(a) | Security exempt from registration under Rule 144A or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The security may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. The total fair value of these securities as July 31, 2024 was $92,772,420, representing 38.15% of net assets. |
(b) | Variable rate security. Interest rate resets periodically. The rate shown is the effective interest rate as of July 31, 2024. For securities based on a published reference rate and spread, the reference rate and spread (in basis points) are indicated parenthetically. Certain variable rate securities are not based on a published reference rate and spread but are determined by the issuer or agent and are based on current market conditions. These securities, therefore, do not indicate a reference rate and spread. |

YORKTOWN FUNDS
Notes to the Financial Statements
July 31, 2024
(Information as of and for the six months ended July 31, 2024 is unaudited)
American Pension Investors Trust (the “Trust”) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Each of the Yorktown Funds is a series of the Trust. The accompanying financial statements include the Growth Fund, Multi-Sector Bond Fund, Short Term Bond Fund, and Small Cap Fund (collectively the “Funds”), each a diversified series of the Trust. Each Fund offers Class A, Class L and Institutional Class shares. In addition, the Multi-Sector Bond Fund also offers Class C shares.
The Growth Fund’s investment objective is growth of capital. The Growth Fund invest primarily in the common stock of U.S. and foreign issuers, securities issued by investment companies (“Underlying Funds”), including open-end mutual funds, closed-end funds, business development companies, unit investment trusts, and foreign investment companies, long-, intermediate- or short-term bonds and other fixed-income securities, and index securities (“Index Securities”), including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and similar securities that represent interests in a portfolio of common stocks or fixed income securities seeking to track the performance of a securities index or similar benchmark.
The Multi-Sector Bond Fund’s investment objective is current income with limited credit risk. The Multi-Sector Bond Fund invests primarily in debt securities, including U.S. Government securities, corporate bonds and structured notes, common stock of U.S. and foreign issuers, securities issued by Underlying Funds, and Index Securities.
The Short Term Bond Fund’s investment objective is to seek income consistent with the preservation of capital. Under normal circumstances, the Short Term Bond Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in fixed income securities that, in the opinion of Yorktown Management & Research Company, Inc., the Funds’ investment adviser (the “Adviser”), offer the opportunity for income consistent with preservation of capital. The Short Term Bond Fund’s portfolio will have an average aggregate maturity of not more than three years.
The Small Cap Fund’s investment objective is to seek to achieve long term capital appreciation. Under normal conditions, the Adviser seeks to achieve the Small Cap Fund’s investment objective by investing at least 80% of its assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in the common stock of U.S. small capitalized (“small cap”) value companies. The Small Cap Fund may also invest in securities issued by Underlying Funds, and Index Securities, including ETFs and similar securities that represent interests in a portfolio of common stocks or fixed income securities seeking to track the performance of a securities index or similar benchmark.

Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies”.
Plan of Reorganization
The shareholders of the Yorktown Capital Appreciation Fund and Yorktown Master Allocation Fund (each, a “Target Fund” and collectively, the “Target Funds”) approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization providing for the transfer of all assets and liabilities of each Target Fund to the corresponding Acquiring Fund, as indicated below. The tax-free reorganization took place on August 25, 2023, and was designed to provide shareholders the opportunity to potentially benefit from economies of scale. For financial reporting purposes, assets received, and shares issued by the Acquiring Funds were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Target Funds was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of the Acquiring Funds’ realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.

Portfolio Valuation
The Funds’ investments in Underlying Funds are valued daily at their respective closing net asset values in accordance with the 1940 Act. Securities that are listed on U.S. exchanges (other than ETFs) are valued at the last sales price on the day the securities are valued or, lacking any sales on such day at the previous day’s closing

price. ETFs are valued at the last sales price on the ETF’s primary exchange on the day the securities are valued or, lacking any sales on such day, either at the value assigned by a nationally recognized third-party pricing service or at the previous day’s closing price. Securities listed on NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. U.S. Treasury securities and corporate bonds are valued at an evaluated mean of the bid and ask prices. The Board of Trustees has designated the Adviser as its “valuation designee” pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, subject to its oversight. Securities for which market quotations are unavailable or unreliable are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the valuation designee pursuant to its valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board of Trustees.
The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis. Generally accepted accounting principles establish a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:
| ● | Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Funds have the ability to access. |
| ● | Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. |
| ● | Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing a Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset, and would be based on the best information available. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of July 31, 2024, in valuing the Funds’ assets carried at fair value.

