The Company receives a unitary management fee of 0.60 percent of average net assets of the ETFs and has agreed to bear all expenses of the U.S.-based ETFs, except the U.S. Global Sea to Sky Cargo ETF ("SEA"). The Company has agreed to contractually limit the expenses of SEA through April 2026. The aggregate fees waived, and expenses borne by the Company for SEA were $143,000 and $147,000 for the years ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. The Company also serves as investment advisor to one European-based ETF, The Travel UCITS ETF (ticker TRIP). The U.S. Global Jets UCITS ETF merged into The Travel UCITS ETF in April 2024. The Company receives a unitary management fee of 0.69 percent of average net assets and has agreed to bear all expenses of the ETF. The Company serves as investment adviser to USGIF and receives advisory fees, which as of June 30, 2025, consist of a base management fee. The base management fee is based on a specified percentage of net assets under management. During fiscal years 2025 and 2024, the Company also received performance fees, which were fulcrum fees consisting of a 0.25 percent upwards or downwards adjustment of the base management fee when there was a 5 percent or more performance difference between a fund’s performance and that of its designated benchmark index over the prior rolling 12 months. This performance adjustment began to be phased out during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 and ceased during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. During the phase-out period, the adjustment for the performance fee could only be adjusted downward. The Company has agreed to contractually limit the expenses of the Funds except for the U.S. Government Securities Ultra Short Bond Fund through April 2026. The Company has voluntarily waived or reduced its fees and/or agreed to pay expenses on the U.S. Government Securities Ultra Short Bond Fund. This cap will continue on a voluntary basis at the Company’s discretion. The aggregate fees waived, and expenses borne by the Company for USGIF were $973,000 and $840,000 for the years ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. USGIF revenue included on the Consolidated Statements of Operations is net of fee waivers. Management cannot predict the impact of future waivers due to the number of variables and the range of potential outcomes. The Company receives administrative service fees from USGIF based on an annual rate of 0.05 percent of average daily net assets of each fund. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $683,000 in receivables from fund clients, of which $494,000 was from the ETFs and $189,000 was from USGIF, and as of June 30, 2024, the Company had $772,000 in receivables from fund clients, of which $647,000 was from the ETFs and $125,000 was from USGIF.
