The matters discussed in this report may constitute forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. These include any advisor or portfolio manager prediction, assessment, analysis or outlook for individual securities, industries,
investment styles, market sectors and/or markets. These statements involve risks and uncertainties. In addition to the general risks described in the Trust's
prospectus, other factors bearing on these reports include the accuracy of the advisor's or portfolio manager's forecasts and predictions, the appropriateness
of the investment strategies designed by the advisor or portfolio manager and the ability of the advisor or portfolio manager to implement their strategies
efficiently and successfully. Any one or more of these factors, as well as other risks affecting the securities markets generally, could cause the actual results
of the Trust to differ materially as compared to its benchmarks.
The views expressed are subject to change and do not necessarily reflect the views of Thornburg Investment Management, Inc (the "Advisor"). This
information should not be relied upon as a recommendation or investment advice and is not intended to predict the performance of any investment or
market.
Performance data shown represents past performance and is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so shares,
when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. For performance current to the
Trust's most recent month end, visit thornburg.com or call 800-847-0200. The performance information does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a
shareholder would pay on distributions or the sale of the Trust's common shares. Returns reflect the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Common
shares are sold with no sales charge. The Advisor entered into an "Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement" with the Trust for a two-year term
beginning on the date of commencement of operations of the Trust through July 28, 2023 (the "Limitation Period") to limit the amount of Total Annual
Expenses borne by the Trust to an amount not to exceed 1.65% per annum of the Trust's net assets (the "Expense Cap"). While the Expense Limitation and
Reimbursement Agreement was in effect, to the extent that expenses for a month exceeded the Expense Cap, the Advisor reimbursed the Trust for expenses
to the extent necessary to eliminate such excess.
*Investment performance of the Trust is judged against the performance of certain market indexes. The Trust's performance is compared to a broad-based
securities market index known as the MSCI World Net Total Return USD Index (the "Primary Index"). The Trust's performance is also compared to an
additional index composed of 25% Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Total Return Index Value USD and 75% MSCI World Net Total Return USD Index (the "Blended
Index"). The Blended Index is closer in scope to the universe of securities chosen within the Trust.
.
Investment Goal and
Trust Overview
Thornburg Income Builder Opportunities Trust's (the
"Trust") investment objective is to provide current
income and additional total return.
Under normal market conditions, the Trust will seek
to achieve its investment objective by investing,
directly or indirectly, at least 80% of its Managed
Assets (as defined below) in a broad range of
income-producing securities. The Trust will invest in
both equity and debt securities of companies
located in the United States and around the globe.
The Trust may invest in non-U.S. domiciled
companies, including up to 20% of the Trust's
Managed Assets at the time of investment in equity
and debt securities of emerging market companies.
"Managed Assets" means the total assets of the
Trust, including assets attributable to leverage,
minus liabilities (other than debt representing
leverage and any preferred stock that may be
outstanding).
Performance drivers and
detractors for the reporting period
ended March 31, 2026
» The Trust outperformed the benchmark
composed of 25% Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Total
Return Index Value USD and 75% MSCI World Net
Total Return USD Index (the "Blended Index")
during the 6-month period ended March 31, 2026.
» Within equities, the Trust's focus towards
higher-dividend-paying markets abroad contributed
positively to the performance relative to the MSCI
World Net Total Return USD Index. Security
selection within the information technology and
utilities sectors as well as an overweight position in
the energy sector and selection effect in securities
in Europe boosted performance relative to the
Blended Index.
» The Trust's fixed income exposure outperformed
the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Total Return Index
Value USD during the period. Selection effect within
credit and securitized security types were primary
contributors to performance relative to the Blended
Index.

NOTE 1 -
ORGANIZATION
Thornburg Income Builder Opportunities Trust (the "Trust") is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and commenced operations on
July 28, 2021. The Trust is registered as a diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The Trust will terminate on or before August 2, 2033 (the "Termination Date"); provided, that if the
Board of Trustees of the Trust (the "Trustees") believes that under then-current market conditions it is in the best interests of the Trust to do
so, the Trust may extend the Termination Date once for up to one year, and once for an additional six months.
