NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MAY 31, 2020 (UNAUDITED)



NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION


The Footprints Discover Value Fund (the "Fund") is a non-diversified series of the MSS Series Trust (the "Trust") and commenced operations on December 26, 2017.  The Trust is an open-end investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), established under the laws of Ohio by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated June 20, 2006 (the "Trust Agreement").  The Trust Agreement permits the Board of Trustees (the "Board" or "Trustees") to authorize and issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest of separate series without par value.  There are currently seven separate series offered by the Trust. The investment adviser to the Fund is Footprints Asset Management & Research, Inc. (the "Advisor").


The Fund seeks total return from capital appreciation and income.


NON-DIVERSIFICATION RISK: As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest more than 5% of its total assets in the securities of one or more issuers.  The Fund's performance may be more sensitive to any single economic, business, political or regulatory occurrence than the value of shares of a diversified investment company.  The Fund's performance may be affected disproportionately by the performance of relatively few stocks.  In addition, the volatility of the Fund may be greater than the overall volatility of the market.


NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 "Financial Services – Investment Companies including FASB Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2013-08."


SECURITY VALUATION: All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in Note 3.


SHARE VALUATION:  The Fund’s NAV is calculated once daily at the close of regular trading hours on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day the NYSE is open. The NAV is determined by totaling the value of all portfolio securities, cash and other assets held by the Fund, and subtracting from that total all liabilities, including accrued expenses.  The total net assets are divided by the total number of shares outstanding to determine the NAV of each share.


SECURITY TRANSACTIONS: Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recognized on the ex-dividend date.  Non-cash dividend income is recorded at the fair market value of



9


FOOTPRINTS DISCOVER VALUE FUND


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

MAY 31, 2020 (UNAUDITED)



securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.  The Fund uses the specific identification method in computing gain or loss on sale of investment securities.  Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted and amortized over the life of the respective securities. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Fund's understanding of the appropriate country's rules and tax rates.


OPTION WRITING: When the Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current fair value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from investments. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or, if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security or currency in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Fund. The Fund as writer of an option bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.


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


The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on the return filed for the open tax years (2018-2019) or expected to be taken in the Fund’s 2019 tax return. The Fund identifies it’s major tax jurisdiction as U.S. federal, and 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 12 months.


The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

FOOTPRINTS DISCOVER VALUE FUND


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

MAY 31, 2020 (UNAUDITED)



EXPENSES:  Expenses incurred by the Trust that do not relate to a specific fund of the Trust will be allocated to the individual funds based on each fund’s relative net assets or another appropriate basis (as determined by the Trustees).


REDEMPTION FEES: To discourage short-term trades by investors, and to offset any transaction and other costs associated with short-term trading, the Fund will impose a redemption fee of 1.00% on shares redeemed within 90 days of investment. Shares held longest will be treated as being redeemed first and shares held shortest as being redeemed last. The redemption fee is applied uniformly in all cases. There were no redemption fees collected by the Fund during the six months ended May 31, 2020.


CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: The Fund maintains its cash in an account at a custodian bank which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Fund has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash deposits.


DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: The Fund intends to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its net realized capital gains and net investment income, if any, on at least an annual basis. Distributions will be recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Distributions to shareholders are determined in accordance with income tax regulations. The treatment for financial reporting purposes of distributions made to shareholders during the year from net investment income or net realized capital gains may differ from their ultimate treatment for federal income taxes purposes. These differences are caused primarily by differences in the timing of the recognition of certain components of income, expense or realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes. Where such differences are permanent in nature, they are reclassified in the components of the net assets based on their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes.  Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations or NAV per share of the Fund.


USE OF ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the related amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Board has adopted guidelines for valuing securities and other derivative instruments including in circumstances in which market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to the Advisor to apply those methods in making fair value determinations, subject to Board oversight.  In accordance with the Trust’s good faith pricing guidelines, the Advisor is required to consider all appropriate factors relevant to the value of securities for which it has determined other pricing sources are not available or reliable as

described above.  No single standard for determining fair value controls, since fair value depends upon the circumstances of each individual case.  As a general principle, the current fair value of an issue of securities being valued by the Advisor would appear to be the amount which the owner might reasonably expect to receive for them upon their current sale.  Methods that are in accord with this principle may, for example, be based on (i) a multiple of earnings; (ii) a discount from market of a similar freely traded security (included a derivative security or a basket of securities traded on other markets, exchanges or among dealers); or (iii) yield to maturity with respect to debt issues, or a combination of these and other methods.


