Annual Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholder,

Equity markets delivered healthy gains during the reporting period despite a rise in volatility that crept into the markets at the tail-end of the summer. The S&P 500 Index, a broad measure of the market, finished our fiscal year in positive territory gaining 14.56%. Energy and materials sectors led the markets, as many commodities rallied amidst increasing worldwide demand, investor speculation, and geopolitical fears of supply disruptions. Financial services and consumer discretionary were the worst performing groups over the reporting period. The weakening U.S. housing market and the fallout from the subprime lending crisis subdued the earnings outlook of these sectors.

While our outlook for equities in general is favorable, we are mindful of recent developments in the credit and fixed income markets. Years of “reaching for yield” coupled with reduced credit standards has created stress across the entire lending industry. Increasing numbers of consumers are simply not able to make timely payments on their borrowed money. This stress is making credit less available as lenders tighten underwriting standards.

We believe the growth and stability of our economy is increasingly dependent on a healthy lending system. With increased loan delinquencies, charge-offs, and write downs, we must be prepared to weather the negative economic consequences. We anticipate the period ahead will be challenging, but full of opportunities. We look to take advantage of the eventual recovery in credit conditions which will lead to an improved outlook for the economy and earnings growth.

A number of noteworthy internal events took place this fiscal year. First, we have begun to consolidate our fund administration and custodial service providers. The results of these actions should be realized in the form of reduced shareholder costs in the years ahead. Second, we reopened our very successful FBR Small Cap Fund (FBRVX) to all investors in January 2007. We have repositioned the Fund by changing its name to the FBR Focus Fund, effective November 1, 2007, and removing any reference to market capitalizations in the investment policy, which takes effect January 1, 2008. Third, we have expanded our marketing and distribution capabilities in an effort to increase the awareness and visibility of our products across the entire marketplace.

Finally, in February 2007 we further diversified our product offerings with the launch of two new Funds, the Pegasus Mid Cap (FBRMX) and Pegasus Small Cap (FBRYX) Funds. We are pleased with the initial performance of these Funds which we attribute to our disciplined value approach to investing. We believe that our commitment to this approach over multiple market cycles, regardless of market sector and capitalization, will be a crucial factor in producing solid long-term results.

Our investing process and philosophy remain well anchored. We are investors in companies, not traders of stocks. We do not attempt to time the latest market trends or fads. We believe that superior equity returns are driven by consistent and growing profitability. Consistent and growing profits begin with conservative accounting, aversion to debt, a low cost operating structure, a simple business model and an overall philosophy of building for the long-term.

As in prior years, what follows is a discussion from each of our portfolio managers with respect to their Fund’s performance over our fiscal year and their outlook going forward.

All of us at The FBR Funds want to thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to serving your investment needs in the years ahead.

FBR Pegasus Fund^TM
Management Overview

Portfolio Manager: Robert C. Barringer, CFA and Ryan Kelley, CFA

Over the recent fiscal year, how did the Fund perform?

For the one-year period ended October 31, 2007, the FBR Pegasus Fund^TM returned 17.52%. This compares to the Lipper Multi-Cap Value Fund Index and the S&P 500 Index, which returned 9.33% and 14.56% for the same period respectively.

What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?

During the past year, our Fund benefited from its exposure to the information technology, energy, materials, and industrial sectors. Specifically, energy and materials continued to perform very well this year for us. Additionally, the Fund benefited from its underexposure to all four of the worst performing sectors of the broader market, namely the consumer discretionary, consumer staples, financial, and health care sectors.

Financials were the largest drag on the market this year, given the difficult operating environment created by challenged credit and housing markets. We began the year overweight financials, and significantly reduced our exposure in May and June from approximately 25% of the portfolio to 17% and eventually down to 14% as of the end of October. The S&P 500 financial sector peaked during the last week of May, roughly concurrent with the beginning of our reduction in exposure to the sector. As of the end of the fiscal year, we are approximately 25% underweight financials relative to the S&P 500 Index.

Our disciplined stock selection process and attention to sector exposure continues to drive our Fund’s out performance. For example, while we were underweight consumer stocks, the S&P 500’s second worst performing sector, two of the Fund’s top performing stocks for the year were categorized as consumer discretionary stocks, one tied to education services and one to electronics.

What is the outlook for the Fund?

We remain enthusiastic about the outlook for the Fund. As demonstrated above, our disciplined and consistent investment process and ability to under- or over-weight specific sectors of the market, allows us to maintain our long-term orientation and construct a well-rounded and balanced portfolio. Our focus on stocks with sound business models, improving fundamentals and attractive valuations affords us the confidence to make investments within underperforming sectors and avoid market bubbles, while preserving capital in declining markets.

Currently, we are invested in certain segments of the market that have been largely in favor this year: large-cap companies, technology companies, companies tied to hard assets and utilities. We believe that our investments in the financial and consumer discretionary sectors are positioned to benefit from the eventual recovery in credit conditions. In addition, we currently have higher than normal levels of cash, which will allow us to

The FBR Funds

FBR Pegasus Mid Cap Fund^TM
Management Overview

Portfolio Manager: Ryan Kelley, CFA

Over the recent fiscal year, how did the Fund perform?

For the period from the Fund’s inception on February 28, 2007 to October 31, 2007, the FBR Pegasus Mid Cap Fund^TM returned 13.00%. This compares to the Lipper Mid-Cap Core Fund Index and the Russell Midcap Index, which returned 8.71% and 7.44% for the same period respectively.

What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?

The inception date of the Pegasus Mid Cap Fund, February 28, 2007, coincided with a strong downturn in the overall market. We patiently began to make investments during the early March downturn as opportunities presented themselves. A recovery in the broad equity market ensued and lasted through the end of our fiscal year. The Fund outperformed its indices during this time, leading to our strong inception-to-date performance record.

We attribute our Fund’s out performance as much to the stocks and sectors that we did not own as to those we did. The Fund benefited from a lack of exposure to the two worst performing sectors of the market, namely the consumer discretionary and financial sectors. Financials lagged the broader market given the difficult operating environment caused by challenged credit and housing markets, while the market remained concerned about the consumer’s ability and desire to continue spending robustly. Interestingly, though, two of our top ten performing stocks were categorized as consumer discretionary companies, including an auto parts producer and a turnaround department store.