The Trust seeks to provide
current income and additional total return.
The Trust's investments subject it to certain risks. As of the date of this report, the principal risks of investing in the Trust include investment
and market risk, management risk, equity securities risk, small and mid-cap stock risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, inflation/deflation risk,
depositary receipts risk, emerging markets securities risk, below investment grade/high yield securities risk, foreign currency risk,
exchange-traded funds ("ETFs") and other investments companies risk, illiquid securities risk, loan risk, options risk, market discount risk,
closed-end fund risk, and limited term and eligible tender offer risk. Please see the Trust's prospectus and most recent annual shareholder
report for a discussion of those principal risks and other risks associated with an investment in the Trust.
NOTE 2 -
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The Trust
prepares its financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including investment
company accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") Accounting Standard Codification
Topic 946.
Segment Reporting:
The Trust has adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements
to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). Adoption of the standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not
affect the Trust 's financial position or the results of its operations. An operating segment is defined in Topic 280 as a component of a public
entity that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, has operating results that are regularly
reviewed by the public entity's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment
and assess its performance, and has discrete financial information available. The CODM is the President of the Trust. The Trust operates as
a single operating segment. The Trust 's income, expenses, assets, changes in net assets resulting from operations and performance are
regularly monitored and assessed as a whole by the CODM responsible for oversight functions of the Trust, using the information
presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.
Allocation of Income, Gains, Losses and Expenses:
Net investment income and any realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated
daily to each outstanding share of the Trust at the beginning of the day (after adjusting for the current capital shares activity of the Trust).
Expenses common to the Trust and each series of Thornburg Investment Trust are allocated daily among the funds based upon their
relative net asset values or other appropriate allocation methods.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders:
Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with federal
income tax regulations and may differ from GAAP, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Ordinary income dividends, if any, are declared
and paid monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually and more often if deemed necessary by Thornburg
Investment Management, Inc., the Trust's investment advisor (the "Advisor"). Dividends and distributions are paid and are reinvested in
additional shares of the Trust at net asset value per share at the close of business on the ex-dividend date, or at the shareholder's option,
paid in cash.
Foreign Currency Translation:
Portfolio investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into
U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of
investments and income items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the
transaction date. When the Trust purchases or sells foreign investments, it will customarily enter into a foreign exchange contract to
minimize foreign exchange risk from the trade date to the settlement date of such transactions. The values of such spot contracts are
included in receivable for investments sold and payable for investments purchased on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The Trust does not separately report the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from changes in market prices on investments held.
Such changes are included in Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from investments in the Statement of Operations.
Reported net realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions arise due to purchases and sales of foreign currencies, currency
gains and losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on investment transactions and the difference between the amounts of
dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Trust's books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually
received or paid. These amounts are included in Net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions in the Statement of Operations.
Semi-Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements, Continued
March 31, 2026 (Unaudited)
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency translations arises from changes in the fair value of assets and
liabilities, other than investments at period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications:
Under the Trust's organizational documents (and under separate agreements with the independent
Trustees), its officers and Trustees are provided with an indemnification, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, against certain liabilities
that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In the normal course of business, the Trust may also enter into contracts
with service providers that contain general indemnifications. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.
However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.
Investment Income:
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain income from foreign investments is recognized as soon
as information is available to the Trust. Interest income is accrued as earned. Premiums and discounts are amortized and accreted,
respectively, to first call dates or maturity dates using the effective yield method of the respective investments. These amounts are included
in Investment Income in the Statement of Operations.
Investment Transactions:
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from the sale of
investments are recorded on an identified cost basis.
Repurchase Agreements:
The Trust may invest excess cash in repurchase agreements whereby the Trust purchases investments, which
serve as collateral, with an agreement to resell such collateral to the seller at an agreed upon price at the maturity date of the repurchase
agreement. Investments pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held in custody until maturity of the repurchase agreement.
