WHAT WERE THE FUND COSTS FOR THE PAST YEAR? (based on a hypothetical $10,000 investment)

PRIMECAP Odyssey Stock Fund | $77 | 0.67% |
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024, the PRIMECAP Odyssey Stock Fund’s total return of +29.83% trailed the S&P 500® Index’s total return of +38.02%.
• During the fiscal year, the U.S. economy proved resilient as a firm labor market and robust consumer spending delivered
healthy real GDP growth. Core inflation moderated somewhat but persisted at above-target levels, forcing the Federal
Reserve to keep its benchmark rate above 5% for most of the year. But as economic data softened towards period-end,
the Fed in September initiated its long-awaited dovish pivot with a 50 basis point cut.
• Increasing optimism in a so-called “soft landing” and the prospect of lower interest rates bolstered equities. The S&P
500® Index’s forward price-to-earnings multiple expanded over 20% during the period, from roughly 17x to 21x, driving
most of the market’s return. Forward earnings also showed healthy double-digit growth.
• The Fund logged a strong gain but was unable to keep pace with the S&P 500® Index’s torrid rise. Relative to the S&P
500® Index, sector allocation and stock selection were both unfavorable.
• The Fund’s sector allocation headwind stemmed from its significant overweight position in health care and its
substantial underweight positions in the two best performing sectors, information technology and communication
services.
• Stock selection was positive in the health care, industrials, and financials sectors. Stock selection was broadly
unfavorable otherwise, with the information technology sector serving as the primary detractor.

• Stock selection was most positive in the health care sector. Selection was weakest in the information technology sector,
while selection in the communication services and consumer discretionary sectors also detracted from relative
performance.

Item 2. Code of Ethics.
The Registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the Registrant’s principal executive officers and principal financial officer. The Registrant has not made any amendments to its code of ethics during the period covered by this report. The Registrant has not granted any waivers, including any implicit waivers, from any provisions of the code of ethics during the period covered by this report.
The Registrant undertakes to provide to any person without charge, upon request, a copy of its code of ethics by mail when such person calls the Registrant at 1-800-729-2307.
Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.
The Registrant’s Board of Trustees has determined that there is at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee. Wayne H. Smith and Steven Paul Cesinger are the Registrant’s “audit committee financial experts” and are considered to be “independent” as each term is defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR.
Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
(a) Audit Fees
The Registrant has engaged its principal accountant, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, to perform audit services, audit-related services, and tax services during the past two fiscal years. “Audit services” refer to performing an audit of the Registrant’s annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years.
(b) Audit-Related Fees
“Audit-related services” refer to the assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit.
(c) Tax Fees
“Tax services” refer to professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning and specifically relate to the accountant’s review of the Registrant’s federal and state tax returns.
(d) All Other Fees
There were no other services provided by the principal accountant to the Registrant during the past two fiscal years.
The following table details the aggregate fees billed or expected to be billed to the Registrant for each of the last two fiscal years for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and all other fees by the principal accountant.
| FYE 10/31/2024 | FYE 10/31/2023 |
(a) Audit Fees | $163,697 | $186,946(1) |
(b) Audit-Related Fees | $0 | $0 |
(c) Tax Fees | $18,927 | $19,779 |
(d) All Other Fees | $0 | $0 |
(1) | The Audit Fees included $23,900 in scope change fees, which were paid by US Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, related to additional procedures performed due to US Bancorp Fund Accounting’s SOC-1 report not being completed prior to the issuance of the principal accountant’s audit report. |
(e)(1) The audit committee has adopted pre-approval policies and procedures that require the audit committee to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services of the Registrant, including services provided to any entity affiliated with the Registrant. All services were pre-approved and no waivers to the pre-approval requirement were made.
(e)(2) The percentage of fees billed by PricewaterhouseCoopers applicable to non-audit services pursuant to waiver of pre-approval requirement were as follows:
| FYE 10/31/2024 | FYE 10/31/2023 |
Audit-Related Fees | 0% | 0% |
Tax Fees | 0% | 0% |
All Other Fees | 0% | 0% |
(f) Not applicable.
(g) The following table indicates the non-audit fees billed or expected to be billed by the Registrant’s accountant for services rendered to the Registrant and to the Registrant’s investment adviser (and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser) for the last two years.
Non-Audit Fees | FYE 10/31/2024 | FYE 10/31/2023 |
Registrant | $18,927 | $19,779 |
Registrant’s Investment Adviser | $0 | $0 |
(h) The audit committee of the Board of Trustees has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the Registrant’s investment adviser is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence and has concluded that the provision of such non-audit services by the accountant has not compromised the accountant’s independence.
(i) Not applicable.

