INSPIRE ETF SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT

 

SHAREHOLDER LETTER (unaudited)

 

Dear Shareholders:

 

We are honored to present you with the Semi-Annual Report for the Inspire Investing suite of Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) as of May 31,2023.

 

We believe the past 6 months ended May 31, 2023 has been a period of the markets building a base that is preparing us for the official end of the bear market of 2022 and the start of the next bull market. We also believe long-term investors will be rewarded for holding steady to their long term goals in the face of all the bad news and volatility that we have endured in the past year. It looked like the new bull market got started right out of the gate in January 2023 but that strong rally only lasted about 6 to 8 weeks before the momentum turned negative for the next few months. Support held in late May and we did not see a massive sell off as some pundits were expecting another bear market wave down of -30% or more. Although we still face several headwinds in the next 6 months the next bull market could be just around the corner. Whatever challenges we may face this year we know they will not be a surprise to our Heavenly Father so our faith will remain steadfast in Him.

 

We are thankful that the Lord has been faithful during the past 6 months and provided for our needs in amazing ways for His Glory. In the past 6 months, God continued to bless Inspire and has opened many opportunities to expand the biblically responsible investing (BRI) movement. We remain thankful as well for you, our shareholders, for being part of the BRI movement through the Inspire ETFs. We could not do what we do without you, and we sincerely appreciate the trust you have placed in Inspire by investing in one or more of the Inspire ETFs.

 

BLES – Inspire Global Hope ETF

 

The market started out strong but weakened during the last half of the past 6 months, providing a bumpy ride for the fund. What that means is after moving up in the month of January and reversing course to fall during February and March BLES started to move back up in April to only turn down again in May to finish down for the past 6 months ended May 31, 2023, -1.05% on a market price basis and -0.96% on the NAV.

 

ISMD -Inspire Small/Mid Cap ETF

 

The small-cap and mid-cap markets underperformed the US large-cap markets over the past 6 months ended May 31, 2023 with ISMD being down only -5.30% on a market price basis and -6.03% on the NAV.

 

IBD – Inspire Corporate Bond ETF

 

As the fear of inflation subsided and the expectation that the Federal Reserve was close to ending their interest rate increase cycle allowed the yield curve to recede slightly from the peak we saw at the start of the year. This falling yield curve allowed the fixed income markets to outperform the equity markets as the negative correlation between equities and fixed income came back in favor and gave positive total returns for IBD over the past 6 months. For the 6 months ended May 31, 2023, IBD was up 1.94% on a market price basis and up 2.30% on the NAV.

1

 

BIBL – Inspire 100 ETF

 

BIBL participated in the mini correction in the US large cap markets to finish the past 6 months ended May 31,2023 with a negative return of -2.97% on a market price basis and -3.16% on the NAV.

 

WWJD – Inspire International ETF

 

The correction we saw in the US domestic equity markets over the past 6 months was not evident in the international developed countries or emerging markets. International and emerging markets had positive performance in a strong divergence with the negative moves in the US equity markets. For the 6 months ended May 31, 2023, WWJD was up 2.37% on a market price basis and up 2.96% on the NAV.

 

RISN – Inspire Tactical Balanced ETF

 

RISN holds an 80% exposure to US large cap stocks and 20% to US fixed income during normal market conditions but the last 6 months have not been normal markets. RISN remained in a defensive allocation over the past several months, ending the most recent fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2023 with an allocation of 60% US large cap stocks/40% US fixed income/Cash. Even with having a more conservative stance RISN still experienced negative performance in the 6 months ended May 31, 2023. RISN was down -2.73% on a market price basis and down -2.38% on the NAV.

 

GLRY – Inspire Faithward Mid Cap Momentum ETF

 

GLRY is focused on US mid cap stocks that the manager believes have the potential of outperformance over a market cycle when momentum factors are in favor. Momentum factors seemed to suffer less than the broader mid cap market in the 6 months ended May 31, 2023, as GLRY was down -2.92% on a market price basis and -2.96% on the NAV.

