GreenHaven Continuous Commodity Index Fund

GreenHaven Continuous Commodity Index Master Fund

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2015

 

(1) Organization

 

The GreenHaven Continuous Commodity Index Fund (the “Fund” “Fund” may also refer to the Fund and the Master Fund, collectively as the context requires) was formed as a Delaware statutory trust on October 27, 2006, and GreenHaven Continuous Commodity Index Master Fund (the “Master Fund”), was formed as a Delaware statutory trust on October 27, 2006. The Fund offers common units of beneficial interest (the “Shares”). Upon inception of the Fund, 50 General Units of the Fund were issued to GreenHaven Commodity Services, LLC (the “Managing Owner”) in exchange for a capital contribution of $1,500. The Managing Owner serves the Fund as commodity pool operator, commodity trading advisor, and managing owner.

 

The proceeds from the offering of Shares are invested in the Master Fund (See Note 7 for details of the procedures for creation and redemption of Shares in the Fund). The Master Fund actively trades exchange traded futures on the commodities comprising the Thomson Reuters Equal Weight Continuous Commodity Index (the “Index”), with a view to tracking the performance of the Index over time. The Master Fund’s portfolio also includes United States Treasury securities and other high credit-quality, short-term fixed income securities for deposit with the Master Fund’s commodity broker as margin. The Fund wholly owns the Master Fund. The Fund and Master Fund commenced investment operations on January 23, 2008 with the offering of 350,000 Shares in exchange for $10,500,000. The Fund commenced trading on the American Stock Exchange (now known as the NYSE Arca) on January 24, 2008 and, as of November 25, 2008, was listed on the NYSE Arca.

 

The Index is intended to reflect the performance of certain commodities. The commodities comprising the Index (the “Index Commodities”) are: corn, soybeans, soybean oil, wheat, live cattle, lean hogs, gold, silver, copper, cocoa, coffee, sugar, cotton, platinum, crude oil, heating oil, and natural gas.

 

The Managing Owner and the Shareholders share in any profits and losses of the Fund attributable to the Fund in proportion to the percentage interest owned by each.

 

The Managing Owner, the Fund and the Master Fund retain the services of third party service providers to the extent necessary to operate the ongoing operations of the Fund and the Master Fund. (See Note (2)).

 

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The financial statements as of September 30, 2015 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 included herein are unaudited. In the opinion of the Managing Owner, the unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and include all adjustments, which are of the normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the Fund’s financial position, investments, results of operations and its cash flows. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be achieved for the year or for any other interim period or for any future year.

 

(2) Service Providers and Related Party Agreements

 

(a) “The Trustee” – CSC Trust is the trustee for the Fund and Master Fund. CSC Trust is headquartered in Wilmington, DE.

 

(b) “The Managing Owner” – GreenHaven Commodity Services, LLC is the managing owner of the Fund and Master Fund and is responsible for the day to day operations of both entities. The Managing Owner charges the Fund a management fee for its services. GreenHaven Commodity Services, LLC is a Delaware limited liability company with operations in Atlanta, GA.

 

15 

 

 

(c) “The Administrator” — The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation has been appointed by the Managing Owner as the administrator, custodian and transfer agent of the Fund and the Master Fund, and has entered into separate administrative, custodian, transfer agency and service agreements (collectively referred to as the “Administration Agreement”). Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, the Administrator performs or supervises the services necessary for the operation and administration of the Fund and the Master Fund (other than making investment decisions), including receiving calculations of the assets minus the liabilities of the Fund (the “Net Asset Value”), accounting and other fund administrative services. As the Fund’s transfer agent, the Administrator processes additions and redemptions of Shares. These transactions are processed on Depository Trust Company’s (“DTC”) book entry system. The Administrator retains certain financial books and records, including: Basket creation and redemption books and records, fund accounting records, ledgers with respect to assets, liabilities, capital, income and expenses, the registrar, transfer journals and related details and trading and related documents received from futures commission merchants. The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation is based in New York, New York.