PRIMECAP Odyssey Funds
Notes to Financial Statements
For the Year Ended October 31, 2024
(1) Organization
PRIMECAP Odyssey Funds (the “Trust”) was organized on June 8, 2004 as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Trust is comprised of three series: PRIMECAP Odyssey Stock Fund (the “Stock Fund”), PRIMECAP Odyssey Growth Fund (the “Growth Fund”), and PRIMECAP Odyssey Aggressive Growth Fund (the “Aggressive Growth Fund”) (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”), each of which is diversified within the meaning of the 1940 Act. PRIMECAP Management Company (the “Investment Advisor”) serves as investment advisor to the Funds. Each Fund commenced operations on November 1, 2004.
Each Fund’s investment objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation. Each Fund is authorized to issue unlimited shares of beneficial interest. All shares of each Fund have equal rights with respect to voting.
(2) Significant Accounting Policies
The Funds consistently follow the accounting policies set forth below which are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Funds are considered investment companies under U.S. GAAP and follow the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Auditing Standards Codification Topic 946.
A.
| Security Valuation – Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price at the close of regular trading on each day the exchanges are open for trading. Securities traded on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price. Non-U.S. traded stocks are valued at the last sale price or official closing price in the primary local market where the stock is traded. Securities traded on an exchange for which there have been no sales are valued at the mean between the bid and ask price. Because trading on most non-U.S. exchanges is normally completed before the close of the New York Stock Exchange, the value of securities traded on foreign exchanges can change by the time a Fund calculates its net asset value per share (“NAV”). To address these changes, the Funds may utilize adjustment factors provided by an independent pricing service to systematically value foreign securities at fair value. These adjustment factors are based on statistical analyses of subsequent movement in securities indices, specific security prices, and exchange rates in foreign markets. |
Securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at their respective fair values as determined in good faith by a valuation committee of the Investment Advisor in accordance with procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. Pursuant to those procedures, the Board of Trustees has designated the Investment Advisor as the Funds’ valuation designee responsible for determining whether market quotations are readily available and reliable, and making good faith determinations of fair value when appropriate. In determining fair value, the Funds take into account all relevant factors and available information. Consequently, the price of a security used by a Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same security. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments, and there is no single standard for determining a security’s fair value. As a result, different mutual funds could reasonably arrive at a different fair value for the same security. It is possible that the fair value determined for a security is materially different from the value that could be realized upon the sale of that security or from the values that other mutual funds may determine.
Investments in other funds are valued at their respective net asset values as determined by those funds, in accordance with the 1940 Act.
B.
| Share Valuation – The NAV of a Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses), by the total number of outstanding shares of the Fund. The result is rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading. |
C.
| Foreign Currency – Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates as of 4 p.m. Eastern time on the valuation date. Purchases and sales of investments and dividend and interest income are converted into U.S. dollars using the spot market rate of |

exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such translations. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses may arise from 1) sales of foreign currencies; 2) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions; and 3) the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period. Foreign securities and currency transactions may involve risks not associated with U.S. securities and currency.
D.
| Federal Income Taxes – Each Fund has elected to be treated as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “IRC”). Each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and any accumulated net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the financial statements. |
The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be reclaimed. The Funds will accrue such taxes and reclaims as applicable based upon their current interpretations of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which they invest.
Each Fund has adopted accounting standards regarding recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year ended October 31, 2024, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. As of October 31, 2024, open tax years include the tax years ended October 31, 2021 through October 31, 2024. No Fund is aware of any tax positions for which it is more likely than not that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits or loss will significantly change in the next 12 months.
E.
| Allocation of Expenses – Each Fund is charged for those expenses directly attributable to it. Expenses that are not directly attributable to a Fund are allocated among the Funds by an appropriate method based on the nature of the expense. |
F.
| Security Transactions, Investment Income, and Distributions – Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses are evaluated on the basis of identified costs. Premiums and discounts on the purchase of securities are amortized/accreted using the effective interest method. U.S. GAAP requires that permanent financial reporting and tax differences be reclassified in the capital accounts. |
G.
| Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material. |
H.
| Indemnification Obligations – Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its current and former officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties that 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. Based on experience, the Funds would expect the risk of loss to be minimal. |

(3) Investment Transactions
The cost of purchases and the proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short-term investments, for the year ended October 31, 2024 were as follows:
| | | | | | |

Growth Fund | | | $299,730,372 | | | $2,325,315,866 |
Aggressive Growth Fund | | | $573,683,891 | | | $1,693,734,784 |
| | | | | | |
(4) Valuation Measurements
The Funds have adopted fair valuation accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set forth a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosure about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion of changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period. These standards define fair value as the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy is organized into three levels based upon the assumptions (referred to as “inputs”) used to value the asset or liability. These standards state that “observable inputs” reflect the significant assumptions that market participants would use in valuing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources. “Unobservable inputs” reflect the Funds’ own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use to value the asset or liability.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund’s investments, and the lowest level for any significant input determines leveling. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels below:
Level 1 –
| Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities to which the Trust has access at the date of measurement. |
Level 2 –
| Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar or related securities in both active and inactive markets, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and fair value estimates for foreign securities indices). |
Level 3 –
| Significant unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are unavailable (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining fair value of investments based on the best available information). |
The following table provides the fair value measurements of applicable Fund assets by level within the fair value hierarchy for each Fund as of October 31, 2024. These assets are measured on a recurring basis.

U.S. GAAP requires that permanent book-to-tax differences be reclassified among the components of net assets. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024, the following reclassifications were made:
| | | | | | | | | |
Stock Fund | | | $7,618 | | | $(120,428,700) | | | $120,421,082 |
Growth Fund | | | $47,552 | | | $(207,404,065) | | | $207,356,513 |
Aggressive Growth Fund | | | $280,592 | | | $(102,670,079) | | | $102,389,487 |
| | | | | | | | | |
The Funds used a tax accounting practice to treat a portion of the price of capital shares redeemed during the year as distributions from net realized capital gains. The PRIMECAP Odyssey Stock Fund, PRIMECAP Odyssey Growth Fund, and PRIMECAP Odyssey Aggressive Growth Fund reclassified $120,421,082, $207,356,513, and $102,389,487, respectively, from Accumulated Net Realized Gain to Paid In Capital. Other permanent book-to-tax differences that required reclassification among the Funds’ capital accounts related to foreign currency adjustments and net operating losses.
Tax components of dividends paid during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023 were as follows:
| | | | | | |
Stock Fund | | | $72,271,893 | | | $471,020,327 | | | $70,023,060 | | | $553,003,844 |

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
The Funds designated as long-term capital gain dividends, pursuant to IRC Section 852(b)(3), the amounts necessary to reduce the earnings and profits of the Funds related to net capital gains to zero for the tax year ended October 31, 2024.

