Investing
involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Futures prices may be very volatile. The small margin required for futures
contracts magnifies the effect of market volatility and allows the loss from a contract potentially to exceed the Fund’s initial
investment. The potential loss from a short sale is theoretically unlimited since the appreciation of the underlying asset also
is theoretically unlimited. Small- and mid-sized company securities tend to be less liquid and more volatile than those of large
companies. Bond prices generally fall when interest rates rise. High-yield bonds have higher default rates. Prices of commodities
and related contracts may be very volatile for a variety of reasons and may be difficult to liquidate in volatile markets.

361
Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund

 

U.S.
equities were negative in the trailing year as the MSCI USA Index returned -16.86%.

 

It
was a challenging year for investors. After an incredible post-COVID recovery in the financial markets that were greatly assisted
by central bank interventions, global growth met its match as supply chain challenges and Russia’s war in Ukraine sent inflation
soaring. As the U.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks aggressively tightened their interest rates to try and cool price
increases, most all publicly traded asset prices fell leading to one of the worst fixed income and equity markets on record. Due
to the lagged impact of rate hikes on their respective economies, central bankers are beginning to attempt to reduce their monetary
pressures enough to slow inflationary pressures while not also causing a significant recession. As it stands today, most prices
indexes are in retreat which is good news, but the strength in the U.S. economy and labor market continues which makes it difficult
for the Fed to put a lid on inflationary pressures.

 

While
the markets were negative, it proved to be a strong relative market environment for long/short equity strategies, as the Morningstar
Long/Short Equity category average return was down 7.11% for the one-year period ending October 31, 2022. The relatively favorable
market conditions for long/short strategies extended to the performance of the 361 Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund. Buoyed by
its short position to high-risk stocks the fund outperformed the category and returned a positive 4.23% (Class I) for the fiscal
year ended on October 31, 2022.

 

Relative
to the MSCI USA Index, a top contributor for the Fund was its net exposure of about 70% due to its long/short equity strategy.
When equity markets perform strongly, this relatively static positioning will likely hinder performance, and over the trailing
12 months added about 5.74% relative to the MSCI USA Benchmark. Beta tilts also were additive adding approximately 8.87% with
the large boost in performance coming from being short high beta. Our Alpha model (factor positioning) also added over the period
by about 1.99% and strong stock selections within the bucket outperformed being helped most by our shorts tying back to an overall
theme of a risk off environment. Finally, from a sector perspective the net positioning was also positive with the top contributors
being our underweight in consumer discretionary and utilities.

 

As
of 10/31/2022, the 361 Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund, Class I, returned 4.23% for the one-year period, 6.62% for the three-year
period, 5.42% for the five-year period and 5.69% since the Fund’s inception on 3/31/2016.

FUND PERFORMANCE at October 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

 

 

 

This
graph compares a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund’s Class I shares, made at its inception, with a similar investment
in the MSCI USA Index. The performance graph above is shown for the Fund’s Class I shares; Investor Class shares performance
may vary. Results include the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains.

 

The
MSCI USA Index is designed to measure the performance of the large and mid-cap segments of the US market. With 624 constituents,
the index covers approximately 85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization in the US. This index does not reflect expenses,

Gross
and net expense ratios for the Investor Class shares were 4.80% and 2.97%, respectively, and for Class I shares were 4.49% and
2.66%, respectively, which were the amounts stated in the current prospectus dated March 1, 2022. For the Fund’s current
one-year expense ratios, please refer to the Financial Highlights section of this report. The Fund’s Advisor has contractually
agreed to waive its fees and/or pay for operating expenses to ensure that total annual fund operating expenses do not exceed 1.39%
of the average daily net assets of the Fund. This agreement is in effect until March 31, 2023, and it may be terminated before
that date only by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. In the absence of such waivers, the Fund’s returns would be lower.

