Market Environment Overview

(unaudited)

 

Developed international equity markets, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index, were roughly flat for the 12-month fiscal period ending March 31, 2022 (the “period”), returning only 1.16% in U.S. dollar (“USD”) terms.

International currency market performance was mixed during the period, although the USD broadly strengthened relative to a basket of global currencies. The euro (“EUR”) steadily weakened against the USD during the period, as the European region generally saw slower economic growth than the U.S. Although not in Europe, this effect was even more pronounced in the Japanese yen (“JPY”), which was being suppressed by the Bank of Japan in an attempt to stimulate economic growth while the rest of the global economy was overheating. The JPY weakened slightly for most of the period, though it sold off considerably in March 2022, the final month of the period. The British pound sterling fluctuated during the period but also weakened versus the USD, alongside the JPY and EUR.

Developed international equities increased their value for most of the period as the global economy continued its recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic that began in 2020. Vaccine accessibility established confidence in global markets as regional economies steadily began to reopen, promoting a revival in cyclical sectors that had been suppressed the prior year. The pace of economic growth improved during 2021, along with the inflation rates around the world, amid a global backdrop of accommodative policy. However, several headwinds in the first quarter of 2022 forced international equities to give up most of their gains from the previous nine months.

During the second quarter of 2021, markets gradually moved higher, with the MSCI EAFE Index returning 5.17% in USD terms. This was mainly due to the improved outlook for economic growth amid vaccine accessibility. The developed international economic region has significant concentration in cyclical sectors tied to overall levels of economic growth, so the improved economic outlook contributed positively to performance.

The third quarter of 2021 was more tempered than the previous quarter. The MSCI EAFE Index was flat during the quarter in USD terms, and early summertime optimism faded as new and potentially more infectious COVID-19 variants appeared and spread throughout the world. This ignited fear of renewed “lockdowns”, questions of vaccine efficacy, and threatened the ongoing economic recovery.

However, investors’ concerns quickly abated during the fourth quarter of 2021. Fears of systemic impacts from the downturn in the Chinese real estate markets briefly sent markets into negative territory, but they finished 2021 strong once their contagion concerns were allayed. Developed international markets ultimately finished the quarter in positive territory, returning 2.69% on a USD basis.

With 2021 in rearview, investors began 2022 with several concerns that led to risk-off sentiments in the first quarter of 2022. At the forefront were concerns about runaway inflation, and the expectation that global central banks would have to quickly intervene with restrictive monetary policy actions to temper rising inflation. Interest rates around the world rose quickly as bonds sold-off, and the U.S. Federal Reserve raised its target federal funds rate for the first time since slashing it to 0% at the onset of the pandemic in 2020.

Inflationary and interest rate concerns temporarily took a backseat halfway through the first quarter of 2022, as geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine escalated into war. Investor risk-on sentiment deteriorated, and equities declined for several weeks as markets assessed the developments and prospects for resolution.

As a result, international equities sold off in the first quarter of 2022, owing to the near certainty of several upcoming interest rate hikes amid a tightening cycle and geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine. The MSCI EAFE Index fell nearly 6% in dollar terms, although it regained some ground from its -15% low on March 8, 2022.

Many of these risk factors remain paramount, and global financial market performance will be heavily dependent on developments in the war between Russia and Ukraine, economic data, and upcoming central bank activity.

Each WisdomTree Fund’s performance as set forth in “Management’s Discussion of Funds’ Performance” in the pages that follow should also be viewed in light of the foregoing market environment.

Information about Performance and Shareholder Expense Examples (unaudited)

Performance

The performance tables on the following pages are provided for comparative purposes and represent the period noted. Each Fund’s per share net asset value (“NAV”) is the value of one share of the Fund and is calculated by dividing the value of total assets less total liabilities by the number of shares outstanding. The NAV return is based on the NAV of the Fund and the market price return is based on the market price per share of the Fund. The price used to calculate market price returns is the midpoint of the bid and ask price for Fund shares as of the close of trading on the exchange where Fund shares are listed. NAV and market price returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at NAV and market price, respectively. As with other exchange traded funds (“ETFs”), NAV returns and market price returns may differ because of factors such as the supply and demand for Fund shares and investors’ assessments of the underlying value of a Fund’s portfolio securities.

Fund shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from a Fund. Fund NAV returns are calculated using a Fund’s daily 4:00 p.m. eastern time NAV. Market price returns reflect the midpoint of the bid and ask price as of the close of trading on the exchange where Fund shares are listed. Market price returns do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. The returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. Total returns for a period of less than one year are cumulative.

Performance is historical and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Investment returns and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. For the most recent month-end performance information visit www.wisdomtree.com.

An index is a statistical measure of a specified financial market or sector. An index does not actually hold a portfolio of securities, incur expenses or pay any transaction costs. Therefore, index returns do not reflect deductions for fees or expenses and an index is not available for direct investment. In comparison, the Funds’ performance is negatively impacted by these deductions. Fund returns do not reflect brokerage commissions or taxes on transactions in Fund shares or taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Shareholder Expense Examples

Each Fund’s performance table is accompanied by a shareholder expense example. As a shareholder of a WisdomTree Fund, you incur two types of cost: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions on purchases and sales of your Fund shares and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from October 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022. Except where noted, expenses are calculated using each Fund’s annualized expense ratio (after the effect of contractual or voluntary fee waivers, if any), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by 182/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The annualized expense ratio does not include acquired fund fees and expenses (“AFFEs”), which are fees and expenses incurred indirectly by a Fund through its investments in certain underlying investment companies.

Actual expenses

The first line in the shareholder expense example table shown on the following pages 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 for your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes

The second line in the shareholder expense example table shown on the following pages 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 your 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 paid on purchases and sales of Fund shares. Therefore, the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing Fund 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.

The WisdomTree Europe Hedged Equity Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree Europe Hedged Equity Index (the “Index”). In seeking to track the Index, the Fund invests in European dividend-paying companies while at the same time hedging exposure to the fluctuations of the value of the euro relative to the U.S. dollar. The Fund generally uses a representative sampling strategy to achieve its investment objective, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of securities in the Index.

