How did the Fund perform during the reporting period?

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund navigated a volatile economic and market environment, providing meaningful downside protection early in the year, when uncertainty was highest, and participating on the upside as investor concerns around tariffs, economic growth, and the broader stock and bond market backdrop proved to be better than feared. Importantly, this was achieved while remaining disciplined in our approach to valuation and risk, particularly in an environment marked by elevated market concentration and pockets of overvaluation, both of which we view as ongoing risks for equity investors.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund's Class C Shares produced a total return of 11.05%. The Russell 1000® Value Index returned 15.91% for the same period. The Fund's emphasis on consistent, high-quality, through-the-cycle businesses weighed on relative performance in the second half of the year, as equity markets moved to new highs driven largely by enthusiasm surrounding Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its longer-term potential. Many of the benchmark's strongest performers were more growth-oriented and tied to secular themes such as AI, which created a challenging relative backdrop for our approach that focuses on business durability, valuation, and dividend consistency.

Economically, conditions remain somewhat unbalanced. The economy continues to follow a "K-shaped" pattern, inflation remains too high for many households, and affordability pressures persist. Outside of AI-related investment, capital spending has been relatively narrow, underscoring that the expansion is not yet as broad-based as we would ultimately like to see. Still, we continue to believe the U.S. remains the most attractive place to invest, supported by its innovation leadership, capital markets, and corporate profitability. We remain firmly committed to our longstanding investment philosophy, confident that a disciplined focus on quality, valuation, and long-term fundamentals continues to offer the most durable path to attractive, risk-adjusted returns for investors.

How did the Fund perform during the reporting period?

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund navigated a volatile economic and market environment. Uncertainty was highest early in the year, and as the year progressed, investor concerns around tariffs, economic growth, and the broader stock and bond market backdrop proved to be better than feared. Stocks continued their multi-year rise, and the economy grew at roughly trend rate. Bonds responded favorably to easing Federal Reserve policy and weaker employment data. Throughout the year, the Fund remained disciplined in its approach to income and risk mitigation, particularly in an environment marked by elevated market concentration and pockets of overvaluation, both of which we view as ongoing risks for equity investors.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund produced a return of 5.25%. The NASDAQ US Multi-Asset Diversified Income Total Return Index returned 4.53% for the same period. We were able to fulfill the Fund's objective of providing a high level of income with lower risk compared to the higher-yielding subsets of the capital markets. Overall, the Fund remained below benchmark risk relative to equity, energy, and credit risk. We continue to actively construct the Fund to manage the risks associated with a high level of current income, investing in Dividend-Paying Stocks, Real Estate Investment Trusts, Energy Infrastructure, Preferred Equity, and Corporate Bonds.

We believe that the income-producing ability of the Fund is intact and will continue to serve shareholders well going forward. We move into 2026 confident in the Fund's ability to continue to provide steady income regardless of prevailing market conditions. We will continue to control the portfolio's aggregate sensitivity to interest rates through the use of our proprietary, internally developed risk-management methodology.

How did the Fund perform during the reporting period?

Higher-quality small and mid-cap stocks were decisively out of favor in 2025, marking one of the more extreme periods of dispersion we have seen in this segment of the market. For the year, non-dividend payers in the Russell 2000® Index outperformed dividend payers by nearly 14%. This wide dispersion began after the April 8 market low and created a meaningful headwind for our dividend-oriented, quality-focused fund. Market leadership was concentrated in more speculative, lower-quality segments of the small-cap universe. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund produced a total return of 0.45%. The Russell 2000® Index returned 12.81% for the same period.

The Fund provided strong downside protection in the first quarter of the year, and the unfavorable dynamic marked the rest of the year as performance within the Russell 2000® Index became increasingly driven by largely unprofitable, non-dividend-paying companies. What began as a typical post-bear-market, low-quality rally was amplified by speculative momentum in thematic areas such as biotech, quantum computing, and power infrastructure.

Historically, extended stretches of low-quality outperformance have tended to give way to prolonged periods of leadership by high-quality businesses as speculative excesses unwind and fundamentals reassert themselves. We believe many of the stocks currently benefiting from speculative enthusiasm have been bid up to levels that are difficult to sustain. We remain focused on companies that generate growing earnings, cash flows, and dividends. As we move into 2026, we remain firmly committed to our longstanding investment philosophy, confident that a disciplined, research-driven approach continues to offer the most durable path to attractive, risk-adjusted small cap returns for investors.

The reporting period is less than a full annual reporting period. Expenses paid for a full annual reporting period would be higher.

How did the Fund perform during the reporting period?

• For the fiscal period ended 2025, MSCI India returns were driven by strong performances in the Energy, Financials, Materials and Telecom sectors. Financials outperformed as credit growth picked up and non-performing assets remain low. The Energy sector outperformed due to better margins in oil refining and marketing. Material stocks did well due to rising realizations and Telecom stocks did well due to increasing consolidation driving higher revenue per user. Information Technology stocks underperformed due to deferral of discretionary IT spends by clients.

• For the Fund, weak stock selection in Financials and being underweight in the Energy sector hurt Fund performance in the fiscal period ended 2025. Not owning Energy companies due to weak governance impacted negatively. Higher weight in Information Technology stocks which underperformed also hurt performance. Not owning stocks in the expensively valued Consumer Staples sector aided performance during the period.

• The Fund in the fiscal period ended 2025 initiated a new position in a pharmaceutical company, a large container logistics company and a cash logistics company as the medium-term growth outlook looks good and valuations appear attractive. We increased our holding in IT services companies as valuations have corrected improving upside. We fully exited a premium two-wheeler manufacturer and a non-bank finance company as valuations became expensive and the companies breached the Adviser's internal sell limit.

