Best Regards, Noah Hamman CEO, AdvisorShares Investments An investment in the Funds is subject to risk, including the possible loss of principal amount invested. ADRs are subject to the risk of change in political or economic conditions and exchange rates in foreign countries. Certain funds may participate in leveraged transactions to include selling securities short which creates the risk of magnified capital losses. Under certain market conditions, short sales can increase the volatility and decrease the liquidity of certain securities or positions, and may lower the Fund’s return or result in a loss. There is no guarantee that the individual Funds’ will achieve the stated investment objectives. The risks associated with each Fund include the risks associated with the underlying ETFs, which can result in higher volatility, and are detailed in each Fund’s prospectus and on each Fund’s webpage.

8) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Accuvest Global Long Short ETF (AGLS) The one year ending June 30, 2015 was characterized by a wide range of performance for world equities. The MSCI World Index (ACWI) was up 1.43% for the 12 month period. The largest weight in the index, the US, was up over 6.9%., which masked the underlying weakness in world markets. The average country in the AGLS universe was down over -7.5%. China and Hong Kong were the only two countries up by double digits, up 24.6% and 12.4% respectively. Nine countries were down over 15%, including Austria, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Malaysia, Norway, Russia, Spain and Turkey. Performance for the AdvisorShares Accuvest Global Long Short ETF (NYSE Arca: AGLS) was below that of the ACWI benchmark, returning -4.2% over the period. Underperformance was primarily driven by 3 main factors: 1) A structural underweight to the US, which was again one of the best performing countries in the world, 2) A consistent net long exposure of 40 − 45% to a broad universe of countries, 3) Missing the majority of a fierce market rebound in February of 2015. In fact, the entire underperformance of the fund can be attributed to the return differential from that month. During the year, there were 6 periods in which the benchmark lost over 1%. AGLS outperformed the benchmark in 5 of those months, and was either flat or positive in 4 of those months. We feel that AGLS is well positioned for a market where the US is not a performance leader, and a market that is characterized by higher volatility and larger downside moves. The majority of short positions in AGLS are total return swaps. These aggregate positions range in size from 50% to 75% of the net value of the fund. We use these swaps as a way to get exposure in positions that are hard to borrow, or as a way to decrease our overall cost of shorting a particular country index. These positions are entirely for hedging purposes. A long position is the purchase of an investment with the expectation that it will rise in value. A short position is the sale of a borrowed investment with the expectation that it will decline in value.

10) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Athena High Dividend ETF (DIVI) The AdvisorShares Athena High Dividend ETF (NYSE Arca: DIVI) is built on three drivers that have been shown to deliver strong long term equity performance: 1. Higher yielding stocks on average generate higher total returns both in the US and internationally. Dividends represent a strong commitment by company management to its shareholders and the higher the yield the stronger this commitment. 2. But even with this powerful market discipline, some high dividend yield (DY) companies over promise and see their stock prices drop when they are unable to sustain dividends. In order to reduce this collateral damage, a quality screen based on Athena’s extensive mutual fund holdings database is used to help identify the best stock ideas of the best managers. 3. In each sector, International stocks often offer higher dividend yields than do similar US stocks. For this reason, we launched DIVI as a global portfolio rather than as US only. Over shorter time periods results can be quite different, as was the case during DIVI’s first year: • The biggest negative was a dramatic drop in oil prices during the second half of 2014 as DIVI was launched. Since DIVI is more exposed to energy than other high dividend portfolios, it suffered a greater drawdown. This was evidenced by five underperforming months in a row from September 2014 through January 2015, corresponding to the drop in oil prices from near $100 bbl. to $50 bbl. Since then, prices have stabilized. • But just when oil prices became less of an issue, high DY stocks began to dramatically underperform. High DY stocks were the darling of 2014, but are the goats of 2015. For some perspective, the top DY decile S&P 500 stocks are underperforming the bottom decile by 10% so far in 2015! Since DIVI’s DY is higher than most funds, its performance has suffered more than others in 2015. Dividend Yield is a financial ratio that shows how much a company pays out in dividends each year relative to its share price.

12) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares EquityPro ETF (EPRO) The AdvisorShares EquityPro ETF (NYSE Arca: EPRO) returned -1.89% on a Market Price basis, and -2.01% on an NAV basis for the twelve months ended June 30, 2015. While this compares to 7.42% return for the S&P 500 Index, in light of EPRO’s global posture, a comparison to the MSCI World Index, which returned to 1.43% for the same time period, provides an additional perspective. In October 2014, EPRO adopted a partially defensive position, with only 20% exposure to equities, due in large part to the S&P 500 Index trading under its 200-day moving average. This position was short-lived, however, as the market quickly rebounded, and proceeded to post new highs, including during the month of May 2015. On May 18, 2015, the Sub-Advisor appointed new portfolio managers for EPRO. We implemented several changes to the EPRO portfolio, including: international equity exposure which was decreased from 40% to 21%, due to less attractive relative valuation vs. U.S. equities and the recent run-up that had taken place in foreign stock markets. The Information Technology sector exposure was increased from 9% to 22%; Financial sector exposure was decreased from 18% to 8%; and the Health Care sector exposure was increased from 12% to 19%. In addition, sector allocations were adjusted in light of our revised approach to sector valuation discipline. As of June 30, 2015, EPRO’s portfolio was over-weighted in Consumer Staples, Health Care and Information Technology. In our opinion, these are the most attractively valued domestic equity sectors, while Financial and Utility companies are more over-valued relative to historical norms, and under-weighted relative to their S&P 500 weightings. Although risks continued to exist in the securities markets, EPRO remained 98% invested in equities, as of June 30, 2015. Given the structured nature of our investment process, it is significant to note that the S&P 500 Index had continued to trade above its 200-day moving average by approximately 1 − 4% during June 2015, and no part of the U.S. Treasury yield curve was inverted through June 30, 2015. As a result, as of that date, EPRO remained virtually fully exposed to equities going into the second half of 2015. Nonetheless, the investment process is structured with the flexibility to reduce risk in severe down markets, in the event that there is a change in the factors noted in this paragraph. The MSCI World Index is an unmanaged free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets. The 200-day moving average is an indicator used by traders to determine a stock’s closing average over a period of 200 consecutive days. Most traders use this technical indicator to determine trends in the market. A Yield Curve is a line that plots the interest rates, at a set point in time, of bonds having equal credit quality, but differing maturity dates. The most frequently reported yield curve compares the three month, two-year, five-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury debt. This yield curve is used as a benchmark for other debt in the market, such as mortgage rates or bank lending rates. The curve is also used to predict changes in economic output and growth. 8

14) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Gartman Gold/Euro ETF (GEUR) The spot price of gold (funded in US dollars) lagged most major asset classes during the period between 7/1/14 to 6/30/15. However, during this period, gold funded in the Euro currency performed quite well, increasing 8.4%, and outperformed the spot price of gold which was down 11.7%. The AdvisorShares Gartman Gold/Euro ETF’s (NYSE Arca: GEUR) portfolio strategy to provide investors this exposure was executed through the use of exchange traded futures contracts. These derivative contracts provide the most direct and liquid exposure with minimal transaction costs. The most significant factor affecting gold’s price performance has been the anticipated change in the United States’ monetary policy. The announcement of the end of quantitative easing and the anticipation of interest rate increases has caused the US dollar to get stronger. The softness in gold prices was largely due to its inverse relationship with the US dollar. The economic situation in Euroland was much different with the ECB announcing the start of its own quantitative easing program. This has caused the Euro to depreciate thereby helping GEUR outperform the spot price of gold. A Gold Future is an agreement to buy and sell quantities of gold on a particular date in the future at a fixed price.

16) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Gartman Gold/Yen ETF (GYEN) The spot price of gold (funded in US dollars) lagged most major asset classes during the period between 7/1/14 to 6/30/15. However, during this period, gold funded in Japanese Yen currency performed quite well, increasing 6.2% and outperformed the spot price of gold, which was down 11.7%. The AdvisorShares Gartman Gold/Yen ETF’s (NYSE Arca: GYEN) portfolio strategy to provide investors this exposure was executed through the use of exchange traded futures contracts. These derivative contracts provide the most direct and liquid exposure with minimal transaction costs. The most significant factor affecting gold’s price performance has been the anticipated change in the United States’ monetary policy. The announcement of the end of quantitative easing and the anticipation of interest rate increases has caused the US dollar to get stronger. The softness in gold prices was largely due to its inverse relationship with the US dollar. The economic situation in Japan was much different with Japan’s economy struggling to come out of its two decade recession. Japan had put forth a comprehensive plan with monetary and fiscal stimulus to finally get Japan on economic growth. This has caused the Yen to depreciate thereby helping GYEN outperform the spot price of gold. A Gold Future is an agreement to buy and sell quantities of gold on a particular date in the future at a fixed price.

20) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Madrona Domestic ETF (FWDD) The AdvisorShares Madrona Domestic Equity ETF (NYSE Arca: FWDD) gained +5.89% on both an NAV basis and a Market Price Basis compared to a gain of +7.42% for the S&P 500 Index. U.S. Equities valuations have surpassed long-term historical averages due to a combination of increasing prices and decreasing growth projections. As we move forward we believe that qualitative investing will be necessary to take advantage of opportunities in the market. We feel FWDD by nature is positioned to take advantage of opportunities in undervalued securities, while maintaining a material allocation to each sector and a broadly balanced diversified portfolio overall. Because price to earnings ratios do not paint the whole picture to evaluate a stock, the strategy incorporates the forward-looking long-term growth of earnings to rank each security within the basket. Additionally, companies with no or negative growth of earnings are eliminated from the portfolio.

22) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Madrona Global Bond ETF (FWDB) The AdvisorShares Madrona Global Bond ETF (NYSE Arca: FWDB) lost -2.37% on an NAV basis and -2.63% on a Market Price basis versus a gain of +1.86% for the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. It is our belief that inflation is not directly correlated to the interest rate investors are willing to pay for Government bonds. Inflation generally occurs when there is a shortage of cash type investments available, demand is outpacing supply, and companies are at or near capacity. None of these factors currently contribute to an inflationary environment. Many Advisors and broad based bond funds have shied away from any bonds other than short or ultra-short duration bonds. We believe there is opportunity for yield while not going too far out on the bond maturity timeline. In addition, investors may decide to taper back the purchase of the type of bonds that are most prevalent in most bond indexes. When the artificial demand for these bonds is removed, there could be a selling environment. It is our belief that any such sell-off by bond holders will require that investors find other investment alternatives. Assuming bond investors won’t stay idle, or flock to equities, we believe an opportunity exists. That opportunity is the transfer of investments from Government bonds to other bond categories such as corporates, high-yields, bank notes, emerging markets, preferred bonds, etc. This fund is well represented with these alternative categories of bonds.

26) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Meidell Tactical Advantage ETF (MATH) The AdvisorShares Meidell Tactical Advantage ETF (NYSE Arca: MATH) gained 3.52% on a Market Price basis and 3.47% on an NAV basis for the year ending June 30, 2015, while the S&P 500 Index rose 7.42% over the same period. Over the past twelve months, the relative performance of the S&P 500 Index has illustrated the changes in investor behavior over this period. In the second half of 2014, U.S. large cap stocks outperformed other U.S. asset classes, as investors became more risk averse following the growing expectation that the Federal Reserve would end quantitative easing by October of last year. Another challenge for MATH during the second half of 2014 was the Ebola panic during the September to October time frame. Due to the steepness of the stock market’s decline and rebound in such a short period of time, MATH’s quantitative methodology kept it from experiencing the stock market’s sharp loss in value, but was unable to capture much of the early rebound due to the trend-following nature of MATH’s methodology. As 2014 was coming to a close, small cap stocks began to outperform. This was largely a function of the strengthening U.S. dollar, which investors interpreted as a drag on large multi-national corporations who export goods overseas. The MATH portfolio increased its allocation to small cap stocks in late 2014 and participated in the rally that followed through June of 2015. In early 2015, foreign stocks began outperforming, as the European Central Bank declared its plans for a quantitative easing program. For the first five (5) months of 2015 MATH’s allocation to U.S. small cap and foreign stocks lifted the Fund ahead of most broad U.S. market indexes, but by mid-June of 2015, concerns of Greece defaulting on their loan to the IMF and potentially exiting the European Union, caused MATH shares to underperform the S&P 500 Index.

30) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Newfleet Multi-Sector Income ETF (MINC) The AdvisorShares Newfleet Multi-Sector Income Fund (NYSE Arca: MINC) returned 0.95% on a Market Price Basis during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 compared to a gain of 1.86% for the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. During the fiscal year the Fund’s short duration relative to the benchmark in a declining rate environment detracted from performance. Over the last 12 months, yields increased on the short end of the U.S. Treasury curve and decreased on the long end. Overall the yield curve flattened. The Fund’s allocation to the structured finance sectors (CMBS, non-agency residential mortgage-backed (RMBS), and asset-backed (ABS)) continues to play an important role in the Fund. Valuations remain attractive in the areas in which we invest, and this segment of the market offers diversification to sectors more sensitive to global macro fears. In addition, it offers diversification to the corporate credit allocation within the portfolio. Our consumer focus within ABS has been beneficial as the U.S. consumer continues to show the ability to lift the U.S. economy. CMBS has benefited from the strengthening U.S. economy and demand for U.S. real estate; underlying commercial real estate fundamentals remain strong and for the most part are not hurt by low oil prices. RMBS benefits from the continuing improvement in the housing market. High beta sectors such as corporate high yield and bank loans contributed to the Fund’s positive performance. Both benefited from investors’ higher risk appetite and reach for yield. The corporate high yield sector has performed well in an environment where rates have backed up. The sector has benefited from continued positive fundamentals (including low defaults), demand for yield (including strong demand from foreign investors), good relative value, and overall strength in U.S. risk assets. Issue selection within high yield also has contributed positively to performance. High yield bank loans, too, have performed well in a rising rate environment. The sector also has outperformed as a result of continued favorable technicals (due to demand from Collateralized Loan Obligation (CLO) issuance, lower loan fund outflows, and low net issuance), positive fundamentals (including low defaults), demand for yield, good relative value, and strength in U.S. risk assets. Within the corporate investment grade sector the Fund’s overweight to BBB rated securities benefitted performance as they outperformed the broader corporate investment grade index. We are constructive on sectors with a yield advantage to U.S. Treasuries as credit fundamentals remain positive and spreads remain at attractive levels. With positive fundamentals such as low defaults and good interest coverage, modest demand for fixed income by investors, and a supportive environment for fixed income, spread sectors continue to offer attractive investment opportunities to investors searching for total return and yield. Some of the specific sectors where we see value are higher quality corporate high yield, out-of-index/off-the-run asset-backed securities, high yield bank loans, new issue corporate investment grade and selective emerging market sovereigns. Over the fiscal year, we continued to invest cash from inflows and sale proceeds, primarily focusing on the addition of higher quality bank loans, corporate high yield bonds, corporate high quality bonds and asset backed securities. We have continued to overweight spread sectors, seeking to take advantage of higher yields and wider spreads. The Yield Curve is a line that plots the interest rates, at a set point in time, of bonds having equal credit quality, but differing maturity dates. The most frequently reported yield curve compares the three-month, two-year, five-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury debt. This yield curve is used as a benchmark for other debt in the market, such as mortgage rates or bank lending rates. The curve is also used to predict changes in economic output and growth. An Asset Backed Security (ABS) is a financial security backed by a loan, lease or receivables against assets other than real estate and mortgage-backed securities. For investors, asset-backed securities are an alternative to investing in corporate debt. Beta is a measure of the volatility, or systematic risk, of a security or a portfolio in comparison to the market as a whole. Beta is used in the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), a model that calculates the expected return of an asset based on its beta and expected market returns. 26

32) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Pacific Asset Enhanced Floating Rate ETF (FLRT) The AdvisorShares Pacific Asset Enhanced Floating Rate ETF (NYSE Arca: FLRT) earned a total return 0.47% (NAV) and 0.62% (Market Price) for the three months ending June 30, 2015, and has provided return of 0.71% (Market Price) and 0.47% (NAV) since inception. For the three months ending June 30, 2015, the Credit Suisse Institutional Leveraged Loan Index (CSILLI) was up 0.98%, with the S&P/LSTA 100 Index returning -0.09%. This underperformance was attributed to FLRT’s exposure to specific sectors, including metals/minerals, utilities and consumer durables. Utilities and metals/minerals lagged the Index and the underperformance was due to declining coal and iron ore prices. We continue to hold higher-rated, more liquid loans within FLRT. We believe they will continue to strike the best balance among limited rate sensitivity, attractive income and reasonable default risk. The portfolio also maintains a significant exposure to non-bank loan assets, primarily through lower-than-average duration high yield bonds. FLRT dynamically utilizes Total Return Swaps to add incremental bank loan credit risk to the fund. We believe that, over time, investors will benefit from having a modestly levered exposure to the bank loan market. Our ETF risk committee has targeted leverage equivalent to up to 20% of the assets of the fund. Due to the relative value of leverage available, we’ve elected to hold the leverage component closer to 10% of the size of the fund currently. A Total Return Swap is a swap agreement in which one party makes payments based on a set rate, either fixed or variable, while the other party makes payments based on the return of an underlying asset, which includes both the income it generates and any capital gains. A Bank Loan is a loan or a line of credit expended to a corporation from a traditional bank. Leverage is the amount of debt used to finance a firm’s assets.

34) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Peritus High Yield ETF (HYLD) The AdvisorShares Peritus High Yield ETF (NYSE Arca: HYLD) returned -16.88% during fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 on a market price basis and -16.82% on a NAV basis, compared to a return of -0.40% for the Barclays Capital U.S. Corporate High Yield Index. Our underperformance relative to the index was caused largely by our energy exposure during the final quarter of 2014. Based on the research we had done and our in-depth understanding of the energy market, we had made a strategic allocation to the this sector during 2014, and we, like most of the market, were surprised by the swiftness and severity of the decline in oil prices in the latter half of 2014 and into early 2015. No one, including us, projected a 50% decline in oil prices, especially given that global energy markets were merely in a slight over-supply situation and demand was still growing. Another related factor that had an impact on the portfolio was the decision we had made to include dividend paying equities in the portfolio, many of them in the energy space. During 2014, in an effort to protect income and, in several cases, execute on our energy thesis, we had decided to include selective master limited partnerships (MLPs) and dividend paying equities in the portfolio. While this did serve to protect income and provide what we saw as attractive yield, it did introduce an additional level of volatility to the portfolios, especially as we saw the swift decline in oil prices. As 2015 began and the reality of low oil prices was evident for the time being, we cut our energy holdings by more than half of what it was when we exited 2014, though this didn’t mean we eliminated all of our energy exposure. We are still long term believers that oil prices will have to rise from here, but that may take the better part of a year to happen. Additionally, during the first half of calendar 2015 we eliminated our equity positions. While our intention with purchasing dividend equities was to protect the fund’s yield and take advantage of various yield-bearing opportunities within the company’s entire capital structure, the latter part of 2014 and early 2015 demonstrated that these equities produced excessive volatility within the fund. As of the end of the fiscal year, we have exited our equity positions and do not intend to undertake further equity investments at this time. Finally we are taking steps to broaden out our portfolio in terms of the number of holdings, including adding some more recognizable and highly liquid names that are more familiar to our market makers but still meet our investment criteria. For more detail about our strategy behind these changes within the portfolio, see our recent piece ‘‘The Past, Present and Future,’’ as well as our ‘‘Mid-Year Update,’’ both found on the HYLD website (http://hyld.advisorshares.com).

36) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Pring Turner Business Cycle ETF (DBIZ) The AdvisorShares Pring Turner Business Cycle ETF (NYSE Arca: DBIZ) finished -12.50% on a market price basis and -12.42% on a NAV basis for the year ending June 30, 2015. In comparison, the S&P 500 was up 7.42%. DBIZ is a multi-asset, active allocation fund with holdings in bonds, stocks, commodity and cash and may exhibit less volatile than the S&P 500. Since inception, DBIZ’s portfolio volatility (Beta = 0.53) is significantly lower than the S&P 500’s (Beta = 1.0). DBIZ has a pro-active asset allocation and sector rotation strategy designed to adapt to the ever-changing economy and financial markets. During the course of a typical business cycle, the three main asset classes: bonds, stocks and commodities move through favorable and unfavorable periods. This results in six turning points or ‘‘Stages,’’ each of which offers a different environment for optimum asset allocation. DBIZ is designed as a core total return multi-asset fund for conservative investors. As of June 2015 our proprietary business cycle stage work resides in ‘‘Stage 2’’, a part of the cycle that typically favors stocks and disfavors inflation sensitive commodities. The current environment is in stark contrast to a year ago when inflation was picking up and natural resource themes were leading the market higher. For instance, energy and metals sectors were strong going into the Fall of 2014 when oil and other commodities abruptly started a precipitous decline and hurt fund performance. Over a period of several months late in 2014, DBIZ was re-positioned with broader diversification by sector. Currently, the fund has its largest sector weightings in Financials, Technology, Staples and Consumer Discretionary stocks. For now, inflation sensitive areas are de-emphasized in the fund. The current strategy for the fixed income side of the portfolio is to keep a relatively low bond allocation and use a short/intermediate term bond ladder approach to help protect against higher interest rates. Beta is a measure of the volatility, or systematic risk, of a security or a portfolio in comparison to the market as a whole. Beta is used in the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), a model that calculates the expected return of an asset based on its beta and expected market returns.

38) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares QAM Equity Hedge ETF (QEH) The AdvisorShares QAM Equity Hedge ETF (NYSE: Arca: QEH) incepted on August 7, 2012. For the period ending 6/30/2015 QEH has returned 6.00% on a Net Asset Value annualized basis and 6.01% on a Market Price annualized basis since inception. For the one year period ending 6/30/2015 QEH returned 1.48% on an NAV basis and 1.60% on a Market Price basis. Performance in the fund was slightly behind our benchmark, the HFRI Equity Hedge (Total) Index, but was still within the range of expectations for the strategy. The Fund utilizes a fundamental and quantitative investment process to estimate the aggregate net market exposures of a large universe of long/short equity hedge funds defined by the HFRI Equity Hedge (Total) Index. The Fund’s sub-advisor has fundamentally identified over 25 groups of long/short equity hedge fund managers within the Index and utilizes a factor based system to attempt to identify the net exposures for each group. The sub-advisor believes that by replicating the net exposures of each group, over time the Fund’s return will closely track that of the index. In the year ended June 2015, we believe dominant performance of the US equity markets has begun to fade against its global counterparts. The moderately net exposed global portfolio for QEH partially participated in the gains while doing so with a lower beta to the S&P 500. Throughout the year, there was a tug of war between a friendly low interest rate environment and unfriendly geopolitical situations ranging from Russia and Ukraine to Greece and the European Union. In addition, the concerns of a slowdown in China weighed on markets. As the markets bounced up and down, our models indicated that the universe of long/short equity hedge fund managers, in aggregate, kept their net exposures in a fairly tight band around 60% net long. Within economic sectors, Information Technology was the largest allocation followed by Healthcare, Financials and Consumer Discretionary. Net exposure to North America remained the largest geographic exposure, however during the year exposures to developed Non-U.S., emerging, and frontier markets were rising. QEH is a diversified and moderately net exposed portfolio providing a lower volatility approach to global equity markets that we believe can produce superior risk adjusted returns over time. A long position is the purchase of an investment with the expectation that it will rise in value. A short position is the sale of a borrowed investment with the expectation that it will decline in value.

