DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS:
For this latest letter, we focus on a long-held Wasatch investment
philosophy: Genuinely great companies are as Warren Buffett has said rare gems that prevail regardless of political climates, economic conditions or market events.
This view is supported by an extensive quantitative study of corporate growth and survivorship undertaken by Patrick Viguerie and Sven
Smit, researchers with consulting giant McKinsey & Company. In 2008, Viguerie and Smit, along with former McKinsey colleague Mehrdad Baghai, published their work in the Wiley business bestseller, The Granularity of Growth.
In 2015, Smit revisited the books central thesis with another McKinsey colleague, Yuval Atsmon, to determine if the books
findings still held true. Smit and Atsmon built a brand-new proprietary database to track company fundamentals across S&P 500 Index constituents over the 30-year
period from 1983 to 2013. The duo published their |
findings in a McKinsey research report entitled Why Its Still a World of Grow or Go. The report found:
|
|
|
For the three-decade period, nearly 60% of the S&P 500 companies that lagged their peers in
terms of growth and profit margins were acquired. |
|
|
|
More than 75% of the S&P 500 constituents that generated top-line
growth and maintained or improved margins outperformed the Index over the period. |
|
|
|
56% of the companies that grew slowly but also aggressively distributed cash to shareholders outperformed the
Index. |
|
|
|
Companies with deteriorating margins underperformed, even if these companies were still growing at a significant
clip. |
After revisiting the core tenets of The Granularity of Growth, Smit and Atsmon concluded that
outperforming the competition remains possible in all industries, even in sluggish economic times. They added that high-performing companies continually seek the kind of growth that generates real and sustainable value.
Consistent with the principles described by the McKinsey researchers, wed like to emphasize the following points:
|
|
|
Were repeatedly faced with challenges the first quarter of 2019 presented its share,
including the longest federal government shutdown in U.S. history, the continuation of the U.S.-China trade tensions and the U.K.s wrangling over how to exit from the European Union. |
|
|
|
Financial markets rebounded from sharp fourth-quarter declines. Despite the recent strong stock-market
performance, we believe global economic growth is slowing. |
|
|
|
While were on the lookout for potential challenges, having a large universe to pick from means we can
always find high-quality, long-duration growth companies around the world and across market capitalizations. |
ECONOMY
In terms of economic news, we begin with the United States, the worlds largest economy. Real gross domestic product (GDP) in 2018s
fourth quarter rose at an annual rate of 2.2%, down from an earlier estimate of 2.6%. The retail-sales report from the U.S. Department of Commerce downwardly revised Decembers percentage decline from
-1.2% to -1.6%, further accentuating the worst month for retail sales since the global financial crisis. However, better news followed when it was reported that U.S.
retail sales for January 2019 posted a significant 2.3% year-over-year increase. The U.S. Consumer Price Index also edged up recently, but a temporary drop in energy prices helped to hold down the Index on a year-over-year basis. With core inflation
running at about a 2.1% annualized pace, the underlying trend remains in line with the Federal Reserves target of 2.0%.
Regarding
China, the worlds second-largest economy, early data indicate continued deceleration in 2019. Nevertheless, Chinas February retail sales rose more than 8% year-over-year, which was in line with forecasts. Whats more important to
us, however, is that the selection of high-quality Chinese companies has doubled in the past three years. We continue to devote significant on-the-ground due diligence
aimed at identifying emerging leaders in various industries. This research includes the A-share market of approximately 1,400 companies incorporated in mainland China.
We turn now to Japan, the worlds third-largest economy and home to what we believe is one of the most exciting small-cap markets globally. Despite being supported by easy monetary policy, many economic indicators such as GDP growth are uninspiring. However, there are positive factors such as Japans
multi-decade low unemployment rate. With the country facing a labor shortage, were seeing some wage inflation, which can act as a tailwind for Japans domestic consumers. The tight labor market is also creating opportunities for companies
that enable businesses to become more efficient and productive.
Continuing this review of developed nations, we land next on the United
Kingdom, which remains in upheaval over Brexit. In April, Prime Minister Theresa May secured an extension from the European Council, which gives her until October 31st to work out a compromise deal with the fractious British Parliament. The
uncertainty of Brexit has been clouding the British economy and markets since the referendum in 2016, and this haze is likely to persist until we know the outcome.
Among emerging markets, we see attractive company valuations coupled with bureaucratic reforms and stimulative government initiatives. In
addition, investor sentiment has improved due to low inflation and reduced concerns over monetary policies in developed nations. These factors have also enhanced the prospects for emerging-market currency valuations. Moreover, country balance sheets
have strengthened, as have international fund flows into emerging markets.

Beyond China, we believe Latin America may offer good investment opportunities. The regions political situation (although still highly
imperfect) has become somewhat more stable, and the economic recovery seems to be getting back on track. In Brazil, we saw signs of improving consumer sentiment, and we think the country will make progress regarding deficit reduction and reining in
corruption.
As for India, pro-business priorities and structural government-policy changes
implemented over the past several years should pay economic dividends beyond the next decade. The governments efforts along with attractive demographics and a still rapidly growing economy help make the
country one of our most-fertile grounds for finding promising emerging-market investments.
MARKETS
We recently heard a great adage about investing: The stock market is the only market where people head for the exit when things go on
sale. And considering what followed 2018s stock-market rout, heading for the exit certainly wasnt a wise move. As long-term investors, we prefer to use overall market weakness as an opportunity to increase our positions in
exceptional businesses.
During the first quarter of 2019, the U.S. large-cap S&P 500® Index advanced 13.65%. The technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index gained 16.81%. The Russell 2000® Index of small caps rose 14.58%. And
growth-oriented small caps performed extremely well, with the Russell 2000 Growth Index up 17.14%. Value-oriented small caps in the Russell 2000 Value Index were up 11.93%, as value stocks including those across larger market
capitalizations generally trailed growth stocks. The outperformance of growth stocks relative to value names was a continuation of a trend weve seen for a number of years.
For the most part, international stocks also performed very well but generally lagged those in the U.S. The MSCI World ex USA Index rose 10.45%
and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index gained 9.92% for the first quarter.
Intermediate- and long-term bond yields fell during the quarter as
the inversion of the yield curve signaled subdued inflationary expectations. Because bond prices move in the opposite direction of yields, bond indexes posted positive returns. The Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index increased 2.94%. And the
Bloomberg Barclays US 20+ Year Treasury Bond Index was up a solid 4.73%.
WASATCH
At Wasatch, we think the returns for stocks and bonds during the first quarter of 2019 were reminders of the difficulty of using macro events
to try to predict asset prices. It appeared to us that the first-quarter rebound was triggered by investors feeling relieved by the pause in tightening of U.S. monetary policy and the outright accommodative monetary policies in Europe and Asia.
Stock investors seemed to ignore the inverted yield curve and the signs of slowing economic growth around the world. For our part, we believe
its important to note that economic slowdowns and recessions arent all bad, as they can help correct excesses that build up during economic expansions. This underscores the importance of owning high-quality companies that are able to
maneuver through challenging times. Truly exceptional companies focus on the long term which provides the potential for investors like us to benefit from the power of compounding returns.
As weve said, forecasting macro events and how those events might affect stock prices over the short term isnt our game. But we do
recognize that macro events will sometimes create a tailwind for us, while at other times the wind will be in our faces. Through it all, we remain steadfastly focused on the long-term potential of individual stocks. In 2018, our investment team
visited companies in 23 countries. Over the past two years, weve had over 1,500 face-to-face meetings with management teams and made over 800 on-site company visits. We believe that interactions with such a broad array of companies, combined with our bottom-up quantitative screens, provide an even more robust view
of business conditions and competitive dynamics.
With sincere thanks for your continuing investment and for your trust,
Ken Applegate and Linda Lasater

OVERVIEW
Stocks roared back in the first quarter of 2019. The Wasatch Core Growth Fund Investor Class delivered a strong gain of
15.37% for the quarter, outperforming the 14.58% return of its primary benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index. The Fund slightly underperformed the Russell 2000 Growth Index, which rose 17.14%.
The past several quarters delivered a host of geopolitical, economic and technical market events including the U.S. government
shutdown, wrangling over Britains exit from the European Union and concerns of a hard landing for Chinas economy. Two other highly publicized macro issues also stood out to us:
1. The wild up-and-down swings in stock prices over the past 15
months underscored, in our view, what may be a sustained increase in market volatility.
2. In late March 2019, the yield curve inverted
for the first time since 2007, primarily due to the release of softer U.S. economic data, accommodative signals provided by Federal Reserve officials and bond investors believing interest-rate increases are over. Of course, many market pundits have
opined that every American recession over the past 60 years has been preceded by an inverted yield curve. These same pundits have usually failed to mention, however, that a yield-curve inversion doesnt predict the exact timing of a recession
or how stocks will perform.
We raise these two macro issues the significant increase in market volatility and the
yield-curve inversion not because our investment decisions rely heavily on macro conditions. Rather, we raise these issues because we think investors may have to get used to greater volatility in stock prices and because we want
shareholders to be mindful that economic and market predictions arent as accurate as the headlines would have us believe.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
The top contributor to performance for the first quarter was Euronet Worldwide, Inc., an electronic-payments business that operates ATMs,
traditional point-of-sale (POS) terminals, prepaid POS terminals and money-transfer networks. The company reported significant increases in operating income and adjusted
earnings per share. As is often the
case with stronger-than-expected numbers, Euronets stock price soared after the report. We continue to be impressed with the companys operating discipline as 2018 was
the sixth consecutive year that management delivered double-digit growth in adjusted earnings per share.
Another significant contributor
was auto-repair chain Monro, Inc. The company started to see a turnaround in 2017 after which we visited with Brett Ponton, Monros newly installed CEO. During this visit, we were encouraged by the companys long-term
growth prospects, along with Mr. Pontons strategic direction. In January 2019, Monro reported record revenue and a significant increase in net income. We remain pleased with Monros management team and believe the stock price has
started to reflect the companys progress.
The largest detractor from Fund performance was Metro Bank plc, one of the so-called challenger banks established in the U.K. after the global financial crisis. Despite Metros rapid growth, the stock plunged in January after the bank disclosed that it had applied an
incorrectly low risk weighting to parts of its loan book. The stock fell again in February on news that Metro will have to raise additional equity in order to put more capital behind the misclassified loans. The bank now faces the prospect of having
to issue stock at prices that are highly dilutive to the ownership stakes of existing shareholders.
Another major detractor was Cimpress
N.V., a mass-market customization provider of printing, signage and packaging services. In January, the company reported a second consecutive quarter of disappointing earnings. Cimpress grew consolidated revenue just 8% compared to 32%
for the year-ago quarter, which disappointed Wall Street. We plan to monitor Cimpress closely to see if the steep decline in consolidated revenue was a one-time
aberration or a more-meaningful trend.
OUTLOOK
As weve sifted through a multitude of sales and earnings reports over the past few months, weve tried to determine whether or not
our long-term holdings remain on track. For the most part, weve been very pleased with our companies progress which has led to remarkably little turnover in the Fund.
Going forward, we expect the relatively low turnover to continue. We think about it this way: U.S.
small-cap stocks are roughly trading at year-ago levels, but theres been quite a lot of volatility along the way. Meanwhile, our companies have grown their sales
and earnings at double-digit rates overall. We think our companies may have improved their competitive positions in the past year because great businesses tend to strengthen during times of slower economic growth, while lesser businesses tend to
weaken.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

Data shows past performance, which is not indicative of future performance. Current performance may be lower or higher than
the performance quoted. To obtain the most recent month-end performance data available, please visit www.WasatchFunds.com. The Advisor may absorb certain Fund expenses, without which total return would have been lower. Investment returns and
principal value will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
As of the January 31, 2019 prospectus,
the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses for the Wasatch Core Growth Fund are Investor Class: 1.18% / Institutional Class Gross: 1.08%, Net: 1.06%. The expense ratio shown elsewhere in this report may be different. Net expenses
are based on Fund expenses, net of waivers and reimbursements. See the prospectus for additional information regarding Fund expenses.
Wasatch Funds will
deduct a 2.00% redemption proceeds fee on Fund shares held 60 days or less. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of fees, including sales charges, or the taxes you would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Fees and
taxes, if reflected, would reduce the performance quoted. Wasatch does not charge any sales fees. For more complete information including charges, risks and expenses, read the prospectus carefully.
Performance for the Institutional Class prior to 1/31/2012 is based on the performance of the Investor Class. Performance of the Funds Institutional
Class prior to 1/31/2012 uses the actual expenses of the Funds Investor Class without any adjustments. For any such period of time, the performance of the Funds Institutional Class would have been substantially similar to, yet higher
than, the performance of the Funds Investor Class, because the shares of both classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, but the classes bear different expenses.
Investing in small cap funds will be more volatile and loss of principal could be greater than investing in large cap or more diversified funds. Investing in
foreign securities, especially in emerging markets, entails special risks, such as currency fluctuations and political uncertainties, which are described in more detail in the prospectus.

OVERVIEW
Indian equities registered solid gains during the first quarter of the year, with the benchmark MSCI India Investable Market Index
(IMI) rising 6.65%. Trailing the benchmark |
somewhat, the Wasatch Emerging India Fund Investor Class returned 5.32%.
Apprehension surrounding Indias upcoming general election helped keep stock-market gains in check during January and February. Investors
feared populist measures designed to enhance the ruling coalitions approval with voters might strain Indias finances. Rising oil prices also raised concerns in a country that imports about 80% of the oil it uses. Sentiment improved in
March after war was averted in the conflict with Pakistan along Indias northern border.
Energy stocks led Indias equity market
higher as the price of Brent crude surged 25% during the first three months of the year. Energy was the top-performing sector of the Index, and the Funds lack of investments in energy stocks was the
primary reason the Fund lagged its benchmark. Information-technology (IT) stocks also were strong performers, as the IT component of the Index posted a double-digit percentage gain during the quarter. As with energy, however, the Funds
significantly underweight position in IT hurt performance relative to the Index.
Consumer discretionary was one of the poorest-performing
sectors after a lackluster festival season in 2018 fanned concerns that Indias economy may be slowing. Although the Funds consumer-discretionary stocks outperformed their benchmark peers, our overweight position in the sector offset that
advantage. Health care and communication services were the Funds greatest sources of strength against the benchmark. In both of these sectors, our stocks appreciably surpassed their counterparts in the Index and helped Fund performance.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
Financials accounted for a number of the Funds best performers. These included the two top contributors for the quarter, ICICI Lombard
General Insurance Co. Ltd. and Bajaj Finance Ltd. ICICI Lombard is one of the largest private-sector general insurers in India. The company offers motor-vehicle, health, home, travel and other types of insurance coverage. An upswing in Indias
insurance cycle continued to benefit ICICI Lombard and other insurance companies.
A non-bank
financial company, Bajaj Finance is the lending arm of the Bajaj Group a well-regarded Indian industrial house founded in 1926. The company is experiencing secular
demand growth driven by increased financialization, favorable demographics and a cultural shift away from extended-family living arrangements. We believe the company is creating significant
headroom for future growth through its innovative use of technology to expand the markets it serves.
The greatest detractor from Fund
performance for the quarter was Godrej Consumer Products Ltd. Operating in India and internationally, Godrej is one of the leading manufacturers of household insecticides in India. As consumers seek new forms of protection from mosquito-borne
diseases, illegally manufactured mosquito-repellent incense sticks have captured a growing share of Indias household-insecticide market. Now that Godrej has launched its own mosquito-repellent incense stick under the flagship Goodknight brand,
we expect the competitive situation to improve.
Other weak stocks in the Fund included GRUH Finance Ltd. and Bandhan Bank Ltd. GRUH
provides a range of home loans and insurance products through a network of offices in India. Bandhan is a commercial bank offering traditional and internet-banking services. Investors reacted negatively to news that Bandhan was acquiring GRUH in
a stock-swap deal. The stock prices of both companies fell on the news, as the shareholders of both firms were unhappy with the details of the transaction. We liquidated the Funds positions in both companies to seek better
opportunities elsewhere.
OUTLOOK
According to official government data released in February, Indias year-over-year gross domestic product growth slowed to 6.6% during the
fourth quarter of last year down from a revised 7% in the previous quarter and the weakest reading in six quarters. For a variety of reasons, we dont view this report as a significant cause for concern.
First, our investment approach isnt driven by economic forecasts. Although we take macroeconomic factors into account, most of our
analysis focuses on the growth prospects of individual companies. And recent financial results from the companies we own in the Fund have generally been positive, with strong top-line growth in a number of our
consumer-related businesses.
Second, part of the recent slowdown resulted from sluggish sales of passenger cars and two-wheeled vehicles. Much of this can be attributed to higher financing costs and a shortage of loans during the fourth quarter as Indias shadow-banking system recovered from the default of a major player.
But the tighter liquidity conditions are helping the Funds non-bank financial companies gain market share as weaker competitors struggle to obtain capital.
Third, a benign inflationary environment has allowed Indias central bank to take a more-accommodative stance with respect to monetary
policy. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) cut interest rates in February to spur economic growth, and new RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das has signaled the possibility of future cuts.

As of the January 31, 2019 prospectus,
the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses for the Wasatch Emerging India Fund are Investor Class: 1.70% / Institutional Class Gross: 1.60%, Net: 1.51%. The expense ratio shown elsewhere in this report may be different. Net
expenses are based on Fund expenses, net of waivers and reimbursements. See the prospectus for additional information regarding Fund expenses.
Wasatch
Funds will deduct a 2.00% redemption proceeds fee on Fund shares held 60 days or less. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of fees, including sales charges, or the taxes you would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund
shares. Fees and taxes, if reflected, would reduce the performance quoted. Wasatch does not charge any sales fees. For more complete information including charges, risks and expenses, read the prospectus carefully.
Performance for the Institutional Class prior to 2/1/2016 is based on the performance of the Investor Class. Performance of the Funds Institutional Class
prior to 2/1/2016 uses the actual expenses of the Funds Investor Class without any adjustments. For any such period of time, the performance of the Funds Institutional Class would have been substantially similar to, yet higher than, the
performance of the Funds Investor Class, because the shares of both classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, but the classes bear different expenses.
Investing in small cap funds will be more volatile and loss of principal could be greater than investing in large cap or more diversified funds. Investing in
foreign securities, especially in emerging markets, entails special risks, such as unstable currencies, highly volatile securities markets and political and social instability, which are described in more detail in the prospectus.

