Dear Investor:

 

The Eagle MLP Strategy Fund (“Fund”) is an open-end mutual fund that invests in a portfolio of Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”) and MLP-related securities that provide exposure to the underlying price and income characteristics of predominately midstream energy infrastructure assets in an attempt to generate attractive, long-term, risk-adjusted returns. The Fund’s Co-Adviser, Eagle Global Advisors, LLC, draws upon years of experience in selecting and investing in MLPs and MLP-related securities. The Fund’s investments attempt to capture the income and market characteristics of MLPs and MLP-related securities while not participating in the tax complexities that can reduce the attractiveness of investing in this asset class, including K-1s, state and local tax filings and Unrelated Business Taxable Income (“UBTI”). As of April 30, 2023, the Fund had approximately $91 million of assets under management.

 

Fund Performance

 

During the Fund’s fiscal year, May 1, 2022 through April 30, 2023 (the “Investment Period”), the Fund’s Class I Shares returned 12.30%, Class N Shares returned 12.52%, Class A Shares returned 12.01% and Class C returned 11.23%. The Co-Advisers believe this performance was competitive with similar funds and appropriate benchmarks.

The Investment Period saw significant macroeconomic and geopolitical events. With respect to midstream energy infrastructure, the most obvious driver the Fund’s 2022 performance during the Investment Period was the impact of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Two things happened, the first was the world was suddenly aware of how important traditional energy is to the global economy and the second was the invasion accelerated what was already rising inflation. Major beneficiaries were stocks that had idiosyncratic exposure to the Russian-instigated energy crisis, as well as those with sensitivity to energy price volatility. Another major positive theme was Midstream companies being bought out by their sponsors at material premiums.

 

Another key macroeconomic theme during the Investment Period was inflation and Central Banks around the world trying to get it under control. In the United States (“US”), this fight meant raising interest rates from an Upper Bound of 0.25% at the beginning of 2022 to 5.00% as of April 30, 2023. While inflation (as measured year-over-year by the Consumer Price Index) has put in a peak (for now) at just over 9% in June 2022, the path back down to the US Federal Reserve target of 2.00% may prove long and winding. Interest rates are less of a problem for a midstream energy asset class which now has increasing cash flows and minimal capital needs. Capital expenditures are far less than they were during the height of the fracking revolution, with free cash flow after dividends and capital expenditures meaningfully positive for most Midstream companies. The question is more about refinancing existing debt and/or managing floating rate debt and less about financing growth. We see refinancing risk as modest and manageable for most midstream companies. While floating rate risk is a headwind for a few companies, it’s not necessarily a sector-wide issue since dividend coverage ratios are nearly 2.0x across the Midstream sector.

 

The market is continuing to gain confidence in Midstream energy companies’ ability to generate large amounts of free cash flow. This free cash flow provides visibility on de-leveraging and share buybacks, and that is attracting generalist interest. It goes beyond this though. We believe management teams are more disciplined, and there is less fear that a company will make an ill-advised acquisition or pursue an unnecessary growth project.

Outlook

 

We believe there simply aren’t many sectors that own the critical infrastructure the US needs to keep the economy rolling, while at the same time delivering so many shareholder friendly catalysts and at a compelling valuation. Midstream seems to fit that bill today and into the future, and we believe the more people underestimate the sector’s importance the more likely Midstream will continue to outperform. If the last several years have taught us anything it’s to not take anything for granted. We remain optimistic about the long-term investment opportunity for MLPs. We believe there is significant long-term value in the asset class in terms of distribution yield, distribution growth and total return. The asset class has evolved and we believe Midstream companies have continued taking the necessary steps to strengthen their companies by making business model improvements, such as reducing debt, increasing distribution coverage, and internally funding growth, among others.

Eagle MLP Strategy Fund
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 30, 2023

 

1.ORGANIZATION

 

The Eagle MLP Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) is a non-diversified series of shares of beneficial interest of Northern Lights Fund Trust (the “Trust”), a statutory trust organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on January 19, 2005, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek total return from income and capital appreciation.

 

The Fund currently offers Class A, Class C, Class I and Class N shares. Class C, Class I and Class N shares are offered at (“NAV”). Class A shares are offered at NAV plus a maximum sales charge of 5.75%, depending on how much you invest, which may be waived by the co-advisers under certain circumstances. Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the Fund and classes are identical except for differences in their sales charge structures and ongoing service and distribution charges. All classes of shares have equal voting privileges except that each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its service and/or distribution plans. The Fund’s income, expenses (other than class specific distribution fees) and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated proportionately each day based upon the relative net assets of each class.

