The Unlimited HFND Multi- Strategy Return Tracker ETF is classified as diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The Unlimited HFND Multi-Strategy Return Tracker ETF was previously classified as non-diversified but has operated in a diversified manner for at least three years and is now considered diversified under the 1940 Act. The Unlimited HFEQ Equity Long/Short ETF, the Unlimited HFGM Global Macro ETF, and the Unlimited HFMF Managed Futures ETF are each classified as non-diversified under the 1940 Act. The Trust was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 4, 2018 and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the 1940 Act, as an open-end management investment company and the offering of each Fund's shares ("Shares") is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Trust is governed by its Board of Trustees (the "Board"). Tidal Investments LLC ("Tidal Investments" or the "Adviser"), a Tidal Financial Group company, serves as investment adviser to the Funds and Unlimited Funds, Inc. ("Unlimited" or the "Sub-Adviser") serves as investment sub-adviser. Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 "Financial Services - Investment Companies."

The investment objective for each Fund is to seek capital appreciation.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

Security Valuation - Equity securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC ("NASDAQ")), including securities traded over-the-counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded on the valuation date (or at approximately 4:00 p.m. EST if a security's primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent quoted bid price. For a security that trades on multiple exchanges, the primary exchange will generally be considered the exchange on which the security is generally most actively traded. For securities traded on the NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. Prices of securities traded on the securities exchange will be obtained from recognized independent pricing agents each day that the Funds are open for business.

Futures contracts are priced by an approved independent pricing service. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price on the exchange on which they are principally traded.

Investments in money market mutual funds are valued at each underlying fund's published net asset value ("NAV") per share as of the valuation time. Each underlying money market fund calculates NAV using the amortized cost method (which approximates fair value) as permitted by Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act.

19

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2026

Under Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, a fair value will be determined for securities for which quotations are not readily available by the Valuation Designee (as defined in Rule 2a-5) in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Policy and Fair Value Procedures, as applicable, of the Adviser, subject to oversight by the Board. When a security is "fair valued," consideration is given to the facts and circumstances relevant to the particular situation, including a review of various factors set forth in the Adviser's Pricing and Valuation Policy and Fair Value Procedures, as applicable. Fair value pricing is an inherently subjective process, and no single standard exists for determining fair value. Different funds could reasonably arrive at different values for the same security. The use of fair value pricing by a Fund may cause the NAV of its shares to differ significantly from the NAV that would be calculated without regard to such considerations.

As described above, the Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have 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 Funds' 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 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.

Notes to Financial Statements

Refer to the Schedules of Investments for further disaggregation of investment categories.

Derivative Instruments - The Funds have provided additional disclosures below regarding derivatives and hedging activity intending to improve financial reporting by enabling investors to understand how and why the Funds use futures contracts and purchased options on futures (types of derivatives), how they are accounted for and how they affect an entity's results of operations and financial position. The Funds may use derivatives for risk management purposes or as part of their investment strategies. Derivatives are financial contracts whose values depend on, or are derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate or index. A Fund may use derivatives to earn income and enhance returns, to hedge or adjust the risk profile of its portfolio, to replace more traditional direct investments and to obtain exposure to otherwise inaccessible markets.

During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2026, HFGM ETF and HFND ETF purchased put options on S&P 500 E-mini futures. Purchased put options give the holder the right to sell the underlying futures contract at a specified exercise price. Premiums paid are recorded as investments and subsequently valued at fair value, with changes in value reflected in unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Upon closing or expiration, the resulting gain or loss is recognized as realized.

All purchased put option positions were closed during the fiscal year, and neither Fund had purchased put options outstanding at August 31, 2026. Average notional amounts were calculated by dividing the sum of month end outstanding notional amounts by the number of month ends on which positions were outstanding during the fiscal year: three month ends for HFGM ETF and two month ends for HFND ETF. Months with no outstanding positions were excluded. The resulting average notional amounts were as follows:

Fund Instrument Average Notional Amount
HFGM ETF Purchased put options on futures $1,542,243
HFND ETF Purchased put options on futures 381,157

The average notional amount for futures contracts is based on the monthly notional amounts. The notional amount for futures contracts represents the U.S. dollar value of the contract as of the day of opening the transaction or latest contract reset date. Each Fund's average notional value of futures contracts outstanding during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2026 were:

Fund Instrument Average Notional Amount
HFEQ ETF Open Long Futures Contracts $21,412,767
Open Short Futures Contracts (2,279,247)
HFGM ETF Open Long Futures Contracts 271,590,469
Open Short Futures Contracts (136,311,030)
HFMF ETF Open Long Futures Contracts 19,264,886

(a) Consolidated Statement of Operations

The Funds are not subject to master netting agreements; therefore, no additional disclosures regarding netting agreements are required.

