How did the Fund perform during the reporting period?

• For the year January 1 to December 31, 2025, the Fund's Class A Shares returned 28.14 percent with no load and 23.66 percent with the load.

• For the six-month period from July 1 to December 31, 2025, the Fund's Class A Shares gained 7.35 percent with no load and 3.59 percent with the load.

• For the year January 1 to December 31, 2025, the Fund's Class A Shares paid an ordinary dividend of $0.90. There were no capital gains paid.

• During the six-month period from July 1 to December 31, 2025, the Fund added positions in 2 new companies: Corning, Inc., a manufacturer of industrial glass and related materials including solar photovoltaic cells and semi-conductors, and Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corp., a manufacturer of water management and conservation systems. The Fund's holding Manawa Energy Ltd., a New Zealand renewable energy utility, was acquired by Contact Energy Ltd., a similar company, and the Fund received shares of Contact Energy, which we have continued to hold in the Fund portfolio.

• What contributed to performance:

The strongest sectors of the Fund's portfolio were: Solar Photovoltaic, Wind Turbines, Energy Management, Energy Storage, and Recycling & Waste Management, which comprise a total of 23.1 percent of our holdings. The Utilities, Energy Conservation, Sustainable Energy Financial Services, Water Systems, and Transportation sectors, which comprise approximately 44.5 percent of holdings, also contributed more modest gains to the portfolio. A strong Euro value against the U.S. Dollar also added to the Fund's overall performance. Approximately 43.5 percent of the companies we hold are Euro denominated, including 6 of our top 10 positions.

• What detracted from performance:

The largest sector in the Fund's holdings, Renewable Energy Power Producers and Developers, which comprise just over 27 percent of our stocks, continued to underperform in general. We have been trimming a number of our holdings here to create a better balance in the total portfolio. This sector ended the year down just under 9.5 percent. Our single stock in Natural and Organic Food, Sprouts Farmers Market, was also down significantly, 46.5 percent, over the course of the year, although it only constitutes 0.4 percent of holdings.

NEW ALTERNATIVES FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
1. ORGANIZATION

New Alternatives Fund (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 12, 2014. The Trust currently offers one series of shares, also known as “New Alternatives Fund” (the “Fund”). The Fund is the successor to New Alternatives Fund, Inc. (the “Predecessor Company”), a New York corporation that commenced operations in 1982. The Fund is a diversified, open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). On November 14, 2014, the Predecessor Company was reorganized into the Fund. The Fund was organized for the purpose of continuing the investment operations and performance history of the Predecessor Company and prior to the reorganization had no substantial assets or prior history of investment operations. The Fund currently offers two classes of shares: Class A Shares and Investor Shares. Class A Shares represent a continuance of the original class of shares offered by the Predecessor Company. Class A Shares are sold subject to a front-end sales charge. Investor Shares are also subject to 12b-1 fees. The investment objective of the Fund is long-term capital appreciation, with income as a secondary objective. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in equity securities. The equity securities in which the Fund invests consist primarily of common stocks. Other equity securities in which the Fund may invest include “Yieldco’s”, American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and publicly-traded master limited partnerships (“MLPs”). The Fund makes investments in a wide range of industries and in companies of all sizes. The Fund invests in equity securities of both U.S. and foreign companies, and has no limitation on the percentage of assets invested in the U.S. or abroad. Under normal market conditions, at least 25% of the Fund’s total assets will be invested in equity securities of companies in the alternative energy industry. “Alternative Energy” or “Renewable Energy” means the production, conservation, storage and transmission of energy to reduce pollution and harm to the environment, particularly when compared to conventional coal, oil or nuclear energy.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Fund is an investment company that follows the accounting and reporting guidance of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to Investment Companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund.

Segment Reporting - An operating segment is defined 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 comprised of the portfolio manager and Chief Financial Officer of the Trust. 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.