 

2.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies set by the Trust and followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements 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 income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The 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” including FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-08.

 

Securities Valuation – Securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last reported sale price at the close of the regular trading session of the primary exchange on the business day the value is being determined, or in the case of securities listed on NASDAQ at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). In the absence of a sale, such securities shall be valued at the mean between the current bid and ask prices on the primary exchange on the day of valuation. Debt securities (other than short-term obligations) are valued each day by an independent pricing service approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) based on methods which include consideration of: yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type, indications as to values from dealers, and general market conditions or market quotations from a major market maker in the securities. Investments valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. The independent pricing service does not distinguish between smaller-sized bond positions known as “odd lots” and larger institutional -sized bond positions known as “round lots”. The Fund may fair value a particular bond if a co-adviser does not believe that

17

 

Eagle MLP Strategy Fund
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
April 30, 2023

 

the round lot value provided by the independent pricing service reflects fair value of the Fund’s holding. Short-term debt obligations having 60 days or less remaining until maturity, at time of purchase, may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at NAV.

 

The Fund may hold securities, such as private investments, interests in commodity pools, other non-traded securities or temporarily illiquid securities, for which market quotations are not readily available or are determined to be unreliable. These securities will be valued using the “fair value” procedures approved by the Board. The Board has delegated execution of these procedures to the Adviser as its valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”). The Board may also enlist third party consultants such as a valuation specialist at a public accounting firm, valuation consultant or financial officer of a security issuer on an as-needed basis to assist the Valuation Designee in determining a security-specific fair value. The Board is responsible for reviewing and approving fair value methodologies utilized by the Valuation Designee, which approval shall be based upon whether the Valuation Designee followed the valuation procedures established by the Board.

 

Exchange Traded Notes – The Fund may invest in exchange traded notes (“ETNs”). ETNs are a type of debt security that is linked to the performance of underlying securities. The risks of owning ETNs generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities they are designed to track. In addition, ETNs are subject to credit risk generally to the same extent as debt securities.

 

Fair Valuation Process – The applicable investments are valued by the Valuation Designee pursuant to valuation procedures established by the Board. For example, fair value determinations are required for the following securities: (i) securities for which market quotations are insufficient or not readily available on a particular business day (including securities for which there is a short and temporary lapse in the provision of a price by the regular pricing source); (ii) securities for which, in the judgment of the Valuation Designee, the prices or values available do not represent the fair value of the instrument; factors which may cause the Valuation Designee to make such a judgment include, but are not limited to, the following: only a bid price or an ask price is available; the spread between bid and ask prices is substantial; the frequency of sales; the thinness of the market; the size of reported trades; and actions of the securities markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading; (iii) securities determined to be illiquid; and (iv) securities with respect to which an event that affects the value thereof has occurred (a “significant event”) since the closing prices were established on the principal exchange on which they are traded, but prior to a Fund’s calculation of its NAV. Specifically, interests in commodity pools or managed futures pools are valued on a daily basis by reference to the closing market prices of each futures contract or other asset held by a pool, as adjusted for pool expenses. Restricted or illiquid securities, such as private investments or non-traded securities are valued based upon the current bid for the security from two or more independent dealers or other parties reasonably familiar with the facts and circumstances of the security (who should take into consideration all relevant factors as may be appropriate under the circumstances). If a current bid from such independent dealers or other independent parties is unavailable, the Valuation Designee shall determine the fair value of such security using the following factors: (i) the type of security; (ii) the cost at date of purchase; (iii) the size and nature of the Fund’s holdings; (iv) the discount from market

18

 

Eagle MLP Strategy Fund
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
April 30, 2023

 

value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase and subsequent thereto; (v) information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security; (vi) the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security and the existence of any registration rights; (vii) how the yield of the security compares to similar securities of companies of similar or equal creditworthiness; (viii) the level of recent trades of similar or comparable securities; (ix) the liquidity characteristics of the security; (x) current market conditions; and (xi) the market value of any securities into which the security is convertible or exchangeable.

 

The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of all of its investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and 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 in 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 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.

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. Please refer to the Fund’s prospectus for a full listing of risks associated with these investments. The following tables summarize the inputs used as of April 30, 2023 for the Fund’s assets measured at fair value:

Security Transactions and Related Income – Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized on securities purchased over the lives of the respective securities. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains or losses from sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.