The Fund returned 4.04% at net asset value (“NAV”) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 (for more complete performance information please see the table below). The Fund benefited from its positions in Consumer Discretionary, Information Technology and Consumer Staples, almost entirely due to stock selection effects. Stock selection in the Energy, Industrials and Utilities sectors weighed negatively on performance for the Fund. When analyzing performance by country, exposures within Finland and Spain weighed negatively on performance the most, due to stock selection. Netherlands and Ireland were top performance contributors primarily due to stock selection. The Fund’s use of foreign currency contracts to hedge euro currency exposure contributed to performance due to the overall appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the euro during the fiscal year.

The WisdomTree Europe Hedged SmallCap Equity Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree Europe Hedged SmallCap Equity Index (the “Index”). In seeking to track the Index, the Fund invests in European small-cap dividend-paying companies while at the same time hedging exposure to fluctuations of the value of the euro relative to the U.S. dollar. The Fund generally uses a representative sampling strategy to achieve its investment objective, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of securities in the Index.

The WisdomTree Germany Hedged Equity Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree Germany Hedged Equity Index (the “Index”). In seeking to track the Index, the Fund invests in German dividend-paying companies with an exporter tilt while at the same time hedging exposure to fluctuations of the value of the euro relative to the U.S. dollar. The Fund generally uses a representative sampling strategy to achieve its investment objective, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of securities in the Index.

The Fund returned 0.50% at net asset value (“NAV”) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 (for more complete performance information please see the table below). The Fund benefited from its positions in Industrials due to positive stock selection, Consumer Discretionary due to allocation and stock selection effects and Utilities due to a combination of both. Positions in Financials and Materials weighed negatively on performance for the Fund, due to stock selection effects within Financials and a combination of both poor stock selection and allocation effects within Materials. The Fund’s use of foreign currency contracts to hedge euro currency exposure contributed to performance due to the overall appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the euro during the fiscal year.

The WisdomTree International Hedged Quality Dividend Growth Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree International Hedged Quality Dividend Growth Index (the “Index”). In seeking to track the Index, the Fund invests in dividend-paying companies with growth characteristics in developed countries, excluding U.S. and Canada, while at the same time hedging exposure to fluctuations of the value of the applicable foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. The Fund generally uses a representative sampling strategy to achieve its investment objective, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of securities in the Index.

The Fund returned 7.93% at net asset value (“NAV”) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 (for more complete performance information please see the table below). The Fund benefited from its positions in Materials, Health Care and Information Technology, due to stock selection effects within each sector. Positions in the Energy, Financials and Consumer Discretionary sectors weighed negatively on performance for the Fund, as a result of asset allocation effects in Consumer Discretionary, poor stock selection effects in Financials, and a combination of the two in Energy. When analyzing performance by country, exposures within Australia and Spain weighed negatively on performance the most, almost entirely due to poor stock selection effects. United Kingdom and Germany were top performance contributors due to allocation and stock selection effects in both sectors. The Fund’s use of foreign currency contracts contributed positively to Fund performance as a result of the overall strengthening of the U.S. dollar against applicable international currencies during the fiscal year.

The WisdomTree Japan Hedged Equity Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree Japan Hedged Equity Index (the “Index”). The Fund seeks to provide Japanese equity returns while mitigating or “hedging” against fluctuations between the value of the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar. In seeking to track the Index, the Fund invests in Japanese dividend-paying companies with an exporter tilt while at the same time hedging exposure to fluctuations of the value of the Japanese yen relative to the U.S. dollar. The Fund generally uses a representative sampling strategy to achieve its investment objective, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of securities in the Index.

The Fund returned 8.79% at net asset value (“NAV”) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 (for more complete performance information please see the table below). The Fund benefited from its positions in Industrials, Communication Services and Financials, due to allocation and stock selection effects. Industrials’ contribution was entirely due to positive stock selection effects. Positions in the Materials, Real Estate and Utilities sectors were all positive contributors as well, but had the most negligible impacts of all sector exposures. When analyzing performance by earnings yield attribution, the 2nd and 4th quintiles of companies ranked by earnings yield weighed negatively on performance the most, owing to poorer stock selection effects. The companies with 1st and 5th quintiles were top performance contributors due to allocation effects, where the Fund was overweight the former and significantly underweight the latter. The Fund’s use of foreign currency contracts contributed positively to Fund performance as a result of the U.S. dollar strengthening against the Japanese yen during the fiscal year.

The WisdomTree Japan Hedged SmallCap Equity Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree Japan Hedged SmallCap Equity Index (the “Index”). In seeking to track the Index, the Fund invests in Japanese small-cap dividend-paying companies while at the same time hedging exposure to fluctuations of the value of the Japanese yen relative to the U.S. dollar. The Fund generally uses a representative sampling strategy to achieve its investment objective, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of securities in the Index.

The Fund returned -1.80% at net asset value (“NAV”) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 (for more complete performance information please see the table below). The Fund benefited from its positions in Information Technology, Materials and Health Care, due to stock selection effects within each sector. Positions in the Real Estate, Consumer Discretionary and Industrials sectors weighed negatively on performance for the Fund, due to stock selection effects in Consumer Discretionary and Industrials and allocation effects in the Real Estate sector. When analyzing performance by earnings yield attribution, underweighting companies with negative earnings yield and the lowest earnings yields (5th quintile) contributed positively to performance the most, as a result of a combination of allocation and stock selection effects. Only the companies within the 3rd quintile detracted from performance, though its impact was modest. The Fund’s use of foreign currency contracts contributed positively to Fund performance as a result of the U.S. dollar strengthening against the Japanese yen during the fiscal year.

Description of Terms and Indexes (unaudited)

Below are descriptions of certain terms and of each Index referenced in this report:

Allocation Effect measures an investment manager’s ability to effectively allocate a portfolio’s assets to various segments. A segment refers to assets or securities that are grouped within a certain classification such as sectors, industries, or countries. The allocation effect determines whether the overweighting or underweighting of segments relative to a benchmark contributes positively or negatively to the overall portfolio return. Positive allocation occurs when the portfolio is overweighted in a segment that outperforms the benchmark and underweighted in a segment that underperforms the benchmark. Negative allocation occurs when the portfolio is overweighted in a segment that underperforms the benchmark and underweighted in a segment that outperforms the benchmark.

Growth is generally characterized by higher price levels relative to fundamentals, such as dividends or earnings. Price levels are higher because investors are willing to pay more due to their expectations of future improvements in these fundamentals.

The MSCI EAFE Local Currency Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure developed market equity performance, excluding the U.S. and Canada, calculated in local currency.

