Fair Value Measurements
The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of December 31, 2025, in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). The level assigned to the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of December 31, 2025, in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

Fair Value Measurements
The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of December 31, 2025, in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). The level assigned to the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
These financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Investment Valuation
In computing each Fund’s NAV, the Fund’s portfolio investments are generally valued based on their last readily available market price. Price information on listed securities, including any exchange-traded funds in which a Fund invests (“Underlying ETFs”), is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. Securities regularly traded in an over-the-counter (“OTC”) market are valued at the latest quoted sales price on the primary exchange or national securities market on which such securities are traded. Securities not listed on an exchange or national securities market, or securities in which there was no last reported sales price, are valued at the most recent bid price. When market quotations are not readily available, a portfolio investment’s fair value will be determined and such fair valuations will be used in calculating a Fund’s NAV.
The Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) has adopted valuation policies and procedures pursuant to which it has designated AdvisorShares Investments, LLC (the “Advisor”) to determine the fair value of each Fund’s investments, subject to the Board’s oversight, when market prices for those investments are not readily available, including when they are determined to be unreliable. Fair value determinations are made in good faith and in accordance with the fair value methodologies established by the Advisor.
Investment Transactions
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investment securities are calculated using the identified cost method. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. Premiums and discounts are amortized over the life of the bond using the effective interest method.
Distributions received from investments in Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) are recorded as dividend income on ex-dividend date, subject to reclassification upon notice of the character of such distributions by the issuer. The portion of dividend attributable to the return of capital is recorded against the cost basis of the security.
Foreign Taxes
The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, capital gains on investments, certain foreign currency transactions or other corporate events. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which the Funds invest. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the Funds and are reflected in their Statements of Operations.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (continued)
Expenses
Expenses of the Trust, which are directly identifiable to a specific Fund, are applied to that Fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific Fund are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative net assets of each Fund.
Futures Contracts
Certain Funds may invest in futures contracts (“futures”), in order to hedge its investments against fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates or market conditions. Such Funds may invest in futures as a primary investment strategy. Investments in futures may increase or leverage exposure to a particular market risk, thereby increasing price volatility of derivative instruments a Fund holds. No monies are paid or received by a Fund upon the purchase or sale of a futures contract. Initially, a Fund will be required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or cash equivalents, known as initial margin, based on the value of the contract. Subsequent payments, called variation margin, to and from the broker, will be made on a daily basis as the price of the underlying instruments fluctuates, making the long and short positions in the futures contract more or less valuable, a process known as ‘marking-to-the-market’. Once a final determination of variation margin is made, additional cash is required to be paid by or released to a Fund, and the Fund will realize a loss or gain. A Fund may be subject to the risk that the change in the value of the futures contract may not correlate perfectly with the underlying index. Use of long futures contracts subjects a Fund to risk of loss in excess of the amounts shown on its Statement of Assets and Liabilities, up to the notional value of the futures contracts. Use of short futures contracts subjects a Fund to unlimited risk of loss. A Fund may enter into futures contracts only on exchanges or boards of trade. The exchange or board of trade acts as the counterparty to each futures contract; therefore, a Fund’s credit risk is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade. Under some circumstances, futures exchanges may establish daily limits on the amount that the price of a futures contract can vary from the previous day’s settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of unfavorable positions.
Swap Agreements
Certain Funds may invest in equity swaps to obtain exposure to the underlying referenced security, obtain leverage or enjoy the returns from ownership without actually owning equity. Equity swaps are two-party contracts that generally obligate one party to pay the positive return and the other party to pay the negative return on a specified reference security, basket of securities, security index or index component during the period of the swap. Equity swap contracts are marked to market daily based on the value of the underlying security and the change, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss.
Equity swaps normally do not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to equity swaps is normally limited to the net amount of payments that a Fund is contractually obligated to make. If the other party to an equity swap defaults, a Fund’s risk of loss consists of the net amount of payments that the Fund is contractually entitled to receive, if any.
Equity swaps are derivatives, and their value can be very volatile. To the extent that the Advisor or Sub-Advisor, as applicable, does not accurately analyze and predict future market trends, the values of assets or economic factors, a Fund may suffer a loss, which may be substantial. The swap markets in which many types of swap transactions are traded have grown substantially in recent years, with a large number of banks and investment banking firms acting both as principals and as agents. As a result, the markets for certain types of swaps have become relatively liquid. Periodic payments received or paid by a Fund are recorded as realized gains or losses.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (continued)
Repurchase Agreements
The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements provided that the value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest, will equal or exceed the value of the repurchase agreement during the term of the agreement. The underlying collateral for all repurchase agreements is held in safekeeping by the Fund’s custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the respective Fund may be delayed or limited.
Short Sales
Certain Funds may sell securities it does not own as a hedge against some of its long positions and/or in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security (short sale). When a Fund makes a short sale, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale. A Fund may have to pay a fee to borrow the particular security and may be obligated to remit any interest or dividends received on such borrowed securities. Dividends declared on short positions open are recorded on the ex-date as an expense. A gain, limited to the price at which a Fund sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in magnitude, will be recognized upon the termination of a short sale if the market price at termination is less than or greater than, respectively, the proceeds originally received. A Fund also is subject to the risk that it may be unable to reacquire a security to terminate a short position except at a price substantially in excess of the last quoted price.
A Fund is required to pledge cash or securities to the broker as collateral for any securities sold short. Collateral requirements are calculated daily based on the current market value of the short positions. Cash deposited with the broker for collateral for securities sold short is recorded as an asset on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and securities segregated as collateral are denoted in Schedule of Investments. A Fund may receive or pay the net of the following amounts: (i) a portion of the income from the investment of cash collateral; (ii) the broker’s fee on the borrowed securities; and (iii) a financing charge for the difference in the market value of the short position and cash collateral deposited with the broker. This income or fee is calculated daily based upon the market value of each borrowed security and a variable rate that is dependent on the availability of the security. The net amount of income or fees paid to Dorsey Wright Short ETF and Ranger Equity Bear ETF for the period ended December 31, 2025 was $(179,919) and $119,426, respectively, which is included as Interest in the Statement of Operations.
Deposits with brokers and segregated cash for securities sold short represent cash balances on deposit with the respective Fund’s prime brokers and custodian. A Fund is subject to credit risk should the prime brokers be unable to meet its obligations to the Fund.
Options
Certain Funds are authorized to write and purchase put and call options. When a Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is reflected as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value of the option written. When a security is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the security acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the security sold. When an option expires (or the Fund enters into a closing transaction), the Fund realizes a gain or loss on the option to the extent of the premiums received or paid (or gain or loss to the extent the cost of the closing transaction

