ANNUAL REPORT

WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF

(Unaudited)

To WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF (the “Fund”) Investors,

Operations of the Fund, symbol WLTG, began its operations on December 6, 2021, therefore our comments do not reflect a full year. Since the inception until July 31, 2022 (the Fund’s fiscal year end), the Fund had a Net Asset Value return of -15.41%, compared to a return of -9.18% for the S&P 500® Index. A large cash position in the Fund during the period from inception until July 31, 2022 was the primary reason for the difference in performance of -6.23%.

Based on our analysis of the economy and the trend over the summer, we went to 30% cash at the end of June. Our thought process was to error on the side of caution. In August, the Fund continued to maintain the allocation in cash resulting in reducing the difference in the Fund’s performance going from -6.23% to -2.77% by month end.

The Fund’s performance from inception until July 31, four holdings affected our performance: two negative, Netflix & Facebook; and on the positive side, Goldman Sachs & Bristol-Myers Squibb.

The projected current year average price earnings ratio (“PE”)(1) for the positions in the Fund is approximately 14.3 with a 3 to 5-year expected earnings growth rate of 15.5 resulting in a price/earnings-to-growth ratio (“PEG”)(2) of 0.9.

The S&P 500® has a projected current year PE of 17.6 while it has a 3 to 5-year expected earnings growth rate of 12.3 resulting in a PEG ratio of 1.44. The dividend for the S&P 500® is 0.4% higher than the Fund. Our lower valuations along with our cash position should continue to provide stability for the Fund.

There appears to be continued significant economic headwinds going forward including the following:

The Conference Board of economic leading indicators are trending down; The inverse in the yield curve is a negative indicator; Analysts’ earnings projections are trending downward along with corporate earnings warnings for 3rd. Qtr.; wages are continuing to rise while layoffs are beginning to show up in corporate announcements.

Fund holdings are subject to change and are not a recommendation to buy or sell any securities. Please refer to the Schedule of Investments for a complete list of Fund holdings.

Investing involves risk including the possible loss of principal. The Fund is a new ETF and has a limited history of operations for investors to evaluate.

To the extent the Fund invests in ETFs, the Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any expenses as well as risks. Some of these risks are investments in foreign securities which may involve currency fluctuations, political and social instability, and reduced market liquidity. Investments made in small and mid-capitalization companies may be more volatile and less liquid due to limited resources or product lines and more sensitive to economic factors.

The Fund may invest in inverse ETFs and the value of such investments will decrease when the index underlying the ETF’s benchmark rises, a result that is the opposite from traditional equity or bond funds. The net asset value and market price of an inverse ETF are usually more volatile than the value of the tracked index or of other ETF’s that do not use leverage. This is because inverse ETFs use investment techniques and financial instruments that may be considered aggressive, including the use of derivative transactions which may be more sensitive to changes in market conditions and may amplify the risk of loss to the Fund.

The WealthTrust ETF is distributed by Foreside Fund Services, LLC.

Notes to Financial StatementsJuly 31, 2022

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF (the “Fund”) is a diversified series of ETF Opportunities Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”) which was organized on March 18, 2019 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended as an open-end management investment company. The offering of the Fund’s shares is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Fund commenced operations on December 6, 2021.

The Fund’s objective is to seek long-term growth of capital with a secondary objective of providing dividend income.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies”.

Security Valuation

The Fund records investments at fair value. Generally, the Fund’s domestic securities (including underlying ETFs which hold portfolio securities primarily listed on foreign (non-U.S.) exchanges) are valued each day at the last quoted sales price on each security’s primary exchange. Securities traded or dealt in upon one or more securities exchanges for which market quotations are readily available and not subject to restrictions against resale shall be valued at the last quoted sales price on the primary exchange or, in the absence of a sale on the primary exchange, at the mean between the current bid and ask prices on such exchange. Securities primarily traded in the NASDAQ National Market System for which market quotations are readily available shall be valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. If market quotations are not readily available, securities will be valued at their fair market value as determined in good faith by the Trust’s fair value committee in accordance with procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) and as further described below. Securities that are not traded or dealt in any securities exchange (whether domestic or foreign) and for which over-the-counter market quotations are readily available generally shall be valued at the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale, at the mean between the current bid and ask price on such over-the- counter market.

