Dear Fellow Shareholders:
Our funds continue to prosper by consistently applying the conservative investment approach that has been successful over so many years.
Don’t Move The Ball, Lucy
I have long been a fan of the Peanuts Gang, Charlie Brown and the rest of the group. In fact, I sometimes sport my Peanuts themed sweater that has a large image of Snoopy and Woodstock playing football. But the football image from the Peanuts gang that has been on my mind these days is Lucy holding the ball for Charlie Brown to kick. To refresh your memory, that is the scene where Charlie Brown worries that Lucy will pull the ball away at the last moment as Charlie Brown goes to kick it. Lucy insists that she won’t move that ball, but she always does, and Charlie Brown goes flying in the air landing on his back in a painful thump. “Good Grief”!
It feels like the markets have been subject to their own version of the Lucy & Charlie Brown scene. Since mid-year we have experienced tumbles as the market reacted to global financial and political news on top of shifting expectations for corporate earnings and economic growth. The market regroups and gets set for another move back up when it appears that political leaders are finally coming to grips with Europe’s grave systemic problems, only to fall again when the measures taken prove to be inadequate.
The market suffered a major decline in early August when concerns about financial stability in Europe triggered a decline of more than 12% on the S&P 500. Troubles had been brewing for a while, but events at that time truly raised concerns about the possibility of sovereign defaults and economic contagion not just in the Euro zone, but on a global scale. The stock market recovered, and then lost more than 6% as investors became concerned that European leaders were not doing enough to confront the systemic problems of slow growth and excessive borrowing by peripheral Eurozone countries. The stock market rallied back, recovering almost half of the total decline from mid-year until concerns that a “voluntary” restructuring of Greek debt would force losses on investors in sovereign bonds, circumventing the protection of credit default swaps that many investors had used to hedge their risk.
During this time the markets were also subject to inter-day volatility, and sharp day-to-day swings as each new pronouncement from European leaders gave investors hope that a solution was at hand, only to be disappointed when the details were vague or the potential for any realistic change was limited. Just like Lucy, they said that they would do what they need to do, only to pull away at every critical juncture.
Despite this frustration, the markets and investors seem to be learning a valuable lesson, albeit slowly. There seems to be less euphoria over every pronouncement from European banking and political leaders and more of a “show me” mentality. The market swings are clearly less pronounced, and there is a greater focus on the details and realistic potential of any new proposal. Since the problems in the Eurozone are critical and complex, with far reaching implications for members within the union and global trading partners, any potential solution is fraught with uncertainty. A more patient and skeptical approach by our markets regarding potential European solutions is not only healthy, but provides the opportunity for investors to focus some attention on domestic news flow on business, the economy and political developments here at home.
The Manor Fund
The Manor Fund rose 0.78%, net of all fees and expenses, during the year ending December 31, 2011, underperforming the S&P 500 index (2.11%) but outperforming comparable mutual funds as measured by the Lipper Large-Cap Core mutual fund index (0.01%). The Fund continues to outperform the Lipper index for the trailing 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year periods, with returns of 13.13%, 0.69% and 4.07% for the Fund compared to 13.07%, -0.61% and 2.15% for the index. The Fund continues to outperform the S&P 500 index for the trailing 5-year and 10-year periods with returns of 0.69% and 4.07% for the Fund compared to –0.25% and 2.91% for the index.
During the year ending December 31, 2011 the Fund was helped by strong performance from Goodrich Corp., Watson Pharmaceuticals, IBM, Corp., Norfolk Southern Company, and Colgate-Palmolive Company. Shares of Goodrich jumped after receiving a buyout offer from United Technologies at a substantial premium to its share price early in the year. Watson Pharmaceuticals rose steadily through much of the year as the company recorded growing earnings and continued to roll out new generic and proprietary pharmaceutical products. The shares of IBM also rose steadily throughout the year reacting to strong earnings reports and the expectations of continued economic growth. Norfolk Southern reported sharply higher earnings early in the year, pushing the shares upward, and then rebounded from the market decline mid-year as the economy showed signs of improvement. Colgate-Palmolive shares rose steadily early in the year as earnings grew, and then avoided much of the weakness mid-year due to the defensive nature of this consumer products company.
Notable laggards during the year ending December 31, 2011 include Agilent Technologies, JPMorgan Chase, Weatherford International, Amphenol Corp., and Applied Materials. Shares of Agilent fell sharply mid-year, together with the overall market, on concerns that instability in Europe would hurt revenue and earnings at this technology company. Relative performance suffered when the shares did not participate in the market rebound late in the year. The shares of JPMorgan Chase declined through much of the year as earnings declined, and concerns persisted about many of the overhanging issues from mortgage lending and exposure to high risk European sovereign bonds. Weatherford International declined, despite rising earnings, on concerns that the decline in energy demand associated with a weak global economy would hurt demand for their energy exploration services. Amphenol Corp. shares were weak due to uncertainty about operating results. The company reported a sharp earnings increase early in the year, but then reported a string of weaker results over the balance of the year. Applied Materials shares declined through much of the year as the company reported a slight but steady decline in earnings. Shares were also hurt by concerns about the impact of slow economic growth on this producer of equipment used to manufacture semiconductors.
