managment's discussion of fund performance

During the period ended August 31, 2026, the Archer Balanced Fund pursued its investment objective of total return by maintaining a diversified portfolio of equity and fixed income securities. Under normal market conditions, the Fund targets an allocation of 70% equity securities and 30% fixed income securities. For the equity component of the portfolio, the Fund sought to achieve this objective by employing a top-down approach of evaluating industries and sectors of the economy that are likely to benefit from current economic conditions and then employing a disciplined valuation approach to identify companies selling below the managers estimate of intrinsic value. Fixed income are securities selected to maintain a diversified portfolio with a short-to-intermediate average portfolio duration and primarily investment grade credit ratings. Market conditions were generally supportive of the Fund's investment strategy.

managment's discussion of fund performance

During the period ended August 31, 2026, the Archer Income Fund pursued its investment objective of maximizing current income, consistent with the preservation of capital. The fund invests primarily in investment grade securities and may also invest a portion of its assets in preferred securities, non-investment grade, global, and floating rate issues. The Fund has maintained a relatively short average duration investment grade profile which has added stability and reasonable income in a relatively volatile interest rate environment. Longer duration positions have been added selectively when attractive risk versus reward opportunities have been presented. This relatively conservative approach to duration risk has supported fund performance relative to the broader fixed income market.

managment's discussion of fund performance

During the period ended August 31, 2026, the Archer Stock Fund pursued its investment objective of capital appreciation by maintaining a diversified portfolio of common stocks and equity securities which managers believe are selling at prices below the long-term intrinsic value. Securities are selected based on research of a company's forecasted, current, and historical data. Managers evaluate factors that include financial performance, valuation metrics, earnings, and price momentum, as well as current and forecasted macroeconomic conditions. Managers consider the same factors used in evaluating a security for purchase and generally sell or reduce exposure to securities when managers believe conditions are less favorable for a particular security. Market conditions were generally supportive of the Fund's investment strategy with portfolio companies exhibiting growth and momentum factors performing well. Value factor company returns improved relative to prior years but still underperformed growth, while quality factor companies continued to underperform the market.

managment's discussion of fund performance

During the period ended August 31, 2026, the Archer Focus Fund pursued its investment objective of long-term growth of capital by investing in financially sound, large, and medium-sized companies with dominant franchises. Under normal conditions, the Fund holds a relatively concentrated portfolio of 50 or fewer US common stocks. Potential investments are carefully screened for balance sheet strength, sustainable earnings and free cash flow, and durable market position. Relative to broad market averages, the fund underperformed as the Fund's focus on quality, stability, and conservative value were out of favor relative to high growth and momentum. Management continues to believe that disciplined investment in financially sound companies selling at attractive valuations will reward patient shareholders over time.

Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

The Archer Investment Series Trust, an Ohio business trust (the "Trust"), is an open-end investment management company established under the laws of Ohio by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated October 7, 2009 (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. The Trust currently consists of seven funds: The Archer Balanced Fund (the "Balanced Fund"), the Archer Income Fund (the "Income Fund"), the Archer Stock Fund (the "Stock Fund"), the Archer Dividend Growth Fund (the "Dividend Growth Fund"), the Archer Focus Fund (the "Focus Fund"), and the Archer Multi Cap Fund (the "Multi Cap Fund"), each a diversified fund, (collectively referred to as the "Funds"), along with an additional fund, the Archer Growth ETF, which is reported in a separate filing.

The Balanced Fund commenced operations on September 27, 2005. The investment objective of the Balanced Fund is total return. Total return is comprised of both income and capital appreciation. The Income Fund and the Stock Fund each commenced investment operations on March 11, 2011. The investment objective of the Income Fund is income while secondarily striving for capital appreciation. The investment objective of the Stock Fund is capital appreciation. The Archer Dividend Growth Fund commenced operations on September 1, 2016. The investment objective of the Dividend Growth Fund is to provide income and, as a secondary focus, long-term capital appreciation. The Focus Fund and Multi Cap Fund each commenced operations on December 30, 2019. The investment objective of the Focus Fund is long-term growth of capital. The investment objective of the Multi Cap Fund is long-term growth of capital. The investment advisor to the Funds is Archer Investment Corporation, Inc. (the "Advisor"). See Note 5 for additional information regarding the Advisor.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The Funds are investment companies that follow the accounting and reporting guidance of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies.

Securities Valuation - All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value as described in Note 3.

Federal Income Taxes- The Funds make no provision for federal income or excise tax. The Funds intend to qualify each year as "regulated investment companies" ("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 their taxable income. The Funds also intend to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that they 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. Therefore, no federal income tax or excise provision is required.