The Fund has a policy that contemplates the use of fair value pricing to determine the net asset value (“NAV”) per share of the Fund when market prices are unavailable as well as under special circumstances, such as: (i) if the primary

12

ANNUAL REPORT

WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF

Notes to Financial Statements - continuedJuly 31, 2022

market for a portfolio security suspends or limits trading or price movements of the security; and (ii) when an event occurs after the close of the exchange on which a portfolio security is principally traded that is likely to have changed the value of the security. Since most of the Fund’s investments are traded on U.S. securities exchanges, it is anticipated that the use of fair value pricing will be limited.

When the Fund uses fair value pricing to determine the NAV per share of the Fund, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board believes accurately reflects fair value. Any method used will be approved by the Board and results will be monitored to evaluate accuracy. The Fund’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Fund’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing.

The Fund has adopted fair valuation accounting standards that establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. GAAP established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to establish a classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes other significant observable market-based inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the level of inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of July 31, 2022:

Notes to Financial Statements - continuedJuly 31, 2022

Refer to the Fund’s Schedule of Investments for a listing of the securities by type and sector.

There were no transfers into or out of any levels during the period December 6, 2021 to July 31, 2022. The Fund held no Level 3 securities at any time during the period December 6, 2021 to July 31, 2022.

Security Transactions and Income

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The cost of securities sold is determined generally on specific identification basis. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are determined on the basis of identified cost for book and tax purposes. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Fund's understanding of the applicable country's tax rules.

Accounting Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management makes 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, as well as the reported amounts of investment income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund has complied and intends to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders. The Fund also intends to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that it will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains. Therefore, no federal income tax or excise provision is required.

Management has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken in the Fund’s tax returns. The Fund has no examinations in progress and management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Interest and penalties, if any, associated with any federal or state income tax obligations are recorded as income tax expense as incurred.

14

ANNUAL REPORT

WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF

Notes to Financial Statements - continuedJuly 31, 2022

Reclassification of Capital Accounts

GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. For the period ended July 31, 2022, there were no such reclassifications.

Dividends and Distributions

Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid at least annually by the Fund. The Fund distributes its net realized capital gains, if any, to shareholders annually. The Fund may also pay a special distribution at the end of a calendar year to comply with federal tax requirements. All distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Creation Units

The Fund issues and redeems shares to certain institutional investors (typically market makers or other broker-dealers) only in large blocks of at least 25,000 shares known as “Creation Units.” Purchasers of Creation Units (“Authorized Participants”) will be required to pay to Citibank, N.A. (the “Custodian”) a fixed transaction fee (“Creation Transaction Fee”) in connection with creation orders that is intended to offset the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance of Creation Units. The standard Creation Transaction Fee will be the same regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased by an investor on the applicable Business Day. The Creation Transaction Fee charged by the Custodian for each creation order is $250. Authorized Participants wishing to redeem shares will be required to pay to the Custodian a fixed transaction fee (“Redemption Transaction Fee”) to offset the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the redemption of Creation Units. The standard Redemption Transaction Fee will be the same regardless of the number of Creation Units redeemed by an investor on the applicable Business Day. The Redemption Transaction Fee charged by the Custodian for each redemption order is $250.

Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased or redeemed by Authorized Participants. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) participant and, in each case, must have executed an agreement with the Fund’s principal underwriter (the “Distributor”) with respect to creations and redemptions of Creation Units (“Participation Agreement”). Most retail investors

15

ANNUAL REPORT

WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF

Notes to Financial Statements - continuedJuly 31, 2022

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 the 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. The following table discloses the Creation Unit breakdown based on the NAV as of July 31, 2022:

To the extent contemplated by a participant agreement, in the event an Authorized Participant has submitted a redemption request in proper form but is unable to transfer all or part of the shares comprising a Creation Unit to be redeemed to the Distributor, on behalf of the Fund, by the time as set forth in a participant agreement, the Distributor may nonetheless accept the redemption request in reliance on the undertaking by the Authorized Participant to deliver the missing shares as soon as possible, which undertaking shall be secured by the Authorized Participant’s delivery and maintenance of collateral equal to a percentage of the value of the missing shares as specified in the participant agreement. A participant agreement may permit the Fund to use such collateral to purchase the missing shares, and could subject an Authorized Participant to liability for any shortfall between the cost of the Fund acquiring such shares and the value of the collateral. Amounts are disclosed as Segregated Cash Balance from Authorized Participants for Deposit Securities and Collateral Payable upon Return of Deposit Securities on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable.