 

Master Limited Partnerships – The Fund invests in Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”) which are publicly traded partnerships engaged in, among other things, the transportation, storage and processing of minerals and natural resources, and are treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes. By confining their operations to these specific activities, their interests, or units, are able to trade on public securities exchanges exactly like the shares of a corporation, without entity level taxation. Of the roughly ninety MLPs in existence, fifty are eligible for inclusion in the Alerian MLP Index, approximately two-thirds trade on the NYSE and the rest trade on the NASDAQ. To qualify as a MLP and to not be taxed as a corporation, a partnership must receive at least 90% of its income from qualifying sources as set forth in Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). These qualifying sources include natural resource based activities such as the processing, transportation and storage of mineral or natural resources. MLPs generally have two classes of owners, the general partner and limited partners. The general partner of an MLP is typically owned by a major energy company, an investment fund, the direct management of the MLP, or is an entity owned by one or more of such parties. The general partner may be structured as a private or publicly traded corporation or other entity. The general partner typically controls the operations and management of the MLP through an up to 2% equity interest in the MLP plus, in many cases, ownership of common units and subordinated units. Limited partners typically own the remainder of the partnership, through ownership of common units, and have a limited role in the partnership’s operations and management.

 

MLPs are typically structured such that common units and general partner interests have first priority to receive quarterly cash distributions up to an established minimum amount (“minimum quarterly distribution” or “MQD”). Common and general partner interests also accrue arrearages in distributions to the extent MQD is not paid. Once common and general partner interests have been paid, subordinated units receive distributions of up to MQD; however, subordinated units do not accrue arrearages. Distributable cash in excess of MQD is paid to both common and subordinated units and is distributed to both common and subordinated units generally on a pro rata basis. The general partner is also eligible to receive incentive distributions if the general partner operates the business in a manner which results in distributions paid per common unit surpassing specified target levels. As the general partner increases cash distributions to the limited partners, the general partner receives an increasingly higher percentage of the incremental cash distributions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
April 30, 2023

 

Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses – Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

 

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders – Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid quarterly. Distributable net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and distributed annually. Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are considered either temporary (e.g., deferred losses) or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

 

Expenses – Expenses of the Trust that are directly identifiable to a specific fund are charged to that fund. Expenses, which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund, are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable (as determined by the Board), taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative sizes of the funds in the Trust.

 

Credit Facility – Effective August 2, 2021, the Fund entered into a revolving, uncommitted $120,000,000 line of credit with U.S. Bank National Association (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) which expired on July 31, 2022. Effective August 1, 2022, the Fund entered into an amended and restated agreement, dated August 1, 2022, with a $170,000,000 line credit with U.S. Bank National Association (the “Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement”). Borrowings under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement bear interest at Prime Rate minus 1% per month. There are no fees charged on the unused portion of the line of credit. For the year ended April 30, 2022 through April 30, 2023, amounts outstanding to the Fund under the credit facility at no time were permitted to exceed $170,000,000.

 

For the year ended April 30, 2023, the interest expense was $2,724 for the Fund. There was an outstanding balance of $358,000, with an effective rate of 7.00%, as of April 30, 2023. The average borrowings for the Fund for the period the line was drawn, May 1, 2022 through April 30, 2023, was $372,400 at an average borrowing rate of 4.64%. For the year ended April 30, 2023, the maximum borrowing was $2,164,000 at a maximum interest rate of 7.00%.

 

Federal Income Taxes – The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, 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 analyzed the Fund’s tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on tax returns filed for the open tax years 2020 – 2022, or expected to be taken in the Fund’s

21

2023 tax returns. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. federal, Ohio and foreign jurisdictions where the Fund makes significant investments; however, the Fund is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.

 

Indemnification – The Trust indemnifies its officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities appears to be remote.

 

3.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

For the year ended April 30, 2023, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities, other than short-term investments and U.S. government securities, amounted to $40,816,664 and $47,309,098 respectively.

 

4.INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

 

Princeton Fund Advisors, LLC and Eagle Global Advisors, LLC, serve as the Fund’s investment co-advisers (the “Co-Advisers”). Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement with the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, the Co-Advisers, under the oversight of the Board, direct the daily operations of the Fund and supervise the performance of administrative and professional services provided by others. As compensation for their services and the related expenses borne by the Co-Advisers, the Fund pays the Co-Advisers a management fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 1.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended April 30 2023, the Fund incurred advisory fees of $1,120,351.