bankruptcies) on disbursements. A change in the assumption used for each of the inputs listed above may indicate a directionally similar change in the fair value of the investment.
Security Transactions and Investment Income
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are reported on an identified-cost basis for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts on debt securities are accreted or amortized to interest income over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Premiums for callable debt securities are amortized to the earliest call date, if the call price was less than the purchase price. If the call price was not at par and the security was not called, the security is amortized to the next call price and date.
Dividends and Distributions
Each Fund intends to distribute its net investment income and net realized long-term and short-term capital gains, if any, at least annually. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Repurchase Agreements
The Funds may invest in tri-party repurchase agreements. Securities held as collateral for tri-party repurchase agreements are maintained by the broker’s custodian bank in a segregated account until maturity of the repurchase agreement. Provisions of the repurchase agreements and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees require that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty. A custody agreement in connection with the Master Repurchase Agreement defines eligible securities for collateral in relation to each repurchase agreement. Under the Master Repurchase Agreement, if the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the counter-party enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
56
YORKTOWN FUNDS
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued
2. | Significant Accounting Policies, continued |
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Class Net Asset Values and Expenses
All income and expenses not attributable to a particular class, and realized and unrealized gains are allocated to each class proportionately for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Certain shareholder servicing and distribution fees are allocated to the particular class to which they are attributable. Expenses incurred by the Trust that do not relate to a specific fund of the Trust are allocated to the individual funds based on each fund’s relative net assets or another appropriate basis.
The Funds currently offer Class A shares which include a front-end sales charge (load). The maximum front-end sales charge is 2.25% for the Short Term Bond Fund and 5.75% for the remaining Funds. Class A shares may be purchased without a front-end sales charge under certain circumstances. A contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% is generally imposed on redemptions of Class C shares made within 13 months from the date of purchase.
Other
In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.
In the normal course of business the Funds may trade securities, including structured notes, where the risk of potential loss exists due to such things as changes in the market (market risk), the size of the companies it invests in (small company risk), or failure or inability of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risk). Structured notes are hybrid securities that generally combine both debt and equity characteristics into a single note form. The risks of investing in structured notes include unfavorable price movements in the underlying security or index and the credit risk of the issuing financial institution. There may be no guarantee of interest payments or return of principal with structured notes, and structured notes may be less liquid than other investments held by a Fund.
57
YORKTOWN FUNDS
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued
3. | Principal Risks, continued |
Market Risks — The Funds’ investments in securities expose the Funds to various risks such as, but not limited to, interest rate and equity risks.
Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed income securities, as well as structured notes, will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, as interest rates rise, the value of certain fixed income securities held by a Fund is likely to decrease. Fixed income securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities with shorter durations.
The market value of equities, such as common stocks and preferred securities, may decline due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment generally. They may also decline due to factors that affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry. Equity securities and equity related investments generally have greater market price volatility than fixed income securities.
Small Company Risks — Small company securities tend to be less liquid and more difficult to sell than those issued by larger companies. Small company stocks can be more volatile and may underperform the market or become out of favor with investors. Small company securities may be very sensitive to changing economic conditions and market downturns because the issuers may often have narrow markets, fewer product lines, and limited managerial and financial resources.
Credit and Counterparty Risks — The Funds will be exposed to credit risk due to the entities with whom they trade. A Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security or structured note is unable or unwilling to make timely principal and/or interest payments, or to otherwise honor its obligations. Securities are subject to varying degrees of credit risk, which are often reflected in credit ratings.
Similar to credit risk, the Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that an institution or other entity with which a Fund has unsettled or open transactions will default. All transactions in listed securities are settled/paid for upon delivery using approved counterparties. The risk of default is considered minimal, as delivery of securities is only made once a Fund has received payment. Payment is made on a purchase once the securities have been delivered by the counterparty. The trade will fail if either party fails to meet its obligation.

3. | Principal Risks, continued |
Sector Risk — If a Fund has significant investments in the securities of issuers within a particular sector, any development affecting that sector will have a greater impact on the value of the net assets of the Fund than would be the case if the Fund did not have significant investments in that sector. In addition, this may increase the risk of loss in the Fund and increase the volatility of the Fund’s NAV per share. For instance, economic or market factors, regulatory changes or other developments may negatively impact all companies in a particular sector, and therefore the value of the Fund’s portfolio will be adversely affected. As of July 31, 2024, the Growth Fund had 25.79% of the value of its net assets invested in stocks within the Technology sector and 25.18% of the value of its net assets invested in stocks within the Industrials sector.
4. | Investment Advisory and Accounting Services Agreements |
The Adviser, whose principal stockholder is also a trustee of the Trust, serves as the Funds’ investment adviser and manager. For its services, the Adviser receives a fee, calculated daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate as follows:
Growth Fund | 0.90% |
Multi-Sector Bond Fund | 0.40% |
Short Term Bond Fund | 0.70% |
Small Cap Fund | 0.90% |
In the interest of limiting expenses of the Funds, the Adviser has entered into a contractual expense limitation agreement with the Trust. Pursuant to the expense limitation agreement, the Adviser has agreed to waive or limit its fees and assume other expenses of the Funds (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, brokerage fees, taxes, borrowing costs such as interest and dividend expenses on securities sold short, and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of business) so that the ratio of total annual operating expenses is limited as shown below:
| Class A | Class L | Class C | Institutional Class |
Growth Fund | 0.99% | 1.99% | | 0.99% |
Short Term Bond Fund | 0.79% | 1.44% | | 0.79% |
Small Cap Fund | 1.60% | 2.35% | | 1.35% |

