November 27, 2023

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, US equities attained modest gains, recovering from a poor market in 2022 where aggressive Federal Reserve action, recession fears, and persistent inflation hurt stocks. Over the current fiscal year, the S&P 500^® Index rose 10.14%, driven by large-cap technology stocks and supported by healthy consumer spending. As more evidence emerged showing inflation declining without an increase in unemployment, stocks rallied. Investors have begun to anticipate the end of the Fed’s tightening cycle. For now, fears over a policy mistake or sharp recession have been replaced with expectations of a soft-landing or mid-cycle slowdown. Elsewhere in the stock market, energy stocks, which had benefited from supply constraints and inflation following the pandemic, suffered the most in 2023, reversing two years of strong gains.

During the coronavirus pandemic, global policy makers struggled to balance the uncertain economic outlook and eventual unintended consequences of their interventions. The deference to excessive monetary and fiscal stimulus, when compounded by supply chain challenges and labor shortages, caused inflation to spread globally towards the end of the Covid era. The battle to contain this inflation encompassed most of the past two years. In March of 2022, the Federal Reserve initiated a series of sizable interest rates increases. Ultimately, the influential US Fed Fund overnight lending rate would climb from 0.25% to 5.5% in just 17 months. The aggressive steps weighed heavily on US equities in 2022, but have indeed suppressed inflation, all without tilting the economy into a recession or collapsing job growth. Chairman Powell deserves credit for the progress thus far.

One of the leading forces behind the rise in US equities during the fiscal year was the frenzy behind ChatGPT and the proliferation of Artificial Intelligence (AI). With advances in machine learning, software and processing power, AI has emerged as the next great technological innovation. We do not disagree that its potential is exciting, but our enthusiasm is also tempered by the familiar fever of a new highly hyped technology, its impact on near-term earnings, and extreme valuations that accompany the fever. We’ve seen similar frenzies behind digital printing, virtual reality, cryptocurrency, augmented reality hardware, big data and more. Nevertheless, all things AI have captivated investors and the year’s top performers are all considered prime beneficiaries.

While the profit potential for AI is still too early to ascertain, Oak Associates generally prefers to participate in newer technological trends through large-cap technology leaders with exposure, or the ability to make a significant monetary commitment to the opportunity, rather than dedicated IPOs or perceived “pure-plays” in the space. Time and money are two very potent competitive threats and the historical record is littered with exciting firms that were unable to endure the path to profitability. We continue to monitor the opportunity and will make investment shifts as needed.

Significant changes to the investment landscape in 2022/2023 are likely to have long-lasting repercussions for more speculative segments of the equity market, specifically: start-ups, high-valued venture backed firms, and not-yet profitable small-caps. The onset of the Fed’s 2022-2023 tightening cycle ended the nearly decade-long period of Zero Interest Rate Policy (ZIRP). With rates close to zero, borrowing was inexpensive and institutional investors were enticed into segments that offered return profiles now unavailable in standard fixed-income assets. Hedge funds and venture capital seemed to thrive as alternative asset managers captured market share. Venture firms were able

Shareholder Letter

to raise capital and seed businesses while also offering a very tolerant outlook towards profitability or exit IPOs. With the cost of capital now significantly higher, the era of seemingly unlimited access to cheap financing and deferred return expectations is likely over. Further threatening the start-up industry was the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and the potential regional banking crisis that developed in the first quarter of 2023.

With prevailing short-term interest rates pushing 5%, the capitalization of several banks came under pressure as customers withdrew demand deposits in search of better short-term yields. This occurred at a time when the value of long-term balance sheet assets was also collapsing. The practice of borrowing short to lend long requires an upward sloping yield curve which was upended by the Fed’s inflation fight. In a fractional banking system with a modern twist, this led to an electronic bank run at Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), a venture-capital focused California bank. Oak was not an investor in SVB. The sharp change in rates, along with poor risk controls, hedging, and liquidity, precipitated a series of bank failures, resulting in the seizures of several institutions by the FDIC. The threat of a wider banking crisis lingered in Q2 2023, hampering financial stocks, but the FDIC’s actions appear to have curtailed the potential contagion.

The impact of rising interest rates over the past fiscal year also wreaked havoc on bond investors. The popular iShares 20+ Year US Government Bond ETF lost more than 10% in the fiscal year and is down 40% over the past two years. Fixed-income investors are now confronted with the prospect of the Fed keeping interest rates “higher-for-longer”. When combined with heightened polarization in Washington and discord within the House of Representatives, which is responsible for appropriations and government spending, risk over a government shutdown, the long-term viability of social services programs, and overall credit worthiness of US Government securities have all affected the globally important US Government bond market and US greenback.