Significant market disruptions, such as those caused by pandemics (e.g., COVID-19 pandemic), natural or environmental disasters, war (e.g., Russia’s invasion of Ukraine), acts of terrorism, or other events, can adversely affect local and global markets and normal market operations. The ultimate economic fallout from these disruptions and the long-term impact on economies, markets, industries, and individual issuers, are not known. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which each Fund invests depends on future developments and may negatively impact the value of each Fund’s investments and lead to losses.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE RENEWAL OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of PRIMECAP Odyssey Funds (the “Trust”) is comprised of eight Trustees, six of whom are not “interested persons” of the Trust as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”). In October 2024, at an in-person meeting, the Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, approved a one-year renewal of the Trust’s investment advisory agreement with PRIMECAP Management Company (the “Advisor”) with respect to the series of the Trust (the “Funds”).
General Information
As part of the annual contract review process, the Independent Trustees, through counsel to the Trust and the Independent Trustees, requested and received extensive materials, including information related to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Advisor; information prepared by Broadridge Financial Solutions (“Broadridge”) comparing the performance and risk profile of each Fund to those of relevant market indices and of other funds in the relevant Morningstar, Inc. (“Morningstar”) categories and in a smaller group of funds selected by Broadridge; information from the Advisor regarding the performance of each Fund since inception (in 2004) compared to the return of its benchmark index or indices; information prepared by Broadridge comparing the advisory fees and total expenses to those of other funds in the relevant Morningstar category and peer group; financial information for the Advisor and information related to the profitability to the Advisor of the investment advisory agreement with the Trust; the extent to which the Advisor expects to achieve economies of scale in connection with the services it provides to each Fund; any ancillary or “fall out” benefits that the Advisor may derive from its relationship with the Funds; and the personnel of the Advisor providing services to the Funds. The Independent Trustees also requested and received information regarding the Advisor’s risk controls, risk evaluation processes, compliance program (including brokerage and trading processes), information technology infrastructure (including cyber security measures), business continuity plans, and other matters.
The Trust engaged Broadridge to prepare an independent expense and performance analysis for each Fund. In performing its analyses, Broadridge used data compiled by Morningstar to compare the expenses and performance of each Fund to those of similar funds managed by other advisors identified by Broadridge. The Board reviewed the Broadridge materials, which included information regarding the performance of each Fund compared with the performance of its benchmark index and of the entire universe of funds in its Morningstar retail category, as well as the performance of a group of comparable funds selected by Broadridge from the relevant Morningstar category (each a “Peer Group”), for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods ended July 31, 2024 (in each case net of fees); as well as information regarding the advisory fees paid to the Advisor and the total expense ratio of each Fund compared to those of a peer group of comparable funds selected by Broadridge (each an “Expense Peer Group”) from the Fund’s Morningstar retail category.
With respect to investment performance, the Trustees noted that the Advisor had made quarterly presentations to the Board regarding the Funds’ portfolio construction, investment strategies, and results. The Trustees also noted that in addition to meeting with the Funds’ portfolio managers on a quarterly basis, they also received presentations from different investment analysts throughout the year on specific investment sectors and each Fund’s investments in those sectors. In considering the renewal of the agreement, the Board also took into account the Board’s discussion with the Advisor’s investment personnel prior to the meeting with respect to matters relating to the renewal of the advisory agreement, along with other information it had received at past Board and committee meetings with respect to various matters.