4. | Investment Advisory and Accounting Services Agreements, continued |
Prior to May 31, 2024, the Short Term Bond Fund’s ratio of total annual operating expenses was limited to 0.84% for Class A shares, 1.49% for Class L shares and 0.84% for Institutional Class shares. Prior to May 31, 2024, the Small Cap Fund’s ratio of total annual operating expenses was limited to 1.40% for Class A shares, 2.15% for Class L shares and 1.15% for Institutional Class shares.
The Adviser is entitled to the reimbursement of fees waived or reimbursed subject to the limitations that the reimbursement is made only for fees and expenses incurred not more than three years prior to the date of reimbursement, and the reimbursement may not be made if it would cause the applicable Fund’s annual expense limitations to be exceeded. The reimbursement amount may not include any additional charges or fees, such as interest accruable on the reimbursement account. The expense limitation agreement may be terminated only by the Board of Trustees by providing 60 days’ notice, or if the Adviser ceases to serve as adviser to the Funds. Further, any recoupments will be subject to any lower expense limitations that have been later implemented by the Board of Trustees. During the six months ended July 31, 2024, the Adviser contractually waived fees and reimbursed expenses of $134,482, $184,903 and $92,536 in the Growth Fund, Short Term Bond Fund and Small Cap Fund. As of July 31, 2024, the Adviser may seek repayment of investment advisory fee waivers and expense reimbursements as follows:

The Funds entered into a short-term credit agreement (“Line of Credit”) with Huntington National Bank (“Huntington”), expiring on May 24, 2025. Under the terms of the agreement, each of the Funds may borrow up to the lesser of 30% of a Fund’s daily market value or $25 million at an interest rate equal to the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 130 basis points. The purpose of the agreement is to meet temporary or emergency cash needs, including redemption requests that might otherwise require the untimely disposition of securities. Huntington receives an annual facility fee of 0.125% on $25 million as well as an additional annual fee of 0.125% on any unused portion of the credit facility, invoiced quarterly, for providing the Line of Credit. The Funds will not borrow money, except (a) from a bank, provided that immediately after such borrowing there is an asset coverage of 300% for all borrowings of a Fund; or (b) from a bank or other persons for temporary purposes only, provided that such temporary borrowings are in an amount not exceeding 15% of a Fund’s total assets at the time when the borrowing is made. To the extent that the line of credit is utilized, it will be collateralized by securities in the Funds’ portfolios.
As of July 31, 2024, the Funds had no outstanding borrowings under this Line of Credit.

8. | Federal Income Tax Information |
Each of the Funds is a separate taxable entity and intends to continue to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and is required to make the requisite distributions to its shareholders which will relieve it from Federal income or excise taxes. Therefore, no provision has been recorded for Federal income or excise taxes. Under current tax law, capital losses realized after October 31 may be

deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following fiscal year. Required fund distributions are based on income and capital gain amounts determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the composition of net assets and distributions for tax purposes may differ from amounts reflected in the accompanying financial statements. These differences are primarily due to differing treatment for losses deferred with respect to wash sales, and excise tax regulations. For financial reporting purposes, capital accounts and distributions to shareholders are adjusted to reflect the tax character of permanent book/tax differences.
FASB Accounting Standard Codification “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”, Topic 740 requires an evaluation of tax positions taken (or expected to be taken) in the course of preparing a Fund’s tax returns to determine whether these positions meet a “more-likely-than-not” standard that, based on the technical merits, have a more than fifty percent likelihood of being sustained by a taxing authority upon examination. The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken in the Funds’ 2023 tax returns, in addition to the Funds’ previous three open tax years. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and Commonwealth of Virginia; however the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.
At July 31, 2024, the gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments owned by the Funds, based on cost for federal income tax purposes, were as follows:
| | Growth Fund | | | Multi-Sector Bond Fund | | | Short Term Bond Fund | | | Small Cap Fund | |