exceeds the premium paid or received). A Fund, as writer of an option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. Written and purchased options are non-income producing investments.
Short-Term Investments
In addition to repurchase agreements, each Fund may invest in high-quality short-term debt securities and money market instruments on an ongoing basis to maintain liquidity or pending selection of investments in accordance with its policies. These short-term debt securities and money market instruments include shares of other mutual funds, commercial paper, certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances and U.S. government securities.
Securities Lending
The Funds participate in a securities lending program offered by The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY”) (the “Program”), providing for the lending of securities to qualified brokers. Securities lending income includes earnings of such temporary cash investments, plus or minus any rebate to a borrower. These earnings (after any rebate) are then divided between BNY, as a fee for its services under the Program, and the applicable Fund, according to agreed-upon rates. Collateral on all securities loaned is accepted as cash and non-cash and is maintained at a minimum level of 102% (105% in the case of certain foreign securities) of the market value, plus interest, if applicable, of investments on loan. It is the Funds’ policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to a Fund if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. Under the terms of the Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by BNY. Cash collateral is held in a separate account managed by BNY, who is authorized to exclusively enter into money market instruments and overnight repurchase agreements, which are collateralized at 102% with securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury; U.S. Government or any agency, instrumentality or authority of the U.S. Government. The securities purchased with cash collateral received are reflected in the Schedule of Investments. BNY bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the cash collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested.
The money market instruments and repurchase agreements income related to the Program earned by a Fund is disclosed on the Statement of Operations.
The value of loaned securities and related collateral outstanding at December 31, 2025 are shown in the Schedules of Investments and Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Non-cash collateral received by a Fund may not be sold or re-pledged except to satisfy a borrower default. Non-cash collateral is included on a Fund’s Schedule of Investments and Statement of Asset and Liabilities.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (continued)
Dividends and Distributions
Each Fund will generally pay out dividends to shareholders at least annually. Each Fund will distribute its net capital gains, if any, to shareholders annually. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date.
Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, each Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements cannot be known; however, the Trust expects any risk of loss to be remote.
3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Agreements
Investment Advisory Agreement
Each Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Advisor pursuant to which the Advisor serves as the Fund’s investment adviser. Pursuant to the agreement, the Advisor has overall responsibility for the general management and investment of each Fund’s portfolio, and has ultimate responsibility (subject to oversight by the Board) for investment and operational oversight of a Fund’s sub-adviser, if applicable. For its services, the Advisor is entitled to an annual management fee from each Fund, which is calculated daily and paid monthly based on the Fund’s average daily net assets. From time to time, the Advisor may waive all or a portion of its fee for a Fund.
The Advisor’s annual management fee for each Fund is as follows:
| Fund | Rate | ||
| Dorsey Wright ADR ETF | 0.75% | ||
| Dorsey Wright FSM All Cap World ETF | 0.75% | ||
| Dorsey Wright FSM US Core ETF | 0.75% | ||
| Dorsey Wright Short ETF | 0.75% | ||
| Focused Equity ETF | 0.75%* | ||
| Gerber Kawasaki ETF | 0.75% | ||
| Hotel ETF | 0.60% | ||
| HVAC and Industrial ETF | 0.60% | ||
| Insider Advantage ETF | 0.70% | ||
| MSOS Daily Leveraged ETF | 0.85% | ||
| Psychedelics ETF | 0.60% | ||
| Pure Cannabis ETF | 0.60%** | ||
| Pure US Canabis ETF | 0.60% | ||
| Q Dynamic Growth ETF | 0.91%* | ||
| Ranger Equity Bear ETF | 1.50% | ||
| Restaurant ETF | 0.60% | ||
| STAR Global Buy-Write ETF | 0.85% | ||
| Vice ETF | 0.60% |
| * | The Advisor’s advisory fee has two components – the base fee (disclosed in the table above) and the performance fee adjustment. The base fee is the pre-determined rate at which the Advisor is paid when the Fund’s net performance is in line with Fund’s pre-determined performance benchmark. The base fee is subject to an upward or downward adjustment |