Federal Income Taxes - Each Fund has elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company ("RIC") and intends to distribute substantially all taxable income to its shareholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), applicable to RICs. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made.

24

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2026

In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to RICs, the Funds intend to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of their net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and at least 98.2% of their net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts, if any, from prior years. As a RIC, each Fund is subject to a 4% excise tax that is imposed if a Fund does not distribute by the end of any calendar year at least the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary income (not taking into account any capital gain or loss) for the calendar year and (ii) 98.2% of its capital gain in excess of its capital loss (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for a one-year period generally ending on October 31 of the calendar year (unless an election is made to use the Funds' fiscal year). The Funds generally intend to distribute income and capital gains in the manner necessary to minimize (but not necessarily eliminate) the imposition of such excise tax. The Funds may retain income or capital gains and pay excise tax when it is determined that doing so is in the best interest of shareholders. Management evaluates the costs of the excise tax relative to the benefits of retaining income and capital gains, including that such undistributed amounts (net of the excise tax paid) remain available for investment by the Funds and are available to supplement future distributions. Tax expense is disclosed in the Statements of Operations, if applicable.

As of August 31, 2026, the Funds did not have any tax positions that did not meet the threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Generally, tax authorities can examine all the tax returns filed for the last three years. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and the State of Delaware; however, the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits on uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. The Subsidiaries (defined below) are exempted Cayman investment companies and as such are not subject to Cayman Island taxes at the present time. For U.S. income tax purposes, the Subsidiaries are controlled foreign corporations not subject to U.S. income taxes. As wholly-owned controlled foreign corporations, the Subsidiaries' net income and capital gains, if any, will be included each year in the Funds' investment company taxable income.

Futures Contracts - The Funds may purchase futures contracts to gain long exposure to long-term U.S. Treasury bonds, commodities, foreign Government bonds, foreign stock indexes, and U.S. stock indexes. The purchase of futures contracts may be more efficient or cost-effective than buying the underlying securities or assets. A futures contract is an agreement that obligates the buyer to buy and the seller to sell a specified quantity of an underlying asset (or settle for cash the value of a contract based on an underlying asset, rate, or index) at a specific price on the contract maturity date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to pledge to the counterparty an amount of cash, U.S. Government securities or other high-quality debt securities equal to the minimum "initial margin" requirements of the exchange or the broker. Thereafter, a "variation margin" amount may be required to be paid by the Funds or received by the Funds in accordance with margin controls set for such accounts, depending upon changes in the marked-to-market value of the futures contract. The account is marked-to -market daily and the variation margin is monitored by the Adviser and Custodian (defined below) on a daily basis. When the contract is closed, the Funds record a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The Funds will cover their current obligations under futures contracts by the segregation of liquid assets or by entering into offsetting transactions or owning positions covering their obligations. The Funds' use of futures contracts may involve risks that are different from, or possibly greater than, the risk associated with investing directly in securities or other more traditional instruments. These risks include the risk that the value of the futures contracts may not correlate perfectly, or at all, with the value of the assets, reference rates, or indices that they are designed to track. Other risks include: an illiquid secondary market for a particular instrument and possible exchange-imposed price fluctuation limits, either of which may make it difficult or impossible to close out a position when desired; the risk that adverse price movements in an instrument can result in a loss substantially greater than a Fund's initial investment in that instrument (in some cases, the potential loss is unlimited); and the risk that a counterparty will not perform its obligations. The Funds had futures contracts activity during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2026. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in the Statements of Operations. The futures contracts held by the Funds are exchange-traded with Phillip Capital, Inc. and StoneX Financial, Inc. acting as the futures commission merchants.

Basis for Consolidation for the Funds (HFGM ETF, HFMF ETF, and HFND ETF Only) - Each applicable Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in its respective Subsidiary that is wholly-owned by the applicable Fund and organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands, the Unlimited HFGM Cayman Subsidiary ("HFGM CFC"), Unlimited HFMF Cayman Subsidiary ("HFMF CFC"), and Unlimited HFND Cayman Subsidiary ("HFND CFC"), respectively (each, a "Subsidiary", and collectively, the "Subsidiaries"). The Subsidiaries will generally invest in futures contracts that do not generate "qualifying income" under the source of income test required to qualify as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Unlike the Funds, the Subsidiaries may invest without limitation in futures contracts; however, the Subsidiaries will comply with the same 1940 Act requirements that are applicable to the Funds' transactions in derivatives. In addition, the Subsidiaries will be subject to the same fundamental investment restrictions and will follow the same compliance policies and procedures as the Funds. Unlike the Funds, the Subsidiaries will not seek to qualify as RICs under the Code. The Funds are the sole investor in their respective Subsidiaries and do not expect the shares of the Subsidiaries to be offered or sold to other investors. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation of the Funds and their Subsidiaries.