Our exposure to the materials and industrial sectors also contributed to our strong performance. These two sectors were the second and third best performing sectors of the market for the reporting period. Four of the Fund’s top ten performing stocks were categorized within these two sectors. While we were underweight the best performing sector, energy, many of the Fund’s energy investments made significant positive contributions to overall performance.

What is the outlook for the Fund?

We believe that the outlook for our Fund remains attractive. As shown above, our balanced approach to portfolio management and our ability to under- or over-weight specific sectors of the market allow us to manage the portfolio for the long-term while performing well compared to our peers. Our stock selection process leads us to find certain companies within a potentially underperforming sector that have productive business economics and a sound financial condition.

We strive to provide solid long-term returns for our shareholders while protecting against the downside and exhibiting a lower level of volatility. Throughout the first eight-months,

The FBR Funds

FBR Pegasus Mid Cap Fund^TM
Management Overview (continued)

the Fund outperformed the Russell Midcap Index in two out of every three days that the index was down. Furthermore, our downside capture percent was approximately 80%, meaning that for every 1% drop in the index, the Fund only moved down approximately 0.80%. We continue to aim for these types of metrics, which become integral parts of our stock selection process.

Currently, we are invested in segments of the market that have been largely in favor this year; technology companies and companies tied to hard assets. While still underweight in the consumer discretionary and financial sectors, we believe that we own certain stocks within those sectors that will benefit from any turnaround in 2008. In addition, we currently have higher than normal levels of cash with which to take advantage of price dips of our favorite stocks. Overall, we are confident in our investment process and in our Fund’s position as we head into 2008.

The FBR Funds

FBR Pegasus Small Cap Fund^TM
Management Overview

Portfolio Manager: Robert C. Barringer, CFA

Over the recent fiscal year, how did the Fund perform?

For the period from the Fund’s inception on February 28, 2007 to October 31, 2007, the FBR Pegasus Small Cap Fund^TM returned 18.50%. This compares to the Lipper Small-Cap Growth Fund Index and the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 14.78% and 5.22% for the same period respectively.

What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?

The Pegasus Small Cap Fund commenced operations four-months after the beginning of our fiscal year on February 28, 2007. As a result, the performance of the Fund and its relevant indices reflects the eight months ended October 31, 2007, not the entire fiscal year.

In the first half of the year, small-cap valuations were supported by the continuation of takeover and private equity speculation. The Fund participated in the M&A activity as a handful of portfolio companies agreed to be acquired, such as Webex Communications, Hyperion Solutions, Chapparal Steel and International Securities Exchange. It is not our intention to construct a portfolio based on the prospects of a company being acquired. However, ownership of takeover candidates is a natural byproduct of our investment philosophy, which focuses on owning stocks with sound business models, improving fundamentals and attractive valuations. Sometimes our investment process leads us to companies that strategic buyers or private equity investors find attractive for the very same attributes that we value.

The Fund benefited from its lack of exposure to the hardest hit areas in the financial and consumer related sectors of the market relative to its benchmark. At the same time, strong stock selection allowed the Fund to own a distinct group of solid performing companies across a variety of market sectors. We attribute our solid near-term performance to our disciplined, fundamental value approach to investing.

What is the outlook for the Fund and the small cap sector?

We believe that the long-term outlook for small-caps remains strong despite the expectation for a lower return environment and the resurgence of investor interest in high quality large-cap multi-national companies. This year, certain sectors and industries have been particularly hard hit, such as companies engaged in mortgage related activities. This backdrop has led to general fears surrounding the sustainability of consumer spending and its impact on the growth of the economy.

Even in the face of moderating economic growth, we continue to believe there are always opportunities to uncover attractive investment opportunities in the small-cap segment of the market. The investment approach employed to manage the Fund attempts to consistently

The FBR Funds

Management Overview (continued)

identify companies with strong balance sheets, high levels of free cash flow, and reasonable valuations that have a chance to grow at an above average secular growth rate over a longer period of time.

In times of higher volatility, careful stock selection becomes a critical factor in producing consistent long-term results. We believe continued market volatility into 2008 and our disciplined investment process will provide us with many opportunities to buy a wide range of outstanding small-cap businesses at attractive prices.

The FBR Funds

FBR Large Cap Financial Fund
Management Overview

Portfolio Manager: David Ellison

Over the recent fiscal year, how did the Fund perform?

For the one-year period ended October 31, 2007, the FBR Large Cap Financial Fund returned -4.59%. This compares to the Lipper Financial Services Fund Index and the S&P 500 Index, which returned -1.18% and 14.56% for the same period respectively.

What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?

Large-cap financial stocks performed poorly relative to the broad market during the reporting period, and the FBR Large Cap Financial Fund was not immune to this underperformance.

Operating conditions in the industry deteriorated during the period. The primary driver was the slowing housing market, which negatively impacted credit trends. Most companies are seeing rising mortgage delinquencies, which is impacting earnings as these loans stop making payments and possibly enter foreclosure. These negative credit trends have also impacted many of the complex securities you have been hearing about in the news. These so called complex securities are nothing more than a bundle of loans that are going delinquent and/or entering foreclosure.

Adding to the reversal in credit was the increasing use of leverage and short-term funding to purchase these loan assets over the last few years. As leverage rises and the funding becomes more short-term, the room for error decreases and the risk of loss upon reversal of favorable conditions grows. With these favorable conditions reversing, risks have become apparent and have impacted the earnings outlook.

The participants in the market have recently grown fearful that excessive leverage and declining credit will produce a flood of financial bankruptcies. This fear has added volatility to the stock prices and lowered valuations relative to the company’s earnings and book value.

As I have said many times, I believe that credit and interest rate trends are the two primary factors that drive earnings in the financial space. Over the last year, interest rate changes have been somewhat favorable, but have been overwhelmed by deteriorating credit conditions and, in some cases, excessive leverage that has been well reported by the popular press.

In sum, over the last year negative earnings pressure has developed and the stocks have followed.

What is the outlook for the Fund and the financial services sector?