The MSCI European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) Local Currency Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of the developed market countries within the EMU. The securities are priced in local currency terms with no conversion into U.S. dollars.

The MSCI European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) Small Cap Local Currency Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that captures small cap representation across the 10 Developed Market countries in the EMU and is calculated in local currency.

The MSCI EMU Small Cap Index captures small-cap representation across the 10 developed markets countries in the European Economic and Monetary Union (“EMU”).

The MSCI Germany Local Currency Index is a capitalization weighted index that measures the performance of the Germany equity market and provides local currency returns, which are not translated back to U.S. dollars.

The MSCI Germany Index is designed to measure the performance of the large- and mid-cap segments of the German market. With 61 constituents, the index covers about 85% of the equity universe in Germany.

The MSCI Japan Index is a capitalization weighted index that is comprised of stocks in Japan.

The MSCI Japan Local Currency Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure developed market equity performance in Japan and calculated in local currency.

The MSCI Japan Small Cap Local Currency Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of small cap stocks within Japan and calculated in local currency.

The MSCI Japan Small Cap Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the performance of small cap stocks within Japan.

Quality is generally characterized by higher efficiency and profitability. Typical measures include earnings, return-on-equity, return on assets, operating profitability as well as others. This term is also related to the quality factor, which associates these stock characteristics with excess returns vs. the market over time.

Return-on-Equity (ROE) measures a corporation’s profitability by revealing how much profit a company generates with the money shareholders have invested.

Risk-on and Risk-off refers to investors’ appetites for risk which rise and fall over time. During periods when risk is perceived as low, the risk-on risk-off theory states that

Description of Terms and Indexes (unaudited) (continued)

 

investors tend to engage in higher-risk investments (i.e., “Risk-on”). When risk is perceived to be high, investors have the tendency to gravitate toward lower-risk investments (i.e., “Risk-off”).

Selection Effect measures an investment manager’s ability to select securities within a given segment relative to a benchmark. The over or underperformance of the portfolio is weighted by the benchmark weight, therefore, selection is not affected by the investment manager’s allocation to the segment. The weight of the segment in the portfolio determines the size of the effect—the larger the segment, the larger the effect is, positive or negative. A positive selection effect occurs when the portfolio return is greater than the benchmark return. Thus, the investment manager made good decisions in selecting securities that, as a whole, outperformed similar securities in the benchmark. A negative selection effect occurs when the portfolio return is less than the benchmark return. Thus, the investment manager made poor decisions in selecting securities that, as a whole, underperformed similar securities in the benchmark.

The WisdomTree DEFA International Hedged Equity Index is a dividend weighted index designed to provide exposure to developed world, non-U.S. equity securities while at the same time neutralizing exposure to fluctuations between the value of the U.S. dollar and non-U.S. currencies reflected in the index. This index is based on the WisdomTree International Equity Index.

The WisdomTree Europe Hedged Equity Index is designed to provide exposure to European equities while at the same time neutralizing exposure to fluctuations between the Euro and the U.S. dollar.

The WisdomTree Europe Hedged SmallCap Equity Index is designed to provide exposure to the European equity markets while at the same time neutralizing exposure to fluctuations of the Euro movements relative to U.S. dollar.

The WisdomTree Germany Hedged Equity Index is designed to provide exposure to Germany equity markets while at the same time neutralizing exposure to fluctuations of the Euro movements relative to the U.S. dollar. In this sense, the Index “hedges” against fluctuations in the relative value of the Euro against the U.S. dollar.

The WisdomTree International Hedged Quality Dividend Growth Index is designed to provide exposure to the developed market companies while at the same time neutralizing exposure to fluctuations between the value of foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar.

The WisdomTree Japan Hedged Equity Index is designed to provide exposure to Japanese equity markets while at the same time neutralizing exposure to fluctuations of the Japanese Yen movements relative to the U.S. dollar.

The WisdomTree Japan Hedged SmallCap Equity Index is designed to provide exposure to the small-capitalization segment of the Japanese equity markets while at the same time neutralizing exposure to fluctuations of the Japanese Yen movements relative to the U.S. dollar.

^ 

The amount per share does not correspond with the amount reported within the Statements of Changes due to the timing of capital share transactions of Fund shares and fluctuating market values during the fiscal year.

 

1 

Based on average shares outstanding.

 

2 

Total return is calculated assuming an initial investment made at the net asset value at the beginning of the period, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions at net asset value during the period and redemption on the last day of the period.

 

3 

Included in the expense ratio are “Other fees” described in Note 6. Without these expenses, the expense ratio would have been 0.58%.

 

4 

Portfolio turnover rate excludes the value of the portfolio securities received or delivered as a result of in-kind creations or redemptions of the Fund’s capital shares. Short-term securities with maturities less than or equal to 365 days are excluded from the portfolio turnover calculation.

1. ORGANIZATION

WisdomTree Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was established as a Delaware statutory trust on December 15, 2005 and is authorized to have multiple series of portfolios (each a “Fund”, collectively, the “Funds”). These notes relate only to the Funds listed below. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services-Investment Companies, each Fund listed below qualifies as an investment company and is applying the accounting and reporting guidance for investment companies.

WisdomTree Europe Hedged Equity Fund (“Europe Hedged Equity Fund”)

     December 31, 2009  

WisdomTree Europe Hedged SmallCap Equity Fund (“Europe Hedged SmallCap Equity Fund”)

     March 4, 2015

     June 28, 2013  

Each Fund seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of a particular index (“Index”) developed by WisdomTree Investments, Inc. (“WisdomTree Investments”). WisdomTree Investments is the parent company of WisdomTree Asset Management, Inc. (“WTAM”), the investment adviser to each Fund and the Trust. “WisdomTree” is a registered trademark of WisdomTree Investments and has been licensed for use by the Trust. Each Fund described herein is considered to be non-diversified as defined under the 1940 Act.