Performance was driven by a mid-capitalization growth exposure allocated to stocks not in the S&P 500 Index and to some extent several large capitalization holdings. The fund remained nearly fully invested over the entire 12 month period in aggressive growth stocks despite equity markets pushing to new highs. The valuation of market indices on a price/revenue basis is at a multi-decade high. Sentiment among both professional and individual investors has reached extremes on numerous occasions over the past 12 months. The percentage of unprofitable IPOs reached a 25-year high over the past 12 months. In addition, household liquidity has turned down while margin leverage has increased. As a result, the fund managers have maintained an aggressive short position for the fund. A short position is the sale of a borrowed investment with the expectation that it will decline in value.

42) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Sage Core Reserves ETF (HOLD) The AdvisorShares Sage Core Reserves ETF (NYSE Arca: HOLD) returned 0.00% for the year ending June 30, 2015 on a NAV basis. The Barclays 1 − 3 Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index, a common short-term benchmark, in contrast returned 0.01% over the same period. During the 12 months ending June 30 2015, fixed income investors experienced significant volatility of credit spreads and interest rates. Changing Fed policy contributed to volatility as the Federal Reserve ended its QE3 asset-purchase program in October 2014, and has more recently shifted its communications to manage expectations toward tighter monetary policy in the future. Despite record monetary policy stimulus in the US and worldwide, economic growth and inflation have remained stubbornly low. The US unemployment rate fell from 6.3% to 5.5% over the same period. As of June 30, US GDP growth and CPI (year-over-year) were 2.9% and 0%, respectively. The 10-year Treasury yield began the period at 2.53%, dropped below 2% and ended the period at 2.35%. Investment-grade credit spreads began the period at 0.96% and ended it at 1.37%. During this time of turbulence we have maintained a high-quality, defensive fixed income allocation with average portfolio duration hovering slightly above half a year, including short futures positions. We maintained broad diversification through exposure to assets in the US government, corporate, mortgage-backed and asset-backed sectors, among others. Credit Spread is the spread between Treasury securities and non-Treasury securities that are identical in all respects except for quality rating. Duration is a measure of the sensitivity of the price (the value of principal) of a fixed-income investment to a change in interest rates. Duration is expressed as a number of years. The Short Futures position is an unlimited profit, unlimited risk position that can be entered by the futures speculator to profit from a fall in the price of the underlying.

44) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares STAR Global Buy-Write ETF (VEGA) The AdvisorShares STAR Global Buy-Write ETF (NYSE Arca: VEGA) gained 1.49% for the year ending June 30, 2015 on a Market Price basis and 1.60% on an NAV basis. By comparison, VEGA’s Policy Benchmark* gained 1.98% over the same period. In addition, for the year VEGA achieved a beta of just under 0.60 versus the S&P 500. VEGA is a broadly diversified ETF that includes other asset classes beyond the S&P 500, such as, individual equities, foreign developed and emerging market equities, global bonds and domestic fixed-income. We believe that VEGA, over full market cycles, can provide its benefit in declining markets by harnessing volatility in the form of earned option premiums from covered calls and cash-secured puts, and utilizing cash as a strategic asset intended to be reinvested when levels of implied volatility on its constituent ETFs is higher than average. Typically, VEGA will benefit from volatile markets while participating less in strongly trending markets. VEGA differs from other strictly formulaic BuyWrite funds in several ways, notably: 1. Invests in a global ‘‘go anywhere’’ portfolio 2. Invests in fixed-income as well as equity securities 3. Adjusts the percent covered of the underlying positions, depending on the current volatility regime, which allows for more appreciation potential when volatility is high. 4. Engages in ‘‘volatility-based reinvestment’’ by redeploying strategic cash reserves when volatility is high and prices are lower. 5. Uses protective puts as a tactical overlay Beta is a measure of the volatility, or systematic risk, of a security or a portfolio in comparison to the market as a whole. Beta is used in the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), a model that calculates the expected return of an asset based on its beta and expected market returns. A covered call is an options strategy whereby an investor holds a long position in an asset and writes (sells) call options on that same asset in an attempt to generate increased income from the asset. This is often employed when an investor has a short-term neutral view on the asset and for this reason hold the asset long and simultaneously have a short position via the option to generate income from the option premium. An investor who employs a cash-secured put writes a put contract, and at the same time deposits in his brokerage account the full cash amount for a possible purchase of underlying shares. The purpose of depositing this cash is to ensure that it’s available should the investor be assigned on the short put position and be obligated to purchase shares at the put’s strike price. While the cash is on deposit it may generally be invested in short-term, interest-bearing instruments. * VEGA’s Policy Benchmark comprises a 37.5% weighting to the MSCI World Index, 37.5% to the CBOE BuyWrite Index and 25% to the Barclays’ Intermediate Government/Credit Index. 40

46) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares Sunrise Global Multi-Strategy ETF (MULT) The AdvisorShares Sunrise Global Multi-Strategy ETF (NASDAQ: MULT) returned a -2.61% on a Market Price basis and -2.58% on an NAV basis from inception through June 30th, 2015 as compared to 7.92% for the Barclays Hedge BTOP50 Index. During the period in question, generally positive equity futures, bond futures and ETF trading results were undercut by sub-optimal currency future trading results. The primary culprit for the currency challenges was an inordinate amount of short term price vacillation, particularly in the case of the Swiss franc which since a series of unexpected interventionary moves by the Swiss monetary authorities in January 2015, has demonstrated unprecedented volatility swings that seasoned investors such as Sunrise have not seen in more than three decades of trading. Overall, the diversified nature of the total MULT portfolio muted the effects of currency challenges to some degree but the product’s outcome to date was nonetheless undermined. Looking forward Sunrise would expect the MULT portfolio to achieve even better balance and would expect the strategy to begin to gain traction across global equity, bond and currency markets, particularly if those markets begin to demonstrate more defined patterns of directional volatility as opposed to what have been largely ‘‘whippy’’ markets since MULT’s July 2014 inception.

The AdvisorShares TrimTabs Float Shrink ETF (NYSE Arca: TTFS) outperformed both broad-market indices with a total return of 12.06% net of all fees. During the first half of 2015, the fund advanced 3.11%, more than double the return of the S&P 500 Index (1.23%), while outperforming the Russell 3000 Index by 1.17%. If we look back further, TTFS has established a 23.13% lead in cumulative performance versus the S&P 500 Index since its inception on October 4, 2011.

50) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares WCM/BNY Mellon Focused Growth ADR ETF (AADR) The AdvisorShares WCM/BNY Mellon Focused Growth ADR ETF (NYSE Arca: AADR) returned +0.36% from July 1, 2014 to the period ended June 30, 2015, outperforming the MSCI EAFE Index which returned -4.22%. Importantly, AADR delivered a positive return in a down year. While our bottom-up structural biases (underweight Financials & Telecom, overweight Tech & Health Care) were a tailwind overall, the majority of our outperformance was driven by positive stock selection. The vast majority of AADR’s outperformance for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 was driven by stock selection, which was positive in each of the last four quarters. Noting once more that there are indeed environments — such as the first half of last year — that are hostile to AADR’s approach, we’re pleased to report that we’ve had four successive quarters of ‘‘good’’ conditions. There was no artificial size distinction (in ACWI ex US, Small outperformed Large, but just barely), but there was an unambiguous distinction in favor of profitability: higher ROE outperformed lower ROE. What we wrote nine months ago still holds true: ‘‘. . . mean reversion alone should benefit AADR over the next couple of years.’’ This seems to have gone as hoped and should continue for awhile longer. But best of all it reinforces our conviction that turmoil in the world creates exciting new investment opportunities and refocuses the market on structurally high-quality businesses (those with growing moats and strong long-term tailwinds) rather than mediocre businesses benefitting from temporary/cyclical phenomena.

52) ADVISORSHARES TRUST AdvisorShares YieldPro ETF (YPRO) The AdvisorShares YieldPro ETF (NASDAQ: YPRO) provided a total Market Price return of -5.20% and an NAV return of -4.92% over the twelve-month period ending June 30, 2015. This compares to the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 1.86% over the same time period. We have written in the past about the excesses we were observing in a variety of markets, most specifically the loan and high yield markets. We believed that the market was underpricing a variety of risks, including but not limited to, the risks of a rise in interest rates, a resurgence of the European debt crisis, and a potential liquidity crisis in the high yield market and the loan market. On May 18, 2015, the Sub-Advisor appointed new portfolio managers for YPRO. The new managers implemented several changes to YPRO’s portfolio, including: common stock holdings which were replaced with bonds; High yield bond holdings were reduced from 30% to 20%; the average effective duration of the bond holdings was reduced from 8 years to 3.3 years; and interest rate risk would be managed by targeted maturity management, as opposed to through the use of active hedging strategies, which had been the case prior to May 2015. As of June 30th, YPRO’s portfolio was 100% invested in domestic fixed income securities and cash equivalents. As of that date, we evaluated the risk of holding longer-term maturity fixed income securities as relatively high. As a result, we targeted a duration of 3.25 years. The only longer-term holdings in the portfolio, as of June 30th, consisted of a 15% allocation to the municipal bond market. Historically, municipals have tended to be less volatile than other segments of the longer-term bond market. Credit risk is also managed with targeted holdings. As of June 30, YPRO was targeting 20% in the high-yield sector with a specific maturity target of less than 5 years. 81% of the YPRO portfolio was invested in investment grade securities. We intend to continue to watch the Fund’s exposure to high yield bonds, as high yield bonds have historically been highly correlated with equity market volatility. Duration is a measure of the sensitivity of the price (the value of principal) of a fixed-income investment to a change in interest rates. Duration is expressed as a number of years.

Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost. Fund NAV returns are calculated using the Fund’s daily 4:00 p.m. NAV. Returns shown include the reinvestment of all dividends and other distributions. Index returns do not include expenses. As stated in the current prospectus, the Fund’s annual operating expense ratio (gross) and net expense ratio is 1.51%. (Actual expenses can be referenced in the Financial Highlights section later in this report.) The Fund’s advisor has agreed to waive a portion of its fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to keep the Fund’s expenses from exceeding 1.25%. Returns less than one year are not annualized. The performance table and graph do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. For the Fund’s most recent month end performance, please call 1-877-843-3831. * ** Commencement of operations. The price used to calculate market return (‘‘Market Price’’) is determined by using the closing price listed on the NYSE Arca and does not represent returns an investor would receive if shares were traded at other times. Total returns are calculated using the daily 4:00 pm midpoint between the bid and offer. Shares are bought and sold at market price, not NAV and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. The Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged index considered representative of the performance of the U.S. investment grade bond market. One cannot invest directly in an index. 49 

54) ADVISORSHARES TRUST Shareholder Expense Examples As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur transaction cost and ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds. The examples are based on an initial investment of $1,000 invested at January 1, 2015 and held for the period ended June 30, 2015. Actual Expenses The first line under each Fund in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred 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 under the heading entitled ‘‘Expenses Paid’’ to estimate the expenses attributable to your account during this period. Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes The second line under each Fund in the table 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 for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other ETF 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. Therefore, the hypothetical example is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Fund principally invests in investment-grade securities, which are securities with credit ratings within the four highest rating categories of a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, those securities that the Sub-Advisor determines to be of comparable quality. AdvisorShares Pacific Asset Enhanced Floating Rate ETF (‘‘Pacific Asset Enhanced Floating Rate ETF’’) seeks to provide a high level of current income. The fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by selecting a focused portfolio comprised primarily of income producing floating rate loans and floating rate debt securities. Under normal circumstances, it will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in floating rate loans and other floating rate debt securities and in derivatives or other instruments that have economic characteristics similar to such securities (such as swap agreements, including, but not limited to, total return swaps, credit default swaps, and interest rate swaps). AdvisorShares Peritus High Yield ETF (‘‘Peritus High Yield ETF’’) seeks high current income by investing in a focused portfolio of high yield debt securities commonly referred to as ‘‘junk bonds’’. The Fund does not have any portfolio maturity limitation and may invest in instruments with short-term, medium-term or long-term maturities. AdvisorShares Pring Turner Business Cycle ETF (‘‘Pring Turner Business Cycle ETF’’) seeks long-term growth from capital appreciation and income.

Organization − (continued) AdvisorShares Ranger Equity Bear ETF (‘‘Ranger Equity Bear ETF’’) seeks capital appreciation through short sales of domestically traded equity securities. The portfolio management team implements a bottom-up, fundamental, research driven security selection process. In selecting short positions, the Fund seeks to identify securities with low earnings quality or aggressive accounting which may be intended on the part of company management to mask operational deterioration and bolster the reported earnings per share over a short time period. In addition, the portfolio management team seeks to identify earnings driven events that may act as a catalyst to the price decline of a security, such as downwards earnings revisions or reduced forward guidance. AdvisorShares Sage Core Reserves ETF (‘‘Sage Core Reserves ETF’’) seeks to preserve capital while maximizing income. The Sub-Advisor seeks to achieve the fund’s investment objective by investing in a variety of fixed income securities, including bonds, forwards and instruments issued by U.S. and foreign issuers. It will invest in U.S. dollar-denominated investment grade debt securities, including mortgage- or asset-backed securities, rated Baa- or higher by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (‘‘Moody’s’’), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (‘‘S&P’’) or Fitch, Inc. (‘‘Fitch’’), or, if unrated, determined by the Sub-Advisor to be of comparable quality. AdvisorShares STAR Global Buy-Write ETF (‘‘STAR Global Buy-Write ETF’’) seeks consistent repeatable returns across all market cycles. The Portfolio Manager seeks to achieve this investment objective by using a proprietary strategy known as Volatility Enhanced Global Appreciation (VEGA). VEGA employs a ‘‘Buy-Write’’ or ‘‘Covered Call’’ overlay for their global allocation strategy using ETPs. The strategy simultaneously writes (sells) a call option against each position in order to seek cumulative price appreciation from the portfolio’s global exposure, while generating a consistent income stream from the sale of covered call and/or cash-secured put options. When volatility is low the portfolio manager buys protective put options to manage downside risk. AdvisorShares Sunrise Global Multi-Strategy ETF (‘‘Sunrise Global Multi-Strategy ETF’’) seeks to provide long-term total returns by investing long and short in a variety of asset classes and investment strategies. The Portfolio Manager seeks to achieve MULT’s objective by tactically investing, both long and short, in global equity, bond, currency and commodity markets as opportunities arise within those markets.