Provisions in the agreements require that the market value of the collateral is at least equal to the repurchase value in the event of default.
In the event of default, the Trust has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Under
certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the
collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. During the six months ended March 31, 2026, the Trust did not enter into repurchase
agreements.
Security Valuation:
All investments in securities held by the Trust are valued as described in Note 3.
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 and the reported amounts of increases (decreases) in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions:
The Trust may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. To the extent the
Trust engages in such transactions, it will do so for the purpose of acquiring portfolio investments consistent with the Trust's investment
objectives and not for the purpose of investment leverage or to speculate on interest rate or market changes. At the time the Trust makes a
commitment to purchase an investment on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis, the Trust will record the transaction and reflect the
value in determining its net asset value. Pursuant to current U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") guidance, a transaction
involving a when-issued security will not be deemed to involve a senior security as long as the Trust intends to settle the transaction
physically and the transaction settles within 35 days. Investments purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis do not earn
interest until the settlement date. The values of these securities held at March 31, 2026 are detailed in the Schedule of Investments.
NOTE 3 -
SECURITY VALUATION
Valuation of the Trust's portfolio investment securities is performed by the Advisor, which has been designated by the Trustees as the
Trust's "valuation designee" as that term is defined in rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. The Advisor performs this valuation function under the
supervision of the Trustees and in accordance with policies and procedures that have been adopted by the Advisor and approved by the
Trustees (the "Valuation Policy and Procedures").
In its capacity as the Trust's valuation designee, the Advisor makes good faith determinations of the fair value of portfolio securities for
which market quotations are not readily available, and otherwise complies with and administers the Valuation Policy and Procedures. The
Advisor performs those functions in significant measure through its Valuation and Pricing Committee (the "Committee"), though the Advisor
may also obtain the assistance of others, including professional pricing service providers selected and approved by the Committee. In
accordance with the Valuation Policy and Procedures, the Committee: assesses and manages the material risks associated with
determining the fair value of those Trust investments for which market quotations are not readily available; selects and applies
methodologies for determining and calculating such fair values; periodically reviews and tests the appropriateness and accuracy of those
methodologies; monitors for circumstances that may necessitate the use of fair value; and approves, monitors, and evaluates pricing
services engaged to provide evaluated prices for the Trust's investments. The Committee provides reports on its activities to the Trustees'
Audit Committee, which is responsible for overseeing the Committee's and the Advisor's work in discharging the functions under the
Valuation Policy and Procedures.

Semi-Annual Report
Notes to Financial Statements, Continued

In those instances when the Committee assists in calculating a fair value for a portfolio investment, the Committee seeks to determine the
price that the Trust would reasonably expect to receive upon a sale of the investment in an orderly transaction between market participants
on the valuation date. The Committee customarily utilizes quotations from securities broker-dealers in calculating valuations, but also may
utilize prices obtained from pricing service providers or other methods selected by the Committee. Because fair values calculated by the
Committee are estimates, the calculation of a fair value for an investment may differ from the price that would be realized by the Trust upon
a sale of the investment, and the difference could be material to the Trust's financial statements. The Committee's calculation of a fair value
for an investment may also differ from the prices obtained by other persons (including other regulated investment companies) for the
investment.
Valuation of Securities
: Securities and other portfolio investments which are listed or traded on a United States securities exchange are
generally valued at the last reported sale price on the valuation date or, if there has been no sale of the investment on that date, at the
mean between the last reported bid and ask prices for the investment on that date. Portfolio investments reported by NASDAQ are valued
at the official closing price on the valuation date. If an investment is traded on more than one exchange, the investment is considered
traded on the exchange that is normally the primary market for that investment. For securities and other portfolio investments which are
primarily listed or traded on an exchange outside the United States, the time for determining the investment's value in accordance with the
first sentence of this paragraph will be the close of that investment's primary exchange preceding the Trust's valuation time.
