be greater than the gain in the value of the underlying asset, rate or index; the loss of principal; the possible default of the other party to the transaction; and illiquidity of the derivative investments. The Fund may invest in illiquid securities and restricted securities. Investments in restricted securities could have the effect of increasing the amount of the Fund’s assets invested in illiquid securities if qualified institutional buyers are unwilling to purchase these securities. Changes in interest rates generally will cause the value of fixed-income instruments held by the Fund to vary inversely to such changes. Below investment grade instruments are commonly referred to as “junk” or high-yield instruments and are regarded as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal. Lower grade instruments may be particularly susceptible to economic downturns. The price paid by the Fund for asset-backed securities, including CLOs, the yield the Fund expects to receive from such securities and the average life of such securities are based on a number of factors, including the anticipated rate of prepayment of the underlying assets. Mortgage-backed securities are subject to the general risks associated with investing in real estate securities; that is, they may lose value if the value of the underlying real estate to which a pool of mortgages relates declines. For more information on these risks and other risks of the Fund, please see the Prospectus.
Bond ratings are grades given to the bonds to indicate their credit quality as determined by rating agencies including, but not limited to, S&P and Moody’s. The firm evaluates a bond issuer’s financial strength, or its ability to pay a bond’s principal and interest in a timely fashion. Ratings are expressed as letters ranging from AAA, which is the highest grade, to D, which is the lowest grade. In limited situations, when a rating agency has not issued a formal rating, the adviser will classify the security as nonrated.

Angel Oak Total Return Bond Fund
How did the Fund perform during the period?
For the 12-month period that ended January 31, 2024, the Angel Oak Total Return Bond Fund’s Institutional Shares (AOIIX) returned 2.24%. During the same period, the Fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 2.10%.
What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?
Contributors to the outperformance were numerous, including securitized overweights in asset-backed securities (ABS), commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), high-yield (HY) corporate bonds, and agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) relative to Treasuries. Detractors were Treasury/rates positionings, which were further out on the yield curve and underperformed shorter-duration assets. Within the credit strategies, non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) and CMBS outperformed investment-grade (IG) corporate bonds and HY outperformed IG corporate bonds, both relative to the benchmark.
Relative sector weights and bond selection drove outperformance. With the expectation that monetary policy tightening will be successful in slowing the economy and bringing down inflation, the team continues to maintain a duration in line with the benchmark, an underweight to corporate credit, and a significant overweight to securitized credit, taking advantage of what we believe is an attractive relative value compared to corporate credit, which is expected to normalize if corporate credit spreads widen and securitized credit spreads tighten if the economy slows and interest rate volatility declines as we expect.
GOVERNMENT ATTRIBUTION
The overweight to agency RMBS relative to Treasuries was a contributor to the Fund’s performance relative to the benchmark. The Treasury/rates attribution was -86 basis points (bps) versus +58 bps for the benchmark. The contribution from the U.S. MBS allocation was +117 bps, compared to 39 bps for the benchmark. Security selection outperformed within the agency MBS allocation (+3.6% vs. +1.4%). The government and cash allocation decreased 1.4% year over year to 37.5%. The U.S. MBS allocation within the Fund ended the period at approximately 35%, near unchanged year over year. Agency RMBS remain at historically attractive spreads, with current coupon zero-volatility spread for the fiscal quarter ending January 2024 at an average spread of 134 bps, widening by 15 bps year over year. If rate volatility subsides, the overweight to agency MBS should benefit the Fund’s performance. We believe current valuations of agency RMBS compared to both IG corporate bonds and Treasuries are historic and provide enhanced total return opportunities.
CREDIT ATTRIBUTION
Securitized credit within the Fund outperformed corporate credit during the period, contributing 203 bps to the Fund’s performance. Non-agency RMBS (+102 bps), non-agency CMBS (+23 bps), and ABS (+78 bps) all had positive total returns during the period, while corporate credit contributed 25 bps to Fund performance, primarily driven by the overweight to HY. The average spread of the securitized allocation ended the period at 340 bps, with an average yield of approximately 7.6%.
What is your outlook for 2024, and how is the Fund positioned?
We think the policy turn is finally here, given our expectations for slowing growth, lower inflation, and higher unemployment in 2024. However, the narrative of late-cycle dynamics is gaining momentum. The growth trajectory is showing signs of alteration, particularly evident in the fourth quarter of 2023, with global central banks taking proactive measures ahead of potential preemptive cuts by the Federal Reserve (the Fed) in mid-2024. Lending standards remain in notably restrictive territory, and the fiscal tailwinds experienced in 2023 are expected to diminish in the coming year. While we were humbled by the Fed’s use of financial stability tools in lieu of easing the federal funds rate in 2023, we believe expectations of slower growth, lower inflation, and higher unemployment will shift the Fed toward easier monetary policy, reducing the likelihood of additional financial accidents. We will be mindful of financial stability tools, or “Fed puts,” and the balance sheet as powerful stability mechanisms to address future financial stability risks, but we think the use of Fed puts is less likely in 2024, despite the reality that regional banks are not out of the woods yet.

We believe any easing cycle will support lower interest rate volatility, which should in turn support the outperformance of mortgages and securitized credit versus corporate credit after they lagged in 2023 due to elevated interest rate volatility. We also believe 2024 will be even better for income-focused investors after last year’s mixed performance of fixed income, given the overall increase in rates and elevated levels of volatility.

We expect more widening ahead for corporate credit spreads, both IG and HY, and continue to favor high-quality securitized products versus corporate credit. We remain selective and focused on high-quality areas with stable credit fundamentals, which include agency and non-agency RMBS and senior short-duration consumer ABS. This outlook drives our portfolios toward neutral-to-overweight-duration positioning. From a credit standpoint, we are neutral to underweight corporate credit and overweight securitized credit with a focus on mortgage credit.

Angel Oak UltraShort Income ETF
How did the Fund perform during the period?
For the 12-month period that ended January 31, 2024, the Angel Oak UltraShort Income ETF (the Fund) returned 6.84% based on market price and 6.78% based on net asset value. During the same period, the Fund’s benchmarks, the Bloomberg U.S. Treasury Bills Index and the Bloomberg Short-Term Government/Corporate Index, returned 5.21% and 5.23%, respectively. The Fund outperformed the benchmarks given the overweight to credit and duration.
What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?
The primary contributors to annual performance were income and duration relative to the benchmark. The Fund has a 12-month trailing distribution yield of 5.9%1. Asset class outperformance was driven by strategies within asset-backed securities (ABS), collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), and agency commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS). The primary detractors were agency RMBS and corporate bonds, which both had positive returns but less than the benchmark. The Fund maintained an effective duration in the 0.6-0.9 years range, longer than the duration of the benchmark of 0.25 years. Credit spreads tightened for most sectors in 2023. While market valuations have improved in short-duration ABS, many sectors of securitized credit remain wide on a historical basis compared to Treasuries and corporate bonds. The Fund remains overweight these subsectors into 2024. The average spread of the Fund ended the period at approximately +108 basis points (bps), and the average price finished at $99.51.
The government and cash allocation decreased year over year as the Fund continued to grow assets under management rapidly throughout 2023. Government/credit ended the period at 20%/80%, decreasing the government allocation by approximately 2%. The government allocation continues to focus on a diversified mix of primarily fixed- and floating-rate agency commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), Treasuries, and cash. The cash and Treasury allocations were decreased, while the Fund increased allocation in agency MBS markets. The average spread of agency MBS ended the period at +60 bps, tightening by 20 bps year over year, and the average price of that allocation ended at $99.0. The duration of the government allocation is approximately 4 months.
Portfolio managers were very bullish on securitized spreads heading into 2023 as valuations were at the widest levels since the second quarter of 2020 and corporate credit valuations improved in the second half of 2023. The Fund was positioned to take advantage of the retracement in valuations, particularly for ABS and non-agency RMBS.
The ABS allocation produced a total return of 7.4%, contributing 377 bps to Fund performance. ABS spreads remained volatile throughout the period, ending at +110 bps in the Fund. The Fund continued to focus on sectors of auto, credit card, and consumer loans. Total return benefited from both tighter spreads in ABS and upgrades in credit quality through de-levering structures.
The residential mortgage credit allocation produced a total return of 7.68%, contributing 155 bps to Fund performance. RMBS was the best-performing asset class in the Fund over the period. Residential mortgage credit underperformed corporate bonds sharply in the final quarter of 2023, setting the stage for very high potential returns in 2024. Agency mortgage spreads were quite volatile in 2023 as the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) maintained their quantitative tightening campaign and the banking system was a net seller during most of the year. Additionally, the FOMC tightened the front end by 100 bps during the period, continuing to push against the rate market amid rising bank stress. Given the remaining opportunity set, the Fund increased the exposure by 1%-2% year over year to end the period at 20% of Fund assets. While mortgage rates remained elevated in the 6%-8% range for most of 2023, valuations began to retrace. The primary focus of the RMBS allocation is within non-qualified mortgage, credit risk transfer, and single-family rental sectors. The allocation ended the period at an average price of $99.5 and a spread of approximately +177 bps.
CLOs returned 7.68% for the period, contributing 64 bps to Fund performance. CLOs were the star performers in short-duration credit in 2022 and were the third-best-performing sector in the Fund after RMBS and ABS. The U.S. economy outperformed in 2023 as the probability for a soft landing increased throughout the year. Underlying bank loan valuations rose, and tightening Federal Reserve policy was a headwind for fixed-rate bonds and a tailwind to CLOs. The Fund focuses on very short maturity, primarily AAA-rated, tranches. The CLO allocation was increased 2% to end the period at 9.7% of Fund assets. The average price finished at $99.9 and a yield to maturity of 5.9% (+125 discount margin).
The corporate bonds allocation returned 4.94%, contributing 25 bps to Fund performance. The Fund continued to increase the allocation to corporate bonds throughout 2023 to diversify credit risk amid tighter ABS spreads. The allocation ended the period at 7.6% of Fund assets. The corporate bonds allocation is well diversified, with 10+ subsectors.
1As of 1/31/24, the subsidized and unsubsidized 30-day SEC yields for UYLD were 5.77% and 5.51%, respectively.