As I have outlined above, favorable credit trends have reversed, and the industry is under real earnings pressure for the first time in at least ten years.

The FBR Funds

FBR Large Cap Financial Fund
Management Overview (continued)

Bad credit conditions do a number of unfortunate things to earnings. First, the loan stops paying and the interest earned before is no longer earned. Second, the company must spend time and money trying to get the customer to begin making payments again, and if that fails, spend even more money on lawyers taking the customer to foreclosure. Third, once the bank takes the house from the delinquent owner, it has to arrange to pay the taxes and insurance, mow the lawn, rake the leaves, and pay for heat and other sundry costs. Finally, the bank has to employ a broker to sell the house and this broker will need to be paid.

While bad credit conditions are increasing the costs, they are also adversely impacting management’s outlook. The industry’s response to these rising costs has been to tighten lending standards and make fewer loans to keep bad credit costs from growing further. We are seeing signs of credit tightening all around us, which has the effect of making things worse in the short-run. I believe we have an economy built on credit, and when credit is made less available after being overly abundant (like the last three years), the industry and possibly the overall economy will suffer in the near-term.

While the short-run will be difficult, a long-run opportunity in the financial sector is developing. With all the bad news concerning credit come the seeds for a recovery in credit conditions. Managements are, as you read this, correcting the mistakes of the last few years and watering the seeds of better credit trends in the future. The only open question is what the timing will be. How long will it take to fully reveal the credit losses and associated costs? My goal is to position the Fund to take advantage of this credit turn over the long-run, while protecting against possible further downside through the near-term.

The FBR Funds

FBR Large Cap Technology Fund

Management Overview

Portfolio Manager: David Ellison and Winsor Aylesworth

Over the recent fiscal year, how did the Fund perform?

For the one-year period ended October 31, 2007, the FBR Large Cap Technology Fund returned 15.18%. This compares to the S&P 500 Index, the Lipper Science & Technology Fund Index and the NASDAQ Composite Index, which returned 14.56%, 29.71% and 21.75% for the same period respectively.

What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?

For the first time in the Fund’s five year history, our performance was disappointing. Although the absolute return in excess of 15% is meaningful, our performance did not compare favorably against the Fund’s more traditional technology benchmarks. In hindsight, our conservative buy/sell process with an emphasis on valuation resulted in us selling many large-cap companies too early. Again, in hindsight, this resulted in a higher than average portfolio turnover as we reinvested the sale proceeds in more reasonably priced opportunities.

A couple of our investments did exceptionally well for the Fund. One was our investment in Apple Computer. As one of the leading consumer technology companies, Apple continues to have an outstanding record of growing its tangible book value with little or no leverage on its balance sheet. Apple’s ability to generate excitement and launch new products bodes well for continued growth.

Another investment or investment theme that did exceptionally well in 2007 was the technology sector’s response to the global warming dialogue. Our investment in the relatively young solar power industry has rewarded us well, as this industry grows with the increased demand for its products. A more subtle play has been our investment in the well established diesel engine manufacturer, Cummins Engine. By applying new technologies to a proven manufacturing process, their diesel engines have become more fuel-efficient and reliable while reducing emissions. These are two examples of how technological innovations are being applied to solve everyday problems.

What is the outlook for the Fund and the technology sector?

In reviewing last year’s letter, we said that the Fund was positioned to participate in any rally while providing downside protection in a market correction. While we did participate, there is always room for improvement. Since investing should be looked at over the long-term, we think the downside protection of owning well-capitalized, low leveraged, growing companies at reasonable valuations will reward investors over a full market cycle.

Although we can not predict the direction of the economy, which will always have periods of growth and correction, it is important to remember that it is the technology sector that

produces both the new products that consumers crave and the solutions that we all need to resolve the world’s problems. To that end, we think an investment in the Fund should reward investors over the long-term.

We thank you for being a fellow investor.

FBR Focus Fund
Management Overview

Investment Sub Adviser: Akre Capital Management, LLC

Portfolio Manager: Charles T. Akre, Jr.

In our last letter, we reported that the Fund’s large cash position could hinder short-term results in an up market, and help results in a down market. Since then, credit and housing problems have taken center stage and the stock market’s direction has been decidedly down. By reopening the Fund in January, we were fortunate to have the opportunity to build cash for just such a situation.

In our experience, it is during periods of economic and market distress that investors can create the most value. Great businesses can go from overvalued, to undervalued, to throwaway prices that could never be imagined in better times. We do not know what the coming year holds for the market and economy, but believe that we are well positioned to take advantage of opportunities with nearly 25% of the Fund in cash. We are beginning to see attractively valued companies for the first time in a long time, and we have begun judiciously adding stocks to the portfolio.

The market downturn that created the aforementioned opportunities also impacted a few of our portfolio holdings during calendar 2007. We own several companies with revenues tied to the domestic housing and consumer sectors whose share prices have reflected the current negative sentiment associated with these sectors. Our positive contributors included our long-term holding, Penn National Gaming, which announced it would be acquired in June 2007. As always, we focus on business fundamentals and corresponding valuations and at times will invest in sectors which may be out of favor. (For complete information concerning the Fund’s performance during the reporting period, please see the performance chart and table which follows this discussion)

Since our last report, we (Akre Capital Management in concurrence with The FBR Funds) have chosen to change the name of the FBR Small Cap Fund to the FBR Focus Fund, effective November 1, 2007. By removing any reference to market capitalization in the prospectus, effective January 1, 2008, we will be freed from restrictions that limited our ability to maintain cash balances and make investment decisions that we think are best for shareholders. Further, we think that the new name better represents one of the more distinctive aspects of the Fund – its concentrated portfolio of our top ideas.

Some investors have been confused by our name change, and the lack of investment restrictions that the change implies. We want to be clear that it is “business as usual” for the Fund. We are strict adherents to the investment philosophy and research process that have served us so well to this point. We remain focused on a very select group of outstanding small- and mid-cap companies that we believe are likely to grow intrinsic value at above average rates for many years to come.

