Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund

Semiannual Report - April 30, 2024

To Our Shareholders,

For the six months ended April 30, 2024, the net asset value (NAV) total return per Class A Share of the Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund was 8.0% compared with a total return of 21.0% for the Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 Index. The performance of the ICE BofA 3 Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index for the six months ended April 30, 2024 was 2.7%. Other classes of shares are available. See page 3 for additional performance information for all classes.

Enclosed are the financial statements, including the schedule of investments, as of April 30, 2024.

Investment Objective and Strategy (Unaudited)

The Fund's primary investment objective is capital appreciation. Under normal circumstances, the Fund intends to invest primarily in equity securities of companies believed to be likely acquisition targets within twelve to eighteen months. The Fund also may engage in arbitrage transactions by investing in the equity securities of companies that are involved in publicly announced mergers, takeovers, tender offers, leveraged buyouts, spinoffs, liquidations, and other corporate reorganizations.

Performance Discussion (Unaudited)

Global announced mergers and acquisitions (M&A) transactions totaled nearly $900 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023. Noteworthy transactions announced in the fourth quarter included Exxon Mobil's agreement to acquire Pioneer Natural Resources for nearly $60 billion, Chevron's acquisition of Hess Corp for $52.5 billion, and Japan-based, Nippon Steel winning a bidding war for United States Steel Corp for a total deal value of $12 billion.

A total of $798 billion M&A activity was announced on a global basis in the first quarter of 2024; an increase of 38% year-over-year. Within the U.S., $485 billion of transactions were entered into, a 78% increase versus the same period a year ago. Domestic M&A accounted for more than 60% of global activity, the largest percentage since the first quarter of 1989. Activity outside the U.S. totaled $312 billion, a slight increase year-over-year, but a 22% sequential decline relative to the fourth quarter of 2023.

As permitted by regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, paper copies of the Fund's annual and semiannual shareholder reports will no longer be sent by mail, unless you specifically request paper copies of the reports. Instead, the reports will be made available on the Fund's website (www.gabelli.com), and you will be notified by mail each time a report is posted and provided with a website link to access the report. If you already elected to receive shareholder reports electronically, you will not be affected by this change and you need not take any action. To elect to receive all future reports on paper free of charge, please contact your financial intermediary, or, if you invest directly with the Fund, you may call 800-422-3554 or send an email request to [email protected].

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) continued its watchful eye on deals in the first three months of the year, requesting additional information from merging parties across the energy and healthcare sectors. Companies continue to monitor the heightened regulatory environment prior to entering into transactions and are drafting strong merger agreements to protect themselves in the event of regulatory delays.

Done Deals:

MDC Holdings (no longer held at April 30, 2024) is a home builder operating in 34 markets across 16 states in the U.S. The company agreed to be acquired by Japan based Sekisui House for $63 cash per share, or a total deal value of $4.8 billion on January 18. The deal required U.S. antitrust clearance and approval by MDC shareholders. The deal closed on April 19.

Kaman Corp (not held) entered into an agreement to be acquired by private equity firm, Arcline Investment Management for $46 cash per share or a total deal value of $1.3 billion on January 19. The company produces and manufactures highly engineered components for the aerospace and defense sector, in addition to its heavy lift K-MAX manned helicopter and development of its KARGO UAV. The transaction closed on April 19, following the approval of German and U.S. antitrust clearances and an affirmative vote by shareholders.

Mirati Therapeutics (not held) on October 8, 2023 entered into an agreement with Bristol-Myers Squibb where BMY would acquire the oncology company for $58 cash per share, plus an additional $12 contingent value right (CVR) for future drug milestones. The transaction closed on January 23 after receiving final regulatory approvals.

Thank you for your investment in The Gabelli Enterprise Mergers & Acquisitions Fund.

We appreciate your confidence and trust.