 

Returns
reflect the reinvestment of distributions made by the Fund, if any. The graph and performance table above do not reflect the deduction

Global Long/Short Equity Fund

FUND PERFORMANCE at October 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

 

 

 

The
Analytic Global Long/Short Equity Fund, L.P. (the “Predecessor Account”) was a limited partnership that commenced
operations on January 6, 2014 and reorganized into the Fund on December 12, 2014. The Fund’s objectives, policies, guidelines
and restrictions are, in all material respects, equivalent to those of the Predecessor Account. Performance shown prior to December
12, 2014 is that of the Predecessor Account and has not been adjusted to reflect the expenses of the Fund’s applicable Share Class,
which are lower than the expenses of the Predecessor Account. If the applicable Share Class expenses were reflected, the Predecessor
Account returns would be higher than those shown. However, the Predecessor Account was not registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 and therefore was not subject to certain restrictions on regulated investment companies. If the Predecessor Account
had been registered, its performance may have been lower.

 

This
graph compares a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund’s Class I shares on January 6, 2014, Predecessor Account’s
inception date, with a similar investment in the MSCI World Index. The performance graph above is shown for the Fund’s Class
I shares; Investor Class shares and Class Y shares performance may vary. Results include the reinvestment of all dividends and
capital gains.

 

The
MSCI World Index represents large and mid-cap equity performance across 23 developed markets countries, covering approximately
85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization in each.  This index does not reflect expenses, fees or sales charge,
which would lower performance. The index is unmanaged, and it is not available for investment.

NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

October

Note
1 – Organization

361
Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund (“Domestic Long/Short Equity” or “Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund”) and
361 Global Long/Short Equity Fund (“Global Long/Short Equity” or “Global Long/Short Equity Fund”) (each
a “Fund” and collectively the ‘‘Funds’’) are organized as a series of Investment Managers
Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”) which is registered as an open-end management investment company
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund and Global
Long/Short Equity Fund are diversified Funds.

 

The
Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund’s primary investment objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation. As a secondary
objective, the Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund also seeks to preserve capital in down markets. The Fund commenced investment operations
on March 31, 2016, with three classes of shares, Investor Class, Class I and Class Y. The Fund’s Class Y shares are not
currently available for purchase.

 

The
Global Long/Short Equity Fund’s primary investment objective is to seek to achieve long-term capital appreciation. As a
secondary objective, the Global Long/Short Equity Fund also seeks to preserve capital in down markets. The Fund commenced investment
operations on December 12, 2014, with three classes of shares, Investor Class, Class I and Class Y.

 

The
shares of each class represent an interest in the same portfolio of investments of the Fund and have equal rights as to voting,
redemptions, dividends and liquidation, subject to the approval of the Trustees. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable
to a specific class) and realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares in proportion
to their relative net assets. Shareholders of a class that bears distribution and service expenses under the terms of a distribution
plan have exclusive voting rights to that distribution plan.

 

Each
Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services—Investment Companies.”

 

Note
2 – Accounting Policies

The
following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial
statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

(a)
Valuation of Investments

Each
Fund values equity securities at the last reported sale price on the principal exchange or in the principal over the counter (“OTC”)
market in which such securities are traded, as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on the day the securities are being
valued or, if the last-quoted sales price is not readily available, the securities will be valued at the last bid or the mean
between the last available bid and ask price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price
(“NOCP”). Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at the daily closing net asset value of the respective
investment company. Debt securities are valued by utilizing a price supplied by independent pricing service providers. The independent
pricing service providers may use various valuation methodologies including matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models
as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. These models generally consider such factors as yields or prices of bonds
of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity, ratings and general market conditions. If a price is not readily available
for a portfolio security, the security will be valued at fair value (the amount which the Funds might reasonably expect to receive
for the security upon its current sale). The Board of Trustees has designated the Advisor as the Funds’ valuation designee
(the “Valuation Designee”) to make all fair value determinations with respect to the Funds’ portfolio investments,
subject to the Board’s oversight. As the Valuation Designee, the Advisor has adopted and implemented policies and procedures
to be followed when the Funds must utilize fair value pricing. Prior to September 8, 2022, securities valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by the Funds’ advisor, subject to review and approval by the Valuation Committee, pursuant to procedures
adopted by the Board of Trustees. The actions of the Valuation Committee were subsequently reviewed by the Board at its next regularly
scheduled board meeting. The Valuation Committee met as needed. The Valuation Committee was comprised of all the Trustees, but
action may had been taken by any one of the Trustees.