Each applicable Fund's investment in its Subsidiary as of August 31, 2026 was as follows:

Fund Subsidiary Net Assets % of Fund
HFGM ETF HFGM CFC $9,105,252 6.1%
HFMF ETF HFMF CFC 970,071 3.8%
HFND ETF HFND CFC 136,435 0.4%

Derivatives Transactions - Pursuant to Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act, the SEC imposes limits on the amount of derivatives a fund can enter into, eliminates the asset segregation and cover framework arising from prior SEC guidance for covering derivatives and certain financial instruments currently used by funds to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act and treats derivatives as senior securities. Under Rule 18f-4, a fund's derivatives exposure is limited through a value-at-risk test. Funds whose use of derivatives is more than a limited specified exposure amount are required to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives risk management program, subject to oversight by a fund's board of trustees, and appoint a derivatives risk manager. The Funds have implemented a Rule 18f-4 Derivative Risk Management Program that complies with Rule 18f-4.

Deposits at Brokers - Deposits at brokers for futures contracts, forward currency contracts, and securities sold short represent amounts that are held by third parties under certain of the Funds' derivative transactions. Such cash is excluded from cash and cash equivalents in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Cash and cash equivalents and deposits at broker are subject to credit risk to the extent those balances exceed applicable Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC") or Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") limitations.

Foreign Currency - 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.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2026

The Funds do 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.

The Funds report net realized foreign exchange gains or losses that 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 Funds' books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income - Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are determined on a specific identification basis. Discounts/premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted/amortized over the life of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Other non-cash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the property received. 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 to Shareholders - Distributions to shareholders from net investment income, if any, for the Funds are declared and paid annually. Distributions to shareholders from net realized gains on securities, if any, for the Funds normally are declared and paid at least annually. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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.

Share Valuation - The NAV per Share of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities by the total number of Shares outstanding for each Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. Fund Shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is closed for trading.

Guarantees and Indemnifications - In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

Illiquid Securities - Pursuant to Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act, the Funds have adopted a Board-approved Liquidity Risk Management Program (the "Program") that requires, among other things, that each Fund limit its illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of the value of the Fund's net assets. An illiquid investment is any security that a Fund reasonably expects cannot be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. If a Fund should be in a position where the value of illiquid investments held by a Fund exceeds 15% of the Fund's net assets, the Fund will take such steps as set forth in the Program.

27

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2026

Short Sales - Each Fund may make short sales as part of its overall portfolio management strategies or to offset a potential decline in value of a security. A short sale involves the sale of a security that is borrowed from a broker or other institution to complete the sale. A Fund may engage in short sales with respect to securities it owns, as well as securities that it does not own. Short sales expose a Fund to the risk that it will be required to acquire, convert or exchange securities to replace the borrowed security (also known as "covering" the short position) at a time when the security sold short has appreciated in value, thus resulting in a loss to the Fund. A Fund's investment performance may also suffer if the Fund is required to close out a short position earlier than it had intended. Each Fund must segregate assets determined to be liquid in accordance with procedures established by the Board, or otherwise cover its positions in a permissible manner. The Funds will be required to pledge their liquid assets to the broker to secure their performance on short sales. As a result, the assets pledged may not be available to meet the Funds' need for immediate cash or other liquidity. In addition, the Funds may be subject to expenses related to short sales that are not typically associated with investing in securities directly, such as costs of borrowing and margin account maintenance costs associated with each Fund's open short positions. These types of short sales expenses are sometimes referred to as the "negative cost of carry," and will tend to cause the Funds to lose money on a short sale even in instances where the price of the security sold short does not change over the duration of the short sale. Dividend expenses on securities sold short will be borne by the shareholders of each Fund.

Reclassification of Capital Accounts. U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per Share. These differences are primarily due to controlled foreign corporation ("CFC") adjustments, equalization, and redemption in kind. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2026, the following adjustments were made:

Total Distributable
Fund Paid-In Capital Earnings/(Accumulated Losses)
HFEQ ETF $ 558,625 $ (558,625)
HFGM ETF 105,150 (105,150)
HFMF ETF - -
HFND ETF 817,115 (817,115)

NOTE 3 - PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

Cayman Subsidiary Risk (HFGM ETF, HFMF ETF, and HFND ETF Only). By investing in the Subsidiary, each applicable Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the Subsidiary's investments. Futures contracts and swap agreements held by the Subsidiary are subject to the same economic risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the applicable Fund. The Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act, and, unless otherwise noted in this Prospectus, is not subject to all the investor protections of the 1940 Act. Changes in the laws of the United States and the Cayman Islands could result in the inability of the applicable Funds and/or the Subsidiaries to continue to operate as each does currently and could adversely affect the applicable Funds.