(b) The Fund imposes a 2% redemption fee on shares sold or exchanged within seven days of purchase.
(c) Performance results include the effect of the maximum 5.75% sales charge at the beginning of the period.
(d) The Class A Share NAVs are used to calculate the performance for the periods prior to the issuance of Class AAA Shares on February 26, 2010. The actual performance for the Class AAA Shares would have been higher due to lower expenses associated with this share class.
(e) Assuming payment of the 1% maximum contingent deferred sales charge imposed on redemptions made within one year of purchase.
(f) The S&P 500 Index is a market capitalization weighted index of 500 large capitalization stocks commonly used to represent the U.S. equity market. Dividends are considered reinvested. The ICE BofA 3 Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index is comprised of a single issue purchased at the beginning of the month and held for a full month. At the end of the month, that issue is sold and rolled into the outstanding Treasury Bill that matures closest to, but not beyond three months from the rebalancing date. To qualify for selection, an issue must have settled on or before the rebalancing (month end) date. You cannot invest directly in an index.

In the current prospectuses dated February 28, 2024, the Fund's gross expense ratios are 1.84%, 1.84%, 2.59%, and 1.59% for the Class AAA, A, C, and Y Shares, respectively, and the net expense ratio for Class Y Shares after contractual reimbursements by the Adviser is 1.01%. See page 12 for the expense ratios for the six months ended April 30, 2024. Class AAA and Class Y Shares have no sales charge. The maximum sales charge for Class A Shares and Class C Shares is 5.75% and 1.00%, respectively.

Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Investment returns and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. When shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data presented.

Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund
Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited)

For the Six Month Period from November 1, 2023 through April 30, 2024 Expense Table

We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of fees and expenses regarding your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund's gross income, directly reduce the investment return of a fund. When a fund's expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets, this figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The Expense Table below illustrates your Fund's costs in two ways:

Actual Fund Return: This section provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this section to help you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period after any fee waivers and expense reimbursements. The "Ending Account Value" shown is derived from the Fund's actual return during the past six months, and the "Expenses Paid During Period" shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, 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 given for your Fund under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid during this period.

Hypothetical 5% Return: This section provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio. It assumes a hypothetical annualized return of 5% before expenses during the period shown. In this case - because the hypothetical return used is not the Fund's actual return - the results do not apply to your investment and you cannot use the hypothetical account value and expense to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you

paid for the period. This example is useful in making comparisons of the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of 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 such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees, if any, which are described in the Prospectus. If these costs were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Therefore, the 5% hypothetical return is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

The Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.  Organization. The Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund, the sole series of the Gabelli 787 Fund, Inc. (the Corporation), is incorporated in Maryland. The Fund is a non-diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). Its primary objective is capital appreciation. The Fund commenced investment operations on February 28, 2001.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies. As an investment company, the Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that may require the use of management estimates and assumptions in the preparation of its financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or a market's official closing price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. If there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked prices are quoted on such day, the security is valued at the most recently available price or, if the Board of Directors (the Board) so determines, by such other method as the Board shall determine in good faith to reflect its fair market value. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser).

Portfolio securities primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such securities on the relevant market, but may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board if market conditions change significantly after the close of the foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Debt obligations for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked prices quoted on such day, the security is valued using the closing bid price, unless the Board determines such amount does not reflect the securities' fair value, in which case these securities will be fair valued as determined by the Board. Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations. Futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price of the exchange or board of trade on which the applicable contract is traded. OTC futures and options on futures for which market quotations are readily available will be valued by quotations received from a pricing service or, if no quotations are available from a pricing service, by quotations obtained from one of more dealers in the instrument in question by the Adviser.

Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined by the Board. Fair valuation methodologies and procedures may include, but are not limited to: analysis and review of available financial and non-financial information about the company; comparisons with the valuation and changes in valuation of similar securities, including a comparison of foreign securities with the equivalent U.S. dollar value American Depositary Receipt securities at the close of the U.S. exchange; and evaluation of any other information that could be indicative of the value of the security.