With the tremendous amount of economic tightening imposed over the past two years, and massive withdrawal of quantitative stimulus, the risks of an eventual recession remain. Thus far, a healthy consumer and strong job market has carried the economy. Early signs of increasing credit delinquencies, falling savings rates, and tougher lending standards are areas of concern to watch. Yet, corporate profits have remained strong and valuation levels are not unattractive to warrant a major valuation reset. Pockets of hype in technology and pharmaceuticals are somewhat speculative, but the overall sentiment towards equities is not extreme. With more progress against inflation and the interest rate tightening cycle now on pause, an economic slowdown may remain elusive for a while longer. As always, geopolitical events can be disruptive and the risk of regional problems expanding into bigger conflicts persists. These developments are always hard to assess or predict.

Looking into 2024, the outlook for equities depends on continued success against inflation. The restrictive fiscal and monetary conditions have done their job, but should the Fed add more constraints to prevent an inflation rebound, equities could falter. The US economy has always been driven by the consumer and a continued strong labor market bodes well for consumer confidence and spending. A decline in mortgage rates generally would also recharge the housing and construction sectors. Given the severity of tightening already in the economic pipeline, we do believe that it is probable the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and inflation have likely peaked and should continue to trend lower in 2024, albeit not always in a straight line. While market participants continue to anticipate that the Fed will soon unwind their tightening, this too may be premature unless deeper economic stress develops. Although current interest rates may

Shareholder Letter

be considered restrictive relative to the past decade, compared to historical levels, they are not extreme. We suspect the Fed would prefer to preserve the reclaimed power that comes with its ability to implement future interest rate cuts for as long as possible.

To endure the economic uncertainty, our approach focuses on companies with strong market positions and high levels of profitability. We naturally tend to avoid companies with high levels of leverage, or interest expense burdens, as these are often incremental constraints to diminish profits and create refinancing risk. At this point of the economic cycle, we favor quality and profitability metrics over more cyclical factors. Should the economy falter, stable earnings, high margins, and growth opportunities tend to weather uncertainty while still providing opportunity in rising markets. We also continue to prefer those sectors with secular trends and companies with shareholder-friendly practices.

Thank you for your investment in the Oak Associates Funds.

With regards,

White Oak Select Growth Fund (the “Fund”) rose 12.28% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, while the S&P 500^®Index gained 10.14% and the Morningstar Large Blend category increased 7.62%. Over the last ten years, the Fund has risen an average of 9.89% per year.

The US stock market recovered in 2023 as optimism over the end of the Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed”) interest rate tightening cycle grew and more evidence showed success against inflation. Recall that US equities suffered in 2022 as the Fed launched a series of historic interest rate increases to tackle persistent inflation following the Coronavirus pandemic. The Fed Funds overnight lending rate climbed from 0.25% to 5.50% in just seventeen months, including four consecutive three-quarter point rate increases. The Fed also curtailed its practice of quantitative easing to suffocate the velocity of money. These efforts constrained economic activity and suppressed inflation, all without fueling unemployment. Successfully executing this strategy allowed US equities to recover in 2023.

Within the US equity markets, leadership was notably narrow, with large-cap and mega-cap stocks driving returns. A preference for larger companies is expected, given the difficulty small firms face obtaining financing and maintaining profitability in a tighter economy. At the sector level, a wave of excitement about Artificial Intelligence (AI) rallied certain technology stocks. The release of ChatGPT and the hype associated with its transformative applications drove semiconductor, software, and other companies considered prime beneficiaries of AI growth. While extremely interesting, the investment future of AI is still nascent and valuations are extreme.

During the fiscal year, Meta Platforms was the best performer and largest contributor to the Fund’s fiscal year return. The parent company of Facebook underperformed the prior year due to concerns over spending on virtual reality products and development of the metaverse, but renewed fiscal discipline saw its shares climb 216% during the fiscal year. Semiconductor equipment manufacturer KLA-Tenor was the second-best performer, rising 48%, as chip stocks benefited from the frenzy behind AI.

Charles Schwab Corp. is the Fund’s worst performing company during the fiscal year. Due to the position’s weighting in the Fund, it was a large drag on performance. The discount brokerage firm suffered during the regional banking crisis in the first quarter of 2023. With the sharp rise in interest rates, the stock fell on concerns over customer withdrawals and pressure to offer higher yielding accounts, as this has a negative effect on net interest margins. We analyzed these concerns and concluded that Charles Schwab’s business was different from the pressures the regional banks experienced and customers tend to transfer funds internally, rather than move institutions. Nevertheless, the firm’s shares dropped 33% last fiscal year. We continue to feel Charles Schwab’s asset gathering abilities make it an attractive long-term beneficiary of demographics and wealth creation.

Looking to 2024, the Fed’s action will continue to affect the stock market and economy. Despite success at suppressing inflation, any rebound that necessitates further constraints would be problematic. Thus far, the economy and the job market have remained resilient in the face of tighter economic conditions. Given these headwinds, we believe that high-quality growth stocks are an attractive market segment to weather both the inflation threat and economic uncertainty.

Pin Oak Equity Fund (the “Fund”) rose 10.59% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, while the broad Morningstar U.S. Market Total Return Index gained 9.11% and the Morningstar Large Blend Category increased 7.62%. Over the last ten years, the Fund has risen an average of 8.51% per year.