| by the performance fee. If the Fund outperforms the performance benchmark, the Advisor may receive an upward fee adjustment. If the Fund underperforms the performance benchmark, the Advisor may receive a downward fee adjustment. The Advisor’s annual base fee based on the Fund’s average daily net assets. The performance fee adjustment is derived by comparing the Fund’s performance over a rolling twelve-month period to its performance benchmark, which is set forth in the table below. The base fee is adjusted at a rate of 0.02% for every 0.25% to 0.50% of out-performance or under-performance compared to the performance benchmark, but only up to 2.00% of the performance benchmark. As a result, the maximum possible performance fee adjustment, up or down, to the base fee is 0.10%. Accordingly, the Advisor’s annual advisory fee may range as follows, based on the Fund’s average daily net assets: |
| Fund | Performance Benchmark |
Annual
Advisory Fee Range |
||||
| Focused Equity ETF | S&P 500 Index | 0.65% to 0.85% | ||||
| Q Dynamic Growth ETF | S&P 500 Index | 0.90% to 1.10% |
| ** | The Fund’s advisory fee is 0.60% less the acquired fund fees and expenses related to any investment in AdvisorShares Pure US Cannabis ETF. |
With respect to the Focused Equity ETF, the following table illustrates how the effective annual rate of the advisory fee would vary under this arrangement, which is commonly referred to as a “fulcrum” fee arrangement:
| Base Fee | 0.75 | % | ||
| Incremental Changes | 0.02 | % | ||
| Performance to Benchmark | Advisory Fee | |||
| 2.00% | 0.85 | % | ||
| 1.50% | 0.83 | % | ||
| 1.25% | 0.81 | % | ||