 

Pursuant to a written contract (the “Waiver Agreement”), the Co-Advisers have agreed, at least until August 31, 2023, to waive a portion of their advisory fee and have agreed to reimburse the Fund for other expenses to the extent necessary so that the total expenses incurred by the Fund (excluding expenses such as any front-end or contingent deferred loads, brokerage fees and commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including for example option and swap fees and expenses), borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short), taxes, and extraordinary expenses such as litigation expenses (which may include indemnification of Fund officers and Trustees, contractual indemnification of Fund service providers (other than a Co-Adviser)) do not exceed 1.65% per annum of Class A average daily net assets, 2.40% per annum of Class C average daily net assets, 1.40% per annum of Class I average daily net assets and 1.26% per annum of Class N average daily net assets (the “Expense Limitation”). For the year ended April 30, 2023, the Co-Advisers waived expenses of $342,018 pursuant to the Waiver Agreement.

22

 

Eagle MLP Strategy Fund
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
April 30, 2023

 

If the Co-Advisers waive any fees or reimburse any expenses pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, and the Fund’s operating expenses attributable to Class A, Class C, Class I and Class N shares, respectively, are subsequently less than the Expense Limitation, the Co-Advisers shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Fund for such waived fees or reimbursed expenses provided that such reimbursement does not cause the Fund’s expenses to exceed the Expense Limitation and any expense limitation in effect at the time of recoupment. If the operating expenses attributable to the Class A, Class C, Class I and Class N shares subsequently exceed the Expense Limitation, the reimbursements shall be suspended. The Co-Advisers may seek reimbursement only for expenses waived or paid by it during the three years prior to such reimbursement; provided, however, that such expenses may only be reimbursed to the extent they were waived or paid after the effective date of the Waiver Agreement (or any similar agreement). The Board may terminate the Waiver Agreement at any time.

 

The following amounts are subject to recapture by the Co-Advisers by the following dates:

 

  April 30, 2024   April 30, 2025   April 30, 2026 
  $380,807   $315,411   $342,018 

 

Distributor – The Trust, with respect to the Fund, has adopted the Trust’s Master Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act for each of its Class A and Class C shares (the “Plans”). The Plans provide that a monthly service and/or distribution fee is calculated by the Fund at annual rates of 0.25% and 1.00% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares and Class C shares, respectively, and is paid to Northern Lights Distributors, LLC (“NLD” or the “Distributor”), to provide compensation for ongoing distribution-related activities or services and/or maintenance of the Fund’s shareholder accounts, not otherwise required to be provided by the Co -Advisers. Class I and Class N shares do not incur a 12b-1 fee. The Plans are compensation plans, which mean that compensation is provided regardless of 12b-1 expenses incurred. For the year ended April 30, 2023, the Fund paid $17,141 and $70,347 to the Distributor for Class A and Class C shares, respectively.

 

The Distributor acts as the Fund’s principal underwriter in a continuous public offering of the Fund’s shares. On sales of Class A shares, for the year ended April 30, 2023, the Distributor received $19,328 from front-end sales charge of which $2,788 was retained by the Distributor or other affiliated broker-dealers.

 

In addition, certain affiliates of the Distributor provide services to the Fund as follows:

 

Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“UFS”) UFS, an affiliate of the Distributor, provides administration, fund accounting, and transfer agent services to the Trust. Pursuant to separate servicing agreements with UFS, the Fund pays UFS customary fees for providing administration, fund accounting and transfer agency services to the Fund. Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of UFS, and are not paid any fees directly by the Trust for serving in such capacities.

Northern Lights Compliance Services, LLC (“NLCS”) NLCS, an affiliate of UFS and the Distributor, provides a Chief Compliance Officer to the Trust, as well as related compliance services, pursuant to a consulting agreement between NLCS and the Trust.