• For the fiscal period ended 2025, 14 of the 29 securities (48%) owned by the Fund had positive price returns (MSCI India, 87 of the 163 securities (53%), had positive returns). Cash & Cash Equivalent levels in the Fund are at 7.5% in December.

• Our long-only, bottom-up, value portfolio is trading at a 22% discount to the historical PER valuation of the MSCI India.

The reporting period is less than a full annual reporting period. Expenses paid for a full annual reporting period would be higher.

How did the Fund perform during the reporting period?

• For the fiscal period ended 2025, MSCI India returns were driven by strong performances in the Energy, Financials, Materials and Telecom sectors. Financials outperformed as credit growth picked up and non-performing assets remain low. The Energy sector outperformed due to better margins in oil refining and marketing. Material stocks did well due to rising realizations and Telecom stocks did well due to increasing consolidation driving higher revenue per user. Information Technology stocks underperformed due to deferral of discretionary IT spends by clients.

• For the Fund, weak stock selection in Financials and being underweight in the Energy sector hurt Fund performance in the fiscal period ended 2025. Not owning Energy companies due to weak governance impacted negatively. Higher weight in Information Technology stocks which underperformed also hurt performance. Not owning stocks in the expensively valued Consumer Staples sector aided performance during the period.

• The Fund in the fiscal period ended 2025 initiated a new position in a pharmaceutical company, a large container logistics company and a cash logistics company as the medium-term growth outlook looks good and valuations appear attractive. We increased our holding in IT services companies as valuations have corrected improving upside. We fully exited a premium two-wheeler manufacturer and a non-bank finance company as valuations became expensive and the companies breached the Adviser's internal sell limit.

• For the fiscal period ended 2025, 14 of the 29 securities (48%) owned by the Fund had positive price returns (MSCI India, 87 of the 163 securities (53%), had positive returns). Cash & Cash Equivalent levels in the Fund are at 7.5% in December.

• Our long-only, bottom-up, value portfolio is trading at a 22% discount to the historical PER valuation of the MSCI India.

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

Crawford Large Cap Dividend Fund (the “Large Cap Dividend Fund”), Crawford Small Cap Dividend Fund (the “Small Cap Dividend Fund”) and Crawford Multi-Asset Income Fund (the “Multi-Asset Income Fund”) (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are each registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a diversified series of Unified Series Trust (the “Trust”). The Large Cap Dividend Fund, Small Cap Dividend Fund, and Multi-Asset Income Fund were organized on December 7, 2003, June 21, 2012, and August 7, 2017, respectively. The Trust is an open-end investment company established under the laws of Ohio by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated October 14, 2002, as amended (the “Trust Agreement”). The Trust Agreement permits the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest of separate series without par value. Each Fund is one of a series of funds currently authorized by the Board. The investment adviser to the Funds is Crawford Investment Counsel, Inc. (the “Adviser”). The investment objective of the Large Cap Dividend Fund is total return. The investment objective of the Small Cap Dividend Fund is to provide attractive long-term total return with below market risk as measured by standard deviation in comparison with the Russell 2000® Index. The investment objective of the Multi-Asset Income Fund is to provide current income.

The Large Cap Dividend Fund currently offers two classes of shares: Class I and Class C. Large Cap Dividend Fund Class I shares were first offered to the public on January 5, 2004, and Large Cap Dividend Fund Class C shares were first offered to the public on January 27, 2004. Small Cap Dividend Fund Class I shares were first offered to the public on September 26, 2012. Shares of the Multi-Asset Income Fund were first offered to the public on September 12, 2017. Each class votes separately on matters affecting only that class, or on matters expressly required to be voted on separately by state or federal law. Shares of each class of a series have the same voting and other rights and preferences as the other classes and series of the Trust for matters that affect the Trust as a whole. Each share represents an equal proportionate interest in the assets and liabilities belonging to the applicable Fund and is entitled to such dividends and distributions out of income belonging to the Funds as are declared by the Board.

The Funds have adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. Adoption of the standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect each Fund’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. Each Fund’s CODM is the President and Principal Executive Officer of the Trust. Each Fund operates as a single operating segment. Each Fund’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 each Fund, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Funds are investment companies and follow accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, “Financial Services-Investment Companies”, including Accounting Standards Update 2013-08. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

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 and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign Currency Translation - The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the current rate of exchange each business day to determine the value of investments, and other assets and liabilities. Purchases and sales of foreign securities, and income and expenses, are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective date of these transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. These fluctuations are included with the realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. Net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency translations on the Statements of Operations represents currency gains (losses) realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amount of investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. The net change in unrealized currency gains (losses) on foreign currency translations for the period is reflected in the Statements of Operations.

Federal Income Taxes - The Funds make no provision for federal income or excise tax. Each Fund has qualified and intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment

19

Crawford Funds
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
December 31, 2025

company (“RIC”) under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, by complying with the requirements applicable to RICs and by distributing substantially all of its taxable income. Each Fund also intends to distribute sufficient net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, so that it will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains. If the required amount of net investment income or gains is not distributed, the Funds could incur a tax expense.

As of and during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Funds did not have any liabilities for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations when incurred. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. Management of the Funds has reviewed tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by all major tax jurisdictions, including federal (i.e., the previous three tax year ends and the interim tax period since then, as applicable) and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements and does not expect this to change over the next twelve months.

Expenses - 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 (as determined by the Board). Expenses specifically attributable to any class are borne by that class. Income, realized gains and losses, unrealized appreciation and depreciation, and fund-wide expenses not allocated to a particular class shall be allocated to each class based on the net assets of that class in relation to the net assets of the entire fund.