OVERVIEW
Emerging-market equities got off to a strong start in 2019, helped by a dovish shift in U.S. monetary policy and the prospect of additional
economic stimulus in China. The benchmark MSCI Emerging Markets Index rose 9.92% during first quarter of the year. Outpacing the benchmark, the Wasatch Emerging Markets Select Fund Investor Class gained 13.20%.
After signaling a patient approach to raising interest rates in January, the U.S. Federal |
Reserve (Fed) pleased investors again in March by projecting no further rate hikes this year. The central bank also downgraded
its outlook for U.S. economic growth and said it would stop shrinking its balance sheet in September. Taken together, the Feds moves undercut the U.S. dollar, making riskier investments in emerging markets more attractive to investors.
Strong gains in China and Brazil were the main reasons the Fund surpassed its benchmark. The Chinese government vowed to continue
supporting the nations economy by cutting taxes and fees. In Brazil, new president Jair Bolsonaro faces the difficult tasks of reforming Brazils ailing pension system and reviving the economy, but we believe the companies we own there
represent enduring, high-quality businesses with attractive prospects for long-term growth.
The Funds overweight position in India
hurt performance, as apprehension ahead of upcoming elections kept Indian equities in check. A 25% increase in the U.S.-dollar price of Brent crude during the quarter also impacted sentiment toward India, which imports about 80% of the oil it uses.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
Chinese stocks were some of the strongest contributors to Fund performance. Among these was Ctrip.com International Ltd., which soared after
the online travel agent reported better-than-expected earnings and revenues in its most-recent quarter. Management cited the companys customer-centric initiatives and platform improvements, as well as Ctrips expansion into lower-tier
cities through localized product and
service offerings. Longer term, the company stands to benefit from rising urbanization rates and the transformation of Chinas economy from manufacturing and investment to service and
consumption.
MercadoLibre, Inc. was another large contributor. The company operates e-commerce
platforms in Brazil and other Latin American countries. MercadoLibres payment solution, MercadoPago, is driving strong growth at the company as an increasing number of e-commerce sites and brick-and-mortar retailers adopt MercadoPago as a preferred payment method.
The greatest detractor from Fund performance for the quarter was Godrej Consumer Products Ltd. Operating in India and internationally, Godrej
is one of Indias leading manufacturers of household insecticides. As Indian consumers seek new forms of protection from mosquito-borne diseases, illegally manufactured mosquito-repellent incense sticks have captured a significant share of the
household-insecticide market. Now that Godrej has launched its own mosquito-repellent incense stick under the flagship Goodknight brand, we expect the competitive situation to improve as informal players exit the market.
Second-largest detractor Discovery Ltd. provides insurance products and services in South Africa and other countries. Higher-than-expected
mortality experience impacted Discoverys life-insurance business in the companys most-recent quarter. Increased spending in Discoverys new businesses, which include a bank in South Africa and a health-insurance venture in China,
also hampered profitability. Given the expected growth in these new areas, however, we think the investments make sense.
OUTLOOK
Part of the reason for the Funds recent outperformance is the type of companies we own. Of particular interest to us are stable
businesses tied to secular growth in domestic demand from an expanding middle class. Were less interested in exporters and commodity producers, which are often subject to the whims of the global economy. During the first quarter, heightened
concerns about the pace of global growth boosted the appeal of our high-quality, long-duration businesses.
Given recent structural reforms
in India, were comfortable carrying an above-benchmark weighting in Indian stocks. Although the uncertainty surrounding Indias upcoming general election kept a lid on stock prices for most of the quarter, March was a month of strong
gains for Indian equities.
In China, we continue to devote significant research attention to the
A-share market, which consists of the stocks of approximately 1,400 companies incorporated in mainland China. Quoted in Chinese renminbi, A-shares are traded on
Chinas Shanghai or Shenzhen stock exchanges. Identifying long-duration growth opportunities of the type we favor has proven particularly difficult in China. The task is complicated by the need to invest in Chinese companies whose businesses
align with the goals of the Chinese government.

OVERVIEW
The Wasatch Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund Investor Class gained 10.39% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and
outperformed the MSCI Emerging Markets Small Cap Index, which gained 7.76%.
A dovish shift in U.S. monetary policy and the prospect
of additional economic stimulus in China helped emerging-market equities get off to a strong start in 2019. While we take macroeconomic factors into account, our primary focus is on analyzing the growth prospects of individual
companies in emerging markets. We look for stable businesses benefiting from secular trends tied to a countrys long-term development. We believe the Funds holdings are high-quality businesses capable of long-duration growth.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
For the quarter, the Funds holdings in India substantially outperformed their benchmark counterparts. India is the Funds largest
country weighting, and the Fund is significantly overweight versus the Index. Info Edge India Ltd., a leader in online classified advertising, was a top contributor to Fund performance. We believe the company has substantial headroom for growth as
the Indian market is in the early stages of shifting from print to online advertising. In other markets, we have seen dominant providers of online classified ads demonstrate consistent growth and they are extremely difficult for competitors to
dislodge.
The Funds holdings in China significantly outperformed those in the benchmark for the
quarter led by top overall contributor Vitasoy International Holdings Ltd. This Chinese company offers soy milk, tofu, rice milk, tea, juices and related
food-and-beverage products in over 40 countries. Vitasoy reported strong earnings citing improved manufacturing efficiency and favorable trends in commodity prices,
particularly sugar and milk powder.
Taiwan was another large contributor to performance led by Win Semiconductors Corp. Win manufactures
gallium arsenide (GaAs) wafers, the dominant semiconductor technology for mobile devices. Win is expected to benefit from the deployment of 5G user equipment and network infrastructure. Win also provides optoelectronic device fabrication services
for optical communication and 3D sensing applications. Strong demand for 3D sensing has been increasing and diversifying the companys growth profile.
The Funds largest detractor was Douzone Bizon Co. Ltd., the leading accounting software and enterprise-resource planning (ERP) provider
in Korea. The company has been transitioning from desktop to cloud software products, which has led to a pickup in growth, margins and returns on capital. Douzones ERP business has been more volatile than expected and earnings were below
expectations, but we expect the ERP segment to become more consistent over time.
Magazine Luiza S.A., the Funds top
contributor for 2018, detracted for the first quarter of 2019. The company operates consumer-electronic stores in Brazil. Strong information-technology infrastructure drives its e-commerce business,
and its stores act as showrooms and mini-distribution centers.
Muangthai Capital Public Co. Ltd., a provider of lending services in
Thailand, was the third-largest detractor. Uncertainty around pending regulation of non-bank financial companies in Thailand and the effect it might have on current interest rates and fees has been
substantially resolved.
OUTLOOK
Positive factors that could help emerging markets in 2019 include the U.S. Federal Reserves lowered projections for future interest-rate
hikes, the potential for a trade deal between the U.S. and China, and the inexpensive prices of emerging-market stocks compared to those in developed markets. Moreover, many emerging-market currencies have stabilized against the U.S. dollar. Lower
inflation is supportive of domestic consumers in emerging-market countries.
In India, we expect that when the upcoming national elections
are complete, investors will be better able to focus on the strong business momentum and fundamentals that we see every day as we research individual Indian companies.
The emerging-market universe is becoming more diverse across sectors. We are seeing more knowledge-based companies and companies with valuable
intellectual property. These and other positive factors support the future of emerging-market equity investing and the long-term growth of companies in these markets.

managers led by Scott Thomas and Jared Whatcott.

OVERVIEW
The first quarter of 2019 saw global equity markets rebound from fourth-quarter weakness. In the frontier and emerging small countries
universe, the MSCI Frontier Emerging Markets |
Index rose 9.44% and the Wasatch Frontier Emerging Small Countries Fund Investor Class gained 9.66%.
The strength of the U.S. dollar, which has been a persistent headwind for frontier markets and many small emerging-market countries, continued
to abate in the first quarter as the U.S. Federal Reserve signaled a patient approach to raising interest rates in January and again in March by projecting no further rate hikes this year. Whats more, perceived progress on
U.S.-China trade negotiations, however slight, and a recovery in oil prices, after hitting recent lows in December 2018, helped to improve investors sentiment on the frontier asset class.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
Egypt was the largest contributor to Fund performance for the first quarter. After a difficult period of adjustment and foreign currency
liberalization in 2016, the country is now witnessing strong and ameliorating fundamentals such as improving external balances, healthy foreign exchange reserves, inflation normalization, and positive fiscal-reform initiatives. These factors along
with high domestic bond yields have attracted asset inflows into the countrys equity and debt markets. Cleopatra Hospital, the largest private hospital operator in Egypt, was a top contributor for the Fund. Cleopatra is at the forefront of
consolidating a fragmented and underdeveloped hospital market. With Egypts population of 100 million people, a significant undersupply of hospital beds, and one of the lowest levels of health-care spending per capita in the region, we believe
demand for Cleopatras services is set to grow at a rapid pace.
Two Latin American companies MercadoLibre, Inc. and
Globant S.A. were the top contributors to Fund performance for the quarter. MercadoLibre operates e-commerce platforms in Brazil and other Latin American countries. The companys
most-recent report highlighted continued strength in sales growth across key markets such as Brazil and Argentina.
Globant, an
information-technology services company based in Argentina, has been witnessing strong demand for its digital services and benefits from a portfolio of high-quality, blue-chip customers. Globants recently reported results were strong with
revenue and margin guidance better
than we had expected driven mostly by the companys ability to meet the needs of media and financial customers.
Colombia was the top-performing country within the Index, increasing nearly 25% for the quarter. As a result, our underweight exposure to
Colombia detracted significantly from performance relative to the benchmark. Colombias economic indicators were surprisingly good, making evident a gradual firming of economic growth. The Colombian peso appreciated 1.9% in nominal terms versus
the U.S. dollar, aided by higher oil prices, the countrys key export.
Our only holding in Colombia, Banco Davivienda S.A., a
universal bank, gained nearly 25% during the quarter. The company has been benefiting from accelerating loan growth and improving credit-quality trends. Mortgages, a key lending segment for the bank, increased 16% from the same period a year ago.
Banco Daviviendas digital customers reached 1.4 million, up 62% from the year-ago period.
The largest detractor from Fund
performance for the quarter was Discovery Ltd., a South Africa-based insurance company. The company reported worse-than-expected semi-annual results, citing higher investment spending on emerging businesses and a spike in mortality claims. While
many investors appear concerned with the companys elevated spending on what may seem to be initiatives with uncertain outcomes, we remain confident in Discoverys long-term growth opportunities and see the stock-price weakness as a
temporary overreaction.
Muangthai Capital Public Co. Ltd., a provider of lending services in Thailand, was also a large detractor.
Uncertainty around pending regulation of non-bank financial companies in Thailand and the effect it might have on current interest rates and fees has been substantially resolved.
OUTLOOK
While specific externalities have been overwhelming many frontier and small emerging markets, including the strong U.S. dollar, others such as
weakening commodity prices and external imbalances have largely turned neutral to positive. We believe that the difficult adjustments many frontier and emerging small countries are continuing to make will allow economic stability to continue to
improve. Egypt is a good example of how structural reforms are now paying off with better stability and an environment that is more supportive of companies efforts to meet their long-term strategic goals.
By continually striving to position the Fund in what we regard as the highest-quality companies across frontier markets and small
emerging-market countries, we believe we provide the Fund with the best chance of reaping the potential long-term rewards.
We believe that
bottom-up analysis and travel to the regions in which we invest are critical, as economic growth, political structures and willingness to reform vary widely in developing countries. We continue to travel extensively and are excited about the future
of frontier and emerging small countries and their expanding role in the global economy.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your
assets.

Data shows past performance, which is not indicative of future performance. Current performance may be lower or higher than
the performance quoted. To obtain the most recent month-end performance data available, please visit www.WasatchFunds.com. The Advisor may absorb certain Fund expenses, without which total return would have been lower. Investment returns and
principal value will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
As of the January 31, 2019 prospectus,
the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses for the Wasatch Frontier Emerging Small Countries Fund are Investor Class Gross: 2.31%, Net: 2.17% / Institutional Class Gross: 2.07%, Net: 1.98%. The
expense ratio shown elsewhere in this report may be different. Net expenses are based on Fund expenses, net of waivers and reimbursements. See the prospectus for additional information regarding Fund expenses.
Wasatch Funds will deduct a 2.00% redemption proceeds fee on Fund shares held 60 days or less. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of fees,
including sales charges, or the taxes you would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Fees and taxes, if reflected, would reduce the performance quoted. Wasatch does not charge any sales fees. For more complete information
including charges, risks and expenses, read the prospectus carefully.
Performance for the Institutional Class prior to 2/1/2016 is based on the
performance of the Investor Class. Performance of the Funds Institutional Class prior to 2/1/2016 uses the actual expenses of the Funds Investor Class without any adjustments. For any such period of time, the performance of the
Funds Institutional Class would have been substantially similar to, yet higher than, the performance of the Funds Investor Class, because the shares of both classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, but the classes bear
different expenses.
Investing in small cap funds will be more volatile and loss of principal could be greater than investing in large cap or more
diversified funds. Investing in foreign securities, especially in frontier and emerging markets, entails special risks, such as currency fluctuations and political uncertainties, which are described in more detail in the prospectus.

OVERVIEW
Led by the U.S. and growth stocks in
particular the MSCI ACWI Small Cap Index snapped back from its fourth-quarter swoon. The Index gained 13.10% for the first quarter of 2019, recouping a good portion of the losses from the prior period. The Wasatch Global
Opportunities Fund Investor Class outpaced its benchmark, advancing 16.78%. In our view, global equities were due
for a recovery. We saw the fourth- |

|

quarter selloff as the product of an event-driven market that didnt reflect continuing fundamental business strength both
in the U.S. and elsewhere.
During the first quarter, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed), after signaling a patient approach to
raising interest rates, projected no further rate hikes this year, downgraded its outlook for U.S. economic growth and said it would stop shrinking its balance sheet in September. The Feds moves undercut the U.S. dollar, making investments in
international stocks outside the U.S. somewhat more attractive to investors. Hopes of a constructive solution to the U.S.-China trade dispute also buoyed the markets.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
The U.S., aided in particular by strong results from information-technology companies, contributed the most to the Funds outperformance
of the Index in the first quarter. Japan was the next-best country contributor.
The Funds top-contributing holding for the quarter
was MercadoLibre, Inc., which operates e-commerce platforms in Brazil and other Latin American countries. MercadoLibres payment solution, MercadoPago, is driving strong growth at the company as an
increasing number of e-commerce sites and brick-and-mortar retailers adopt MercadoPago as a preferred payment method.
The second-best contributor was U.S.-based financial transaction processing services provider Euronet Worldwide, Inc. All three segments of the
business Electronic Financial Transaction (EFT) Processing, Money Transfer and epay showed double-digit operating-profit growth driven by margin expansion, with particular strength in epay.
Zendesk, Inc. was another top contributor from the U.S. information-technology sector. This Software-as-a-Service company focuses on providing customer service and engagement products that help organizations support their
customers across various channels including phone, chat, email and social media. Zendesk continued to execute its growth plans.
The
greatest detractor from Fund performance was Metro Bank plc. This U.K. retail bank has been disrupting the high street banking industry and winning new customers with its customer-first, employee-empowered strategy and culture. During the
quarter, an internal misclassification forced Metro to raise its risk weightings on certain commercial-property loans and buy-to-let mortgages. This required a capital
increase 12% higher than analysts had been expecting. Despite the volatility in Metros stock price and short-term uncertainties, we believe there is significant upside potential if the company can execute its business strategy.
Cimpress N.V., a mass-market customization printed-materials provider, also weighed on Fund performance. The company reported
surprisingly disappointing results across its business lines, owing in part to higher customer-acquisitions costs. Were looking into our concerns regarding the competitive environment.
Finally, the Funds position in Sangamo Therapeutics, Inc. was down for the quarter. A clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company,
Sangamo specializes in the treatment and cure of gene disorders. Investors reacted negatively to interim results from an early-stage study using the companys zinc-finger editing technology for the
treatment of Hurler syndrome. However, we think its too early to draw conclusions until results from the studys high-dose subjects have been released.
OUTLOOK
After the swift snapback in stock prices that weve seen thus far in 2019, were remaining watchful of heightened equity valuations.
Over the longer term, we believe that the fundamentals supporting the growth of the U.S. economy remain in place. While incoming data suggest softening of industrial-production numbers, businesses are generally cautiously optimistic. Bolstered by
more accommodative Fed policy, stocks may have further room to appreciate in 2019, particularly if driven by positive economic political catalysts.
In Japan, where stocks generally experienced a difficult fourth quarter, valuations of many companies bounced back in the first quarter. We
continue to see strong fundamentals among our Japanese holdings.
For stocks in the United Kingdom, uncertainty is the greatest problem
caused by Brexit. As we have said before, many of the Funds U.K. holdings generate the majority of their earnings in foreign markets.
We continue to monitor global political and economic developments that could affect the Funds performance. At the same time, our primary
focus remains, as ever, on investing in companies with solid fundamentals and strong long-term growth prospects.
Thank you for the
opportunity to manage your assets.