Sub-Advisory Agreements
Each Fund’s investment sub-adviser, as applicable, provides investment advice and management services to its respective Fund(s). The Advisor supervises the day-to-day investment and reinvestment of the assets in each Fund and is responsible for monitoring the Fund’s adherence to its investment mandate. Pursuant to an investment sub-advisory agreement between each sub-adviser and the Advisor, the sub-adviser is entitled to a fee, which is paid by the Advisor and is not an additional expense of the applicable Fund, that is calculated daily and paid monthly by the Advisor, at an annual rate based on the average daily net assets of its respective Fund(s) as follows:
| Sub-Advisor | Sub-Advisory Fee Rate |
||||||
| Gerber Kawasaki ETF | Gerber Kawasaki, Inc. | 0.50 | % | ||||
| Ranger Equity Bear ETF | Ranger Alternative Management, L.P. | 1.00 | % | ||||
| STAR Global Buy-Write ETF | CreativeOne Wealth, LLC | 0.55 | % | ||||
From time to time, a sub-adviser may waive all or a portion of its fee for a fund.
Expense Limitation Agreement
The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse expenses in order to keep net expenses (excluding amounts payable pursuant to any plan adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1, interest expense, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and extraordinary expenses) from exceeding a specified percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets for at least one year from the date of the Fund’s currently effective prospectus. The expense limitation agreement may be terminated without payment of any penalty (i) by the Trust for any reason and at any time and (ii) by the Advisor, for any reason, upon ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to the Trust, such termination to be effective as of the close of business on the last day of the then-current one-year

| (a) | The expense limit is equal to the annual rate of the Advisor’s contractual advisory fee, which can range from 0.65% to 0.85%. |
If at any point it becomes unnecessary for the Advisor to waive fees or reimburse expenses, the Board may permit the Advisor to retain the difference between a Fund’s total annual operating expenses and the Fund’s expense limitation currently in effect, or, if lower, the expense limitation that was in effect at the time of the waiver and/or reimbursement, to recapture all or a portion of its prior fee waivers or expense reimbursements within three years of the date they were waived or reimbursed.

Administrator, Custodian, Fund Accountant and Transfer Agent
The Bank of New York Mellon serves as the Funds’ administrator, fund accountant, custodian, and transfer agent pursuant to a Fund Administration and Accounting Agreement, a Custody Agreement and a Transfer Agency and Service Agreement, as the case may be.
Distribution Arrangement
Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as the distributor of Creation Units (defined below) for each Fund pursuant to a distribution agreement. The Distributor does not maintain any secondary market shares. The Funds have adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (“Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. In accordance with its Plan, each Fund is authorized to pay an amount up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets each year for certain distribution-related activities.
No fee is currently paid by any Fund under the Plan, and there are no current plans to impose the fee. However, in the event a Fund were to charge a Rule 12b-1 fee, over time it would increase the cost of an investment in the Fund.
4. Creation and Redemption Transactions
The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV in groups of shares called “Creation Units.” Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of a Fund. Only “Authorized Participants” may purchase or redeem shares directly from each Fund. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a “participating party”, i.e., a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System (“CNS”) of the National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”) or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor with respect to creations and redemptions of Creation Units. Most retail investors will not qualify as Authorized Participants or have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they will be unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from a Fund. Rather, most retail investors will purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and will be subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.

4. Creation and Redemption Transactions – (continued)
To compensate a Fund for transfer and other transaction costs involved in creation transactions and redemption transactions through the clearing process, investors will be required to pay a minimum transaction fee, assessed per transaction, of $500. To the extent a Creation Unit consists of more than 100 securities, an additional fee may be charged to Authorized Participants to the next highest $500 increment at the following rates: (i) $5 per book-entry security settled via the NSCC’s CNS and (ii) $15 per security for “in-kind” settlements settled outside the NSCC, and all physical settlements, including options, futures and other derivatives.
5. Summary of Fair Value Disclosure
The FASB Accounting Standards Codification 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, defines fair value, establishes an authoritative framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| ● | Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the company has the ability to access. |
| ● | Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, 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 that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available. |
Investments that use Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to: (i) an unlisted security related to corporate actions; (ii) a restricted security (e.g., one that may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended); (iii) a security whose trading has been suspended or which has been de-listed from its primary trading exchange; (iv) a security that is thinly traded; (v) a security in default or bankruptcy proceedings for which there is no current market quotation; (vi) a security affected by currency controls or restrictions; and (vii) a security affected by a significant event (e.g., an event that occurs after the close of the markets on which the security is traded but before the time as of which a Fund’s net asset value is computed and that may materially affect the value of the Fund’s investment). Examples of events that may be “significant events” are government actions, natural disasters, armed conflicts and acts of terrorism. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
For more detailed categories, see the accompanying Schedules of Investments.
6. Derivative Instruments
The Funds have adopted authoritative standards of accounting for derivative instruments which establish enhanced disclosure requirements. These standards improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by requiring enhanced disclosures that enables investors to understand how and why a fund uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments are accounted for and how derivative