Officers and Trustees Indemnification

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund. However, based on experience, the Fund expects that risk of loss to be remote.

NOTE 4 – DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND TAX COMPONENTS OF CAPITAL

Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

The tax character of distributions during the period ended July 31, 2022 were as follows:

Distributions paid from: 

Ordinary income

$158

As of July 31, 2022, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

Accumulated undistributed net investment income (loss)

$11,341

Accumulated net realized gain (loss) on investments

(761,265

)

Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments

(49,878

)

 

$(799,802

)

As of July, 31, 2022, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $761,265. This loss carryforward is considered short term and may be carried forward indefinitely.

Cost of securities for Federal Income tax purpose and the related tax-based net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) consists of:

NOTE 5 – TRANSACTIONS IN SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

Shares of the Fund are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”), and trade at market prices rather than at NAV. Shares of the Fund may trade at a price that is greater than, at, or less than NAV. The Fund will issue and redeem shares at NAV only in large blocks of 25,000 shares (each block of shares is called a “Creation Unit”). Creation Units are issued and redeemed for cash and/or in-kind for securities. Individual shares may only be purchased and sold in secondary market transactions through brokers. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, the shares are not redeemable securities of the Fund.

All orders to create Creation Units must be placed with the Fund’s distributor or transfer agent either (1) through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the NSCC (“Clearing Process”), a clearing agency that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), by a “Participating Party,” i.e., a broker-dealer or other participant in the Clearing Process; or (2) outside the Clearing Process by a DTC Participant. In each case, the Participating Party or the DTC Participant must have executed an agreement with the Distributor with respect to creations and redemptions of Creation Units (“Participation Agreement”); such parties are collectively referred to as “APs” or “Authorized Participants.” Investors should contact the Distributor for the names of Authorized Participants. All Fund shares, whether created through or outside the Clearing Process, will be entered on the records of DTC for the account of a DTC Participant.

Shares of beneficial interest transactions for the Fund were:

NOTE 6- RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND

As with all funds, a shareholder is subject to the risk that an investment on the Fund could lose money. The principal risks affecting shareholders’ investments in the Fund are set forth below. These risks may impact the Fund directly or indirectly through the Fund’s investments in ETFs. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any government agency.

20

ANNUAL REPORT

WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF

Notes to Financial Statements - continuedJuly 31, 2022

Equity Securities Risk. Since it purchases equity securities, the Fund is subject to the risk that stock prices will fall over short or extended periods of time. Historically, the equity markets have moved in cycles, and the value of the Fund’s equity securities may fluctuate from day to day. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by such companies may suffer a decline in response. These factors contribute to price volatility, which is a principal risk of investing in the Fund.

Market Risk. The value of securities in the Fund’s overall portfolio will fluctuate and, as a result, the Fund’s share price may decline suddenly or over a sustained period.

Management Risk. The strategies used by the Advisor may fail to produce the intended result.

Large Cap Risk. Larger, more established companies may be unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies during periods of economic expansion.

Mid Cap Company Risk. The Fund’s investments in ETFs may expose the Fund to the risks associated with investing in mid cap companies. There may be greater risk in investing in medium-capitalization companies rather than larger, more established companies due to such factors as inexperienced management and limited product lines or financial resources. It may also be difficult or impossible to liquidate a security position at a time and price acceptable to the Fund because of the potentially less frequent trading of stocks of smaller market capitalization.

Small Cap Company Risk. The Fund’s investments in ETFs may expose the Fund to the risks associated with investing in small cap companies. Investing in smaller companies may pose additional risks. For example, it is often more difficult to value or dispose of small company stocks and more difficult to obtain information about smaller companies than about larger companies. Furthermore, smaller companies often have limited product lines, operating histories, markets and/or financial resources, may be dependent on one or a few key persons for management, and can be more susceptible to losses. Moreover, the prices of their stocks may be more volatile than stocks of larger, more established companies, particularly during times of market turmoil.

Risks of Investment Selection. The Fund’s investment success depends on the skill of the Advisor in evaluating, selecting, and monitoring the portfolio assets. If the Advisor’s conclusions about growth rates or securities values are incorrect, the Fund may not perform as anticipated.