What is your outlook heading into 2024, and how is the Fund positioned?
Looking to 2024, we think equity valuations appeared stretched, but fixed income remains attractively priced. We are expecting three to four cuts in 2024, which has led the team to position the Fund in a more neutral stance from a duration perspective. While the FOMC looks to be ending their tightening campaign, fixed-income investors have continued to pile in cash; money market assets reached a new high north of $8 trillion globally.
We believe that money will start to move out of cash at some point in 2024, and this will be bullish for U.S. credit fixed-income assets, particularly for securitized assets. Active fixed-income managers experienced sharp outflows in 2022, with flows more balanced in 2023. A positive flow picture could materialize in 2024 as investors leave cash to potentially find better total return opportunities amid the onset of a rate-cutting cycle. Tailwinds from shareholder inflows would likely be a strong positive technical for securitized assets, and we believe that the Fund is positioned to benefit.

Ratings are expressed as letters ranging from AAA, which is the highest grade, to D, which is the lowest grade. In limited situations, when a rating agency has not issued a formal rating, the adviser will classify the security as nonrated.
Definitions:
Agency Commercial Mortgage-Backed Security (Agency CMBS): A type of mortgage-backed security that is secured by loans on commercial properties that are issued or guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae, or another United States federal GSE or a United States federal government agency.
Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities (Agency MBS): Securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or a government-sponsored enterprise.
Agency Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (Agency RMBS): Issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or a GSE, such as the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA or Ginnie Mae), Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA or Fannie Mae), and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac). GNMA bonds are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and thus are free from default risk. While FNMA and Freddie Mac securities lack this same backing, the risk of default is negligible.
Asset-Backed Securities (ABS): Securities created by buying and bundling loans – such as residential mortgage loans, commercial loans or student loans – and creating securities backed by those assets, which are then sold to investors.
Basis Point (bps): One hundredth of one percent and is used to denote the percentage change in a financial instrument.
Bloomberg Short-Term Government/Corporate Total Return Index: An unmanaged index that represents securities that have fallen out of the US Government/Corporate Index because of the standard minimum one year maturity constraint. Sectors include treasuries, agencies, industrials, utilities and financial institutions.
Bloomberg U.S. Treasury Bills Index: An index that tracks the market for treasury bills issued by the U.S. government. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
Collateralized Loan Obligation (CLO): A single security backed by a pool of debt.
Discount Margin (DM): The average expected return of a floating-rate security that is earned in addition to the index underlying, or reference rate of, the security.
Distribution Yield: The distribution yield is calculated by annualizing actual dividends distributed for the monthly period ended on the date shown and dividing by the net asset value on the last business day for the same period. The yield does not include long-or short-term capital gains distributions.
Effective Duration: Measures a portfolio’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Generally, the longer the effective duration, the greater the price change relative to interest rate movements.
Floating Rate: A floating-rate security is an investment with interest payments that float or adjust periodically based upon a predetermined benchmark.
Non-Agency Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (Non-Agency RMBS): Securities issued by private institutions such as trusts and special purpose vehicles (SPVs). These bonds are not guaranteed by the U.S. government or GSEs. They typically have a more sophisticated subordination structure, which redirects the aggregate principal and interest cash flows of the underlying collateral to the individual RMBS bonds based on a set of rules, which are designed to create tranches with specific risk, coupon, and maturity characteristics.
Non-Qualified Mortgage (Non-QM): A loan that does not meet the standards of a qualified mortgage and uses non-traditional methods of income verification to help a borrower get approved for a home loan.
Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (RMBS): Fixed income securities with cash flows that are collateralized by residential mortgages.
Single-Family Rental (SFR): Houses or apartments that are designed to be rented by a single family or individual.
Spread: The difference in yield between two bonds of similar maturity but different credit quality.
Tranche: A portion of debt or structured financing. Each portion, or tranche, is one of several related securities offered at the same time but with different risks, rewards, and maturities. A senior tranche is the highest tranche of a security, (i.e., the one deemed least risky). A mezzanine tranche is a small layer positioned between the senior tranche and a junior tranche (unrated, typically called equity tranche).
Yield to Maturity (YTM): The total rate of return that will have been earned by a bond when it makes all interest payments and repays the original principal.