|
Management Discussion
The Wasatch Global Value Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by David
Powers.
|
|
|
David Powers, CFA
Lead Portfolio Manager |
|
OVERVIEW
The Wasatch Global Value Fund Investor Class gained 9.64% in the first quarter of 2019, but underperformed the
benchmark MSCI ACWI (All Country World Index), which returned 12.18%. Large-cap U.S.
equities, as measured by the S&P 500® Index, returned 13.65% in the quarter compared to 9.98% for large- and mid-cap international equities as
gauged by the MSCI |
EAFE Index. After the fourth-quarter 2018 rout in financial markets, the Federal Reserve (Fed) signaled a patient approach
entering 2019 and eventually indicated it would likely hold interest rates steady through year-end. The European Central Bank and the Peoples Bank of China also moved toward more-stimulative stances.
Taken together with indications of progress toward resolving the U.S.-China trade dispute, the tenor of central-bank communications outweighed investor concerns about slowing global economic growth.
Within the global equity universe, information technology, real estate and energy were outperforming sectors, while health care and financials
were underperforming sectors. The Fund benefited relative to its benchmark from stock selection in the energy, real-estate and materials sectors. While information technology was the leading contributor to the Funds return, our underweight
position in the sector detracted from relative performance as did our selection of consumer-discretionary holdings.
The United States, the
United Kingdom (U.K.) and Switzerland added the most to the Funds return. Relative to the benchmark, the U.K. and Switzerland were strong contributors, while the U.S., China and Japan were significant detractors. As of quarter-end, a little over half of the Funds assets were invested in the U.S. with the remainder spread across 13 other countries. Outside the U.S., our typical country weight is small and driven predominantly
by company- and sector-specific factors.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
EPR Properties was the top contributor to Fund performance in the first quarter. A real estate investment trust (REIT),
EPR owns recreational and entertainment properties including megaplex theaters, amusement parks and ski areas, as well as properties leased to charter schools, private schools and early-education providers. With a dividend of nearly 6%, EPRs
shares benefited in the quarter along with the larger REIT segment as interest rates declined and the Fed signaled a halt to hikes in its benchmark rate. In addition, issues around a delinquent educational tenant that leases a number of EPR
properties moved closer toward resolution.
Technology company Cisco Systems, Inc. was the second-best contributor. Cisco has
recently begun to reap the benefits of an investment cycle, seeing a notable increase in
recurring revenue as it moves from selling hardware and networking services to a subscription-based business model.
Within energy, exploration and production company Suncor Energy, Inc. performed well. Suncor specializes in the development of oil sands
to produce bitumen (asphalt), which can be used in paving and roofing materials or refined into higher-value synthetic crude oil or diesel fuel. Suncor shares benefited in the quarter as the price of oil rose more than 25% supported by OPEC
production cuts.
On the downside, our large position in CVS Health Corp. weighed heavily on performance. Investors were
disappointed by managements guidance for the retail drugstore and pharmacy benefit management (PBM) businesses. More broadly, investors are concerned about the pricing environment for PBMs, given proposals to eliminate rebates paid by drug
companies and political rhetoric around lowering drug prices. Disappointing earnings from competitor Walgreens did nothing to boost optimism for CVS stock. The companys cash flow and dividend remain attractive, and we believe CVS is
well-positioned for the long term given its many consumer touchpoints. However, given the complexity in valuing the stock, we trimmed the position in the quarter.
Taiwan financial-services company Fubon Financial Holding Co. Ltd. was the second-largest detractor. In addition to its principal
life-insurance arm, Fubon has a significant banking and investment business, which posted poor results in the wake of the fourth-quarter 2018 equity-market decline. The unit was also negatively affected by currency-hedging costs and exchange-rate
losses. We view Fubon as an excellent way to gain exposure to Asias developing middle class.
An overweight position in
Japan Airlines Co. Ltd. detracted from relative performance in the quarter as rising fuel costs impacted investor sentiment regarding the broader airline segment. Investors have also been concerned that the airline may make a significant
expenditure on international airport slots in the run-up to the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. We view any such investment as likely to benefit the long-term outlook for Japan Airlines and have maintained the
position.
OUTLOOK
The rebound in global equities in early 2019 reflected investors perception that risks to corporate-earnings growth had been reduced
given signals of monetary support from major central banks, a somewhat better outlook for U.S.-China trade relations and large-scale stimulus being injected into Chinas economy. At current levels, stock prices appear quite vulnerable to any
signs of softening earnings. With growth stocks trading at significant premiums as investors anticipate the end of the current cycle, value stocks appear attractive on a relative basis.
We continue to prefer a defensive-minded approach that we expect to be beneficial as late-cycle dynamics gain traction. The Fund remains tilted
toward higher-quality companies within the global large-cap value universe, as gauged by lower market sensitivity, lower valuations, higher cash flows, higher dividends and stronger balance sheets.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

OVERVIEW
The Wasatch International Growth Fund Investor Class gained 13.72% in the first quarter of 2019, outperforming the MSCI
ACWI (All Country World Index) ex USA Small Cap Index, which returned 10.26%.
Astute investors know that wealth is created by
focusing on the long term and letting the power of compounding work its magic. During the first quarter of 2019, equity markets had a strong rally following a weak fourth quarter. Although quarter-to-quarter swings in performance can be quite distracting, the important point we want to make is that the more you stay focused on the long term and the longer your timeframe, the more the power of
compounding can work for you. For example, the Funds average annual total return for the 10 years ended March 31, 2019 was 15.96% compared to 11.86% for the Index. In other words, if a shareholder had hypothetically invested $10,000 in
the Wasatch International Growth Fund 10 years ago on March 31, 2009, it would have been worth nearly $44,000 as of March 31, 2019, versus about $31,000 if one had invested the same amount in the Index.* This is the power of compounding.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
Wasatchs investment team visited the United Kingdom during January and found that Brexit-related uncertainties continued to prevail. Most
U.K. companies have been preparing for a hard Brexit the U.K. leaves the European Union without a deal and weakness was evident in many domestic-facing companies. We reduced our exposure to U.K. domestic-focused
companies following the 2016 referendum. Since then, the majority of the Funds U.K.-listed holdings derive a meaningful portion of their earnings and growth from outside the country.
An example is Fevertree Drinks plc, a strong contributor to the Funds first-quarter performance. London-based Fevertree provides premium
tonics and drink mixers. After refining the Fevertree brand in the U.K., it has been successfully expanding globally. The initial foray abroad was to Europe, where Fevertree is now seeing strong growth. More recently, the company has been expanding
throughout the U.S. Fevertree reported another quarter of strong financial results.
The greatest detractor from Fund performance was Metro Bank plc, a retail bank in the
U.K. that has been disrupting the high street banking industry and winning new customers with its customer-first, employee-empowered strategy and culture. During the quarter, an internal misclassification forced Metro to raise its risk
weightings on certain commercial-property loans and buy-to-let mortgages. This required a capital increase 12% higher than analysts had been expecting. Despite the
volatility in Metros stock price and short-term uncertainties, we believe that if the company can execute its business strategy, there will be significant upside potential.
Japan, the Funds largest country weighting, added significantly to the Funds return and outperformance of the benchmark in the
first quarter. Although the fourth quarter was difficult from a stock-price performance perspective, it provided us the opportunity to add to what we consider some of our highest-quality companies. An example is Nihon M&A Center, Inc., which has
seen business reaccelerate following a slowdown in deal flow last year. With business succession a growing issue in Japan, Nihon M&A helps small-business owners, often those nearing retirement, to find buyers for their companies. Nihon M&A
ended the first quarter as one of the Funds top contributors.
Conversely, Pigeon Corp., a Japanese provider of baby bottles, lotions
and related products, detracted from Fund performance as earnings were below expectations due to weak sales in China. Our research indicates this weakness is likely transitory. Pigeon continues to innovate and has two key product launches scheduled,
which we believe will accelerate growth in years to come.
OUTLOOK
In May, we will spend two weeks in Europe, where we see positive changes occurring. Although Europe faces numerous
headwinds including weak economic data valuations relative to other developed regions are becoming more compelling.
The U.K. remains a challenging investment environment but the country has a deep pool of high-quality companies, many of which generate the
majority of their earnings outside the U.K. This is a key reason the Fund is overweight versus the benchmark in the U.K.
Despite being one
of the worlds largest developed economies, Japans market is still inefficient and misunderstood by many investors, which provides opportunities for us to use our expertise and on-the-ground research to find companies with outstanding investment potential.
We remain
confident in the ability of our companies across the globe to navigate turbulent environments by virtue of their experienced management teams, solid business models and strong competitive positions. We remain optimistic regarding their long-term
prospects given recent meetings and calls with management teams, which point to continued investment in their businesses.
Thank you for

OVERVIEW
The International Opportunities Fund Investor Class was up 13.49% for the first quarter and outperformed the benchmark
MSCI ACWI ex USA Small Cap Index, which rose 10.26%.
The first quarter of 2019 saw a strong rebound in the worlds equity markets as
concerns about a potential escalation in the U.S.-China trade dispute and worries that higher interest rates would dampen global growth quickly faded with the New Year.
While a number of economic and political risks could potentially slow global growth and increase equity-market volatility, keeping our focus on
investing in high-quality companies is the best way we know to mitigate those risks. With that perspective, we aim to construct a portfolio of micro-cap businesses with sustainable competitive advantages that
are able to thrive, not just survive, in uncertain environments like those we have been witnessing.
DETAILS
OF THE QUARTER
The countries that made the largest contributions to Fund
performance during the first quarter were Japan, Australia and China. The United Kingdom was the largest detractor from performance relative to the benchmark.
Japan regained its title as the largest contributor to the Funds return in the quarter. Leading the way for Japan was Digital Arts, Inc.,
a developer of email-filtering and web- security software. With sales to public-sector customers accelerating, Digital Arts also has been seeing margin expansion, leading to strong stock performance on
the back of a vigorous rebound in Japans information-technology (IT) sector.
In Australia, following lackluster gross domestic
product (GDP) growth and consumer spending in 2018, as well as a housing downturn last year, the equity market roared to life in 2019, with the health-care and IT sectors performing especially well. Pro Medicus Ltd. was the top overall contributor
to Fund performance. This Australian company provides enterprise medical imaging and radiology information system software to world-class medical groups, and has been seeing strong revenue growth and margin expansion.
Australias Webjet Ltd., an online travel-booking company, was another strong contributor. Webjet continued to
grab market share and was able to achieve profit-margin targets earlier than had been expected.
The Funds performance in China was helped by Yihai International Holdings Ltd., our second-best contributor. Yihai makes and sells hotpot
soup flavorings, hotpot dipping sauces and Chinese-style compound condiments under its parents Haidilao brand name. Yihai reported strong results for the second half of its fiscal year.
While we were pleased with the performance of the aforementioned companies, the performance of a few companies was disappointing. The
Funds biggest detractors from performance for the quarter were accesso Technology Group plc, TCI Co. Ltd. and Qol Co. Ltd.
London-listed accesso develops IT solutions such as virtual queuing, ticketing, point of sales, group ticketing and guest management for
entertainment and leisure venues. Following some earlier issues regarding a surprise increase in research and development spending as well as increased capitalization of product development, the company recently announced unexpected management
changes while not adequately addressing questions regarding future investment plans. We exited the position due to lack of confidence.
Taiwanese health-supplement maker TCI was the Funds second-largest detractor for the quarter on concerns over Chinas regulatory
crackdown on inaccurate advertising. Our team discussed the issue with TCI management and came away feeling comfortable that the regulatory concerns are not likely to impact growth. Furthermore, we believe the opportunity in health food and beauty
products remains intact.
Japan-listed dispensing pharmacy Qol was the third-largest detractor. In addition to a regulation change in Japan
that disproportionately affects dispensing pharmacies, Qols earnings have not met our expectations. We decided to move on.
OUTLOOK
International equity markets ended the first quarter riding a wave of optimism over less contentious U.S.-China trade relations as well as
more-dovish central-bank attitudes. It remains to be seen, however, whether easier monetary policy and more-stable trade policies will be enough to support the global equity markets through the rest of 2019. China bears watching to see if the
governments efforts will be enough to adequately stimulate domestic Chinese demand.
We continue to find many gems among micro-cap companies in the Japanese market. In addition to Japan, the Wasatch team made research trips to the U.K., India and Taiwan during 2019s first quarter. We found a number of exciting new names and
invested in companies that we see as high quality.
Our ongoing travels to the four corners of the globe have given us opportunities to
refine the Fund as we have met with the management teams of prospective investments and current holdings alike. As we gain confidence in the business models and strategies of our portfolio companies, our optimism for the Funds long-term
prospects also grows.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

Korngiebel and Dan Chace.

OVERVIEW
Micro-cap equities staged a strong rally during the first quarter of the year, recouping some of
the ground lost during the final months of 2018. The benchmark Russell Microcap Index |
rose 13.10%. The Wasatch Micro Cap Fund surpassed the Index with a gain of 18.86%.
U.S. stocks advanced as the Federal Reserve (Fed) in January signaled a patient approach to raising interest rates and then went a
step further in March by saying that another hike in 2019 would be unlikely. Improved hopes for a speedy resolution to the U.S.-China trade dispute also underpinned support for equities.
Yields on U.S. Treasury bonds and notes fell sharply in March as the Fed downgraded its forecast for the U.S. economy and announced the end of
its program to reduce the debt securities it holds on its balance sheet. With the weaker outlook threatening to crimp demand for loans and further depress lending rates, financial stocks were significant laggards. However, the Funds
below-benchmark exposure to financials about 9% compared to about 24% for the Index significantly benefited relative performance.
For the most part, the prospect of lower interest rates and scarce growth in the economy made the innovative, growing companies we seek to own
more appealing to investors. The information-technology (IT) sector was by far the Funds largest source of outperformance relative to the benchmark, followed by industrials, consumer discretionary and communication services.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
The strongest contributor to Fund performance for the quarter was Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. The company offers insulin-delivery systems for
people with diabetes. Tandems share price jumped in February on better-than-expected quarterly results and strong guidance for 2019. Total pump shipments surged 133% versus the year-ago quarter, sending
revenues 89% higher and pushing earnings into the black sooner than analysts had been expecting.
Cybersecurity companies Rapid7, Inc. and
CyberArk Software Ltd. were the Funds second- and third-best contributors, respectively. Rapid7 provides analytics solutions including vulnerability management and incident detection. Helped by the shift to a subscription-based business
model and increased demand, revenues in Rapid7s most-recent quarter surpassed Wall Street estimates.
CyberArk specializes in
products and services for organizations to safeguard and monitor their privileged accounts.
Adjusted earnings per share jumped 117% in the companys most-recent quarter on 36% revenue growth. Management said the trend toward cloud-based computing is boosting demand for
CyberArks cybersecurity solutions and helping to make the company a critical component of its customers digital transformations.
The greatest detractor from Fund performance for the quarter was Metro Bank plc. One of the so-called
challenger banks established in the U.K. after the financial crisis, Metro is noted for outstanding customer experience. In January, the bank disclosed that it had applied an incorrectly low risk weighting to parts of its loan book. In February,
Metro revealed that it would have to raise additional equity in order to put more capital behind the misclassified loans. The bank now faces the prospect of having to issue stock at prices that are highly dilutive to the ownership stakes of existing
shareholders. Events at Metro Bank have raised concerns about the banks internal controls and managements shifting account as to how the errors were discovered hasnt soothed investors. Meanwhile, the banks
ambitious growth plans have largely been shelved until the equity raise has been completed. We continue to hold the stock at a low weight but are watching developments closely.
The second-largest detractor was USANA Health Sciences, Inc. The company manufactures and sells nutritional supplements and personal-care
products directly to associates and customers in the U.S. and other countries. USANAs stock price declined amid ongoing regulatory questions in China that were first disclosed about two years ago. With the companys internal investigation
into the matter now substantially complete, management reported that it doesnt expect a material impact. In our own experience, its not unusual for firms employing USANAs multi-level distribution model to attract the attention of
regulators. We remain patient pending further developments.
Sangamo Therapeutics, Inc. was another significant detractor. A
clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, Sangamo specializes in the treatment and cure of gene disorders. Investors reacted negatively to interim results from an early-stage study using the companys
zinc-finger editing technology for the treatment of Hurler syndrome. However, we think its too early to draw conclusions until results from the studys high-dose subjects have been released.
OUTLOOK
Although the Feds policy shift appeared to alter investor perceptions during the first quarter, our investment process doesnt
depend on a particular outlook or forecast. Regardless of which types of stocks happen to be in or out of vogue, we continue to do our job the same way. As bottom-up, fundamental investors focused on the long
term, we seek companies that can grow regardless of the overall economic environment. We believe our disciplined, research-driven investment approach has the potential to generate attractive returns over time.