Our message and outlook have remained the same throughout the year; that the economy and markets would likely do fine early on and then face headwinds as the lagged effects of monetary policy began to impact the economy in earnest. This remains our view. However, while growth does appear likely to slow, we believe the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) has done an admirable job in bringing down inflation without doing significant harm to the labor market. We will be watching closely to determine if the employment market can remain resilient enough to keep consumers spending until inflation reaches targeted levels.

The economy and US equity markets proved resilient in fiscal 2023 driven by a consumer that has benefited from a tight labor market and strong corresponding wage growth. Within the market however, strength has been extremely narrow with large capitalization technology stocks leading the way. Excitement surrounding the long-term potential for Artificial Intelligence (AI) was also a significant factor in the outperformance of the technology sector. Alternatively, the Energy sector lagged after two strong years as did the Financial space after the regional banking crisis early in the year.

During the fiscal year, Meta Platforms was the best performer and largest contributor to the Fund’s fiscal year return. The parent company of Facebook underperformed the prior year due to concerns over spending on virtual reality products and development of the metaverse, but renewed fiscal discipline and a return to growth caused the shares to more than double during the fiscal year. Alphabet Inc., holding company of Google, was the second-strongest contributor to performance rising significantly as early fears of severe economic slowdown proved incorrect.

Unsurprisingly, the Fund’s worst performer came from the Financial sector as Charles Schwab Corp. lagged along with other financial companies due to a series of bank failures in March. While Charles Schwab did see cash deposits fall, this cash largely remained within the Schwab complex, moving from cash deposits to money market funds as investors sought the higher interest rates offered by the latter post the Fed’s tightening policy. We continue to feel that Charles Schwab’s ability to gather assets give it a strong ability to benefit from favorable demographic trends and continued wealth creation over the long-term.

Looking forward, we believe that the restrictive policy already in the pipeline will keep downward pressure on inflation and get us into a range where the Fed can declare victory. And when looking back historically at inflationary periods, solving the inflation problem tends to be potentially very positive for stock market returns going forward.

Portfolio Manager

Rock Oak Core Growth Fund (the “Fund”) declined 0.29% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, while the Morningstar U.S. Mid Cap Index dropped 0.87%, and the Morningstar Mid Blend Category declined 0.80%. Over the last ten years, the Fund has risen an average of 6.18% per year.

Over the past fiscal year, the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) continued its stance on combating inflation by increasing interest rates. Towards the end of the fiscal year end, the pace and size of their rate hikes have slowed as inflation has contracted. Stocks rallied as investors applauded the potential end of the Fed’s tightening cycle. However, for the Fed to reach their goal of 2% inflation, they have stated they might need to keep rates higher for longer.

Within the US equity markets, there has been narrow leadership, with larger companies and those associated with artificial intelligence outperforming. Smaller companies, banks, and higher leveraged companies have underperformed this year due to the higher interest rate environment. The Fed’s rapid and aggressive rate hikes resulted in a poor bond market, which weakened banks’ balance sheets and made it more difficult for companies to borrow money. This creates challenges for smaller and higher leveraged companies, as the cost of capital has risen, posing a higher risk for investors. This is essentially the inverse of the monetary and fiscal policies these types of companies have enjoyed for most of the past decade.

The Fund’s best performing stock in the fiscal year was ESAB Corp., a metalworking machinery company that rallied due to reshoring, a shortage of welders, and an increase in automation/robotics. TransDigm Group Inc., an aerospace manufacturing company, was another strong performer this fiscal year, benefiting from the increase in travel and the increase in defense spending due to the growing number of geopolitical conflicts.

The Fund’s largest declines came from SolarEdge Technologies and Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. SolarEdge Technologies, a renewable energy company that offers solar power inverter solutions for residential and commercial customers, experienced lower demand due to higher borrowing costs. Fiscal squabbles in Washington over government funding also weighed on the renewable energy sector overall. Ubiquiti Networks, Inc., a wireless networking company, experienced cooling demand just as they increased their debt to build up inventory, which was based on previous quarters of hot demand and that weighed on results.

Going forward, as monetary and fiscal policies remain restrictive and interest rates remain higher for longer, we expect this will continue to put a strain on both consumers and companies as the cost of capital and lending standards increase. Thus, as a part of its investment philosophy, the Fund focuses on companies with the following increasingly important characteristics: companies that trade at a reasonable price, are committed to creating value for shareholders, have a low debt burden, and have disciplined management. The Fund continues to focus on these characteristics as a key tenant of its overall investment philosophy.

River Oak Discovery Fund (the “Fund”) declined 5.06% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, while the Morningstar U.S. Small Cap Total Return Index dropped 2.66% and the Morningstar Small Blend Category declined 4.86%. Over the last ten years, the Fund has risen an average of 7.02% per year.