Commodity Risk (HFGM ETF, HFMF ETF, and HFND ETF Only). Underlying ETFs that invest in the commodities markets may be subject to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. Commodity prices may be influenced by unfavorable weather, animal and plant disease, geologic and environmental factors as well as changes in government regulation such as tariffs, embargoes or burdensome production rules and restrictions.

28

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2026

Currency ETF Risk (HFGM ETF and HFMF ETF Only). Currency ETFs in which the applicable Funds invest will determine their NAV in U.S. dollars. A Currency ETF's NAV could decline if the currency of one or more of the non-U.S. markets in which the Currency ETF invests depreciates against the U.S. dollar and the depreciation of one currency is not offset by appreciation in another currency and/or the Currency ETF's attempt to hedge currency exposure to the depreciating currency or currencies is unsuccessful. Generally, an increase in the value of the U.S. dollar against a foreign currency will reduce the value of a security denominated in that foreign currency. In addition, fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies could affect the economy or particular business operations of companies in a geographic region, including securities in which the Currency ETF invests, causing an adverse impact on the Currency ETF's investments in the affected region and the United States. As a result, investors (such as the Funds) have the potential for losses regardless of the length of time they intend to hold Currency ETF Shares. Currency exchange rates can be very volatile and can change quickly and unpredictably. As a result, a Currency ETF's NAV may change quickly and without warning.

Data Lag Risk. The Sub-Adviser's approach has limitations because the Models are derived using past returns data, and therefore each Fund's investment strategy is structurally time lagged. The delays between when particular hedge funds' returns occur and when they are reported create additional lag. The Sub-Adviser expects that these structural lags will create divergence between a Fund's returns and the corresponding hedge fund sector's returns.

Derivatives Risk. A Fund's or an Underlying ETF's derivative investments have risks, including the imperfect correlation between the value of such instruments and the underlying assets or index; the loss of principal, including the potential loss of amounts greater than the initial amount invested in the derivative instrument; the possible default of the other party to the transaction; and illiquidity of the derivative investments. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations under a derivative contract due to financial difficulties, a Fund or an Underlying ETF, as applicable, may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery under the derivative contract in a bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding. Derivative instruments may give rise to a form of leverage. Leverage magnifies the potential for gain and the risk of loss. Certain derivative investments could also affect the amount, timing, and character of distributions to shareholders, which may result in a Fund realizing more short-term capital gain and ordinary income subject to tax at ordinary income tax rates than it would if it did not engage in such transactions, which may adversely impact the Fund's after-tax returns.

Emerging Markets Risk. One or more of the applicable Funds may invest in Underlying ETFs that invest in securities issued by companies domiciled or headquartered in emerging market nations. Investments in securities traded in developing or emerging markets, or that provide exposure to such securities or markets, can involve additional risks relating to political, economic, currency, or regulatory conditions not associated with investments in U.S. securities and investments in more developed international markets. Such conditions may impact the ability of the Funds to buy, sell or otherwise transfer securities, adversely affect the trading market and price for Fund Shares and cause the applicable Fund to decline in value.

Equity Market Risk. The equity securities held by a Fund or by the Underlying ETFs in which such Fund invests may experience sudden, unpredictable drops in value or long periods of decline in value. This may occur because of factors that affect securities markets generally or factors affecting specific issuers, industries or sectors in which a Fund or an Underlying ETF invests. Common stocks are generally exposed to greater risk than other types of securities, such as preferred stock and debt obligations, because common stockholders generally have inferior rights to receive payment from issuers. Securities in a Fund's portfolio or an Underlying ETF's portfolio may underperform in comparison to securities in the general securities markets, a particular financial market or other asset classes, due to a number of factors, including inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters or events, pandemic diseases, terrorism, regulatory events or government controls.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2026

Exchange Traded Fund ("ETF") Risk.

• Authorized Participants, Market Makers, and Liquidity Providers Concentration Risk. The Funds have a limited number of financial institutions that are authorized to purchase and redeem shares directly from the Funds (known as "Authorized Participants" or "APs"). In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, Shares may trade at a material discount to NAV and possibly face delisting: (i) APs exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other APs step forward to perform these services, or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions.

