BUSINESS — The Guardian Investment Trust is a Trust, operating under the laws of the State of Connecticut, and in accordance with its own trust agreement.

SOURCES OF INCOME — The income of The Guardian Investment Trust is derived from dividends and interest from investments; appreciation in market value of securities held in the portfolio; participation in underwritings; re-in- wvestment of surplus and profits; the exercising of subscrirtion rights and similar financial operations made possible through skillful management of large amounts of capital.