5.DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND TAX COMPONENTS OF CAPITAL

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the tax years ended October 31, 2022, and October 31, 2021 was as follows:

 

   Tax Year Ended   Fiscal Year Ended 
   October 31, 2022   October 31, 2021 
Ordinary Income  $2,022,344   $4,605,335 
Long-Term Capital Gain        
Return of Capital   3,076,809     
   $5,099,153   $4,605,335 

 

The components of accumulated earnings/(deficit) on a tax basis as of October 31, 2022, adjusted for activity through fiscal year end April 30, 2023, were as follows:

 

Undistributed   Undistributed   Post October Loss   Capital Loss   Other   Unrealized   Total 
Ordinary   Long-Term   and   Carry   Book/Tax   Appreciation/   Distributable Earnings/ 
Income   Gains   Late Year Loss   Forwards   Differences   (Depreciation)   (Accumulated Deficit) 
$12,847,486   $   $   $(437,965,960)  $   $13,998,197   $(411,120,277)

 

The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation, accumulated net realized losses from security transactions and undistributed net investment income is primarily attributable to tax adjustments for partnerships and the tax deferral of losses on wash sales. The unrealized appreciation in the table above includes unrealized foreign currency losses of $(3,240).

 

At the Fund’s tax year end of October 31, 2022, the Fund had capital loss carry forwards for federal income tax purposes available to offset future capital gains, along with capital loss carry forwards utilized as follows:

 

Short-Term   Long-Term   Total   CLCF Utilized 
$69,751,988   $371,912,230   $441,664,218   $11,454,744 

 

Permanent book and tax differences, primarily attributable to tax adjustments for distributions in excess, resulted in reclassifications for the Fund for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023, as follows:

 

Paid     
In   Accumulated 
Capital   Deficit 
$(3,076,809)  $3,076,809

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Trustees of Northern Lights Fund Trust

and the Shareholders of Eagle MLP Strategy Fund

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eagle MLP Strategy Fund (the Fund), including the schedule of investments, as of April 30, 2023, 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 to the financial statements (collectively, the financial statements), and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of April 30, 2023, 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 five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s 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 Fund in accordance with 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. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its 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 Fund’s 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, 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 April 30, 2023, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. 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.

Eagle MLP Strategy Fund
EXPENSE EXAMPLES (Unaudited)
April 30, 2023

 

As a shareholder of the Eagle MLP Strategy Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases of Class A shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

 

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2022 through April 30, 2023.

 

Actual Expenses

 

The “Actual” lines in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

 

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

 

The “Hypothetical” lines in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balances or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), or redemption fees. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Class N  $1,000.00  $1,018.55  $6.31  1.26%

 

*Actual expenses are equal to the average account value over the period, multiplied by the Fund’s annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the number of days in the period (181) divided by the number of days in the fiscal year (365). “Hypothetical” expense information is presented on the basis of the full one-half year period to enable a comparison to other funds. It is based on assuming the same net expense ratio and average account value over the period but is multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the full half-year period).

EX-99.CODE ETH 4 coe.htm Blu Giant, LLC


Northern Lights Fund Trust and the Northern Lights Variable Trust

 CODE OF ETHICS

February 19, 2007



Northern Lights Fund Trust and the Northern Lights Variable Trust (the “Trusts”) and each of its series (the “Funds”) has adopted this Code of Ethics (the “Code”) in order to set forth guidelines and procedures that promote ethical practices and conduct by all of its Access Persons and to ensure that all Access Persons comply with the federal securities laws.  Although this Code contains a number of specific standards and policies, there are four key principles embodied throughout the Code.


THE INTERESTS OF THE FUNDS MUST ALWAYS BE PARAMOUNT


Access Persons have a legal, fiduciary duty to place the interests of the Funds ahead of their own.  In any decision relating to their personal investments, Access Persons must scrupulously avoid serving their own interests ahead of those of Trusts.


Access Persons may not take advantage of their relationship with the Funds


Access Persons should avoid any situation (unusual investment opportunities, perquisites and accepting gifts of more than token value from persons seeking to do business with the Funds) that might compromise, or call into question, the exercise of their fully independent judgment in the interests of the Funds.


All Personal Securities Transactions should avoid any actual, potential, or apparent conflicts of interest


Although all Personal Securities Transactions by Access Persons must be conducted in a manner consistent with this Code, the Code itself is based on the premise that Access Persons owe a fiduciary duty to the Funds, and should avoid any activity that creates an actual, potential, or apparent conflict of interest. This includes executing transactions through or for the benefit of a third party when the transaction is not in keeping with the general principles of this Code.


Access Persons must adhere to these general principles as well as comply with the specific provisions of this Code. Technical compliance with the Code and its procedures will not automatically prevent scrutiny of trades that show a pattern of abuse of an individual’s fiduciary duty to the Funds.