The Growth Fund
The Manor Growth Fund declined 1.60%, net of all fees and expenses, during the year ending December 31, 2011, underperforming the S&P 500 index (2.11%) but outperforming comparable mutual funds as measured by the Lipper Large-Cap Growth mutual fund index (-2.98%). The Fund continues to outperform the S&P 500 index for the trailing 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year periods, and since inception, with returns of 17.72%, 0.41%, 3.00%, and 1.49% for the Fund, compared to 14.10%, –0.25%, 2.91%, and 1.13% for the index. The Fund also continues to outperform comparable mutual funds as measured by the Lipper Large-Cap Growth mutual fund index for the trailing 3-year, 10-years, and since inception, with returns of 17.72%, 3.00%, and 1.49% for the Fund, compared to 15.66%, 1.42% and –1.79% for the index.
During the year ending December 31, 2011 the Fund was helped by gains in Dollar Tree, MasterCard, Inc., Apple Inc., Church & Dwight Company, and Precision CastParts. Dollar Tree rose steadily throughout the year as investors focused on growing consumer interest in deep discount retailers. MasterCard also rose steadily throughout the year, driven by strong earnings as consumer spending remained stronger than most expected. The shares also responded positively after the announced changes in card usage fees announced by the Fed were not as onerous as expected. Apple rallied sharply late in the year after the company reported revenue and earnings growth that was much better than expected. The results showed that the company continued to gain market share despite increased competition. Church & Dwight rose steadily throughout the year. This consumer products company was a beneficiary of the emphasis on value as slow economic growth constrained incomes. Shares of Precision CastParts were volatile but exhibited an upward trend through most of the year. The company reported increasing earnings each quarter as demand in the aerospace industry remained strong.
Weak holdings during the year ending December 31, 2011 include Alpha Natural Resources, MetroPCS Communications, Cummins, Inc., Hess Corporation, and Urban Outfitters. Alpha Natural Resources declined on concerns that a slowdown in economic growth in China would lead to reduced demand for metallurgical coal. The company reported weak operating results raising investor concerns about increasing competition from natural gas as an electrical generation fuel, as well. MetroPCS declined after the company reported disappointing revenue and earnings, and announcing that they expected capital expenditures to rise during the year. The announcement heightened investor concerns that MetroPCS will incur higher expenses as it competes in the smart phone marketplace. Cummins also fell throughout the year, despite reporting higher earnings. Weakness in the stock reflects concerns among investors that slower economic growth globally will lead to reduced demand for the company’s truck engines and power generation units. Hess declined sharply mid-year due to concerns about global economic stability. The company reported lower earnings, but the share price stabilized during the latter portion of the year. Shares of Urban Outfitters declined sharply after the company reported a steep decline in earnings early in the year. The company seems to be struggling with merchandising issues as it adjusts its store format in a difficult retail environment. We elected to liquidate this holding later in the year as operating results remained weak.
The Bond Fund
The Manor Bond Fund generated a return of 0.83%, net of all fees and expenses, for the year ending December 31, 2011, underperforming the Barclays Intermediate Government index return (6.71%) and the Lipper US Government mutual fund index (8.54%). Performance reflects the relatively conservative position of the Fund’s investment portfolio of US Treasury securities. The portfolio has an average yield to maturity of 0.45%, an average maturity of approximately 2.33 years, and an average duration of 2.26 years. The duration of a bond portfolio is a measure of risk, with a lower duration indicating a lower level of risk. The Fund is managed to provide a low-risk alternative for conservative investors.
You Can Do It, Lucy
Charlie Brown keeps trying because he knows that Lucy could really hold the ball, and if she does he could kick it through the uprights. Investors know the same thing. There are a number of factors that could work in our favor, and it might not take much to trigger a move that could generate a decent return in the stock market. The market continues to trade at inexpensive valuations. Earnings growth has declined over the past year, and earnings expectations from analysts and corporate management indicate that the trend could continue, but that could change quickly. Corporations have become more efficient over the past several years and management seems much better equipped to navigate in a slow growth economy. Since the Fed has pledged to support economic growth by keeping short-term rates close to zero and purchasing higher-risk long maturity securities, the risks for a double-dip recession here should be reduced; and if central bankers in Europe are able to avoid the disaster of failed sovereign refinancings they might buy enough time to allow their economies to begin to recover. Just a little unexpected good news on Europe, corporate earnings, or the economy could be all that it takes.