A. PORTFOLIO VALUATION - The Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) is calculated once daily at the close of regular trading hours on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each day the NYSE is open. Securities held by the Fund are valued based on the official closing price or the last reported sale price on national securities exchanges where they are primarily traded or on the National Association of Securities. Dealers Automatic Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) market system as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. That is normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. If there were no sales on that day or the securities are traded on other over- the-counter markets, the mean of the last bid and asked prices prior to the market close is used. Short-term debt securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are amortized based on their cost. Certificates of Deposit are valued at amortized cost, provided such amount approximates market value and are categorized in Level 2.

Non-U.S. equity securities are valued based on their most recent closing market prices on their primary market and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates on the day of valuation. The Fund may hold securities that are primarily listed on foreign exchanges that trade on weekends or other days when the Fund does not price its shares. As such, the Fund’s NAV may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem Fund shares.

If the market price of a security held by the Fund is unavailable at the time the Fund prices its shares at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, the Fund will use the “fair value” of such security as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment advisor as “valuation designee” under methods established by and under the general supervision of the Trust’s Board of Trustees. Fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investments. The Fund may use fair value pricing if the value of a security it holds has been materially affected by events occurring before the Fund’s pricing time but after the close of the primary markets or exchange on which the security is traded. This most commonly occurs with foreign securities, but may occur in other cases as well. Certain foreign securities are fair valued by utilizing an external pricing service in the event of any significant market movements between the time the Fund valued such foreign securities and the earlier closing of foreign markets. On a quarterly basis, the valuation designee’s fair value determinations will be reviewed by the Board of Trustees. The Fund does not invest in unlisted securities.

The inputs and valuations techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s net assets are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund 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 relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of December 31, 2025 in valuing the Fund’s assets carried at fair value:

New Alternatives Fund
Assets* Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Common Stock $ 261,460,923 $ - $ - $ 261,460,923
Certificate of Deposits - 313,002 - 313,002
Total $ 261,460,923 $ 313,002 $ - $ 261,773,925

The Fund did not hold any Level 3 securities during the year ended December 31, 2025.

* Refer to the Schedule of Investments for security classifications.

At the end of each calendar quarter, management evaluates the classification of Level 1, 2 and 3 assets and liabilities. Various factors are considered, such as changes in liquidity from the prior reporting period; whether or not a broker is willing to execute at the quoted price; the depth and consistency of prices from third party pricing services; and the existence of contemporaneous, observable trades in the market. Additionally, management evaluates the classification of Level 1 and Level 2 assets and liabilities on a quarterly basis for changes in listings or delistings on national exchanges.

The Fund utilizes an external pricing service to fair value certain foreign securities in the event of any significant market movements between the time the Fund valued certain foreign securities and the earlier closing of foreign markets. Such fair valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Significant market movements were not deemed to have occurred at December 31, 2025, and therefore, the Fund did not utilize the external pricing service model adjustments. Transfers in and out between Levels are based on values at the end of the period.

B. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. If foreign currency translations are not available, the foreign exchange rate(s) will be valued at fair market value using procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.

The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

10

NEW ALTERNATIVES FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
December 31, 2025

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Such gains or losses are included in net realized gain or loss from currency transactions on the Statement of Operations.

C. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME - Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date order to buy or sell is executed). The cost of investments sold is determined by use of specific lots for both financial reporting and income tax purposes in determining realized gains and losses on investments.

D. INVESTMENT INCOME AND EXPENSE RECOGNITION - Dividend income is recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Foreign dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or as soon as possible after the Fund determines the existence of a dividend declaration after exercising reasonable diligence. Interest income, including amortization/accretion of premium and discount, is accrued daily. Return of capital distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of the related investments. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and reclaims as applicable, based upon the current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which that Fund invests. The Fund applies for refunds where available. Expenses are accrued on a daily basis. Fund level expenses common to all classes are allocated to each class based upon relative daily net assets of each class. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the asset received.

E. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and paid at least annually to shareholders and recorded on ex-date. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on unrealized and realized gains on certain foreign investments. The Fund will accrue such taxes and reclaims, as applicable, based upon the current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the market in which the Fund invests. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

F. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - The Fund has qualified and intends to continue 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 annually distributing substantially all net investment company taxable income and net realized capital gains, no provision for federal income tax is required. The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the Fund’s tax positions and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken in the current tax year or on returns filed in previous tax years which are still open to examination by all major tax authorities (generally, federal returns are open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from date of filing) The Fund recognizes 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, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. The Fund typically intend to annually distribute sufficient net investment company taxable income and net realized capital gains if any, so that they will not be subject to the excise tax on undistributed income of RICs. If the required amount of net investment income or gains is not distributed annually, the Fund could incur a tax expense.

G. USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

H. OTHER - In the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on claims that may be made against the Fund in the future, and therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, the risk of material loss for such claims is considered remote.

I. ALLOCATION - Investment income earned, realized capital gains and losses, and unrealized appreciation and depreciation for the Fund are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon its proportionate share of total net assets of the Fund. Class- specific expenses are charged directly to the class incurring the expense. Common expenses, which are not attributable to a specific class, are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon its proportionate share of total net assets of the Fund.

The Fund’s share price is based upon the daily net asset value of its shares. The Fund’s offering price for its Class A Shares is the net asset value per share plus a front-end sales charge. The front-end sales charge provides payment to brokers or the underwriter and/or sub-distributor of the Fund. The Class A Shares of the Fund do not have any distribution (i.e., Rule 12b-1) charges, service charges or redemption fees. The front-end sales charge you pay depends on the dollar amount invested, as shown in the table below. Front-end sales charges are not imposed upon reinvested dividends or distributions. Investor Shares are subject to 12b-1 fees, as discussed below in Note 4. Investor Shares are not subject to a sales charge but are subject to a 2.00% redemption fee imposed on any Investor Shares redeemed within sixty days of their purchase. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the redemption fees charged by the Funds are included in the capital share amount in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets and can also be found broken out above.

4) MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Accrued Equities, Inc. (“Accrued Equities” or the “Advisor”), an SEC registered investment advisor and broker-dealer, serves as investment advisor to the Fund pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement, and as an underwriter (but not a principal underwriter) of the Fund’s shares pursuant to a Sub-Distribution Agreement. For its investment advisory services, the Fund pays Accrued Equities an annual management fee of 1.00% of the first $25 million of average daily net assets; 0.50% of the next $475 million of average daily net assets; and 0.40% of average daily net assets more than $500 million. The fee is accrued daily and paid monthly, in arrears. The Fund incurred management fees of $1,426,773 for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The Fund pays no remuneration to two of its trustees, David J. Schoenwald and Murray D. Rosenblith, who are also officers and owners of Accrued Equities.

Foreside Funds Distributors LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as the principal underwriter of the Fund pursuant to a Distribution Agreement for the limited purpose of acting as statutory underwriter to facilitate the distribution of shares of the Fund. The Distributor has entered into a Sub-Distribution Agreement with Accrued Equities. The Fund charges a maximum front-end sales charge of 3.50% on most new sales of the Fund’s Class A Shares. Of this amount, the Distributor and Accrued Equities receive the net underwriter commission and pay out the remaining sales commission to other brokers who actually sell new Class A Shares. Their share of the sales commission may vary. The aggregate underwriter commissions on all sales of Class A Shares of the Fund for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $8,100 and the amounts received by the Distributor and Accrued Equities were $7,014 and $1,086, respectively. The Distributor and Accrued

12

NEW ALTERNATIVES FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
December 31, 2025

Equities are also entitled to receive sales commissions for the sale of Class A Shares. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Distributor and Accrued Equities received $20,379 and $3,885 in sales commissions, respectively, for the sale of Class A Shares of the Fund. Underwriter commissions and sales commissions received by the Distributor are set aside by the Distributor and used solely for distribution-related expenses.