OVERVIEW
U.S. equity markets rebounded sharply in the first quarter of 2019, with some swaths of the market high-growth stocks, in
particular now more expensive than they were prior to the fourth quarters sharp selloff. The Wasatch Micro Cap Value Fund gained 13.82%, approximately in line with the benchmark Russell Microcap Index, which advanced
13.10%. Dovish commentary from U.S. |
Federal Reserve (Fed) officials kicked off the rebound early in the quarter. In our view, U.S. equities were due for a
recovery. We believed the fourth quarter selloff was overdone. We had expected the Fed to strike a more moderate stance on interest rates because inflation has remained tame and there havent been many signs of excessive risk-taking among
businesses and consumers. Other positives during the quarter included the end of the partial government shutdown and de-escalation of U.S.-China trade-war rhetoric.
During the markets strong first-quarter upswing, the Funds more growthy names led the way. We trimmed some of them,
including microchip makers Inphi Corp. and MaxLinear, Inc., as stock-price performance increased their weights in the Fund to be larger than we desired. Reducing the size of a position to keep it in line with our ongoing assessment of the
companys growth prospects and valuation level is an important aspect of our risk-management process.
With the U.S. economy still on
solid footing, one would normally expect economically cyclical, value-oriented names to be more in favor. Yet investors seem as willing as ever to pay high premiums for growth stocks.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
Inphi and MaxLinear, mentioned above, were among the Funds top contributors to first-quarter performance. These companies are leaders in
the connected home space, which is increasing the need for fast data connections. In our view, Inphi and MaxLinear are poised to benefit as DOCSIS 3.1, a new international cable modem standard, becomes more widely adopted. Both companies
also stand to benefit as more new 5G wireless infrastructure is built. We had originally purchased Inphi and MaxLinear as beaten-up technology names and were pleased to see their stock prices bounce back
sharply in the first quarter.
Construction Partners, Inc., an asphalt-paving firm, was another top contributor. The companys stock
price was pulled down in 2018 along with other names in its industry as investors fretted about inflation in road-aggregate asphalt prices. We recognized that Construction Partners business was actually somewhat insulated from those price
increases and added to our position. When the company announced its most-recent quarterly results, we think investors came to understand that materials pricing really wasnt an issue, and the stock snapped back in the first quarter.
Among the Funds detractors in the first quarter, the two largest were medical-technology
companies Neuronetics, Inc. and Ra Medical Systems, Inc. Neuronetics develops devices to treat psychiatric disorders and has seen strong organic growth. The stocks decline may have been a reflection of investors wariness about a new
competitor in Neuronetics space, but so far we havent seen competitive forces impacting the business.
Ra Medical is a newly
public company that missed its sales forecast right out of the chute. The company designs and markets lasers and catheters used to treat skin and cardiovascular diseases. What appeared to hold back Ra Medicals product success, and hurt
revenues in the fourth quarter of 2018, was the need to hire qualified sales personnel and improve training for the entire sales team to ensure that doctors are comfortable using the companys innovative devices. Ra Medicals management
believes that the newly hired chief commercial officer will alleviate the sales-force hiring and training issues.
Finally, the Funds
position in Sangamo Therapeutics, Inc. was down for the quarter. A clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, Sangamo specializes in the treatment and cure of gene disorders. Investors reacted negatively to interim results from an early-stage
study using the companys zinc-finger editing technology for the treatment of Hurler syndrome. However, we think its too early to draw conclusions until results from the studys high-dose
subjects have been released.
OUTLOOK
International stocks have lagged those in the U.S. over the last several years and now appear quite undervalued. While the Funds
international holdings have also lagged, the businesses themselves have performed quite well. As a result, we believe the Funds international stocks will eventually play catch-up to their U.S.
counterparts. We continue to manage down the Funds exposure to international industrial activity, which is slowing.
With the Fed
softening its policy stance and with the release of strong corporate earnings reports, the U.S. equity market has swung from extreme pessimism in the fourth quarter of 2018 to seemingly boundless optimism so far in 2019. This upward spike in
sentiment appears to have generated considerable changes in appetite for investment risk and increased valuations. Given historical patterns following strong market rallies, we wouldnt be surprised to see stocks pause over the next several
months. For the rally to continue throughout 2019, we believe well need to see a more complete resolution of the U.S.-China trade disagreement.
As always, well continue doing what we believe we do best and that is using our bottom-up
research process to find outstanding micro-cap companies with the potential to contribute to the Funds long-term performance.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

OVERVIEW
Stocks bounced back in the first quarter of 2019. The Wasatch Small Cap Growth Fund Investor Class gained 20.49% and
outpaced the 17.14% return of its primary benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index. The Fund also outperformed the Russell 2000 Index, which was up 14.58%.
The U.S. economy has continued to demonstrate some resilience in the face of slowing global growth and a backdrop of political uncertainty.
Nevertheless, a downward revision of fourth-quarter U.S. gross domestic product growth and a forecast of only about 1.5% growth in the first quarter have lowered the economic bar for calendar 2019. The good news is that the U.S. economy is at least
slowing from a solid position.
During the first quarter, the information-technology sector delivered the best returns for both the Fund
and the Russell 2000 Growth Index. This wasnt surprising to us given that businesses are increasingly turning to technology to make their operations more efficient in an environment of slower growth, increasing competition and a tight labor
market. The Fund benefited relative to the benchmark from excellent stock selection and an overweight allocation in information technology.
Notwithstanding the above comments, the macro environment is not our main focus. One good way to describe our investment approach is that
were macro-aware rather than macro-driven. We spend the overwhelming majority of our time kicking the tires of high-quality companies and analyzing their fundamentals. Moreover, when we remain impressed by the operating
performance and valuation of our companies, we dont buy and sell just for the sake of showing activity in the Fund.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
The top contributor to performance for the first quarter was Euronet Worldwide, Inc., an electronic-payments business that operates ATMs,
traditional point-of-sale (POS) terminals, prepaid POS terminals and money-transfer networks. The company reported significant increases in operating income and adjusted
earnings per share. As is often the case with stronger-than-expected numbers, Euronets stock
price soared after the report. We continue to be impressed with the companys operating discipline as 2018 was the sixth consecutive year that management delivered
double-digit growth in adjusted earnings per share.
Paylocity Holding Corp. also boosted Fund performance. The company provides software
for payroll and human-capital management. Paylocity saw its stock price rise after a competitor agreed to be acquired at a premium by a private-equity firm. Incidentally, we also owned that competitor Ultimate Software Group, Inc.
We think Paylocity now stands to benefit as Ultimate adjusts to the influences of its new owners.
The largest detractor from Fund
performance was Metro Bank plc, one of the so-called challenger banks established in the U.K. after the global financial crisis. Despite Metros rapid growth, the stock plunged in January
after the bank disclosed that it had applied an incorrectly low risk weighting to parts of its loan book. The stock fell again in February on news that Metro will have to raise additional equity in order to put more capital behind the misclassified
loans. The bank now faces the prospect of having to issue stock at prices that are highly dilutive to the ownership stakes of existing shareholders.
Healthcare Services Group, Inc. (HCSG) was also a significant detractor. HCSG provides outsourced housekeeping and nutritional services for
hospitals, nursing homes and other health-care institutions. HCSG shares fell sharply in early March after the company disclosed that it would file its 2018 10-K report 15 days late. Management revealed that
the company had received a letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission in November 2017 seeking information about the way HCSG calculates and reports its earnings per share. We continue to monitor the situation for further developments.
OUTLOOK
Were always aware of macro events but they dont play major roles in our time-tested, fundamental investment approach. Our fixation
is on vigorously analyzing micro events that occur at the company-specific level. And while were never really just standing still at Wasatch (theres always another company to research), the first quarter of 2019 was
particularly quiet from a trading perspective. This was because the companies we owned were mostly delivering the operating results we had expected.
But we also had a few disappointments like Metro Bank and Healthcare Services Group that are currently under our research microscope. Having
said that, our other holdings more than compensated for our disappointments.
In short, we remain as confident as ever that the Wasatch
Small Cap Growth Fund currently owns a group of high-quality companies that will grow their top and bottom lines significantly over the coming years. This is exactly the positioning we want to have over the long term and also during
whatever comes next.

Management Discussion
The Wasatch Small Cap Value Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by
Jim Larkins.

OVERVIEW
U.S equities rebounded from 2018s poor finish to register one of their best quarters of the post-financial crisis era. Investors were
encouraged by stabilizing domestic growth data, signs that the United States and China were working to resolve their trade dispute, and indications that the U.S. Federal Reserve was unlikely to raise interest rates again in 2019. These factors
helped the benchmark Russell 2000 |
Value Index to gain 11.93%.
The Wasatch Small Cap Value Fund Investor Class gained 11.67%, a return in line with that of the benchmark. We view this as a
positive result given that we outperformed when the market posted a double-digit loss in the fourth quarter of 2018 an indication that our stock-selection process may have helped to mitigate the downside and allowed the Fund to
participate in the subsequent rally. We believe this favorable risk/return profile reflects our emphasis on higher-quality, fundamentally sound and financially strong companies.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
The vast majority of the Funds holdings delivered positive returns in the first quarter. Several top contributors illustrate key elements
of our strategy and process, including the role of patience in value investing. In many cases, it takes some time for an investment thesis to play out and there are often bumps along the way. However, well generally stay invested in an
underperforming holding as long as the fundamental story remains intact. An example is truckload company Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings, Inc., which lagged in 2018 as the company worked to integrate a large acquisition. We thought the
selloff in Knight-Swifts shares was greatly exaggerated given the companys history of strong execution. In the first quarter, management announced strong results and boosted its 2019 earnings outlook, and Knight-Swifts stock
regained most of the lost ground.
Another top contributor, Sleep Number Corp. provides an excellent example of our unique Fallen Angel
discipline. Fallen Angel is the term we use to describe a high-quality company with an outstanding business model whose shares have descended into value territory due to short-term factors. In 2017, we built up a meaningful position in
Sleep Number after a stretch of weakness on the belief that the companys efforts to transform its mattress business were not fully reflected in its earnings. Investors have begun to take notice of the companys fundamental changes. Sleep
Numbers stock gained over 40% in the first quarter.
The Fund typically has low exposure to the materials and energy sectors.
Thats because we would rather not allocate capital to companies whose fortunes are tied to commodity prices. When we do invest in these areas, we tend to favor
businesses that have more control over their own destinies. One such business is Innospec, Inc., a materials company with a suite of specialty chemicals that can perform independently of the
generic commodity cycle. We invested in Innospec based on its good cash flow, multiple products and modest growth story. Innospec was one of the top contributors to Fund performance in the quarter.
Despite having many winners, the Fund gave back some ground through weakness in a handful of individual stocks. Among the largest detractors
were Stamps.com, Inc., Atlas Financial Holdings, Inc. and Cimpress N.V. Stamps.com announced the end of an exclusive agreement with the U.S. Postal Service and the stock slumped. As portfolio managers, one of our most important tasks is to determine
whether to keep an underperforming position, or whether fundamental deterioration indicates that a stock may have become a value trap. We chose to hold Stamps.com because we think the company may now be in a better position to take
advantage of other growth opportunities. We also like its potential for international expansion and ability to capitalize on the growth of e-commerce. With that said, were closely monitoring
developments.
In contrast, we sold our position in Atlas Financial, a commercial auto insurer, because the company announced it
would need to increase its reserves to cover previous losses.
U.S.-listed, Dutch-domiciled Cimpress, a mass-market
customization printed-materials provider, reported surprisingly disappointing results across its business lines, owing in part to increasing competitive pressures. We reduced our position during the quarter in recognition of this risk, but our
long experience with the company reminds us that Cimpress has overcome headwinds before. Well continue to monitor results.
OUTLOOK AND POSITIONING
Our portfolio activity was relatively light over the past three months, with the only notable changes involving shifts within the financials
sector. Weve been underweight in financials for quite some time, but recent volatility gave us the chance to compare our holdings with other opportunities. As part of this process, we sold three underperforming banks and one real estate
investment trust, as we believe these companies may continue to face headwinds. We redeployed some of the sales proceeds into financial companies that we believe have better long-term prospects.
From a broader standpoint, we view the volatility of the past six months as a positive development since rapid market movements often create a
wider range of opportunities for us to put our Fallen Angel strategy to work. We believe our focus on high-quality companies with recurring revenues, deeply entrenched customer bases, and limited competition continues to provide the foundation for
competitive performance in both up and down markets.

Management Discussion
The Wasatch Ultra Growth Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by John
Malooly.

OVERVIEW
The Wasatch Ultra Growth Fund gained 18.90% during the first quarter of 2019 and outpaced its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index,
which rose 17.14%. Equity prices moved higher amid signs of easier U.S. monetary policy and hopes for a speedy resolution to the U.S.-China trade dispute. On the economic front, data released during the quarter showed a slowing U.S. economy leading
Federal Reserve |
officials to signal no interest-rate hikes this year.
As bottom-up investors, we dont make macroeconomic or political forecasts. Instead, we take
events and data as they come, factoring them into our assessments of individual companies and industry exposures. We continually reassess the near-term risks and earnings profiles of our companies as they relate to macro issues such as their trade
exposure to China. Generally speaking, corporate earnings face more difficult year-over-year comparisons in 2019 after benefiting from a tax cut last year.
With the economic outlook appearing more uncertain, growth stocks outperformed value stocks during the first quarter. A mainstay for growth
investors, information-technology (IT) led the advance in equities. The Funds IT stocks outgained the IT positions in the benchmark, and our overweight position was a tailwind to performance. Consumer discretionary was another source of
strength relative to the benchmark driven by the strong performance of our holdings across the sector and outsized gains in a few individual holdings.
DETAILS OF THE QUARTER
The strongest
contributor to Fund performance for the first quarter was Paylocity Holding Corp. The company provides software for payroll and human-capital management using the Software-as-a-Service business model. Paylocity saw its stock price rise after a competitor agreed to be acquired at a premium by a private investor group. Incidentally, we also owned the competitor
that was acquired Ultimate Software Group, Inc. We think Paylocity stands to benefit as Ultimate adjusts to the influences of its new owners. For Paylocity, better-than-expected revenues, earnings and forward guidance also
helped push its stock higher during the quarter.
Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. was the second-best contributor. The company
offers insulin-delivery systems for people with diabetes. Shares of Tandem jumped in February on better-than-expected quarterly results and strong guidance for 2019. Total pump shipments surged 133% versus the
year-ago quarter, sending revenues 89% higher and pushing earnings into the black sooner than analysts had been expecting.
The greatest detractor from Fund performance for the quarter was Metro Bank plc. One of the so-called
challenger banks established in the U.K. after the financial crisis, Metro
is noted for outstanding customer experience. In January, the bank disclosed that it had applied an incorrectly low risk weighting to parts of its loan book. In February, Metro revealed that it
would have to raise additional equity in order to put more capital behind the misclassified loans. The bank now faces the prospect of having to issue stock at prices that are highly dilutive to the ownership stakes of existing shareholders. Events
at Metro Bank have raised concerns about the banks internal controls and managements shifting account as to how the errors were discovered hasnt soothed investors. We continue to hold the stock at a low weight but
are watching developments closely.
The Funds second-largest detractor was Sangamo Therapeutics, Inc. A clinical-stage
biopharmaceutical company, Sangamo specializes in the treatment and cure of single-gene disorders. Investors reacted negatively in February to interim results from an early-stage study using the companys
zinc-finger gene-editing technology for the treatment of Hurler syndrome. However, we think its too early to draw conclusions until results from the studys high-dose subjects have been released.
Healthcare Services Group, Inc. (HCSG) was also a significant detractor. HCSG provides outsourced housekeeping and nutritional
services for hospitals, nursing homes and other health-care institutions. HCSG shares fell sharply in early March after the company disclosed that it would file its 2018 10-K report 15 days late. Management
revealed the company had received a letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission in November 2017 seeking information about the way HCSG calculates and reports its earnings per share. The company also disclosed it received a subpoena from the
commission concerning the matter in March 2018. With little else to go on, investors assumed the worst and sold the stock. We continue to monitor the situation for further developments.
OUTLOOK
One of the main principles behind the Wasatch investment approach is the thesis that in the long run, earnings drive stock prices. Simply put,
we believe companies that can compound their earnings at favorable rates over time will generate attractive long-term investment returns. Even so, fluctuations in expectations can have an outsized impact over shorter periods. We think the currently
high levels of uncertainty provide good reason for investors to be cautious.
Regardless of the near-term outlook, our disciplined
investment approach keeps us squarely focused on the growth prospects of individual businesses over long periods of time. We look for dynamic, innovative companies that can take market share and grow even in unfavorable economic environments.
Interestingly, those types of companies tend to be the ones investors seek most during an economic downturn. While the current investment environment demands modest expectations for short-term returns, we believe our investment approach retains its
appeal over appropriately longer horizons.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

OVERVIEW
U.S. Treasury bond yields decreased in the first calendar quarter of 2019 after increasing for much of 2018. The
30-year Treasury bond yield declined to 2.81% down from 3.02% at the end of 2018. Fiscal-policy actions, which stimulated gross domestic product (GDP) growth early last year, proved to be fleeting. By late
2018, that stimulus was almost impossible to detect in the broad economic aggregates.
DETAILS OF
THE PERIOD
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Wasatch-Hoisington U.S. Treasury
Fund gained 5.37%, while the benchmark Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index only rose 2.94%. For the 12-months ended March 31, 2019, the Fund gained 5.85%, outperforming the Index, which increased
4.48%.
OUTLOOK FOR THE YEAR
The slowdown in U.S. economic activity that started in 2018 has continued into 2019, as confirmed by deteriorating indicators in cyclical
bellwether sectors autos, housing and capital spending and broad economic aggregates. This has been acknowledged by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) and recognized in the market, as revealed by declining
yields in high-grade money and bond markets. These developments reflect the unfolding of two major economic theorems. First, federal-debt accelerations ultimately lead to lower, not higher, interest rates. Debt-funded traditional fiscal stimulus is
extremely fleeting when debt levels are already inordinately high. Thus, additional and large deficits provide only transitory gains in economic activity, which are quickly followed by weaker business conditions. With slower economic growth and
inflation, long-term rates inevitably fall. Second, monetary decelerations eventually lead to lower, not higher, interest rates as originally theorized by economist Milton Friedman.
In the past 20 years, gross government debt as a percentage of GDP advanced dramatically in all major economic areas of the world, yet
long-term government bond yields dropped sharply in these areas. This result contradicts the view that the supply of government debt determines long-term risk-free yields. In microeconomic models and standard supply/demand analysis, increasing the
issuance of debt could push yields higher. Quite possibly in the short run, heavy issuance
of government debt has this presumed effect, but it is not the ultimate determinant of long-term risk-free rates.
The Fisher equation (i=r+ pe)
defines the long-term risk-free rate as being equal to the real rate plus expected inflation. This means that any short-run increase in yields caused by greater supply is eventually reversed by deteriorating
economic and inflation fundamentals. Undoubtedly, government debt will rise sharply relative to GDP over the next several years. This increased debt level will weaken economic activity, thus inflation, pushing long-term yields lower, thereby
continuing the now almost three-decade-long trend toward lower long-term Treasury yields.
Irving Fishers equation of exchange
(M2*V=GDP) states that money times its turnover (velocity) is equal to nominal GDP. The Federal Reserve (Fed) has virtually no control over the velocity of money, but it can influence the monetary and credit aggregates. The Feds actions
over the past four years fit a pattern that has many precedents in economic history. The reserve aggregates, such as the monetary base and excess reserves, peaked in the summer of 2014. The federal-funds rate has been raised nine times since
December 2015. The year-over-year growth in M2 and bank credit peaked in October 2016 and then decelerated sharply thereafter. Meanwhile, the velocity of money fell sharply. Also, symptomatic of the monetary restraint, the yield curve flattened
dramatically, with parts of the curve inverting. Moreover, the fall in the monetary base resulted in an unprecedented contraction in world dollar liquidity that led to monetary decelerations in Europe, Japan and China and from there to a
synchronized global economic slowdown.
The Fed appears to have a high sensitivity to coincident or contemporaneous indicators of economic
activity, however, the economic variables (i.e., money and interest rates) over which it has influence are slow moving and have enormous lags. In the most recent episode, in the last half of 2018, the Fed raised interest rates twice in reaction to
strong mid-year GDP numbers. These actions were taken despite the fact that the results of the Feds previous rate hikes and monetary deceleration were beginning to show that they were actually slowing
economic growth. It appears that history is being repeated too tight for too long, slower growth, lower rates.
As a
result of these considerations, we conclude that the Funds investments in long-term U.S. Treasury securities are appropriate.