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund's investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Board's determinations as to the fair value of investments).

A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in the aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The summary of the Fund's investments in securities by inputs used to value the Fund's investments as of April 30, 2024 is as follows:

During the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Fund did not have material transfers into or out of Level 3. The Fund's policy is to recognize transfers among levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

At April 30, 2024, the total value of Level 3 for the Fund was less than 1% of total net assets.

The Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

General. The Fund uses recognized industry pricing services - approved by the Board and unaffiliated with the Adviser - to value most of its securities, and uses broker quotes provided by market makers of securities not valued by these and other recognized pricing sources. Several different pricing feeds are received to value domestic equity securities, international equity securities, preferred equity securities, and fixed income securities. The data within these feeds are ultimately sourced from major stock exchanges and trading systems where these securities trade. The prices supplied by external sources are checked by obtaining quotations or actual transaction prices from market participants. If a price obtained from the pricing source is deemed unreliable, prices will be sought from another pricing service or from a broker/dealer that trades that security or similar securities.

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common or preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, or fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. When fair valuing a security, factors to consider include recent prices of comparable securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. A significant change in the unobservable inputs could result in a lower or higher value in Level 3 securities. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

The Adviser reports quarterly to the Board the results of the application of fair valuation policies and procedures. These may include backtesting the prices realized in subsequent trades of these fair valued securities to fair values previously recognized.

Investments in Other Investment Companies. The Fund may invest, from time to time, in shares of other investment companies (or entities that would be considered investment companies but are excluded from the definition pursuant to certain exceptions under the 1940 Act) (the Acquired Funds) in accordance with the 1940 Act and related rules. Shareholders in the Fund would bear the pro rata portion of the periodic expenses of the Acquired Funds in addition to the Fund's expenses. For the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Fund's pro rata portion of the periodic expenses charged by the Acquired Funds was less than one basis point.

Derivative Financial Instruments. The Fund may engage in various portfolio investment strategies by investing in derivative financial instruments for the purposes of increasing the income of the Fund, hedging against changes in the value of its portfolio securities and in the value of securities it intends to purchase, or hedging against a specific transaction with respect to either the currency in which the transaction is denominated or another currency. Investing in certain derivative financial instruments, including participation in the options, futures, or swap markets, entails certain execution, liquidity, hedging, tax, and securities, interest, credit, or currency market risks. Losses may arise if the Adviser's prediction of movements in the direction of the securities, foreign currency, and interest rate markets is inaccurate. Losses may also arise if the counterparty does not perform its duties under a contract, or, in the event of default, the Fund may be delayed in or prevented from obtaining payments or other contractual remedies owed to it under derivative contracts. The creditworthiness of the counterparties is closely monitored in order to minimize these risks. Participation in derivative transactions involves investment risks, transaction costs, and potential losses to which the Fund would not be subject absent

The Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

the use of these strategies. The consequences of these risks, transaction costs, and losses may have a negative impact on the Fund's ability to pay distributions.

Collateral requirements differ by type of derivative. Collateral requirements are set by the broker or exchange clearing house for exchange traded derivatives, while collateral terms are contract specific for derivatives traded over-the-counter. Securities pledged to cover obligations of the Fund under derivative contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. Cash collateral, if any, pledged for the same purpose will be reported separately in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

The Fund's derivative contracts held at April 30, 2024, if any, are not accounted for as hedging instruments under GAAP and are disclosed in the Schedule of Investments together with the related counterparty.

Forward Foreign Exchange Contracts. The Fund may engage in forward foreign exchange contracts for the purpose of hedging a specific transaction with respect to either the currency in which the transaction is denominated or another currency as deemed appropriate by the Adviser. Forward foreign exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate and are marked-to-market daily. The change in market value is included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on forward foreign exchange contracts. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

The use of forward foreign exchange contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the Fund's portfolio securities, but it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. Although forward foreign exchange contracts limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the hedged currency, they also limit any potential gain that might result should the value of the currency increase. The Fund's volume of activity in forward foreign exchange contracts during the six months ended April 30, 2024 had an average monthly notional amount of approximately $1,202,549.