21

ANNUAL REPORT

WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF

Notes to Financial Statements - continuedJuly 31, 2022

Quantitative Analysis and Tactical Trend Model Risk. The risk that investments selected using trend and quantitative analysis methodology may perform more poorly than the market as a whole or from their expected performance. There can be no assurance that use of trend and quantitative analysis to create tactical investment models will enable the Fund to achieve positive returns or outperform the market.

Growth Style Risk. Growth stocks may be more susceptible to earnings disappointments, and the market may not favor growth-style investing. In addition, there may be periods during which the investment performance of the Fund while using a growth strategy may suffer.

Value Style Risk. The Fund’s investments in ETFs may expose the Fund to the risks associated with investing in value stocks. Value stocks present the risk that the securities may never reach what the Advisor believes are their full market values, either because the market fails to recognize what the Advisor considers to be the security’s true value or because the Advisor misjudged that value. In addition, there may be periods during which the investment performance of the Fund while using a value strategy may suffer.

Exchange Traded Fund Risk. To the extent that the Fund invests in ETFs, the Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any expenses (such as operating expenses and advisory fees) that may be paid by the underlying funds. These expenses would be in addition to the advisory fee and other expenses that the Fund bears in connection with its own operations. Investment in an ETF carries security specific risk and the market risk. Also, if the area of the market representing the underlying index or benchmark does not perform as expected for any reason, the value of the investment in the ETF may decline. In addition, due to transactions via market prices rather than at net asset value, the performance of an ETF may not completely replicate the performance of the underlying index.

Gold-Related Risk. The Fund’s investments in ETFs may expose the Fund to gold-related risk. Investments tied to the price of gold are considered speculative. The Fund’s investments in instruments tied to the price of gold may fluctuate substantially over short periods of time or subject the Fund to greater volatility than other types of investments due to many factors, such as changes in inflation or inflation expectations, the supply of gold, commercial and industrial demand for gold, purchases or sales of gold by entities such as governments or central banks, other actions by governments such as monetary policy changes or restrictions on ownership, investment speculation, or other economic, financial or political factors.

22

WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF

Notes to Financial Statements - continuedJuly 31, 2022

Fixed Income Market Risks. The Fund’s investments in ETFs may expose the Fund to fixed income market risk. Economic and other market developments can adversely affect the fixed income securities markets. At times, participants in these markets may develop concerns about the ability of certain issuers of debt instruments to make timely principal and interest payments, or they may develop concerns about the ability of financial institutions that make markets in certain debt instruments to facilitate an orderly market. Those concerns could cause increased volatility and reduced liquidity in particular securities or in the overall fixed income markets and the related derivatives markets. A lack of liquidity or other adverse credit market conditions may hamper the fund’s ability to sell the debt instruments in which it invests or to find and purchase suitable debt instruments.

Interest Rate Risk. The Fund’s investments in ETFs may expose the Fund to interest rate risk. The prices of, and the income generated by, debt instruments held by the Fund may be affected by changes in interest rates. A rise in interest rates typically causes the price of a fixed rate debt instrument to fall and its yield to rise. Conversely, a decline in interest rates typically causes the price of a fixed rate debt instrument to rise and the yield to fall. Generally, funds with longer weighted average maturities and durations carry greater interest rate risk. Changes in monetary policy made by central banks and/or governments such as the discontinuation and replacement of benchmark rates are likely to affect the level of interest rates.

Credit Quality Risk. The Fund’s investments in ETFs may expose the Fund to credit quality risk. An issuer of a debt instrument could suffer an adverse change in financial condition that results in a payment default (failure to make scheduled interest or principal payments), rating downgrade, or inability to meet a financial obligation. The Fund’s investments should have relatively low credit risk because they will invest only in securities backed by the U.S. government and other investments involving such securities.

Sector Risk. Sector risk is the possibility that securities within the same group of industries will decline in price due to sector-specific market or economic developments. If the Fund invests more heavily in a sector, the value of its shares may be especially sensitive to factors and economic risks that specifically affect that sector.

