The Board of Trustees (the "Board") of World Funds Trust (the "Trust") has approved a Plan of Liquidation (the "Plan") for the Vest US Large Cap 10% Buffer Strategies VI Fund and the Vest US Large Cap 20% Buffer Strategies VI Fund (the "Vest VI Funds"), which became effective on October 1, 2025. Vest Financial LLC (the "Adviser") recommended that the Board approve the Plan due to a diminished asset base and correspondingly rising expenses of the Vest VI Funds, which the Adviser has indicated that it is no longer willing to continue to subsidize. As a result, the Board concluded that it is in the best interest of the Vest VI Funds' shareholders to liquidate the Vest VI Funds. The Vest VI Funds are expected to liquidate on or about December 15, 2025 (the "Liquidation Date").
Effective October 1, 2025, the Vest VI Funds were closed to new and subsequent investments. Until the Liquidation Date, Vest VI Funds' shareholders may continue to reinvest dividends and distributions in the Vest VI Funds or redeem their shares. Any remaining shareholders on the Liquidation Date will receive a distribution of their remaining investment value in the Vest VI Funds based on the instructions listed on your account. The sale or liquidation of your shares will generally be a taxable event. You should consult your tax advisor about your tax situation.
As shareholders redeem shares of the Vest VI Funds between October 1, 2025 and the Liquidation Date, the Vest VI Funds may not be able to maintain their stated investment goals and other investment policies. Accordingly, the Vest VI Funds may deviate from their stated investment goals and other investment policies during the period between October 1, 2025 and the Liquidation Date.
If you have questions or need assistance, please contact your financial advisor directly or the Vest VI Funds toll-free at 1-855-979-6060.

The Vest VI Funds' Prospectus, Summary Prospectuses and Statement of Additional Information have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, are incorporated by reference, and can be obtained without charge by calling the Vest VI Funds toll-free at 1-855-979-6060.