Hierarchy of Fair Value Inputs

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


·

Level 1. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.


·

Level 2. Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments in inactive markets, interest rates, implied volatilities, credit spreads, yield curves, and market-collaborated inputs.


·

Level 3. Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability at the measurement date, and that would be based on the best information available.


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


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


Fair Value Measurements

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

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

MAY 31, 2020 (UNAUDITED)



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


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


Derivative instruments (options). Derivative transactions that are actively traded, and valuation adjustments that are not applied, are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Derivative transactions traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Options are valued at the last sales prices on the valuation date. If the last sales price is not available then the options are valued at the closing bid price. These securities will be categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy if valued at other than closing price.


Short-term investments. Short-term investments are valued using amortized cost, which approximates fair value. These securities will be categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Money market funds are valued at their net asset value of $1 per share and are categorized as Level 1.


The following table summarizes the valuation of the Fund’s investments by the above fair value hierarchy levels as of May 31, 2020:

The Fund did not hold any Level 3 assets or liabilities during the six months ended May 31, 2020. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1 and 2 during the period. It is the Fund’s policy to recognize transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 at the end of the reporting period.


NOTE 4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT


INVESTMENT ADVISOR: The Advisor serves as investment advisor to the Fund pursuant to a management agreement with the Trust (the "Agreement").  Subject to the authority of the Board, the Advisor is responsible for management of the Fund's investment portfolio.  The Advisor is responsible for selecting the Fund's investments according to the Fund's investment objective, policies and restrictions and as compensation for its management services, the Fund is obligated to pay the Advisor a fee computed and accrued daily and paid monthly in arrears at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Fund during the term of the Agreement. For the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Advisor earned advisory fees of $11,615.  During the same period, the Advisor waived advisory fees of $11,615 and reimbursed the Fund additional expenses of $18,237.  As of May 31, 2020, the Advisor owed the Fund $5,376 for expense reimbursement in connection with the expense limitation agreement.


The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive its fees and reimburse expenses of the Fund, at least until March 31, 2021, to ensure that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and Reimbursement (exclusive of any front-end or contingent deferred loads; brokerage fees and commissions, acquired fund 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, and contractual indemnification of Fund service providers (other than the Advisor)) will not exceed 1.95% of average daily net assets.  These fee waivers and expense reimbursements are subject to possible recoupment from the Fund in future years on a rolling three-year basis (three years from the date that the fees have been waived or reimbursed) if such recoupment does not cause the Fund’s expense ratio (after the repayment is taken into account) to exceed both: (i) the Fund’s expense cap in place at the time such expenses were waived, and (ii) the Fund’s current expense cap at the time of recoupment.  This agreement may be terminated only by the Board, on 60 days' written notice to the Advisor. Advisory fees waived and/or reimbursed expenses that may be subject to potential recoupment by the Advisor through November 30, 2022, are as follows:

An interested Trustee, Gregory B. Getts, is the owner/president of Mutual Shareholder Services, LLC ("MSS"), the Fund’s transfer agent and fund accountant.  MSS receives an annual fee from the Fund of $11.50 per shareholder for the transfer agency services. For its services as fund accountant, MSS receives an annual fee from the Fund based on the average net assets of the Fund. The Fund accounting fees range from $22,200 to $70,450 depending on the average net assets of the Fund.  The Fund will receive a discount of between 10% - 50% on fund accounting fees until assets reach $10 million.  For the six months ended May 31, 2020, MSS earned $7,553 from the Fund for transfer agent and accounting services.  As of May 31, 2020, the Fund owes MSS $1,283 for transfer agent and accounting services.

The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, also entered into Administration and Compliance Agreements with Empirical Administration, LLC ("Empirical") which provides administration and compliance services to the Fund.  Brandon M. Pokersnik is the owner/president of Empirical, and also an employee of MSS.  Mr. Pokersnik serves as the Chief Compliance Officer of the Trust.  For the services Empirical provides under the Administration and Compliance Agreements, Empirical receives a monthly fee of $1,000 from the Fund.  For the six months ended May 31, 2020, Empirical earned $6,000 for these services. As of May 31, 2020, the Fund owed Empirical $1,000.