Access Persons must comply with all applicable laws

In both work-related and personal activities, Access Persons must comply with all applicable laws, including the federal securities laws.


Any violations of this Code should be reported promptly to the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee.  Failure to do so will be deemed a violation of the Code.

DEFINITIONS


“Access Person” shall have the same meaning as set forth in Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) and shall include:

1.

all officers and trustees (or persons occupying a similar status or performing a similar function) of the Funds;

2.

all officers and trustees (or persons occupying a similar status or performing a similar function) of the Advisers with respect to its corresponding series of the Trusts

3.

any employee of the Trusts or the Advisers (or of any company controlling or controlled by or under common control with the Trusts or the Advisers) who, in connection with his or her regular functions or duties, makes, participates in, or obtains information regarding the purchase or sale of Covered Securities by the Funds, or whose functions relate to the making of any recommendations with respect to the purchase or sale; and

4.

any other natural person controlling, controlled by or  under common control with the Trusts or the Advisers who obtains information concerning recommendations made to the Funds with regard to the purchase or sale of Covered Securities by the Funds.


“Beneficial Ownership” means in general and subject to the specific provisions of Rule 16a-1(a)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, having or sharing, directly or indirectly, through any contract arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise, a direct or indirect “pecuniary interest” in the security.


“Chief Compliance Officer” means the Code of Ethics Compliance Officer of the Trusts with respect to Trustees and officers of the Trusts, or the CCO of the Advisers with respect to Advisers personnel.


“Code” means this Code of Ethics.


“Covered Security” means any Security, except (i) direct obligations of the U.S. Government, (ii) bankers’ acceptances, bank certificates of deposit, commercial paper and high quality short-term debt instruments, including repurchase agreements, and (iii) shares issued by open-end mutual Funds.


Decision Making Access Person” means any Access Person who, in connection with his or her regular functions or duties, makes, participates in, or obtains information regarding the purchase or sale of a security by the Funds, or whose functions relate to the making of any recommendations with respect to such purchases or sales. Decision Makers typically are Advisers personnel.


“Funds” means series of the Trusts.


“Immediate family” means an individual’s spouse, child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, siblings, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law and should include adoptive relationships.  For purposes of determining whether an Access Person has an “indirect pecuniary interest” in securities, only ownership by “immediate family” members sharing the same household as the Access Person will be presumed to be an “indirect pecuniary interest” of the Access Person, absent special circumstances.


“Independent Trustees” means those Trustees of the Trusts that would not be deemed an “interested person” of the Trusts, as defined in Section 2(a)(19)(A) of the 1940 Act.


“Indirect Pecuniary Interest” includes, but is not limited to: (a) securities held by members of the person’s Immediate Family sharing the same household (which ownership interest may be rebutted); (b) a general partner’s proportionate interest in Fund securities held by a general or limited partnership; (c) a person’s right to dividends that is separated or separable from the underlying securities (otherwise, a right to dividends alone will not constitute a pecuniary interest in securities); (d) a person’s interest in securities held by a Trusts; (e) a person’s right to acquire securities through the exercise or conversion of any derivative security, whether or not presently exercisable; and (f) a performance-related fee, other than an asset based fee, received by any broker, dealer, bank, insurance company, investment company, investment manager, Trustee, or person or entity performing a similar function, with certain exceptions.


“Pecuniary Interest” means the opportunity, directly or indirectly, to profit or share in any profit derived from a transaction in securities.


“Personal Securities Transaction” means any transaction in a Covered Security in which an Access Person has a direct or indirect Pecuniary Interest.


“Purchase or Sale of a Security” includes the writing of an option to purchase or sell a Security. A Security shall be deemed “being considered for Purchase or Sale” for the Trusts when a recommendation to purchase or sell has been made and communicated by a Decision Making Access Person, and, with respect to the person making the recommendation, when such person seriously considers making such a recommendation.  These recommendations are placed on the “Restricted List” until they are no longer being considered for Purchase or Sale, or until the Security has been purchased or sold.


“Restricted List” means the list of securities maintained by the Chief Compliance Officer in which trading by Access Persons is generally prohibited.


“Security” means any note, stock, treasury stock, bond, debenture, evidence of indebtedness, certificate of interest or participation in any profit-sharing agreement, collateral-Trusts certificate, pre-organization certificate or subscription, transferable share, investment contract, voting-Trusts certificate, certificate of deposit for a security, fractional undivided interest in oil, gas, or other mineral rights, or, in general, an interest or instrument commonly know as “security”, or any certificate or interest or participation in temporary or interim certificate for, receipt for, guarantee of, or warrant or right to subscribe to or purchase (including options) any of the foregoing.