The FBR Funds

FBR Focus Fund
Management Overview (continued)

Please note that we wrote “small- and mid-cap” companies. Despite the prior Fund name, we have never been restricted to owning only small-cap stocks. Our charter has always permitted that 20% of the Fund’s net assets could be invested in companies with market caps above three billion dollars. Our new charter removes this 20% restriction, which we had been bumping up against for some time due to appreciation of many key holdings.

At Akre Capital Management we remain shareholders of the Fund for not only our own accounts, but also for the accounts of many of our family members. Our aggregate holdings are squarely in the seven figure range. Our goal remains unchanged, and that is to compound our shareholders’ capital at above average rates with below average risk.

In our mid year letter, we suggested that we might ask to close the Fund sometime soon. Given the current investment environment, we see no reason to request a close.

FBR Small Cap Financial Fund

Management Overview

Portfolio Manager: David Ellison

Over the recent fiscal year, how did the Fund perform?

For the one-year period ended October 31, 2007, the FBR Small Cap Financial Fund returned -18.02%. This compares to the Lipper Financial Services Fund Index and the Russell 2000 Index, which returned -1.18% and 9.27% for the same period respectively.

What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?

Small-cap financial stocks performed poorly relative to the market during the period and the Fund was not immune to this underperformance. The Fund performed quite poorly during the period, due primarily to its historical exposure to traditional mortgage lenders. This subset of the financial sector has been extremely hard hit by the negative trends that started to develop over the summer, which are described below and have been written about in abundance lately in the media. While I am disappointed in the Fund’s performance over the past year, I believe the Fund is positioned to benefit from the recovery that will develop in the mortgage market over the long-term.

Operating conditions in the industry deteriorated during the period. The primary driver was the slowing housing market, which negatively impacted credit trends and loan growth. Most companies are seeing rising mortgage delinquencies, which are negatively impacting earnings as these loans stop paying and possibly enter foreclosure. Loan originations have also slowed in response to these negative credit trends, and are impacting the near term growth outlook for the sector.

Adding to the reversal in credit was the increasing use of leverage and short-term funding to purchase these loan assets over the last few years. As leverage rises and the funding becomes more short-term, the room for error decreases and the risk of loss upon reversal of favorable conditions becomes significant. With these favorable conditions now reversing, risks have become apparent and have impacted the earnings outlook.

In sum, over the last year, earnings and growth have been negatively impacted and the stocks have followed.

What is the outlook for the Fund and the financial services sector?

As I have outlined above, favorable credit trends have reversed, and the industry is under real earnings pressure for the first time in at least ten years.

The FBR Funds

FBR Small Cap Financial Fund

Management Overview (continued)

While bad credit conditions are increasing the costs, they are also adversely impacting management’s outlook. The industry’s response to these rising costs has been to tighten lending standards and make fewer loans to keep bad credit costs from growing further. We are seeing signs of credit tightening all around us, which has the effect of making things worse in the short-run. I believe we have an economy built on credit, and when credit is made less available after being overly abundant (like the last three years) the industry and possibly the overall economy will suffer in the near-term.

While the short-run will be difficult, a long-run opportunity in the financial sector is developing. With all the bad news concerning credit come the seeds for a recovery in credit. Managements are, as you read this, correcting the mistakes of the last few years and watering the seeds of better credit trends in the future. The only open question is what the timing will be. How long will it take to fully reveal the credit losses and associated costs? My goal is to position the Fund to take advantage of this credit turn over the long-run, while protecting against possible further downside through the near-term.

The FBR Funds

FBR Small Cap Technology Fund

Management Overview

Portfolio Manager: Robert C. Barringer, CFA

Over the recent fiscal year, how did the Fund perform?

For the one-year period ended October 31, 2007, the Fund returned 25.06%. This compares to the Lipper Science & Technology Fund Index, the NASDAQ Composite Index and the Russell 2500 Technology Index, which returned 29.71%, 21.75% and 20.83% for the same period, respectively.

What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?

One of the largest factors contributing to the Fund’s solid performance was its overweight position in the software industry relative to the Russell 2500 Technology Index. This industry was one of the strongest performing segments of the technology sector due to continued strength in consumer and corporate spending and increased merger and acquisition activity. These factors have driven valuations to healthy levels and elevated the premiums paid to acquire the targeted technology companies. The Fund owned a number of the small-cap companies that benefited from these trends.

According to Morningstar, there are over three hundred specialty-technology mutual funds that collectively manage investor assets in excess of $33.1 billion. This universe is dominated by funds that invest in large-cap technology companies. For example, the average market cap of the 30 funds that comprise the Lipper Science & Technology Fund Index is over $21 billion. The Fund, which focuses on investments in technology companies with market caps below $3 billion, had an average market cap of $2.3 billion at the close of the reporting period. Generally, the large-cap companies, such as Google and Apple, outperformed their small-cap counterparts over the past year, as investors shifted focus to high quality, liquid multi-nationals. As a result, the Fund trailed the overall Lipper category average.

What is the outlook for the Fund and the small cap technology sector?

We continue to look for and invest in companies with strong margins, high returns on equity, solid balance sheets and good cash flow. Most importantly, we are not willing to pay-up for the combination of these characteristics, so valuations have to be reasonable as well. We believe that the technology sector will continue to be a relative safe haven for growth investors, especially as worries about the subprime mortgage crisis and the declining housing market directly impacted the financial and consumer discretionary sectors. Corporate spending on technology should remain healthy, as most companies outside of the financial services arena are in good financial shape and thus more apt to spend. However, moderating economic growth could begin to slow corporate earnings and directly impact the current levels of capital expenditures on technology. With that in mind, we enter the coming year with more tempered expectations and will continue to position the portfolio accordingly.

The FBR Funds

FBR Small Cap Technology Fund

Management Overview (continued)

Longer term, our confidence in the technology sector as an asset class remains high. We firmly believe that the Fund’s disciplined value-based investment process will allow us to uncover companies with attractive business economics that are leveraged to participate in the development of the innovations necessary to improve productivity across all areas of the economy.

FBR Gas Utility Index Fund
Management Overview

Portfolio Manager: Winsor Aylesworth

Over the recent fiscal year, how did the Fund perform?