Security Transactions and Related Income - The Funds follow industry practice and record security transactions on the trade date for financial reporting purposes. The specific identification method is used for determining gains or losses for financial statement and income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Distributions received from investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investment or as a realized gain, respectively. The calendar year-end amounts of ordinary income, capital gains, and return of capital included in distributions received from the Funds’ investments in REITs are reported to the Funds after the end of the calendar year; accordingly, the Funds estimate these amounts for accounting purposes until the characterization of REIT distributions is reported. Estimates are based on the most recent REIT distributions information available. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and related reclaims have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

Crawford Funds

December 31, 2025

Dividends and Distributions - The Large Cap Dividend Fund and the Small Cap Dividend Fund each typically distribute substantially all of their net investment income quarterly and net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. The Multi-Asset Income Fund typically distributes net investment income monthly and any realized net capital gains, if any, 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 year from net investment income or net realized capital gains may differ from their ultimate treatment for federal income tax purposes. Where such differences are permanent in nature; they are reclassified in the components of 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 net asset values (“NAV”) per share of the Funds.

For the fiscal year ended of December 31, 2025, the Funds made the following reclassifications to increase (decrease) the components of net assets:

Accumulated
Paid-In Earnings
Capital (Deficit)
Large Cap Dividend Fund $ - $ -
Small Cap Dividend Fund (116,291 ) 116,291
Multi-Asset Income Fund (35,313 ) 35,313

Contingent Deferred Sales Charges - With respect to the Class C shares of the Large Cap Dividend Fund there is no initial sales charge on purchases. However, a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00%, based on the lower of the shares’ cost or current NAV, will be imposed on such purchases if the shares are redeemed within 12 months of purchase. Any shares acquired by reinvestment of distributions will be redeemed without a CDSC. In determining whether a CDSC is payable, the Large Cap Dividend Fund will first redeem Class C shares not subject to any charge.

NOTE 3. SECURITIES VALUATION AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Each Fund values its portfolio securities at fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each business day the NYSE is open for business. Fair value is defined as the price that a Fund would receive upon selling an investment or transferring a liability in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. GAAP establishes a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes.

21

Crawford Funds
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
December 31, 2025

Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk (the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value including a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique). Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained and available from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments and/or registered investment companies where the value per share is determined and published and is the basis for current transactions for identical assets or liabilities at the valuation date
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for an identical security in an inactive market, 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 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 which is reported is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Equity securities that are traded on any stock exchange are generally valued at the last quoted sale price on the security’s primary exchange. Lacking a last sale price, an exchange-traded security is generally valued at its last bid price. Securities traded in the Nasdaq over-the-counter market are generally valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price. When using market quotations and when the market is considered active, the security is classified as a Level 1 security. In the event that market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable due to market or other events, securities are valued in good faith by the Adviser, as Valuation Designee, under the oversight of the Board’s Pricing & Liquidity Committee. The Valuation Designee has adopted written policies and procedures for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily

22

Crawford Funds
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
December 31, 2025

available in conformity with guidelines adopted by the Board. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Designee pursuant to its policies and procedures. Any fair value provided by the Valuation Designee is subject to the ultimate review of the pricing methodology by the Pricing & Liquidity Committee of the Board on a quarterly basis. Under these policies, the securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used.

Investments in mutual funds, including money market mutual funds, are generally priced at the ending NAV provided by the service agent of the mutual funds. These securities are categorized as Level 1 securities.

Debt securities are valued by using the mean between the closing bid and ask prices provided by a pricing service. If the closing bid and ask prices are not readily available, the pricing service may provide a price determined by a matrix pricing method. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique used to value fixed income securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices. Matrix pricing takes into consideration recent transactions, yield, liquidity, risk, credit quality, coupon, maturity, type of issue and any other factors or market data the pricing service deems relevant for the actual security being priced and for other securities with similar characteristics. These securities will generally be categorized as Level 2 securities. If the Valuation Designee decides that a price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the fair value of the securities or when prices are not readily available from a pricing service, securities are valued at fair value as determined by the Valuation Designee, in conformity with guidelines adopted by and subject to review of the Board through its Pricing & Liquidity Committee. These securities will generally be categorized as Level 3 securities.

In accordance with the Trust’s valuation policies and fair value determinations pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Valuation Designee is required to consider all appropriate factors relevant to the value of securities for which it has determined other pricing sources are not available or reliable as described above. No single method exists for determining fair value because fair value depends upon the circumstances of each individual case. As a general principle, the current fair value of a security being valued by the Valuation Designee would be the amount that a Fund might reasonably expect to receive upon the current sale. Methods that are in accordance with this principle may, for example, be based on (i) a multiple of earnings; (ii) a discount from market prices of a similar freely traded security (including a derivative security or a basket of securities traded on other markets, exchanges or among dealers); or (iii) yield to maturity with respect to debt issues, or a combination of these and other methods. Fair-value pricing is permitted if, in the Valuation

December 31, 2025

Designee’s opinion, the validity of market quotations appears to be questionable based on factors such as evidence of a thin market in the security based on a small number of quotations, a significant event occurs after the close of a market but before a Fund’s NAV calculation that may affect a security’s value, or the Valuation Designee is aware of any other data that calls into question the reliability of market quotations. The Valuation Designee may obtain assistance from others in fulfilling its duties. For example, it may seek assistance from pricing services, fund administrators, sub-advisers, accountants, or counsel; it may also consult the Trust’s Fair Value Committee. The Valuation Designee, however, remains responsible for the final fair value determination and may not designate or assign that responsibility to any third party.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of December 31, 2025:

NOTE 4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS

The Adviser, under the terms of the management agreement with the Trust with respect to each Fund (each an “Agreement”), manages the Funds’ investments. As compensation for its management services, each Fund pays the Adviser a management fee based on its average daily net assets as follows:

Large Cap Dividend Small Cap Dividend Multi-Asset Income
Fund Fund Fund
Management fee rate 0.50% 0.99% 1.00%
Management fees earned $296,685 $3,158,693 $1,532,144
Fees waived $- $(459,631) $(320,661)