Brexit is an abbreviation for British exit, which refers to the June 23,
2016 referendum whereby British citizens voted to exit the European Union. The referendum roiled global markets, including currencies, causing the British pound to fall to its lowest level in decades.
China A-shares, along with B-shares, are sold on
mainland Chinas two stock exchanges, which are in Shanghai and Shenzhen. The key difference between A-shares and B-shares is that
A-shares are denominated in mainland Chinas currency, the renminbi, and B-shares are denominated in foreign currency (U.S. dollars in Shanghai and Hong Kong
dollars in Shenzhen).
The cloud is the internet. Cloud-computing is a model for delivering information-technology
services in which resources are retrieved from the internet through web-based tools and applications, rather than from a direct connection to a server.
The U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI), also called the
cost-of-living index, is an inflationary indicator that measures the change in the cost of a fixed basket of products and services, including housing, electricity, food,
and transportation. The CPI is published monthly. The headline CPI includes volatile food and energy prices, while the core CPI excludes food and energy.
A credit aggregate measures the stock of bank loans outstanding at a point in time.
Earnings growth is a measure of growth in a companys net income over a specific period, often one year.
Earnings per share or EPS is the portion of a companys profit allocated to each outstanding share of common stock. EPS growth
rates help investors identify companies that are increasing or decreasing in profitability.
The federal-funds rate is the interest
rate at which private depository institutions (mostly banks) lend balances (federal funds) at the Federal Reserve to other depository institutions, usually overnight. It is the interest rate banks charge each other for loans.
The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), a component of the Federal Reserve System, is charged under United States law with overseeing
the nations open market operations. Open market operations are the means of implementing monetary policy by which a central bank controls the short-term interest rate and the supply of base money in an economy, and thus indirectly the total
money supply.
The global financial crisis, also known as the financial crisis of 2007-09
and 2008 financial crisis, is considered by many economists to have been the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression of the 1930s.

foreign banks and official institutions and IRA and Keogh balances owned by consumers.
A monetary aggregate measures the stock of money outstanding within an economy at a point
in time.
The monetary base is the total amount of a currency that is either circulated in the hands of the public or in the
commercial bank deposits held in the central banks reserves. This measure of the money supply typically only includes the most liquid currencies.
OPEC is an acronym for the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries. OPEC was founded in 1960. It is a collective of countries that
export large amounts of petroleum and was formed to establish oil-exporting policies and set prices.
Real gross domestic product (GDP) is a macroeconomic measure of the value of economic output adjusted for price changes (i.e., inflation
or deflation). This adjustment transforms the money-value measure, nominal GDP, into an index for quantity of total output.
Return on
equity (ROE) measures a companys efficiency at generating profits from shareholders equity.
The Shanghai Stock
Exchange is the largest stock exchange in mainland China. It is a non-profit organization run by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC).

Valuation is the process of determining the current worth of an asset or
company.
The velocity of money (V) is defined as the rate at which money circulates, changes hands or turns over in an
economy.
The yield curve is a line on a graph that plots the interest rates, at a set point in time, of bonds having equal credit
quality, but differing maturity dates. The most frequently reported yield curve compares three-month, two-year, five-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury securities. This
yield curve is used as a benchmark for other interest rates, such as mortgage rates or bank lending rates. The curve is also used to predict changes in economic output and growth.

Operating Expenses (UNAUDITED)
EXPENSE EXAMPLE
As a shareholder of Wasatch Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees and (2) ongoing
costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Wasatch Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual
funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period
ended March 31, 2019.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line of the table on the next page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses, based upon the actual total
return of the fund during the most recent six-month period ended March 31, 2019. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by
$1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 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.
In addition, the Funds charge a $12.50 IRA annual maintenance fee and a $15.00 fee for redemptions paid
by wire. To the extent these fees apply to your account, your expenses paid during the period would be higher and your ending account value would be lower than the amounts shown in the table on the next page.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line of the table on the next page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses
based on a funds actual expense ratio and
an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the funds 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 a Wasatch Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples
that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
In addition, the Funds charge a $12.50 IRA annual maintenance fee and a $15.00 fee
for redemptions paid by wire. To the extent these fees apply to your account, your expenses paid during the period would be higher and your ending account value would be lower than the amounts shown in the table on the next page. If another
funds fees differ from those listed above, your expenses paid and your ending account value could be higher or lower than those 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 redemption fees. Therefore, the second line of 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.
A Funds annualized expense ratio may vary as a result of various factors including expenses that
are not reimbursable under the contractual agreement between the Fund and the Advisor such as interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, other investment related costs, dividend expense on short sales, and extraordinary expenses.

Global Value, International Growth, International Opportunities, Micro Cap, Micro Cap Value, Small Cap Growth, Small Cap Value and Ultra Growth Funds are referred to herein as the Equity Funds.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant policies related to investments of the Funds held at March 31, 2019. These policies are in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).
Valuation of
Securities All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value as described in Note 12.
Foreign Currency Translations Values of investments denominated in foreign currencies are converted into U.S.
dollars using the current exchange rates each business day (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time). Purchases and sales of investments and dividend income are translated into U.S. dollars using the current prevailing exchange rate on the
transaction date. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on realized and unrealized gains or losses on securities is reflected as a component of such gains or losses. Transactions in
foreign denominated assets may involve greater risks than domestic transactions.
Investment in Securities and Related Investment
Income Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains or losses on securities sold are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date except that certain dividends from foreign securities may be recorded after the ex-dividend date based on when the Fund is informed of the dividend. Interest
income and estimated expenses are accrued daily. Bond discount and premiums are amortized using the interest method. To the extent dividends received include return of capital or capital gain distributions, such distributions are recorded as a
reduction to cost of the related security or as realized gain or loss.
Expenses The Funds contract for
various services on a collective basis. Most expenses are directly attributable to each Fund and therefore are charged accordingly. Expenses that are not directly attributable to one or more Funds are allocated among applicable Funds on an equitable
and consistent basis considering such things as the nature and type of expense and the relative net assets of the Funds.
Use of
Management 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 at the date of the
financial statements and the reported changes in net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety
of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and/or their affiliates that have not yet
occurred. Based on experience, however, the risk of loss is expected to be remote.
Redemption Fees The
Funds deduct a fee of 2.00% from redemption proceeds on shares of the Funds held 60 days or less. Redemption fees retained by the Funds are credited to additional paid-in capital.
New Accounting Pronouncements In October 2018, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission adopted amendments to
certain disclosure requirements that had become redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded, in light of the other Commission disclosure requirements, GAAP or changes in the information environment. The compliance date
for the amendments to Regulation S-X is November 5, 2018 (for reporting period end dates of September 30, 2018 or after). Management has evaluated the impact of the amendments and determined the
effect on the financial statements of adopting the simplification rules will be limited to a change in disclosures at March 31, 2019.
Other Income, expenses, and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are generally allocated to each
91
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
class of shares based on its relative net assets, except that each class separately bears expenses related
specifically to that class, such as certain shareholder servicing fees.
3. SECURITIES AND
OTHER INVESTMENTS
Repurchase Agreements The Funds may engage in
repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, a fund takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase and the fund to resell the obligation at an agreed upon price
and time. The market value of the collateral must be at least equal at all times to the total amount of the repurchase obligation, including interest. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the fund has the right to use the collateral to
offset losses incurred.
Short Sales The Equity Funds may enter into short sales whereby a fund sells a security it
generally does not own (the security is borrowed), in anticipation of a decline in the securitys price. The initial amount of a short sale is recorded as a liability which is
marked-to-market daily. Fluctuations in the value of the short liability are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. If a Fund shorts a security when also holding a long
position in the security (a short against the box), as the securitys price declines, the short position increases in value, offsetting the long positions decrease in value. The opposite effect occurs if the securitys
price rises. A Fund realizes a gain or loss upon closing of the short sale (returning the security to the counterparty by way of purchase or delivery of a long position owned). Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from
security purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested. The Funds are liable to the buyer for any dividends payable on securities while those securities are in a short position. These dividends are an expense of the Funds. The Funds designate
collateral consisting of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid assets sufficient to collateralize the market value of short positions.
Participation Notes Certain Funds may invest in Participation Notes (P-Notes). P-Notes are promissory notes that are designed to offer a return linked to the performance of a particular underlying equity security or market. P-Notes are issued by
banks or broker-dealers and allow a fund to gain exposure to common stocks in markets in which the fund is currently not approved to directly invest, or in markets that prohibit direct investment by foreign purchasers. While the holder of a P-Note is entitled to receive from the bank or broker-dealer any dividends or other distributions paid on the underlying securities, the holder is not entitled to the same rights as an owner of the underlying
securities, such as voting rights. Income received from P-Notes is recorded as dividend income in the Statement of Operations. P-Notes are considered general unsecured
contractual obligations of the bank or broker-dealer. Risks associated with P-Notes include the possible failure of a counterparty (i.e., the issuing bank or broker-dealer) to perform in accordance with
the terms of the agreement, inability to transfer or liquidate the notes, potential delays or an inability to redeem the notes before maturity under certain market conditions, and limited legal recourse against the issuer of the underlying common
stock.
4. FINANCIAL DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Foreign Currency Contracts The Funds may enter into foreign currency contracts to settle planned
purchases or sales of securities or to protect against a possible loss resulting from an adverse change in the relationship between the U.S. dollar and a foreign currency involved in an underlying transaction. Foreign currency contracts are
agreements between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a foreign currency contract fluctuates with changes in currency exchange rates. Foreign currency contracts are marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by a fund as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When a foreign currency contract is closed, the fund
records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Schedule
of Investments. In addition, a fund could be exposed to credit risk if a counterparty is unable or unwilling to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably. In connection with these contracts, the Funds may
segregate cash and/or securities in a sufficient amount as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective contracts.
Options
Transactions The Equity Funds may buy and sell put and call options and write covered put and call options, including over-the-counter options, on
portfolio securities where the completion of the obligation is dependent upon the credit standing of another party. Options are a type of derivative financial instrument. The Funds may invest in derivative financial instruments, including options,
in order to manage risk or gain exposure to various other investments or markets. The risk in writing a call option is that a fund gives up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases. The risk in writing a put option is
that a fund may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that a fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. A fund also has the additional risk of not
being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist. Possible losses from uncovered written options may be unlimited. Option contracts are valued daily and unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded. A
fund will realize a gain or loss upon expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a written put option, or the cost of a security for a
purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. The Funds designate collateral consisting of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid assets sufficient to collateralize the market value of written options.
Refer to Note 13 (Offsetting) for more information about the offsetting of assets and liabilities.

6. FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION
It is each Funds policy to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute substantially all taxable income to shareholders. The Funds are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities for years prior to 2016. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax
positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total of amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next 12 months. Accordingly, no
provision for federal income or excise taxes has been made.
As of March 31, 2019, the cost and unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) of securities on a tax basis were as follows:

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized gains is
primarily attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, unrealized appreciation on passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), partnership adjustments and other temporary tax adjustments.
The amount and character of tax-basis distributions and composition of net assets are finalized at
fiscal year-end. Accordingly, tax basis balances have not been determined as of the date of this report.
Dividends from net investment
income and net realized gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually for all Funds, except for dividends from net investment income in two funds. The Global Value and U.S. Treasury Funds declare and pay dividends quarterly. The amount of
dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. The Funds may utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders
on redemption of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction (tax equalization).
To the extent these book and tax differences are
permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified at the end of the fiscal year among additional paid-in capital, undistributed net investment income (loss), and undistributed net realized gain (loss) on
investments, options and foreign currency translations. The reclassifications generally relate to the tax treatment of net operating losses, the netting of net operating loss to short-term gains, investments in REITs and partnerships, redemptions in-kind, distribution reclassifications, foreign capital gains taxes, Section 988 currency gains and losses, PFICs, paydown gains and losses, non-REIT return of capital
dividends and equalization. These reclassifications have no impact on the net asset values of the Funds.
Capital loss carryforwards are
available through the date specified below to offset future realized net capital gains for federal income tax purposes. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations. To the extent
future gains are offset by capital loss carryforwards, such gains will not be distributed.
Under the Regulated Investment Company
Modernization Act of 2010, a Fund will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. Post-enactment losses that are carried forward will retain their character
as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law.
Capital loss

European Union, the Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund, Global Opportunities Fund, Global Value Fund, International Growth Fund and International Opportunities Fund filed tax reclaims for previously withheld taxes on dividends earned in Finland and
Poland (EU Reclaims). These additional filings are subject to various administrative proceedings by the local jurisdictions tax authorities within the European Union, as well as a number of related judicial proceedings. Income recognized, if
any, for EU reclaims is reflected as dividend income in the Statements of Operations and related receivables, if any, are reflected as interest and dividends receivable in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. When uncertainty exists as to the
ultimate resolution of these proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these EU reclaims and the potential timing of payment, no amounts are reflected in the financial statements.
7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fees, Expense Limitations As the Funds investment advisor, the Advisor receives a monthly fee
calculated on average daily net assets. The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse certain Funds should a Funds operating expenses exceed a specified annual limitation through at least January 31, 2020. If
operating expenses are less than the specified expense limit for the Fund, the Advisor shall be entitled to recoup the fees waived or reduced to the extent that the operating expenses and the amounts reimbursed do not exceed such expense limit for
the Fund, under the period of the agreement (currently through January 31, 2020). The Funds may only make repayments to the Advisor for the amounts reimbursed if such repayment does not cause the Funds expense ratio, after repayment is
take into account, to exceed both (i) the expense cap at the time such amounts were waived; and (ii) the Funds current expense cap. All amounts not recovered at the end of the period expire on January 31, 2020. Shareholder
expenses will increase if the Advisor does not renew the contractual expense cap after its expiration date. Ordinary operating expenses exclude any interest, dividend expense on short sales/interest expense, taxes, brokerage commissions, other
investment-related costs and extraordinary expenses, such as litigation and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Funds business. The Wasatch Funds Board of Trustees determined that the costs of the Proxy Statement
related to the identification and shareholder approval of Trustee Nominees were extraordinary expenses. Investment advisory fees and fees waived, if any, for the six months ended March 31, 2019 are disclosed in the Statements of Operations.
Investment advisory fee and expense limitation annual rates are shown below.

Affiliated Trades Certain Funds are permitted to purchase or sell securities from or
to certain related affiliated funds under specified conditions outlined in the procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees (the Board). The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities by the Funds from
or to another fund (or funds) that are, or could be, considered an affiliate by virtue of having a common investment advisor (or affiliated investment advisors), common Trustees and/or common officers complies with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Further, each transaction is effected at the current market price, as that term is defined under the procedures. During the six months ended March 31, 2019, the Funds did not engage in
purchases or sales of securities pursuant to Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
In-Kind
Transaction In April 2017, the Wasatch International Opportunities Fund had a large in-kind redemption with an affiliated person. The transaction was effected consistent with the
Funds Procedures for Effecting In-Kind Redemptions and was approved in advance by the Independent Trustees of the Wasatch Funds Trust.
Compensation Officers serve in that capacity without compensation from the Trust. Beginning in the calendar year of
2018, the Funds method of compensating Trustees is to pay each Independent Trustee a retainer of $120,000 per year for services rendered and a fee of $24,000 for each Board of Trustees meeting attended in person or telephonically. In addition,
each Independent Trustee receives a fee of $24,000 for attendance at an executive session held with respect to the contract renewal process for the Funds. In addition, the Chairman of the Board receives an additional fee of $30,000 a year as
Chairman and $6,000 for attendance in person or telephonically at a Board meeting; the Chairman of the Audit Committee and the Chairman of the Nominating Committee each receive an additional $18,000 per year as Chairman and $3,600 for attendance in
person or telephonically at a Board meeting. Additionally, each Independent Trustee is entitled to reimbursement of expenses related to his or her duties as a Trustee of the Funds.
Payments by Advisor During the 2014 fiscal year, the Advisor paid certain audit, legal and/or printing fees of the Core
Growth, Emerging Markets Small Cap, Global Value, Small Cap Growth and Small Cap Value Funds. The Advisor does not intend to be reimbursed for these amounts.
On October 16, 2014, the Advisor discovered a trade error involving the Ultra Growth Fund. The Advisor reimbursed the Fund $12,267. On
August 2, 2016, the Advisor discovered a trade error involving the Small Cap Growth Fund. The Advisor reimbursed the Fund $12,890.
During 2018, the Advisor paid for a portion of the expenses in connection with the merger of the Long/Short and Global Value Funds.
The impact of the payments detailed above is reflected in the net expense ratios in the Financial Highlights.
Payments by Sub-Advisor In June 2016, the Funds filed a proxy statement with
the Securities and Exchange Commission to inform shareholders about a Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Wasatch-Hoisington U.S. Treasury Fund. The purpose of the Shareholder Meeting was to ask shareholders to approve a new Sub-Advisory Agreement between Wasatch Advisors, Inc. and Hoisington Investment Management Company (HIMCO) with respect to the Wasatch-Hoisington U.S. Treasury Fund. HIMCO, the
Sub-Advisor for the Fund, reimbursed the Wasatch-Hoisington U.S. Treasury Fund for the costs associated with the proxy statement filing. The Sub-Advisor does not intend
to be reimbursed for this amount.
Transfer Agent Intermediary Fees Reimbursed to the Advisor Each Fund paid fees
to, and reimbursed certain out-of-pocket expenses of, the Funds transfer agent during the period. In addition, the Advisor and the Funds distributor have
entered into selling dealer agreements and service agreements with certain financial services companies, broker-dealers, banks, advisors, retirement service providers or other authorized agents or organizations (each an Intermediary,
together, Intermediaries) to accept purchase, exchange and redemption orders on the Funds behalf. For Investor Class shares of the Funds, some Intermediaries do not charge investors a direct transaction fee, but instead charge
a fee for accounting and shareholder services that the agent provided to Fund shareholders on the Funds behalf. Those services typically included recordkeeping, transaction processing for shareholders accounts, communication of tax
information, income distribution and other services. Generally, the fee was either a per account charge based on the number of accounts to which the Intermediary provided such services, or was a percentage (as of March 31, 2019 up to 0.40%
annually) of the average value of Fund Investor Class shares held in such accounts. The Advisor paid the Intermediary fees and the Funds reimbursed the Advisor for the portion of such fees, which is intended to compensate the Intermediary for
provision of services of the type that would be provided by the Funds transfer agent or other service providers if the shares were registered on the books of the Funds transfer agent. Institutional Class shares of the Funds do not
reimburse the Advisor for payments to Intermediaries. The Funds reimbursement of expenses incurred for services provided by Intermediaries are included in Shareholder servicing fees Investor Class in the Statements
of Operations.
Custodian Out-of-Pocket Expense
Reimbursement In September 2016, State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSB), the Funds custodian, provided each Fund with an offer to reimburse the Fund for certain out-of-pocket expenses it charged the Fund between 2003 and 2015. The incorrect charges were due to inaccurate billing rates used by SSB for certain out-of-pocket expenses. SSB made the reimbursements in May 2017.