In the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations or that provide indemnification for certain liabilities. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and believes such exposure to be remote.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) is the exclusive reference of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds:

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in the net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment Valuation — The net asset value (“NAV”) of each Fund’s shares is calculated each day a Fund is open for business as of the regularly scheduled close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time (the “NAV Calculation Time”). NAV per share is calculated by dividing a Fund’s net assets by the number of Fund shares outstanding. Each Fund issues and redeems shares at NAV only in large blocks of shares known as creation units, which only certain institutions (e.g., broker-dealers) may purchase or redeem. Shares of each Fund are listed on a national securities exchange and trade at market prices. Most investors will buy and sell shares in the secondary market through brokers. Because Fund shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV or less than NAV. In calculating each Fund’s NAV, investments are valued under policies approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board of Trustees”). Equity securities (including preferred stock) traded on any recognized U.S. or non-U.S. exchange are valued at the last sale price or official closing price on the exchange on which they are principally traded. Unlisted equity securities (including preferred stock) are valued at the last sale price or, if no sale price is available, at the mean between the highest bid and lowest ask price. Each Fund may invest in money market funds which are valued at their NAV per share and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs” or “ETF”) or exchange-traded notes (“ETNs” or “ETN”) which are valued at their last sale or official closing price on the exchange on which they are principally traded or at their NAV per share in instances where the ETF or ETN has not traded on its principal exchange. Foreign currency contracts that settle within two business days after the trade date (“Spot Contracts”) and foreign currency contracts having a settlement period greater than two business days after the trade date (“Forward Contracts”) are valued daily using WM/Reuters closing spot and forward rates, respectively, as of 4:00 p.m. London time.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

In certain instances, such as when reliable market valuations are not readily available, a Fund’s investments, which include derivatives, will be fair valued in accordance with the Fund’s pricing policy. The Board of Trustees has established a pricing committee (the “Pricing Committee”) which is comprised of senior representatives of WTAM and which reports to the Board of Trustees on a quarterly basis. In the event that a financial instrument cannot be valued based upon a price from the exchange or system on which it is principally traded, independent pricing service provider or broker-dealer quotation, or such prices are deemed to not reflect current market value, the Pricing Committee may value the financial instrument in good faith under the policies and procedures approved by the Board of Trustees based on current facts and circumstances. Securities that may be valued using “fair value” pricing may include, but are not limited to, securities for which there are no current market quotations, securities whose issuer is in default or bankruptcy, securities subject to corporate actions (such as mergers or reorganizations), securities subject to non-U.S. investment limits or currency controls, and securities affected by “significant events.” An example of a significant event is an event occurring after the close of the market in which a security trades but before a Fund’s next NAV Calculation Time that may materially affect the value of a Fund’s investment (e.g., government action, natural disaster, or significant market fluctuation). When fair value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

Fair Value Measurement — In accordance with Codification Topic 820 (“ASC 820”), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Pricing Committee will perform other procedures (consistent with GAAP) to value an investment when a market quote is not available. ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to be used when determining fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk — for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value (such as a pricing model) and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates,

prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including each Fund’s assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

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

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 (either due to events affecting the issuer of the security specifically or events affecting the primary trading exchange more broadly) 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 or market activity; (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 in which the security is traded but before the time as of which a Fund’s NAV is computed and that may materially affect the value of the Fund’s investments).

The valuation techniques and significant inputs used in determining the fair market value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions are as follows:

Financial instruments are generally valued by independent pricing service providers that use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models. Depending on the type of financial instrument, the independent pricing service providers’ internal pricing models may use inputs that are observable such as issuer details (e.g., credit rating, debt ranking, coupon date, maturity date, etc.), interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar assets. Financial instruments that use similar valuation techniques and observable inputs as described above and have an appropriate level of market activity are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise a Level 3 fair value classification is appropriate. Over-the-counter financial derivative instruments derive their value from underlying asset prices, indices, reference rates, and other inputs or a combination of these factors. These instruments are normally valued on the basis of broker-dealer quotations or prices obtained from independent pricing service providers. Depending on the product and the terms of the transaction, the value of the financial derivative instruments can be estimated by an independent pricing service provider using a series of techniques including simulation pricing models. The pricing models may use inputs that are observed from actively quoted markets such as issuer details, indices, credit risks/spreads, interest rates, yield curves, default and exchange rates. Derivative

contracts that use similar valuation techniques and observable inputs as described above and have an appropriate level of market activity are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise a Level 3 fair value classification is appropriate.

Determination of a fair value by the Pricing Committee may include significant unobservable inputs and therefore such financial instruments would be reflected as a Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Pricing Committee may employ a market-based valuation approach which may use, among other potential considerations, related or comparable securities, recent transactions, market multiples, and other relevant information to determine fair value. The Pricing Committee may also use an income-based valuation approach in which anticipated future cash flows of the financial instrument are discounted to calculate fair value.

The summary of fair valuations according to the inputs used in valuing each Fund’s assets as of the measurement date is included in a “Fair Valuation Summary” supplementary table in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, there were no significant transfers into or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivatives and Hedging Disclosure — Codification Topic 815 (“ASC 815”), Derivatives and Hedging, requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts as well as gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. The Funds have invested in derivatives, specifically foreign currency contracts during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 and open positions in such derivatives as of March 31, 2022 are detailed in each Fund’s Schedule of Investments. All of the derivative instruments disclosed and described herein are subject to risk. Risks may arise upon entering into foreign currency contracts from potential inability of a counterparty to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar or each other. The Funds’ derivative agreements may also contain credit-risk related contingent features which include, but are not limited to, a percentage decline in the Funds’ NAV over a specified time period. If an event occurred at March 31, 2022 that triggered a contingent feature, the counterparty to the agreement may require the Funds to post additional collateral or terminate the derivative positions and demand payment. Any collateral posted with respect to the derivative positions would be used to offset or reduce the payment. The maximum exposure to derivatives agreements with credit-risk related contingent features would be the total value of derivatives in net liability positions for each Fund, as disclosed in the table included in Note 2 — Master Netting Arrangements. Information with respect to the amounts and types of collateral received and/or posted for derivative instruments as of March 31, 2022, if any, is reflected as a footnote within each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

As of March 31, 2022, the effects of such derivative instruments on each Fund’s financial position as reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities are presented in the summary below:

Investment Transactions and Investment Income — Investment transactions are recorded as of the date that the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses on sales of portfolio securities are calculated using the identified-cost method. Dividend income (less foreign taxes withheld, if any) is recognized on the ex-dividend date or as soon as practicable (with respect to foreign dividends) after the existence of a dividend declaration has been determined. Non-cash dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, or as soon as practicable (with respect to foreign dividends) after the existence of a dividend declaration has been determined, at the fair value of securities to be received. On each measurement date, the Funds evaluate the collectability of receivable balances. Generally, the Funds will write-off dividend receivable balances that are canceled by the issuer as of date that the dividend receivable cancellation notification was publicly made available or when it becomes probable that dividends will not be collected and the amount of uncollectable dividends can be reasonably estimated. Income earned from securities lending activities (i.e., securities lending income), net of fees payable to the securities borrower and/or securities lending agent, is accrued daily.