Angel Oak Income ETF
How did the Fund perform during the period?
For the 12-month period that ended January 31, 2024, the Angel Oak Income ETF (the Fund) returned 7.61% based on market price and 7.95% based on net asset value. During the same period, the Fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 2.10%.
What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?
Most of the sectors outperformed the benchmark for the one-year period. Non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) and asset-back securities (ABS), which made up 59.96% of Fund assets at the end of the period, are estimated to have returned 11.07% and 11.18% for the period, respectively, attributing roughly 6.35% to Fund performance and outperforming the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate Investment Grade Index, and the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index for the period. Collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), which made up 9.29% of Fund assets at the end of the period, are estimated to have returned 8.89% for the period, attributing roughly 0.75% to Fund performance and outperforming the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate Investment Grade Index, and the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index for the period. Detractors to performance consisted primarily of the agency RMBS allocation, which made up 20.86% of Fund assets at the end of the period and returned 0.13%, attributing roughly 0.65% to Fund performance.
Non-agency RMBS currently stands at 39.63% of the Fund and produced a total return of 11.07% for the trailing 12 months, contributing 4.36% to the Fund’s performance. At the end of the period, the estimated yield for the non-agency RMBS portion was 7.61%. Lower rates, lower volatility, and tighter credit spreads resulted in solid performance for most areas of mortgage credit. Agency RMBS remain at historically attractive spreads, with current coupon zero-volatility spread for the fiscal quarter ending January 2024 at an average spread of 134 basis points (bps), widening by 15 bps year over year. If rate volatility subsides, we believe agency mortgage-backed securities should benefit the Fund’s performance. We believe current valuations of agency RMBS compared to both investment-grade corporate bonds and Treasuries are historic and provide enhanced total return opportunities.
The ABS allocation of 19.93% of the Fund had a total return of 11.18% for the trailing 12 months, contributing 1.99% to the Fund’s performance. At the end of the period, the estimated yield for the ABS portion was 7.61%. Lower rates and tighter spreads in the fiscal quarter ending January 2024 benefited the auto and consumer ABS allocation. The consumer ABS exposure saw continued strength for the period, capping off a strong year of resilient performance despite robust supply and macro uncertainty. We continue to target short-duration, high-quality senior and mezzanine portions of auto ABS and consumer ABS that are wide from a historical yield and spread basis but are also poised to benefit from the yield curve steepening that we expect if the Federal Open Market Committee begins easing in 2024. Issuers tightened their underwriting standards in 2023, and the credit performance of 2023 collateral has been predominantly in line with or better than expectations. In our view, even the bottom tranches of the subprime auto and consumer loan ABS sectors should hold up well, as the bonds have robust structural features that we believe can withstand credit deterioration during a modest economic downturn. Diversification with respect to issuers, deals, and tenure shows attractive value within the space. We believe seasoning and robust structural support coupled with the deeply discounted prices of most areas of consumer ABS more than compensate investors for the perceived credit risk, considering our expectations of a growth slowdown ahead.
The CLO allocation at the end of the period was at 9.29% of Fund assets with an estimated yield of 6.25%. The U.S. economy outperformed in 2023 as the probability for a soft landing increased throughout the year. Underlying bank loan valuations rose, and tightened Federal Reserve (the Fed) policy was a headwind for fixed-rate bonds and a tailwind to CLOs.
Corporate bonds and non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) continue to be minor tactical allocations within the Fund, at 5.84% of Fund assets in total.
What is your outlook for 2024, and how is the Fund positioned?
It appears that the policy landscape is undergoing a notable shift, marked by our anticipation of decelerating economic growth, reduced inflationary pressures, and heightened unemployment levels throughout 2024.
We were early in our expectation that growth would slow meaningfully in 2023. However, the narrative of late-cycle dynamics is gaining momentum. The growth trajectory is showing signs of alteration, particularly evident in the fourth quarter of 2023, with global central banks taking proactive measures ahead of potential preemptive cuts by the Fed in mid-2024. Lending standards
17
remain in notably restrictive territory, and the fiscal tailwinds experienced in 2023 are expected to diminish in the coming year. While we were humbled by the Fed’s use of financial stability tools in lieu of easing the federal funds rate in 2023, we believe expectations of slower growth, lower inflation, and higher unemployment will shift the Fed toward easier monetary policy, reducing the likelihood of additional financial accidents. We will be mindful of financial stability tools, or “Fed puts,” and the balance sheet as powerful stability mechanisms to address future financial stability risks, but we think the use of Fed puts is less likely in 2024, despite the reality that regional banks are not out of the woods yet.
Even after the significant move lower in U.S. Treasury yields during the fourth quarter of 2023, we expect a continued decrease in yields in 2024 in a bull-steepening move, given our expectations of slower growth, lower inflation, and the beginning of the Fed easing cycle in 2024. We believe any easing cycle will support lower interest rate volatility, which should in turn support the outperformance of mortgages and securitized credit versus corporate credit after they lagged in 2023 due to elevated interest rate volatility. We also believe 2024 will be even better for income-focused investors after last year’s mixed performance of fixed income, given the overall increase in rates and elevated levels of volatility. We believe that a plethora of opportunities exists across fixed income, particularly in mortgage and securitized products, given the historically high current yield environment coupled with attractive credit spreads.
We continue to favor high-quality securitized products versus corporate credit. We remain selective and focused on high-quality areas with stable credit fundamentals, which include agency and non-agency RMBS, CLOs, and short-to-medium-duration consumer ABS. From a credit standpoint, we maintain an overweight position in securitized credit with an emphasis on mortgage credit,
Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
Investing involves risk; principal loss is possible. Investments in debt securities typically decrease when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investments in lower-rated and non-rated securities present a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher rated securities. Investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities include additional risks that investors should be aware of including credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity and default, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic developments. The Fund is a recently organized investment company with limited operating history. As a result, prospective investors have a limited track record or history on which to base their investment decisions. Derivatives involve risks different from, and in certain cases, greater than the risks presented by more traditional investments. Derivatives may involve certain costs and risks such as illiquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management and the risk that a position could not be closed when most advantageous. Investing in derivatives could lose more than the amount invested. The Fund may use leverage, which may exaggerate the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of securities in the Fund’s portfolio or higher and duplicative expenses when it invests in mutual funds, ETFs, and other investment companies. For more information on these risks and other risks of the Fund, please see the Prospectus.
ETFs may trade at a premium or discount to NAV. Shares of any ETF are bought and sold at market prices (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. The Fund is an actively managed ETF, which is a fund that trades like other publicly traded securities. The Fund is not an index fund and does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index.

Summary of Funds’ Expenses – (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other expenses of the Funds. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period.
Actual Expenses
The first lines of the tables below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = $8.60), then multiply the result by the numbers in the first lines under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second lines of the tables below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second lines of the tables below are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

A reverse repurchase agreement, although structured as a sale and repurchase obligation, acts as a financing transaction under which the Fund will effectively pledge certain assets as collateral to secure a short-term loan. Generally, the other party to the agreement makes the loan in an amount less than the fair value of the pledged collateral. At the maturity of the reverse repurchase agreement, the Fund will be required to repay the loan and interest and correspondingly receive back its collateral. While used as collateral, the pledged assets continue to pay principal and interest which are for the benefit of the Fund.

(a) | If the Fund is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. |
(b) | Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of credit default swap agreements on U.S. municipal issues, corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country as of year end serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. Wider credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement. A credit spread identified as “Defaulted” indicates a credit event has occurred for the referenced entity or obligation. |
(c) | The maximum potential amount the Fund could be required to pay as seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. |
(d) | Centrally cleared swap, clearing agent: Intercontinental Exchange. |

series of the Trust, which means that they can invest a higher percentage of assets in any one issuer. Investing in a non-diversified fund may entail greater risks than is normally associated with more widely diversified funds.
The Financials Income Impact Fund commenced operations on November 3, 2014, under the name “Angel Oak Flexible Income Fund.” On March 16, 2016, shareholders approved a change to the Fund’s fundamental investment policy on the concentration of investments. On December 16, 2018, the Fund’s name was changed to “Angel Oak Financials Income Fund,” and the Fund adopted a new investment policy pursuant to Rule 35d-1 under the 1940 Act and made certain other changes to the Fund’s investment strategies. On September 22, 2022, the Fund’s name was changed to “Angel Oak Financials Income Impact Fund.” As a result, the Fund’s performance during periods prior to these dates may have differed had the Fund’s current investment policies and strategies been in place at those times.
The Total Return Bond Fund commenced operations on June 4, 2021, under the name “Angel Oak Core Impact Fund.” On January 3, 2023, the Fund’s name was changed to “Angel Oak Total Return Bond Fund,” and the Fund adopted certain changes to its investment objective and principal investment strategies. As a result, the Fund’s performance during periods prior to these dates may have differed had the Fund’s current investment policies and strategies been in place at those times.
The UltraShort Income ETF and Income ETF (alone, an “ETF”, together, the “ETFs”) list and principally trade their shares on the New York Stock Exchange Arca (“NYSE”) (“Exchange”). Shares of the ETFs trade on the Exchange at market prices that may be below, at, or above the ETFs’ net asset value (“NAV”). The UltraShort Income ETF, will issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in large blocks of shares, typically 4,000 shares, called “Creation Units.” The Income ETF will issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in creation units of, typically 10,000 shares. Creation Units will be issued and redeemed in exchange for a portfolio of securities and/or a designated amount of U.S. cash, all of which were in cash during the period. Once created, shares generally will trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day in quantities less than a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of an ETF.
Shares of the ETFs may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed an Authorized Participant Agreement with Quasar Distributors, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Foreside Financial Group, LLC (doing business as ACA Group) (the “Distributor”). Most retail investors will not qualify as Authorized Participants or have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they will be unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the ETFs. Rather, most retail investors will purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and will be subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees. A purchase or redemption (i.e. creation or redemption) transaction fee of $300, payable by the Authorized Participant or Adviser, is imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase or redemption of Creation Units
Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries – As part of its investment strategy, the Multi-Strategy Income Fund invests directly or, to comply with certain regulations, through its wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries, Hyperion Loan Funding Trust (“Hyperion”) and Titan Loan Funding Trust (“Titan”), each a statutory trust organized under the laws of the state of Delaware and incorporated on August 2, 2018. On December 22, 2023, a state of Delaware Certificate of Cancellation of Statutory Trust was filed on behalf of Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC and Titan, was subsequently de-registered. Hyperion acts as an investment vehicle in order to purchase residential and commercial real estate whole loans, participations in such loans, or instruments representing the right to receive interest payments and principal due on such loans. The allocation of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund’s investments, if any, in Hyperion will vary over time and might not include all of the types of investments described below.
On January 31, 2024, investments in Hyperion represented 0.23% of the total net assets of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund.
The consolidated financial statements of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund includes the investment activity and financial statements of Hyperion. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Because the Multi-Strategy Income Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in its subsidiary, the Multi-Strategy Income Fund may be considered to be investing indirectly in some of those investments through its subsidiary. For that reason, references to the Multi-Strategy Income Fund may also encompass its subsidiary.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with the 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 Codification Topic, Financial Services-Investment Companies.
Securities Valuation and Fair Value Measurements: The Funds record their investments at fair value in accordance with fair valuation accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion of changes in valuation techniques and related inputs, if any, during the period. In addition, these standards require expanded disclosure for each major category of assets. 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 (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
| • | | Level 3: significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining fair value of investments based on the best information available) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
Investments in registered open-end management investment companies, including money market funds, will be valued based upon the NAV of such investments and are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Fair values for long-term debt securities, including asset-backed securities (“ABS”), mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”), collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), corporate obligations, and whole loans are normally determined on the basis of valuations provided by independent pricing services. Vendors typically value such securities based on one or more inputs, including but not limited to, benchmark yields, transactions, bids, offers, quotations from dealers and trading systems, new issues, spreads and other relationships observed in the markets among comparable securities; and pricing models such as yield measurers calculated using factors such as cash flows, financial or collateral performance and other reference data. In addition to these inputs, cash flows, prepayment information, default rates, delinquency and loss assumptions, collateral characteristics, credit enhancements and specific deal information may be utilized. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. To the extent the significant inputs are unobservable; the values generally would be categorized as Level 3.
Equity securities, including preferred stocks, that are traded on a national securities exchange, except those listed on the Nasdaq Global Market®, Nasdaq Global Select Market® and the Nasdaq Capital Market® exchanges (collectively, “Nasdaq”), are valued at the last sale price at the close of that exchange. Securities traded on Nasdaq will be valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price. If, on a particular day, an exchange-listed or Nasdaq security does not trade, then: (i) the security shall be valued at the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked prices at the close of the exchange; or (ii) the security shall be valued at the latest sales price on the Composite Market (defined below) for the day such security is being valued. “Composite Market” means a consolidation of the trade information provided by national securities and foreign exchanges and over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets as published by a pricing service. In the event market quotations or Composite Market pricing are not readily available, fair value will be determined in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees (“Board”). All equity securities that are not traded on a listed exchange are valued at the last sale price at the close of the OTC market. If a non-exchange listed security does not trade on a particular day, then the mean between the last quoted bid and asked price will be used as long as it continues to reflect the value of
144