And, of course, domestic politics could play a role. The presidential election year is generally good for the economy and markets. The potential for a change in leadership in the White House could be viewed as a positive by the markets. While that may be difficult to predict at this point, the markets will be watching carefully. Keep in mind, however, that over the longer-term the financial markets have prospered more when control of the White House and Congress is split between the two major parties. Investors seem to like “gridlock” and if that is the outcome of this election it could also be viewed as a positive.
Our investment approach will continue to balance the risks of financial problems in Europe and weak economic growth here at home with the potential for some workable solution and the benefits of reasonable valuations in the market. We will continue to focus on investing in companies with attractive valuations relative to their growth potential and financial stability. In addition to that valuation criteria, we will look for company management that has a clear vision and ability to execute in this challenging economy.
Sincerely,
Daniel A. Morris

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below: | | |
| | | | | |
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access. |
| | | | | |
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an active market, price for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, yield curves, default rates and similar data. |
| | | | | |
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
| | | | | |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. |

MANOR INVESTMENT FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2011
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization: Manor Investment Funds, Inc. (the “Company”) is a non-diversified regulated investment company and was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on September 13, 1995. Effective, January 1, 2012, the Manor Investment Funds, Inc. were reorganized as a Delaware Business Trust, as Manor Investment Funds (the “Trust”); comprising of Manor Fund, Growth Fund and Bond Fund (collectively “the Funds”). Effective January 3, 2012 Manor Investment Funds, Inc. was dissolved by domestication in Pennsylvania. The primary investment objective of each of the Funds follows: Manor Fund - conservative capital appreciation and current income, investing primarily in common stocks of large corporations in the United States; Growth Fund - long-term capital appreciation, investing primarily in common stocks of U.S. corporations; Bond Fund - intermediate-term fixed income, investing primarily in U.S. Government obligations.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Security Valuations: Equity securities generally are valued by using market quotations, but may be valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service when the Advisor believes such prices accurately reflect the fair market value of such securities. Securities that are traded on any stock exchange or on the NASDAQ over-the-counter market are generally valued by the pricing service at the last quoted sale price. Lacking a last sale price, an equity security is generally valued by the pricing service at its last bid price. When market quotations are not readily available, when the Advisor determines that the market quotation or the price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the current market value, or when restricted or illiquid securities are being valued, such securities are valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. The Board has adopted guidelines for good faith pricing, and has delegated to the Advisor the responsibility for determining fair value prices, subject to review by the Board of Directors.
Fixed income securities generally are valued by using market quotations, but may be valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service when the Advisor believes such prices accurately reflect the fair market value of such securities. A pricing service utilizes electronic data processing techniques based on yield spreads relating to securities with similar characteristics to determine prices for normal institutional-size trading units of debt securities without regard to sale or bid prices. If the Advisor decides that a price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the fair market value of the securities, when prices are not readily available from a pricing service, or when restricted or illiquid securities are being valued, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor, subject to review by the Board of Directors. Short term investments in fixed income securities with maturities of less than 60 days when acquired, or which subsequently are within 60 days of maturity, are valued by using the amortized cost method of valuation, which the Board has determined will represent fair value.
Federal Income Taxes: The Funds policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
In addition, GAAP requires management of the Funds to analyze all open tax years, fiscal years 2008-2011, as defined by IRS statue of limitations for all major industries, including federal tax authorities and certain state tax authorities. As of and during the year ended December 31, 2011, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds have no examination in progress and are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total tax amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Distributions to Shareholders: The Funds intend to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its net realized capital gains and net investment income, if any, at year-end. Distributions will be recorded on ex-dividend date.
Other: The Funds follow industry practice and record security transactions on the trade date. The specific identification method is used for determining gains or losses for financial statements and income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums are amortized over the useful lives of the respective securities when determined to be material. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends will be provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications: In accordance with GAAP, the Growth Fund recorded a permanent book/tax difference of $23,556 from net investment loss to paid-in-capital. This reclassification has no impact on the net asset value of the Fund and is designed generally to present undistributed income and net realized gains on a tax basis, which is considered to be more informative to shareholders.
Subsequent Events: Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.
2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
The Company has an investment advisory agreement (the “agreement”) with Morris Capital Advisors, Inc. (the “Advisor”), with whom certain officers and directors of the Funds are affiliated, to furnish investment management services to the Funds. Under the terms of the agreement, the Funds will pay the Advisor a monthly fee based on the Funds’ average daily net assets at the annual rate of 1.00% for Manor Fund and Growth Fund and 0.5% for Bond Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Advisor earned advisory fees from the Manor, Growth and Bond Funds of $42,477, $45,409 and $9,765, respectively.