In any case when a market quotation is not readily available for a portfolio investment ordinarily valued by market quotation, the Committee
calculates a fair value for the investment using methodologies selected and approved by the Committee as described in the Valuation
Policy and Procedures, subject to changes or additions by the Committee. For this purpose, a market quotation is considered to be readily
available if it is a quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments that the Trust can access at the measurement date.
Pursuant to the Valuation Policy and Procedures, the Committee shall monitor for circumstances that may necessitate the use of fair
valuation methodologies, including circumstances in which a market quotation for an investment is no longer reliable or is otherwise not
readily available. For that purpose, a market quotation is not readily available when the primary market or exchange for the applicable
investment is not open for the entire scheduled day of trading. A market quotation may also not be readily available if: (a) developments
occurring after the most recent close of the applicable investment's primary exchange, but prior to the close of business on any
business day; or (b) an unusual event or significant period of time occurring since the availability of the market quotation, create a serious
question concerning the reliability of that market quotation. Additionally, a market quotation will be considered unreliable if it would require
adjustment under GAAP, or where GAAP would require consideration of additional inputs in determining the value of the investment. The
Committee customarily obtains valuations in those instances from pricing service providers approved by the Committee. Such pricing
service providers ordinarily calculate valuations using multi-factor models to adjust market prices based upon various inputs, including
exchange data, depository receipt prices, futures, index data, and other data.
Investments in U.S. closed-end funds are valued at the exchange-traded price if they are listed.
Debt obligations held by the Trust which are not listed or traded on exchanges or for which no reported market exists are ordinarily valued
at the valuation obtained from a pricing service provider approved by the Committee.
Over-the-counter options are valued by a third-party pricing service provider.
In any case when a pricing service provider fails to provide a valuation for a debt obligation held by the Trust, the Committee may calculate
a fair value for the obligation using alternative methods selected and approved by the Committee. Additionally, in cases when the
Committee believes that a valuation obtained from a pricing service provider is stale, does not reflect material factors affecting the valuation
of the investment, is significantly different than the value the Trust is likely to obtain if they sought a bid for the investment, or is otherwise
unreliable, the Committee may calculate a fair value for the obligation using an alternative method selected and approved by the
Committee.
If the market quotation for an investment is expressed in a foreign currency, that market quotation will be converted to U.S. dollars using a
foreign exchange quotation from a third-party service at the time of valuation. Foreign investments held by the Trust may be traded on days
and at times when the Trust is not open for business. Consequently, the value of Trust's investments may be significantly affected on days
when shareholders cannot purchase or sell Trust's shares.
Valuation Hierarchy:
The Trust categorizes its investments based upon the inputs used in valuing those investments, according to a
three-level hierarchy established in guidance from the FASB. Categorization of investments using this hierarchy is intended by the FASB to
maximize the use of observable inputs in valuing investments and minimize the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most
observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in valuing an investment based
on available market information. Unobservable inputs are those that reflect assumptions about the information market participants would
use in valuing an investment. An investment's level within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level input that is deemed significant to the
valuation. The methodologies and inputs used to value investments are not necessarily indications of the risk or liquidity associated with
those investments.

Notes to Financial Statements, Continued

Various inputs are used in calculating valuations for the Trust's investments. These inputs are generally summarized according to the
three-level hierarchy below:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2: Other direct or indirect significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments in active markets and other
observable inputs, such as interest rates, prepayment rates, credit ratings, etc.).
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs (including the Committee's own assumptions in calculating the fair values of investments).
Valuations for debt obligations held by the Trust are typically calculated by pricing service providers approved by the Committee and are
generally characterized as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.
On days when market volatility thresholds established by the Committee are exceeded, foreign securities for which valuations are obtained
from pricing service providers are fair valued. On these days, the foreign securities are characterized as Level 2 within the valuation
hierarchy and revert to Level 1 after the threshold is no longer exceeded.