Foreign
securities traded in countries outside the U.S. are fair valued by utilizing the quotations of an independent pricing service.
The pricing service uses statistical analyses and quantitative models to adjust local prices using factors such as subsequent
movement and changes in the prices of indexes, securities and exchange rates in other markets in determining fair value as of
the time the Fund calculates the NAVs. The Board reviews the independent third party fair valuation analysis report quarterly.

 

(b)
Options

The
Funds may write or purchase options contracts primarily to enhance the Funds’ returns or reduce volatility. In addition,
the Funds may utilize options in an attempt to generate gains from option premiums or to reduce overall portfolio risk. When a
Fund writes or purchases an option, an amount equal to the premium received or paid by a Fund is recorded as a liability or an
asset and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written or purchased. Premiums received or paid from
writing or purchasing options which expire unexercised are treated by a Fund on the expiration date as realized gains or losses.
The difference between the premium and the amount paid or received on effecting a closing purchase or sale transaction, including
brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain or loss. If an option is exercised, the premium paid or received is
added to the cost of the purchase or proceeds from the sale in determining whether a Fund has realized a gain or a loss on investment
transactions. A Fund, as a writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities may be sold (call)
or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the
written option.

 

(c)
Stock Index Futures

The
Funds may invest in stock index futures as a substitute for a comparable market position in the underlying securities. A stock
index future obligates the seller to deliver (and the purchaser to accept), effectively, an amount of cash equal to a specific
dollar amount times the difference between the value of a specific stock index at the close of the last trading day of the contract
and the price at which the agreement is made. No physical delivery of the underlying stocks in the index is made. Initial margin
deposits required upon entering into futures contracts are satisfied by the segregation of specific securities or cash as collateral
for the account of the broker (the Funds’ agent in acquiring the futures position). During the period the futures contracts
are open, changes in the value of the contracts are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by “marking to market”
on a daily basis to reflect the market value of the contracts at the end of each day’s trading. Variation margin payments
are received or made depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. When the contracts are closed, a Fund recognizes
a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from, or cost of, the closing transaction and a Fund’s
basis in the contract. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that a change in the value of the contract
may not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying instruments. The purchase of a futures contract involves the
risk that a Fund could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate the futures transaction. There is minimal
counterparty credit risk involved in entering into futures contracts since they are exchange-traded instruments and the exchange’s
clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

 

(d)
Short Sales

Short
sales are transactions under which the Funds sell a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the value of that
security. To complete such a transaction, the Funds must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. The Funds then are
obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing the security at market price at the time of replacement. The price at
such time may be more or less than the price at which the security was sold by the Funds. When a security is sold short a decrease
in the value of the security will be recognized as a gain and an increase in the value of the security will be recognized as a
loss, which is potentially limitless. Until the security is replaced, the Funds are required to pay the lender amounts equal to
dividend or interest that accrue during the period of the loan which is recorded as an expense. To borrow the security, the Funds
also may be required to pay a premium or an interest fee, which are recorded as interest expense. Cash or securities are segregated
for the broker to meet the necessary margin requirements. The Funds are subject to the risk that it may not always be able to
close out a short position at a particular time or at an acceptable price.

