managment’s discussion of fund performance

The recent market environment was defined by geopolitical uncertainty, higher energy prices, shifting expectations for monetary policy, and continued strength in companies tied to the AI infrastructure build-out. The conflict with Iran drove oil prices higher in the first half of 2026 and refocused investor attention on the Strait of Hormuz as a source of global supply disruption. Oil prices remain an important swing factor for both inflation and consumer spending, particularly if elevated gasoline prices persist long enough to pressure household budgets. Recent inflation data reflected some pass-through from higher energy prices as headline CPI accelerated in the first half of 2026. As investors reassessed inflation expectations, bond yields moved higher, with the 30-year Treasury yield reaching over 5.2% in late July, its highest level in 19 years. The increase in long-term rates bears watching, as higher yields can raise the cost of capital and pressure valuation multiples for longer-duration assets. To date, however, equity returns have shrugged off the headwind from higher rates, suggesting investors remain focused on earnings visibility, nominal growth, and the durability of secular investment cycles.

For the fiscal year the Fund returned 5.01% compared with the Russell 2000 Growth index return of 28.42%. Underperformance was due to unprecedented leadership by low-quality companies in the index. For example, non-earning biotech and pharma stocks in the benchmark returned over 102% for the twelve months ended July 31, and non-earning companies across all sectors in the benchmark returned 39%. Most stocks in these categories don’t meet our quality investment criteria, and their performance was a meaningful headwind this fiscal year. On a sector basis, the healthcare and technology sectors were the weakest contributors to performance, while energy was strongest.

The path of monetary policy is now less straightforward than it appeared a year ago. The Fed is balancing renewed inflation risks against signs of more moderate growth, while the bond market is demanding greater compensation for inflation and fiscal uncertainty. Credit spreads remain tight, suggesting the move in yields has been driven more by inflation and policy concerns than by deteriorating public-company credit conditions. For quality growth companies with strong balance sheets, durable margins, and self-funded growth, the environment should continue to reward discipline.

We continue to see meaningful opportunity in the AI infrastructure build-out, but we are looking more deliberately at companies beyond the most obvious hardware beneficiaries. The first phase of the trade rewarded semiconductors, memory, and other direct beneficiaries. As the build-out becomes larger and more complex, we believe investors will increasingly focus on the physical and operational constraints around data center development. These opportunities include critical infrastructure and services required to support the expansion of data center capacity.

Spend Life Wisely Funds Investment Trust

Notes to Financial Statements

July 31, 2026

Note 1. Organization

Spend Life Wisely Funds Investment Trust (the “Trust”), is an open-end investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The affairs of the Trust are managed by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”). The Trust was organized on June 21, 2011, as a Delaware Statutory Trust. The Trust currently offers shares of beneficial interest (“shares”) of four series. These financial statements include the following series: Ranger Small Cap Fund and Ranger Micro Cap Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”). Ranger Small Cap Fund (“Small Cap Fund”) is a diversified portfolio with an investment objective to seek long-term capital appreciation. Ranger Micro Cap Fund (“Micro Cap Fund”) is a diversified portfolio with an investment objective to seek long-term capital appreciation. Each Fund has Institutional Class Shares and Investor Class Shares; however, the Funds do not currently offer their Investor Class shares for sale.

Ranger Investment Management, L.P. (“Ranger Investment” or the “Adviser”) serves as investment adviser to the Small Cap and Micro Cap Funds.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies.”

During the year ended July 31, 2026 the Funds adopted FASB Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU2023- 09”).The amendments enhanced income tax disclosures by requiring greater disaggregation in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid by jurisdiction, while removing certain disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-09 had no material impact to the Funds’ financial statements during the period.

Trust expenses for the Funds are allocated based on their relative net assets within the Trust or allocated based on the number of Funds within the Trust.

Security Valuations: All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in Note 4.

Federal Income Taxes: The Funds make no provision for federal income or excise tax. The Funds intend to qualify each year as “regulated investment companies” (“RICs”) under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, by complying with the requirements applicable to RICs and by distributing substantially all of their taxable income. The Funds also intend to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that they will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains. If the required amount of net investment income or gains is not distributed, the Funds could incur a tax expense. Therefore, no federal income tax or excise provision is required.

The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years (2023-2025) or expected to be taken in the Funds’ 2026 tax returns. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal, however the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next 12 months.

The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year ended July 31, 2026, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. For financial reporting purposes the treatment of distributions made to shareholders during the year from net investment income, net realized capital, or return of capital gains may differ from their ultimate treatment for federal income tax purposes. These differences are caused primarily by differences in the timing of the recognition of certain components of income, expense or realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. Where such differences are permanent in nature, they are reclassified in the components of the net assets based on their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations or net asset value per share of the Funds.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make 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 net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment transactions and related investment income: The Funds record security transactions on the trade date. The specific identification method is used for determining gains or losses for financial statement and income tax purposes. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. Distributions received from certain investments held by the Funds may be comprised of dividends, realized gains and returns of capital. The amounts may subsequently be reclassified upon receipt of information from the issuer.

Share Valuation: The net asset value per share of each class of shares for the Funds are calculated daily by dividing the total value of each Fund’s assets attributable to that class, less liabilities attributable to that class, by the number of shares of that class outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share of each class of the Funds is equal to the net asset value per share.

Share Class Accounting: Investment income, common expenses and realized/unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated to each respective share class of the respective Fund on the basis of the daily net assets of each class. Fees relating to a specific class are charged directly to that share class.

Each class of shares has proportionate rights as to assets of the respective Funds, and the classes are identical except for ongoing distribution fees. Investor Class shares are subject to distribution fees, whereas Institutional Class shares are not. All classes have equal voting privileges, except where otherwise required by law or when the Trustees determine that the matter to be voted on affects only the interests of the shareholders of a particular class.