In any case when a pricing service provider fails to provide a valuation for a debt obligation held by the Trust, the Committee calculates a
fair value for the obligation using alternative methods under procedures approved by the Committee. Additionally, in cases when
management believes that a valuation obtained from a pricing service provider is stale, does not reflect material factors affecting the
valuation of the investment, is significantly different than the value the Trust is likely to obtain if it sought a bid for the investment, or is
otherwise unreliable, the Committee calculates a fair value for the obligation using an alternative method approved by the Committee.
In a limited number of cases the Committee calculates a fair value for investments using broker quotations or other methods approved by
the Committee. When the Committee uses a single broker quotation to calculate a fair value for an investment without other significant
observable inputs, or if a fair value is calculated using other significant inputs that are considered unobservable, the investment is
characterized as Level 3 within the hierarchy. Other significant unobservable inputs used to calculate a fair value in these instances might
include an income-based valuation approach which considers discounted anticipated future cash flows from the investment and
application of discounts due to the nature or duration of any restrictions on the disposition of the investment.
Valuations based upon the use of inputs from Levels 1, 2 or 3 may not represent the actual price received upon the disposition of an
investment, and the Trust may receive a price that is lower than the valuation based upon these inputs when it sells the investment.

NOTE 4 -
INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement with the Trust, the Advisor serves as the investment advisor and performs services for the
Trust for which the fees are payable at the end of each month. Under the investment advisory agreement, The Trust pays the Advisor a
management fee based on the average daily Managed Assets of the Trust at an annual rate of 1.25%. "Managed Assets" are the total
assets of the Trust, including assets attributable to leverage, minus liabilities (other than debt representing leverage and any preferred stock
that may be outstanding).
The Trust's effective management fee for the six months ended March 31, 2026 was 1.25% of the Trust's average daily Managed Assets.
Total management fees incurred by the Trust for the six months ended March 31, 2026 are set forth in the Statement of Operations.
The Trust has entered into an administrative services agreement with the Advisor, whereby the Advisor will perform certain administrative
services related to the Trust's common shares. The Trust pays the Advisor for the services it provides as administrator its pro rata portion of

In May 2021, the Trust retained XA Investments LLC ("XAI") to provide investor support and secondary market support services in
connection with the ongoing operation of the Trust. Pursuant to the investor support services and secondary market support services
agreement with XAI, the Trust paid XAI a service fee, payable monthly in arrears, in an annual amount equal to 0.20% of the Trust's average
daily Managed Assets. The agreement with XAI was terminated effective January 16, 2023.
The Advisor entered into an "Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement" with the Trust for a two-year term beginning on the date
of commencement of operations of the Trust through July 28, 2023 to limit the amount of Total Annual Expenses, excluding certain
expenses listed below, borne by the Trust to an amount not to exceed 1.65% per annum of the Trust's net assets (the "Expense Cap"). The
Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement expired July 28, 2023. While the Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement
was in effect, to the extent that expenses for a month exceeded the Expense Cap, the Advisor reimbursed the Trust for expenses to the
extent necessary to eliminate such excess.
Certain officers and Trustees of the Trust are also officers or directors of the Advisor. The compensation of the independent Trustees is
borne by the Trust. The Trust pays no salaries or compensation to any of its interested Trustees or its officers. For their services, the
independent Trustees of the Trust receive an annual retainer in the amount of $53,000. In addition, the lead independent Trustee receives
$9,000 annually, the Chair of the Audit Committee and the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee each receives
$7,500 annually, and each other member of the Audit Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee receives $2,000
annually for each committee on which they serve. The independent Trustees are also reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
relating to attendance at meetings of the Board. The Trust also pays a portion of the Chief Compliance Officer's compensation. These
amounts are reflected as Trustee and officer fees in the Statement of Operations.
For the six months ended March 31, 2026, the percentage of direct investments in the Trust held by the Trustees and officers of the Trust
is 2.73%.