Inflation was the foremost issue in the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023. The Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) raised interest rates and vowed to keep them high to bring inflation down to their 2% target. The US economy also experienced a number of shocks this year, including a banking crisis, the debt ceiling negotiations, increased tensions with China, the ongoing war in Ukraine, and, more recently, the Israel-Hamas war. Despite these shocks, the economy held up well, employment remained high, and inflation slowed. Nonetheless, smaller companies tend to suffer during periods of risk aversion.

The Fund’s worst performer was Calix Inc., an enterprise software company that offers communications, networking, and cloud computing software and services for the telecommunications industry. Calix underperformed due to supply chain issues, a slower growth outlook, and negative investor sentiment. Another company whose performance detracted from the Fund’s return was Tower Semiconductor Ltd., an independent semiconductor foundry. Tower Semiconductor declined after Chinese regulators blocked its acquisition by Intel and the unforeseen war in Israel.

The Fund’s top performer was Kadant Inc., a technology and engineering systems supplier that benefited from healthy backlogs, diminishing headwinds, and increased infrastructure projects due to the Infrastructure Bill. The top contributor was Nextgen Healthcare Inc., a cloud-based healthcare technology company that provides software and services that help medical professionals reduce risk and automate processes. Nextgen’s shares surged after announcing that it would be acquired by a private equity firm.

Looking to 2024, we expect the higher-for-longer monetary policy outlook to continue to restrict economic growth and reduce inflation. This will continue to put a strain on consumers and companies alike. Job growth has continued, employment has remained high, and consumers have continued to spend, contributing to the strong economy despite higher mortgage and interest rates. However, the Fed is in a precarious situation. If they overtighten, they could send the economy into a recession by raising unemployment. If they ease too soon, inflation could rebound. The Fed must walk a fine line to reduce inflation to their goal, prevent it from rebounding, and support the job market.

The Fund invests in niche small-cap companies that we feel are committed to creating value for shareholders. This narrow focus generally allows for better execution, as these companies are better able to compete, be acquired, and withstand economic downturns.

Red Oak Technology Select Fund (the “Fund”) rose 26.55% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, while the S&P 500^®Equal Weight Information Technology Index gained 10.17% and the Morningstar Technology Sector Category increased 14.18%. Over the last ten years, the Fund has risen by an average of 14.46% per year.

From a market perspective, investors came into this year prepping for a hard landing after the Federal Reserve’s aggressive monetary tightening campaign. Instead, the economy and the markets have performed quite well despite challenges, such as a regional banking crisis and numerous geopolitical conflicts. Much of the strength has been consumer driven which fits with the strong employment market and solid wage gains experienced this fiscal year.

In addition to general leadership from large capitalization stocks in general and those within the Technology sector in particular, one of the prominent forces behind the rise in US equities during the fiscal year was the frenzy behind ChatGPT and the proliferation of Artificial Intelligence (AI). With advances in machine learning, software and processing power, AI has emerged as the next great technological innovation. We expect the profitability and growth characteristics of the Technology sector in this higher rate environment to attract incremental investors at the expense of sectors and companies that rely more heavily on debt markets to fund operations and new projects in the coming years.

During the fiscal year, Meta Platforms, Inc. was the best performer and largest contributor to the Fund’s fiscal year return. The parent company of Facebook underperformed the prior year due to concerns over spending on virtual reality products and development of the metaverse, but renewed fiscal discipline and a return to growth caused the shares to more than double during the fiscal year. Synopsys Inc. was also a significant contributor to performance. The company is a leader in electronic design automation software that supports the secular growth of semiconductors and benefited from increased demand driven AI.

The Fund’s largest relative underperforming stock for the year was Qualcomm, Inc., a semiconductor company that supplies technologies and products to the wireless industry. While the company has benefited from the technology transition to 5G wireless networks, weakness in demand for handsets in 2023 has caused the stock to lag behind other areas in technology. Longer term, Qualcomm appears to maintain its unique competitive advantage within the wireless handset market and is expanding into new-end markets such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) which combined, now represent close to twenty percent of revenues.

Given the significant amount of tightening already in the economic pipeline, we believe inflation has peaked and should continue to trend lower in 2024. Going forward, the Fund will continue to pursue blue-chip technology companies with dominant market positions and favorable shareholder return metrics that are trading at attractive valuations. In our opinion, higher interest rates and the resulting increased cost of capital will make these characteristics even more attractive for investors.

Portfolio Manager

Black Oak Emerging Technology Fund (the “Fund”) declined 3.34% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, while the S&P 500^®Equal Weight Information Technology Index gained 10.17% and the Morningstar Technology Sector Category increased 14.18%. Over the last ten years, the Fund has risen an average of 10.75% per year.

US equity markets saw a nice bounce during the fiscal year despite early concerns of the Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed”) aggressive interest rate hikes pushing the economy into recession. The economy has proven resilient on the back of strength in consumer spending which has benefited from a robust labor market and growth in wages. The pace of inflation has come down significantly over the past year suggesting the Fed is nearing the end of the current tightening cycle.