• Cash Redemption Risk. The Funds' investment strategies may require them to redeem Shares for cash or to otherwise include cash as part of their redemption proceeds. For example, the Funds may not be able to redeem in-kind certain securities held by the Funds (e.g., derivative instruments that cannot be broken up beyond certain minimum sizes needed for transfer and settlement). In such a case, the Funds may be required to sell or unwind portfolio investments to obtain the cash needed to distribute redemption proceeds. This may cause the Funds to recognize a capital gain that they might not have recognized if they had made a redemption in-kind. As a result, the Funds may have less cash efficiency and pay out higher annual capital gain distributions to shareholders than if the in-kind redemption process was used. In addition, cash redemption costs could include brokerage costs or taxable gains or losses, which might not have otherwise been incurred if the redemption was fully in-kind.

• Costs of Buying or Selling Shares. Due to the costs of buying or selling Shares, including brokerage commissions imposed by brokers and bid-ask spreads, frequent trading of Shares may significantly reduce investment results and an investment in Shares may not be advisable for investors who anticipate regularly making small investments.

• Shares May Trade at Prices Other Than NAV. As with all ETFs, Shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. Although it is expected that the market price of Shares will approximate the Funds' NAV, there may be times when the market price of Shares is more than the NAV intra-day (premium) or less than the NAV intra-day (discount) due to supply and demand of Shares or during periods of market volatility. This risk is heightened in times of market volatility, periods of steep market declines, and periods when there is limited trading activity for Shares in the secondary market, in which case such premiums or discounts may be significant.

• Trading. Although Shares are listed for trading on a national securities exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange LLC (the "Exchange"), and may be traded on U.S. exchanges other than the Exchange, there can be no assurance that Shares will trade with any volume, or at all, on any stock exchange. In stressed market conditions, the liquidity of Shares may begin to mirror the liquidity of the Funds' underlying portfolio holdings, which can be significantly less liquid than Shares. Also, in stressed market conditions, the market for Shares may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the Funds' underlying portfolio holdings. These adverse effects on liquidity for Shares, in turn, could lead to wider bid-ask spreads and differences between the market price of Shares and the underlying value of those Shares.

Notes to Financial Statements

Factor Risk. The market may reward certain factors (such as value, momentum) for a period of time and not others. The average level of volatility for a specific risk factor may vary significantly relative to other risk factors and may increase or decrease significantly during different phases of an economic cycle.

Fixed-Income Securities Risk (HFGM ETF, HFMF ETF, and HFND ETF Only). Each Fund may invest in Underlying ETFs that invest in fixed-income securities. The prices of fixed-income securities may be affected by changes in interest rates, the creditworthiness and financial strength of the issuer, and other factors. An increase in prevailing interest rates typically causes the value of existing fixed-income securities to fall and often has a greater impact on longer-duration and/or higher-quality fixed-income securities. Falling interest rates will cause an Underlying ETF to reinvest the proceeds of fixed-income securities that have been repaid by the issuer at lower interest rates and may also reduce such Underlying ETF's distributable income because interest payments on floating-rate fixed-income instruments held by the Underlying ETF will decline. A Fund could lose money on indirect investments in fixed-income securities if the issuer or borrower fails to meet its obligations to make interest payments and/or to repay principal in a timely manner.

Foreign Securities Risk. Foreign securities held by Underlying ETFs in which a Fund invests involve certain risks not involved in domestic investments and may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than investments in securities of U.S. companies. Financial markets in foreign countries often are not as developed, efficient or liquid as financial markets in the United States, and therefore, the prices of non-U.S. securities can be more volatile. In addition, a Fund will be subject to risks associated with adverse political and economic developments in foreign countries, which may include the imposition of economic sanctions. Generally, there is less readily available and reliable information about non-U.S. issuers due to less rigorous disclosure or accounting standards and regulatory practices.

Futures Contracts Risk. A Fund or an Underlying ETF may invest in futures contracts. Risks of futures contracts include: (i) an imperfect correlation between the value of the futures contract and the underlying asset; (ii) possible lack of a liquid secondary market; (iii) the inability to close a futures contract when desired; (iv) losses caused by unanticipated market movements, which may be unlimited; (v) an obligation for a Fund or an Underlying ETF, as applicable, to make daily cash payments to maintain its required margin, particularly at times when such Fund or Underlying ETF may have insufficient cash; and (vi) unfavorable execution prices from rapid selling. Unlike equity securities, which typically entitle the holder to a continuing stake in a corporation, futures contracts normally specify a certain date for settlement in cash based on the reference asset. As the futures contracts approach expiration, they may be replaced by similar contracts that have a later expiration. This process is referred to as "rolling." If the market for these contracts is in "contango," meaning that the prices of futures contracts in the nearer months are lower than the price of contracts in the distant months, the sale of the near-term month contract would be at a lower price than the longer-term contract, resulting in a cost to "roll" the futures contract. The actual realization of a potential roll cost will be dependent upon the difference in price of the near and distant contract.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2026