“Advisers” means the Advisers to the Trusts.


“Trusts” mean Northern Lights Fund Trust and the Northern Lights Variable Trust.





PROHIBITED ACTIONS AND ACTIVITIES


A.

No Access Person shall purchase or sell directly or indirectly, any Covered Security in which he or she has, or by reason of such transaction acquires, any direct or indirect beneficial ownership and which he or she knows or should have known at the time of such purchase or sale;


(1)

is being considered for purchase or sale by a Fund, or


(2)

is being purchased or sold by a Fund.


B.

Decision-Making Access Persons may not participate in any initial public offering of Covered Securities in any account over which they exercise Beneficial Ownership.  All other Access Persons must obtain prior written authorization from the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee prior to such participation;


C.

No Access Person may purchase a Covered Security in which by reason of such transaction they acquire Beneficial Ownership in a private placement of a Security, without prior written authorization of the acquisition by the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee;


D.

Access Persons may not accept any fee, commission, gift, or services, other than de minimus gifts, from any single person or entity that does business with or on behalf of the Trusts;


E.

Decision-Making Access Persons may not serve on the board of directors of a publicly traded company without prior authorization from the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee based upon a determination that such service would be consistent with the interests of the Trusts.  If such service is authorized, procedures will then be put in place to isolate such Decision-Making Access Persons serving as directors of outside entities from those making investment decisions on behalf of the Trusts.


Advanced notice should be given so that the Trusts or Advisers may take such action concerning the conflict as deemed appropriate by the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee.


F.

Decision-Making Access Person may not execute a Personal Securities Transaction involving a Covered Security without authorization of the Chief Compliance Officer or such persons who may be designated by the Chief Compliance Officer from time to time.


G.

It shall be a violation of this Code for any Access Person, in connection with the purchase or sale, directly or indirectly, of any Covered Security held or to be acquired by a Fund:

a.

to employ any device, scheme or artifice to defraud the Trusts;

b.

to make to the Trusts any untrue statement of a material fact or to omit to state to the Trusts a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading;

c.

to engage in any act, practice or course of business that operates or would operate as a fraud or deceit upon the Trusts; or

d.

to engage in any manipulative practice with respect to the Trusts.



EXEMPTED TRANSACTIONS


The provisions described above under the heading Prohibited Actions and Activities and the preclearance procedures under the heading Preclearance of Personal Securities Transactions do not apply to:


·

Purchases or Sales of Securities effected in any account in which an Access Person has no Beneficial Ownership;


·

Purchases or Sales of Securities which are non-volitional on the part the Access Person (for example, the receipt of stock dividends);


·

Purchase of Securities made as part of automatic dividend reinvestment plans;


·

Purchases of Securities made as part of an employee benefit plan involving the periodic purchase or company stock or mutual Funds; and


·

Purchases of Securities effected upon the exercise of rights issued by an issuer pro rata to all holders of a class of its Securities, to the extent such rights were acquired from such issuer, and sale of such rights so acquired.



PRECLEARANCE OF PERSONAL SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS


All Decision-Making Access Persons wishing to engage in a Personal Securities Transaction must obtain prior authorization of any such Personal Securities Transaction from the Chief Compliance Officer or such person or persons that the Chief Compliance Officer may from time to time designate to make such authorizations. Personal Securities Transactions by the Chief Compliance Officer shall require prior authorization from the President or Chief Executive Officer of the Trusts (unless such person is also the Chief Compliance Officer), who shall perform the review and approval functions relating to reports and trading by the Chief Compliance Officer. The Trusts shall adopt the appropriate forms and procedures for implementing this Code of Ethics.


Any authorization so provided is effective until the close of business on the fifth trading day after the authorization is granted. In the event that an order for the Personal Securities Transaction is not placed within that time period, a new authorization must be obtained. If the order for the transaction is placed but not executed within that time period, no new authorization is required unless the person placing the order originally amends the order in any manner.  Authorization for “good until canceled” orders is effective unless the order conflicts with a Trusts order.


If a person wishing to effect a Personal Securities Transaction learns, while the order is pending, that the same Security is being considered for Purchase or Sale by a Fund, such person shall cancel the trade.