Despite a rally in the overall markets, strength was not distributed evenly across all stocks. To the contrary, leadership was extremely narrow within large capitalization companies while small capitalization equities underperformed across all sectors. Rising interest rates tend to have a greater impact on smaller companies as they rely more heavily on debt markets for growth and operations. On balance, emerging technology companies held by the Fund tend to be smaller or mid-sized when compared to the large capitalization technology companies.

The worst performing stock in the Fund for fiscal 2023 was SolarEdge Technologies, Inc., a company that provides solar power conversion, monitoring and storage solutions for both residential and commercial customers. After strong demand and shortages in the prior year, this year began with customers building inventory in anticipation of continued strength in new orders. However, demand slowed late in the year leaving elevated inventory levels which will take time to work down to more normal levels.

The Fund’s best performer was Nvidia Corp., which makes semiconductor chips and software for accelerated gaming and computing. Shares rose considerably during the fiscal year on the back of the excitement for Artificial Intelligence (AI) as their chips have been optimized to take advantage of this sizable market opportunity. Another beneficiary of this new technology is KLA Corp., a semiconductor capital equipment maker whose products provide test and measurement capabilities throughout the semiconductor manufacturing process.

While the majority of small capitalization companies traded lower this year, we believe that as the Fed’s monetary tightening campaign ends, the focus will shift to high quality companies regardless of size. Our approach focuses on companies with strong market positions and high levels of profitability. We naturally tend to avoid companies with high levels of leverage, or interest expense burdens, as these are often incremental constraints to diminish profits and create refinancing risk. We expect higher quality companies to distance themselves from lower quality peers as rising interest rate costs weigh on the latter in the coming years.

Going forward, the Fund will continue to seek opportunities within the technology sector exposed to emerging niches, with solid earnings prospects, and that are trading at favorable valuations.

Thank you for your investment with the Oak Associates Funds.

Live Oak Health Sciences Fund

Portfolio Manager

Live Oak Health Sciences Fund (the “Fund”) declined 5.80% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, while the S&P 500^®Health Care Index dropped 4.56% and the Morningstar Health Sector Category declined 11.04%. Over the last ten years, the Fund has risen an average of 7.73% per year.

The US economy continued to weather a storm of geopolitical conflict, economic shocks and inflation in the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023. The Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) aggressively raised interest rates over the past 17 months to combat inflation, a move that contributed to several economic disruptions, but which is potentially closer to the end of the tightening cycle. Despite these challenges, employment growth remained strong and inflation has moderated.

While the broad-based US equity market indexes posted gains during the period, the returns can be attributed to the outperformance of large-cap stocks and those associated with artificial intelligence. Healthcare, which tends to be more defensive, underperformed more cyclical sectors which rallied on evidence the Fed has suppressed inflation without inducing a sharp recession. Pockets of outperformance in healthcare were notably focused in the companies that have benefited from the introduction of new blockbuster weight-loss drugs. Despite lagging the broader market, certain areas within healthcare are poised to benefit from long-term demographic trends and offer stable revenue growth, given the consistent rise in medical costs over the past decade. This could serve as a safe haven in an inflationary environment if investors shift to defensive sectors of the market.

The Fund’s largest detractor was the Biotech company, Moderna. This company focuses on mRNA therapeutics and vaccines. The company declined due to deteriorating sales associated with the ebbing of the COVID-19 pandemic and concerns about its developmental pipeline. The Fund’s second worst performer was Bio-Rad Laboratories, a life science and diagnostic company that operates a chain of laboratories as well as manufacturing and distributing research products, clinical diagnostics, and analytical instruments. Macro headwinds such as inflation, funding constraints, and inventory backlog contributed to this year’s declines as economic predictors show slower current and future growth.

The Fund’s largest contributor to returns for the year was Cardinal Health Inc., a diversified healthcare product manufacturing and distribution provider. The Fund’s holding that had the largest impact on return was Exelixis Inc., a biotech company that focuses on developing medicines and regimens for treatment of cancer and other serious diseases. Strong product sales, increased focus on its product pipeline, and favorable court rulings led to its solid performance.

We believe the healthcare sector remains attractive due to favorable demographics, increasing frequency of chronic diseases, and unrelenting technological and scientific advancements. These drivers and the past fiscal year’s decline, present opportunities for long-term investors. The Fund maintains its focus on stable healthcare companies with solid financial positions, strong secular growth drivers, and promising earnings prospects at attractive valuations.

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The value of a Fund’s investments will vary from day to day in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. Because a Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in particular industry sectors which it believes hold the most potential for favorable returns, poor performance or adverse economic events affecting one or more of these over-weighted sectors could have a greater impact on a Fund than it would on another mutual fund with a broader range of investments.

Morningstar Health Care Category – Health portfolios focus on the medical and health-care industries. Most invest in a range of companies, buying everything from pharmaceutical and medical-device makers to HMOs, hospitals, and nursing homes. A few portfolios concentrate on just one industry segment, such as service providers or biotechnology firms.