10. LINE OF CREDIT
Effective May 17, 2018, the Funds in the Trust renewed and amended agreements for two open lines of credit totaling $300,000,000, one of
which is $100,000,000 committed, and the other of which is $200,000,000 uncommitted, with State Street Bank and Trust Company (together, the Line). The agreements, as amended, have no change in the committed, uncommitted and total
amounts available on the Line. The Funds incur commitment fees on the undrawn portion of the committed part of the Line, and interest expense to the extent of amounts drawn (borrowed) under the entire Line. Interest is based on the higher of
(a) the overnight federal-funds rate in effect on the date of borrowing, plus a margin, or (b) the daily 1-Month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) in effect on the date of borrowing, plus a
margin. Commitment fees are pro-rated among the Funds based upon relative average net assets. Interest expense is charged directly to a Fund based upon actual amounts borrowed by that Fund.
For the six months ended March 31, 2019, the following Funds had borrowings:

11. PRINCIPAL RISKS
Market and Credit Risk In the normal course of business the Funds trade financial instruments and enter
into financial transactions where risk of loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk) or the failure of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit risk). Similar to credit risk, the Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, or
the risk that an institution or other entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions will default. The potential loss could exceed the value of the financial assets recorded in the financial statements. Financial assets, which
potentially expose the Funds to credit risk, consist principally of cash due from counterparties and investments. The extent of the Funds exposure to credit and counterparty risks with respect to these financial assets approximates their
carrying value as recorded in the Funds Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation Risk Inflation risk
is the possibility that inflation will reduce the purchasing power of a currency, and subsequently reduce the value of a security or asset, and may result in rising interest rates. Inflation is the overall upward price movement of goods and services
in an economy that causes the value of a currency to decline.
Interest Rate Risk Interest rate
risk is the risk that fixed-income securities will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. A rise in interest rates typically causes a fall in values. Interest rate risk should be modest for shorter-term securities, moderate for
intermediate-term securities and high for longer-term securities. Generally, an increase in the average maturity of a fund will make it more sensitive to interest rate risk. The interest rate is the amount charged, expressed as a percentage of
principal, by a lender to a borrower for the use of assets.
Foreign Currency Risk If a fund invests directly in
foreign currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, foreign currencies, or in derivatives that provide exposure to foreign currencies, it will be subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the
U.S. dollar. This also includes the risk associated with higher transaction costs, delayed settlements, currency controls and adverse economic developments related to foreign investments.
Region Risk The Funds, except the U.S. Treasury Fund, invest in equity and fixed-income securities of non-U.S. issuers. Because certain foreign markets are illiquid, market prices may not necessarily represent realizable value. Although the Funds maintain diversified investment portfolios, political or economic
developments within a particular country or region may have an adverse effect on the ability of domiciled issuers to meet their obligations. These risks are exaggerated for securities of issuers tied economically to emerging and
frontier market countries. Additionally, political or economic developments may have an adverse effect on the liquidity and volatility of portfolio securities and currency holdings. For example,
after the date of this report, there has been significant political upheaval in Zimbabwe, and as a result the Pricing Committee has applied a discount to the Zimbabwe assets held by the Frontier Emerging Small Countries Fund. This discount is
included in the change in unrealized gain/(loss).
India Region Risk The securities markets in the India region
(India, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka) are substantially smaller, less liquid and more volatile than the major securities markets in the United States and the securities industries in these countries are comparatively underdeveloped. Financial
intermediaries may not perform as well as their counterparts in the United States or in other countries with more developed securities markets. In some cases, physical delivery of securities in small lots has been required in India and shortages of
vault capacity and trained personnel have existed among qualified custodial Indian banks. A fund may be unable to sell securities when the registration process is incomplete and may experience delays in receipt of dividends. If trading volume is
limited by operational difficulties, the ability of the fund to invest may be impaired and the funds ability to buy or sell Indian securities may be impaired if the funds ability to transact is denied, delayed, suspended or not renewed
by local regulators. In recent years, exchange-listed companies in the information technology sector and related industries (such as software) have grown so as to represent a significant portion of the total capitalization of the Indian market. The
value of these companies will generally fluctuate in response to technological and regulatory developments. In addition, governmental actions can have a significant effect on economic conditions in the India region, which could adversely affect the
value and liquidity of investments. Although the governments of India, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka have recently begun to institute economic reform policies, there can be no assurance that they will continue to pursue such policies or, if
they do, that such policies will succeed. The region is an uncertain tax environment and it is difficult to know and predict the potential implications of future tax developments. Religious, cultural and military disputes persist in India, and
between India and Pakistan (as well as sectarian groups within each country). The longstanding border dispute with Pakistan remains unresolved. In recent years, terrorists believed to be based in Pakistan struck Mumbai (Indias financial
capital), further damaging relations between the two countries. If the Indian government is unable to control the violence and disruption associated
99
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
with these tensions (including both domestic and external sources of terrorism), the result may be military
conflict, which could destabilize the economy of India. Both India and Pakistan have tested nuclear arms, and the threat of deployment of such weapons could hinder development of the Indian economy, and escalating tensions could impact the broader
region, including China.
Liquidity Risk The trading market for a particular security may be less liquid than it
appears and market prices may not represent realizable value. This may be likely when a fund has a proportionately large investment in securities with small market capitalizations or securities in foreign markets that trade infrequently. Reduced
liquidity will have an adverse impact on a funds ability to sell such securities quickly at the currently marked price if necessary to meet redemptions.
Shareholder Concentration Risk A significant portion of the net assets of the Frontier Emerging Small Countries Fund is
owned by a group of shareholders advised by a common investment advisor. The Emerging Markets Select Fund also has a significant portion of net assets concentrated in relatively few related accounts. In the event of significant redemption activity
by these shareholders, the Funds could experience a loss when selling portfolio securities to meet such redemption requests. The Funds could be forced to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable prices in an effort to generate sufficient cash to pay
redeeming shareholders. Fund expenses may increase and performance may be materially affected.
12. FAIR
VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND INVESTMENTS
The fair value of a financial
instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Funds use various methods to measure the fair value of their
investments on a recurring basis. U.S. GAAP established 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. The inputs may include quoted prices for
the identical investment on an inactive market, prices for similar investments, 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 a 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.
Equity
Securities (common and preferred stock) Securities are valued as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on the valuation date. Equity securities and listed warrants are
valued using a commercial pricing service at the last quoted sales price taken from the primary market in which each security trades and, with respect to equity securities traded on the National Association of Securities Dealer Automated Quotation
(NASDAQ) system, such securities are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (NOCP) or last sales price if no NOCP is available. If there are no sales on the primary exchange or market on a day, then the security shall
be valued at the mean of the last bid and ask price on the primary exchange or market as provided by a pricing service. If the mean cannot be calculated or there is no trade activity on a day, then the security shall be valued at the previous
trading days price as provided by a pricing service. In some instances, particularly on foreign exchanges, an official close or evaluated price may be used if the pricing service is unable to provide the last trade or most recent mean
price. To the extent that these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Additionally, a funds investments are valued at fair value by the
Pricing Committee if the Advisor determines that an event impacting the value of an investment occurred between the closing time of a securitys primary market or exchange (for example, a foreign exchange or market) and the time the funds
share price is calculated. Significant events include, but are not limited to the following: significant fluctuations in domestic markets, foreign markets or foreign currencies; occurrences not directly tied to the securities markets such as natural
disasters, armed conflicts or significant governmental actions; and major announcements affecting a single issuer or an entire market or market sector. In responding to a significant event, the Pricing Committee determines the fair value of affected
securities by considering factors including, but not limited to: index options and futures traded subsequent to the close; American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) or other related receipts;
currency spot or forward markets that trade after pricing of the foreign exchange; other derivative securities traded after the close such as Standard & Poors Depositary Receipts (SPDRs) and other exchange-traded funds
(ETFs); and alternative market quotes on the affected securities. When applicable, the Funds use a systematic fair valuation model provided by an independent third party to assist in adjusting the valuation of foreign securities. When a
Fund uses this fair value pricing method, the values assigned to the Funds foreign securities may not be the quoted or published prices of the investments on their primary markets or exchanges, and the securities are categorized in
Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. These valuation procedures apply equally to long or short equity positions in a fund.

Participation Notes Investments are valued at the market price of the
underlying security. Counterparty risk is regularly reviewed and considered for valuation. To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, the values would be categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Corporate Debt Securities Investments are valued at current market value by a pricing service, or by using the last
sale or bid price based on observable inputs. Observable inputs may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and
reference data including market research publications. Although most corporate bonds are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, in instances where observable inputs are not available, they are categorized as Level 3.
Short-Term Notes Investments maturing in 60 days or less at the time of purchase, are generally valued at amortized
cost, unless it is determined that the amortized cost method would not represent fair value, in which case the securities are marked-to-market. To the extent the inputs
are observable and timely, the values would be categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Asset-Backed
Securities Investments are priced using the closing bid as supplied by a pricing service based on observable inputs. Observable inputs may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research publications, new issue data, monthly payment information and collateral performance. Although most asset-backed
securities are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, in instances where observable inputs are not available, they are categorized as Level 3.
U.S. Government Issuers Investments are priced using the closing bid as supplied by a pricing service based on
observable inputs. Observable inputs may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including
market research publications. Although most U.S. government bonds are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, in instances where observable inputs are not available, they are categorized as Level 3.
Derivative Instruments Listed derivatives that are actively traded are
valued based on quoted prices from the exchange and categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Exchange-traded options are valued at the last sale price in the market where they are principally traded. If there are no sales on the
primary exchange or market on a given day, then the option is valued at the mean of the last bid price and ask price on the primary exchange or market as provided by a pricing service. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued at the market rate
provided by the pricing service and categorized as Level 2.
Restricted Securities If market quotations are
not readily available for the Funds investments in securities such as restricted securities, private placements, securities for which trading has been halted or other illiquid securities, these investments are valued at fair value in
accordance with Board-approved Pricing Policies and Procedures by the Pricing Committee with oversight by the Board of Trustees. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in
an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. For each applicable investment that is fair valued, the Pricing Committee considers, to the extent applicable, various factors including, but
not limited to, the financial condition of the company or limited partnership, operating results, prices paid in follow-on rounds, comparable companies in the public market, the nature and duration of the
restrictions for holding the securities, a stated net asset value (NAV) for the partnership, if applicable, and other relevant factors. Depending on the relative significance of valuation inputs, these instruments may be classified in either
Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
When the last day of the reporting period is a non-business day, certain
foreign markets may be open on days the NYSE is closed, which could result in differences between the value of a funds portfolio securities on the last business day and the last calendar day of the reporting period. Any significant security
valuation changes due to an open foreign market are adjusted and reflected by the fund for financial reporting purposes.
The following is a summary of the fair valuations according to the inputs used as of
March 31, 2019 in valuing the Funds assets and liabilities:

The fair values of these limited partnership interests have been estimated using the net asset value of the Funds
Limited Partners Capital Account. These limited partnership interests can never be redeemed. Distributions from each limited partnership will be received as the underlying investments are liquidated. It is estimated that the underlying assets
of the limited partnerships will be liquidated over the next one to five years. |
If the securities of an Asset
Class are all the same level, the asset class is shown in total. If the securities of an Asset Class cross levels, the level with the smallest number of categories and with multiple levels within a category is displayed by category. The
remaining categories that do not cross levels are combined into the Other category.
The valuation techniques used by the Funds
to measure fair value for the six months ended March 31, 2019 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs.
The Funds policy is to recognize transfers between levels at the end of the reporting period. The table below shows the significant
transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 due to fair valuation in certain foreign markets pursuant to a systematic valuation model.
There were transfers of $10,632,125 in the Core Growth Fund and $42,754,388 in the Small Cap Growth Fund from Level 3 to Level 1 due
to a change in pricing strategy on a private company that came public. This transfer amount represents the beginning of the period value for DocuSign, Inc., which transferred to Level 1 during the period in order to properly represent the
activity on the Level 3 Rollforward presented below.
There was a transfer of $2,628,758 in Emerging India Fund out of Level 3 to
Level 1 due to a change in pricing strategy on a private company that came public. This transfer amount represents the beginning of the period value for Aavas Financiers Ltd., which transferred to Level 1 during the period in order to
properly represent the activity on the Level 3 Rollforward presented below.
There was a transfer of $8,206 in the International
Opportunities Fund from Level 1 to Level 3.
The following is a reconciliation of the fair valuations using significant
unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the Funds during the six months ended March 31, 2019:

Enterprise-Value-To-Revenue
Multiple (EV/R) is a measure of the value of a stock that compares a companys enterprise value to its revenue. |
Changes in EV/R multiples may change the fair value of an investment. Generally, a decrease in this multiple will result in a decrease in the
fair value of an investment.
The Funds other Level 3 investments have been valued using observable inputs, unadjusted
third-party transactions and quotations or unadjusted historical third party information. No unobservable inputs internally developed by the Funds have been applied to these investments, thus they have been excluded from the above table.
Other information regarding the Funds is available in the Funds most recent Prospectus and Report to Shareholders. This information is
available on the Funds website at www.WasatchFunds.com and on the Securities and Exchange Commissions website at www.sec.gov.
13. OFFSETTING