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (continued)
the security. If the mean is not available, then bid price can be used as long as the bid price continues to reflect the value of the security. Otherwise, fair value will be determined in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Board. These securities will generally be categorized as Level 3 securities. When using the market quotations or close prices provided by the pricing service and when the market is considered active, the security will be classified as a Level 1 security. Sometimes, an equity security owned by the Funds will be valued by the pricing service with factors other than market quotations or when the market is considered inactive. When this happens, the security will be classified as a Level 2 security.
Short term debt securities having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. These investments are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Reverse repurchase agreements and repurchase agreements are priced at their acquisition cost, and assessed for credit adjustments, which represents fair value. These securities will generally be categorized as Level 2 securities.
Financial derivative instruments, such as futures contracts, that are traded on a national securities or commodities exchange are typically valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange. Swaps, such as credit default swaps, interest-rate swaps and currency swaps, are valued by a pricing service. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. OTC financial derivative instruments, such as certain futures contracts or swap agreements, derive their values from underlying asset prices, indices, reference rates, other inputs or a combination of these factors. These instruments are normally valued on the basis of evaluations provided by independent pricing services or broker dealer quotations. Derivatives that use similar valuation techniques as described above are typically categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Securities may be fair valued in accordance with the fair valuation procedures approved by the Board. The Valuation and Risk Management Oversight Committee is generally responsible for overseeing the Funds’ valuation processes and reports quarterly to the Board. The Board has selected Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”) as the Valuation Designee. As such, the Valuation Committee of the Adviser has been delegated the day-to-day responsibilities for making all necessary determinations of the fair value of portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or if the prices obtained from independent pricing services are deemed to be unreliable indicators of market or fair value. Representatives of the Valuation Designee’s Valuation Committee report quarterly to the Valuation and Risk Management Oversight Committee.

Federal Income Taxes: The Funds intend to elect and continue to qualify to be taxed as “regulated investment companies” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If so qualified, the Funds generally will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent they distribute substantially all of their net investment income and capital gains to shareholders. The Funds generally intend to operate in a manner such that they will not be liable for federal income or excise taxes.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (continued)
The Funds have adopted financial reporting rules regarding recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statements of Operations. During the year ended January 31, 2024, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds have reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds’ Federal and state income and Federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.
Security Transactions and Income Recognition: Investment security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are determined on a specific identification basis. Interest income and expense is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted or amortized using the effective yield method, based on each security’s estimated life and recoverable principal and recorded in interest income on the Statements of Operations. Dividend income and corporate transactions, if any, are recorded on the ex-date. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related and other ABS are recorded as components of interest income on the Statements of Operations. Payments received from certain investments held by the Funds may be comprised of dividends, capital gains and return of capital. The Funds originally estimate the expected classification of such payments. The amounts may subsequently be reclassified upon receipt of the information from the issuer. The actual character of distributions to the Funds’ shareholders will be reflected in the Form 1099 received by shareholders after the end of the calendar year.
Expenses: Expenses incurred by the Trust that do not relate to a specific Fund are allocated to the individual Funds based on each Fund’s relative net assets or another appropriate basis. Expenses attributable to any class are borne by that class. Income, realized gains and losses, unrealized appreciation and depreciation and expenses are allocated to each class based on the net assets in relation to the relative net assets of each Fund.
Dividends and Distributions: Distributions from each Fund’s net investment income are accrued daily and typically paid monthly. The Funds intend to distribute their net realized long term capital gains and their net realized short term capital gains, if any, at least annually. Distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The treatment for financial reporting purposes of distributions made to shareholders during the period from net investment income or net realized capital gains may differ from their ultimate treatment for federal income tax purposes. These differences are caused primarily by differences in the timing of the recognition of certain components of income, expense or realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes. Where such differences are permanent in nature, they are reclassified in the components of the net assets based on their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations or NAV per share of the Funds. For the year ended January 31, 2024, there were no reclassifications.
Share Valuation: The NAV per share of a class of shares of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash and other assets, attributable to that class, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) attributable to that class by the total number of shares of that class outstanding, rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ NAV will not be calculated on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading.
Use of 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Indemnifications: Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the Trust will indemnify its officers and trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from 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 which provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ 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.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid assets including coin, currency and short-term investments that typically mature in 30-90 days. Short-term investments can include U.S. Government and government agency securities, investment grade money market instruments, investment grade fixed-income securities, repurchase agreements, commercial paper and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are extremely low risk assets that are liquid and easily converted into cash. These investments are only considered equivalents if they are readily available and are not restricted by some agreement. When the Adviser believes market, economic or political conditions are unfavorable for investors, the Adviser may invest up to 100% of a Fund’s net assets in cash, cash equivalents or other short-term investments. Unfavorable market or economic conditions may include excessive volatility or a prolonged general decline in the securities markets or the U.S. economy. The Adviser also may invest in these types of securities or hold cash while looking for suitable investment opportunities or to maintain liquidity. Included in Investments in unaffiliated securities at fair value on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities are investments in First American money market funds held at major financial institutions as follows:

Reverse Repurchase Agreements: A reverse repurchase agreement is the sale by the Funds of a security to a party for a specified price, with the simultaneous agreement by the Funds to repurchase that security from that party on a future date at a higher price. Proceeds from securities sold under reverse repurchase agreements are reflected as a liability on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Interest payments made are recorded as a component of interest expense on the Statements of Operations. Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the counterparty will become subject to bankruptcy or other insolvency proceedings or fail to return a security to the Funds. In such situations, the Funds may incur losses as a result of a possible decline in the value of the underlying security during the period while the Funds seek to enforce their rights, a possible lack of access to income on the underlying security during this period, or expenses of enforcing its rights.
The gross obligations for secured borrowing by the type of collateral pledged and remaining time to maturity on reverse repurchase contracts is as follows:

NOTE 3. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH PORTFOLIO ASSETS
Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed Securities and Whole Loan Risks: Prepayment risk is associated with MBS and ABS, including CLOs, and whole loans. If interest rates fall, the underlying debt may be repaid ahead of schedule, reducing the value of the Funds’ investments. If interest rates rise, there may be fewer prepayments, which would cause the average bond maturity to rise, increasing the potential for the Funds to lose money. The value of these securities may be significantly affected by changes in interest rates, the market’s perception of issuers, and the creditworthiness of the parties involved. The ability of the Funds to successfully utilize these instruments may depend on the ability of the Funds’ Adviser to forecast interest rates and
151

NOTE 3. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH PORTFOLIO ASSETS – (continued)
other economic factors correctly. These securities may have a structure that makes their reaction to interest rate changes and other factors difficult to predict, making their value highly volatile. Certain MBS may be secured by pools of mortgages on single-family, multi-family properties, as well as commercial properties. Similarly, ABS may be secured by pools of loans, such as corporate loans, student loans, automobile loans and credit card receivables. Whole loans are sold in their entirety rather than being pooled with other mortgages. Whole loans are mortgage loans sold to an investor in a secondary market. The investor purchasing the loan assumes full responsibility of the loan and all the contractual terms and rights associated with the funds. The credit risk on such loans is affected by homeowners or borrowers defaulting on their loans. The values of assets underlying mortgage-backed and ABS, including CLOs, may decline and therefore may not be adequate to cover underlying investors. To the extent the Funds focus their investments in particular types of mortgage-backed or ABS, including CLOs, and whole loans, the Funds may be more susceptible to risk factors affecting such types of investments.
Subordinated Debt of Banks and Diversified Financial Companies: The Funds may invest in subordinated debt securities, sometimes also called “junior debt”, which are debt securities for which the issuer’s obligations to make principal and interest payments are secondary to the issuer’s payment obligations to more senior debt securities. Such investments will consist primarily of debt issued by community banks or savings institutions (or their holding companies), which are subordinated to senior debt issued by the banks and deposits held by the bank, but are senior to trust preferred obligations, preferred stock and common stock issued by the bank.
Investment Company Securities: The Funds may invest in the securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, closed-end funds and open-end (mutual) funds (also called underlying funds). When a Fund invests in underlying funds it will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any fees and expenses payable directly by the underlying fund. In connection with its investments in other investment companies, a Fund will incur higher expenses, many of which may be duplicative. Furthermore, because the Funds may invest in shares of ETFs and underlying funds, their performances are directly related to the ability of the ETFs and underlying funds to meet their respective investment objectives as well as the allocation of each Fund’s assets among the ETFs and underlying funds by the Adviser. Accordingly, the Funds’ investment performance will be influenced by the investment strategies of, and risks associated with, the ETFs and underlying funds in direct proportion to the amount of assets the Funds allocate to the ETFs and underlying funds utilizing such strategies. The Adviser may be subject to potential conflicts of interest in allocating a Fund’s assets to underlying funds, such as a potential conflict in selecting affiliated underlying funds over unaffiliated underlying funds. In addition, a Fund’s portfolio managers may be subject to potential conflicts of interest in allocating the Fund’s assets among underlying funds, as certain of the Fund’s portfolio managers may also manage an affiliated underlying fund in which the Fund may invest. Both the Adviser and a Fund’s portfolio managers have a fiduciary duty to the Fund to act in the Fund’s best interest when selecting underlying funds. Under the oversight of the Board of Trustees, the Adviser will carefully analyze any such potential conflicts of interest and will take steps to minimize and, where possible, eliminate them.
High Yield Securities: The Funds may invest in below investment grade securities. These “high-yield” securities, also known as “junk bonds,” will generally be rated BB or lower by S&P or will be of equivalent quality rating from another Nationally Recognized Statistical Ratings Organization, or if unrated, considered by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.
Structured Products: The Funds may invest in certain structured products. Normally, structured products are privately offered and sold (that is, they are not registered under the securities laws); however, an active dealer market may exist for structured products that qualify for Rule 144A transactions. The risks of an investment in a structured product depend largely on the type of the collateral securities and the class of the structured product in which the Funds invest. In addition to the normal interest rate, default and other risks of fixed-income securities, structured products carry additional risks, including the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments, the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default, the Funds may invest in structured products that are subordinate to other classes, values may be volatile and disputes with the issuer may produce unexpected investment results.
Common and Preferred Stocks: The Funds may invest in common stock and preferred stock. Common stock represents an equity (ownership) interest in a company, and usually possesses voting rights and earns dividends. Dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of the issuer. Common stock generally represents the riskiest investment in a company. In addition, common stock generally has the greatest appreciation and depreciation potential because increases and decreases in earnings are usually reflected in a company’s stock price. The Funds may also invest in preferred stock. Preferred stock is a
152
Angel Oak Funds Trust
Notes to the Financial Statements - (continued)
January 31, 2024
NOTE 3. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH PORTFOLIO ASSETS – (continued)
class of stock having a preference over common stock as to the payment of dividends and the recovery of investment should a company be liquidated, although preferred stock is usually junior to the debt securities of the issuer. Preferred stock typically does not possess voting rights and its market value may change based on changes in interest rates.
The fundamental risk of investing in stock is the risk that the value of the stock might decrease. Stock values fluctuate in response to the activities of an individual company or in response to general market and/or economic conditions. Historically, common stocks have provided greater long-term returns and have entailed greater short-term risks than preferred stocks, fixed-income and money market investments. The market values of all securities, including common and preferred stocks, is based upon the market’s perception of value and not necessarily the book value of an issuer or other objective measures of a company’s worth. If you invest in the Funds, you should be willing to accept the risks of the stock market (to the extent that a Fund invests in common stock) and should consider an investment in the Funds only as a part of your overall investment portfolio.
Warrants: The Funds may invest in warrants. Warrants are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or bonds that give the holder the right to purchase a given number of shares of common stock at a specified price and time. The price of the warrant usually represents a premium over the applicable market value of the common stock at the time of the warrant’s issuance. Warrants have no voting rights with respect to the common stock, receive no dividends and have no rights with respect to the assets of the issuer. Investments in warrants involve certain risks, including the possible lack of a liquid market for the resale of the warrants, potential price fluctuations due to adverse market conditions or other factors and failure of the price of the common stock to rise. If the warrant is not exercised within the specified time period, it becomes worthless.
Futures Contracts: The Funds may enter into futures contracts to hedge various investments for risk management as well as speculative purposes. Initial margin deposits are made upon entering into futures contracts and can be either cash or securities. Secondary margin limits are required to be maintained while futures are held, as defined by each contract.
During the period a futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by “marking-to-market” on a daily basis to reflect the fair value of the contract at the end of each day’s trading. When the contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from the closing transaction and the Fund’s cost of entering into a contract. The use of futures contracts involves the risk of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the instruments and the underlying securities, or that the counterparty will fail to perform its obligations.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Should market conditions move unexpectedly, the Funds may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contract and may realize a loss. See Note 4 for information on futures contract activity during the year ended January 31, 2024.
Swaps: The Funds may invest in credit default swaps, total return swaps, interest rate swaps, equity swaps, currency swaps and other types of swaps. During the year, the Multi-Strategy Income Fund used centrally cleared credit default swaps to hedge interest risk on its portfolio. Such transactions are subject to market risk, liquidity risk, risk of default by the other party to the transaction, known as “counterparty risk,” regulatory risk and risk of imperfect correlation between the value of such instruments and the underlying assets and may involve commissions or other costs.
A credit default swap agreement may reference one or more debt securities or obligations that are not currently held by the Funds. The Funds are permitted to enter into a credit default swap as either the protection buyer or seller in the discretion of the Adviser. When buying protection under a credit default swap, the Fund is generally obligated to pay the protection seller an upfront or periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract until a credit event occurs, such as a default of the reference obligation. If no credit event occurs, the Fund may recover nothing if the swap is held through the termination date. However, if a credit event does occur, the Fund may receive the full notional value of the swap in exchange for the face amount of the obligations underlying the swap, the value of which may have significantly decreased. When selling protection under a credit default swap, the Fund receives an upfront or periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that a credit event does not occur. However, as the seller of protection, the Fund effectively adds leverage to its portfolio because it gains exposure to the notional amount of the swap. Entering into a credit default swap may subject a Fund to greater risk than if the Fund had invested in the reference obligation directly. In addition to general market risks, credit default swaps also involve illiquidity risk, counter-party risk (for OTC swaps) and credit risk.
153
Angel Oak Funds Trust
Notes to the Financial Statements - (continued)
January 31, 2024
NOTE 3. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH PORTFOLIO ASSETS – (continued)
Swap agreements are primarily entered into by institutional investors and the value of such agreements may be extremely volatile. Certain swap agreements are traded OTC between two parties, while other more standardized swaps must be transacted through a Futures Commission Merchant and centrally cleared and exchange traded. While central clearing and exchange-trading are intended to reduce counterparty credit and liquidity risk, they do not make a swap transaction risk-free. The current regulatory environment regarding swap agreements is subject to change. The Adviser will continue to monitor these developments, particularly to the extent regulatory changes affect the Funds’ ability to enter into swap agreements. See Note 4 for information on swap activity during the year ended January 31, 2024.
To Be Announced Securities: The Funds may invest in to-be-announced securities (“TBAs”). TBAs is a term that is generally used to describe forward-settling MBS. These TBAs are generally issued by U.S. Government Agencies or U.S. Government Sponsored Entities such as Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae and Ginnie Mae. The actual mortgage-backed security that will be delivered to the buyer at the time TBA trades are entered is not known, however, the terms of the acceptable pools of loans that will comprise the mortgage-backed security are determined at the time the trade is entered into (coupon rate, maturity, credit quality, etc.). Investment in TBAs will generally increase the Funds’ exposure to interest rate risk and could also expose the Funds to counterparty default risk. In order to mitigate counterparty default risk, the Funds only enter TBAs with counterparties for which the risk of default is determined to be remote.
Macroeconomic Risks: Developments such as public health crises, armed conflict, changing interest rates, inflation, supply chain disruptions, geopolitical risks, and economic sanctions may disrupt economic markets and the prolonged economic impacts of these types of developments are uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Funds invest depends on future developments, including the duration, spread, and conclusion of global events, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the value of the Funds’ investments.