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that total annual operating expenses (excluding portfolio transaction and other investment-related costs (including brokerage fees and commissions); taxes; borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expenses on securities sold short); acquired fund fees and expenses; fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including for example option and swap fees and expenses); any amounts payable pursuant to a distribution or service plan adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act; any administrative and/or shareholder servicing fees payable pursuant to a plan adopted by the Board; expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization; extraordinary expenses (such as litigation expenses, indemnification of Trust officers and Trustees and contractual indemnification of Fund service providers); and other expenses that the Trustees agree have not been incurred in the ordinary course of the Funds’ business) do not exceed 0.98% of each class of shares of the Large Cap Dividend Fund’s average daily net assets, 0.99% of the Small Cap Dividend Fund’s average daily net assets and 0.98% of the Multi-Asset Income Fund’s average daily net assets. The expense cap for the Multi-Asset Income Fund was 0.99% from April 30, 2023 to April 30, 2025. Prior to April 30, 2023, the expense cap for the Multi-Asset Income Fund was 1.00%. The contractual arrangements for the Funds are in place through April 30, 2025 and may not be terminated prior to this date except by the Board upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Adviser.

Each fee waiver/expense payment by the Adviser is subject to recoupment by the Adviser from the applicable Fund in the three years following the date the particular waiver/ expense payment occurred, but only if such recoupment can be achieved without exceeding the annual expense limitation in effect at the time of the waiver/expense payment and

25

Crawford Funds

any expense limitation in effect at the time of the recoupment. The amounts subject to repayment by the Funds, pursuant to the aforementioned conditions are as follows:

Large Cap Small Cap
Dividend Dividend Multi-Asset
Recoverable Through Fund Fund Income Fund
December 31, 2026 $ - $ 441,130 $ 275,878

Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“Ultimus”) provides administration, fund accounting and transfer agent services to the Funds. The Funds pay Ultimus fees in accordance with the agreements for such services.

Northern Lights Compliance Services, LLC (“NLCS”), an affiliate of Ultimus, provides a Chief Compliance Officer to the Trust, as well as related compliance services, pursuant to a consulting agreement between NLCS and the Trust. Under the terms of such agreement, NLCS receives fees from the Funds, which are approved annually by the Board.

Under the terms of a Distribution Agreement with the Trust, Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as principal underwriter to the Funds. The Distributor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultimus. The Distributor is compensated by the Adviser (not the Funds) for acting as principal underwriter.

Certain officers of the Trust are also employees of Ultimus and such persons are not paid by the Funds for serving in such capacities.

The Board supervises the business activities of the Trust. Each Trustee serves as a trustee until termination of the Trust unless the Trustee dies, resigns, retires, or is removed. The Chair of the Board and more than 75% of the Trustees are “Independent Trustees”, which means that they are not “interested persons” as defined in the 1940 Act. The Independent Trustees review and establish compensation at least annually. Each Trustee of the Trust receives annual compensation, which is an established amount paid quarterly per fund in the Trust at the time of the regular quarterly Board meetings. The Chair of the Board receives the highest compensation, commensurate with his additional duties and each Chair of a committee receives additional compensation as well. Trustees also receive additional fees for attending any special meetings. In addition, the Trust reimburses Trustees for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in conjunction with attendance at meetings. Beginning in May 2024, the Interested Trustee began receiving the same compensation as the Independent Trustees.

The Trust, with respect to the Large Cap Dividend Fund’s Class C shares has adopted a Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Plan, the Large Cap Dividend Fund pays a fee to the Distributor, the Adviser or other financial institutions of 1.00% of the Class C’s average daily net assets (0.75% to help defray the cost of distributing Class C shares and 0.25% for servicing the Class C shareholders) attributable to the Large Cap Dividend Fund in connection with the promotion and distribution of the Large Cap Dividend Fund’s Class C shares or the provision of personal services to Class C shareholders. These services include, but are not necessarily limited to, advertising, compensation to underwriters, dealers and selling personnel, the printing and mailing of prospectuses to other than current Large Cap Dividend Fund shareholders, the printing and mailing of sales literature and servicing shareholder accounts (“12b-1 Expenses”). The Plan is a compensation plan, which means that compensation is provided regardless of 12b-1 Expenses actually incurred. Pursuant to the Plan, the Board reviews, at least quarterly, a written report of the distribution expenses incurred on behalf of the Large Cap Dividend Fund’s Class C shares under the Plan. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Large Cap Dividend Fund Class C shares incurred 12b-1 Expenses of $23,691. The Large Cap Dividend Fund owed $8,660 for Class C 12b-1 Expenses as of December 31, 2025.

NOTE 5. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, purchases and sales of investment securities, other than short-term investments, were as follows:

Purchases Sales
Large Cap Dividend Fund $ 3,592,145 $ 7,624,935
Small Cap Dividend Fund 94,981,857 87,544,070
Multi-Asset Income Fund 46,015,113 27,193,531

There were no purchases or sales of long-term U.S. government obligations during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

December 31, 2025

The tax character of distributions paid for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:

Large Cap Dividend Fund Small Cap Dividend Fund Multi-Asset Income Fund
2025 2024 2025 2024 2025 2024
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income(a) $ 704,605 $ 805,807 $ 3,714,204 $ 3,388,624 $ 7,389,578 $ 5,343,772
Long-term capital gains 2,684,461 2,932,628 7,563,909 9,585,759 4,394,478 -
Total distributions paid $ 3,389,066 $ 3,738,435 $ 11,278,113 $ 12,974,383 $ 11,784,056 $ 5,343,772
(a) Short-term capital gain distributions are treated as ordinary income for tax purposes.