The Trust may purchase or sell portfolio securities from or to an affiliated fund provided that all such transactions will comply with
Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. For the six months ended March 31, 2026, the Trust had no such transactions with affiliated funds.
Shown below are holdings of voting securities of each portfolio holding which is considered "affiliated" to the Trust under the 1940 Act

TAXES
Federal Income Taxes:
It is the policy of the Trust to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 applicable to
regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders substantially all investment company taxable income including net
realized gains on investments (if any), and tax exempt income of the Trust. Therefore, no provision for federal income or excise tax is
required.
The Trust files income tax returns in United States federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Trust's tax
return filings generally remains open for the three years following a return's filing date. The Trust has analyzed each uncertain tax position
believed to be material in the preparation of the Trust's financial statements for the six-month period ended March 31, 2026, including open
tax years, to assess whether it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits

of the position. The Trust has not identified any such position for which an asset or liability must be reflected in the Statements of Assets
and Liabilities.

Foreign Withholding Taxes Paid:
The Trust is subject to foreign tax withholding imposed by certain foreign countries in which the Trust may
invest. Withholding taxes are incurred on certain foreign dividends and are accrued at the time the dividend is recognized based on
applicable foreign tax laws. In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740)
- Improvements to Income Taxes Disclosures, which enhances the transparency of income tax disclosures. The ASU requires public
entities, on an annual basis, to provide disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction, when material to the Trust's financial
statements.
The value of the foreign withholding taxes paid at the end of the period in relation to net assets was not significant and accordingly, a
reconciliation of income taxes paid for the six months ended March 31, 2026 is not presented. Management expects the significance of the
foreign withholding taxes paid in relation to net assets to change in future annual periods.
Foreign Withholding Tax Reclaims
: The Trust may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts
previously withheld, in view of various considerations, including recent decisions rendered by the courts in those and other jurisdictions.
The Trust would expect to record a receivable for such a reclaim based on a variety of factors, including assessment of a jurisdiction's legal
obligation to pay reclaims, the jurisdiction's administrative practices and payment history, and industry convention. To date, the Trust has
recorded no such receivable because there is limited precedent for collecting such prior year reclaims in countries other than Finland,
France and Sweden, and the likelihood of collection in those other countries remains uncertain.
Deferred Foreign Capital Gain Taxes:
The Trust is subject to a tax imposed on net realized gains of securities of certain foreign countries.
The Trust records an estimated deferred tax liability for net unrealized gains on these investments as reflected in the accompanying financial
statements. Such changes are included in Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the Statement of
Operations, if any.
NOTE 6 -
SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST
At March 31, 2026, there were 32,081,883 shares of the Trust with $0.001 par value of beneficial interest authorized. There were no
transactions in the Trust's shares of beneficial interest during the reporting period. Additional shares of the Trust may be issued under
certain circumstances, including pursuant to the Trust's Dividend Reinvestment Plan. Additional information concerning the Dividend
Reinvestment Plan is included within this report.
NOTE 7 -
INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
For the six months ended March 31, 2026, the Trust had purchase and sale transactions of investments of $60,082,527 and $80,457,434,
respectively (excluding short-term investments and U.S. Government obligations).
NOTE 8 -
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Trust may use a variety of derivative financial instruments to hedge or adjust the risks affecting its investment portfolio or to enhance
investment returns. Provisions of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification 815-10-50 ("ASC 815") require certain disclosures. The
disclosures are intended to provide users of financial statements with an understanding of the use of derivative instruments by the Trust
and how these derivatives affect the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Trust. The Trust does not designate any
derivative instruments as hedging instruments under ASC 815. During the six months ended March 31, 2026, the Trust's principal
exposure to derivative financial instruments of the type addressed by ASC 815 was investments in options.