Under the terms of the agreement if the aggregate expenses of the Funds are equal to or greater than 1.50% for Manor Fund and Growth Fund and 1.00% for Bond Fund of the Funds’ net assets the Advisor will reimburse the Funds for these expenses. The reimbursements from the Advisor for the Manor, Growth and Bond Funds for the year ended December 31, 2011 were, $17,774, $18,627, and $14,519, respectively. As of December 31, 2011, the Fund owed the Advisor $215 for the Manor Fund, $82 for the Growth Fund. As of December 31, 2011, the Advisor owed the Bond Fund $2,878.
3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Investment transactions, excluding short-term investments, for the year ended December 31, 2011, were as follows:
Manor Fund Growth Fund Bond Fund
Purchases $535,515 $434,846 $849,824
Sales $487,403 $529,450 $1,116,455
4. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
As of December 31, 2011, the tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and cost of investment securities were as follows:
Manor Fund Growth Fund Bond Fund
Federal tax cost of investments, including short-term investments $ 3,304,579 $ 3,520,805 $ 1,787,939
Gross tax appreciation of investments $ 1,132,397 $1,062,350 $ 31,959
Gross tax depreciation of investments $( 257,849) $( 327,743) $ 0
Net tax appreciation
$ 874,548 $ 734,607 $ 31,959
The Funds tax basis capital gains and losses are determined only at the end of each fiscal year. For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the following represents the tax basis capital gains and losses:
Manor Fund Growth Fund Bond Fund
Capital loss carry-forwards + $ (246,582) $ (317,465) $ 0
2016 $ —
$( 72,463) $ —
2017 $ (246,582)
$(183,541) $ —
2018 $ —
$( 61,461) $ —
Distributable Earnings
$ 15,335
$ —
$ 4,134
Accumulated Realized Gains
$ —
$ —
$ 16,166
+ The capital loss carry-forwards will be used to offset any capital gains realized by the Funds in future years through the expiration dates. The Funds will not make distributions from capital gains while a capital loss carry-forward remains.
The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 generally allows capital losses incurred in a taxable year beginning after December 22, 2010 (post-enactment year) to be carried forward for an unlimited period to the extent not utilized. However, any capital loss carry-forward generated in a post-enactment year must be carried forward to offset subsequent year net capital gains before any capital loss carry-forward from a pre-enactment year can be used. This may increase the risk that a capital loss generated in a pre-enactment year will expire unutilized.
Income and long-term capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were as follows:
Manor Fund Growth Fund Bond Fund
12/31/11 12/31/10 12/31/11 12/31/10 12/31/11 12/31/10
Ordinary Income (Loss) $15,335 $10,183 $ — $ — $ 3,760 $12,538
Short-term Gain (Loss) $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 76 $ —
Long-term Gain (Loss) $ — $ — $ — $ — $16,166 $ 3,273
5.
SHAREHOLDER SERVICES PLAN
The shareholders and Board of Trustees of the Company approved a “Shareholder Services Plan” (the “Plan”) at a meeting held on September 15, 2011. The Company adopted this Plan to enable the Company to bear, directly or indirectly, expenses relating to the provision of certain shareholder services each of the respective funds of the Company. The Company will pay Service Providers a fee of .25% of the average daily net assets of each of the Manor, Growth and Bond Fund assets with whom the Service Provider has a service relationship for shareholder services. Services for which this fee may be paid include, but are not limited to, (i) maintaining accounts relating to Clients that invest in Shares; (ii) arranging for bank wires; (iii) responding to Client inquiries relating to the services performed by Service Providers; (iv) responding to inquiries from Clients concerning their investment in Shares; (v) assisting Clients in changing dividend options, account designations and addresses; (vi) providing information periodically to Clients showing their position in Shares; (vii) forwarding shareholder communications from the Funds such as proxies, shareholder reports, annual reports, and dividend distribution and tax notices to Clients; (viii) processing purchase, exchange and redemption requests from Clients and placing orders with the Funds or their service providers; (ix) providing sub-accounting with respect to Shares beneficially owned by Clients; and (x) processing dividend payments from the Funds on behalf of Clients. Service Providers may also use this fee for payments to financial institutions and intermediaries such as banks, savings and loan associations, insurance companies, investment counselors, broker-dealers, mutual fund supermarkets, and the Service Providers’ affiliates and subsidiaries as compensation for such services as are described herein. The Funds did not incur any fees related to the Plan for the year ended December 31, 2011.
6. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
In May 2011 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04 “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). ASU 2011-04 includes common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to disclose additional information for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to make disclosures about amounts and reasons for all transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. The new and revised disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Management is currently evaluating the implications of ASU No. 2011-04 and its impact on the financial statements.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of the Funds as of December 31, 2011, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

| | | |
Expense Example |
| | | |
As a shareholder of Manor Investment Funds, you incur ongoing costs which consist of management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. |
| | | |
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, July 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011. |
| | | |
Actual Expenses |
| | | |
The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. |
| | | |
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes |
| | | |
The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in these Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. |