For the one-year period ended October 31, 2007, the FBR Gas Utility Index Fund returned 21.51%. This compares to the American Gas Association (AGA) Stock Index, the Lipper Utility Fund Index and the S&P 500 Index which returned 20.09%, 25.68% and 14.56% for the same period respectively.

What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?

The Fund continues its history of tracking the AGA Stock Index, underperforming against broader based utility indices and outperforming the S&P. On an absolute basis, I am very pleased that this collection of natural gas utility companies provided such a robust return, in excess of 20% for this fiscal year. In reviewing recent shareholder communiqués, many common themes we have previously discussed continue to exist. First, the Fund’s underperformance relative to the Lipper Utility Fund Index continues to be a factor of Index composition. The AGA Stock Index limits itself to natural gas utilities that are members of the American Gas Association. Other utility benchmarks, including the aforementioned Lipper index, contain water, telephone and other non-gas related utilities. So the comparison is really somewhat an “apples vs. oranges” one. I suspect this “composition” difference will continue in the future with periods of both positive and negative comparisons. The slight out performance of the Fund against the AGA Stock Index is not a trend or theme rather it is a result of managing the cash balances of the Fund and the timing of investment transactions.

The other themes that we generally discuss are the weather and the economy, two major influences on the earnings and hence the stock performance of the Fund’s companies.

For the year ended October 31, 2007, no major hurricanes or storms impacted the natural gas industry. Rather than focusing on specific events, the industry became more concerned about the issue of “climate change” and its impact on earnings. Various parts of our country experienced below average rainfall and above average temperatures. Above average temperatures are a boon for utilities in the summer, as demand for air-conditioning increases; they are not desirable in the winter as they reduce demand for heating. As a country, we continue to debate whether this recent pattern is simply a short-term fluctuation or long-term trend due to global warming. The impact of all of this on the utility industry, and hence stock prices, is uncertain. As one of the cleanest fuels, natural gas is certainly going to play a key role as we deal with this major issue.

The U.S. economy over the last twelve months has experienced modest growth. One issue that has arisen is the decoupling of the wholesale price for fuel oil (which is increasing) from the wholesale price of Natural Gas (which remains stable or is decreasing). This has resulted in tight fuel oil supplies, but ample supplies of natural gas going into our winter heating season. The ample supply situation and stable price of natural gas should remove

some of the uncertainty and business risk for our portfolio of companies, and hence be a positive factor for the Fund. The other major economic “story” is the subprime mortgage crisis and the decline of the housing market. One positive impact of this for the Fund has been the resulting decline of interest rates, making our group of dividend paying companies more attractive to the investing public.

What is the outlook for the Fund and the utility sector?

As always, the outlook for the sector continues to be dependent on weather and the economy. The housing issues facing the economy will engender some off-setting consequences. We expect that housing starts, a major source of growth for our companies, will be significantly reduced in 2008. The continued weakness in the housing market will be a negative factor for the Fund. On the other hand, if interest rates continue to decline, the stocks of our companies should react positively due to their dividend component. The weather, as always, continues to be unpredictable and could have a positive or negative influence.

So with this uncertainty, what is an investor to do? I would derive comfort knowing that your investment in the Fund has historically done well over the long-term, that the utility sector is generally conservative and is deemed to be defensive (modifies market swings), and that the Fund is comprised of a well diversified portfolio of dividend paying companies that all have the opportunity for capital appreciation.

We thank you for being a fellow investor.

FBR Fund for Government Investors
Management Overview

Portfolio Manager: William Barlow Sanders, III

Over the recent fiscal year, how did the Fund perform?

For one year period ended October 31, 2007, the FBR Fund for Government Investors (FGI) returned 4.46%.

What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?

Typically, August is a fairly quiet time in the markets. Volumes are low with Wall Street and almost everyone else away from the office winding down their summer vacations. This August, however, the liquidity/sub-prime bomb exploded and dramatically changed the landscape of the credit markets. The days of easy credit and lax lending standards came grinding to a halt. Due to the resulting turmoil and disruption in the credit markets the Federal Open Market Committee (the “Fed”) was forced to cut the discount rate to 5.75% in an unscheduled meeting on August 17, and suddenly changed their economic assessment to “downside risks to growth”. This was followed with Fed Funds Target rate cuts of 0.50% to 4.75% at the scheduled September meeting and an additional 0.25% cut to 4.50% at the October meeting. So, in three months, the Fed’s economic assessment has gone from “Inflation Risk” at their August 7^th scheduled meeting, to “downside risks to growth” (Aug. 17 meeting), to “some inflation risk” (Sept. 18^th meeting), to “balanced” (Oct. 31^st meeting).

There is plenty of blame to go around for the lending/leveraging frenzy of the past several years that has gotten us in to this predicament: the Fed for keeping rates too low for too long, insufficient government oversight/regulation, bond rating agencies asleep at the wheel, unscrupulous borrowers and lenders, real estate speculators, and Wall Street for securitizing pools of loans as fast as it could and selling them to hedge funds, pension funds, and anyone else trying to get a juicy yield both here and abroad. There are no silver bullets or quick fixes for this problem which the markets are clumsily trying to work through.

Unfortunately, despite the Fed cuts and hundreds of billions of dollars and euros injected into the financial system by both the Fed and European Central Bank, as well as other central banks worldwide, the liquidity crunch is now back at summer peaks and by some measures worse.

What is the outlook for the Fund?

To say the Fed has a lot on its plate now might be the understatement of the century. The Fed may say they now see their economic assessment as “balanced” but in our minds, and in the opinion of many, the economy is tilting towards a recession. Most believe that more rate cuts are coming, even at the expense of the US dollar. Ironically, the weakening US dollar could help avert or soften a recession as it makes our goods cheaper abroad. As domestic demand decreases exports have increased. Many eyes are on the US consumer this holiday season because if he/she pulls back on spending - there goes the real

driver of our economy. The back-end of this credit cycle is much different than ones we have been through in the past. The Fed is trying to navigate the economy through uncharted waters in heavy fog and very rough seas.

Regardless of what the Fed does next, the Fund will stay with our conservative investment style of owning only the highest quality and most liquid government issued/sponsored securities.