Foreign Currency Translation — The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, as well as investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions that are deemed appropriate by WTAM. Realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses on investments are included as a component of “net realized gain (loss) from investment

Realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arising from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses recognized between the trade and settlement dates on investment transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid are included in “net realized gain (loss) from foreign currency related transactions” and/or “net increase (decrease) in unrealized appreciation/depreciation from translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies” in the Statements of Operations. Certain foreign exchange gains and losses included in realized and unrealized gains or losses are included in, or are a reduction of, ordinary income in accordance with U.S. Federal income tax regulations.

Acquired fund fees and expenses (“AFFEs”) (which are fees and expenses incurred indirectly by a Fund through its investments in certain underlying investment companies) are not operating expenses of the Funds and are not paid by WTAM.

Pursuant to a separate contractual arrangement, WTAM arranges for the provision of CCO services with respect to each Fund, and is liable and responsible for, and administers, payments to the CCO, the Independent Trustees and counsel to the Independent Trustees. WTAM receives a fee, as shown on the Statements of Operations under “Service fees”, of up to 0.0044% per annum of each Fund’s average daily net assets for providing such services and paying such expenses. WTAM provides CCO services to the Trust.

Foreign Currency Contracts — The Funds may enter into foreign currency contracts to facilitate local securities settlements or to protect against currency exposure. The Funds may not enter into such contracts for speculative purposes. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, the Funds utilized foreign currency contracts primarily to offset exposure to foreign currencies consistent with each Fund’s investment objective. A foreign currency contract involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date, which may be any fixed number of days from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. These contracts are principally traded in the inter-bank market conducted directly between currency traders (usually large, commercial banks) and their customers. A foreign currency contract generally does not require an initial margin deposit and no commissions are charged at any stage for trades. However, if a Fund is in an unrealized loss position on a foreign currency contract, it may be required to pledge collateral (or additional collateral) to the counterparty. If a Fund is in an unrealized gain position on a foreign currency contract, it may receive collateral from the counterparty. In the event of a default or inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts, the non-defaulting party generally has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the contract terms.

Risks may arise upon entering into foreign currency contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar or each other.

Fluctuations in the value of open foreign currency contracts are recorded for book purposes as unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency contracts by the Funds and are included in “net increase (decrease) in unrealized appreciation/depreciation from foreign currency contracts” on the Statements of Operations. Realized gains and losses on foreign currency contracts include net gains or losses

recognized by the Funds on contracts which have settled are included in “net realized gain (loss) from foreign currency contracts on the Statements of Operations.

Securities Lending — Each Fund may lend portfolio securities to certain creditworthy borrowers, including the Funds’ securities lending agent. It is the Funds’ policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral in the form of cash and/or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies, equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities, is maintained at all times. The cash collateral can be invested in certain money market mutual funds which also have exposure to the fluctuations of the market. The values of the investments of cash collateral for securities on loan along with the obligations to return such collateral are included on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The total value of securities received as collateral for securities on loan is included in a footnote following each Schedule of Investments, but is not included within the Statements of Assets and Liabilities because the receiving Fund does not have the right to sell or repledge the securities received as collateral. As compensation for lending its securities, each Fund retains all or a portion of the interest received on investment of cash collateral or receives a fee from the borrower (net of any fee rebates paid to the borrower). The lending agent receives a portion of the income earned by the Funds in connection with the lending program. The net securities lending income earned by the Funds is disclosed on the Statements of Operations. The dividend income earned on the securities loaned is accounted for in the same manner as other dividend income. The borrower pays to the Funds an amount equal to any dividends or interest received on loaned securities. Dividends received while a security is out on loan are not considered Qualified Dividend Income (“QDI”) under the specific criteria issued by the Internal Revenue Service and are subject to taxation at the shareholder’s ordinary income tax rate instead of the lower long-term capital gains tax rate. Lending portfolio securities could result in a loss or delay in recovering each Fund’s securities if the borrower defaults. In the event of a borrower default with respect to the failure to return to each Fund some or all of the securities loaned, the securities lending agent shall indemnify each Fund against the failure of the borrower if the value of the collateral received is insufficient to cover the market value of the securities loaned.

Master Netting Arrangements — Codification Topic 210 (“ASC 210”), Balance Sheet, requires disclosures generally intended to (i) help investors and other financial statement users to better assess the effect or potential effect of offsetting arrangements on a company’s financial position, (ii) improve transparency in the reporting of how companies mitigate credit risk, and (iii) facilitate comparisons between those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of GAAP and those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of international financial reporting standards. ASC 210 requires entities to disclose (i) gross and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the financial statements, and (ii) instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement. ASC 210 is limited in scope to the following financial instruments, to the extent they are offset in the financial statements or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement: (i) recognized derivative instruments accounted for under ASC 815 (Derivatives and Hedging); (ii) repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements; and (iii) securities borrowing and securities lending transactions.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help a Fund mitigate its counterparty risk, a Fund enters into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) with its counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs over-the-counter derivatives (“OTC”), such as foreign currency contracts, and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms, netting and rights of set-off provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, a Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and receivables to create a single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

Collateral requirements generally differ by type of derivative. Collateral terms are contract-specific for OTC derivatives (e.g., foreign currency contracts, options and certain swaps). Generally, for transactions traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are calculated by netting the marked to market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by a Fund and the counterparty. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a counterparty must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer is required to be made. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its derivatives counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from a counterparty’s non-performance.

The Funds’ securities lending activities are governed by a Securities Lending Authorization Agreement (“Lending Agreement”) between the Funds and the lending agent. The Lending Agreement authorizes the lending agent to lend qualifying U.S. and foreign securities held by a Fund to approved borrowers (each a “Borrower”). To mitigate borrower risk, a Fund typically receives from a Borrower collateral in the form of U.S. dollar cash and/or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies in excess of the market value of the securities loaned. Under the provisions of the Lending Agreement, a Fund shall have, as to the collateral, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under applicable law. A Fund is exposed to risk of loss if a Borrower defaults on its obligation to return borrowed securities and the value of the collateral a Fund received is insufficient to cover the

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

market value of the securities loaned. Also, the lending agent is permitted to invest the cash collateral it receives from a Borrower into a money market fund which is subject to market fluctuation. Therefore, a Fund is exposed to risk of loss if the value of invested cash collateral is insufficient to satisfy the Fund’s obligation to return the full amount owed to such Borrower.