(e)
Investment Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses

Investment
transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments are determined on the identified cost
basis. Dividend income is recorded net of applicable withholding taxes on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded
on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, if applicable, are paid (a portion of which may be reclaimable) or
provided for in accordance with the applicable country’s tax rules and rates and are disclosed in the Statements of Operations.
Withholding tax reclaims are filed in certain countries to recover a portion of the amounts previously withheld. The Funds record
a reclaim receivable based on a number of factors, including a jurisdiction’s legal obligation to pay reclaims as well as
payment history and market convention. Discounts on debt securities are accreted or amortized to interest income over the lives
of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Premiums for callable debt securities are amortized to the earliest
call date, if the call price was less than the purchase price. If the call price was not at par and the security was not called,
the security is amortized to the next call price and date. Income and expenses of the Fund are allocated on a pro rata basis to
each class of shares relative net assets, except for distribution and service fees, which are unique to each class of shares.
Expenses incurred by the Trust with respect to more than one fund are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each fund except
where allocation of direct expenses to each fund or an alternative allocation method can be more appropriately made.

 

In
conjunction with the use of short sales, written options contracts or futures contracts, the Funds may be required to maintain
collateral in various forms. At October 31, 2022, such collateral is denoted in the Funds’ Schedule of Investments and Statements
of Assets and Liabilities. Also in conjunction with the use of short sales, written options contracts or futures contracts, the
Funds, when appropriate, utilize a segregated margin deposit account with the counterparty. At October 31, 2022, these segregated
margin deposit accounts are denoted in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

(f)
Federal Income Taxes

The
Funds intend to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies
and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no
provision is made for federal income or excise taxes. Due to the timing of dividend distributions and the differences in accounting
for income and realized gains and losses for financial statement and federal income tax purposes, the fiscal year in which amounts
are distributed may differ from the year in which the income and realized gains and losses are recorded by the Funds.

 

Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
(the “Income Tax Statement”) requires an evaluation of tax positions taken (or
expected to be taken) in the course of preparing a Funds’ tax returns to determine whether these positions meet a “more-likely-than-not”
standard that, based on the technical merits, have a more than fifty percent likelihood of being sustained by a taxing authority
upon examination. A tax position that meets the “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold is measured to determine
the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to
unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations.

 

The
Income Tax Statement requires management of the Funds to analyze tax positions taken in the prior three open tax years, if any,
and tax positions expected to be taken in the Funds’ current tax year, as defined by the IRS statute of limitations for
all major jurisdictions, including federal tax authorities and certain state tax authorities. As of and during the open tax years
ended October 31, 2019 through 2022, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds have no examination
in progress and are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized
tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

 

(g)
Distributions to Shareholders

The
Funds will make distributions of net investment income and net capital gains, if any, at least annually. Distributions to shareholders
are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income
tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

 

The
character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from the characterization
for federal income tax purposes due to differences in the recognition of income, expense and gain (loss) items for financial statement
and tax purposes.

 

(h)
Illiquid Securities

Pursuant
to Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act,
the
Funds have adopted a Liquidity Risk Management Program (“LRMP”) that requires, among
other things,
that the Funds limit their illiquid investments that are assets to no more than
15% of net assets. An illiquid investment is any security which may not reasonably be expected to be sold or disposed of in current
market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the
investment. If the Advisor, at any time, determines that the value of illiquid securities
held by a Fund exceeds
15% of its net asset value, the Advisor will take such steps as it considers appropriate to reduce them as soon as reasonably
practicable in accordance with the
Funds’ written LRMP.

in accordance with Form N-1A), professional fees related to services for the collection of foreign tax reclaims, expenses incurred
in connection with any merger or reorganization and extraordinary expenses such as litigation expenses), Rule 12b-1 fees and shareholder
service fees) in order to limit total annual operating expenses of each fund set forth in table below. This agreement is in effect
until March 31, 2023 for the Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund and Global Long/Short Equity Fund and it may be terminated before
that date only by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. The table below contains the investment advisory fees and the expense cap by

Funds

NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – Continued

Under
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments.
These inputs are summarized into three broad Levels as described below:

 

Level
1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
that the Fund 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 relevant observable
inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s 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.