The Trust is subject to Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act. Rule 18f-4 imposes limits on the amount of derivatives and other transactions a fund
can enter into, eliminates the asset segregation framework that had been used by funds to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act, and
requires funds whose use of derivatives is more than a limited specified exposure to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives

risk management program and appoint a derivatives risk manager. The Trust intends to operate as a "limited derivatives user" for purposes
of the derivatives transactions exemption in Rule 18f-4. To qualify as a limited derivatives user, the Trust's "derivatives exposure" is limited to
10% of its net assets subject to exclusions for certain currency or interest rate hedging transactions (as calculated in accordance with
Rule 18f-4). If the Trust fails to qualify as a "limited derivatives user" as defined in Rule 18f-4 and seeks to enter into derivatives
transactions, the Trust will be required to establish a comprehensive derivatives risk management program, to comply with certain
value-at-risk based leverage limits, to appoint a derivatives risk manager and to provide additional disclosure both publicly and to the SEC
regarding its derivatives positions.
Option Contracts
: The Trust may engage in option transactions and in doing so achieves similar objectives to what it would achieve
through the sale or purchase of individual securities. A call option, upon payment of a premium, gives the purchaser of the option the right
to buy, and the seller of the option the obligation to sell, the underlying security, index or other instrument at the exercise price.
A put option gives the purchaser of the option, upon payment of a premium, the right to sell, and the seller the obligation to buy, the
underlying security, index, or other instrument at the exercise price. To seek to offset some of the risk of a potential decline in value of
certain long positions, the Trust may also purchase put options on individual securities, broad-based securities indexes or
certain ETFs. The Trust may also seek to generate income from option premiums by writing (selling) options on a portion of the equity
securities (including securities that are convertible into equity securities) in the Trust's portfolio, on broad-based securities indexes, or
certain ETFs.
When the Trust purchases an option, it pays a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as an asset. When the Trust
writes an option, it receives a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as a liability. The asset or liability is adjusted daily
to reflect the current market value of the option. If an option expires unexercised, the Trust realizes a gain or loss to the extent of the
premium received or paid. If an option is exercised, the premium received or paid is recorded as an adjustment to the proceeds from the
sale or the cost basis of the purchase. The difference between the premium and the amount received or paid on a closing purchase or sale
transaction is also treated as a realized gain or loss. The cost of securities acquired through the exercise of call options is increased by
premiums paid. The proceeds from securities sold through the exercise of put options are decreased by the premiums paid. Gain or loss
on written options and purchased options is presented separately on the Statements of Operations as net realized gain or loss on written
options and net realized gain or loss on purchased options, respectively.
Options written by the Trust do not typically give rise to counterparty credit risk since options written obligate the Trust and not the
counterparty to perform. Exchange-traded purchased options have minimal counterparty credit risk to the Trust since the exchange's
clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default.
As of March 31, 2026, the Trust had no outstanding purchased options. The monthly average notional value of options written contracts
for the six months ended March 31, 2026 was $23,216,464.
The value of the outstanding written options recognized in the Trust's Statement of Assets and Liabilities at March 31, 2026 is disclosed in

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN
The Trust has an automatic dividend reinvestment plan (the "Plan") commonly referred to as an "opt-out" plan. Unless the registered owner
of common shares elects to receive cash by contacting Computershare (the "Plan Administrator"), all dividends declared on common
shares will be automatically reinvested by the Plan Administrator for shareholders in the Trust's Plan, in additional common shares.
Common shareholders who elect not to participate in the Plan will receive all dividends and other distributions in cash paid by check mailed
directly to the shareholder of record (or, if the common shares are held in street or other nominee name, then to such nominee) by the Plan
Administrator as dividend disbursing agent. Participation in the Plan is completely voluntary and may be terminated or resumed at any time
without penalty by notice if received and processed by the Plan Administrator prior to the dividend record date; otherwise such termination
or resumption will be effective with respect to any subsequently declared dividend or other distribution. Such notice will be effective with
respect to a particular dividend or other distribution (together, a "Dividend"). Some brokers may automatically elect to receive cash on
behalf of common shareholders and may re-invest that cash in additional common shares. Reinvested Dividends will increase the Trust's
Managed Assets on which the management fee is payable to the Advisor.