Investor Shares of the Fund are not subject to a sales charge. The Fund has adopted a distribution plan (the “Rule 12b-1 Plan”) for its Investor Shares in accordance with the requirements of Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Rule 12b-1 Plan provides that the Fund may pay a fee to Accrued Equities, the Distributor, or certain broker-dealers, investment advisers, banks or other financial institutions at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund’s Investor Shares to finance certain activities primarily intended to sell such Investor Shares. For the year ended December 31, 2025, 12b-1 Fees of $37,024 were accrued by the Investor Shares of the Fund.

The Board of Trustees has authorized the Class A Shares of the Fund to pay sub-transfer agent fees to financial intermediaries, including securities dealers, that provide shareholder account-related services to their customers who own Class A Shares of the Fund, or to reimburse Accrued Equities for such expenses it reimbursed on behalf of the Class A Shares. The sub-transfer agent services provided must be necessary and may not duplicate services already provided by a Fund service provider. The sub-transfer agent services may not be for distribution-related services. The fees paid by the Class A Shares may not exceed the fees that would have been incurred by customers of the financial intermediaries if they maintained their customer account directly with the Fund.

5) TRUSTEES’ FEES

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund paid trustees’ fees of $41,664 to its Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”).

For the year ended December 31, 2025, each Independent Trustee receives an annual fee of $14,000 for their services as an Independent Trustee of the Trust. As Vice-Chairperson of the Trust’s Board of Trustees, Sharon Reier receives an additional annual fee of $2,500. Each member of the Audit Committee receives an additional $1,000 annual fee and Susan Hickey, Chairperson of the Audit Committee, receives an additional annual fee of $500. The Independent Trustees are also entitled to receive reimbursement of “coach” travel expenses to attend Board Meetings. The Trustees and Officers of the Trust, who are officers and owners of the Advisor do not receive compensation from the Fund for their services and are paid for their services by the Advisor. The Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer is not an officer or employee of the Advisor and is compensated directly by the Fund for his services.

9) RISKS

Foreign Securities - Investing in foreign securities (including depositary receipts traded on U.S. exchanges but representing shares of foreign companies) involves more risks than investing in U.S. securities. Risks of investing in foreign companies include currency exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar. The political, economic and social structures of some foreign countries may be less stable and more volatile than those in the U.S. Brokerage commissions and other fees may be higher for foreign securities. Foreign companies may not be subject to the same disclosure, accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards as U.S. companies. These risks can increase the potential for losses in the Fund and affect its share price.

Cash and Foreign Currency Concentration - Cash and foreign currency consists of cash and foreign currency on deposit with financial institutions. Cash held in banks periodically exceeds the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (“FDIC”) insurance coverage of $250,000, and as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts in excess of the FDIC insurance coverage.

14

NEW ALTERNATIVES FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
December 31, 2025

Concentration - Under normal market conditions, at least 25% of the Fund’s total asset will be invested in equity securities of companies in the Alternative Energy industry. A downturn in this group of industries would have a larger impact on the Fund than on a fund that does not concentrate its investments. As of December 31, 2025 the Fund had 35.2% of its net assets invested in Alternative Energy companies.

10) ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

The Fund adopted the FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”), 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. The Fund’s adoption of ASU 2023-09 did not have a material impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

11) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events after the date of the Statements of Assets and Liabilities have been evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued. Management has determined that no events or transactions occurred requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of New Alternatives Fund

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of New Alternatives Fund (the “Fund”) as of December 31, 2025, the related statement 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 three 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 the Fund as of December 31, 2025, the results of its 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 three years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Fund’s financial highlights for the years ended December 31, 2022 and prior, were audited by other auditors whose report dated February 27,2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s 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 Fund 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 other institutions. 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 Fund’s auditor since 2023.