 

(d) “The Commodity Broker” — Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS&Co.”) is the Master Fund’s Commodity Broker. In its capacity as the Commodity Broker, it executes and clears each of the Master Fund’s futures transactions and performs certain administrative services for the Master Fund. MS&Co. is based in New York, New York.

 

(e) “The Distributor” — The Managing Owner, on behalf of the Fund and the Master Fund, has appointed ALPS Distributors, Inc., or the Distributor, to assist the Managing Owner and the Administrator with certain functions and duties relating to the creation and redemption of Baskets, including receiving and processing orders from Authorized Participants to create and redeem Baskets, coordinating the processing of such orders and related functions and duties.

The Participant Agreement sets forth the procedures for the creation and redemption of Baskets of Shares and for the delivery of cash required for such creations or redemptions. A list of the current Authorized Participants can be obtained from the Administrator. A similar agreement between the Fund and the Master Fund sets forth the procedures for the creation and redemption of Baskets of Shares by the Fund.

 

(3) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

(a) Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the amounts of reported income and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

(b) Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

No recently promulgated accounting standards are expected to have an effect on the Fund’s financial statements.

 

(c) Cash Held by Broker

 

The Fund defines cash held by broker to be highly liquid investments, with maturities of three months or less when acquired. MS&Co allows the Master Fund to apply its Treasury Bill portfolio towards its initial margin requirement for the Master Fund’s futures positions, hence all cash held by broker is unrestricted cash. The cash and Treasury Bill positions are held in segregated accounts at MS&Co and are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

 

16 

 

 

(d) United States Treasury Obligations

 

The Master Fund records purchases and sales of United States Treasury Obligations on a trade date basis. These holdings are marked to market based on quoted market closing prices. The Master Fund holds United States Treasury Obligations for deposit with the Master Fund’s commodity broker as margin for trading and holding against initial margin of the open futures contracts. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis when earned. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the United States Treasury Obligations.

 

(e) Income Taxes

 

The Fund and Master Fund are classified as a grantor trust and a partnership respectively, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, neither the Fund nor the Master Fund is subject to U.S. federal, state, or local income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal, state, or local income taxes has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as investors are individually liable for income taxes, if any, on their allocable share of the Fund’s share of the Master Fund’s income, gain, loss, deductions and other items.

 

The Fund accounts for uncertainty in income taxes pursuant to the applicable accounting standard, which provides measurement, presentation and disclosure guidance related to uncertain tax positions. The guidance addresses how tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this topic, the Fund may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution.

 

(f) Futures Contracts

 

The Master Fund purchases and holds commodity futures contracts for investment purposes. These contracts are recorded on a trade date basis and open contracts are valued daily at settlement prices provided by the relevant exchanges. In the consolidated statement of financial condition, futures contracts are presented at their published settlement prices on the last business day of the period, in accordance with the fair value accounting standard. Since these contracts are actively traded in markets that are directly observable and which provide readily available price quotes, their market value is deemed to be their fair value under the fair value accounting standard. (See Note 4 — Fair Value Measurements).

 

However, when market closing prices are not available, the Managing Owner may value an asset of the Master Fund pursuant to such other principles as the Managing Owner deems fair and equitable so long as such principles are consistent with the fair value accounting standard. Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open positions are determined on a specific identification basis and recognized in the consolidated statement of income and expenses in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur, respectively.

 

(g) Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

 

All of the capital raised by the Fund is used to purchase common units of beneficial interest of the Master Fund. The financial statement balances of the Master Fund are consolidated with the Fund’s financial statement balances and all significant inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated. Separate financial statements of the Master Fund are presented to comply with SEC reporting requirements as the Master Fund is a separate SEC registrant.

 

(i) Subsequent Events

 

For purposes of disclosure in the financial statements, the Fund has evaluated events occurring between the period ended, September 30, 2015 and when the financial statements were issued.