Whenever the Trust declares a Dividend payable in cash, non-participants in the Plan will receive cash and participants in the Plan will
receive the equivalent in common shares. The common shares will be acquired by the Plan Administrator for the participants' accounts,
depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i) through receipt of additional unissued but authorized common shares from
the Trust ("Newly Issued common shares") or (ii) by purchase of outstanding common shares on the open market ("Open-Market
Purchases") on the NASDAQ or elsewhere. If, on the payment date for any Dividend, the closing market price plus estimated brokerage
commissions per common share is equal to or greater than the NAV per common share, the Plan Administrator will invest the Dividend
amount in Newly Issued common shares on behalf of the participants. The number of Newly Issued common shares to be credited to each
participant's account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the Dividend by the Trust's NAV per common share on the
payment date. If, on the payment date for any Dividend, the NAV per common share is greater than the closing market value plus
estimated brokerage commissions (i.e., the Trust's common shares are trading at a discount), the Plan Administrator will invest the
Dividend amount in common shares acquired on behalf of the participants in Open-Market Purchases.
In the event of a market discount on the payment date for any Dividend, the Plan Administrator will have until the last business day before
the next date on which the common shares trade on an "ex-dividend" basis or 30 days after the payment date for such Dividend,
whichever is sooner (the "Last Purchase Date"), to invest the Dividend amount in common shares acquired in Open-Market Purchases. It is
contemplated that the Trust will pay monthly income Dividends. If, before the Plan Administrator has completed its Open-Market
Purchases, the market price per common share exceeds the NAV per common share, the average per common share purchase price paid
by the Plan Administrator may exceed the NAV of the common shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer common shares than if the
Dividend had been paid in Newly Issued common shares on the Dividend payment date. Because of the foregoing difficulty with respect to
Open-Market Purchases, the Plan provides that if the Plan Administrator is unable to invest the full Dividend amount in Open-Market
Purchases during the purchase period or if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period, the Plan

March 31, 2026 (Unaudited)
Administrator may cease making Open-Market Purchases and may invest the uninvested portion of the Dividend amount in Newly Issued
common shares at the NAV per common share at the close of business on the Last Purchase Date.
The Plan Administrator maintains all shareholders' accounts in the Plan and furnishes written confirmation of all transactions in the
accounts, including information needed by shareholders for tax records. Common shares in the account of each Plan participant will be
held by the Plan Administrator on behalf of the Plan participant, and each shareholder proxy will include those shares purchased or
received pursuant to the Plan. The Plan Administrator will forward all proxy solicitation materials to participants and vote proxies for shares
held under the Plan in accordance with the instructions of the participants.
Beneficial owners of common shares who hold their common shares in the name of a broker or nominee should contact the broker or
nominee to determine whether and how they may participate in the Plan. In the case of common shareholders such as banks, brokers or
nominees that hold shares for others who are the beneficial owners, the Plan Administrator will administer the Plan on the basis of the
number of common shares certified from time to time by the record shareholder's name and held for the account of beneficial owners who
participate in the Plan.
There will be no brokerage charges with respect to common shares issued directly by the Trust. However, each participant will pay a pro
rata share of brokerage commissions incurred in connection with Open-Market Purchases. The automatic reinvestment of Dividends will
not relieve participants of any federal, state or local income tax that may be payable (or required to be withheld) on such Dividends, even
though such participants have not received any cash with which to pay the resulting tax. Participants that request a sale of common shares
through the Plan Administrator are subject to brokerage commissions.
AVAILABILITY OF QUARTERLY PORTFOLIO SCHEDULE
The Trust files with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission schedules of its portfolio holdings on Form N-PORT EX for the first and
third quarters of each fiscal year. The Trust's Form N-PORT EX are available on the Commission's website at www.sec.gov. The Trust also