Morningstar Large Blend Category – Large-blend portfolios are fairly representative of the overall US stock market in size, growth rates, and price. Stocks in the top 70% of the capitalization of the US equity market are defined as large-cap. The blend style is assigned to portfolios where neither growth nor value characteristics predominate. These portfolios tend to invest across the spectrum of US industries, and owing to their broad exposure, the portfolios’ returns are often similar to those of the S&P 500^® Index.

Morningstar Mid Blend Category – The typical mid-cap blend portfolio invests in US stocks of various sizes and styles, giving it a middle-of-the-road profile. Most shy away from high-priced growth stocks, but aren’t so price-conscious that they land in value territory. The US mid-cap range for market capitalization typically falls between $1billion-$8 billion and represents 20% of the total capitalization of the US equity market. The blend style is assigned to portfolios where neither growth nor value characteristics predominate.

Morningstar Small Blend Category – Small-blend portfolios favor US firms at the smaller end of the market-capitalization range. Some aim to own an array of value and growth stocks while others employ a discipline that leads to holdings with valuations and growth rates close to the small-cap averages. Stocks in the bottom 10% of the capitalization of the US equity market are defined as small-cap. The blend style is assigned to portfolios where neither growth nor value characteristics predominate.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses

As of October 31, 2023 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period from May 1, 2023 through October 31, 2023.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table for each Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading “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 for each Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balances or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the 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.

Expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the second line of the table for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1. ORGANIZATION:

The Oak Associates Funds (the “Trust”), a Massachusetts business trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), as amended, as an open-end management investment company with seven diversified funds: White Oak Select Growth Fund, Pin Oak Equity Fund, Rock Oak Core Growth Fund, River Oak Discovery Fund, Red Oak Technology Select Fund, Black Oak Emerging Technology Fund, and Live Oak Health Sciences Fund (collectively referred to as the “Funds” and individually referred to as a “Fund”). The investment objective of each Fund is to seek long-term capital growth. The assets of each Fund are segregated, and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. The Funds’ prospectus provides a description of each Fund’s investment objective, policies and strategies.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.

Regulatory Update – Tailored Shareholder Reports for Mutual Funds and Exchange-Traded Funds (“ETFs”) – Effective January 24, 2023, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in a streamlined shareholder report but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments have a compliance date of July 24, 2024. At this time, management is evaluating the impact of these amendments on the shareholder reports for the Funds.

Use of Estimates – These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Management believes the estimates and security valuations are appropriate; however, actual results may differ from those estimates, and the security valuations reflected in the financial statements may differ from the value the Funds ultimately realize upon the sale of the securities.

Security Valuation – Investments in in equity securities, which are traded on a national exchange, are stated at the last quoted sales price if readily available for such equity securities on each business day. Investments in equity securities, which are reported on the Nasdaq national market system are valued at the official closing price; other equity securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed equity securities for which no sale was reported on that date are stated at the last quoted bid price. Debt obligations exceeding sixty days to maturity for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the most recently quoted bid price. Debt obligations with sixty days or less remaining until maturity may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value, in the absence of a current quoted bid price. Investments in repurchase agreements are generally valued at par each business day.

58	Annual Report \| October 31, 2023

Notes to Financial Statements

As of October 31, 2023

Redeemable securities issued by open-end registered investment companies are valued at the investment company’s applicable net asset value (“NAV”) as determined by those funds each business day.

Securities for which market prices are not “readily available” are valued in good faith by the Funds’ adviser, Oak Associates, ltd. (“Oak” or the “Adviser”) as “valuation designee” under the oversight of the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Adviser has adopted written policies and procedures for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Adviser pursuant to its policies and procedures. On a quarterly basis, the Adviser’s fair valuation determinations will be reviewed by the Board. Oak may, in turn and subject to its oversight, delegate pricing of securities for which market prices are readily available to the Funds’ administrator. All fair valuation determinations shall be made by Oak’s Fair Value Committee (the “Committee”), in accordance with policies and procedures established by the Adviser. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using Fair Value Procedures include: the security’s trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de–listed from a national exchange; the security’s primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security’s primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; a significant event with respect to a security or securities has occurred after the close of the market or exchange on which the security or securities principally trades and before the time the Fund calculates net asset value; or trading of the security is subject to local government–imposed restrictions. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee.

Security Transactions and Investment Income – Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date) for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Withholding taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sales of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold. If applicable, any foreign capital gains taxes are accrued, net of unrealized gains, and are payable upon the sale of such investments.

Expenses – Expenses that are directly related to one of the Funds are charged to that Fund. Expenses not directly billed to a particular Fund are allocated proportionally among all Funds daily in relation to net assets of each Fund or another reasonable allocation method.