 

On October 30, 2015, GreenHaven LLC (“GH”), the Managing Owner, and certain other parties entered into a Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with WisdomTree Investments, Inc. (“WTI”). The Managing Owner is a wholly-owned subsidiary of GH and has served as the commodity pool operator and sponsor of the Fund, and has been responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Fund. Pursuant to the Agreement, GH agreed to transfer and sell to WTI all of GH’s interest in the Managing Owner, including the sole and exclusive power to direct the business and affairs of the Fund, as well as certain other assets pertaining to the management of the Fund (the “Transaction”), subject to various terms and conditions. Additionally, in connection with the Transaction, the Managing Owner and the Fund intend to engage GreenHaven Advisors, LLC, a newly-formed Delaware limited liability company (“GH Advisors”)  pursuant to a sub-advisory arrangement to provide advisory services to the Managing Owner and the Fund for a period of time, in exchange for certain management fees.

 

During that period, 200,000 Limited Shares were created and 100,000 Limited Shares were redeemed resulting in 12,450,000 Limited Shares outstanding.

Other than these events, the evaluation did not result in any subsequent events that necessitated disclosures and/or adjustments.

 

(4) Fair Value Measurements

 

The existing guidance for fair value measurements establishes the authoritative definition for fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and outlines the required disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Fund uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy based upon observable and unobservable inputs as follows:

 

Level 1 —  quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date.
   
Level 2 —  inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
   
Level 3 —  unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The assets of the Fund are either exchange-traded securities or government securities that are valued using dealer and broker quotations or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. A summary of the Fund’s assets and liabilities at fair value as of September 30, 2015, classified according to the levels used to value them, is as follows:

(6) Financial Instrument Risk

 

In the normal course of its business, the Fund may be party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. The term “off-balance sheet risk” refers to an unrecorded potential liability that, even though it does not appear on the balance sheet, may result in a future obligation or loss. The financial instruments used by the Fund are commodity futures, whose values are based upon an underlying asset and generally represent future commitments which have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash or through physical delivery. These instruments are traded on an exchange and are standardized contracts.

 

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Fund due to market changes, including fluctuations in commodity prices. In entering into these contracts, there exists a market risk that such contracts may be significantly influenced by conditions, resulting in such contracts being less valuable. If the markets should move against all of the futures interest positions at the same time, and the Managing Owner was unable to offset such positions, the Fund could experience substantial losses.

 

Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of an exchange clearinghouse to perform according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments is reduced to the extent that an exchange or clearing organization acts as counterparty to the transactions. The Fund’s risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the statement of assets and liabilities and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments.

 

The Fund and the Master Fund have not utilized, nor do they expect to utilize in the future, special purpose entities to facilitate off-balance sheet financing arrangements and have no loan guarantee arrangements or off-balance sheet arrangements of any kind other than agreements entered into in the normal course of business.

 

(7) Creation and Redemption of Shares from the Fund

 

As described in the Fund’s Prospectus, the creation and redemption procedures allow only Authorized Participants to create and redeem Shares directly from the Fund. Proceeds from sales of shares of the Fund are invested directly in the Master Fund. Retail investors seeking to purchase or sell Shares on any day are expected to effect such transactions in the secondary market, on the NYSE-Arca, at the market price per Share, rather than in connection with the creation or redemption of Baskets.

 

19 

 

 

(a)Creation of Shares

 

The Fund will issue Shares in baskets of 50,000 Shares (“Baskets”) only to Authorized Participants continuously as of noon, New York time, on the business day immediately following the date on which a valid order to create a Basket is accepted by the Fund. The Baskets will be valued as of the closing time of the NYSE Arca or the last to close of the exchanges on which the Index Commodities are traded, whichever is later, on the date that a valid order to create a Basket is accepted by the Fund.

 

The total payment required to create each Basket is the value of the Fund’s Net Asset Value per Share for 50,000 Shares as of the closing time of NYSE Arca or the last to close of the exchanges on which the Index Commodities are traded, whichever is later, on the purchase order date. Baskets will be issued as of 12:00 p.m., New York time, on the Business Day immediately following the creation order date at Net Asset Value per Share as of the closing time of NYSE Arca or the last to close of the exchanges on which the Index Commodities are traded, whichever is later, on the purchase order date during the continuous offering period, but only if the required payment has been timely received.