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments, and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses that result from changes in foreign exchange rates and/or changes in market prices of securities have been included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign currency translations. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gain/(loss) on investments.

Foreign Securities. The Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies, and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

16

The Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

Foreign Taxes. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.

Securities Sold Short. The Fund entered into short sale transactions. Short selling involves selling securities that may or may not be owned and, at times, borrowing the same securities for delivery to the purchaser, with an obligation to replace such borrowed securities at a later date. The proceeds received from short sales are recorded as liabilities and the Fund records an unrealized gain or loss to the extent of the difference between the proceeds received and the value of an open short position on the day of determination. The Fund records a realized gain or loss when the short position is closed out. By entering into a short sale, the Fund bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security sold short. Dividends on short sales are recorded as an expense by the Fund on the ex-dividend date and interest expense is recorded on the accrual basis. The broker retains collateral for the value of the open positions, which is adjusted periodically as the value of the position fluctuates. Securities sold short and details of collateral at April 30, 2024 are reflected within the Schedule of Investments. For the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Fund incurred $155 in service fees related to its investment positions sold short and held by the broker. These amounts are included in the Statement of Operations under Expenses, Service fees for securities sold short.

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in securities for which the markets are restricted. Restricted securities include securities whose disposition is subject to substantial legal or contractual restrictions. The sale of restricted securities often requires more time and results in higher brokerage charges or dealer discounts and other selling expenses than the sale of securities eligible for trading on national securities exchanges or in the over-the-counter markets. Restricted securities may sell at a price lower than similar securities that are not subject to restrictions on resale. Securities freely saleable among qualified institutional investors under special rules adopted by the SEC may be treated as liquid if they satisfy liquidity standards established by the Board. The continued liquidity of such securities is not as well assured as that of publicly traded securities, and accordingly the Board will monitor their liquidity. At April 30, 2024, the Fund did not hold any restricted securities.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date with realized gain/(loss) on investments determined by using the identified cost method. Interest income (including amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized using the effective yield to maturity method or amortized to earliest call date, if applicable. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities that are recorded as soon after the ex-dividend date as the Fund becomes aware of such dividends.

Determination of Net Asset Value and Calculation of Expenses. Certain administrative expenses are common to, and allocated among, various affiliated funds. Such allocations are made on the basis of each fund's average net assets or other criteria directly affecting the expenses as determined by the Adviser pursuant to procedures established by the Board.

In calculating the NAV per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, redemption fees, and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. Distribution expenses are borne solely by the class incurring the expense.

17

The Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains as determined under GAAP. Distributions from net investment income for federal income tax purposes include net realized gains on foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. Permanent differences were primarily due to the tax treatment of currency gains and losses, and sale of investments in partnerships. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund.

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023 was as follows:

Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income $ 45,009
Net long term capital gains 420,329
Total distributions paid $ 465,338

Provision for Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

The following summarizes the tax cost of investments and the related net unrealized depreciation at April 30, 2024:

Cost/
(Proceeds)
Gross

Appreciation

Net Unrealized

Investments $51,576,363 $7,919,293 $(8,019,833) $(100,540)

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. During the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of April 30, 2024, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund's net assets or results of operations. The Fund's federal and state tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain open, subject to examination. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund's tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

3.  Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions. The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with the Adviser which provides that the Fund will pay the Adviser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at annual rates as follows:

First $1 Billion 0.935%
Next $1 Billion 0.910%
Next $3 Billion 0.885%
Next $5 Billion 0.860%
Thereafter 0.835%

In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides a continuous investment program for the Fund's portfolio, oversees the administration of all aspects of the Fund's business and affairs, and pays the compensation of all Officers and Directors of the Fund who are affiliated persons of the Adviser.