Schedule of Shareholder Expenses

(unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including reinvested dividends or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees; distribution (12b-1) 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 (May 1, 2007 through October 31, 2007).

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table on the following page 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 the Six Months Ended October 31, 2007”to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table on the following page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratio 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 balance 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.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the Funds’ significant accounting policies:

Portfolio Valuation — The net asset value per share (“NAV”) of each Fund is determined as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each business day that the exchange is open for trading. Each Fund’s securities are valued at the last sale price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities that are quoted by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Securities not listed on an exchange or national securities market, or securities in which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and ask prices, except in the case of open short positions where the ask price is used for valuation purposes. The bid price is used when no ask price is available. Short-term investments are carried at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Restricted securities, as well as securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available, or are not valued by a pricing service approved by the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”), are valued at fair value in good faith by, or at the direction of, the Board.

The FBR Funds

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the application of this Statement relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. As of October 31, 2007, the Funds do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements, however, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements reported on the statement of changes in net assets for a fiscal period.

Share Valuation — The NAV of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by each Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares outstanding of each Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. Each Fund’s shares will not be priced on the days on which the NYSE is closed for trading. The offering and redemption price per share of each Fund is equal to each Fund’s NAV. The Funds, except for the Money Market Fund, charge a 1% redemption fee on shares redeemed or exchanged within 90 days of purchase. These fees are deducted from the redemption proceeds otherwise payable to the shareholder. The Funds will retain the fee charged as paid-in capital and such fees become part of that Fund’s daily NAV calculation.

Investment Income — Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, which includes the amortization of premium and accretion of discount, if any, is recorded on an accrual basis.

Expenses — The Funds pay all operational expenses, which are either charged directly to a Fund for which the expense is attributable or are allocated proportionately among the Funds based on allocation methods approved by the Board.

Distributions to Shareholders — Each Fund, except the Gas Utility Index Fund and Money Market Fund, declares and pays any dividends from its net investment income, if any, annually. The Gas Utility Index Fund declares and pays any such dividends quarterly. The Money Market Fund declares dividends each day the Fund is open for business and pays monthly. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, will be distributed at least annually for each Fund. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations.

Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Securities sold are determined on a specific identification basis.

The FBR Funds

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Options — Each Fund, except the Gas Utility Index Fund and Money Market Fund, may buy and sell call and put options to hedge against changes in net asset value or to attempt to realize a greater current return. The risk associated with purchasing an option is that a Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Additionally, a Fund bears the risk of loss of premium and change in market value should the counterparty not perform under the contract. Put and call options purchased are accounted for in the same manner as portfolio securities. The cost of securities acquired through the exercise of call options is increased by the premiums paid. The proceeds from securities sold through the exercise of put options are decreased by the premiums paid. When a Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options which expire unexercised are recorded by a Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from option transactions.

The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying securities in determining whether a Fund has a realized gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by a Fund. Each Fund’s use of written options involves, to varying degrees, elements of market risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The contract or notional amounts reflect the extent of a Fund’s involvement in these financial instruments. In writing an option, a Fund bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. Exercise of an option written by a Fund could result in a Fund selling or buying a security at a price different from the current market value. A Fund’s activities in written options are conducted through regulated exchanges, which do not result in counterparty credit risks. The Funds had no outstanding options at October 31, 2007.

Repurchase Agreements — The Funds have agreed to purchase securities from financial institutions subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase them at an agreed-upon time and price (“repurchase agreement”). The financial institutions with whom each Fund enters into repurchase agreements are banks and broker/dealers which the adviser considers creditworthy pursuant to criteria approved by the Board. The seller under a repurchase agreement will be required to maintain the value of the securities as collateral, subject to the agreement at not less than the repurchase price plus accrued interest. The adviser marks to market daily the value of the collateral, and, if necessary, requires the

The FBR Funds

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

seller to maintain additional securities, to ensure that the value is not less than the repurchase price. Default by or bankruptcy of the seller would, however, expose each Fund to possible loss because of adverse market action or delays in connection with the disposition of the underlying securities.

Securities Lending — Each Fund may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers, banks or institutional borrowers of securities. Loans of securities are required at all times to be secured by collateral equal to at least 100% of the market value of the securities on loan. However, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. In the event that the borrower fails to return securities, and cash collateral being maintained by the borrower is insufficient to cover the value of loaned securities and provided such collateral insufficiency is not the result of investment losses, the lending agent has agreed to pay the amount of the shortfall to the Funds. The Funds had no securities on loan at October 31, 2007.

Line of Credit — The Trust has a line of credit (“Credit Agreement”) with Custodial Trust Company (“CTC”) for temporary or emergency purposes. Under the Credit Agreement, CTC provides a line of credit in an amount up to the maximum amount permitted under the 1940 Act and each Fund’s prospectus. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, each participating Fund is liable only for principal and interest payments related to borrowings made by that Fund.

Under the Plan, each Fund may pay FBR Investment Services, Inc. (the “Distributor”) a fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of each Fund’s average daily net assets. Fees paid to the Distributor under the Plan are payable without regard to actual expenses incurred.

5. Federal Income Taxes

It is each Fund’s policy to continue to comply with the special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies. As provided therein, in any fiscal year in which a Fund so qualifies and distributes at least 90% of its taxable net income, the Fund (but not the shareholders) will be relieved of federal income tax on the income distributed. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made.

In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also each Fund’s intention to declare and pay as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ending October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from accounting principles that are generally accepted in the United States of America. As a result, the character of tax-basis distributions and the composition of net assets for tax purposes may differ from those reflected in the Funds’ financial statements. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent in nature. Temporary differences are primarily the result of wash sales. Reclassifications for permanent differences are made to components of capital. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.

On July 13, 2006, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold will be required to be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Recent SEC guidance allows implementing FIN 48 in fund NAV calculations as late as the Fund’s last NAV calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period. As a result, the Funds will incorporate FIN 48 in their semiannual report on April 30, 2008. Management is in the process of determining the impact of adoption.