 

Because orders to create Baskets must be placed by 10:00 a.m., New York time, but the total payment required to create a Basket during the continuous offering period will not be determined until 4:00 p.m., New York time, on the date the creation order is received, Authorized Participants will not know the total amount of the payment required to create a Basket at the time they submit an irrevocable purchase order for the Basket. The Fund’s Net Asset Value and the total amount of the payment required to create a Basket could rise or fall substantially between the time an irrevocable creation order is submitted and the time the amount of the creation price in respect thereof is determined.

 

On any business day, an Authorized Participant may place an order with the Distributor to create one or more Baskets. Creation orders must be placed by 10:00 a.m., New York time. The day on which the Distributor receives a valid creation order is the creation order date.

 

The Administrator may reject a creation order if:

 

(i)it determines that the creation order is not in proper form;

 

(ii)the Managing Owner believes that the creation order would have adverse tax consequences to the Fund or its Shareholders; or

 

(iii)circumstances outside the control of the Managing Owner or the Distributor make it, for all practical purposes, not feasible to process creations of Baskets.

 

The Distributor and the Managing Owner will not be liable for the rejection of any creation order.

 

(b) Redemption of Shares

 

The procedures by which an Authorized Participant can redeem one or more Baskets mirror the procedures for the creation of Baskets. On any business day, an Authorized Participant may place an order with the Distributor to redeem one or more Baskets. Redemption orders must be placed by 10:00 a.m., New York time. The day on which the Distributor receives a valid redemption order is the redemption order date.

 

By placing a redemption order, an Authorized Participant agrees to deliver the Baskets to be redeemed through DTC’s book-entry system to the Fund not later than noon, New York time, on the business day immediately following the redemption order date. By placing a redemption order, and prior to receipt of the redemption distribution, an Authorized Participant’s DTC account will be charged the non-refundable transaction fee due for the redemption order.

 

The redemption distribution from the Fund consists of the cash redemption amount. The cash redemption amount is equal to the Net Asset Value of the number of Basket(s) requested in the Authorized Participant’s redemption order as of the closing time of the NYSE Arca or the last to close of the exchanges on which the Index Commodities are traded, whichever is later, on the redemption order date. The Fund will distribute the cash redemption amount at noon, New York time, on the business day immediately following the redemption order date through DTC to the account of the Authorized Participant as recorded on DTC’s book entry system.

 

20 

 

 

The redemption distribution due from the Fund is delivered to the Authorized Participant at noon, New York time, on the business day immediately following the redemption order date if, by such time on such business day immediately following the redemption order date, the Fund’s DTC account has been credited with the Baskets to be redeemed. If the Fund’s DTC account has not been credited with all of the Baskets to be redeemed by such time, the redemption distribution is delivered to the extent of whole Baskets received. Any remainder of the redemption distribution is delivered on the next business day to the extent of remaining whole Baskets received if the Administrator receives the fee applicable to the extension of the redemption distribution date which the Managing Owner may, from time to time, determine and the remaining Baskets to be redeemed are credited to the Fund’s DTC account by noon, New York time, on such next business day. Any further outstanding amount of the redemption order shall be canceled. The Administrator is also authorized to deliver the redemption distribution notwithstanding that the Baskets to be redeemed are not credited to the Fund’s DTC account by noon, New York time, on the business day immediately following the redemption order date if the Authorized Participant has collateralized its obligation to deliver the Baskets through DTC’s book entry system on such terms as the Administrator and the Managing Owner may from time to time agree upon.

 

The Distributor may, in its discretion, and will when directed by the Managing Owner, suspend the right of redemption or postpone the redemption settlement date, (1) for any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which the redemption distribution is not reasonably practicable, or (2) for such other period as the Managing Owner determines to be necessary for the protection of the Shareholders. In addition, the Distributor will reject a redemption order if the order is not in proper form as described in the Participant Agreement or if the fulfillment of the order, in the opinion of its counsel, might be unlawful. Any such postponement, suspension or rejection could adversely affect a redeeming Authorized Participant. For example, the resulting delay may adversely affect the value of the Authorized Participant’s redemption proceeds if the net asset value of the Fund declines during the period of the delay. Under the Distribution Services Agreement, the Managing Owner and the Distributor may disclaim any liability for any loss or damage that may result from any such suspension or postponement.