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements and modifies or eliminates certain existing disclosure provisions. The amendments in this ASU are intended to address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information and to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 applies to all entities that are subject to Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes. For the year ended August 31, 2026, total cash paid for income taxes was disaggregated by jurisdiction as follows:

Fund Federal State Foreign Country
Balanced Fund $ - $ - $ 7,044 Switzerland
Income Fund $ - $ - $ -
Stock Fund $ - $ - $ 803 Ireland
Dividend Growth Fund $ - $ - $ 6,440 Canada
Focus Fund $ - $ - $ -
Multi Cap Fund $ - $ - $ 421 Canada

The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Funds' tax positions and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years (2023-2025) or expected to be taken in the Funds' 2026 tax returns. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal.

The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year ended August 31, 2026, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

Security Transactions and Related Income - The Funds follow industry practice and record security transactions on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are computed using the specific cost of the security. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted or amortized using the straight line method. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds' understanding of the applicable country's tax rules and rates. Distributions received from certain investments held by the Funds may be comprised of dividends, realized gains and returns of capital. The amounts may subsequently be reclassified upon receipt of information from the issuer.

Dividends and Distributions - The Funds typically will distribute substantially all of their net investment income in the form of dividends and capital gains to its shareholders. The Balanced Fund will distribute dividends quarterly and capital gains annually, and expects that distributions will consist primarily of ordinary income. The Income and Dividend Growth Fund will distribute dividends monthly and capital gains annually, and expect that distributions will consist primarily of ordinary income. The Stock Fund, Focus Fund, and Multi Cap Fund may distribute dividends quarterly and capital gains annually, and expect that distributions will consist primarily of ordinary income. 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. These differences are caused primarily by differences in the timing of the recognition of certain components of income, expenses or realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes. Where such differences are permanent in nature, they are reclassified in the components of the 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 per share of the Funds.

Redemption Fee - To discourage short-term trades by investors, the Funds will impose a redemption fee. The Funds will each impose a redemption fee of 1.00% of the total redemption amount (calculated at market value) if shares are redeemed within 90 calendar days of purchase. For the year ended August 31, 2026, the Balanced Fund, Income Fund, Stock Fund, Dividend Growth Fund, Focus Fund, and Multi Cap Fund collected $4,168, $936, $256, $545, $515, and $1,777 in redemption fees, respectively.

Options - The Balanced and Income Funds may sell covered call options as part of their investment programs to obtain market exposure or to manage risk or hedge against adverse market conditions. When a fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the fund is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current fair value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the fund on the expiration date as realized gains from investments. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss.

If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security or currency in determining whether the fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the fund. The fund, as writer of an option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. Neither the Balanced or Income Funds engaged in options activity during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2026.

Structured Notes - The Balanced Fund and Income Fund invest in structured notes which are subject to a number of fixed income risks including general market risk, interest rate risk, as well as the risk that the issuer on the note may fail to make interest and/ or principal payments when due, or may default on its obligations entirely. In addition, as a result of imbedded derivative features in these securities, structured notes generally are subject to more risk than investing in a simple note or bond issued by the same issuer. See Note 4 for additional information related to Structured Notes.

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 other appropriate basis as determined by the Board.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 these estimates.

NOTE 3. SECURITIES VALUATION

Processes and Structure

The Funds' Board of Trustees has adopted guidelines for valuing securities including in circumstances in which market quotes are not readily available and has delegated to the Adviser the responsibility for determining fair value prices, subject to review by the Board of Trustees.

In accordance with the Trust's good faith pricing guidelines, the Advisor 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. No single standard 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 an issue of securities being valued by the Advisor would appear to be the amount which the owner might reasonably expect to receive for them upon their current sale. Methods which are in accordance with this principle may, for example, be based on (i) a multiple of earnings; (ii) a discount from market 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. Good faith pricing is permitted if, in the Advisor'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 Funds' NAV calculation that may affect a security's value, or the Advisor is aware of any other data that calls into question the reliability of market quotations. Good faith pricing may also be used in instances when the bonds the Funds invest in may default or otherwise cease to have market quotations readily available.

Hierarchy of Fair Value Inputs

The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of most of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs are as follows:

· Level 1. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the company has the ability to access.
· Level 2. Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.
· Level 3. Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the company's own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Fair Value Measurements

A description of the valuation techniques applied to each Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows:

Equity securities (common and preferred stock, exchange traded fund/notes, real estate investment trusts). Securities traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the NASDAQ national market) are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. To the extent these securities are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Certain foreign securities may be fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as American Depositary Receipts, financial futures, Exchange Traded Funds, and the movement of the certain indexes of securities based on a statistical analysis of the historical relationship and that are categorized in level 2. Preferred stock and other equities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are also categorized in level 2.