 

FDLS – Inspire Fidelis Multi Factor ETF

 

FDLS is focused on global stocks across all capitalization categories that the index manager believes have the potential of outperformance based on a multi factor analysis approach. Due to an overweight to US equity markets vs International and Emerging Markets stocks FDLS saw negative performance in the 6 months ended May 31, 2022, as FDLS was down -5.37% on a market price basis and -4.97% on the NAV.

 

Note: None of the Inspire ETFs use derivatives. Although Inspire doesn’t have a policy or practice of maintaining a specified level of distributions or yield payout to shareholders, we pay out income monthly from the Fixed Income fund and quarterly from the Equity funds. All funds continue to be invested in ways that are consistent with the stated objectives and investment strategy detailed in each fund’s prospectus.

 

Closing Comments

 

Although the 6 months ended May 31, 2023 have been full of challenges as well as a shallow correction in the capital markets bringing negative performance, we know that our God is still on the throne as our Provider. We are grateful to God our Father, for His provision and wisdom in good times as well as these present challenging times. We cannot be certain of what the future holds but we remain confident in the one that holds the future. Even with all of the bad news in the media we remain thankful to be a part of the mission of making a positive impact in the world through our ETFs alongside you, our brothers and sisters in Christ and fellow shareholders.

The views in this report were those of the Author as of May 31, 2023 and may not reflect their views on the date that this report is first published or anytime thereafter. These views are intended to assist shareholders in understanding their investments and do not constitute investment advice.

 

There is no guarantee that the Funds will achieve their objectives, generate positive returns, or avoid losses.

 

Biblically Responsible Investment Risk. The Funds utilize related biblical values screening criteria in selecting its component securities. As a result of its strategy, a Fund’s exclusion of securities of certain issuers for nonfinancial reasons may cause the Fund to forgo some market opportunities available to funds that do not use these criteria. This could be due to biblically responsible companies falling out of favor with investors or failing to perform as well as companies that do not screen favorably.

 

ETF shares are not redeemable with the issuing fund other than in large Creation Unit aggregations. Instead, investors must buy or sell ETF Shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a stockbroker. In doing so, the investor may incur brokerage commissions and may pay more than net asset value when buying and receive less than net asset value when selling. Certain Funds track an underlying index and may focus their investments in securities of a particular industry to the extent the underlying index does. This may cause those Funds’ net asset value to fluctuate more than that of a fund that does not focus in a particular industry.

 

Certain of the Funds are not actively managed, and the Adviser will not sell shares of an equity security of those Funds due to current or projected underperformance of a security, industry or sector, unless that security is removed from the underlying index or the selling of shares of that security is otherwise required upon a rebalancing of the underlying index as addressed in its methodology. Tracking error may occur because of imperfect correlation between a Fund’s holdings of portfolio securities and those in the underlying index. Certain Funds’ use of a representative sampling approach, if used, could result in its holding a smaller number of securities than are in the underlying index. To the extent the assets in the Funds are smaller, these risks will be greater.

The Fund’s per share net asset value or NAV is the value of one share of the Fund as calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing shares. The NAV return is based on the NAV of the Fund and the market return is based on the market price per share of the Fund. Market Price and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at Market Price and NAV, respectively. The Fund’s adviser has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or absorb expenses of the Fund until at least March 31, 2024 to ensure that total annual fund operating expenses after fee waiver and/or reimbursement (exclusive of any front-end or contingent deferred loads, taxes, brokerage fees and commissions, borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short), acquired fund fees and expenses, fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including for example option and swap fees and expenses), or extraordinary expenses such as litigation) will not exceed 0.80% of average daily net assets. This fee waiver and expense reimbursement is subject to possible recoupment from the Fund if such recoupment does not cause the Fund’s expense ratio (after the repayment is taken into account) to exceed both: (i) the Fund’s expense cap in place at the time such expenses were waived, and (ii) the Fund’s current expense cap at the time of recoupment. This agreement may be terminated by the Board of Trustees only on 60 days’ written notice to the Fund’s adviser. The Fund’s total annual operating expenses (gross) are 1.28% per the March 30, 2023 prospectus.