Repurchase Agreements – The Funds may invest in tri-party repurchase agreements. Securities held as collateral for tri-party repurchase agreements are maintained by the broker’s custodian bank in a segregated account until maturity of the repurchase agreement. Provisions of the repurchase agreements and procedures adopted by the Board require that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty. A custody agreement in connection with the Master Repurchase Agreement defines eligible securities for collateral in relation to each repurchase agreement. Under the Master Repurchase Agreement, if the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the counterparty enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.

Notes to Financial Statements

As of October 31, 2023

Master Agreements and Netting Arrangements – Certain Funds may participate in various repurchase agreements, such as, but not limited to Master Repurchase Agreements, which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties (collectively “Master Agreements”). These Master Agreements generally include provisions for general obligations, agreements, representations, collateral and provisions for events of default or termination. These Master Agreements also include provisions for netting arrangements that help reduce credit and counterparty risk associated with relevant transactions. The netting arrangements are generally tied to credit related events that if triggered, would cause an event of default or termination giving a Fund or counterparty the right to terminate early and cause settlement, on a net basis, of all transactions under the applicable Master Agreement. In the event of an early termination or default event, the total market value exposure would be offset against collateral exchanged to date, which would result in a net receivable or payable that would be due from or to the counterparty. Credit related events include, but are not limited to, bankruptcy, failure to make timely payments, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, a material decline in net assets, decline in credit rating or repudiation/moratorium. An election made by a counterparty to terminate a transaction early under a Master Agreement could have an adverse impact on a Fund’s financial statements. Master Agreements can also help limit counterparty risk by requiring collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Collateral under the Master Agreements is usually in the form of cash, U.S. Treasury or U.S. Government agency securities, but may include other types of securities. There can be no assurance that the Master Agreements will be successful in limiting credit or counterparty risk.

Securities Lending – The Trust has entered into a Securities Lending Agreement (“SLA”) with U.S. Bank National Association (the “Agent”). Under the terms of the SLA, the Funds may lend securities to certain broker-dealers and banks in exchange for collateral in the amount of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned or at least 105% of the value of non-U.S. securities loaned, marked to market daily. The collateral can be received in the form of cash collateral and/or non-cash collateral. Non-cash collateral can include U.S. Government Securities and letters of credit. The cash collateral is invested in the Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC (“Mount Vernon”), as noted in each lending Fund’s respective Schedule of Investments. Alternatively, at each Fund’s discretion, cash collateral may be invested in the First American Government Obligations Fund, a series of First American Funds, Inc. (“First American”). Each of First American and Mount Vernon seeks to maximize current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity; and to maintain a stable NAV of $1.00. The market value of the loaned securities is determined daily at the close of business of the Funds and any additional required collateral is delivered to each Fund on the next business day. The Funds continue to benefit from interest or dividends on the securities loaned and may also earn a return from the collateral. The Funds pay various fees in connection with the investment of cash collateral. The Funds pay the Agent fees based on the investment income received from securities lending activities. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the Funds could experience a delay in recovering its securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them. The contractual maturity of repurchase agreements are on an overnight and continuous basis. Cash and cash equivalent collateral on securities lending transactions are on an overnight and continuous basis.

As of October 31, 2023

The following is a summary of each Fund’s securities lending agreements and related cash and non-cash collateral received as of October 31, 2023:

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders – Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid to shareholders on an annual basis, as applicable. Net realized capital gains on sales of securities, if any, are distributed to shareholders at least annually. Distributions to shareholders are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Therefore, the source of the Funds’ distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either accumulated earnings, or from paid-in capital, depending upon the type of book/tax differences that may exist.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:

A three-tier hierarchy has been established to classify fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable and unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on the best information available.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. The designated input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with these investments. These inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:

The three-tier hierarchy is summarized as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date, including but not limited to:

Equity Securities – investments for which market quotations are readily available that are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded.

Investment Companies – investments in open-end registered investment companies which are valued at their closing NAV.

1-888-462-5386 | www.oakfunds.com

Notes to Financial Statements

As of October 31, 2023

Level 2 – Quoted prices which are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities inactive markets or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable (either directly or indirectly) for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, including but not limited to:

Repurchase Agreements – investments in overnight tri-party repurchase agreements which are valued at par.

All Securities – quoted prices for similar securities, including matrix pricing; quoted prices based on recently executed transactions; adjusted quoted prices based on observable and formulaic inputs; or, prices using other observable correlated market inputs.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable prices or inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) where there is little or no market activity for the asset and liability at the measurement date, including but not limited to:

All Securities – modeling or manual pricing based on the Adviser’s own assumptions in determining fair value of investments; or, the significant use of other unobservable or very stale inputs within fair valuation.

Certain investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been categorized in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts presented in the table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

The above tables are presented by levels of disaggregation for each asset class. For detailed descriptions of the underlying industries, see the accompanying Schedules of Investments. There were no Level 3 securities held during the period.

