THE CUTLER FUNDS

NOTES TO SCHEDULES OF INVESTMENTS

March 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

1. Securities Valuation

 

Portfolio securities of Cutler Equity Fund, Cutler Fixed Income Fund and Cutler Emerging Markets Fund (each, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”) are valued as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (normally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) on each day the NYSE is open. Exchange traded securities are valued using the last reported sales price on the exchanges on which they are primarily traded. When using the last sales price and when the market is considered to be active, the security will be classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy (see below). In the absence of a sale, such securities are valued at the mean of the last bid and asked price. Securities which are quoted by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Securities principally traded in non-U.S. markets that may close at different times than U.S. markets are typically fair valued by an independent pricing service and translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates supplied by an independent pricing quotation service. Non-exchange traded securities for which over-the-counter quotations are available are generally valued at the closing bid price. Fixed income securities are generally valued using prices provided by an independent pricing service. The independent pricing service uses information with respect to transactions in bonds, quotations from bond dealers, market transactions in comparable securities, and various relationships between securities in determining the prices. Investments in shares of other open-end investment companies, other than exchange-traded funds, are valued at their net asset value (“NAV”) as reported by such companies.

 

The Funds value securities at fair value pursuant to procedures adopted by the Cutler Investment Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) if (1) market quotations are insufficient or not readily available or (2) the Funds’ investment adviser believes that the prices or values available are unreliable due to, among other things, the occurrence of events after the close of the securities markets on which the Funds’ securities primarily trade but before the time as of which the Funds calculate their NAVs. In instances where the investment adviser believes that the prices received from the independent pricing service are unreliable, proprietary valuation models may be used that consider benchmark yield curves, estimated default rates, coupon rates, anticipated timing of principal repayments and other unique security features to estimate the relevant cash flows, which are discounted to calculate the fair values. Fair valued securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the inputs used.

 

The Board approves the independent pricing services used by the Funds.

 

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) establish a single authoritative definition of fair value, set out a framework for measuring fair value and require additional disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

 

 

THE CUTLER FUNDS

NOTES TO SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS (Continued)

 

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

Level 1 – quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets to which the Fund has access at the date of measurement.

 

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable. Level 2 inputs are those in markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are not current, little public information exists or instances where prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers.

 

Level 3 – model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are those inputs that reflect the Fund’s own assumptions that market participants would use to price the asset or liability based on the best available information.

 

Fixed income securities held by Cutler Fixed Income Fund are classified as Level 2 because the values for the fixed income securities are based on prices that utilize various “other significant observable inputs” including bid and ask quotations, prices of similar securities and interest rates, among other factors.

 

Securities of Cutler Emerging Markets Fund traded in foreign markets may be classified as Level 2 despite the availability of closing prices because such securities are typically fair valued by an independent pricing service approved by the Board. These foreign securities may be priced at their fair value because the value of the securities may be materially affected by events occurring before the Fund’s pricing time but after the close of the primary markets or exchanges on which such foreign securities are traded. These intervening events might be country-specific (e.g., natural disaster, economic or political developments, interest rate change); issuer-specific (e.g., earnings report, merger announcement); or U.S. markets-specific (such as a significant movement in the U.S. markets that is deemed to affect the value of foreign securities). The pricing service uses an automated system incorporating a model based on multiple parameters, including a security’s local closing price, relevant general and sector indices, currency fluctuations, trading in depositary receipts and futures, if applicable, and/or research valuations by its staff, in determining what it believes is the fair value of the securities.

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Cost of portfolio investments  $95,118,309   $7,886,571   $1,517,463 
                
Gross unrealized appreciation  $46,071,029   $335,142   $39,661 
Gross unrealized depreciation   (7,298,454)   (5,421)   (328,487)
                
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)  $38,772,575   $329,721   $(288,826)

  

The difference between the federal income tax cost of portfolio investments and the Schedule of Investments cost for each Fund is due to certain timing differences in the recognition of capital gains and losses under income tax regulations and GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are temporary in nature and are related to losses deferred due to wash sales.

4. Risks Associated with Emerging Markets

 

In seeking to meet its investment objective, under normal conditions, at least 80% of Cutler Emerging Markets Fund’s assets will be invested in a diversified portfolio of securities of issuers whose principal activities are in, or economically tied to, emerging markets countries selected in accordance with the investment adviser’s long standing dividend focused investment philosophy. Accordingly, Cutler Emerging Markets Fund is subject to the following investment risks:

 

Foreign Investment Risk — Investments in foreign securities involve different risks than U.S. investments, including fluctuations in currency exchange rates, potentially unstable political and economic structures, less efficient trade settlement practices, reduced availability of public information, and lack of uniform financial reporting and regulatory practices similar to those that apply to U.S. issuers. Foreign stock markets may also be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. stock markets.

 

Emerging Markets Risk — The economies of emerging market countries may be more dependent on relatively few industries that may be highly vulnerable to local and global changes. The governments of emerging market countries may be less stable than the governments of more developed countries. Countries in the emerging markets generally have less developed securities markets or exchanges, and less developed legal and accounting systems, reduced availability of public information, and lack of uniform financial reporting and regulatory practices, which in turn may adversely impact Cutler Emerging Markets Fund’s ability to calculate accurately the intrinsic value of the securities. Securities of emerging market companies may be less liquid and more volatile than securities in countries with more mature markets. The value of emerging market currencies may fluctuate more than the currencies of countries with more mature markets. Investments in emerging market countries may be subject to greater risks of government restrictions, including confiscatory taxation, expropriation or nationalization of a company’s assets, restrictions on foreign ownership of local companies and restrictions on withdrawing assets from the country. Investments in securities of issuers in emerging market countries may be considered speculative and higher risk.

 

Currency Risk — Because Cutler Emerging Markets Fund holds securities valued in foreign currencies and holds foreign currencies when it purchases and sells foreign securities, changes in exchange rates will impact the value of the Fund’s assets. Thus, investments in foreign securities involve currency risk, which is the risk that the values of the foreign securities and other assets denominated in foreign currencies will decrease due to adverse changes in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the value of foreign currencies.

5. Investment in Other Investment Companies

 

The Funds may invest a significant portion of their assets in shares of one or more investment companies, including ETFs. ETFs issue their shares to authorized participants in return for a specific basket of securities. The authorized participants then sell the ETF’s shares on the secondary market. In other words, ETF shares are traded on a securities exchange based on their fair value. There are certain risks associated with investments in ETFs. Investments in ETFs are subject to the risk that the ETF’s shares may trade at a premium (creating the risk that the Fund pays more than NAV for an ETF when making a purchase) or discount (creating the risk that a Fund receives less than NAV when selling an ETF) to the ETF’s NAV. Investments in ETFs are also subject to index-tracking risk because the total return generated by the securities will be reduced by transaction costs and expenses not incurred by the indices. Certain securities comprising the index tracked by an ETF may temporarily be unavailable, which may further impede the ETF’s ability to track its applicable index or match the index’s performance. Finally, ETF shares are also subject to the risks applicable to the underlying basket of securities. As of March 31, 2020, Cutler Emerging Markets Fund had 61.3% of the value of its net assets invested in ETFs.