 

The
inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of October 31, 2022, in valuing the Funds’ assets carried at fair value:

10 – Market Disruption and Geopolitical Risks

Certain
local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues,
or other events could have a significant impact on a security or instrument. Since 2020, the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19)
has negatively affected the worldwide economy, as well as the economies of individual countries, the financial health of individual
companies and the market in general in significant and unforeseen ways. Following Russia’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine,
the President of the United States signed an Executive Order in February 2022 prohibiting U.S. persons from entering transactions
with the Central Bank of Russia and Executive Orders in March 2022 prohibiting U.S. persons from importing oil and gas from Russia
as well as other popular Russian exports, such as diamonds, seafood and vodka. There may also be restrictions on investments in
Chinese companies. For example, the President of the United States of America signed an Executive Order in June 2021 affirming
and expanding the U.S. policy prohibiting U.S. persons from purchasing or investing in publicly-traded securities of companies
identified by the U.S. Government as “Chinese Military-Industrial Complex Companies.” The list of such companies can
change from time to time, and as a result of forced selling or an inability to participate in an investment the Advisor otherwise
believes is attractive, the Fund may incur losses. The duration of the coronavirus outbreak and the Russian-Ukraine conflict could
adversely affect the Fund’s performance, the performance of the securities in which the Fund invests and may lead to losses
on your investment. The ultimate impact of COVID-19 and Russia Invasion on the financial performance of the Fund’s investments
is not reasonably estimable at this time. Management is actively monitoring these events.

11 – Investments by Other Registered Investment Companies

For
purposes of the 1940 Act, each Fund is treated as a registered investment company. Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act restricts
investments by investment companies in the securities of other investment companies, including shares of the Fund. Rule 12d1-4
of the 1940 Act permits other investment companies to invest in the Fund beyond the limits in Section 12(d)(1), subject to certain
terms and conditions, including that such investment companies enter into an agreement with the Fund.

 

Note
12 – New Accounting Pronouncements

In
December 2020, the SEC adopted a new rule providing a framework for fund valuation practices (“Rule 2a-5”). Rule 2a-5
establishes requirements for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. Rule 2a-5 will permit fund boards
to designate certain parties to perform fair value determinations, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions. Rule
2a-5 also defines when market quotations are “readily available” for purposes of the 1940 Act and the threshold for
determining whether a fund must fair value a security. In connection with Rule 2a-5, the SEC also adopted related recordkeeping
requirements and is rescinding previously issued guidance, including with respect to the role of a board in determining fair value
and the accounting and auditing of fund investments. The Funds have adopted procedures in accordance with Rule 2a-5.

 

In
March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform: Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial
Reporting. The main objective of the new guidance is to provide relief to companies that will be impacted by the expected change
in benchmark interest rates at the end of 2021, when participating banks will no longer be required to submit London Interbank
Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) quotes by the UK Financial Conduct Authority. The new guidance allows companies to, provided
the only change to existing contracts are a change to an approved benchmark interest rate, account for modifications as a continuance
of the existing contract without additional analysis. In addition, derivative contracts that qualified for hedge accounting prior
to modification, will be allowed to continue to receive such treatment, even if critical terms change due to a change in the benchmark
interest rate. For new and existing contracts, the Funds may elect to apply the amendments as of March 12, 2020 through December
31, 2022. Management is currently assessing the impact of the ASU’s adoption to the Funds’ financial statements and
various filings.

 

Note
13– Reorganization Information

On
August 18, 2022, the Board of Trustees of the Trust has approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”)
for each of the Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund and Global Long/Short Equity Fund (each, an “Acquired Fund”, each
a series of the Trust, providing for the reorganization of each Fund into a corresponding newly created series (each, an “Acquiring
Fund”) of Allspring Funds Trust. The reorganization of each Acquired Fund is subject to approval by shareholders.