7. Federal Income Tax
Each Fund intends to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under Sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If so qualified, the Funds will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to its shareholders. FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-06, “Implementation Guidance on Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes and Disclosure Amendments for Nonpublic Entities” provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements, and requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing a Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-than-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Interest and penalty related to income taxes would be recorded as income tax expense. Management of the Funds is required to analyze all open tax years (2022 − 2024), as defined by IRS statute of limitations, for all major jurisdictions, including federal tax authorities and certain state tax authorities. As of December 31, 2025, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Trust currently has no tax-related examination in progress and is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
At June 30, 2025, the approximate cost of investments, excluding short positions, and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

9. Risks Involved with Investing in the Funds
As with any investment, an investor could lose all or part of their investment in a Fund and the Fund’s performance could trail that of other investments. A Fund may be subject to one or more principal risks noted below, any of which may adversely affect the Fund’s NAV, trading price, yield, total return and ability to meet its investment objective. Additional principal risks are disclosed in each Fund’s prospectus. Please refer to a Fund’s currently effective prospectus for the specific list and description of the principal risks of investing in the Fund.
Cannabis-Related Company Risk
Cannabis-related companies are subject to various laws and regulations that may differ at the state/local and federal level. These laws and regulations may (i) significantly affect a cannabis-related company’s ability to secure financing, (ii) impact the market for marijuana industry sales and services, and (iii) set limitations on marijuana use, production, transportation, and storage. Cannabis-related companies may also be required to secure permits and authorizations from government agencies to cultivate or research marijuana. In addition, cannabis-related companies are subject to the risks associated with the greater agricultural industry, including changes to or trends that affect commodity prices, labor costs, weather conditions, and laws and regulations related to environmental protection, health and safety. Cannabis-related companies may also be subject to risks associated with the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. These risks include increased government regulation, the use and enforcement of intellectual property rights and patents, technological change and obsolescence, product liability lawsuits, and the risk that research and development may not necessarily lead to commercially successful products.

9. Risks Involved with Investing in the Funds – (continued)
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or guarantor of debt instruments or the counterparty to a financial transaction, including derivatives contracts, repurchase agreements or loans of portfolio securities, is unable or unwilling to make timely interest and/or principal payments or to otherwise honor its obligations. Each Fund and its affiliates manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that they believe have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose a Fund to issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of a Fund’s exposure to credit and counterparty risks with respect to those financial assets is approximated by their value recorded in its Statement of Assets and Liabilities. High yield securities may also be subject to greater levels of credit or default risk than higher-rated securities and high yield securities may be less liquid and more difficult to sell at an advantageous time or price or to value than higher-rated securities. In particular, high yield securities are often issued by smaller, less creditworthy companies or by highly leveraged (indebted) companies, which are generally less able than more financially stable companies to make scheduled payments of interest and principal.
ETF Market Risk
In stressed market conditions, the market for certain ETF shares may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the ETF’s underlying portfolio holdings. This adverse effect on liquidity for the ETF’s shares in turn can lead to differences between the market price of the ETF’s shares and the underlying value of those shares. This difference can be reflected as a spread between the bid and ask prices quoted during the day or a premium or discount in the closing price from a Fund’s NAV.
Because a Fund’s shares trade in the secondary market, a broker may charge a commission to execute a transaction in shares and an investor may incur the cost of the spread between the price at which a dealer will buy shares (bid) and the somewhat higher price at which a dealer will sell shares (ask). In addition, not only are there a limited number of institutions that act as authorized participants, direct trading by authorized participants is critical to ensuring that a Fund’s shares trade at or close to NAV. However, market makers are not obligated to make a market in a Fund’s shares nor are authorized participants obligated to execute purchase or redemption orders for Creation Units and, in times of market stress, circumstances could develop that could cause them to refrain from these activities or reduce their role. The absence of an active market in a Fund’s shares could lead to a heightened risk of differences between the market price of the Fund’s shares and the underlying value of those shares. Because securities underlying investments held by a Fund may trade on a foreign exchange that is closed when the Fund’s listing exchange is open, there may be changes between the last quote from the closed foreign market and the value of the securities during the Fund’s domestic trading day, which also could lead to differences between the market price of the Fund’s shares and the underlying value of those shares.
Fund of Funds Risk
Certain Funds’ investment performance, because they are fund of funds, depends on the investment performance of the Underlying ETFs in which they invest. An investment in these Funds is subject to the risk associated with the Underlying ETFs that comprise their portfolio. The Funds will indirectly pay a proportional share of the asset-based fees, if any, of the Underlying ETFs in which they invest.