At December 31, 2025, the components of accumulated earnings (deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

Large Cap Small Cap Multi-Asset
Dividend Fund Dividend Fund Income Fund
Undistributed ordinary income $ 12,669 $ - $ -
Undistributed long-term capital gains - - -
Accumulated capital and other losses (84,472 ) (1,891,920 ) (324,698 )
Unrealized appreciation on investments 32,221,253 67,195,306 6,589,837
Total accumulated earnings $ 32,149,450 $ 65,303,386 $ 6,265,139

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is primarily attributable to tax deferral of losses on wash sales, differences related to partnership investments and the return of capital adjustments from underlying investments.

Capital losses and specified gains realized after October 31, and net investment losses realized after December 31 of a Fund’s fiscal year may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax purposes. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Large Cap Dividend Fund, Small Cap Dividend Fund and Multi-Asset Income Fund deferred post-October capital losses in the amounts of $84,472, $1,891,920 and $324,698, respectively.

NOTE 7. 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 a 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 December 31, 2025, the Large Cap Dividend Fund had 26.41% of the value of its net assets invested in

28

Crawford Funds
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
December 31, 2025

securities within the Financials sector. As of December 31, 2025, the Small Cap Dividend Fund had 36.01% of the value of its net assets invested in securities within the Industrials sector. As of December 31, 2025, the Multi-Asset Income Fund had 33.13% of the value of its net assets invested in securities within the Real Estate sector.

NOTE 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Trust indemnifies its officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from their performance of their duties to the Trust or the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties 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.

NOTE 9. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09 (“ASU 2023-09”), Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which amends quantitative and qualitative income tax disclosure requirements in order to increase disclosure consistency, bifurcate income tax information by jurisdiction and remove information that is no longer beneficial. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Management is evaluating the impacts of these changes on the Funds’ financial statements.

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management of the Funds has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date at which these financial statements were issued. Based upon this evaluation, management has determined there were no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosure.

To the Shareholders of Crawford Funds and
Board of Trustees of Unified Series Trust

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Crawford Funds, comprising Crawford Large Cap Dividend Fund, Crawford Small Cap Dividend Fund, and Crawford Multi-Asset Income Fund, each a series of Unified Series Trust (the “Funds”), as of December 31, 2025, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of December 31, 2025, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2025, by correspondence with the custodian and broker. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Funds’ auditor since 2017.

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement

The Crawford Large Cap Dividend Fund (“Large Cap Fund”), the Crawford Small Cap Dividend Fund (“Small Cap Fund”), and the Crawford Multi-Asset Income Fund (“Multi-Asset Fund”) (together, the “Funds” and each, a “Fund”) are series of Unified Series Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”) oversees the management of the Funds and, as required by law, has considered the renewal of the management agreements with their investment adviser, Crawford Investment Counsel, Inc. (“Crawford”). In connection with such renewals, the Board requested and evaluated all information that the Trustees deemed reasonably necessary under the circumstances.

At the Trustees’ quarterly meeting held in August 2025, the Trustees, including the Trustees who are not “interested persons” (as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the Trust or Crawford (the “Independent Trustees”), approved the renewal of the management agreements between the Trust and Crawford for an additional year. The Trustees’ renewal of each Fund’s management agreement was based on a consideration of all the information provided to the Trustees, and not as the result of any single factor. Some of the factors that figured particularly in the Trustees’ deliberations are described below, although individual Trustees may have evaluated this information differently, ascribing different weights to various factors.

The Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services. The Board reviewed and considered information regarding the nature, extent, and quality of services that Crawford provides to the Funds, including but not limited to, providing a continuous investment program for the Funds, adhering to the Funds’ investment restrictions, complying with the Trust’s policies and procedures, and voting proxies on behalf of the Funds. The Board reviewed the background information of key investment personnel responsible for servicing the Funds, considering their education and financial industry experience. The Board acknowledged Crawford’s succession planning, cybersecurity and testing, disaster recovery, and compliance program. The Board concluded that Crawford provided satisfactory service to each Fund and its respective shareholders.

Fund Performance. The Trustees discussed each Fund’s performance for various periods ended June 30, 2025, including the investment strategies and Crawford’s value-oriented approach.

The Board observed that the Large Cap Fund had outperformed its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, its peer group, and Morningstar category over the one-year period. The Board noted that the Large Cap Fund underperformed its benchmark, peer group, and Morningstar category over the three-

32

Additional Information (Unaudited) (continued)

year and five-year periods. The Board further discussed that the Large Cap Fund underperformed its Morningstar category over the ten-year period and outperformed its benchmark and peer group over the same period. The Board acknowledged that Crawford attributed underperformance to the Large Cap Fund’s focus on high quality, dividend paying companies, which have underperformed a narrow group of growth oriented stocks that drove overall market performance during the relevant periods.

The Trustees noted that the Small Cap Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index, Morningstar category, and peer group over the three-year and five-year periods. The Board noted that the Small Cap Fund outperformed its peer group over the one-year and ten-year periods and outperformed its benchmark over the ten-year period. The Board discussed that since inception, the Small Cap Fund outperformed its benchmark, performed in line with its peer group, and underperformed its Morningstar category. The Board noted Crawford’s explanation that relative underperformance was attributable to the Small Cap Fund’s holdings in the consumer discretionary, health care, and real estate sectors, as well as the Small Cap Fund’s focus on companies with durable business models, solid financial characteristics, and shareholder-oriented capital policies, which generally underperformed various growth oriented stocks during the relevant periods. The Board recognized Crawford’s conviction in the strategy to provide attractive risk adjusted returns over the long term.