AdvisorShares WCM/BNY Mellon Focused Growth ADR ETF (‘‘WCM/BNY Mellon Focused Growth ADR ETF’’) seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in other Underlying ETFs, American Depository Receipts (ADRs) included in the BNY Mellon Classic ADR Index, the Fund’s primary index, and swap contracts.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies These financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (‘‘GAAP’’) which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements 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 Valuation In computing each Fund’s NAV, the Fund’s securities holdings are valued based on their last readily available market price. Price information on listed securities, including Underlying ETFs, is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. Securities regularly traded in an OTC market are valued at the latest quoted sales price on the primary exchange or national securities market on which such securities are traded. Securities not listed on an exchange or national securities market, or securities in which there was no last reported sales price, are valued at the most recent bid price. Other portfolio securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued based on fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Investment Transactions Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investment securities are calculated using the identified cost method. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. Premiums and discounts are amortized over the life of the bond using the effective interest method. Expenses Expenses of the Trust, which are directly identifiable to a specific Fund, are applied to that Fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific Fund are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative net assets of each Fund. 163 

168) ADVISORSHARES TRUST Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2015 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies − (continued) Swap Agreements Certain funds may invest in equity swaps to obtain exposure to the underlying referenced security, obtain leverage or enjoy the returns from ownership without actually owning equity. Equity swaps are two-party contracts that generally obligate one party to pay the positive return and the other party to pay the negative return on a specified reference security, basket of securities, security index or index component during the period of the swap. Equity swap contracts are marked to market daily based on the value of the underlying security and the change, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Equity swaps normally do not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to equity swaps is normally limited to the net amount of payments that a Fund is contractually obligated to make. If the other party to an equity swap defaults a Fund’s risk of loss consists of the net amount of payments that the Fund is contractually entitled to receive, if any. Equity swaps are derivatives and their value can be very volatile. To the extent that the Adviser or Sub-Adviser, as applicable, do not accurately analyze and predict future market trends, the values of assets or economic factors, the Funds may suffer a loss, which may be substantial. The swap markets in which many types of swap transactions are traded have grown substantially in recent years, with a large number of banks and investment banking firms acting both as principals and as agents. As a result, the markets for certain types of swaps have become relatively liquid. Periodic payments received or paid by the Funds are recorded as realized gains or losses. Repurchase Agreements The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements provided that the value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest, will equal or exceed the value of the repurchase agreement during the term of the agreement. The underlying collateral for all repurchase agreements is held in safekeeping by the Fund’s custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited. At June 30, 2015 the market values of repurchase agreements outstanding are included as cash collateral for securities on loan on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Short Sales Certain Funds may sell securities it does not own as a hedge against some of its long positions and/or in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security (short sale). When the Funds make a short sale, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale. The Funds may have to pay a fee to borrow the particular security and may be obligated to remit any interest or dividends received on such borrowed securities. Dividends declared on short positions open are recorded on the ex-date as an expense. A gain, limited to the price at which the Funds sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in magnitude, will be recognized upon the termination of a short sale if the market price at termination is less than or greater than, respectively, the proceeds originally received. The Funds are also subject to the risk that it may be unable to reacquire a security to terminate a short position except at a price substantially in excess of the last quoted price. 164 

169) ADVISORSHARES TRUST Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2015 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies − (continued) The Funds are required to pledge cash or securities to the broker as collateral for the securities sold short. Collateral requirements are calculated daily based on the current market value of the short positions. Cash deposited with broker for collateral for securities sold short is recorded as an asset on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and securities segregated as collateral are denoted in the Schedule of Investments. The Funds may receive or pay the net of the following amounts: (i) a portion of the income from the investment of cash collateral; (ii) the broker’s fee on the borrowed securities; and (iii) a financing charge for the difference in the market value of the short position and cash collateral deposited with the broker. This income or fee is calculated daily based upon the market value of each borrowed security and a variable rate that is dependent on the availability of the security. The net amounts of income or fees paid by QAM Equity Hedge ETF and Ranger Equity Bear ETF for the year ended June 30, 2015 are $11,570 and $1,112,213, respectively, which are included as Interest on Securities Sold Short, Not Yet Purchased in the Statements of Operations. Deposits with brokers and segregated cash for securities sold short represent cash balances on deposit with the Funds’ prime brokers and custodian. The Funds are subject to credit risk should the prime brokers be unable to meet its obligations to the Funds. Futures Contracts Certain Funds may invest in futures contracts (‘‘futures’’), may invest in futures in order to hedge its investments against fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates or market conditions. Such Funds may invest in futures as a primary investment strategy. Investments in futures may increase or leverage exposure to a particular market risk, thereby increasing price volatility of derivative instruments a Fund holds. No monies are paid or received by a Fund upon the purchase or sale of a futures contract. Initially, a Fund will be required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or cash equivalents, known as initial margin, based on the value of the contract. Subsequent payments, called variation margin, to and from the broker, will be made on a daily basis as the price of the underlying instruments fluctuates, making the long and short positions in the futures contract more or less valuable, a process known as ‘marking-to-the-market.’ Once a final determination of variation margin is made, additional cash is required to be paid by or released to a Fund, and a Fund will realize a loss or gain. The Funds may be subject to the risk that the change in the value of the futures contract may not correlate perfectly with the underlying index. Use of long futures contracts subjects the Funds to risk of loss in excess of the amounts shown on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, up to the notional value of the futures contracts. Use of short futures contracts subjects the Funds to unlimited risk of loss. The Funds may enter into futures contracts only on exchanges or boards of trade. The exchange or board of trade acts as the counterparty to each futures contract; therefore, the Funds’ credit risk is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade. Under some circumstances, futures exchanges may establish daily limits on the amount that the price of a futures contract can vary from the previous day’s settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of unfavorable positions. Options Certain Funds are authorized to write and purchase put and call options. When a Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is reflected as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value of the option written. When a security is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the security acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the security sold. When an option expires (or the Fund enters into a closing transaction), the Fund realizes a gain or loss on the option to the extent of the premiums received or paid (or gain or loss to the extent the cost of the closing transaction 165 

170) ADVISORSHARES TRUST Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2015 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies − (continued) exceeds the premium paid or received). The Fund, as writer of an option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. Written and purchased options are non-income producing investments. Short-Term Investments Each Fund may invest in high-quality short-term debt securities and money market instruments on an ongoing basis to maintain liquidity or pending selection of investments in accordance with its policies. These short-term debt securities and money market instruments include shares of other mutual funds, commercial paper, certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances, U.S. Government securities and repurchase agreements. Securities Lending The Funds participate in a securities lending program offered by The Bank of New York Mellon (‘‘BNYM’’) (the ‘‘Program’’), providing for the lending of securities to qualified brokers. Securities lending income includes earnings of such temporary cash investments, plus or minus any rebate to a borrower. These earnings (after any rebate) are then divided between BNYM, as a fee for its services under the Program, and the Funds, according to agreed-upon rates. Collateral on all securities loaned is accepted in cash and is maintained at a minimum level of 102% (105% in the case of certain foreign securities) of the market value, plus interest, if applicable, of investments on loan. It is the Fund’s policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Funds if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. Under the terms of the Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by BNYM. Cash collateral is held in a separate account managed by BNYM, who is authorized to exclusively enter into overnight repurchase agreements. BNYM bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the cash collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested. The repurchase agreement income related to the Program earned by the Funds is disclosed on the Statements of Operations. 166

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date. Indemnifications In the normal course of business, each Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements cannot be known; however, the Trust expects any risk of loss to be remote. 167