For financial reporting purposes, the Funds elect to not offset assets and liabilities subject to an ISDA Master Agreement or Lending Agreement, if any, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Therefore, all qualifying transactions are presented on a gross basis in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of March 31, 2022, the impact of netting of assets and liabilities and the offsetting of collateral pledged or received based on contractual netting/set-off provisions in the ISDA Master Agreement and the Lending Agreement are detailed in the following table:

The amount of collateral presented has been limited such that the net amount by counterparty cannot be less than zero.

Short-Term Investments — Each Fund may invest a portion of its assets in high-quality money market instruments on an ongoing basis to provide liquidity or for other reasons. The instruments include short-term obligations issued by the U.S. government, its agencies, non-U.S. government agencies, negotiable certificates of deposit (“CDs”), fixed time deposits and bankers’ acceptances of U.S. and foreign banks and similar institutions, commercial papers, repurchase agreements and money market funds. CDs are short-term negotiable obligations of commercial banks. Time deposits are non-negotiable deposits maintained in banking institutions for specified periods of time at stated interest rates. Banker’s acceptances are time drafts drawn on commercial banks by borrowers, usually in connection with international transactions.

Tax Information and Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). A portion of the Code, known as subchapter M (“Subchapter M”), addresses the ways by which investment companies and investment trusts may pass income through to shareholders in order to avoid double taxation. Each Fund intends to qualify for and to elect treatment as a separate Regulated Investment Company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Code so that it will not be subject to federal income tax on income and gains that are timely distributed to Fund shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal income taxes is required. In order to qualify for the special tax treatment accorded to RICs and their shareholders, each Fund must, among other things, distribute with respect to each taxable year an amount equal to or greater than the sum of 90% of its investment company taxable income and 90% of its net tax-exempt interest income. There can be no guarantee that a Fund will pay dividends. Taxable net realized gains from investment transactions, reduced by capital loss carryforwards, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. The capital loss carryforward

amount, if any, is available to offset future net capital gains. The Funds may occasionally be required to make supplemental distributions at some other time during the year. The Trust reserves the right to declare special distributions if, in its reasonable discretion, such action is necessary or advisable to preserve the status of each Fund as a RIC or to avoid imposition of income or excise taxes on undistributed income. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with the requirements of the Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations. These book/tax differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets based on their Federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions that exceed earnings and profit for tax purposes are reported for tax purposes as a return of capital.

3. ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

WTAM has overall responsibility for the general management and administration of the Trust. WTAM provides an investment program for each Fund. WTAM has arranged for Mellon Investments Corporation (“Mellon”) to provide sub-advisory services to the Funds. Mellon is compensated by WTAM at no additional cost to the Funds. WTAM also arranges for transfer agency, custody, fund accounting, fund administration, securities lending and all other non-distribution related services necessary for the Funds to operate, which are generally under separate agreements entered into between the Trust on behalf of the Funds and the applicable service provider. Under the investment advisory agreement for each Fund, WTAM agrees to pay all expenses of the Funds, except for certain expenses described in Note 2.

Pursuant to a separate contractual arrangement, as also described in Note 2, WTAM arranges for the provision of CCO services with respect to each Fund, and is liable and responsible for, and administers, payments to the CCO, the Independent Trustees and counsel to the Independent Trustees in exchange for a fee, accrued daily and paid monthly in arrears, of up to 0.0044% per annum of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

WTAM expects to receive annual advisory fees from each Fund, based on a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets, as shown in the following table:

 

   
Fund    Advisory
Fee Rate
 

Europe Hedged Equity Fund

     0.58

During the year ended March 31, 2022, the International Hedged Quality Dividend Growth Fund received a voluntary reimbursement of $13,616 from Mellon for investment losses on certain equity transactions. The dollar amount of the reimbursement is shown in the Statements of Operations in “Net increase from payment by affiliate”.

Affiliated holdings are investments in entities in which the Fund owns 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities or are investments in entities which are under common ownership or control. Transactions in shares of affiliated ETFs for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, as applicable, are included in an “Investment in Affiliates” supplementary table in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments. For these transactions, WTAM voluntarily waives a portion of the advisory fees, that it would otherwise charge, in an amount equal to the indirect AFFE (which are fees and expenses incurred indirectly by a Fund through its investments in certain underlying investment companies) attributable to each Fund’s investment in affiliated ETFs. The dollar amount of advisory fees waived during the period for the Funds, if any, are included in the Statement of Operations in “Expense waivers”.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, certain Funds engaged in purchase and sale transactions with funds that have a common investment adviser, WTAM. These interfund purchase and sale transactions were effected in accordance with Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, the cost of purchases, proceeds from sales and the net realized gain or loss recognized upon the disposal of securities resulting from interfund transactions are shown in the following table:

4. CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

As of March 31, 2022, there were an unlimited number of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest authorized by the Trust. Shares are issued and redeemed by each Fund only in creation units or multiples thereof. Except when aggregated in creation units, shares of each Fund are not redeemable. Transactions in shares for each Fund are disclosed in detail in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The consideration for the purchase of creation units of a Fund generally consists of the in-kind contribution of a basket of securities and/or an amount of cash. Investors purchasing and redeeming creation units may be charged a purchase transaction fee and a redemption transaction fee to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of creation units.

5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments (excluding purchases and sales resulting from in-kind capital share transactions and short-term investments) and the cost of purchases and the proceeds from sales resulting from in-kind capital share transactions (excluding short-term investments) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 are shown in the following table. Realized gains and losses on sales resulting from in-kind capital share redemptions, as shown on the Statements of Operations, are not recognized by the Funds for tax purposes.