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse expenses of Class Y to the extent necessary to maintain Class Y's total operating expenses (excluding brokerage, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses) until at least September 30, 2024 at no more than 1.00% of the value of its average daily net assets. In addition, the Fund has agreed, during the two year period following any waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser, to repay such amount to the extent, that after giving the effect to the repayment, such adjusted annualized total operating expenses of the Fund would not exceed 1.00% of the value of the Fund's average daily net assets. During the period ended April 30, 2024, the Adviser reimbursed certain expenses in the amount of $81,044. At April 30, 2024, the cumulative amount which the Fund may repay the Adviser, subject to the terms above, is $433,425:

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, expiring October 31, 2024 $ 180,664
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, expiring October 31, 2025 171,717
For the six months ended April 30, 2024, expiring October 31, 2026 81,044
$ 433,425

4.  Distribution Plan. The Fund's Board has adopted a distribution plan (the Plan) for each class of shares, except for Class Y Shares, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Class AAA, Class A, and Class C Share Plans, payments are authorized to G.distributors, LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Adviser, at annual rates of 0.25%, 0.25%, and 1.00%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of those classes, the annual limitations under each Plan. Such payments are accrued daily and paid monthly. Class Y Shares do not participate in the Plan and pay no distribution fees.

5.  Portfolio Securities. Purchases and sales of securities during the six months ended April 30, 2024, other than short term securities and U.S. Government obligations, aggregated $39,750,538 and $44,094,134, respectively.

6.  Transactions with Affiliates and Other Arrangements. During the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Fund paid $16,947 in brokerage commissions on security trades to G.research, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser. Additionally, the Distributor retained a total of $215 from investors representing commissions (sales charges and underwriting fees) on sales and redemptions of Fund shares.

The Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

During the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Fund received credits from a designated broker who agreed to pay certain Fund operating expenses. The amount of such expenses paid through this directed brokerage arrangement during the period was $1,071.

The cost of calculating the Fund's NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. During the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Fund accrued $22,500 in connection with the cost of computing the Fund's NAV.

As per the approval of the Board, the Fund is allocated a portion of the chief compliance officer's cost. For the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Fund paid or accrued $1,233 in chief compliance officer compensation in the Statement of Operations.

The Corporation pays retainer and per meeting fees to Directors not affiliated with the Adviser, plus specified amounts to the Lead Director and Audit Committee Chairman. Directors are also reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Corporation.

7.  Line of Credit. The Fund participates in an unsecured line of credit, which expires on February 26, 2025 and may be renewed annually, of up to $75,000,000 under which it may borrow up to 10% of its net assets from the bank for temporary borrowing purposes. Borrowings under this arrangement bear interest at a floating rate equal to the higher of the Overnight Federal Funds Rate plus 135 basis points or the Overnight Bank Funding Rate plus 135 basis points in effect on that day. This amount, if any, would be included in "Interest expense" in the Statement of Operations. At April 30, 2024, there were no borrowings outstanding under the line of credit.

The average daily amount of borrowings outstanding under the line of credit for the three days of borrowings during the six months ended April 30, 2024 was $105,333 with a weighted average interest rate of 6.58%. The maximum amount borrowed at any time during the six months ended April 30, 2024 was $188,000.

8.  Capital Stock. The Fund offers four classes of shares - Class AAA Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class Y Shares. Class AAA and Class Y Shares are offered without a sales charge. Class A Shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales charge of 5.75%. Class C Shares are subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge for one year after purchase.

The Fund imposes a redemption fee of 2.00% on all classes of shares that are redeemed or exchanged on or before the seventh day after the date of a purchase. The redemption fee is deducted from the proceeds otherwise payable to the redeeming shareholders and is retained by the Fund as an increase in paid-in capital. The redemption fees retained by the Fund during the six months ended April 30, 2024 and the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, if any, can be found in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets under Redemption Fees.

Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund

Board Consideration and Re-Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited)

Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), contemplates that the Board of Directors (the Board) of Gabelli Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions Fund (the Fund), including a majority of the Directors who have no direct or indirect interest in the investment advisory agreement and are not interested persons of the Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act (the Independent Board Members), are required annually to review and re-approve the terms of the Fund's existing investment advisory agreement and approve any newly proposed terms therein. In this regard, the Board reviewed and re-approved, during the most recent six month period covered by this report, the Investment Advisory Agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser) for the Fund.

More specifically, at a meeting held on February 12, 2024, the Board, including the Independent Board Members, considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the selection of the Adviser and the re-approval of the Advisory Agreement.

1) The nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Adviser.

The Board Members reviewed in detail the nature and extent of the services provided by the Adviser under the Advisory Agreement and the quality of those services over the past year. The Board noted that these services included managing the investment program of the Fund, including the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, and overseeing all of the Fund's third party service providers as well as providing general corporate services. The Board Members considered that the Adviser also provided, at its expense, office facilities for use by the Fund and supervisory personnel responsible for supervising the performance of administrative, accounting and related services for the Fund, including monitoring to assure compliance with stated investment policies and restrictions under the 1940 Act and related securities regulations. The Board Members noted that, in addition to managing the investment program for the Fund, the Adviser provided certain non-advisory and compliance services, including services under the Fund's Rule 38a-1 compliance program.

The Board Members also considered that the Adviser paid for all compensation of officers and Board Members of the Fund that are affiliated with the Adviser and that the Adviser further provided services to shareholders of the Fund who had invested through various programs offered by third party financial intermediaries ("Participating Organizations"). The Board Members evaluated these factors based on their direct experience with the Adviser and in consultation with Fund Counsel. The Board noted that the Adviser had engaged BNY, at the Adviser's expense, to assist it in performing certain of its administrative functions. The Board Members concluded that the nature and extent of the services provided were reasonable and appropriate in relation to the advisory fee, that the level of services provided by the Adviser, either directly or through BNY, had not diminished over the past year, and that the quality of service continued to be high.

The Board Members reviewed the personnel responsible for providing services to the Fund and concluded, based on their experience and interaction with the Adviser, that (i) the Adviser was able to retain quality personnel, (ii) the Adviser and its agents exhibited a high level of diligence and attention to detail in carrying out their advisory and administrative responsibilities under the Advisory Agreement, (iii) the Adviser was responsive to requests of the Board, (iv) the scope and depth of the Adviser's resources was adequate, and (v) the Adviser had kept the Board apprised of developments relating to the Fund and the industry in general. The Board Members also focused on the Adviser's reputation and long standing relationship with the Fund. The Board Members also believed that the Adviser had devoted substantial resources and made substantial commitments to address new regulatory compliance requirements applicable to the Fund.

2) The performance of the Fund and the Adviser.

The Board Members reviewed the investment performance of the Fund, on an absolute basis, as compared to its Broadridge peer group of other the SEC registered funds, and against the Fund's broad based securities market benchmark as reflected in the Fund's prospectus and annual report. The Board Members considered the Fund's one-, three-, five-, and ten-year average annual total return for the periods ended December 31, 2023. The peer groups considered by the Board Members were a group of other comparable funds prepared by the Adviser (the "Adviser Peer Group") and a group prepared by Broadridge comprised of the Fund and all retail and institutional alternative event driven funds, regardless of asset size or primary channel of distribution (the "Broadridge Peer Group"). The Board considered these comparisons helpful in their assessment as to whether the Adviser was obtaining for the Fund's shareholders the total return performance that was available in the marketplace, given the Fund's objectives, strategies, limitations and restrictions. In reviewing the performance of the Fund, the Board Members noted that the Fund's performance was above the median for the one-, five- and ten-year periods and below the median for the three-year period as measured against the Adviser Peer Group. Against the Broadridge Peer Group the Board Members noted that the Fund's performance was in the second quintile for the one- and ten-year periods and in the third quintile for the three- and five-year periods. The Board Members concluded that the Fund's performance was reasonable in comparison to that of the Adviser Peer Group and the Broadridge Peer Group.