General Market Risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions. The market value of a security in a Fund's portfolio may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. These fluctuations may cause a security to be worth less than the price a Fund originally paid for it, or less than it was worth at an earlier time. Securities in the Underlying ETFs' portfolios may underperform in comparison to securities in the general financial markets, a particular financial market or other asset classes, due to a number of factors, including inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters or events, pandemic diseases, terrorism, regulatory events and government controls.

High Portfolio Turnover Risk. The Indices (as defined in the prospectus) have historically had high portfolio turnover rates. As a result, each Fund is likewise expected to frequently trade all or a significant portion of the securities in its portfolio. A high portfolio turnover rate increases transaction costs, which may increase a Fund's expenses. Frequent trading may also cause adverse tax consequences for investors in a Fund due to an increase in short-term capital gains.

High-Yield Securities Risk. One or more of the applicable Funds may invest in Underlying ETFs that hold fixed-income securities rated below-investment-grade. Securities rated below-investment-grade are often referred to as high-yield securities or "junk bonds." Investments in lower-rated corporate-debt securities typically entail greater price volatility and principal and income risk. High-yield securities may be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse economic and competitive industry conditions than investment-grade securities. The prices of high-yield securities have been found to be more sensitive to adverse economic downturns or individual corporate developments.

Machine Learning, Model and Data Risk. Each Fund relies heavily on proprietary "machine learning" selection processes. In addition, the composition of each Fund's portfolio is heavily dependent on proprietary quantitative models as well as information and data supplied by third parties ("Models and Data"). As of the date of the Prospectus, the Sub-Adviser's machine learning models have not formed the basis of actual investments by the Sub-Adviser. To the extent the machine learning process does not perform as designed or as intended, a Fund's strategy may not be successfully implemented, and such Fund may lose value. Similarly, when Models and Data prove to be incorrect or incomplete, any decisions made in reliance thereon may lead to portfolio management decisions for a Fund that would not have been made had the Models and Data been correct and complete.

Management Risk. Each Fund is actively managed and may not meet its investment objective based on the Sub-Adviser's success or failure to implement investment strategies for such Fund. In addition, each Fund's principal investment strategies are dependent upon the Sub-Adviser's use of a machine learning security selection process and, as a result, the Sub-Adviser's skill in understanding and utilizing such process.

Market Capitalization Risk. These risks apply to the extent the Underlying ETFs in which a Fund invests hold securities of large-, mid- and small-capitalization companies.

• Large-Capitalization Investing. The securities of large-capitalization companies may be relatively mature compared to smaller companies and therefore subject to slower growth during times of economic expansion. Large- capitalization companies may also be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology and consumer tastes.
• Mid-Capitalization Investing. The securities of mid-capitalization companies may be more vulnerable to adverse issuer, market, political, or economic developments than securities of large-capitalization companies. The securities of mid-capitalization companies generally trade in lower volumes and are subject to greater and more unpredictable price changes than large capitalization stocks or the stock market as a whole.

32

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2026

• Small-Capitalization Investing. The securities of small-capitalization companies may be more vulnerable to adverse issuer, market, political, or economic developments than securities of large-or mid-capitalization companies. The securities of small-capitalization companies generally trade in lower volumes and are subject to greater and more unpredictable price changes than large- or mid-capitalization stocks or the stock market as a whole. There is typically less publicly available information concerning smaller-capitalization companies than for larger, more established companies.

Newer Fund Risk (HFEQ ETF, HFGM ETF, and HFMF ETF Only). Each Fund is a recently organized management investment company with limited operating history. As a result, prospective investors have a limited track record or history on which to base their investment decisions.

Non-Diversification Risk (HFEQ ETF, HFGM ETF, and HFMF ETF Only). Because each Fund is "non-diversified," it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers than if it were a diversified fund. As a result, a decline in the value of an investment in a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers could cause a Fund's overall value to decline to a greater degree than if such Fund held a more diversified portfolio.

Sector Risk. To the extent an Underlying ETF invests more heavily in particular sectors of the economy, its performance will be especially sensitive to developments that significantly affect those sectors.