 

(8) Operating Expenses, Organizational and Offering Costs

 

(a) Management Fee

 

The Fund pays the Managing Owner a management fee (the “Management Fee”) monthly in arrears, in an amount equal to 0.85% per annum of the net asset value of the Master Fund. The Management Fee is paid in consideration of the use of the license for the Thomson Reuters Equal Weight Continuous Commodity Index held by GreenHaven, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company formed in August 2005, and its subsidiary GreenHaven Commodity Services, LLC, as well as for commodity futures trading advisory services. The management fees incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $536,536 and $739,176, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $1,608,998 and $2,184,858, respectively. The Management Fees were charged to the Fund and paid to the Managing Owner.

 

(b) Organization and Offering Expenses

 

Expenses incurred in connection with organizing the Fund and the offering of the Shares were paid by GreenHaven, LLC. GreenHaven, LLC is the sole member of the Managing Owner. The Fund does not have an obligation to reimburse GreenHaven, LLC or its affiliates for organization and offering expenses paid on their behalf.

 

(c) Brokerage Commissions, Fees, and Routine Operational, Administrative, and Other Ordinary Expenses

 

The Managing Owner currently does not expect brokerage commissions and fees as well as routine operational, administrative and other ordinary expenses for which the Fund is responsible, including, but not limited to, the fees and expenses of the Trustee, legal and accounting fees and expenses, tax preparation expenses, filing fees, and printing, mailing and duplication costs, to exceed 0.20% of the net asset value of the Master Fund in any year, although the actual amount of such fees and expenses in any year may be greater. The Fund’s brokerage commissions and fees and routine operational, administrative and other ordinary expenses are accrued at a rate of 0.20% per annum in the aggregate. Of the amounts so accrued, the Fund first pays brokerage fees, and secondly from the remainder of the amounts so accrued, reimburses the Managing Owner for the Fund’s routine operational, administrative, and other ordinary expenses paid by the Managing Owner.

 

21 

 

 

Brokerage commissions and fees are charged against the Fund’s assets on a per transaction basis. The brokerage commissions, trading fees and routine operational, administrative, and other ordinary expenses incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $126,244 and $173,923, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $378,588 and $514,084, respectively

 

(d) Unusual Fees and Expenses

 

The Fund will pay all its unusual fees and expenses, if any. Such unusual fees and expenses, by their nature, are unpredictable in terms of timing and amount. There have been no unusual fees or expenses since the Fund commenced investment operations on January 23, 2008.

 

(9) Termination

 

The term of the Fund is perpetual, unless terminated earlier in certain circumstances as defined in the Trust Agreement.

 

(10) Profit and Loss Allocations and Distributions

 

The Managing Owner and the Shareholders share in any profits and losses of the Fund attributable to the Fund in proportion to the percentage interest owned by each. Distributions may be made at the sole discretion of the Managing Owner on a pro-rata basis in accordance with the respective capital balances of the Shareholders.

 

(11) Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Managing Owner, either in its own capacity or in its capacity as the Managing Owner and on behalf of the Fund, has entered into various service agreements that contain a variety of representations, or provide indemnification provisions related to certain risks service providers undertake in performing services which are in the best interest of the Fund. As of September 30, 2015, no claims had been received by the Fund and it was therefore not possible to estimate the Fund’s potential future exposure under such indemnification provisions.

 

(12) Net Asset Value and Financial Highlights

 

The Fund is presenting the following net asset value and financial highlights related to investment performance and operations for a Share outstanding for the 3 months and 9 months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. The net investment loss and total expense ratios have been annualized. The total return at net asset value is based on the change in net asset value of the Shares during the period and the total return at market value is based on the change in market value of the Shares on the NYSE Arca during the period. An individual investor’s return and ratios may vary based on the timing of capital transactions.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

Overview / Introduction

The initial offering period for the GreenHaven Continuous Commodity Index Fund (the “Fund”) began and ended on January 23, 2008 during which time 350,000 Shares were sold at $30 per share for total proceeds of $10,500,000. The entire proceeds were received by the Fund which then invested them in the Master Fund. Shares were then listed for trading on the American Stock Exchange on January 24, 2008, marking the beginning of the continuous offering period. On November 24, 2008 the Fund delisted from the American Stock Exchange and on November 25, 2008 the Fund listed on NYSE Arca. The ticker symbol of the Fund is GCC.