Certain financial derivatives may be considered section 1256 contracts under the Code. Each section 1256 contract held at the close of a taxable year shall be treated as sold for its fair market value on the last business day of such taxable year (and any realized gain and loss shall be taken into account for the taxable year). As such, the unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) for financial derivatives on a tax basis may not correspond to the unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on a GAAP basis. The unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) for financial derivatives on a GAAP basis is located in the respective financial derivatives tables in each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

GAAP provides guidance on tax provisions that prescribe a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Foreign withholding taxes, as applicable, are accrued based on each Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. Foreign withholding taxes are accrued and applied to foreign income, net realized capital gains and net unrealized appreciation, as applicable, as the foreign income is earned or capital gains and unrealized appreciation are recorded. The dollar amount of applicable foreign withholding taxes on foreign income is included net in the Statements of Operations in “Less: Foreign withholding taxes,” the foreign capital gains tax applicable on the disposal of securities is included in the Statements of Operations in “Net realized gain (loss) from investment transactions” and the dollar amount of deferred foreign capital gains tax applicable on the unrealized appreciation on securities held is included in the Statements of Operations in “Net increase (decrease) in unrealized appreciation/depreciation from investment transactions”. The Funds record a foreign tax reclaim receivable on the ex-dividend date if the tax reclaim is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. This determination is based on, among other things, a jurisdiction’s legal obligation to pay reclaims as well as payment history and market convention. Foreign tax reclaims that have been recorded but not yet received are shown on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities in “Receivables: Foreign tax reclaims”.

As of and during the fiscal year or period ended March 31, 2022, the Funds did not have any liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions they have taken or expect to take in the future. If applicable, the Funds will recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in “Other” expenses on the Statements of Operations. The Funds file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service, the State of New York, and various other states. Specific to U.S. federal and state taxes, generally, each of the tax years in the four-year period ended March 31, 2022, remains subject to examination by taxing authorities. Specific to foreign countries in which the Funds invest, all open tax years remain subject to examination by taxing authorities in the respective jurisdictions.

As a result of several European Court of Justice (“ECJ”) court cases in certain countries across the European Union (“EU”), certain Funds have filed additional tax reclaims for previously withheld taxes on dividends earned in those countries (“ECJ tax reclaims”). These additional filings are subject to various administrative proceedings by the local jurisdictions’ tax authorities within the EU, as well as a number of related judicial proceedings. Income recognized, if any, for ECJ tax reclaims is reflected as “Other income” in the Statements of Operations and the cost to file these additional ECJ tax reclaims is reflected as “Other fees” in the Statements of Operations. When the ECJ tax reclaim is not “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities due to the uncertainty that exists as to the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these ECJ tax reclaims, and the potential timing of payment, no amounts are reflected in the financial statements. At March 31, 2022, the Europe Hedged SmallCap Equity Fund recognized ECJ tax reclaim receivables of $20,812 in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities in “Other receivables” that were “more likely than not” to be sustained by tax authorities and the estimated cost of $6,244 to file for these reclaims is reflected in “Other liabilities” on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For U.S. income tax purposes, ECJ tax reclaims received by the Funds, if any, reduce the amounts of foreign taxes Fund shareholders can use as tax credits in their individual income tax returns. In the event that ECJ tax reclaims received by a Fund during the fiscal year exceed foreign withholding taxes paid, and a Fund previously passed foreign tax credits on to its shareholders, a Fund must either amend historic tax reporting to shareholders or enter into a closing agreement with the Internal Revenue Service in order to pay the associated tax liability on behalf of the respective Fund’s shareholders. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, the ECJ tax reclaims received by the Funds did not exceed the foreign withholding taxes of the respective Funds.

7. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has spread globally since 2019, resulting in a global pandemic and major disruption to global markets and economies. In an organized attempt to contain and mitigate the effects of COVID-19, governments and businesses world-wide took aggressive measures, including businesses canceling dividends to preserve cash, governments closing borders, restricting international and domestic travel, and the imposition of prolonged quarantines of large populations. COVID-19 has resulted in the disruption of and delays in the delivery of healthcare services and processes, the

cancellation of organized events and educational institutions, the disruption of production and supply chains, a decline in consumer demand for certain goods and services, and general concern and uncertainty, all of which have contributed to increased volatility in global markets. In recent months, however, the rapid COVID-19 vaccination rollout in the United States and certain other developed countries, coupled with the passage of stimulus programs in the U.S. and abroad, have resulted in a reversal of many of these trends including the re-opening of businesses, a reduction in quarantine requirements, increased consumer demand, and the resumption of certain in-person schooling, travel and events. Despite these positive trends, the prevalence of new COVID-19 variants, a failure to achieve herd immunity, or other unforeseen circumstances may result in the continued spread of the virus throughout unvaccinated populations or a resurgence in infections among vaccinated populations. As a result, it remains unclear if recent positive trends will continue in developed markets and whether such trends will spread world-wide to countries with limited access to vaccines that are still experiencing rising COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths.

The effects of COVID-19 have affected and are likely to continue to affect certain sectors and industries more dramatically than others, and the effects borne by some will negatively affect the value of the issuers in those sectors and industries, which may adversely affect the value of a Fund’s investments in those sectors or industries. It is also true that the speed at which global economies recover, or fail to recover, from the COVID-19 pandemic will affect certain sectors, industries, and issuers more dramatically than others, which in turn may adversely affect certain Fund investments.

COVID-19, and other epidemics and pandemics that may arise in the future, could adversely affect the economies of many nations, the global economy, individual companies and capital markets in ways that cannot be foreseen at the present time. In addition, the impact of infectious diseases in developing or emerging market countries may be greater due to limited health care resources, including access to COVID-19 vaccinations and treatments. Political, economic and social stresses caused by COVID-19 also may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries. The duration of COVID-19 and its effects cannot be determined fully at this time, but the effects could be present for an extended period of time. It is impossible to predict the effects on the Funds of these or similar events and market conditions in the future. However, it is possible that these or similar events and market conditions could have a significant and adverse effect on the NAV and/or risk profile of a Fund.

*    *    *    *    *

Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine initiated in February 2022 and the economic and diplomatic responses by the United States and other countries have led to increased volatility and uncertainty in the financial markets and could continue to adversely affect regional and global economies for the foreseeable future. In response to Russia’s actions, the governments of the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and many other countries collectively imposed heavy and broad-ranging economic sanctions on certain Russian individuals, corporate and banking entities, and other industries and businesses. The sanctions restrict companies from doing business with Russia and Russian companies, prohibit transactions with the Russian central bank and other key Russian financial institutions and entities, ban Russian airlines and ships from using many other countries’ airspace and ports, respectively, and place a freeze on certain Russian assets. The sanctions also removed some Russian banks from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT), the electronic network that connects banks globally to facilitate cross-border payments. In addition, the United States has banned oil and other energy imports from Russia, and the United Kingdom made a commitment to phase out oil import from Russia by the end of 2022.