6. Investments in Affiliates

Affiliated issuers, as defined by the 1940 Act, are those in which a Fund’s holdings represent 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the issuer. A summary of each Fund’s investments in affiliates, if any, for the year ended October 31, 2007, is noted below:

7. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

The FBR Funds
Arlington, Virginia

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments of the FBR Large Cap Financial Fund, FBR Small Cap Financial Fund, FBR Small Cap Fund, FBR Large Cap Technology Fund, FBR Small Cap Technology Fund, FBR Gas Utility Index Fund, FBR Fund for Government Investors, FBR Pegasus Fund, FBR Pegasus Mid Cap Fund, and FBR Pegasus Small Cap Fund (the “Funds”), each a series of the FBR Funds as of October 31, 2007 and with respect to FBR Large Cap Financial Fund, FBR Small Cap Financial Fund, FBR Small Cap Fund, FBR Large Cap Technology Fund, FBR Small Cap Technology Fund, FBR Gas Utility Index Fund, FBR Fund for Government Investors the related statements of operations for the year then ended, 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 then ended, with respect to the FBR Pegasus Fund the related statements of operations, the statements of changes in net assets, and the financial highlights for the year then ended and for the period November 15, 2005 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 2006, with respect to FBR Pegasus Mid Cap Fund and FBR Pegasus Small Cap Fund the statements of operations, statements of changes in net assets, and the financial highlights for the period February 28, 2007 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 2007. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. The financial highlights of the FBR Fund for Government Investors for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2003 were audited by other auditors whose report dated February 20, 2004 expressed an unqualified opinion on such financial highlights.

We conducted our audits in accordance with 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. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where brokers did not reply to our confirmation requests. 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.

Approval of the Continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreements for the Funds

In accordance with the 1940 Act, the Board is required, on an annual basis, at an in-person meeting of the Board called for such purpose, to consider: (i) the continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreement with Fund Advisers with respect to each of the Funds and (ii)the continuation of the Sub-Investment Advisory Agreement with ACM with respect to the Focus Fund (previously, the Small Cap Fund) (collectively, the “Advisory Agreements”).

The relevant provisions of the 1940 Act specifically provide that it is the duty of the Board to request and evaluate such information as the Board determines is necessary to allow them to properly consider the continuation of the Advisory Agreements, and it is the duty of each of the Advisers to furnish the Trustees with such information that is reasonably necessary for the Trustees to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Agreements.

The FBR Funds

Important Supplemental Information (unaudited) (continued)

Accordingly, in determining whether to renew the Advisory Agreements, the Board requested, and the Advisers provided, information and data relevant to the Board’s consideration. This included information regarding the investment performance of the Funds and information regarding the fees and expenses of the Funds, as compared to other similar mutual funds.

As part of its deliberations, the Board also considered and relied upon the information about the Funds and the Advisers that had been provided to them throughout the year in connection with their regular Board meetings at which they engage in the ongoing oversight of the Funds and their operations. The Independent Trustees were counseled during this process by independent legal counsel, as such term is defined in the rules under the 1940 Act, who reviewed with them their duties and responsibilities with respect to their consideration of the continuation of the Advisory Agreements.

The Board held an in-person meeting on October 26, 2007, at which they considered the renewal of the Advisory Agreements and the Board engaged in a thorough review process to determine whether or not to continue the Advisory Agreements. During this meeting, the Board reviewed relevant information and data provided by the Advisers in response to written questions from the Independent Trustees and met with independent legal counsel to the Independent Trustees to discuss their evaluation of the information provided by the Advisers. The Board met with representatives of Fund Advisers and discussed with them, among other things, their investment process, the investment results of the Funds, compensation arrangements for the portfolio managers, brokerage practices used for the Funds, the cost of providing the services and the profitability of the advisory arrangements to the Advisers, the extent to which the Advisers had achieved economies of scale, the extent to which shareholders participated in those economies of scale, and matters relating to the distribution and marketing of the Funds.

The Board first reviewed matters with respect to the proposed continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreement with Fund Advisers in connection with the Equity Funds and the Money Market Fund. The Board reviewed information and materials regarding the investment advisory fees for the Equity Funds. Representatives of Fund Advisers stated that the investment advisory fees for the Equity Funds are not presently subject to any asset-based breakpoints, but that Fund Advisers has in place with respect to each of the Equity Funds an expense limitation agreement limiting total annual operating expenses of each of the Equity Funds which it indicated that it intended to continue maintaining for the Equity Funds for another year. The Board was also informed by representatives of Fund Advisers that the Money Market Fund is subject to asset-based breakpoints and that Fund Advisers also maintains an expense limitation agreement with respect to the Money Market Fund in order to limit the total annual operating expenses of the Money Market Fund and that it also intended to continue maintaining the expense limitation arrangement for the Money Market Fund for another year.

The Board then considered information regarding each of the Funds separately and reviewed with the representatives of Fund Advisers various performance and expense

Important Supplemental Information (unaudited) (continued)

information for each of the Funds, changes in total assets for each of the Funds, the costs of providing services, the profitability of each of the Funds to Fund Advisers, and distribution arrangements for each of the Funds, as follows:

1. Large Cap Financial Fund. The Board first reviewed information and materials regarding the Large Cap Financial Fund, noting the Fund’s fees, expenses and performance results, and compared such information to comparable funds and to the Fund’s relevant benchmark indexes. The Board members took note of the Large Cap Financial Fund’s investment performance for the one, three, five and 10-year periods and since inception. The Board then engaged in discussions with the portfolio manager for the Large Cap Financial Fund in order to review the investment operations of the Fund and he responded to questions from the Board regarding investment matters with respect to the Large Cap Financial Fund.

2. Small Cap Financial Fund. The Board next reviewed information and materials regarding the Small Cap Financial Fund, noting the Fund’s fees, expenses and performance results, and compared such information to comparable funds and to the Fund’s relevant benchmark indexes. The Board members took note of the Small Cap Financial Fund’s investment performance for the one, three, five and 10-year periods and since inception. The Board also took note of the fact that the Small Cap Financial Fund does a certain amount of brokerage transactions through FBR, and it was noted that information concerning the nature and amount of these affiliated brokerage transactions is reported to the Board on a quarterly basis in accordance with the Fund’s Rule 17e-1 reporting requirements. The Board concluded that, in light of all the circumstances, the level of trades placed through FBR was reasonable, especially in light of the fact that FBR is active in the markets for many financial services stocks, thus making it reasonable for the Fund to utilize FBR for some of its portfolio brokerage transactions. The Board then met with the portfolio manager for the Small Cap Financial Fund to discuss the investment operations of the Fund and he responded to questions from the Board regarding investment matters with respect to the Small Cap Financial Fund.