 

Performance Summary

There is no performance history prior to the beginning of trading on January 24, 2008. For performance history subsequent to the beginning of trading, see the Results of Operations section below.

 

Net Asset Value

The Administrator calculates a daily Net Asset Value per share of the Fund, based on closing prices of the underlying futures contracts. The first such calculation was as of market close on January 24, 2008, the first day of trading on the NYSE Arca, formerly the American Stock Exchange. Values of the underlying Index are computed by Thomson Reuters America, LLC, and disseminated by NYSE Arca every fifteen (15) seconds during the trading day. Only settlement and last-sale prices are used in the Index’s calculation, bids and offers are not recognized — including limit-bid and limit-offer price quotes. Where no last-sale price exists, typically in the more deferred contract months, the previous days’ settlement price is used. This means that the underlying Index may lag its theoretical value. This tendency to lag is evident at the end of the day when the Index value is based on the settlement prices of the component commodities, and explains why the underlying Index often closes at or near the high or low for the day.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

The Fund’s critical accounting policies are as follows:

 

Preparation of the financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires the application of appropriate accounting rules and guidance, as well as the use of estimates, and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expense and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities during the reporting period of the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Fund’s application of these policies involves judgments and actual results may differ from the estimates used.

 

23 

 

 

The Master Fund holds a significant portion of its assets in futures contracts and United States Treasury Obligations, both of which are recorded on a trade date basis and at fair value in the consolidated financial statements, with changes in fair value reported in the consolidated statement of income and expenses. Generally, fair values are based on quoted market closing prices. However, when market closing prices are not available, the Managing Owner may value an asset of the Master Fund pursuant to policies the Managing Owner has adopted, which are consistent with normal industry standards.

 

The use of fair value to measure financial instruments, with related unrealized gains or losses recognized in earnings in each period, is fundamental to the Fund’s financial statements. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the exit price).

 

The Fund values United States Treasury Obligations using broker and dealer quotations. The Fund values commodity futures contracts using the quotations from the futures exchanges where the futures contracts are traded. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

When market closing prices are not available, the Managing Owner may value an asset of the Master Fund pursuant to policies the Managing Owner has adopted, which are consistent with normal industry standards. Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized gain (loss) on open positions are determined on a specific identification basis and recognized in the consolidated statement of income and expenses in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur, respectively.

 

Liquidity

In October 2013, the government of the United States came close to a deadline after which it could have possibly defaulted on its own debt. A US debt default could cause liquidity problems for the Fund if it was not able to sell its Treasury Bills or forced to sell its Treasury Bills for a loss. The Managing Owner knows of no other trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in the Fund’s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.

 

Capital Resources

The Fund had no commitments for capital expenditures as of September 30, 2015. Currently, the Fund invests only in U.S Treasury bills and in long positions in exchange-traded commodity futures contracts. Therefore, it has no expectation of entering into commitments for capital expenditures at any time in the near future.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

As of September 30, 2015 the Fund had no commitments or contractual obligations other than its long positions in futures contracts as detailed in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments included herein. Typically, those positions require the Fund to deposit initial margin funds with its Commodity Broker in amounts equal to approximately 10% of the notional value of the contracts. Also, the Fund may be required to make additional margin deposits if prices fall for the underlying commodities. Since the Fund is not leveraged, it holds in reserve the shareholder funds not required for margin and invests these in U.S. Treasury bills. These funds are available to meet variation margin calls.

 

In the normal course of its business, the Fund is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. The term “off-balance sheet risk” refers to an unrecorded potential liability that, even though it does not appear on the balance sheet, may result in a future obligation or loss. The financial instruments used by the Fund are commodity futures, whose values are based upon an underlying asset and generally represent future commitments which have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash or through physical delivery. The financial instruments are traded on an exchange and are standardized contracts.