BOARD CONSIDERATIONS
FOR ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS OF THE WASATCH
FUNDS
At a meeting held on November 6-7, 2018 (the Meeting), the Board of Trustees (the
Board) of Wasatch Funds Trust (the Trust), including the disinterested Trustees (hereinafter, the Independent Trustees), unanimously approved the Advisory and Service Contract (the Advisory Agreement)
between the Trust and Wasatch Advisors, Inc. (the Advisor) on behalf of each series of the Trust (each a Fund) and the sub-advisory agreement (the Sub-Advisory Agreement) between the Advisor and Hoisington
Investment Management Company (HIMCO or the Sub-Advisor) on behalf of the Wasatch-Hoisington U.S. Treasury Fund (the U.S. Treasury Fund). The Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement are collectively the
Advisory Agreements.
The Board, including the Independent Trustees, is responsible for overseeing the management of the Funds
and as such, the Board determines each year as required by law whether to continue the Advisory Agreement with the Advisor on behalf of each Fund, and the Sub-Advisory Agreement with HIMCO on behalf of the U.S. Treasury Fund. In preparation for
their review of the Advisory Agreements, the Independent Trustees requested through independent legal counsel and received extensive materials specifically prepared for the annual review of such agreements by the Advisor as well as certain materials
provided by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (Broadridge or Lipper), an independent provider of investment company data. The materials covered a breadth of subject matters including, among other things, an overview of the
organization; leadership structure and investment process of the Advisor, including its investment risk management process; the services performed pursuant to the Advisory Agreement; the experience of the relevant investment personnel; the
performance of each Fund in absolute terms and as compared to the performance of peers compiled by Broadridge and benchmark(s); the brokerage policies and practices; the fees and expenses of each Fund and as compared to peers compiled by Broadridge;
and the profitability of the Advisor. With respect to the Sub-Advisor, the materials also covered, among other things, an evaluation of the Sub-Advisor by the Advisor; the organizational and leadership structure of the Sub-Advisor; the services
performed pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement; the experience of the relevant investment personnel; the performance of the U.S. Treasury Fund in absolute terms and as compared to the performance of peers compiled by Broadridge and a benchmark;
the fees and expenses of the U.S. Treasury Fund and as compared to peers compiled by Broadridge; and certain financial data regarding the Sub-Advisor. These materials supplement the materials that the Independent Trustees received and discussed
throughout the year covering topics that are also pertinent to the annual review of Advisory Agreements, such as Fund performance, compliance, risk and liquidity management, brokerage allocation, distribution activity and trade execution. The
Independent Trustees consider their review of Advisory Agreements to be an ongoing process that encompasses the information received, knowledge gained and discussions held during their Board and committee meetings held
throughout the year as well as while serving as Trustees. The Independent Trustees also received a memorandum from independent legal counsel outlining their fiduciary duties and legal standards
in reviewing the Advisory Agreements.
In continuing their practice, the Independent Trustees met in executive session at a meeting held on
October 23-24, 2018 (the October Executive Session) to consider and discuss the materials provided in connection with their review of the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements. In their review, the Independent Trustees evaluated the
advisory arrangements separately on a Fund-by-Fund and per class basis. The Independent Trustees invited members of management of the Advisor to attend the executive session from time to time to respond to questions and provide additional
information. As a result of these discussions, as well as a result of the culmination of the Boards year-round oversight of the Funds, the Independent Trustees presented the Advisor with additional questions and requests for additional
information (through their independent counsel) and the Advisor provided written and oral responses to this request.
At this Meeting, the
Independent Trustees met, including in executive session without management present, to further consider, in relevant part, the renewal of the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements. The Independent Trustees had the benefit of independent legal
counsel throughout the process. After their discussions and taking into account the information specifically provided for the evaluation of the Advisory Agreements, the information provided during the year, the accumulated knowledge and experience
gained during their tenure as trustees, and the legal advice provided by legal counsel, the Independent Trustees approved the renewal of the Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Independent Trustees consideration of the
contractual fee arrangements for the Funds were the result of several years of review and discussion between the Independent Trustees and Fund management, and the Independent Trustees conclusions may be based, in part, on their consideration
of the fee arrangements and other factors developed in prior years. The Independent Trustees did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling, but rather the decision reflected the comprehensive consideration of all the information
presented, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors and information considered in the approval process. The following summarizes the principal factors, but not all the factors, the Board considered in its review
of the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements and its conclusions.
A. NATURE, EXTENT
AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
The Board, including the Independent
Trustees, considered the nature, extent and quality of the Advisors and the Sub-Advisors services to the Funds and the resulting performance of each Fund, as described in further detail below. The Board considered the comprehensive set
of management, oversight and administrative services the Advisor provides to manage and operate the Funds. The Independent Trustees recognized that the Advisor provides portfolio management services for the Funds (other than the U.S. Treasury Fund).
In connection with providing these portfolio management services, the
109
Supplemental Information (continued)
Board considered the Advisors investment approach and philosophy, its research capabilities, the
experience and tenure of the portfolio managers and the research and trading teams. In considering its investment approach, the Board recognized that the Advisor followed a research-intensive approach in evaluating companies and considered
information reflecting, among other things, the Advisors investment process, risk identification and management process, due diligence followed in assessing companies, the portfolio construction process and the Advisors sell discipline.
The Independent Trustees also continue to seek to meet with the portfolio manager(s) of the various Funds during the year to discuss and keep updated on, among other things, the investment approach employed, any adjustments thereto, market
conditions, risk management, liquidity and investment performance. As noted below, the Independent Trustees also reviewed Fund performance in considering the investment management performance of the Advisor or HIMCO, as applicable.
In addition to portfolio management services, the Board considered the quality of the administrative or non-advisory services the Advisor
provides to manage and operate the Funds (in addition to those provided by other third-parties). The Advisor oversees the day-to-day operations of the Funds providing the officers and other personnel necessary for their operation and/or overseeing
the service providers involved in the daily operations of the Funds. As illustrative, these services included, but are not limited to, service provider oversight services (such as coordinating and evaluating the services of the the various
third-party service providers, including the Sub-Advisor, accountants, administrator, attorneys, custodian and transfer agent), Board support and administration (such as overseeing the organization of the Board and committee meetings and preparing
or overseeing the timely preparation of various materials and/or presentations for such meetings), shareholder communications (such as overseeing the preparation of annual and semi-annual and other periodic shareholder reports); Fund regulatory and
other administration services (such as overseeing the preparation of the Funds registration statements and other regulatory filings; overseeing the valuation of portfolio securities and daily pricing; reviewing and certifying the Funds
financial statements; overseeing the Funds distributions; analyzing trade execution including monitoring and evaluating cross-trades [if any]; and overseeing and assisting with compliance with foreign registration requirements); and compliance
services (such as helping to maintain and update the Funds compliance program and related policies and procedures as necessary or appropriate to meet new regulatory requirements; testing for compliance; providing compliance training for
personnel; and evaluating the compliance programs of the Funds service providers). The Independent Trustees also considered the various material entrepreneurial, reputational and regulatory risks the Advisor incurs in managing the Funds in a
highly regulated industry.
In helping to ensure the continuity of services, the Independent Trustees also assessed the stability,
organizational structure, financial strength and resources of the Advisor. The Independent Trustees considered, among other things, information regarding the history and experience of the Advisor as an investment advisor; its leadership structure
(including committee structure); its compensation arrangements and whether they were sufficient to attract and retain qualified personnel and deter taking undue risks in portfolio management; its
succession planning for key personnel; its risk identification and management process in seeking to address identified risks faced by the Advisor; its business continuity policies and procedures; and certain financial data of the Advisor, including
its profitability.
With respect to the Sub-Advisor, the Independent Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of services the
Sub-Advisor provides to the U.S. Treasury Fund. The Independent Trustees recognized that the Sub-Advisor primarily provides portfolio management services for the U.S. Treasury Fund and was not expected to supply other significant administrative
services. The Independent Trustees considered the background and experience of the investment personnel of the Sub-Advisor and the performance history of the U.S. Treasury Fund. The Independent Trustees also reviewed the Advisors evaluation of
the Sub-Advisor and its performance. Similarly, in seeking to help ensure the continuity of the services of the Sub-Advisor, the Independent Trustees considered the stability, organizational structure, financial strength and resources of the
Sub-Advisor. The Independent Trustees considered, among other things, the history and experience of the Sub-Advisor as a registered investment advisor; its leadership structure; its compensation arrangements; its disaster recovery plans and process;
its compliance program, including its regulatory history; its process to assess enterprise risk; and certain financial data of the Sub-Advisor as described in further detail below. The Board noted that the Advisor recommended the renewal of the
Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Based on their review, the Independent Trustees found that, overall, the nature, extent and quality of services
provided under the Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement were satisfactory on behalf of each applicable Fund.
B.
THE INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE OF THE FUNDS
As part of its evaluation of services provided by the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor, the Board reviewed the performance history of each Fund.
Prior to the October Executive Session, the Board received and reviewed a report (the Broadridge Report) prepared by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. Broadridge an independent data provider, which generally
provided a Funds performance data for the one-, two-, three-, four-, five-, and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2018 (or for the periods available for Funds that did not exist for part of the foregoing timeframe) on an absolute basis and
as compared to the performance of unaffiliated funds with similar investment objectives or classifications (a Broadridge Peer Universe), to a more focused subset of peers (a Broadridge Peer Group) and a
benchmark provided by Broadridge for the prescribed periods. The Board was provided with information describing the methodology Broadridge used to create the Broadridge Peer Group and Broadridge Peer Universe.
In addition to the Broadridge Report, the Independent Trustees also reviewed materials reflecting, among other things, the respective
Funds historical performance for the quarter, one-, three-, five-, and 10-year periods ended
110
|
|
|
|
|
MARCH 31, 2019 (UNAUDITED) |
|
|
|
September 30, 2018 (or for the periods available for Funds that did not exist for part of the foregoing time frame), and annual returns from 2000 through 2017 (or for the calendar years
available for Funds that did not exist for part of the foregoing time frame) in absolute terms and as compared to the Funds respective benchmark(s) as described below.
The Board also considered information reflecting a Funds peer ranking in its respective Morningstar investment category and any
Morningstar ratings on the Fund. The Independent Trustees further received analyst reports provided by an unaffiliated party for the following Funds: the Core Growth Fund, the International Opportunities Fund, the Small Cap Growth Fund, and the U.S.
Treasury Fund. The Independent Trusts also reviewed the performance of the following Funds (the Core Growth Fund, the Emerging Markets Select Fund, the Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund, the Frontier Emerging Small Countries Fund, the Global
Opportunities Fund, the International Growth Fund, the International Opportunities Fund, the Micro Cap Fund, the Micro Cap Value Fund, the Small Cap Growth Fund, the Small Cap Value Fund and the Ultra Growth Fund), compared to the performance of
certain composites of separate accounts for the one-, three-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018 (or for such shorter periods if a Fund or separate account composite did not exist for part of the foregoing timeframe). The
performance data prepared for the review of the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements supplements the performance data the Trustees received throughout the year as the Board regularly reviews and meets with portfolio manager(s) during the year to
discuss, in relevant part, the performance of their respective Fund.
In evaluating performance, the Independent Trustees understand
certain limitations of assessing performance data which may impact the weight given to particular performance data, including the following:
|
|
The performance data reflects a snapshot in time as of a particular period (in this case, the periods ended August 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018) and a different performance period could generate
significantly different results; |
|
|
Long-term performance can be affected by even one period of significant underperformance or overperformance so that a single investment decision or theme has the ability to disproportionately affect long-term
performance; |
|
|
The investment experience of a particular shareholder in the Funds will vary depending on the shareholders particular investment period and the Funds performance during that period and the class held (if
multiple classes are offered in a Fund); |
|
|
Although the performance data included in the Broadridge Report was based on the performance of the Investor Class shares of the Funds, the Board recognized that certain Funds also offer an Institutional Class. The
performance of another class of a Fund, however, should be substantially similar on a relative basis because the classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities and differences in performance between the classes could be principally
attributed to the variation in the expenses of each class; and |
|
|
There may be difficulties in establishing appropriate peer groups and benchmarks for certain Funds. In this regard,
|
|
the Independent Trustees considered that the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor are responsible for managing the respective Fund in accordance with its investment objective(s), investment parameters and
guidelines and that peers and/or benchmarks may be following different objectives, investment parameters and guidelines and risk tolerance levels which will lead to differing performance results and may limit the value of the comparative performance
data in assessing a particular Funds performance. The Independent Trustees have recognized some limitations with the Broadridge Peer Group for the Micro Cap Fund and Micro Cap Value Fund (collectively, the Micro Cap
Funds) as the respective Broadridge Peer Group generally focuses on companies with larger market capitalizations than those sought by the Micro Cap Funds. As a result, the Independent Trustees also reviewed the Micro Cap Funds
performance compared to a custom no-load peer group provided by the Advisor for the one-, three-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. |
Based on their review of the performance data, the Independent Trustees determined the following:
Core Growth Fund
With respect to the Core
Growth Fund, the Funds Investor Class outperformed the median of the Broadridge Peer Group for the one-, two-, three-, four-, five- and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2018. The Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class also
outperformed the Russell 2000 Index and Russell 2000 Growth Index for the one-, three-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. The Board was satisfied with the Funds overall performance.
Emerging India Fund
With respect to the
Emerging India Fund, the Funds Investor Class outperformed the median of its Broadridge Peer Group in the one-, two-, three-, four- and five-year periods ended August 31, 2018. The Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class also
outperformed the MSCI India Investable Market Index for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018. The Board considered that the Funds performance had been generally favorable.
Emerging Markets Select Fund
With respect
to the Emerging Markets Select Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that although the Funds Investor Class slightly underperformed the median of the Broadridge Peer Group for the two-, three- and five-year periods, the class matched the median
of the Broadridge Peer Group in the four-year period and outperformed the median of its Broadridge Peer Group in the one-year period ended August 31, 2018. Similarly, although the Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class
underperformed the MSCI Emerging Markets Index over the three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018, each class outperformed such index for the one-year period ended September 30, 2018. Although the Funds performance
relative to the benchmark over the longer periods was somewhat challenged, the Funds performance over the shorter one-year period had improved. The Board considered the Fund portfolio positions that underperformed
111
Supplemental Information (continued)
those in the benchmark as well as the challenged performance of the emerging market asset class. The Board was
satisfied with the explanation of the Funds performance and the improved performance over the one-year period, but would continue to monitor this Fund closely.
Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund
With
respect to the Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds Investor Class provided positive absolute performance for the two-, three-, four-, five- and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2018, but the
relative performance was somewhat challenged. In this regard, the Funds Investor Class underperformed the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for two-, three-, and five-year periods ended August 31, 2018. The Funds Investor Class,
however, outperformed the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the one-year period and matched the median for the Broadridge Peer Group for the four-year period ended August 31, 2018. In addition, although the Funds Investor Class and
Institutional Class underperformed the MSCI Emerging Markets Small Cap Index and MSCI Emerging Markets Index for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018, each class outperformed such indexes in the 10-year period ended
September 30, 2018. The Board considered the Funds portfolio positions that detracted from Fund performance as well as the challenged performance of the emerging market asset class. In light of the foregoing, the Board would continue to
monitor this Fund closely.
Frontier Emerging Small Countries Fund
With respect to the Frontier Emerging Small Countries Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Fund has experienced periods of challenged
performance with the Investor Class underperforming the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the one-, two-, three-, four- and five-year periods ended August 31, 2018. The Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class similarly
underperformed the MSCI Frontier Emerging Markets Index and MSCI Frontier Markets Index for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018. The Board considered, among other things, the portfolio positions that detracted from
Fund performance and the challenged performance of the asset class. The Board also considered the steps management had taken to address performance issues, including the changes to portfolio managers of the Fund in 2016 and modifications to the
investment approach of the Fund under the new management team. The Board would continue to monitor this Fund closely.
Global Opportunities Fund
With respect to the Global Opportunities Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds Investor Class outperformed the
median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the one-, two-, three-, four- and five-year periods ended August 31, 2018. Similarly, the Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI ACWI (All Country World)
Small Cap Index, for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018. The
Board determined that the Funds overall performance over time had been generally favorable.
Global Value Fund
With respect to the
Global Value Fund (formerly, the Large Cap Value Fund), the Independent Trustees noted that although the Funds Investor Class underperformed the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the 10-year period ended August 31, 2018, the
Funds Investor Class outperformed or matched the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the one-, two-, three-, four- and five-year periods ended August 31, 2018. The Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class, however,
underperformed the MSCI ACWI (All Country World Index) and Russell 1000® Value Index for the one-, three-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. In reviewing the
performance, the Independent Trustees recognized that the Board had approved a change in the principal investment strategies of the Fund to permit the Fund greater ability to invest in foreign securities becoming a global value fund effective
October 31, 2017, and the performance prior to such effective date would not reflect the foregoing change. Although the Fund previously had experienced periods of challenged performance, the Board recognized the steps the Advisor has taken to
address performance issues and was satisfied with the Funds improved performance.
International Growth Fund
With respect to the International Growth Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that although the Funds Investor Class underperformed the
median of its Broadridge Peer Group in the five-year period ended August 31, 2018, the Class outperformed the median in the one-, two-, three-, four- and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2018. The Independent Trustees further noted that
the Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class outperformed the benchmarks, the MSCI ACWI (All Country World Index) ex-USA Small Cap Index and MSCI World ex-USA Small Cap Index, for the one-, three-, five- and 10-year periods ended
September 30, 2018. The Board recognized the improved performance of the Fund and determined that it was satisfied with the Funds overall performance.
International Opportunities Fund
With
respect to the International Opportunities Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds Investor Class outperformed the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the one-, two-, three-, four-, five- and 10-year periods ended
August 31, 2018. Similarly, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class outperformed its benchmarks the MSCI ACWI ex USA. Small Cap Index and MSCI World ex USA. Small Cap Index for the one-,
three-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. The Board determined the Funds overall performance had been generally favorable.
Micro Cap Fund
With respect to the Micro
Cap Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds Investor Class outperformed
112
|
|
|
|
|
MARCH 31, 2019 (UNAUDITED) |
|
|
|
the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the one-, two-, three- four-, five- and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2018. In addition, the Funds Investor Class outperformed its
benchmark, the Russell Microcap® Index, for the one-, three-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. In considering the comparative data, the Independent Trustees recognized
that the Broadridge Peer Group may not adequately reflect the investment strategies and investable universe of the Fund thereby limiting some of the value of the comparative data. Accordingly, the Independent Trustees also reviewed the Funds
performance compared to a custom peer group provided by the Advisor for the one-, three-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. In considering the foregoing, the Board determined the Funds overall performance had been
generally favorable.
Micro Cap Value Fund
With respect to the Micro Cap Value Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds Investor Class outperformed the median of its
Broadridge Peer Group for the one-, two, three-, four-, five- and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2018. Similarly, the Funds Investor Class outperformed its benchmark, the Russell Microcap Index, for the one-, three-, five- and 10-year
periods ended September 30, 2018. In considering the comparative data, as noted above with the Micro Cap Fund, the Independent Trustees recognized that the Broadridge Peer Group may not adequately reflect the investment strategies and
investable universe of the Fund thereby limiting some of the usefulness of the comparative data. The Independent Trustees accordingly also reviewed the Funds performance compared to a custom peer group provided by the Advisor for the one-,
three-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018? In considering the foregoing, the Board determined that the Funds overall performance had been generally favorable.
Small Cap Growth Fund
With respect to the
Small Cap Growth Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that although the Funds Investor Class underperformed the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the five-year period ended August 31, 2018, the Class outperformed such median for the
one-, two-, three-, four- and 10-year periods. In addition, although the Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class underperformed the Russell 2000 Growth Index for the five-year period, each class outperformed such index for the one-,
three- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. Similarly, the Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class outperformed the Russell 2000 Index for the one- three-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. The Board
was satisfied with the Funds overall performance.
Small Cap Value Fund
With respect to the Small Cap Value Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds Investor Class outperformed the performance of
the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the one-, two-, three-, four-, five- and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2018. Except that the Investor Class shares of the Fund underperformed the Russell 2000
Value Index for the three-year period ended September 30, 2018, the Institutional Class outperformed such index in such period and the Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class each
outperformed such index for the one-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. Similarly, although the Funds Investor Class and Institutional Class underperformed the Russell 2000 Index for the one- and three-year periods ended
September 30, 2018, each class outperformed such index in the five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. The Board was satisfied with the Funds performance.
Ultra Growth Fund
With respect to the
Ultra Growth Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds Investor Class outperformed the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the one-, two-, three-, four-, five- and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2018. In addition, the
Funds Investor Class outperformed the Russell 2000® Growth Index for the one-, three-, five- and 10-year periods ended September 30, 2018. In light of the foregoing, the Board was
satisfied with the Funds overall performance.
U.S. Treasury Fund
With respect to the U.S. Treasury Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that although the Funds Investor Class underperformed the median
of its Broadridge Peer Group for the one- and two-year periods ended August 31, 2018, the Fund outperformed the median of its Broadridge Peer Group for the three-, four-, five- and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2018. Similarly, although
the Funds Investor Class underperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index, in the one- and three-year periods ended September 30, 2018, the Fund outperformed such index in the five- and 10-year periods ended
September 30, 2018. The Board was satisfied with the Funds overall performance.
C. FEES,
EXPENSES AND PROFITABILITY
In its annual review, the Board considered the fees paid to the Advisor and Sub-Advisor and the total operating expense ratio of each Fund
before and after any expense cap undertaken by the Advisor to limit the respective Funds operating expenses to certain levels. More specifically, the Independent Trustees reviewed, among other things, the contractual management fee rate, the
net management fee rate (i.e., the management fee after taking into account expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, if any) and net total expense ratio of each class of the respective Fund in relation to those of a comparable universe of funds
(the Broadridge Expense Universe) and to a more focused subset of comparable funds (the Broadridge Expense Group) established by Broadridge. The Board reviewed information regarding the methodology followed by
Broadridge to develop the Broadridge Expense Universe and Broadridge Expense Group. The Board considered the net total expense ratio of each class of each Fund (expressed as a percentage of average net assets) as the expense ratio is more reflective
of the investors net experience in a Fund as it directly reflects the costs of investing in a Fund.
113
Supplemental Information (continued)
In reviewing the comparative data provided by Broadridge, the Board was aware of some of the
limitations of such data that arise as a result of differences between the investment strategies of the Funds and the peers, particularly with respect to the Micro Cap Fund and Micro Cap Value Fund, and that the data may vary depending on the
selection and composition of the peer group. In light of the foregoing, the Independent Trustees also reviewed comparisons of the Micro Cap Funds and Micro Cap Value Funds management fee and net expense ratio with those of a custom peer
group provided by the Advisor.
Aside from the comparative data provided by Broadridge, the Independent Trustees also considered
information regarding fees charged by the Advisor and Sub-Advisor to other types of clients, as described in further detail below.
In
addition to the foregoing fee and expense data, the Board considered information regarding the various factors that the Advisor considers in proposing a management fee level for a respective Fund, including, among other things, the potential value
of the service (such as the potential for the strategy to deliver alpha and the experience of the management team with the respective strategy), the competitive marketplace (such as the uniqueness of the Fund and the fees of competitor funds) and
the economics to the Advisor (such as, the costs to provide the advisory services to the particular Fund and the existence of any capacity constraints of the Fund, which may reduce the potential for revenues to the Advisor). In this regard, the
Board also noted the research-intensive approach followed by the Advisor and the related costs incurred of such approach, particularly for evaluating small- or micro-cap companies as well as foreign companies; the quality and experience of the
portfolio managers; and the Advisors willingness to close capacity-constrained Funds when necessary to protect performance and forego potential revenues that could be derived from higher asset levels. The Board further considered the
Advisors contractual commitment to limit certain operating expenses of each of the classes of various Funds to the benefit of shareholders and reviewed the amounts, if any, the Advisor had reimbursed to the applicable Fund for the last three
fiscal years.
In considering the fees of the Sub-Advisor for the U.S. Treasury Fund, the Independent Trustees considered the fee rate paid
to the Sub-Advisor with respect to such Fund in absolute terms and as compared to the Sub-Advisors pricing schedule for portfolio management services for other clients. The Independent Trustees also noted that the Sub-Advisor fee is an
obligation of the Advisor from its own revenues and not of the Fund. Further, the Independent Trustees recognized that the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor are not affiliates and the sub-advisory fee was established through arms length negotiations
between the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor.
In its evaluation of the advisory and sub-advisory fees of the Funds, the Board observed, among
other things, the following:
With respect to the Core Growth Fund, the Independent Trustees recognized that although the contractual
management fee rate for the Investor and Institutional Class shares was above the median of its respective Broadridge Expense Group, the Fund had a net expense ratio that was slightly higher (within 5 basis points) than the median of its Broadridge
Expense Group
for the Investor Class shares and higher than the median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Institutional Class shares. The Independent Trustees also noted, in part, the capacity constraints
of this Fund, the experience and expertise of the Advisor with this strategy, the costs of the research-intensive approach, and the potential for the Fund to deliver alpha. Based on its review, the Board determined that the advisory fee for the
foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.
With respect to the Emerging India Fund,
although the Funds contractual management fee rate for the Investor Class and Institutional Class shares was higher than the median of its Broadridge Expense Group, its net expense ratio was the same as the median of its Broadridge Expense
Group for the Investor Class shares and below the median for the Institutional Class shares. The Independent Trustees also noted, in part, the capacity constraints of this Fund, the uniqueness of the Fund in the marketplace, and the additional
expenses associated with evaluating and investing in companies in India. Based on its review, the Board determined that the advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.
With respect to the Emerging Markets Select Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds contractual management fee rate was
slightly higher (within 5 basis points) than the median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor Class shares and the Institutional Class shares and the net expense ratio for the Investor Class shares was higher than the median for the
Broadridge Expense Group, but the net expense ratio for the Institutional Class was lower than the median. While the Independent Trustees recognized that the Fund had more capacity than other Funds, which are focused on small- and/or micro-cap
securities, the Trustees also recognized the uniqueness of the Funds approach to the emerging markets segment. Based on its review, the Board determined that the advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent
and quality of services provided.
With respect to the Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds
contractual management fee rate and net total expense ratio for the Investor Class shares and Institutional Class shares were above the median of its Broadridge Expense Group. The Independent Trustees also noted, in part, the capacity constraints of
this Fund, the uniqueness of the Fund in the marketplace, and the additional expenses associated with evaluating and investing in companies dispersed among the various emerging market countries. Based on its review, the Board determined that the
advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.
With respect to the
Frontier Emerging Small Countries Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the contractual management fee rate and net expense ratio were above the median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor and Institutional Class shares. The Trustees
further recognized, however, that the management fee and expense cap on the classes of this Fund were reduced in 2017. The Independent Trustees also noted, in part, the capacity constraints