3. Focus Fund. The Board next reviewed information and materials regarding the Focus Fund, noting the Fund’s fees, expenses and performance results, and then compared such information to comparable funds and to the Fund’s relevant benchmark indexes. The Board reviewed information and material that had been submitted to them by ACM concerning ACM’s expenses in connection with managing the Focus Fund and the profitability of ACM’s relationship to the Fund. The Board took note of the performance results of the Focus Fund, the growth in assets of the Fund, and the investment strategies employed by ACM in connection with its sub-investment management of the Focus Fund. The Board considered the fact that the Fund re-opened to new investors on January 2, 2007. The Board members took note of the Focus Fund’s overall investment performance for the one, three, five and 10-year periods and since inception.

10. Fund for Government Investors (the Money Market Fund). The Board then considered matters with respect to the continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreement with Fund Advisers in connection with the Money Market Fund. The Board reviewed information and material that had been submitted to them by Fund Advisers and the Board discussed various matters with respect to the Money Market Fund with representatives of Fund Advisers, noting that the Money Market Fund is subject to an expense limitation agreement which limits the total annual operating expenses of the Money Market Fund and also noting that the Money Market Fund is subject to asset based breakpoints which provide for reduced investment advisory fees as assets in the Fund increase.

The Board reviewed the proposed continuation of each of the Advisory Agreements. Among the factors the Board considered was the overall performance of the Funds relative to the performance of other mutual funds in each Fund’s peer group on a long-term basis and over shorter time periods. The Board also took note of the long-term relationship between Fund Advisers and the Funds and the efforts that had been undertaken by Fund Advisers to foster the growth and development of the Funds since the inception of each of the Funds. In addition, the Board compared expenses of each Fund to the expenses of its peers, noting that the expenses for each of the Funds compared favorably with industry averages for other funds of similar size. They noted the range of investment advisory and administrative services provided by Fund Advisers and its affiliates to the Funds and the level and quality of these services, and in particular, they noted the quality of the personnel providing these services. The Board also reviewed financial information concerning Fund Advisers and its affiliates relating to the operation of the Funds, noting the overall profitability of the relationship with the Funds to Fund Advisers and the financial soundness of Fund Advisers as demonstrated by the financial information provided.

The Board further reviewed the Funds’ brokerage practices and best-execution procedures, and noted that these were reasonable and consistent with standard industry practice. The Board considered the receipt by the Advisers of research and execution services in exchange for payment of brokerage commissions. The Board noted that the Advisers do not maintain any formal agreements with firms to direct Fund brokerage in exchange for third party research and that the Advisers represented that trading done with various brokerage firms is done in a manner that is consistent with relevant requirements relating to the receipt of research in connection with brokerage transactions. The Board took note

113

Important Supplemental Information (unaudited) (continued)

of the fact that a certain amount of brokerage for one of the Funds is handled by a brokerage affiliate of Fund Advisers, and the Board noted the Advisers’ representations that such brokerage is conducted in a manner consistent with applicable rules relating to brokerage placed through affiliated entities. The Board determined that the amount of affiliated brokerage was fair and reasonable and done in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements. The Board also reviewed information regarding the manner in which the Funds’ affiliated broker utilizes certain electronic communications networks (“ECNs”) for purposes of effectuating portfolio trades for some of the Funds and the way in which the use of these ECNs can be beneficial to the brokerage firm when trading on behalf of the Funds.

The Board also took note of the fact that an affiliate of Fund Advisers, FBR Investment Services, Inc. (“FBRIS”), serves as the distributor of the shares of the Funds and receives distribution fees from the Funds for serving in that role. The Board considered and discussed the activities routinely engaged in by FBRIS in order to distribute and market the Funds. The Board reviewed the distribution arrangements maintained by FBRIS for the Funds, noting the extensive sales arrangements for the Funds on various mutual fund supermarket platforms and the manner in which the distribution fees paid by those of the Funds that pay distribution fees are utilized in connection with these arrangements.

The Board also considered and reviewed information regarding the administrative services fees paid to Fund Advisers by the Funds for providing certain types of administrative services. The Board considered the approval, at the October 26 meeting, of the reduction of certain administrative functions performed by Fund Advisers and the engagement of JPMorgan Chase Bank to perform those services previously provided by Fund Advisers and the potential overall cost reduction to the Funds of this new arrangement. The Board determined that the administrative fees previously paid and now payable under the new arrangement to Fund Advisers were fair and reasonable in connection with the types of services to be provided by Fund Advisers to the Funds and that they are reasonable fees to be paid in addition to the investment advisory fees paid by the Funds to Fund Advisers given that the administrative services are separate and distinct services apart from the investment advisory services being provided to the Funds by Fund Advisers.

The Independent Trustees then met separately with the independent legal counsel to the Independent Trustees in order to consider the proposed continuation of the Advisory Agreements. At the conclusion of their session, the Independent Trustees had determined that they had received sufficient information to allow them to take action with respect to their consideration of the continuation of the Advisory Agreements.

In reaching their conclusion with respect to the continuation of the Agreements, the Trustees did not identify any one single factor as being controlling, rather, the Board took note of a combination of factors that influenced their decision making process. The Trustees noted that in each case, the Fund’s performance compared well to its benchmark either in the long-term, the short-term or both, and that management has demonstrated a commitment to continued enhancement of investment performance. The Board also considered the effectiveness of the compliance programs of the Funds and the Advisers in

114

accordance with applicable requirements relating to mutual funds and their investment advisers. Based upon their review and consideration of these factors and other matters deemed relevant by the Board in reaching an informed business judgment, a majority of the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, concluded that the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreements are fair and reasonable and the Board voted to renew the Agreements for an additional one-year period, subject to the applicable limitations on the total operating expenses of the Funds as considered and approved at the meeting.