 

The Fund has not utilized, nor does it expect to utilize in the future, special purpose entities to facilitate off-balance sheet financing arrangements and has no loan guarantee arrangements or off-balance sheet arrangements of any kind, The Fund’s contractual obligations are with the Managing Owner and the Commodity Broker. Management Fee payments made to the Managing Owner are calculated as a fixed percentage of the Master Fund’s net asset value. Commission payments to the Commodity Broker are on a contract-by-contract, or round-turn, basis. As such, the Managing Owner cannot anticipate the amount of payments that will be required under these arrangements for future periods as future net asset values are not known until a future date.

The Fund and the Master Fund seek to track changes in the Thomson Reuters Equal Weight Continuous Commodity Index-Total Return, or the “Index”, over time. For the nine-months ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014, the Fund’s Net Asset Value underperformed the Index by 0.70% and 0.75%, respectively.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

Introduction

The Fund aims to track the Thomson Reuters Equal Weight Continuous Commodity Index, which consists of seventeen commodities and is rebalanced daily. Due to the rebalancing, the Fund on a given day holds an equal amount of each of the seventeen index components. Thus, the exposure of the Fund to a given component remains over time very close to 1/17, or 5.88%. Unless the Index Owner (Thomson Reuters) changes the construction of the Index, the Fund will maintain the same allocation to the same commodities. The value of the Shares relates directly to the value of the commodity futures and other assets held by the Master Fund and fluctuations in the price of these assets could materially adversely affect an investment in the Shares. The Shares are designed to reflect, as closely as possible, the performance of the Index through the Master Fund’s portfolio of exchange-traded futures on the Index Commodities. The value of the Shares relate directly to the value of the portfolio, less the liabilities (including estimated accrued but unpaid expenses) of the Fund and the Master Fund. The price of the Index Commodities may fluctuate widely based on many factors. Some of those factors are:

 

Changing supply and demand relationships;

 

General economic activities and conditions;

 

Weather and other environmental conditions;

 

Acts of God;

 

Agricultural, fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs and policies of governments;

 

National and international political and economic events and policies;

 

Changes in rates of inflation; or

 

The general emotions and psychology of the marketplace, which at times can be volatile and unrelated to other more tangible factors.

 

Acts of international or domestic terrorism.

 

In addition to the factors set forth above, each commodity has risks that are inherent in the investment in such commodity.

 

Metals Commodities: Price movements in futures contracts held by the Master Fund in metals commodities such as gold, silver, platinum and copper are affected by many specific factors. Some of these metal specific factors include, but are not limited to:

 

A change in economic conditions, such as a recession, can adversely affect the price of both industrial and precious metals. An economic downturn may have a negative impact on the usage and demand of metals which may result in a loss for the Master Fund.

 

A sudden shift in political conditions of the world’s leading metal producers may have a negative effect on the global pricing of metals.

 

An increase in the hedging of precious metals may result in the price of precious metals to decline.

 

Changes in global supply and demand for industrial and precious metals.

 

The price and quantity of imports and exports of industrial and precious metals.

 

ŸTechnological advances in the processing and mining of industrial and precious metals.

 

·Possible adverse effects on commodity markets from new regulations and required disclosures of public companies regarding “Conflict Minerals”.

 

Agricultural Commodities: Price movements in futures contracts held by the Master Fund in agricultural commodities, such as wheat, corn, soybean oil, cotton, cocoa, sugar, coffee, and soybeans, are affected by many factors. Some of these agricultural specific factors include, but are not limited to:

 

28 

 

 

Farmer planting decisions, general economic, market and regulatory factors.

 

Weather conditions, including hurricanes, tornadoes, storms and droughts, may have a material adverse effect on crops, live cattle, live hogs and lumber, which may result in significant fluctuations in prices in such commodities.

 

Changes in global supply and demand for agricultural products.

 

The price and quantity of imports and exports of agricultural commodities.

 

Political conditions, including embargoes and war, in or affecting agricultural production, imports and exports.

 

Technological advances in agricultural production.