The Board observed that the Multi-Asset Fund had outperformed its benchmark, the NASDAQ U.S. Multi-Asset Diversified Income Index, for the one-year and since inception periods but underperformed its benchmark for the three-year and five-year periods. The Board further discussed that the Multi-Asset Fund had outperformed its Morningstar category and peer group for the one-year and five-year periods but underperformed each over the three-year and since inception periods. The Board acknowledged Crawford’s position that the funds in the peer group and Morningstar category provided lower levels of income and allocations to alternative sources of income compared to the Multi-Asset Fund and, as a result, its benchmark was a more apt comparison for relative performance. The Board discussed Crawford’s rationale for underperformance relative to the benchmark over various periods, noting Crawford’s position that the Multi-Asset Fund consistently provided a high level of current income while mitigating downside risk.

The Board analyzed Crawford’s remarks about how each Fund’s portfolio differs from the typical portfolios in its respective peer group and Morningstar category and the corresponding impact on relative performance. The Board also acknowledged Crawford’s view that account specific restrictions and mandates explained the variation in performance of each Fund with the performance of separately managed accounts with a substantially similar strategy. It was the consensus of the Board that Crawford was managing each Fund consistent with its mandate.

Fee Rate and Profitability. With respect to each Fund, the Board reviewed a fee and expense comparison for the Fund’s peer group and Morningstar category. The Trustees observed that the management fee for the Large Cap Fund was lower than the averages and medians of its peer group and the Morningstar category but that its net expense ratio was higher than the averages and medians of its peer group and Morningstar category. The Board considered the justification provided by Crawford for the relatively higher net expense ratio. The Board observed that the Large Cap Fund’s management fee was comparable to the fee charged by Crawford for managed accounts with similar strategies.

33

Additional Information (Unaudited) (continued)

The Board noted that the management fee and net expense ratio for the Small Cap Fund were higher than the averages and medians of its peer group and Morningstar category. The Board discussed Crawford’s commentary regarding the relatively higher fees and expenses. The Board observed that the Small Cap Fund’s management fee was comparable to the fee charged by Crawford for managed accounts with similar strategies.

The Board observed that the management fee and net expense ratio for the Multi-Asset Fund were higher than the averages and medians of its peer group and the Morningstar category. The Board recalled Crawford’s explanation that its fees and expenses were attributable to the expertise and additional resources involved in effectively implementing the Multi-Asset Fund’s strategy. The Board noted that the Multi-Asset Fund’s management fee and expenses were comparable to the fees charged by Crawford for its managed accounts with similar strategies.

The Board also considered a profitability analysis prepared by Crawford with respect to its management of each Fund, which indicated that Crawford was not earning a profit in connection with managing any of the Funds. The Board also reviewed Crawford’s profitability analyses from the prior year and examined whether there were any material differences in expenses year over year. They also examined Crawford’s allocation of expenses in the profitability analyses and considered its financial status.

The Board also recalled their review of the Large Cap Fund’s 12b-1 Plan at this meeting and considered other potential benefits that Crawford may receive in connection with its management of the Large Cap Fund. The Board considered the benefits Crawford could derive from its soft dollar arrangements. After considering the above information, the Trustees concluded that the current management fee for each Fund represented reasonable compensation in light of the nature and quality of Crawford’s services to each Fund.

Economies of Scale. In determining the reasonableness of the management fees, the Trustees also considered the extent to which Crawford may realize economies of scale as each Fund grows larger. The Board determined that, in light of the size of each Fund and the fact that Crawford is not yet profitable in managing any of the Funds, it was premature to reduce the management fees or introduce breakpoints. The Board agreed to monitor and revisit this issue at a later time.

Q India Equity Fund
Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2025

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

The Q India Equity Fund (the "Fund") was registered as a non-diversified series of Unified Series Trust (the "Trust") on August 20, 2024. The Trust is an open-end investment company established under the laws of Ohio by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated October 14, 2002, as amended (the "Trust Agreement"). The Trust Agreement permits the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the "Board") to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest of separate series. The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing in the listed equities of Indian companies that are in a position to benefit from the anticipated growth and development of the Indian economy. The Fund is one of a series of funds currently authorized by the Board. The Fund's investment adviser is Quantum Advisors Private Limited (the "Adviser").

The Fund currently offers three classes of shares, Class I, Class II and Investor Class. Class I, Class II and Investor Class shares were first offered to the public on January 6, 2025. Each share represents an equal proportionate interest in the assets and liabilities belonging to the applicable class of the Fund and is entitled to such dividends and distributions out of income belonging to the applicable class of the Fund as are declared by the Board. On matters that affect the Fund as a whole, each class has the same voting and other rights and preferences as any other class. On matters that affect only one class, only shareholders of that class may vote. Each class votes separately on matters affecting only that class, or as expressly required to be voted on separately by state or federal law. Shares of each class of a series have the same voting and other rights and preferences as the other classes and series of the Trust for matters that affect the Trust as a whole. The Fund may offer additional classes of shares in the future.

Non-Diversification Risk - As a non-diversified fund, the Fund's portfolio may focus on a limited number of companies. Because the Fund may hold the securities of fewer issuers than a diversified fund, the poor performance of an individual security in the Fund's portfolio may have a greater negative impact on the Fund's performance than if the Fund's asset were diversified among a larger number of portfolio securities.

The Fund has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. Adoption of the standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect the Fund'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 and Principal Executive Officer of the Fund. The Fund operates as a single operating segment. The Fund'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 Fund, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Fund has adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Management of the Fund has evaluated the impact on financial reporting and determined that it did not have a material impact for the fiscal period ended December 31, 2025.

The Fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance under FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946, "Financial Services-Investment Companies", including Accounting Standards Update 2013-08. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP").

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 and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign Currency Translation - The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the current rate of exchange each business day to determine the value of investments, and other assets and liabilities. Purchases and sales of foreign securities, and income and expenses, are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective date of these transactions. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. These fluctuations are included with the realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. Net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency translations on the Statement of Operations represents currency gains (losses) realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amount of investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. The change in unrealized currency gains (losses) on foreign currency translations for the period is reflected in the Statement of Operations.