4. FEES AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

The Trust and the Adviser are parties to an Investment Advisory Agreement, under which the Adviser receives an annual fee equal to 0.74% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. The Adviser has contractually agreed through February 28, 2024 to waive all or a portion of its fees (and to reimburse the Funds’ expenses if necessary) in order to limit Fund total operating expenses to not more than 1.25% of the average daily net assets of White Oak Select Growth Fund, Pin Oak Equity Fund, Rock Oak Core Growth Fund and River Oak Discovery Fund and 1.35% of the average daily net assets of Red Oak Technology Select Fund, Black Oak Emerging Technology Fund and Live Oak Health Sciences Fund.

The following table lists the contractual advisory fees and fee waivers that were in effect during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023:

Under the terms of a Distribution Agreement with the Trust, Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as the principal underwriter to each Fund. The Distributor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultimus. The Distributor is compensated by the Adviser (not the Funds) for acting as principal underwriter.

Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are also officers of the Adviser, Ultimus and/or the Distributor. Such officers are paid no fees by the Trust for serving as officers or trustees to the Trust.

5. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS:

6. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES AND TAX BASIS INFORMATION:

Each of the Funds is classified as a separate taxable entity for Federal income tax purposes. Each of the Funds has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a separate “regulated investment company” under Sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and make the requisite distributions to shareholders that will be sufficient to relieve it from Federal income tax and Federal excise tax. Therefore, no Federal tax provision is required.

The amounts of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. The character of dividends from net investment income or distributions from net realized gains made during the year, and the timing may differ from the year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the Funds. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate equity accounts in the period that the differences arise. These differences are primarily due to differences in the treatment of net operating losses, utilization of earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemptions of shares, non-deductible expenses from partnerships, return of capital, and certain other investments.

Management evaluates the Funds’ tax positions to determine if the taken tax positions meet the minimum recognition threshold by measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the Financial Statements. The threshold is established by accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions, taken or expected. Recognition of tax benefits of an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (current and prior three tax years) and has concluded that as of and for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, no provision for income tax would be required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years (current and prior three tax years) for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

7. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND OWNERSHIP:

As of October 31, 2023, Live Oak Health Sciences Fund invested greater than 25% of its net assets in securities in the Health Care sector. As of October 31, 2023, Pin Oak Equity Fund, Rock Oak Core Growth Fund, River Oak Discovery Fund, Red Oak Technology Select Fund and Black Oak Emerging Technology Fund invested greater than 25% of their net assets in securities in the Technology sector. Therefore, each of these Funds may be more affected by economic developments in those sectors than a general equity fund would be.

68	Annual Report \| October 31, 2023

Notes to Financial Statements

As of October 31, 2023

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be established; however based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.

From time to time, the Funds may have a concentration of several shareholders holding a significant percentage of shares outstanding. Investment activities of these shareholders could have a material impact on the Fund.

As of October 31, 2023, the Vanita B. Oelschlager Trust owned 32.58% of Rock Oak Core Growth Fund and the James D. Oelschlager Trust owned 35.62% of River Oak Discovery Fund.

8. TRUSTEE AND OFFICERS FEES:

As of October 31, 2023, there were five Trustees, four of whom are not “interested persons” (within the meaning of the 1940 Act) of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”). Each Independent Trustee receives a retainer at an annual rate of $30,000 per year. Each Independent Trustee is also paid a fee of $3,500 for each meeting of the Board attended or participated in person, and/or is also paid $1,000 per attendance at each telephonic Board meeting, as applicable. Each Independent Trustee is paid $4,000 per telephonic or in-person meeting at which they receive and review preliminary materials provided in connection with the annual continuation of the advisory agreement in accordance with Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act. The chairperson of the Audit Committee receives an additional retainer of $1,000 per calendar quarter during which an Audit Committee Meeting is held and the Lead Independent Trustee receives an additional retainer of $3,500 per calendar quarter.

The Independent Trustees who do not serve as chairpersons of the applicable Board committee are not paid an additional fee from the Trust for attendance at and/or participation in such meetings of the various committees of the Board. The Independent Trustees are also reimbursed for meeting-related expenses. Officers of the Trust and Trustees who are interested persons of the Trust receive no salary or fees from the Trust, although they may be reimbursed for meeting-related expenses.

9. INDEMNIFICATIONS:

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with service providers that may contain general indemnification clauses, which may permit indemnification to the extent permissible under applicable law. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

Management has evaluated events or transactions from October 31, 2023, through the date these financial statements were issued, that would merit recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. There were no other subsequent events to report that would have a material impact to the Funds’ financial statements.

Oak Associates Funds

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Oak Associates Funds comprising White Oak Select Growth Fund, Pin Oak Equity Fund, Rock Oak Core Growth Fund, River Oak Discovery Fund, Red Oak Technology Select Fund, Black Oak Emerging Technology Fund, and Live Oak Health Sciences Fund (the “Funds”) as of October 31, 2023, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the funds as of October 31, 2023, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in 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.

Basis for Opinion

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

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2023, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Funds’ auditor since 2009.