 

The price and availability of alternative agricultural commodities.

 

Energy Commodities: Price movements in futures contracts held by the Master Fund in energy commodities, such as crude oil, heating oil and natural gas, are subject to risks due to frequent and often substantial fluctuations in energy commodity prices. In the past, the prices of natural gas and crude oil have been extremely volatile, and the Managing Owner expects this volatility to continue. The markets and prices for energy commodities are affected by many factors. Some of those factors include, but are not limited to:

 

Changes in global supply and demand for oil and natural gas.

 

The price and quantity of imports and exports of oil and natural gas.

 

Political conditions, including embargoes and war, in or affecting other oil producing activities.

 

The level of global oil and natural gas exploration and production.

 

The level of global oil and natural gas inventories, production or pricing.

 

Weather conditions.

 

Technological advances affecting energy consumption.

 

The price and availability of alternative fuels.

 

None of these factors can be controlled by the Managing Owner. Even if current and correct information as to substantially all factors are known or thought to be known, prices still will not always react as predicted. The profitability of the Fund and the Master Fund will depend on whether the Master Fund’s commodities portfolio increases in value over time. If the value increases, the Fund will only be profitable if such increases exceed the fees and expenses of the Fund. If these values do not increase, the Fund will not be profitable and will incur losses.

 

Quantitative Forward-Looking Statements

 

Quantifying the Fund’s Trading Risk

The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Fund’s risk exposures — except for those disclosures that are statements of historical fact — constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act. The Fund’s primary market risk exposures are subject to numerous uncertainties, contingencies and risks. Government interventions, defaults and expropriations, illiquid markets, the emergence of dominant fundamental factors, political upheavals, changes in historical price relationships, an influx of new market participants, increased regulation and many other factors could result in material losses as well as in material changes to the risk exposures of the Fund. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s current market exposure will not change materially. Investors may lose all or substantially all of their investment in the Fund.

 

29 

 

 

The Fund’s Risk by Market Sector

The following were the primary trading risk exposures of the Fund as of September 30, 2015 by market sector.

 

Grains 23.53% Corn, Soybeans, Wheat, Soy Oil
     
Livestock 11.76% Hogs, Cattle
     
Metals 23.53% Gold, Silver, Platinum, Copper
     
Energy 17.65% Crude Oil, Natural Gas, NY Harbor ULSD (formerly called Heating Oil)
     
Softs 23.53% Coffee, Cocoa, Sugar, Cotton

 

Non-Trading Risk

The Fund invests its excess funds in short-term U.S. Treasury bills. These instruments are not coupon-bearing and therefore trade at a discount to their value at maturity. The Fund expects that the market risk of holding these investments is not material.

 

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposures

The Fund is unaware of any (i) anticipated known demands, commitments or capital expenditures; (ii) material trends, favorable or unfavorable, in its capital resources; or (iii) trends or uncertainties that will have a material effect on operations.

 

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure

Under ordinary circumstances, the Managing Owner’s discretionary power is limited to determining whether the Fund will make a distribution. Under emergency or extraordinary circumstances, the Managing Owner’s discretionary powers increase, but remain circumscribed. These special circumstances, for example, include the unavailability of the Index or certain natural or man-made disasters. The Managing Owner does not apply risk management techniques. The Fund initiates positions only on the “long” side of the market and does not employ “stop-loss” techniques.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure controls and procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of the management of the Managing Owner, including its chief executive officer and principal financial officer, the Fund carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the chief executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Fund’s disclosure controls and procedures with respect to the Fund were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Fund commenced trading on January 24, 2008 and began to exercise its internal control over financial reporting thereafter. The Fund’s investing activity is limited to the purchase and sale of commodity futures contracts and of short-term U.S. Treasury bills. Futures transactions are made through Morgan Stanley, the Commodity Broker, which provides the Fund with statements on a daily basis. The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, the Fund’s Administrator, reconciles the reports from Morgan Stanley with its own records of Fund transactions. In addition, the Managing Owner each day reconciles its own records with those of Morgan Stanley and the Bank of New York Mellon Corporation.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Fund made no changes to its internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