In connection with its assessment of the performance of the Adviser, the Board Members considered the Adviser's financial condition and whether it had the resources necessary to continue to carry out its functions under the Advisory Agreement. The Board Members concluded that the Adviser had the financial resources necessary to continue to perform its obligations under the Advisory Agreement and to continue to provide the high quality services that it has provided to the Fund to date.

3) The cost of the advisory services and the profits to the Adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund.

In connection with the Board Members' consideration of the cost of the advisory services and the profits to the Adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund, the Board Members considered a number of factors. First, the Board Members compared the level of the advisory fee for the Fund to similar expense ratios of the Adviser Peer Group and similar expense ratios of the Broadridge Peer Group. The Board Members also considered comparative non-management fee expenses and comparative total fund expenses of the Fund and the Adviser Peer Group and Broadridge Peer Group. The Board Members considered this information as useful in assessing whether the Adviser was providing services at a cost that was competitive with other similar funds. In assessing this information, the Board Members considered both the comparative contract rates as well as the level of the total expense ratio, with respect to the Adviser Peer Group and Broadridge Peer Group. The Board Members noted that the Fund's advisory fee ratio and total expense ratio were below the median when compared to those of the Broadridge Peer Group.

The Board Members also reviewed the fees charged by the Adviser to provide similar advisory services to other RICs or accounts with similar investment objectives, noting that the fees charged by the Adviser were the same or lower, than the fees charged to the Fund.

The Board Members also considered an analysis prepared by the Adviser of the estimated profitability to the Adviser of its relationship with the Fund and reviewed with the Adviser its cost allocation methodology in

connection with its profitability. In this regard, the Board Members reviewed Pro-forma Income Statements of the Adviser for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Board Members considered one analysis for the Adviser with respect to its profitability as a whole, and a second analysis for the Adviser with respect to the profitability of its advisory relationship with the Fund. With respect to the Fund-specific profitability analysis, the Board Members received an analysis based on the Fund's average net assets during the period as well as a pro-forma analysis of profitability at higher and lower asset levels. The Board Members concluded that the profitability of the Fund to the Adviser under both analyses was not excessive.

4) The extent to which economies of scale will be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect those economies of scale.

With respect to the Board Members' consideration of economies of scale, the Board Members discussed whether economies of scale would be realized by the Fund at higher asset levels. The Board Members also reviewed data from the Expense Peer Group to assess whether the Expense Peer Group funds had advisory fee breakpoints and, if so, at what asset levels. The Board Members also assessed whether certain of the Adviser's costs would increase if asset levels rise. The Board Members noted the Fund's current size and concluded that under foreseeable conditions, they were unable to assess at this time whether economies of scale would be realized if the Fund were to experience significant asset growth. In the event there were to be significant asset growth in the Fund, the Board Members determined to reassess whether the advisory fee appropriately took into account any economies of scale that had been realized as a result of that growth.

5) Other Factors.

In addition to the above factors, the Board Members also discussed other benefits received by the Adviser from its management of the Fund. The Board Members considered that the Adviser does use soft dollars in connection with its management of the Fund.

Based on a consideration of all these factors in their totality, the Board Members, including all of the Independent Board Members, determined that the Fund's advisory fee was fair and reasonable with respect to the quality of services provided and in light of the other factors described above that the Board deemed relevant. Accordingly, the Board Members determined to approve the continuation of the Fund's Advisory Agreement. The Board Members based their decision on evaluations of all these factors as a whole and did not consider any one factor as all-important or controlling.