As part of its agreement with the Trust, the Advisor has contractually agreed to pay all operating expenses of the Global Echo ETF. There are no expenses reimbursed or recouped for that Fund. Administrator, Custodian, Fund Accountant and Transfer Agent The Bank of New York Mellon (‘‘BNYM’’) (in each capacity, the ‘‘Administrator’’, ‘‘Custodian’’, ‘‘Fund Accountant’’ or ‘‘Transfer Agent’’), serves as the Fund’s Administrator, Custodian, Fund Accountant and Transfer Agent pursuant to a certain Fund Administration and Accounting Agreement, a Custody Agreement or a Transfer Agency and Service Agreement, as the case may be. 171 

176) ADVISORSHARES TRUST Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2015 4. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Agreements − (continued) Distribution and Service (12b-1) Plan Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the ‘‘Distributor’’) serves as the Fund’s distributor of Creation Units for the Fund pursuant to the distribution agreement. The Distributor does not maintain any secondary market shares. The Funds have adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (‘‘Plan’’) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. In accordance with its Plan, each Fund is authorized to pay an amount up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets each year for certain distribution-related activities. No fees are currently paid by each Fund under the Plan, and there are no current plans to impose these fees. However, in the event Rule 12b-1 fees were charged, over time they would increase the cost of an investment in each Fund. 5. Creation and Redemption Transactions The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV in groups of 25,000 shares, at minimum, called ‘‘Creation Units.’’ Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of a Fund. Only ‘‘Authorized Participants’’ may purchase or redeem shares directly from each Fund. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. Most retail investors will not qualify as Authorized Participants or have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they will be unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Fund. Rather, most retail investors will purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and will be subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees. 6. Summary of Fair Value Disclosure The Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (‘‘FASB’’) Accounting Standards Codification (‘‘ASC’’) 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes an authoritative framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below: Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the company has 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 on 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 that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available. 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 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 172 

177) ADVISORSHARES TRUST Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2015 6. Summary of Fair Value Disclosure − (continued) quotation; (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 on which the security is traded but before the time as of which a Fund’s net asset value is computed and that may materially affect the value of the Fund’s investment). Examples of events that may be ‘‘significant events’’ are government actions, natural disasters, armed conflicts and acts of terrorism. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Summary of Fair Value Disclosure − (continued) There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements that occurred during the year ended June 30, 2015. The Funds did not hold any Level 3 securities as of June 30, 2015. 7. Valuation of Derivative Instruments The Funds have adopted authoritative standards of accounting for derivative instruments which establish disclosure requirement for derivative instruments. These standards improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by requiring enhanced disclosures that enables investors to understand how and why a fund uses derivatives instruments, how derivatives instruments are accounted for and how derivative instruments affect a fund’s financial position and results of operations. The Funds use derivative instruments as part of their principal investment strategy to achieve their investment objective. At June 30, 2015, the fair values of derivative instruments were as follows: Statements of Assets and Liabilities: Fund: Asset Derivatives: Accuvest Global Long Short ETF . .

181) ADVISORSHARES TRUST Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2015 8. Federal Income Tax The Funds intend to qualify as a ‘‘regulated investment company’’ under Sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If so qualified, the Funds will not be subject to Federal income tax to the extent it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to its shareholders. Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements, and requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing a Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are ‘‘more-likely-than-not’’ of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-than-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Interest and penalty related to income taxes would be recorded as income tax expense. Management of the Funds is required to analyze all open tax years (2013 − 2015), as defined by IRS statute of limitations, for all major jurisdictions, including federal tax authorities and certain state tax authorities. As of June 30, 2015, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds have no examination in progress and is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

Risks Involved with Investing in the Funds The Funds are subject to the principal risks described below, some or all of these risks may adversely affect the Funds’ NAV, trading price, yield, total return and ability to meet its investment objective. As with any investment, an investment in each Fund could result in a loss or the performance of each Fund could be inferior to that of other investments. Fund of Funds Risk Some of the Funds’ investment performance, because they are fund of funds, depends on the investment performance of the Underlying ETFs in which they invest. An investment in these Funds is subject to the risk associated with the Underlying ETFs that comprise their Underlying Index. The Funds will indirectly pay a proportional share of the asset-based fees, if any, of the Underlying ETFs in which they invest. Liquidity Risk In certain circumstances, it may be difficult for the Fund to purchase and sell particular investments within a reasonable time at a fair price. To the extent that there is not an established retail market for instruments in which the Fund may invest, trading in such instruments may be relatively inactive. Trading in shares may be halted because of market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the Exchange, make trading in shares inadvisable. In addition, trading in shares is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to ‘‘circuit breaker’’ rules. There can be no assurance that the requirements necessary to maintain the listing of the shares of the Fund will continue to be met or will remain unchanged. Market Risk Investments in securities, in general, are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. The Fund’s investments may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, or particular countries, segments, economic sectors, industries or companies within those markets. The value of a security held in a short position may increase due to general economic and market conditions which are not specifically related to a particular issuer, such as real or perceived positive economic conditions or changes in interest or currency rates. Because the market value of ETF shares may differ from their net asset value, the shares may trade at a premium or discount. An investment in the Fund may lose money. New Fund Risk Some of the Funds are new funds. As new funds, there can be no assurance that the Funds will grow to or maintain an economically viable size, in which case the Funds may experience greater tracking error to their Underlying Index than it otherwise would be at higher asset levels or it could ultimately liquidate. 12. Subsequent Events The Funds have adopted authoritative standards of accounting for disclosure of events that occur after the Statements of Assets and Liabilities date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. These standards require the Fund to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all recognized subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of Statement. 184

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal controls over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2015, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Accuvest Global Long Short ETF, Athena High Dividend ETF, EquityPro ETF, Global Echo ETF, Madrona Domestic ETF, Madrona Global Bond ETF, Madrona International ETF, Meidell Tactical Advantage ETF, Morgan Creek Global Tactical ETF, Newfleet MultiSector Income ETF, Pacific Asset Enhanced Floating Rate ETF, Peritus High Yield ETF, Pring Turner Business Cycle ETF, QAM Equity Hedge ETF, Ranger Equity Bear ETF, Sage Core Reserves ETF, STAR Global Buy-Write ETF, Sunrise Global Multi-Strategy ETF, TrimTabs Float Shrink ETF, WCM/BNY Mellon Focused Growth ADR ETF, and YieldPro ETF, as of June 30, 2015, and the results of their operations, their cash flows (for Accuvest Global Long Short ETF, QAM Equity Hedge ETF, and Ranger Equity Bear ETF), the changes in their net assets and their financial highlights for the periods indicated thereon, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Co., on behalf of the AdvisorShares Sage Core Reserves ETF (collectively, the ‘‘Sub-Advisors’’), pursuant to which the Sub-Advisors perform portfolio management and related services for the Funds, and (b) the investment advisory agreement (together with the Sub-Advisory Agreements, the ‘‘Advisory Agreements’’) between the Advisor and the Trust, on behalf of each series of the Trust (each a ‘‘Fund’’ and collectively, the ‘‘Funds’’). Pursuant to Section 15 of the 1940 Act, to continue after their initial two-year term, the Advisory Agreements must be approved annually: (i) by the vote of the Board or by a vote of the shareholders of the Funds and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. Each year, the Board calls and holds meetings to decide whether to renew the Advisory Agreements for an additional one-year term. In preparation for the meetings, the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of information from the Advisor and Sub-Advisors. The Board uses this information, as well as other information that the Advisor, Sub-Advisors and other service providers may submit to the Board, to help decide whether to renew the Advisory Agreements for an additional year. Prior to the meetings, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, reviewed written materials from the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor regarding, among other things: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor; (ii) the investment performance of each Fund; (iii) the costs of the services provided and profits and other benefits realized by the Advisor, each Sub-Advisor, and their affiliates from the relationship with each Fund; (iv) the personnel and operations of each Sub-Advisor; (v) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each Fund grows; and (vi) whether fee levels reflect the sharing of these economies of scale for the benefit of each Fund’s shareholders, as discussed in further detail below. At the meetings, the Board was presented with additional information to help it evaluate the Advisor’s and each Sub-Advisor’s fee and other aspects of the Advisory Agreements. The Board received an overview of the Advisor’s and Sub-Advisor’s operations and management of the Funds, including comparative fee data and profitability analysis for each Fund, and was also provided with information with respect to compliance oversight. The Board reviewed the management of each Fund, including the Fund’s strategy, the focus in the markets, the Fund’s positioning in the market, and its attractive and unique offering. The Board reviewed the Advisor’s and each Sub-Advisor’s overall business generally, including any noteworthy personnel changes. The Board deliberated on the renewal of the Advisory Agreements in light of the written materials that it received before the meetings, information it received at the meetings, and information it had received at prior board meetings. In its 190 