Guarantees and Indemnifications: In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown and would involve future claims against the Funds that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, the Funds would expect the risk of loss to be remote.

Note 3. Risks

An investment in the Funds is subject to a variety of risk, including the possible loss of investment capital. Additional risks associated with the Funds include, but are not limited to:

Micro and Small Capitalization Risk: Micro or small capitalization companies may be more at risk than large capitalization companies because, among other things, they may have limited product lines, operating history, market or financial resources, or because they may depend on a limited management group. The prices of securities of micro and small capitalization companies generally are more volatile than those of large capitalization companies and are more likely to be adversely affected by changes in earnings results and investor expectations or poor economic or market conditions than large capitalization companies. Securities of small capitalization companies may underperform large capitalization companies, may be harder to sell at times and at prices the portfolio managers believe appropriate, and may offer greater potential for losses.

Equity Market Risk: Equity markets can be volatile and the prices of common stocks can fluctuate significantly. In addition, the Small Cap Fund portfolio and Micro Cap Fund portfolio invests in small capitalization companies and micro capitalization companies, respectively, which may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than those of larger, more established companies.

Liquidity Risk: Some small cap and micro cap securities may have few market-makers and low trading volume, which can increase transaction costs and may make it difficult or impossible for the Funds to dispose of a security position at all or at a price which represents current or fair market value.

A number of other risks are associated with an investment in the Funds, including: issuer specific risks, liquidity risks, and risks associated with the Adviser’s judgment. Greater detail on each of the above stated risks may be found in the Funds’ prospectuses.

Note 4. Security Valuations

In computing net asset value, portfolio securities of the Funds are generally valued at their current market values determined on the basis of readily available market quotations, when available. If market quotations are not readily available, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Adviser, in its capacity as the Board’s valuation designee, pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. As a general matter, fair value represents the amount that a Fund could reasonably expect to receive if such Fund’s investment in the security were sold at the time of valuation. The Adviser may utilize third parties to assist the Adviser in its capacity as valuation designee available at the time the valuation is made and that the Adviser believes to be reliable. The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument in an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Fair Value Measurements: A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows.

Equity securities (common stock including ADRs) - Equity securities are valued by using market quotations furnished by a pricing service when the valuation designee believes such prices accurately reflect the fair value of such securities. Securities that are traded on any stock exchange are valued by the pricing service at the last quoted sale price. Securities traded in the NASDAQ over-the-counter market are valued by the pricing service at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Generally, if the security is traded in an active market and is valued at the last sale price, the security is categorized as a Level 1 security. When the security position is not considered to be part of an active market or when the security is valued at the bid price, the position is generally categorized as a Level 2 security. When market quotations are not readily available, when the valuation designee determines that the market quotation or the price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the current market value or when illiquid securities are being valued, such securities are valued at fair value as determined by the valuation designee in good faith, in accordance with guidelines adopted by and subject to review of the Board and are categorized as Level 3.

Money market funds are generally priced at the ending net asset value (“NAV”) provided by the service agent of the Funds. These securities will be classified as Level 1 of the value hierarchy.

The following table presents information about the Small Cap Fund’s investments measured at fair value as of July 31, 2026:

Assets Level 1 Total
Common Stocks $ 12,115,295 $ 12,115,295
Short-Term Investment       313,917       313,917
    Total $ 12,429,212 $ 12,429,212

The following table presents information about the Micro Cap Fund’s investments measured at fair value as of July 31, 2026:

Assets Level 1 Total
Common Stocks $ 11,399,591  $ 11,399,591
Short-Term Investment     372,442     372,442
    Total $ 11,772,033 $ 11,772,033

The Funds did not hold any Level 3 assets as of July 31, 2026. Therefore, a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs were used in determining fair value is not applicable. For more detail on the investments, please refer to the Schedules of Investments. The Funds also did not have transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the year ended July 31, 2026.

Note 5. Investment Advisory Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Pursuant to the Management Agreement between the Adviser and the Trust (the “Ranger Management Agreement”), Ranger Investment is entitled to investment advisory fees, computed daily and payable monthly, of 1.00% per annum of the average daily net assets of Small Cap Fund and Micro Cap Fund.

The Adviser may recoup any waived or reimbursed amount from each respective Fund pursuant to each expense limitation agreement if such reimbursement does not cause the respective Fund to exceed existing expense Fund limitations at the time of the original waiver/reimbursement and the reimbursement is made within three years after the respective adviser incurred the expenses. As of July 31, 2026, Ranger Investment is entitled to recapture $396,435 in expenses pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement from the Small Cap Fund and $217,771 in expenses pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement from the Micro Cap Fund.

Micro Cap Fund $ - $ - $ -

Note 11. Control Ownership

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of the fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of July 31, 2026, R. E. Smith Sub S Trust held approximately 77.54% of the voting securities of the Small Cap Fund and may be deemed to control the Small Cap Fund. As of July 31, 2026, Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. held in omnibus accounts for the benefit of others, approximately 47.58% of the voting securities of the Micro Cap Fund and may be deemed to control the Micro Cap Fund. However, the above ownership does not constitute control with respect to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC's”) auditor independence rules as they are not beneficial owners with significant influence over the Funds.

Note 12. Market Risk

The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Funds may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, climate change and climate-related events, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, international conflicts, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years, such as terrorist attacks around the world, natural disasters, social and political discord or debt crises and downgrades, among others, may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on both the U.S. and global financial markets. It is difficult to predict when similar events affecting the U.S. or global financial markets may occur, the effects that such events may have and the duration of those effects. Any such event(s) could have a significant adverse impact on the value and risk profile of the Funds.