NOTE 10. CREDIT AGREEMENTS
In August 2015, as amended July 26, 2023, the Multi-Strategy Income Fund entered into a $200 million secured, committed, margin facility (the “Facility”) with Société Générale, which expires in August 2024, but can be terminated prior to this date by either party with 90 days’ notice. Prior to July 26, 2023, the maximum commitment of the Facility was $400 million. Under the Facility, interest is charged at a floating rate based on the SOFR rate plus 1.85% and is payable on the last day of each interest period, which was 7.16% as of January 31, 2024. For the year ended January 31, 2024, the average principal balance and interest rate was approximately $169,041,096 and 6.81%, respectively. The Multi-Strategy Income Fund is required to pay a commitment fee under the Facility on undrawn amounts, and an additional fee if the level of debt outstanding falls below a certain percentage. During the reporting period the Multi-Strategy Income Fund was required to pay these commitment fees on undrawn amounts, which was 0.40% as of January 31, 2024. For the year ended January 31, 2024, these expense and commitment fees, amounted to $12,175,028 and are included in the Interest expense line item that is reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Under the terms of the Facility, the Multi-Strategy Income Fund is also required to satisfy certain collateral requirements and maintain a certain level of net assets. For additional information, see the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. As of January 31, 2024, the outstanding principal balance under the Facility was $100 million. The amount of the maximum loan outstanding during the period was $300 million from February 1, 2023, through April 23, 2023.
U.S. Bank, N.A. has made available to the Funds a $350 million unsecured credit facility, pursuant to a Loan Agreement (“Agreement”) effective June 8, 2016, expiring on April 28, 2024, for the purposes of having cash available to satisfy redemption requests. Prior to April 28, 2023, the credit facility was secured and had a maximum principal availability of $600 million. Advances under the Agreement would be limited to the lesser of $350 million or 20% of the unencumbered assets of the Financials Income Impact Fund, the UltraShort Income Fund, the Total Return Bond Fund, the UltraShort Income ETF, and Income ETF; or 15% of the unencumbered assets of the High Yield Opportunities Fund; or 10% of the unencumbered assets of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund. Principal is due 45 days after the initial advance and at the maturity. Interest is payable monthly in arrears. Under the credit facility, the interest rate paid by the Funds on outstanding borrowings is equal to the lender’s prime rate, minus 1.00% which was 7.50% as of January 31, 2024. For the year ended January 31, 2024, the Funds’ activity under the credit facility was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Average Principal Balance | | Average Interest Rate | | Maximum Loan Outstanding | | Period Maximum Loan was Outstanding |

NOTE 11. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS AND/OR REGULATORY UPDATES
In June 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2022-03, which amends Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2022-03”). ASU 2022-03 clarifies guidance for fair value measurement of an equity security subject to a contractual sale restriction and establishes new disclosure requirements for such equity securities. ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments on the financial statements for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025.
In December 2022, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update, ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 (“ASU 2022-06”). ASU 2022-06 is an amendment to ASU 2020-04, which provided optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden due to the discontinuation of the LIBOR and other interbank-offered based reference rates and which was effective as of March 12, 2020, through December 31, 2022. ASU 2022-06 extends the effective period through December 31, 2024. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying ASU 2022-06.
In October 2022, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted a final rule relating to Tailored Shareholder Reports for Mutual Funds and Exchange-Traded Funds; Fee Information in Investment Company Advertisements. The rule and form amendments will, among other things, require the Fund to transmit concise and visually engaging shareholder reports that highlight key information. The amendments will require that funds tag information in a structured data format and that certain more in-depth information be made available online and available for delivery free of charge to investors on request. The amendments became effective January 24, 2023. There is an 18-month transition period after the effective date of the amendments.
NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management of the Funds has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date these financial statements were issued. This evaluation did not result in any subsequent events that necessitated disclosures and/or adjustments other than the following:
Effective as of the close of business on February 16, 2024, each Fund identified in the table below as a Target Fund was reorganized into an ETF through the reorganization of the Target Fund into its corresponding Acquiring ETF identified in the table below, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, which was approved by the Board on December 6, 2023. Shareholder approval was not required to effect the Reorganization for the Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund. However, due to the increase in advisory fees with respect to the Angel Oak Total Return Bond Fund as a result of the Reorganization, shareholder approval was required for the Angel Oak Total Return Bond, in which the Fund’s sole shareholder approved the Reorganization by written consent. The Acquiring ETFs, each a series of the Trust, were established as “shell” funds, organized solely in connection with the Reorganization for the purpose of acquiring the assets and liabilities of the corresponding Target Funds and continuing the operations of the Target Funds as ETFs. The Acquiring ETFs had no performance history prior to the Reorganization.
| | |
Target Funds | | Acquiring ETFs |
Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund (the “Target High Yield Fund”) | | Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities ETF (the “Acquiring High Yield ETF”) |
Angel Oak Total Return Bond Fund (the “Target Total Return Bond Fund”) | | Angel Oak Mortgage-Backed Securities ETF (the “Acquiring MBS ETF”) |
Each Reorganization was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of shares (with an exception for fractional mutual fund shares) of the Acquiring ETFs for shares of the Target Funds of equivalent aggregate net asset value as noted below:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Total Shares | | Net Assets | | Net Asset Value Per Share | | Net Unrealized Appreciation/Depreciation |
Target High Yield Fund | | 6,810,384 | | $74,002,591 | | $10.87 | | ($2,390,998) |
Target Total Return Bond Fund | | 3,631,336 | | $30,502,641 | | $8.40 | | ($1,872,216) |
Fees and expenses incurred to effect the Reorganizations were borne by the Adviser. The management fee of the Acquiring High Yield ETF is 0.55%, which is the same as the management fee of the Target High Yield Fund. The management fee of the