Fixed income securities (corporate bonds, municipal bonds, preferred bonds and structured notes). The fair value of fixed income securities is estimated using various techniques, which may consider recently executed transactions in securities of the issuer or comparable issuers, market price quotations (when observable), bond spreads, fundamental data relating to the issuer, and credit default swap spreads adjusted for any basis difference between cash and derivative instruments. Although most fixed income securities are categorized in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, in instances when lower relative weight is placed on transaction prices, quotations, or similar observable inputs, they are categorized in level 3.

U.S. government agencies & obligations. U.S. government agencies & obligations are normally valued using market observable data, such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, and reference data. Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations. U.S. government obligations are categorized in level 1 or level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used and market activity levels for specific securities.

Investments in open-end mutual funds including money market funds are valued at their closing net asset value each business day and are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Archer Balanced Fund

The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses through December 31, 2026 so that total annual operating expenses, excluding brokerage fees and commissions, borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expenses on securities sold short), taxes, extraordinary expenses, and any indirect expenses (such as expenses incurred by other investment companies in which the Balanced Fund invests) do not exceed 1.20% of the Balanced Fund's average daily net assets. For the year ended August 31, 2026, the Advisor waived fees of $8,177. Pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement, if the Adviser so requests, any Fund Operating Expenses waived or reimbursed by the Adviser pursuant to the Agreement that had the effect of reducing Fund Operating Expenses to 1.20% within the most recent three years prior to recoupment shall be repaid to the Adviser by the Fund; provided, however, that such recoupment will not cause the Fund's expense ratio, after recoupment has been taken into account, to exceed the lesser of the expense cap in effect at the time of the waiver or the expense cap in effect at the time of recoupment. Advisory fees waived and/or reimbursed expenses that may be subject to potential recoupment by the Advisor through August 31, 2029 totaled $79,973. As of August 27, 2026, the Adviser has waived future recoupment for the year ended August 31, 2026.

NOTE 10. INDEMNIFICATIONS

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain general indemnification to other parties. The Funds' maximum exposure under these contracts is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. The Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

NOTE 11. MARKET RISK

Overall market risks may also affect the value of the Funds. Factors such as domestic economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels and political events affect the securities markets. Local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issue, recessions and depressions, or other events could have a significant impact on each Fund and its investments and could result in increased premiums or discounts to each Fund's net asset value, and may impair market liquidity, thereby increasing liquidity risk. The Funds could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns. During a general market downturn, multiple asset classes may be negatively affected. Changes in market conditions and interest rates can have the same impact on all types of securities and instruments.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of

Archer Balanced Fund, Archer Income Fund, Archer Stock Fund, Archer Dividend Growth Fund,

Archer Focus Fund and Archer Multi Cap Fund, each a Series of the Archer Investment Series Trust

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the Archer Balanced Fund, Archer Income Fund, Archer Stock Fund, Archer Dividend Growth Fund, Archer Focus Fund and Archer Multi Cap Fund (collectively the "Funds"), each a series of the Archer Investment Series Trust (the "Trust"), including the schedules of investments, as of August 31, 2026, 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, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements") and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended for the Funds.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of the Funds as of August 31, 2026, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their 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 and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2026, by correspondence with the custodian. 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 and financial highlights. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more investment companies in the

Archer Investment Series Trust since 2011.

Annual Renewal of the Management Services Agreement with Archer Investment Corporation with respect to the Archer Balanced Fund, the Archer Income Fund, the Archer Stock Fund, the Archer Dividend Growth Fund, the Archer Focus Fund, and the Archer Multi Cap Fund.

At a meeting duly held on August 27, 2026 (the "Meeting"), the Board of Trustees of the Archer Investment Series Trust (the "Board"), including the Independent Trustees voting separately, considered and approved the continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Funds and Archer Investment Corporation (the "Advisor") (the "Advisory Agreement" or "Management Services Agreement"). The Board noted that on August 20, 2026, it convened separately to review and consider the materials furnished by the Advisor pursuant to its requests in satisfaction of Rule 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 in advance of the Board's consideration of the continuation of the Advisory Agreement. All Trustees, including each of the Independent Trustees, were present for the Board's consideration of, and action with respect to, the foregoing matter.

In connection with its consideration of the continuation of the Management Services Agreement, the Trustees requested, received, and reviewed information furnished by the Adviser concerning: (i) the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Adviser; (ii) the investment performance of each Fund; (iii) the costs of the services provided and the profitability realized by the Adviser in connection with its relationship with each Archer Fund; (iv) the financial condition of the Adviser; (v) the extent to which economies of scale may be realized as the assets of each Fund increase; and (vi) whether the applicable fee levels reflect any such economies of scale for the benefit of each Fund's shareholders.