9. Risks Involved with Investing in the Funds – (continued)
Illiquid Investments Risk
In certain circumstances, it may be difficult for a Fund to purchase and sell particular portfolio investments due to infrequent trading in such investments. The prices of such securities may experience significant volatility, make it more difficult for the Fund to transact significant amounts of such securities without an unfavorable impact on prevailing market prices, or make it difficult for the Advisor or Sub-Advisor, as applicable, to dispose of such securities at a fair price at the time the Advisor or Sub-Advisor believes it is desirable to do so. The Fund’s investments in such securities may restrict the Fund’s ability to take advantage of other market opportunities and adversely affect the value of the Fund’s portfolio holdings. Such investments also may be subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to “circuit breaker” rules.
Management Risk
The Advisor or Sub-Advisor, as applicable, continuously evaluates each Fund’s holdings, purchases and sales with a view to achieving the Fund’s investment objective. However, achievement of the stated investment objective cannot be guaranteed. The Advisor’s or Sub-Advisor’s judgment about the markets, the economy, or companies may not anticipate actual market movements, economic conditions or company performance, and these factors may affect the return on your investment. In fact, no matter how good a job the Advisor or Sub-Advisor does, you could lose money on your investment in a Fund, just as you could with other investments. If the Advisor or Sub-Advisor is incorrect in its assessment of the income, growth or price realization potential of a Fund’s holdings or incorrect in its assessment of general market or economic conditions, then the value of the Fund’s shares may decline.
Market Risk
Investments in securities, in general, are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. A Fund’s investments may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions or changes in interest or currency rates, or particular countries, segments, economic sectors, industries or companies within those markets. Local, regional, or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, uncertainties regarding interest rates, rising inflation, or other events could have a significant impact on the market generally and on specific securities. U.S. and international markets have experienced significant periods of volatility in recent years due to a number of these factors. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic, the large expansion of government deficits and debt as a result of government actions to mitigate the effects of the pandemic, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and the rise of inflation have resulted in extreme volatility in the global economy and in global financial markets. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected. As a result, whether or not a Fund invests in securities of issuers located in or with significant exposure to countries experiencing economic and financial difficulties, the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments may be negatively affected. Changes in market conditions and interest rates generally do not have the same impact on all types of investments. Fluctuations in the value of securities and other financial instruments in which the Fund invests will cause the NAV of the Fund to fluctuate. Historically, the markets have moved in cycles, and the value of the Fund’s investments may fluctuate drastically from day to day. Because of its link to the markets, an investment in the Fund may be more suitable for long-term investors who can bear the risk of short-term principal fluctuations, which at times may be significant.

9. Risks Involved with Investing in the Funds – (continued)
Trading Risk
Shares of each Fund may trade above or below their NAV. The NAV of shares will fluctuate with changes in the market value of a Fund’s holdings. The trading prices of a Fund’s shares will fluctuate in accordance with changes in NAV, as well as market supply and demand. When the market price of a Fund’s shares deviates significantly from their NAV, you may pay significantly more or receive significantly less than the underlying value of the Fund’s shares. However, given that shares can be created and redeemed only in Creation Units at NAV, the Advisor and Sub-Advisor, as applicable, do not believe that large discounts or premiums to NAV will exist for extended periods of time. Although each Fund’s shares are currently listed on the Exchange, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for a Fund’s shares will develop or be maintained. In addition, trading in shares of a Fund may be halted because of market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the Fund’s Exchange, make trading in shares inadvisable.
10. Segment Reporting
Each fund operates in one segment. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is the Advisor’s Fund Oversight Committee. The CODM reviews the operating results of each fund on a consolidated basis as part of making decisions for allocating resources and evaluating performance.
11. Subsequent Events
The Funds have evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of the financial statements and determined that no events have occurred that require additional disclosure.