|
|
|
of this Fund, the uniqueness of the Fund in the marketplace, and the additional expenses associated with evaluating and investing in companies dispersed among the various emerging market and
frontier countries. Based on its review, the Board determined that the advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.
With respect to the Global Opportunities Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that although the contractual management fee rate of the Fund was
above the median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor Class shares and the Institutional Class shares, the Funds net expense ratio was the same as the median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor Class shares and below
the median for the Institutional Class shares. In addition, the Independent Trustees noted, in part, the capacity constraints of this Fund. Based on its review, the Board determined that the advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in
light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.
With respect to the Global Value Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that
the contractual management fee rate was slightly higher (within 5 basis points) than the median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor Class shares and Institutional Class shares, and the Funds net expense ratio was below the median
of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor Class shares and Institutional Class shares. In addition, the Independent Trustees recognized that the Fund generally had no capacity constraints given its investment strategies. Based on its review,
the Board determined that the advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.
With respect to the International Growth Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that although the Funds contractual management fee rate for
the Investor Class shares and Institutional Class shares was above the median of its Broadridge Expense Group, its net expense ratio was below the median of the Broadridge Expense Group for its Investor Class shares and Institutional Class shares.
In addition, the Independent Trustees noted, in part, the capacity constraints of the Fund, the uniqueness of the strategy of the Fund, and the additional costs incurred in evaluating and investing in foreign companies. Based on its review, the
Board determined that the advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.
With respect to the International Opportunities Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds contractual management fee rate and
net expense ratio were above the median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor Class shares and Institutional Class shares. In addition, the Independent Trustees noted, in part, the capacity constraints of the Fund, the uniqueness of the
strategy of the Fund, and the additional costs incurred in evaluating and investing in foreign companies. Based on its review, the Board determined that the advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and
quality of services provided.
With respect to the Micro Cap Fund and the Micro Cap Value Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that each
Funds contractual management fee rate and net expense ratio were above the
median of its Broadridge Expense Group. The Trustees, however, recognized that the management fees for these Funds were reduced in 2016. In addition, the Independent Trustees noted, in part, the
capacity constraints of the Funds, the uniqueness of the Funds and their potential to deliver alpha, the Advisors experience in this asset category, and the costs associated with applying the Advisors research-intensive approach to the
micro-cap asset class. Based on its review, the Board determined that the advisory fee for each of the foregoing Funds was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.
With respect to the Small Cap Growth Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds contractual management fee rate was above the
median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor Class shares and Institutional Class shares and its net expense ratio was above the median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor Class shares and slightly above (within 5 basis
points) the median for the Institutional Class shares. In addition, the Trustees noted, in part, the capacity constraints of the Fund, the potential to deliver alpha, the expertise of the Advisor with the strategy and the costs associated with
applying the Advisors research-intensive approach to the small-cap asset class. Based on its review, the Board determined that the advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services
provided.
With respect to the Small Cap Value Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds contractual management fee rate
was above the median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor Class shares and Institutional Class shares, and the net expense ratio of the Investor Class shares was above the median of its Broadridge Expense Group but below the median for
the Institutional Class shares. In addition, the Trustees noted, in part, the capacity constraints of the Fund, the potential to deliver alpha, the expertise of the Advisor with the strategy and the costs associated with applying the Advisors
research-intensive approach to the small-cap asset class. Based on its review, the Board determined that the advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.
With respect to the Ultra Growth Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the Funds contractual management fee rate and net expense
ratio for its Investor Class shares were slightly higher than (within 5 basis points) the respective median of the Broadridge Expense Group. In addition, the Independent Trustees noted, in part, the capacity constraints of the Fund, the
Advisors expertise in the small-cap asset class and the costs associated with applying the Advisors research-intensive approach to the small-cap asset class. Based on its review, the Board determined the advisory fee for the Fund was
acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.
With respect to the U.S. Treasury Fund, the Independent
Trustees noted that the Funds contractual management fee matched the median of its Broadridge Expense Group, and the Funds net expense ratio was below the median of its Broadridge Expense Group for the Investor Class shares. In addition,
the Independent Trustees recognized that the Fund did not have any capacity constraints. Based on its
115
Supplemental Information (continued)
review, the Board determined that the advisory fee for the foregoing Fund was acceptable in light of the nature,
extent and quality of services provided. In addition to the advisory fee of the U.S. Treasury Fund, the Board recognized that the Fund is sub-advised and separately considered the sub-advisory fee rate paid to the Sub-Advisor by the Advisor and as
compared to the Sub-Advisors pricing schedule for portfolio management services to other clients. With respect to the U.S. Treasury Fund, the Independent Trustees noted that the sub-advisory fee rate was in line with the Sub-Advisors fee
schedule in light of the asset size of the Fund. In addition, the Independent Trustees also recognized that the Advisor pays the Sub-Advisor from its own revenues and the sub-advisory fee to the Sub-Advisor was established through arms length
negotiations between the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor, which is unaffiliated with the Advisor. Based on its review, the Board determined that the sub-advisory fee for the U.S. Treasury Fund was acceptable in light of the nature, extent and quality of
services provided.
2. |
Fees Charged to Other Advisor and Sub-Advisor Clients |
In their review of the appropriateness of fees, the Board also considered information regarding the nature of services and fee rates offered by
the Advisor to other clients, including separate accounts, unified managed accounts, model accounts, collective investment trusts and certain domestic and foreign funds outside the Wasatch family of funds for which the Advisor serves as a
sub-advisor. The Independent Trustees reviewed, among other things, information regarding the fee rates of certain separate accounts and if multiple separate accounts existed with varying fee rates, the range of fees and their weighted average
of such accounts that are managed in a style similar to that of certain Funds. Such Funds included the Core Growth Fund, Emerging Markets Select Fund, Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund, Frontier Emerging Small Countries Fund, Global Opportunities
Fund, Global Value Fund, International Growth Fund, Micro Cap Fund, Micro Cap Value Fund, Small Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Value Fund and Ultra Growth Fund.
The Independent Trustees noted that the fee rates or weighted average fee rates for separate accounts and other types of clients were generally
lower than the fees for the comparable Fund, subject to certain exceptions. The Independent Trustees considered the rationale the Advisor provided for the variations in fee rates between the Funds and other types of clients including, in particular,
the material differences in the services provided to the Funds compared to other types of clients, the extensive regulatory requirements associated with operating registered investment companies, and the differences in the investment parameters and
strategies between the investment companies and other clients. The Independent Trustees noted that although the Advisor may provide portfolio management services to separate accounts similar to those for the Funds, the services may still be quite
different given the varying investment parameters. The Independent Trustees noted that, in general, the Advisor assessed higher fees to clients requiring a higher degree of service. The Independent Trustees acknowledged that the additional services
provided to support the Funds included, among other things, fund
administrative services and operations, shareholder communications, oversight of third party service providers, oversight of shareholder servicing, Board support, tax administration and
compliance, and that such services were not required to the same extent or at all for other types of clients. The Independent Trustees further acknowledged the entrepreneurial, reputational and regulatory risk the Advisor incurs in managing the
Funds. The Board determined that the varying levels of fees were justified given, among other things, the inherent differences in the products and level of services provided to the Funds versus other clients and the entrepreneurial and other risks
incurred in sponsoring and advising the Funds.
In addition, with respect to the Sub-Advisory fees for the Sub-Advisor of the U.S. Treasury
Fund, the Independent Trustees, as noted above, had reviewed the sub-advisory fee rate paid to the Sub-Advisor compared to the Sub-Advisors pricing schedule for portfolio management services for other clients, including the fee rate for a
separate account with a similar size as the Fund. The Independent Trustees had noted that the fee rate paid to the Sub-Advisor for its sub-advisory services was reasonable in comparison to its respective pricing schedule. The Trustees further noted
that the Sub-Advisor was unaffiliated with the Advisor and therefore the respective sub-advisory fee was the result of arms-length negotiations. As noted, the Board considered the sub-advisory fee to be acceptable in light of the nature, extent and
quality of services provided.
3. |
Profitability of the Advisor |
In conjunction with their review of fees, the Independent Trustees reviewed information reflecting the Advisors financial condition. The
Independent Trustees reviewed the consolidated financial statements of WA Holdings, Inc. (the parent of the Advisor) and its subsidiary (the Advisor) for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.
The Independent Trustees also reviewed the profitability information for the Advisor derived from its relationship with each Fund for the
calendar year ended December 31, 2017 on an actual and adjusted basis. The Independent Trustees evaluated, among other things, the Advisors revenues, expenses and net income (pre-tax and after-tax) and the net profit margins (pre-tax and
after-tax). The Independent Trustees also reviewed the level of profitability realized by the Advisor including and excluding distribution expenses incurred by the Advisor from its own resources.
In its evaluation of profitability, the Independent Trustees reviewed the Advisors methodology used to allocate revenue and expenses for
the purposes of calculating profitability per Fund. However, the Independent Trustees recognized the difficulty in calculating profitability at the individual Fund level given that the use of different but reasonable expense allocation methodologies
may lead to significantly different results. Further, the Independent Trustees recognized that employee compensation was the primary expense for the Advisor and as a privately held S corporation owned by employees, the Advisors level of
profitability could be influenced, in part, by paying employees through compensation expense as opposed to dividends as shareholders. As a result, the Independent Trustees also reviewed the Advisors profitability data for 2017 with
116
|
|
|
WASATCH FUNDS |
|
MARCH 31, 2019 (UNAUDITED) |
|
|
|
certain adjustments to the compensation expense to assist in the comparability of the Advisors
profitability to certain industry peers. In this regard, the Independent Trustees received and reviewed comparative profitability data which included, among other things, the revenues, expenses and profit margin (pre-tax) of certain other public
advisory firms in the industry which the Advisor considers resemble its business model. The Trustees, however, noted the difficulty in comparing the profitability of various investment advisors given the limited public information available and the
subjective nature of calculating profitability which can be affected by numerous factors, including variations in fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the advisor, the types of funds managed, other lines of business, the cost allocation
methodology, and the capital structure. Based on the information presented and recognizing the above limitations, the Independent Trustees noted that the Advisors profitability (with and without the compensation adjustment) appeared reasonable
when compared to the peer group of unaffiliated advisors. In addition to the comparative data, the Independent Trustees also considered in assessing profitability any indirect benefits (such as soft dollars) that the Advisor or Sub-Advisor received
that were directly attributable to the management of the applicable Funds as discussed in further detail below. Based on its review, the Board was satisfied that the Advisors level of profitability from its relationship with each Fund was not
unreasonable in light of the services provided.
In addition to the Advisors profitability, the Independent Trustees reviewed
information reflecting the financial condition of the Sub-Advisor. Although profitability on a per account level was not available, the Trustees reviewed the Sub-Advisors financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and
2016. Based on its review, including the Sub-Advisors fee schedule and the fact that the sub-advisory fee was established through arms length negotiations, the Independent Trustees concluded that the Sub-Advisors profitability from
its relationship with the U.S. Treasury Fund was not unreasonable.
D. |
|
ECONOMIES OF SCALE AND WHETHER FEE LEVELS REFLECT THESE
ECONOMIES OF SCALE |
The Board considered information provided by the
Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale as a Funds assets grow and whether the Funds have appropriately benefited from such economies of scale. In its review, the Independent Trustees recognized that economies of scale
are difficult to assess or quantify, particularly on a Fund-by-Fund basis. The Independent Trustees observed that economies of scale generally occur as assets grow. However, several Funds have capacity constraints, particularly those investing
primarily in small- and micro-cap companies. In light of these constraints, the Advisor has periodically closed Funds to new investments to protect performance that may not be able to be replicated at higher asset levels. Such practice may prevent
such Funds from achieving economies of scale that may exist at such higher asset levels. Although the Independent Trustees recognized that closing a Fund may prevent certain economies of scale from being achieved, the Trustees noted the benefit of
protecting performance for existing
shareholders and maintaining the assets of these Funds at levels the Advisor believes can be effectively managed. The Independent Trustees also recognized the costs of the Advisors
research-intensive investment process in managing Funds and the Advisors loss of potential revenues that could be earned on higher asset levels when a Fund is closed to new investments. With respect to Funds without capacity constraints, the
Independent Trustees considered the Advisors position that such Funds were not of a sufficient scale to benefit from breakpoints in the fee schedule. Further, although the management fees would remain the same as assets increased since they
are not subject to investment advisory fee breakpoints, the Board recognized that shareholders would benefit from the temporary expense limitation agreements that limit the overall net expense ratios on the respective classes of the Funds and which
may be considered another means for sharing economies of scale.
Considering the factors above, the Independent Trustees concluded the
absence of breakpoints in the management fees was acceptable and that such economies as exist are adequately reflected in the Advisors fee structure.
E. INDIRECT BENEFITS
The Independent Trustees received and considered information regarding indirect benefits the Advisor and Sub-Advisor may receive as a result of
their relationship with the respective Fund(s). In this regard, the Independent Trustees recognized that the Advisor may receive benefits from soft dollar arrangements whereby the Advisor may use a portion of the brokerage commissions paid by the
Funds to acquire research that may be useful to the Advisor in managing the Funds and other clients. The Independent Trustees recognized that the Advisors profitability would be lower if it paid for such research with its own revenues. With
respect to the Sub-Advisor, the Independent Trustees recognized that the Sub-Advisor has not participated in soft dollar arrangements with respect to the U.S. Treasury Funds portfolio transactions. The Independent Trustees further considered
the reputational and/or marketing benefits the Advisor and Sub-Advisor may receive as a result of their association with the Funds. The Independent Trustees took these indirect benefits into account when accessing the level of advisory fees paid to
the Advisor and sub-advisory fee to the Sub-Advisor and concluded that the indirect benefits received were reasonable.
F. |
|
ANNUAL APPROVAL OF ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS
|
The Independent Trustees did not identify any single factor discussed previously as all-important or controlling.
The Board concluded that the terms of the Advisory Agreement for each Fund and the Sub-Advisory Agreement with the Sub-Advisor on behalf of the U.S. Treasury Fund were fair and reasonable, that the Advisors and Sub-Advisors fees are
reasonable in light of the services provided to each respective Fund, and that the Advisory Agreement should be approved on behalf of each Fund and the Sub-Advisory Agreement should be approved on behalf of the U.S. Treasury Fund.