Angel Oak Funds Trust
Notes to the Financial Statements - (continued)
January 31, 2024
NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS – (continued)
Acquiring MBS ETF is 0.79%, which is higher than the management fee of 0.50% for the Target Total Return Bond Fund. The Acquiring High Yield ETF is expected to experience the same overall operating expenses as compared to its corresponding Target Fund after the applicable Target Fund fee waiver, because the Acquiring High Yield ETF will have a unitary fee structure pursuant to which the Adviser agrees to pay the operating expenses with only limited exceptions. However, the overall expenses of the Acquiring MBS ETF after the applicable fee waiver are expected to be higher compared to its corresponding Target Fund after the applicable Target Fund fee waiver.
The Reorganizations did not result in a material change to the Target Funds’ investment portfolios as compared to those of the Acquiring ETFs. There are no material differences in accounting policies of the Target Funds as compared to those of the Acquiring ETFs. The Acquiring ETFs did not purchase or sell securities following the Reorganizations for purposes of realigning its investment portfolio.
Additionally, on February 28, 2024, ordinary income distributions were declared to shareholders of record as of March 1, 2024, payable March 4, 2024, as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | UltraShort Income ETF | | Income ETF | | Acquiring High Yield ETF | | Acquiring MBS ETF |
Distributions Paid | | $638,728 | | $571,470 | | $390,575 | | $113,906 |

5. Statement Regarding the Basis for the Approval of the Continuance of Investment Advisory Agreement
Pursuant to Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), at a telephonic meeting held on August 17, 2023, and an in-person meeting held on September 27-28, 2023 (the “Meetings”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Angel Oak Funds Trust (the “Trust”) considered the approval of the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement” or the “Agreement”) between the Trust, on behalf of the Angel Oak Multi-Strategy Income Fund (the “Multi-Strategy Income Fund”), the Angel Oak Financials Income Impact Fund (the “Financials Income Impact Fund”), the Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund (the “High Yield Opportunities Fund”), the Angel Oak UltraShort Income Fund (the “UltraShort Income Fund”), and the Angel Oak Total Return Bond Fund (the “Total Return Bond Fund”) (each, a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”), and Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser” or “Angel Oak”) for a one-year period. The Multi-Strategy Income Fund is the successor in interest to a fund having the same name and investment objective that was included as a series of another investment company, Valued Advisers Trust, and that was also advised by Angel Oak (the “Predecessor Multi-Strategy Income Fund”). The Predecessor Multi-Strategy Income Fund was reorganized into the Fund on April 10, 2015. The High Yield Opportunities Fund is the successor to the investment performance of the Rainier High Yield Fund (the “Predecessor High Yield Fund”) as a result of the reorganization of the Predecessor High Yield Fund into the Fund on April 15, 2016.
167
The relevant provisions of the 1940 Act specifically provide that it is the duty of the Board to request and evaluate such information as the Board determines is necessary to allow it to properly consider the renewal of the Agreement, and it is the duty of the Adviser to furnish the Trustees with information that is responsive to their request. Accordingly, in determining whether to renew the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and the Trust with respect to the Funds, the Board requested, and the Adviser provided, information and data relevant to the Board’s consideration. This included materials prepared by the Adviser, the Funds’ administrator and an independent third-party data provider (the “Outside Data Provider”) that provided the Board with information regarding the fees and expenses of each Fund, as compared to other similar mutual funds.
Following their review and consideration, the Trustees determined that the Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to the Funds would enable shareholders of the Funds to obtain high quality services at a cost that is appropriate, reasonable, and in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, including those Trustees who are not considered to be “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), unanimously approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement. In reaching their decision, the Trustees requested and obtained from the Adviser such information as they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Trustees also carefully considered profitability data and the comparative fee and expense information prepared by the Adviser. In considering the Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to the Funds, the Trustees evaluated a number of factors that they believed, in light of their reasonable business judgment, to be relevant. They based their decision on the following considerations, among others, although they did not identify any one specific consideration or any particular information that was controlling of their decision:
The nature, extent and quality of the advisory services to be provided. The Trustees concluded that Angel Oak is capable of providing high quality services to each Fund, as indicated by the nature and quality of services provided in the past to each Fund, Angel Oak’s management capabilities demonstrated with respect to each Fund, the professional qualifications and experience of the portfolio managers of each Fund, Angel Oak’s investment and management oversight processes, and the competitive investment performance of the Funds. The Trustees also determined that Angel Oak proposed to provide investment advisory services that were of the same quality as services it provided to each Fund in the past, and that these services are appropriate in scope and extent in light of the Funds’ operations, the competitive landscape of the investment company business and investor needs. On the basis of the Trustees’ assessment of the nature, extent and quality of the advisory services provided by Angel Oak, the Trustees concluded that Angel Oak is capable of continuing to generate a level of long-term investment performance that is appropriate in light of each Fund’s investment objective, policies and strategies and competitive with many other comparable investment companies.
The investment performance of the Funds. With respect to each Fund, the Trustees concluded on the basis of information derived from independent third-party data that Angel Oak had achieved investment performance that was competitive relative to the Fund’s category, as established by the Outside Data Provider (the “Category”), and a smaller peer group of comparable funds (the “Peer Group”) over longer-term trailing periods, and the Trustees took into consideration the fact that Angel Oak focuses on long-term performance results with respect to its management of the Funds and the Funds may have periods of underperformance when measured on a more short-term basis. In considering the performance of the Funds, the Trustees reviewed reports comparing each Fund’s performance to: (i) a Peer Group of comparable mutual funds; (ii) the Fund’s Category; and (iii) the Fund’s benchmark index. In addition, the Trustees considered information they had requested comparing the performance of each Fund to that of other funds identified by the Adviser as direct competitors encountered by the Adviser in the context of marketing the Funds, as of June 30, 2023.
With respect to the Multi-Strategy Income Fund (which commenced operations in June 2011), the Trustees observed that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the first quartile of the Fund’s Peer Group over the ten-year period ended June 30, 2023, and for the period since the inception of the Institutional Class shares, and in the fourth quartile over the one-, three-, and five-year periods ended June 30, 2023.The Trustees further noted that the Multi-Strategy Income Fund’s Institutional Class shares had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, over the three- and ten-year periods ended June 30, 2023, and for the period since the inception of the Institutional Class shares, and underperformed the benchmark index during the one- and five- year periods ended June 30, 2023.
With respect to the Financials Income Impact Fund (which commenced operations in November 2014), the Trustees observed that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the third quartile of the Fund’s Peer Group over the three-year period ended June 30, 2023, and in the fourth quartile for the one- and five-year periods ended June 30, 2023, and for the period since the Fund’s inception. The Trustees further noted that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate 3-5 Year Index, over the three-year period ended June 30, 2023, and the period since the Fund’s Institutional Class shares’ inception, and underperformed the benchmark index during the one- and five-year periods ended June 30, 2023.