Federal Income Taxes - The Fund makes no provision for federal income or excise tax. The Fund has qualified and intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, by complying with the requirements applicable to RICs and by distributing substantially all of its taxable income. The Fund also intends to distribute sufficient net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, so that it will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains. If the required amount of net investment income or gains is not distributed, the Fund could incur a tax expense.

As of and during the period ended December 31, 2025, the Fund did not have any liabilities for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations when incurred. During the period ended December 31, 2025, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. Management of the Fund has reviewed tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by all major tax jurisdictions, including federal (i.e., the previous three tax year ends and the interim tax period since then, as applicable) and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements and does not expect this to change over the next twelve months.

Expenses - Expenses incurred by the Trust that do not relate to a specific fund of the Trust are allocated to the individual funds of the Trust based on each fund's relative net assets or another appropriate basis (as determined by the Board). Expenses specifically attributable to any class are borne by that class. Income, realized gains and losses, unrealized appreciation and depreciation, and fund-wide expenses not allocated to a particular class shall be allocated to each class based on the net assets of that class in relation to the net assets of the entire fund.

Security Transactions and Related Income - The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date for financial reporting purposes. The specific identification method is used for determining gains or losses for financial statement and income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Non-cash income, if any, is recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Withholding taxes on foreign capital gains, foreign dividends and related reclaims have been provided for in accordance with the Fund's understanding of the applicable country's tax rules and rates.

Dividends and Distributions - The 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. 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 among the components of 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 net asset value ("NAV") per share of the Fund.

NOTE 3. SECURITIES VALUATION AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Fund values its portfolio securities at fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each business day the NYSE is open for business. Fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon selling

an investment or transferring a liability in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. GAAP establishes a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes.

Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk (the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value including a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique). Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained and available from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments and/or registered investment companies where the value per share is determined and published and is the basis for current transactions for identical assets or liabilities at the valuation date
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for an identical security in an inactive market, quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining fair value of investments based on the best information available)

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 which is reported is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Equity securities that are traded on any stock exchange are generally valued at the last quoted sale price on the security's primary exchange. Lacking a last sale price, an exchange-traded security is generally valued at its last bid price. Securities traded in the Nasdaq over-the-counter market are generally valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price. With respect to foreign equity securities that are principally traded on a market outside the United States, the Board's Pricing & Liquidity Committee has approved the utilization of an International Fair Value Pricing Service to evaluate the effect of market fluctuations on these securities after the close of trading in that foreign market. Where a movement of identified indices compared to each other is sufficiently large to constitute a trigger point established by the Board's Pricing & Liquidity Committee, fair market valuation factors provided by the International Fair Value Pricing Service will be applied to the closing market prices of these foreign equity securities, and those adjusted prices will be used in the Fund's NAV calculation

for that day. When using market quotations and when the market is considered active, the security is classified as a Level 1 security. In the event that market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable due to market or other events, securities are valued in good faith by the Adviser, as Valuation Designee, under the oversight of the Board's Pricing & Liquidity Committee. The Valuation Designee has adopted written policies and procedures for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available in conformity with guidelines adopted by the Board. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Designee pursuant to its policies and procedures. Any fair value provided by the Valuation Designee is subject to the ultimate review of the pricing methodology by the Pricing & Liquidity Committee of the Board on a quarterly basis. Under these policies, the securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used.

Investments in mutual funds, including money market mutual funds, are generally priced at the ending NAV provided by the service agent of the mutual funds. These securities are categorized as Level 1 securities.

In accordance with the Trust's valuation policies and fair value determinations pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), the Valuation Designee is required to consider all appropriate factors relevant to the value of securities for which it has determined other pricing sources are not available or reliable as described above. No single method exists for determining fair value because fair value depends upon the circumstances of each individual case. As a general principle, the current fair value of a security being valued by the Valuation Designee would be the amount that the Fund might reasonably expect to receive upon the current sale. Methods that are in accordance with this principle may, for example, be based on (i) a multiple of earnings; (ii) a discount from market prices of a similar freely traded security (including a derivative security or a basket of securities traded on other markets, exchanges or among dealers); or (iii) yield to maturity with respect to debt issues, or a combination of these and other methods. Fair-value pricing is permitted if, in the Valuation Designee's opinion, the validity of market quotations appears to be questionable based on factors such as evidence of a thin market in the security based on a small number of quotations, a significant event occurs after the close of a market but before the Fund's NAV calculation that may affect a security's value, or the Valuation Designee is aware of any other data that calls into question the reliability of market quotations. The Valuation Designee may obtain assistance from others in fulfilling its duties. For example, it may seek assistance from pricing services, fund administrators, sub-advisers, accountants, or counsel; it may also consult the Trust's Fair Value Committee. The Valuation Designee, however, remains responsible for the final fair value determination and may not designate or assign that responsibility to any third party.

The Fund did not hold any investments during or at the end of the reporting period for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value; therefore, no reconciliation of Level 3 securities is included for this reporting period.

NOTE 4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS

The Adviser, under the terms of the management agreement, manages the Fund's investments. As compensation for its management services, the Fund is obligated to pay the Adviser a management fee computed and accrued daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.65% of the Fund's average daily net assets. For the period ended December 31, 2025, before the waiver described below, the Adviser earned a fee of $1,759 from the Fund. The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses through April 30, 2027 so that total annual operating expenses (excluding portfolio transaction and other investment-related costs (including brokerage fees and commissions); taxes; borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expenses on securities sold short); acquired fund fees and expenses; fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including for example option and swap fees and expenses); any amounts payable pursuant to a distribution or service plan adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act; any administrative and/or shareholder servicing fees payable pursuant to a plan adopted by the Board; expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization; extraordinary expenses (such as litigation expenses, indemnification of Trust officers and Trustees and contractual indemnification of Fund service providers); and other expenses that the Trustees agree have not been incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund's business) do not exceed 0.98%, 0.75% and 1.23% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class I, Class II, and Investor Class shares, respectively. At December 31, 2025, the Adviser owed the Fund $36,368 for waived and reimbursed expenses. For the period ended December 31, 2025, the Adviser waived management fees of $286,047.