Short Selling Risk. Each Fund may make short sales of securities of Underlying ETFs, which involves selling a security it does not own in anticipation that the price of the security will decline. Short sales may involve substantial risk and leverage. Short sales expose a Fund to the risk that it will be required to buy ("cover") the security sold short when the security has appreciated in value or is unavailable, thus resulting in a loss to such Fund. Short sales also involve the risk that losses may exceed the amount invested and may be unlimited.

Swap Agreement Risk . A Fund or an Underlying ETF may invest in swap agreements. Swap agreements could result in losses if the underlying asset or reference does not perform as anticipated. Swaps can have the potential for unlimited losses. They are also subject to counterparty risk. If the counterparty fails to meet its obligations, the Funds (or the Underlying ETFs) may lose money.

Tax Risk (HFGM ETF, HFMF ETF, and HFND ETF Only). The federal income tax treatment of the Funds' income from the Subsidiary may be negatively affected by future legislation, Treasury Regulations (proposed or final), and/or other Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") guidance or authorities that could affect the character, timing of recognition, and/or amount of the Funds' investment company taxable income and/or net capital gains and, therefore, the distributions they make. If the applicable Funds failed the source of income test for any taxable year but were eligible to and did cure the failure, they could incur potentially significant additional federal income tax expenses. If, on the other hand, the applicable Funds failed to qualify as RICs for any taxable year and were ineligible to or otherwise did not cure the failure, they would be subject to federal income tax at the fund-level on their taxable income at the regular corporate tax rate (without reduction for distributions to shareholders), with the consequence that their income available for distribution to shareholders would be reduced and distributions from their current or accumulated earnings and profits would generally be taxable to their shareholders as dividend income.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2026

Underlying ETFs Risks. The Funds will incur higher and duplicative expenses because they invest in Underlying ETFs. There is also the risk that the Funds may suffer losses due to the investment practices of the Underlying ETFs. The Funds will be subject to substantially the same risks as those associated with the direct ownership of securities held by the Underlying ETFs. Additionally, Underlying ETFs are also subject to the "ETF Risks" described above.

Volatility Risk (HFEQ ETF, HFGM ETF, and HFMF ETF Only). Each Fund seeks to achieve a higher level of volatility than its target hedge fund industry sector, which may result in substantial price fluctuations over short periods. As a result, the value of a Fund's investments may rise or fall significantly, and investors should be prepared for increased levels of volatility compared to traditional equity funds. While each Fund aims to manage this volatility, there is no guarantee that it will achieve its desired volatility level, and market conditions may cause even greater fluctuations in such Fund's performance. The use of derivatives such as futures contracts and swaps introduces additional risks, which may amplify the effects of volatility and lead to significant losses.

NOTE 4 - COMMITMENTS AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Adviser serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to an investment advisory agreement between the Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of the Funds (the "Advisory Agreement"), and, pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, provides investment advice to the Funds and oversees the day-to -day operations of the Funds, subject to the direction and oversight of the Board. The Adviser is also responsible for trading portfolio securities for the Funds, including selecting broker-dealers to execute purchase and sale transactions. The Adviser provides oversight of the Sub-Adviser and review of the Sub-Adviser's performance. The Adviser also serves as investment adviser to the Subsidiaries pursuant to advisory agreements between the Adviser and the Subsidiaries (the "Subsidiary Advisory Agreements"). The Adviser does not receive any compensation for services rendered by the Adviser as investment adviser to the Subsidiaries and is not entitled to any compensation under the Subsidiary Advisory Agreements.

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, each Fund pays the Adviser a unitary management fee (the "Investment Advisory Fee") based on the average daily net assets of each Fund as follows:

Fund Investment Advisory Fee
HFEQ ETF 0.95%
HFGM ETF 0.95%
HFMF ETF 0.95%

The Sub-Adviser serves as investment sub-adviser to the Funds, pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement between the Adviser and the Sub- Adviser with respect to the Funds (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement"). Pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Sub-Adviser is responsible for the day-to-day management of each Fund's portfolio, including determining the securities purchased and sold by the Funds, subject to the supervision of the Adviser and the Board. The Sub-Adviser is paid a fee by the Adviser, which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.02% of each Fund's average daily net assets (the "Sub-Advisory Fee"). The Sub-Adviser has agreed to assume all or a portion of the Adviser's obligation to pay all expenses incurred by the Funds, except for the Sub-Advisory Fee payable to the Sub-Adviser and Excluded Expenses. For assuming the payment obligation for all or a portion of each Fund's expenses, the Adviser has agreed to pay to the Sub-Adviser a corresponding share of the profits, if any, generated by the Funds' Investment Advisory Fees, less a contractual fee retained by the Adviser. Expenses incurred by the Funds and paid by the Sub-Adviser include fees charged by Tidal (defined below), which is an affiliate of the Adviser.

