The registrant's board of directors has determined that there is at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee. William B. Fell 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 8/31/2026 | FYE 8/31/2025 | |
| (a) Audit Fees | $41,400 | $40,800 |
| (b) Audit-Related Fees | $0 | $0 |
| (c) Tax Fees | $9,000 | $7,500 |
| (d) All Other Fees | $0 | $0 |
(e)(1) The audit committee has adopted pre-approval policies and procedures that require the audit committee to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services of the registrant, including services provided to any entity affiliated with the registrant.
(e)(2) 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 8/31/2026 | FYE 8/31/2025 | |
| Audit-Related Fees | 0% | 0% |
| Tax Fees | 0% | 0% |
| All Other Fees | 0% | 0% |
(f) N/A
(g) 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, etc.-not sub-adviser) for the last two years.
| Non-Audit Related Fees | FYE 8/31/2026 | FYE 8/31/2025 |
| Registrant | $0 | $0 |
| Registrant's Investment Adviser | $0 | $0 |
(h) The audit committee of the board of trustees/directors 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.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
|
(a)
|
Investment Valuation. Investment securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at their market value determined by their last sales price in the principal market in which these securities are normally traded (except those traded on the NASDAQ National Market and Capital Market exchanges which are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP")), unless there are no transactions on the valuation date, in which case they are valued at the mean between the closing bid and ask prices. Securities traded over-the-counter are valued at the last reported sales price unless there is no reported sales price, in which case the mean between the closing bid and ask prices is used. Foreign securities, currencies and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies. Foreign equity securities are valued at the last sale price at the close of the exchange on which the security is principally traded.

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities 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 or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument in 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 or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds' own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and based on the best information available.

(b)
|
Investment Transactions and Investment Income. Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date except that certain dividends for foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are recorded as soon as a Fund is informed of the dividend in the exercise of reasonable diligence. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds' understanding of the applicable country's tax rules and rates. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis.
|
|
(c)
|
Expenses. Expenses that are not attributable to a particular Fund are typically allocated in proportion to each Fund's respective net assets. Expenses, other than those which are class specific, are allocated to a particular share class in proportion to each class's respective net assets. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.
|
|
(d)
|
Foreign Currency Transactions. The books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency denominated transactions (i.e., market value of investment securities, assets and liabilities, purchases and sales of investment securities, and income and expenses) are translated into U.S. dollars at the current rate of exchange.
|
|
(e)
|
Distributions to Shareholders. The Funds record distributions to shareholders on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and distributed annually. The amounts of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined under GAAP. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made in the capital accounts in the period that the differences arise. The reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.
|
|
(f)
|
Federal Income Taxes. The Funds comply with provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies, including the distribution of substantially all of the Funds' taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is considered necessary in the financial statements.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
|
(g)
|
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
|
(h)
|
Contingencies and Commitments. The Funds indemnify the Corporation's Officers and Directors for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. Each Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Corporation generally expects the risk of loss to be remote.
|
|
(i)
|
Segment Reporting. Management evaluated the impact of adopting Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, with respect to the financial statements and disclosures and determined there is no material impact for the Funds. Each Fund operates as a single segment entity. Each Fund's income, expenses, assets, and performance are regularly monitored and assessed by the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of the Funds, who serve as the chief operating decision makers, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.