These sanctions, as well as other economic consequences related to the invasion, such as additional sanctions, boycotts or changes in consumer or purchaser preferences or cyberattacks on governments, companies or individuals, may further decrease the value and liquidity of certain Russian securities and securities of issuers in other countries that are subject to economic sanctions related to the invasion or otherwise adversely affected by the sanctions. To the extent a Fund has exposure to Russian investments or investments in countries affected by the invasion or the sanctions, the Fund’s ability to price, buy, sell, receive or deliver such investments may be impaired. In certain circumstances, such as when there is no market for a security or other means of valuing or disposing of a security, a Fund may determine to value the affected security at zero. In addition, any exposure a Fund may have to counterparties in Russia or in countries affected by the invasion could negatively affect the Fund’s portfolio. The extent and duration of Russia’s military actions and the repercussions of such actions are impossible to predict, but could result in continued significant market disruptions, including in the oil and natural gas markets, and may negatively affect global supply chains, inflation and global growth. Further, an escalation of the military conflict beyond Ukraine’s borders could result in significant, long-lasting damage to the economies of Eastern and Western Europe as well as the global economy. These and any related events could significantly and adversely affect a Fund’s performance and the value of an investment in the Fund, even in the absence of direct exposure to Russian issuers or issuers in other countries affected by the invasion.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Shareholders of WisdomTree Europe Hedged Equity Fund, WisdomTree Europe Hedged SmallCap Equity Fund, WisdomTree Germany Hedged Equity Fund, WisdomTree International Hedged Quality Dividend Growth Fund, WisdomTree Japan Hedged Equity Fund and WisdomTree Japan Hedged SmallCap Equity Fund, and the Board of Trustees of WisdomTree Trust

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of WisdomTree Europe Hedged Equity Fund, WisdomTree Europe Hedged SmallCap Equity Fund, WisdomTree Germany Hedged Equity Fund, WisdomTree International Hedged Quality Dividend Growth Fund, WisdomTree Japan Hedged Equity Fund and WisdomTree Japan Hedged SmallCap Equity Fund (collectively referred to as the “Funds”), (six of the funds constituting WisdomTree Trust (the “Trust”)), including the schedules of investments, as of March 31, 2022, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds (six of the funds constituting WisdomTree Trust) at March 31, 2022, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and their financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on each of the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. 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 Trust 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 audits 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. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits 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 March 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. Our audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Liquidity Risk Management Program (unaudited)

 

The Funds adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “Program”) pursuant to the requirements of Rule 22e-4 (the “Rule”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Rule requires registered open-end funds, including exchange-traded funds such as the Funds, to establish liquidity risk management programs in order to effectively manage fund liquidity and shareholder redemptions. The Rule is designed to mitigate the risk that a Fund could not meet redemption requests without significantly diluting the interest of remaining investors. The Board has appointed WisdomTree Asset Management, Inc., the investment advisor to the Funds, as the Program Administrator for each Fund’s Program.

The Rule requires the Funds to assess, manage and review their liquidity risk at least annually considering applicable factors such as investment strategy and liquidity during normal and foreseeable stressed conditions, including whether the strategy is appropriate for an open-ended fund and whether the Fund has a relatively concentrated portfolio or large positions in particular issuers. The Funds must also assess their use of borrowings and derivatives, short-term and long-term cash flow projections in normal and stressed conditions, holdings of cash and cash equivalents, and borrowing arrangements and other funding sources.

The Rule also requires the Funds to classify their investments into one of four liquidity categories: highly liquid, moderately liquid, less liquid or illiquid based on the number of days a Fund expects it would take to liquidate the investment, and to review these classifications at least monthly or more often under certain conditions. The periods range from three or fewer business days for a highly liquid investment to greater than seven calendar days for settlement of a less liquid investment. Illiquid investments are those a Fund does not expect to be able to sell or dispose of within seven calendar days without significantly changing the market value of the investment. A Fund is prohibited from acquiring an investment if, after the acquisition, its holdings of illiquid assets will exceed 15% of its net assets. In addition, if a Fund permits redemptions in-kind, the Rule requires the Fund to establish redemption in-kind policies and procedures governing how and when it will engage in such redemptions.

Pursuant to the Rule’s requirements, the Program has been reviewed and approved by the Fund’s Board. Furthermore, the Board has received a written report prepared by the Program Administrator that addresses the operation of the Program, assesses its adequacy and effectiveness and describes any material changes made to the Program. The Program Administrator has monitored the Fund’s liquidity risk and the liquidity classifications of the securities held by the Fund and has determined that the Program is operating effectively.

During the period from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021, there were no material changes to the Program and no material liquidity events that impacted the Funds. During the period, the Funds held sufficient highly liquid assets to meet fund redemptions.

Under normal expected foreseeable Fund redemption forecasts and foreseeable stressed Fund redemption forecasts, the Program Administrator believes that the Funds maintain sufficient highly liquid assets to meet Fund redemptions.

There are risks associated with investing including possible loss of principal. Foreign investing involves special risks, such as risk of loss from currency fluctuation or political or economic uncertainty. Investments in real estate involve additional special risks, such as credit risk, interest rate fluctuations and the effect of varied economic conditions. Funds that focus their investments in one country or region may be significantly impacted by events and developments associated with the region which can adversely affect performance. Funds focusing on a single sector and/or smaller companies generally experience greater price volatility. Investments in emerging, offshore or frontier markets are generally less liquid and less efficient than investments in developed markets and are subject to additional risks, such as risks of adverse governmental regulation and intervention or political developments. Investments in currency involve additional special risks, such as credit risk and interest rate fluctuations. Derivative investments can be volatile and these investments may be less liquid than other securities, and more sensitive to the effect of varied economic conditions. As these Funds can have a high concentration in some issuers the Funds can be adversely impacted by changes affecting such issuers. Due to the investment strategy of certain Funds they may make higher capital gain distributions than other ETFs. Please read the Fund’s prospectus for specific details regarding the Fund’s risk profile.

Indexes are unmanaged and you cannot invest directly in an index.

Transactions in Fund shares will result in brokerage commissions and will generate tax consequences. Shares may be sold through brokerage accounts, but may be redeemed from the Funds only by Authorized Participants in large creation unit sizes of shares.