BOARD REVIEW OF INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT
Renewal of the Sub-Advisory Agreement for the AdvisorShares Ranger Equity Bear ETF
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of AdvisorShares Trust (the “Trust”) held on September 11, 2025, the Board, including those trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) (the “Independent Trustees”), considered and approved the renewal of the sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) between AdvisorShares Investments, LLC (the “Advisor”) and Ranger Alternative Management L.P. (the “Sub-Advisor”), on behalf of the AdvisorShares Ranger Equity Bear ETF (the “Fund”), pursuant to which the Sub-Advisor performs portfolio management and related services.
Pursuant to Section 15 of the 1940 Act, to continue after its initial two-year term, the Sub-Advisory Agreement must be approved annually (i) by the vote of the Board or by a vote of the shareholders of the Fund and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees cast at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. Each year, the Board calls and holds meetings to decide whether to renew the Sub-Advisory Agreement for an additional one-year term. In preparation for the meeting, the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of information from the Sub-Advisor. The Board uses this information, as well as other information that the Advisor, Sub-Advisor and other service providers may submit to the Board at the meetings and over the course of the prior year, to help evaluate the Sub-Advisor’s fee and other aspects of the Sub-Advisory Agreement and decide whether to renew the Sub-Advisory Agreement for an additional year.
As discussed in further detail below, prior to and at the meeting, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, was presented with information to help it evaluate the Sub-Advisor’s fee and other aspects of the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board reviewed written materials from the Advisor and Sub-Advisor regarding, among other things, (i) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Sub-Advisor; (ii) the performance by the Sub-Advisor of its duties; (iii) the investment performance of the Fund; (iv) the costs of the services provided and profits realized by the Sub-Advisor; (v) the potential for economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund’s shareholders; and (vi) any ancillary benefits to the Sub-Advisor. The Board received an overview of the Sub-Advisor’s operations and management of the Fund, including comparative fee data and profitability analysis relating to the Fund, and also was provided with information with respect to compliance oversight. The Board reviewed the management of the Fund, including its strategy, the focus in the markets, the Fund’s positioning in the market, and its attractive and unique offering. The Board reviewed the Sub-Advisor’s overall business generally, including any noteworthy personnel changes.
The Board deliberated on the renewal of the Sub-Advisory Agreement in light of the written materials that it received before the meeting, information it received at the meeting, and information it had received at prior board meetings. In its deliberations, the Board considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the Sub-Advisor and the renewal of the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board did not identify any single piece of information discussed below that was paramount, controlling or determinative of its decision.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Sub-Advisor, the Board reviewed the portfolio management services provided to the Fund. The Board considered, among other things, the professional experience and qualifications of the Sub-Advisor’s senior management and key professional personnel including those individuals responsible for portfolio management; the Sub-Advisor’s operational capabilities and resources; and information concerning its compliance function. The Sub-Advisor’s most recent Form ADV was provided to the Board, as were responses to a detailed series of questions that, among other things, requested information about its business, services, and financial condition. Based on its review, within the context of its full deliberations, the Board determined that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Sub-Advisor.

BOARD REVIEW OF INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Continued)
Performance of the Funds. The Board was provided with information regarding the Fund’s performance for various periods as well as comparative performance information. The Sub-Advisor provided information regarding factors impacting the performance of the Fund, outlining current market conditions, and explaining its expectations and strategies for the future. The Board noted that the Fund is actively managed and that it receives regular reports regarding the Fund’s performance at its quarterly meetings. Based on this information, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the investment results that the Sub-Advisor had been able to achieve for the Fund.
Cost of Services and Profitability. In considering whether the sub-advisory fee payable with respect to the Fund is reasonable, the Board reviewed the sub-advisory fee paid by the Advisor to the Sub-Advisor; the fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed by the Sub-Advisor over the period, as applicable; the costs and other expenses incurred by the Sub-Advisor in providing the services; and the profitability analysis with respect to the Fund. The Board also reviewed information comparing the Fund’s aggregate advisory fee to the aggregate advisory fee paid by comparable funds. Based on its review, in the context of its full deliberations, the Board concluded that the sub-advisory fee appeared to be reasonable in light of the services rendered.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered whether economies of scale were realized, noting any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by the Sub-Advisor. The Board determined to continue to assess on an ongoing basis whether the aggregate advisory fee for the Fund appropriately takes into account any economies of scale that may be realized as a result of any significant asset growth of the Fund.
Ancillary Benefits. The Board noted the potential benefits to be received by the Sub-Advisor as a result of its relationship with the Fund (other than the sub-advisory fee) including the intangible benefits of its association with the Trust generally and any favorable publicity arising in connection with the Fund’s performance.
Conclusion. Based on its deliberations and evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable and agreed to renew the Sub-Advisory Agreement for another year.