Prior to the Meetings, the Independent Trustees received and reviewed materials furnished by the Advisor and consulted with their independent legal counsel regarding the fiduciary duties and responsibilities applicable to their consideration of the continuation of the Archer Fund's Management Services Agreement. The Independent Trustees also met separately with their independent legal counsel in executive session, without representatives of management present. Throughout the review and deliberative process, the Trustees were afforded the opportunity to submit questions to the Advisor and independent legal counsel, and the responses thereto were considered together with the materials furnished in connection with the Board's determination.

In evaluating the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Adviser to the Funds, the Trustees reviewed and considered the backgrounds, qualifications, and experience of the Adviser's investment, operational, and compliance personnel, including the respective responsibilities of such personnel and their relevant experience in the financial services industry. In particular, the Trustees noted that Mr. Patton had managed the Adviser and the Funds' assets since their inception and that Mr. Rosebrough had served as co-manager of the Funds throughout the same period. The Trustees further considered the Adviser's obligations under the Management Services Agreement, the adequacy and effectiveness of the Adviser's compliance program, and the Adviser's role in coordinating the services and programs provided to the Funds.

Following its review of the materials furnished by the Adviser and its discussion with the Adviser concerning the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided, the Board concluded that such services were of a high quality, reasonable in scope, and consistent with the Board's expectations and the terms of the existing and proposed Management Services Agreement.

With respect to the investment performance of each Fund, the Trustees reviewed each Fund's results over multiple time periods and compared those results with the performance of managed mutual funds of comparable asset size within the Fund's applicable Morningstar category. The Trustees also considered whether the Adviser's management of each Fund was consistent with the Fund's investment objectives and policies, together with the Fund's overall performance as reflected in the materials presented at the Meeting and in the reports reviewed by the Board quarterly during the preceding fiscal year.

The Trustees noted that the Fund's 3-year tax cost ratio of 0.93% was comparatively lower than its category of 1.39%. In particular, the Trustees further noted that a $10,000.00 investment in the Fund would have yielded a return of $20,333.00 compared to its category which would have yielded a $19,951.00 return. Finally, the Trustees noted that the Fund's annualized returns for the 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods were 14.43%, 8.73%, and 8.80%, respectively, compared with 11.99%, 7.16%, and 7.92%, respectively, for funds of similar asset size in its comparative group.

After further considering each Fund's performance, the Board concluded that the results demonstrated the Adviser's ability to manage the Funds' assets effectively over the long term and across varying market conditions. The Trustees also found the Adviser's experience, historical performance data, and other supporting information satisfactory.

In evaluating the fees and expenses paid by each Archer Fund, the Trustees reviewed each Fund's overall expenses and asset levels, together with comparable category expenses and expenses of similarly sized funds. The Board discussed with the Adviser the methodology used to compile its profitability information and noted that the Adviser's relationship with the Funds was profitable. The Board also considered the Adviser's efforts to remain competitive by continuing to reduce advisory and administrative fees charged to shareholders. In addition, the Trustees considered the potential benefits to the Adviser from managing the Archer Funds, including its engagement by the Trust under a separate agreement to provide certain administrative services. Based on these considerations, the Independent Trustees concluded that the fees payable to, and profits realized by the Adviser were fair and reasonable in relation to the nature and quality of its services and that the Adviser was financially capable of fulfilling its obligations under the Management Services Agreement.

The Trustees further recognized that the Adviser benefited from its reputation and association with the Archer Funds. They also considered other potential benefits to the Adviser and concluded that those benefits were consistent with those typically received by investment managers of mutual funds.

After reviewing the foregoing and other information they considered relevant, the Trustees concluded, based on all the facts and circumstances, that the other benefits the Adviser derived from its relationship with the Funds were satisfactory.

Regarding economies of scale, the Trustees noted that the Management Services Agreement contained no breakpoints reducing the advisory fee rate for assets above specified levels. They also noted that the Adviser had historically and voluntarily reduced certain Archer Funds' expense limitations for the benefit of shareholders and remained contractually obligated to maintain the current expense limitation agreement through December 31, 2026. The Trustees further considered the potential benefits to the Adviser from managing multiple series of the Trust including the newly formed Archer Growth ETF Fund and noted that the Adviser did not currently participate in any soft-dollar arrangements.

Having requested and received such information as they reasonably deemed necessary to evaluate the continuation of the Management Services Agreement, and with the assistance of legal counsel, the Independent Trustees exercised their reasonable business judgment concluding that the contractual arrangement with each Fund was reasonable and that continuation of the Agreement was in the best interests of the Trust, each Fund, and each Fund's shareholders. The Independent Trustees determined that no single factor was dispositive; rather, based upon their consideration and weighing of all relevant factors, they concluded that continuation of the Agreement for an additional annual period was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders. Following their review of the Agreement with management and their opportunity to meet in executive session without representatives of the Adviser present, the Board of Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, adopted resolutions approving the continuation of the Agreement.