 

Each
Acquiring Fund will have a substantially similar investment objective, investment strategy and fundamental investment restrictions
as its corresponding Acquired Fund. Following the reorganization, each Acquired Fund’s current investment advisor, Hamilton
Lane Advisors, L.L.C. (the “Advisor”), will be replaced by Allspring Funds Management, LLC (“Allspring”),
which will serve as investment advisor to each Acquiring Fund. Allspring Global Investments, LLC, each Acquired Fund’s current
sub-advisor, will serve as the sub-advisor to each Acquired Fund following the reorganization. Each Acquiring Fund will have the
same portfolio management team as the corresponding Acquired Fund.

The
Plan provides for each Acquired Fund to transfer all of its assets to the corresponding Acquiring Fund in return for shares of
the Acquiring Fund and the Acquiring Fund’s assumption of the Acquired Fund’s liabilities. Shareholders of each Acquired
Fund will become shareholders of the corresponding Acquiring Fund, receiving shares of the Acquiring Fund equal in value to the
shares of the Acquired Fund held by the shareholders prior to the reorganization. The reorganizations are not expected to result
in the recognition of gain or loss by either Acquired Fund or its shareholders for federal tax purposes. Allspring and the Advisor
will bear the costs related to the reorganizations.

 

The
Funds’ shareholders approved the Plan at a meeting held on November 4, 2022. The results of the shareholder meeting are
reported in the Supplement Information pages.

 

Note
14– Events Subsequent to the Fiscal Period End

The
Funds have adopted financial reporting rules regarding subsequent events which require an entity to recognize in the financial
statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of
the balance sheet. Management has evaluated the Funds’ related events and transactions that occurred through the date of
issuance of the Funds’ financial statements.

 

The
Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund declared the payment of a distribution to be paid, on December 12, 2022, to shareholders of record
on December 8, 2022 as follows:

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To
the Board of Trustees of

Investment
Managers Series Trust

and
the Shareholders of the 361 Funds

 

Opinion
on the Financial Statements

 

We
have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the 361 Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund and 361 Global Long/Short
Equity Fund (the “Funds”), each a series of Investment Managers Series Trust, including the schedules of investments,
as of October 31, 2022, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets
for each of the two years in the period then ended, the statements of cash flows for the year then ended, the financial highlights
for the periods indicated thereon, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Funds as of October
31, 2022, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in
the period then ended and their financial highlights for the periods indicated thereon, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis
for Opinion

 

These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance
with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the
PCAOB. We have served as the auditor of one or more of the funds in the Trust since 2007.

 

We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error
or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial
reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but
not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly,
we express no such opinion.

 

Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence
regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

EXPENSE EXAMPLES

For the Six Months Ended
October 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

 

Expense Examples

As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur
two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or
service (12b-1) fees (Investor Class only); and other Fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you understand your
ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual
funds.

 

These examples are based on an investment
of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from May 1, 2022 to October 31, 2022.

 

Actual Expenses

The information in the row titled “Actual
Performance” of the table below provides actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these
columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account
value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate
row for your share class, under the column titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on
your account during this period.

 

Hypothetical Example for Comparison
Purposes

The information in the row titled “Hypothetical
(5% annual return before expenses)” of the table below provides hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based
on the Fund’s actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s
actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses
you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To
do so, compare these 5% hypothetical examples 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 transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads)
or redemption fees. Therefore, the information in the row titled “Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses)”
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.

 

Domestic Long/Short Equity Fund Beginning Account Value Ending Account Value Expenses Paid During Period*
5/1/22 10/31/22 5/1/22 – 10/31/22
Investor Class Actual Performance $1,000.00 $946.20 $10.05
  Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) 1,000.00 1,014.88 10.41
Class I Actual Performance 1,000.00 947.40 8.50
  Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) 1,000.00 1,016.48 8.80

 

* Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense
ratio of 2.05%, and 1.74% for Investor Class and Class I, respectively, multiplied by the average account value over the period,
multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the six month period). The expense ratios reflect an expense waiver. Assumes all dividends and
distributions were reinvested.