Tidal ETF Services LLC ("Tidal"), a Tidal Financial Group company and an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as the Funds' administrator and, in that capacity, performs various administrative and management services for the Funds. Tidal coordinates the payment of Fund-related expenses and manages the Trust's relationships with its various service providers. As compensation for the services it provides, Tidal receives a fee based on each Fund's average daily net assets, subject to a minimum annual fee. Tidal also is entitled to certain out-of-pocket expenses for the services mentioned above.

U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, doing business as U.S. Bank Global Fund Services ("Fund Services"), serves as the Funds' fund accountant and transfer agent. In those capacities, Fund Services performs various accounting and transfer agency services for the Funds. U.S. Bank N.A. (the "Custodian"), an affiliate of Fund Services, serves as the Funds' custodian.

Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the "Distributor") acts as the Funds' principal underwriter in a continuous public offering of each Fund's Shares.

Certain officers and a trustee of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser. Neither the affiliated trustee nor the Trust's officers receive compensation from the Funds.

NOTE 5 - SEGMENT REPORTING

In accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023 -07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"), each Fund has evaluated its business activities and determined that they each operate as a single reportable segment.

Each Fund's investment activities are managed by the Principal Financial Officer, which serves as the Chief Operating Decision Maker. The Principal Financial Officer is responsible for assessing each Fund's financial performance and allocating resources. In making these assessments, the Principal Financial Officer evaluates each Fund's financial results on an aggregated basis, rather than by separate segments. As such, the Funds do not allocate operating expenses or assets to multiple segments, and accordingly, no additional segment disclosures are required. There were no intra-entity sales or transfers during the reporting period for the HFEQ ETF.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2026

The Funds primarily generate income through dividends, interest, and realized/unrealized gains on their investment portfolios. Expenses incurred, including management fees, Fund operating expenses, and transaction costs, are considered general Fund-level expenses and are not allocated to specific segments or business lines.

Management has determined that the Funds do not meet the criteria for disaggregated segment reporting under ASU 2023-07 and will continue to evaluate its reporting requirements in accordance with applicable accounting standards.

NOTE 8 - SHARE TRANSACTIONS

Shares of the Funds are listed and traded on the Exchange. Market prices for the Shares may be different from their NAV. The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV, generally in large blocks of Shares, called Creation Units. Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally in-kind for securities included in a specified universe. Once created, Shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, Shares are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Creation Units may only be purchased or redeemed by Authorized Participants. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a Depository Trust Company participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem the Shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors may purchase Shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.

Each Fund currently offers one class of Shares, which have no front-end sales load, no deferred sales charge, and no redemption fee. A fixed transaction fee is imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase or sale of Creation Units. The standard fixed transaction fee is $500 for the HFEQ ETF and HFGM ETF and $300 for the HFMF ETF and HFND ETF, payable to the Custodian. The fixed transaction fee may be waived on certain orders if the Funds' Custodian has determined to waive some or all of the costs associated with the order or another party, such as the Adviser, has agreed to pay such fee. In addition, a variable fee may be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation Units and Redemption Units of up to a maximum of 2% of the value of the Creation Units and Redemption Units subject to the transaction. Variable fees are imposed to compensate the Funds for transaction costs associated with the cash transactions. Variable fees received by the Funds, if any, are disclosed in the capital shares transactions section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The Funds may issue an unlimited number of Shares of beneficial interest, with no par value. All Shares of the Funds have equal rights and privileges.

NOTE 9 - RECENT MARKET EVENTS

U.S. and international markets have experienced and may continue to experience significant periods of volatility in recent years and months due to a number of economic, political and global macro factors including uncertainty regarding inflation and central banks' interest rate changes, the possibility of a national or global recession, trade tensions and tariffs, political events, armed conflict, war, and geopolitical conflict. These developments, as well as other events, could result in further market volatility and negatively affect financial asset prices, the liquidity of certain securities and the normal operations of securities exchanges and other markets, despite government efforts to address market disruptions. As a result, the risk environment remains elevated.

NOTE 10 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"), which enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Funds have adopted ASU 2023-09, which did not have a material impact on the Funds' financial statements or disclosures.

NOTE 11 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In preparing these financial statements, management has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued. Management has determined that there are no subsequent events that would need to be recognized or disclosed in the Funds' financial statements.

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 August 31, 2026, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. 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 auditor of one or more Tidal Investments LLC investment companies since 2020.