195) Board Review of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Continued) deliberations, the Board considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the selection of the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor and the renewal of each Advisory Agreement. The Board did not identify any single piece of information discussed below that was all-important, controlling or determinative of its decision. Nature, Extent and Quality of Services In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor, the Board reviewed the portfolio management services provided to the Funds. The Board also noted the extensive responsibilities that the Advisor has as investment adviser to the Funds, including the selection of the Funds’ sub-advisers and oversight of the sub-advisers’ compliance with Fund policies and objectives, oversight of general Fund compliance with federal laws, and the implementation of Board directives as they relate to the Funds. The most recent Form ADV for the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor also was provided to the Board, as were the responses of the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor to a detailed series of questions that requested, among other things, information about the background and experience of the portfolio managers primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds. The Board also considered the Advisor’s and each Sub-Advisor’s overall quality of personnel, operations, and financial condition, its investment advisory capabilities, and information concerning the Advisor’s and each Sub-Advisor’s compliance function, operational capabilities, and portfolio management team. Based on the factors above, as well as those discussed below, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor. Performance of the Funds The Board was provided with information regarding each Fund’s performance for various periods, as well as comparative performance information. The Advisor and each Sub-Advisor provided information regarding factors impacting the performance of the Funds, outlining current market conditions, and explaining its expectations and strategies for the future. In particular, a representative from Accuvest Global Advisors addressed the performance of the AdvisorShares Accuvest Global Long Short ETF and discussed strategies to improve its performance. Based on the information provided by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor, the Board concluded that generally it was satisfied with the investment results that the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor had been able to achieve for its respective Fund. Cost of Advisory Services, Profitability, and Economies of Scale In concluding that the advisory and sub-advisory fees payable with respect to each Fund were reasonable, the Board reviewed the advisory fees paid by each Fund to the Advisor, the sub-advisory fees paid by the Advisor to each Sub-Advisor, the fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor over the period, the costs and other expenses incurred by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor in providing advisory services, and the profitability analysis with respect to each Fund. The Board also reviewed information comparing the advisory fees paid by each Fund to those paid by comparable funds. The Board concluded for each Fund that the advisory fees appeared reasonable in light of the services rendered. In addition, the Board considered for each Fund whether economies of scale were realized during the current contract period and concluded that no significant economies of scale had yet been achieved. 191 

196) Board Review of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Continued) Conclusion Based on the Board’s deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, unanimously: (i) concluded that the terms of each Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable; (ii) concluded that the Advisor’s fees are reasonable in light of the services that it provides to the Funds; (iii) concluded that each Sub-Advisor’s fees are reasonable in light of the services that it provides to its respective Fund; and (iv) agreed to renew each Advisory Agreement for another year. Approval of New and Interim Sub-Advisory Agreements for AdvisorShares TrimTabs Float Shrink ETF On May 31, 2015, TrimTabs Asset Management, LLC (‘‘TrimTabs’’) concluded a transaction with Silk Partners, L.P., an affiliate of Siget NY Partners, LP, a Family Office of Simon Glick and Seymour Pluchenik, pursuant to which a wholly-owned subsidiary of Silk Partners, L.P. acquired a controlling interest in TrimTabs (the ‘‘Transaction’’). The Transaction caused a change of control of TrimTabs under the 1940 Act, resulting in the assignment and automatic termination of the investment sub-advisory agreement dated May 9, 2011 between the Advisor and TrimTabs with respect to the AdvisorShares TrimTabs Float Shrink ETF (the ‘‘Fund’’) (the ‘‘Prior Sub-Advisory Agreement’’). In anticipation of the Transaction, at a meeting of the Board held on May 27, 2015, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered the approval of a new sub-advisory agreement between the Advisor and TrimTabs (the ‘‘New Sub-Advisory Agreement’’), on behalf of the Fund, noting that it had considered and approved the annual renewal of the Prior Sub-Advisory Agreement at its February 23, 2015 meeting. The Board also considered and approved an interim sub-advisory agreement that became effective at the termination of the Prior Sub-Advisory Agreement and is intended to continue in effect until the New Sub-Advisory Agreement is approved by shareholders of the Fund. With respect to the Board’s consideration and approval, references below to the New Sub-Advisory Agreement also refer to the interim sub-advisory agreement. At the meetings, the Board reviewed and discussed information and analysis provided by TrimTabs and the Advisor. At the May meeting, the Board also reviewed and discussed information provided by Silk Partners, L.P. regarding the Transaction. All of this information formed the primary, but not exclusive, basis for the Board’s determination. Below is a summary of the factors considered by the Board and the conclusions that formed the basis for the Board’s approval. The Board did not identify any single piece of information discussed below that was all-important, controlling or determinative of its decision. Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services to be Provided In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by TrimTabs, the Board reviewed the portfolio management services provided to the Fund. The most recent Form ADV for TrimTabs also was provided to the Board, as were the TrimTabs’ responses to a detailed series of questions that requested, among other things, information about the background and experience of the portfolio managers primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Board also considered TrimTabs’ overall quality of personnel, operations, and financial condition, its investment advisory capabilities, and information concerning its compliance function, operational capabilities, and portfolio management team. The Board noted that TrimTabs generally does not expect any change in its resources or capabilities as a result of the Transaction except that it expects to have additional financial resources available to it in the future. Based on the factors above, as well as those discussed below, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by TrimTabs. 192 

197) Board Review of Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Continued) Performance The Board was provided information regarding the Fund’s performance. Information also was provided regarding factors impacting the performance of the Fund, outlining current market conditions, and explaining its expectations and strategies for the future. Based on this information, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the investment results that TrimTabs has been able to achieve for the Fund. Cost of Services, Profitability, and Economies of Scale In concluding that the sub-advisory fee payable with respect to the Fund was reasonable, the Board reviewed the sub-advisory fee paid by the Advisor to TrimTabs, the fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed by TrimTabs over the period, the costs and other expenses incurred by TrimTabs in providing advisory services, and the profitability analysis with respect to the Fund. The Board also reviewed information comparing the advisory fees paid by the Fund to those paid by comparable funds. The Board noted that the proposed fee under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement is the same as the fee under the Prior Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board concluded that the fee appeared reasonable in light of the services rendered. In addition, the Board considered whether economies of scale were realized during the period of the Prior Sub-Advisory Agreement and concluded that no significant economies of scale had yet been achieved. Conclusion Based on its deliberations and evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the terms of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, including the fee, are fair and reasonable in light of the services that TrimTabs provides to the Fund. For these reasons, the Board unanimously approved the New Sub-Advisory Agreement. 193