With respect to the High Yield Opportunities Fund (which commenced operations in March 2009), the Trustees observed that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the first quartile of the Fund’s Peer Group over the one-, three-, and ten-year periods ended June 30, 2023, in the second quartile over the five-year period ended June 30, 2023, and in the third quartile for the period since the Fund’s inception. The Trustees further noted that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index, the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index, over the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended June 30, 2023, and underperformed the benchmark index during the period since the Fund’s inception.
With respect to the UltraShort Income Fund (which commenced operations in April 2018), the Trustees observed that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the third quartile of the Fund’s Peer Group over the period since the Fund’s inception, and in the fourth quartile over the one-, three-, and five-year periods ended June 30, 2023. The Trustees further noted that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index, the Bloomberg U.S. Short Treasury: 9-12 Months Index, over the three- and five-year periods ended June 30, 2023, and for the period since the Fund’s inception, and underperformed the benchmark index during the one-year period ended June 30, 2023.
With respect to the Total Return Bond Fund (which commenced operations in June 2021), the Trustees observed that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the first quartile of the Fund’s Peer Group over the period since the Fund’s inception, and in the fourth quartile over the one-year period ended June 30, 2023. The Trustees further noted that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had underperformed the Fund’s benchmark index, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, over the one-year period ended June 30, 2023, and for the period since the Fund’s inception.
On the basis of the Trustees’ assessment of the nature, extent and quality of advisory services provided by Angel Oak, the Trustees concluded that Angel Oak is capable of generating a level of long-term investment performance that is appropriate in light of each Fund’s investment objectives, policies and strategies and competitive with many other investment companies.
The cost of advisory services provided and the level of profitability. On the basis of comparative information derived from the expense data provided to the Board, the Trustees determined that the management fee of each of the Financials Income Impact Fund, UltraShort Income Fund, Multi-Strategy Income Fund, and Total Return Bond Fund was higher than the median management fee in their respective Peer Groups. They further observed that the management fee of the High Yield Opportunities Fund was lower than the median management fee in its Peer Group. The Trustees also determined that the net expense ratio of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund and Financials Income Impact Fund was higher than the median net expense ratio in its Peer Group. They noted that the net expense ratio of each of the UltraShort Income Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and High Yield Opportunities Fund was lower than the median net expense ratio for funds in their respective Peer Groups. The Board noted that the quality of services provided by Angel Oak and the past long-term performance of the Funds demonstrated that the advisory fee still offered an appropriate value for the Funds and their shareholders. In addition, the Trustees noted that Angel Oak had agreed to limit the operating expenses of each of the classes of shares of the Funds through May 31, 2024.
The Board also reviewed the fees that Angel Oak charges its other clients for discretionary portfolio management services, noting that the firm has a variety of account types with different fee arrangements, including non-U.S. registered funds (e.g., a UCITS fund) and sub-advised funds that have investment strategies similar to certain of the Funds. The Board considered the fee rates charged by Angel Oak to manage such funds and accounts. The Board took into account the unique management requirements involved in managing a registered investment company as opposed to other types of client accounts.
The Board also reviewed detailed profitability information and considered Angel Oak’s current level of profitability with respect to each Fund, and noted that Angel Oak’s profitability was acceptable and not excessive and consistent with applicable industry averages and that Angel Oak is committed to using its own resources to help improve the services it provides for the benefit of the Funds. The Trustees also noted that Angel Oak had provided information regarding its methodology for attributing profitability to each Fund, as opposed to its other lines of business. The Trustees also took into consideration the nature and extent of expenses that are borne directly by Angel Oak from its own financial resources to help to market and promote the Funds. Accordingly, on the basis of the Board’s review of the fees to be charged by Angel Oak for investment advisory services, the investment advisory and other services provided to the Funds by Angel Oak, and the estimated profitability of Angel Oak’s relationship with each Fund, the Board concluded that the level of investment advisory fees and Angel Oak’s profitability are appropriate in light of the investment advisory fees, overall expense ratio and investment performance of comparable investment companies and the historical profitability of the relationship between each Fund and Angel Oak. The Trustees considered the profitability of Angel Oak both before and after the impact of the marketing-related expenses that Angel Oak incurs out of its own resources in connection with its management of the Funds.
The extent to which economies of scale may be realized as the Funds grow and whether the advisory fees reflect possible economies of scale. While it was noted that each Fund’s investment advisory fee will not decrease as the Fund’s assets grow
169
because the Funds are not subject to investment advisory fee breakpoints, the Trustees concluded that each Fund’s investment advisory fee was appropriate in light of the projected size of the Fund and appropriately reflected the current economic environment for Angel Oak and the competitive nature of the mutual fund market. The Trustees then noted that they would have the opportunity to periodically re-examine whether each Fund had achieved economies of scale and the appropriateness of investment advisory fees payable to Angel Oak with respect to each Fund, in the future, at which time the implementation of fee breakpoints could be considered. Finally, the Trustees noted the continued improvements made to the Adviser’s infrastructure and services provided to each Fund, which had been funded by the advisory fees received by the Adviser.
Benefits to Angel Oak from its relationship with the Funds (and any corresponding benefits to the Funds). The Trustees concluded that other benefits derived by Angel Oak from its relationship with the Funds are reasonable and fair and consistent with industry practice and the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders.
Other Considerations. In approving the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Trustees determined that Angel Oak has made a substantial commitment to the recruitment and retention of high-quality personnel, and maintains the financial, compliance and operational resources reasonably necessary to manage the Funds in a professional manner that is consistent with the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders. The Trustees also concluded that Angel Oak has made a significant entrepreneurial commitment to the management and success of the Funds, which entails a substantial financial and professional commitment, including the Operating Expense Limitation Agreement under which Angel Oak has undertaken to waive a portion of its fees to the benefit of Fund shareholders to the extent necessary in accordance with the terms of the Operating Expense Limitation Agreement. The Trustees observed that those waivers were subject to recoupment under the terms of the Operating Expense Limitation. The Board also considered matters with respect to the brokerage practices of Angel Oak, including its best-execution procedures, and noted that these were reasonable and consistent with standard industry practice.
Following further discussion and the consideration of questions raised by the Independent Trustees, the Trustees determined that they had received sufficient information relating to each Fund in order to consider the approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement. It was noted that, in making their determinations, the Trustees had considered and relied upon not only the materials provided to them for use at the Meetings with respect to the proposed contract renewal, but also the information about the Funds and Angel Oak that had been provided to them at the Meetings and throughout the past year in connection with their regular Board meetings. In reaching their conclusion with respect to the continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the level of fees paid under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any one single factor as being controlling, but, rather, the Board took note of a combination of factors that had influenced their decision-making process. They noted the level and quality of investment advisory services provided by the Adviser to each of the Funds, and they found that these services continued to benefit the shareholders of the Funds and also reflected management’s overall commitment to the continued growth and development of the Funds.

The registrant has not made any substantive amendments to its code of ethics during the period covered by this report. The registrant has not granted any waivers from any provisions of the code of ethics during the period covered by this report.
A copy of the registrant’s Code of Ethics is filed herewith.
Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.
The registrant’s board of trustees has determined that there is at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee. Mr. Alvin R. Albe, Jr. is the “audit committee financial expert” and is considered to be “independent” as each term is defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR.
Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
The registrant has engaged its principal accountant to perform audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services during the past two fiscal years. “Audit services” refer to performing an audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years. “Audit-related services” refer to the assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit. “Tax services” refer to professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. The following table details the aggregate fees billed or expected to be billed for each of the last two fiscal years for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees by the principal accountant.
| | | | | | | | |
| | FYE 01/31/2024 | | | FYE 01/31/2023 | |
(a) Audit Fees | | $ | 258,750 | | | $ | 250,330 | |
(b) Audit-Related Fees | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 0 | |
(c) Tax Fees | | $ | 28,000 | | | $ | 28,000 | |
(d) All Other Fees | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 0 | |
The Audit, Financial and Administrative Oversight Committee has not adopted written pre-approval policies and procedures. Instead, the Committee has the duty and responsibility to pre-approve all auditing services and permissible non-auditing services to be provided to the Funds in accordance with its Charter and the 1940 Act. In addition, the Committee considers matters with respect to the principal accountant’s independence each year. The Committee did not approve any of the audit-related, tax or other non-audit fees described above pursuant to the “de minimis exceptions” set forth in Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) and Rule 2-01(c)(7)(ii) of Regulation S-X.
1
The Audit, Financial and Administrative Oversight Committee also has the duty and responsibility to pre-approve those non-audit services provided to the Funds’ investment adviser (and entities controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment adviser that provide ongoing services to the Funds) where the engagement relates directly to the operations or financial reporting of the Funds in accordance with the Charter of the Committee and the 1940 Act. The Committee considered whether the provision of any non-audit services rendered to the Adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Funds that were not pre-approved by the Committee because the engagement did not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
The percentage of fees billed by Cohen & Company, Ltd. applicable to non-audit services pursuant to waiver of pre-approval requirement were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | FYE 01/31/2024 | | | FYE 01/31/2023 | |
Audit-Related Fees | | | 0 | % | | | 0 | % |
Tax Fees | | | 0 | % | | | 0 | % |
All Other Fees | | | 0 | % | | | 0 | % |
All of the principal accountant’s hours spent on auditing the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year were attributed to work performed by full-time permanent employees of the principal accountant.
The following table indicates the non-audit fees billed or expected to be billed by the registrant’s accountant for services to the registrant and to the registrant’s investment adviser (and any other controlling entity) for the last two years.
| | | | | | | | |
Non-Audit Related Fees | | FYE 01/31/2024 | | | FYE 01/31/2023 | |
Registrant | | $ | 28,000 | | | $ | 28,000 | |
Registrant’s Investment Adviser | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 0 | |
The audit committee of the board of Trustees has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence and has concluded that the provision of such non-audit services by the accountant has not compromised the accountant’s independence.
The registrant has not been identified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as having filed an annual report issued by a registered public accounting firm branch or office that is located in a foreign jurisdiction where the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board is unable to inspect or completely investigate because of a position taken by an authority in that jurisdiction.