REPORTING AND MONITORING


The Chief Compliance Officer or such person or persons that the Chief Compliance Officer may from time to time designate shall monitor all personal trading activity of all Access Persons pursuant to the procedures established under this Code.

Disclosure of Personal Brokerage Accounts


Within ten days of the commencement of employment or at the commencement of a relationship with the Trusts, all Access Persons, except Independent Trustees, are required to submit to the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee a report stating the names and account numbers of all of their personal brokerage accounts, brokerage accounts of members of their Immediate Family, and any brokerage accounts which they control or in which they or an Immediate Family member has Beneficial Ownership.  Such report must contain the date on which it is submitted and the information in the report must be current as of a date no more than 45 days prior to that date.  In addition, if a new brokerage account is opened during the course of the year, the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee must be notified immediately.  


The information required by the above paragraph must be provided to the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee on an annual basis, and the report of such should be submitted with the annual holdings reports described below.


Each of these accounts is required to furnish duplicate confirmations and statements to the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee. These statements and confirms for each series of the Trusts may be sent to the Advisers.


INITIAL HOLDINGS REPORT

Within ten days of becoming an Access Person (and with information that is current as of a date no more than 45 days prior to the date that the report was submitted), each Access Person, except Independent Trustees must submit a holdings report that must contain, at a minimum, the title and type of Security, and as applicable, the exchange ticker symbol or CUSIP number, number of shares, and principal amount of each Covered Security in which the Access Person has any direct or indirect Beneficial Ownership.  This report must state the date on which it is submitted.


ANNUAL HOLDINGS REPORTS


All Access Persons, except Independent Trustees, must supply the information that is required in the initial holdings report on an annual basis, and such information must be current as of a date no more than 45 days prior to the date that the report was submitted.  Such reports must state the date on which they are submitted.


QUARTERLY TRANSACTION REPORTS


All Access Persons shall report to the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee the following information with respect to transactions in a Covered Security in which such person has, or by reason of such transaction acquires, any direct or indirect Beneficial Ownership in the Covered Security:


·

The date of the transaction, the title, and as applicable the exchange ticker symbol or CUSIP number, interest rate and maturity date, number of shares, and the principal amount of each Covered Security;

·

The nature of the transaction (i.e., purchase, sale or any other type of acquisition or disposition);

·

The price of the Covered Security at which the transaction was effected; and

·

The name of the broker, dealer, or bank with or through whom the transaction was effected.

·

The date the Access Person Submits the Report.


Reports pursuant to this section of this Code shall be made no later than 30 days after the end of the calendar quarter in which the transaction to which the report relates was effected, and shall include a certification that the reporting person has reported all Personal Securities Transactions required to be disclosed or reported pursuant to the requirements of this Code. Confirmations and Brokerage Statements sent directly to each Adviser’s address noted above is an acceptable form of a quarterly transaction report.


An Independent Trustee need only make a quarterly transaction report if he or she, at the time of the transaction, knew, or in the ordinary course of fulfilling his or her official duties as a Trustee, should have known that during the 15-day period immediately preceding or following the date of the transaction by the Independent Trustee, the Covered Security was purchased or sold by a Fund or was considered for purchase or sale by a Fund.



ENFORCEMENTS AND PENALTIES


The Chief Compliance Officer or his designee shall review the transaction information supplied by Access Persons.  If a transaction appears to be a violation of this Code, the transaction will be reported to the Trusts Board of Trustees.


Upon being informed of a violation of this Code, the Trusts Board of Trustees may impose sanctions as it deems appropriate, including but not limited to, a letter of censure or suspension, termination of the employment of the violator, or a request for disgorgement of any profits received from a securities transaction effected in violation of this Code.  The Trusts shall impose sanctions in accordance with the principle that no Access Person may profit at the expense of its clients. Any losses are the responsibility of the violator. Any profits realized on personal securities transactions in violation of the Code must be disgorged in a manner directed by the Board of Trustees.


Annually, the Chief Compliance Officer at each regular meeting of the Board shall issue a report on Personal Securities Transactions by Access Person. The report submitted to the board shall:


·

Summarize existing procedures concerning Personal Securities investing and any changes in the procedures made during the prior year;

·

Identify any violations of this Code and any significant remedial action taken during the prior year; and;

·

Identify any recommended changes in existing restrictions or procedures based upon the experience under the Code, evolving industry practices or developments in applicable laws and regulations.