Each fee waiver/expense payment by the Adviser is subject to recoupment by the Adviser from the Fund in the three years following the date in which that particular waiver/expense payment occurred, but only if such recoupment can be achieved without exceeding the annual expense limitation in effect at the time of the waiver/expense payment and any expense limitation in effect at the time of

the recoupment. As of December 31, 2025, the Adviser may seek repayment of management fees waived and expenses reimbursed pursuant to the aforementioned conditions from the Fund no later than the dates stated below:

Recoverable through
December 31, 2028 $ 286,047

Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC ("Ultimus") provides administration, fund accounting and transfer agent services to the Fund. The Fund pays Ultimus fees in accordance with the agreements for such services.

Northern Lights Compliance Services, LLC ("NLCS"), an affiliate of Ultimus, provides a Chief Compliance Officer to the Trust, as well as related compliance services, pursuant to a consulting agreement between NLCS and the Trust. Under the terms of such agreement, NLCS receives fees from the Fund, which are approved annually by the Board.

Under the terms of a Distribution Agreement with the Trust, Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the "Distributor") serves as principal underwriter to the Fund. The Distributor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultimus. The Distributor is compensated by the Adviser (not the Fund) for acting as principal underwriter.

Certain officers of the Trust are also employees of Ultimus and such persons are not paid by the Fund for serving in such capacities.

The Board supervises the business activities of the Trust. Each Trustee serves as a trustee until termination of the Trust unless the Trustee dies, resigns, retires, or is removed. The Chair of the Board and more than 75% of the Trustees are "Independent Trustees," which means that they are not "interested persons" as defined in the 1940 Act. The Independent Trustees review and establish compensation at least annually. Each Trustee of the Trust receives annual compensation, which is an established amount paid quarterly per fund in the Trust at the time of the regular quarterly Board meetings. The Chair of the Board receives the highest compensation, commensurate with his additional duties and each Chair of a committee receives additional compensation as well. Trustees also receive additional fees for attending any special meetings. In addition, the Trust reimburses Trustees for out-of- pocket expenses incurred in conjunction with attendance at meetings.

The Trust, with respect to the Investor Class shares of the Fund, has adopted a distribution plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Plan, the Fund can pay the Distributor, the Adviser and/or other financial institutions or any other person (the "Recipient") a fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund in connection with the promotion and distribution of the Fund's shares or the provision of personal services to shareholders, including, but not necessarily limited to, advertising, compensation to underwriters, dealers and selling personnel, the printing and mailing of prospectuses to other than current Fund shareholders, the printing and mailing of sales literature and servicing shareholder accounts ("12b-1 Expenses"). The Fund or Adviser may pay all or a portion of these fees to any Recipient who renders assistance in

distributing or promoting the sale of shares, or who provides certain shareholder services, pursuant to a written agreement. The Plan is a compensation plan, which means that compensation is provided regardless of 12b-1 expenses actually incurred. For the period ended December 31, 2025, the Investor Class shares incurred 12b-1 expenses of $74. The Fund owed $75 for Investor Class shares 12b-1 expenses as of December 31, 2025.

NOTE 5. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES

For the period ended December 31, 2025, purchases and sales of investment securities, other than short-term investments, were $1,004,689 and $2,145, respectively.

There were no purchases or sales of long-term U.S. government obligations during the period ended December 31, 2025.

NOTE 6. BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of a fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of December 31, 2025, Kevin and Jill Heller owned 100% of the Class II outstanding shares and 77.47% of the Investor Class outstanding shares. As of December 31, 2025, Sandeep Mathrani owned 97.44% of Class I outstanding shares. As a result, Kevin and Jill Heller and Sandeep Mathrani may be deemed to control the Fund.

NOTE 7. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

At December 31, 2025, the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and tax cost of investments for tax purposes were as follows:

Gross unrealized appreciation $ 15,664
Gross unrealized depreciation (43,049 )
Net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on investments $ (27,385 )
Tax cost of investments $ 1,083,800

At December 31, 2025, the components of accumulated earnings (deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

Unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) $ (27,385 )
Total accumulated earnings $ (27,385 )

As of December 31, 2025, the difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is primarily attributable to foreign capital gain tax reclasses.

16

Q India Equity Fund
Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)
December 31, 2025

Capital losses and specified gains realized after October 31, and net investment losses realized after December 31 of the Fund's fiscal year may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax purposes. For the period ended December 31, 2025, the Fund did not defer any post-October capital losses or late year ordinary losses.

NOTE 8. SECTOR RISK

If the 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 December 31, 2025, the Fund had 43.43% of the value of its net assets invested in stocks within the Financials sector.

NOTE 9. CONCENTRATION RISK

A fund's portfolio with a geographical focus may be more volatile than a broad-based fund portfolio, such as a global equity fund portfolio, as they are more susceptible to fluctuations in value resulting from adverse conditions in the countries in which they invest. As of December 31, 2025, the Fund had 92.51% of the value of its net assets invested in stocks domiciled in India.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Trust indemnifies its officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from their performance of their duties to the Trust or the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties 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.

NOTE 11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management of the Fund has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date at which these financial statements were issued. Based upon this evaluation, management has determined there were no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosure.