DISTRIBUTION FEES: The Fund has adopted a plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the "Plan").  The Plan permits the Fund to pay the Advisor for certain distribution and promotion expenses related to marketing shares of the Fund. The amount payable annually by the Fund is 0.25% of its average daily net assets.  The Plan is a compensation style plan which means the Fund accrues expenses and pays the Advisor based upon the percentage described above rather than on actual expenses incurred by the Advisor.


Subject to the oversight of the Trustees, the Trust may, directly or indirectly, engage in any activities related to the distribution of the Shares of the Fund, which activities may include, but are not limited to, the following:  (a) payments, including incentive compensation, to securities dealers or other financial intermediaries, financial institutions, investment advisors and others that are engaged in the sale of Fund Shares, or that may be advising shareholders of the Fund regarding the purchase, sale or retention of Fund Shares; (b) payments, including incentive compensation, to securities dealers or other financial intermediaries, financial institutions, investment advisers and others that hold

The Plan has been approved by the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the Plan or any related agreement, by a vote cast in person. Continuation of the Plan and the related agreements must be approved by the Trustees annually, in the same manner, and the Plan or any related agreement may be terminated at any time without penalty by a majority of such independent Trustees or by a majority of the outstanding shares of the Fund.  For the six months ended May 31, 2020, the Fund incurred distribution fees under the Plan of $2,904.

The Fund has adopted amendments to authoritative guidance on disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities, which require that the Fund disclose: a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments and b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.

 

The Advisor consistently assesses the value of existing positions in the Fund.  Generally, the Advisor exercises patience when fundamentals are stable but prices volatile.  The Advisor may at times write covered call options on a small portion of existing common stock positions in the Fund to generate premium. The Fund may trade financial instruments where they are considered to be a seller of credit derivatives in accordance with authoritative guidance under GAAP on derivatives and hedging.  The Fund may purchase and write (i.e., sell) put and call options. Such options may relate to particular securities or stock indices, and may or may not be listed on a domestic or foreign securities exchange and may or may not be issued by the Options Clearing Corporation. Option trading is a highly specialized activity that entails greater than ordinary investment risk. Options may be more volatile than the underlying instruments, and therefore, on a percentage basis, an investment in options may be subject to greater fluctuation than an investment in the underlying instruments themselves.


A call option for a particular security gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy, and the writer (seller) the obligation to sell, the underlying security at the stated exercise price at any time prior to the expiration of the option, regardless of the market price of the security. The premium paid to the writer is in consideration for undertaking the obligation under the option contract. A put option for a particular security gives the purchaser the right to sell the security at the stated exercise price at any time prior to the expiration date of the option, regardless of the market price of the security.

NOTE 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES


The Fund indemnifies the Trust’s officers and trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from the performance of their duties to the Fund.  Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain various representations and warranties and provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims against the Fund and is presently unknown.  However, the Fund considers the risk of loss from such potential claims to be remote.

NOTE 10.  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS


In August 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU 2018-13"). The primary focus of ASU 2018-13 is to improve the effectiveness of the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The changes affect all companies that are required to include fair value measurement disclosures. In general, the amendments in ASU 2018-13 are effective for all entities for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. An entity is permitted to early adopt the removed or modified disclosures upon the issuance of ASU 2018-13 and may delay adoption of the additional disclosures, which are required for public companies only, until their effective date. Management is currently evaluating the impact these changes will have on the Fund’s financial statements and disclosures.


NOTE 11.  MARKET RISK


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


An outbreak of infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19 was first detected in China in December 2019 and has now been detected globally. This coronavirus has resulted in travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged quarantines, cancellations, supply chain disruptions, and lower consumer demand, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of COVID-19, and other infectious illness outbreaks that may arise in the future, could adversely affect the economies of many nations or the entire global economy, individual issuers and capital markets in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. In addition, the impact of infectious illnesses in emerging market countries may be greater due to generally less established healthcare systems. Public health crises caused by the COVID-19 outbreak may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and

Expense Example


As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs which typically consist of management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; transaction fees such as redemption fees, sales loads and ongoing costs; 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, December 1, 2019 through May 31, 2020.


Actual Expenses


The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 first line 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 second line of the table below provides 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 balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in this Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