Board Annual Approvals of Investment Advisory Agreements (Unaudited)
Yorktown Management & Research Company, Inc. (“Yorktown”)
The renewal of the investment advisory agreement (the “IA Agreement”) between the Trust and Yorktown, on behalf of each of the Yorktown Growth Fund, Yorktown Multi-Sector Bond Fund, Yorktown Short Term Bond Fund, and Yorktown Small Cap Fund (each a “Fund” and together the “Funds”), was approved by the Board of Trustees (“the Board”), including a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust or any person who is a party to the IA Agreement (the “Independent Trustees”), at an in-person meeting held on March 27, 2024 (the “Meeting”). The Trust’s Board considered the factors generally described below prior to approving the IA Agreement.
Counsel to the Funds and to the Independent Trustees first reviewed with the Trustees their duties and responsibilities in approving and/or renewing advisory agreements under both the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”) and state law. Counsel drew the Board’s attention to a letter sent by his firm on behalf of the Trustees to the Adviser seeking certain information as required under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, and generally reviewed the Adviser’s response to the letter, copies of which were included in the Board’s book of materials.
Counsel then advised the Board that it should discuss with specificity certain factors with respect to its considerations in renewing the IA Agreement, including: (1) the nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by the investment adviser; (2) the investment performance of the fund and the investment adviser; (3) the costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the investment adviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the fund; (4) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the fund grows; (5) whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of fund investors; (6) whether and how the board relied on comparisons of services to be rendered to and fees to be paid by the fund with the services provided by and the fees paid to other investment advisers for the services provided to and the fees paid by other clients of the fund’s investment adviser; and (7) any benefits derived or to be derived by the investment adviser from the relationship with the fund, such as soft dollar arrangements by which brokers provide research to the fund or its investment adviser in return for allocating brokerage. In this regard, Counsel noted that the Board should consider the factors with respect to each Fund separately.
In addition to the factors discussed above, and to further assist the Board in making its determination as to whether the IA Agreement should be renewed, the Board had requested and received the following information in advance of the Meeting: the information request letter from legal counsel and the Adviser’s responses to the letter; the Adviser’s latest Form ADV; and the Adviser’s financial statements, each of which were reviewed by the Adviser during the discussions. In addition, the Board received a description of the compensation received by the Adviser from the Funds, both in the aggregate and in relation to fees charged by other advisers to similar funds, profitability information and information relating to the Adviser’s policies and procedures regarding
66
best execution, trade allocation, and soft dollar arrangements. Further, the Board received a variety of materials providing comparative data relating to the Funds and the services provided to the Funds by the Adviser. After fully discussing and reviewing the materials described above, the Trustees concluded that the materials were adequate and reasonable and moved on to the next consideration.
The Board then discussed the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser’s services to the Funds. In particular, the Board noted with approval the Adviser’s commitment to maintaining certain targeted expense ratios for the Funds, its efforts in providing comprehensive and consistent investment management to the Funds, and its efforts to maintain ongoing regulatory compliance for the Funds. The Board noted that it reviewed, on a quarterly basis, performance and management reports relating to the Funds, and those prior reviews were incorporated into the Board’s current considerations. The Board further noted that the Adviser also had assumed the obligation to provide certain operational services to the Funds. The Board discussed the operations of the Funds and agreed, with the Independent Trustees separately concurring, that the Funds had received adequate and appropriate investment management, compliance and operational services. The Board then discussed and noted that there were no material changes in personnel employed by the Adviser during the year.
The Board next reviewed information relating to the average overall expense ratios of competing funds versus the overall expense ratios of the Funds. In this regard they noted that certain Funds had expense ratios lower than the average of its peer group and others had expense ratios higher than the average of its peer group. After full review of the materials presented, the related discussions, and careful consideration, the Independent Trustees agreed that the fees charged by the Adviser under the IA Agreement appeared to be fair and reasonable at the present time in light of the services provided to the Funds and that breakpoints were not needed given the current asset levels of the Funds.
The Board next considered the investment performance of each Fund and the Adviser’s performance. The Board generally approved of each Fund’s performance. Further, the Board noted with approval that the Adviser did not succumb to “style drift” in its management of each Fund’s assets, and that each Fund was committed to maintaining its investment mandate, even if that meant underperformance during periods when that style was out of favor. The Board noted with approval the Adviser’s ongoing efforts to maintain such consistent investment discipline. The Board also noted that because the Adviser’s business was currently devoted exclusively to serving the Funds, the Adviser did not appear to realize any extraordinary ancillary benefits or profits deriving from its relationship with the Funds.
The Independent Trustees then met separately with Fund counsel and the Chief Compliance Officer to discuss the IA Agreement. At the end of their discussion, the Independent Trustees recalled the Interested Trustees and announced that they were prepared to vote on the IA Agreement.
67
After careful discussion and consideration, the Board, including the separate concurrence of the Independent Trustees, unanimously cast an affirmative vote, and determined that the renewal of the IA Agreement would be in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders. In approving the IA Agreement, the Board relied upon its own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered and the weight to be given each such factor. Further, the Board had available and availed itself of the assistance of legal counsel at all times during its consideration of the IA Agreement renewal.