ETF Structure Risk. The Fund is structured as an ETF and as a result is subject to special risks, including:

Trading Issues Risk. Although it is expected that shares of the Fund will remain listed for trading on NYSE Arca (the “Exchange”), trading in Fund shares on the Exchange may be halted due to market conditions

23

ANNUAL REPORT

WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF

Notes to Financial Statements - continuedJuly 31, 2022

or for reasons that, in the view of the Exchange, make trading in Fund shares inadvisable, such as extraordinary market volatility. There can be no assurance that Fund shares will continue to meet the listing requirements of the Exchange or will trade with any volume. There is no guarantee that an active secondary market will develop for shares of the Fund. In stressed market conditions, the liquidity of shares of the Fund may begin to mirror the liquidity of the Fund’s underlying portfolio holdings, which can be significantly less liquid than shares of the Fund. This adverse effect on liquidity for the Fund’s shares in turn could lead to differences between the market price of the Fund’s shares and the underlying value of those Shares.

Market Price Variance Risk. The market prices of shares of the Fund will fluctuate in response to changes in the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) and supply and demand for Fund shares and will include a “bid-ask spread” charged by the exchange specialists, market makers or other participants that trade the particular security. There may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. This means that Fund shares may trade at a discount to NAV. The market price of Shares may deviate from the value of the Fund’s underlying portfolio holdings, particularly in times of market stress, with the result that investors may pay significantly more or receive significantly less than the underlying value of the shares of the Fund bought or sold.

Authorized Participants (“APs”), Market Makers, and Liquidity Providers Risk. The Fund has a limited number of financial institutions that may act as APs. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, shares of the Fund may trade at a material discount to NAV and possibly face delisting: (i) APs exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other APs step forward to perform these services, or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions.

Costs of Buying or Selling Shares of the Fund. Due to the costs of buying or selling shares of the Fund, including brokerage commissions imposed by brokers and bid/ask spreads, frequent trading of shares of the Fund may significantly reduce investment results and an investment in shares of the Fund may not be advisable for investors who anticipate regularly making small investments.

24

ANNUAL REPORT

WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF

Notes to Financial Statements - continuedJuly 31, 2022

New Fund Risk. The Fund is a new ETF and has only recently commenced operations. As a new fund, there can be no assurance that the Fund will grow to or maintain an economically viable size, in which case it could ultimately liquidate. The Fund’s distributor does not maintain a secondary market in the Fund’s shares. If the Fund does not grow its assets to a viable level it may be difficult for the Advisor to implement the Fund’s investment strategies and achieve the desired portfolio diversification.

New Advisor Risk. The Advisor has not previously managed an ETF, but the Advisor has experience managing assets employing the Fund’s investment strategy. The Fund’s sub-advisor has experience managing the day-to-day Creation and/or Redemption basketing processing for an ETF.

Other Risks for the Fund

Market Disruption and Geopolitical Events. Geopolitical and other events, such as war, terrorist attacks, natural disasters, epidemics or pandemics could result in unplanned or significant securities market closures, volatility or declines. Russia’s recent military invasion of Ukraine and the resulting broad-ranging economic sanctions imposed by the United States and other countries, as well as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, may continue to disrupt securities markets and adversely affect global economies and companies, thereby decreasing the value of the Fund’s investments. Additionally, sudden or significant changes in the supply or prices of commodities or other economic inputs may have material and unexpected effects on both global securities markets and individual countries, regions, industries, or companies, which could reduce the value of the Fund’s investments.

Cyber Security Risk. Failures or breaches of the electronic systems of the Advisor and the Fund’s other service providers, market makers, Authorized Participants, or the issuers of securities in which the Fund invests have the ability to cause disruptions and negatively impact the Fund’s business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses to the Fund and its shareholders. While the Fund has established business continuity plans and risk management systems seeking to address system breaches or failures, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems. Furthermore, the Fund cannot control the cyber security plans and systems of the Fund’s service providers, market makers, Authorized Participants, or issuers of securities in which the Fund invests.

Board of Trustees of ETF
Opportunities Trust

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of WealthTrust DBS Long Term Growth ETF (the “Fund”), a series of ETF Opportunities Trust, as of July 31, 2022, the related statements of operations and changes in net assets, the related notes, and the financial highlights for the period December 6, 2021 (commencement of operations) through July 31, 2022 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of July 31, 2022, the results of its operations, changes in net assets, and the financial highlights for the period December 6, 2021 (commencement of operations) through July 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and broker. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Fund’s auditor since 2021.

Fund Expenses (unaudited)

Fund Expenses Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions on purchases and sales of Fund shares, and (2) other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period, February 1, 2022 and held for the six months ended July 31, 2022.

Actual Expenses Example

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

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 brokerage commissions on purchases and sales of Fund shares. 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.