PRIMECAP ODYSSEY FUNDS
Additional Information (Unaudited)(Continued)
The Trustees reviewed information from counsel to the Trust and the Independent Trustees regarding their responsibilities in considering whether to renew the investment advisory agreement for an additional one-year period. In connection with their deliberations, the Board considered such information and factors that they believed to be relevant. The Board considered renewal of the investment advisory agreement separately for each Fund, although the Board took into account the common interests of all the Funds in its review. In considering these matters, the Board discussed the renewal of the investment advisory agreement with management, and the Independent Trustees met in a private session with counsel to the Trust and the Independent Trustees at which no employees of the Advisor were present.
In deciding to approve the renewal of the investment advisory agreement, the Board and the Independent Trustees did not identify a single factor that was controlling. The Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that each of the various factors referred to below favored such approval. The following summary describes the key factors considered by the Trustees and their conclusions that formed the basis for approving the renewal of the investment advisory agreement in light of the legal advice furnished by counsel and their own business judgment. This summary is not inclusive of all of the factors considered, and each Trustee did not necessarily attribute the same weight to each factor.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services
The Board considered the services provided by the Advisor to the Funds under the investment advisory agreement, including the background, education, and experience of the Advisor’s key portfolio management, compliance, and operational personnel; its overall financial strength and stability; its resources and efforts to retain, attract, and motivate capable personnel to serve the Funds; and the overall general quality and depth of its organization. The Board also took into account the experience, capability, and integrity of the Advisor’s senior management, the time that senior management commits to the Funds, and the Advisor’s demonstrated commitment to the Funds; its investment philosophy and processes, including its brokerage and trading practices; its disaster recovery and contingency planning; its oversight of the Funds’ internal control environment with regard to compliance with applicable laws and regulations; and the significant investment by each portfolio manager in the Funds that he manages, which helps align his interests with those of Fund shareholders. The Trustees concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided under the investment advisory agreement were of a high level and satisfactory.
Investment Performance
The Board assessed the performance of each Fund compared with the performance of its benchmark(s) and other funds in the Fund’s Morningstar retail category and Peer Group for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods ended July 31, 2024, and against the performance of its benchmarks for the period since inception. The Board made the following observations in reviewing the Funds’ performance:
• | The annualized total returns of the PRIMECAP Odyssey Stock Fund outperformed the returns of its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, for the since inception period ended July 31, 2024, but underperformed compared to the Index for the one-, three- five- and ten-year periods by 4.64%, 1.53%, 2.41% and 1.29%, respectively. The Fund’s annualized total returns were below the median returns of the funds in the Morningstar Large Relative Value category for the one- three-, five and ten-year periods by 3.64%, 0.93% 1.31% and 0.42%. The Fund’s annualized total returns were below the median returns of the Peer Group for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods by 3.84%, 1.05%, 2.15% and 0.92%, respectively. |
• | The annualized total returns of the PRIMECAP Odyssey Growth Fund outperformed the returns of its primary benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, for the since inception period ended July 31, 2024, but underperformed compared to the Index for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods by 8.45%, 4.54%, 3.97% and 1.25%, respectively. The Fund’s annualized total returns underperformed the returns of its secondary benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year and since inception periods by 13.24%, 4.40%, 7.38%, 4.41%, and 1.34%, respectively. The Fund’s annualized total returns were below the median returns of the funds in the Morningstar Large Core Growth category for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods by 10.85%, 2.68%, 5.03% and 2.71%, respectively. The Fund’s annualized total returns were below the median returns of the Peer Group for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods by 9.84%, 2.48%, 4.55% and 1.77%, respectively. |
• | The annualized total returns of the PRIMECAP Odyssey Aggressive Growth Fund outperformed the return of its primary benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, for the since inception period ended July 31, 2024, but |
TABLE OF CONTENTS
PRIMECAP ODYSSEY FUNDS
Additional Information (Unaudited)(Continued)
underperformed compared to the Index for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods by 13.56%, 9.76%, 7.17%, and 2.36%, respectively. The Fund’s annualized total returns outperformed the returns of its secondary benchmark, the Russell Mid Cap Growth Index, for the three-year and since inception periods, but underperformed relative to the Index for the one-, five-, and ten-year periods by 3.76%, 1.72%, and 0.13%, respectively. The Fund’s annualized total return was above the median return of the funds in the Morningstar All-Cap Growth category for the three-year period, but the Fund’s annualized total returns were below the median returns of the Morningstar category for the one-, five-, and ten-year periods by 3.00%, 1.51%, and 0.49%, respectively. The Fund’s annualized total returns were below the median returns of the Peer Group for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods by 5.49%, 2.19%, 4.28%, and 0.92%, respectively.
In assessing the performance of the Funds, the Trustees acknowledged that the Funds’ performance struggled to keep pace with that of their respective indices, Peer Groups, and Morningstar categories for the periods included in the Broadridge report as the Advisor stayed committed to its investment philosophy and refused to chase momentum driven stocks during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the Funds’ underweight positions in the “Big 5” tech stocks (Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, and Meta), since those companies benefited significantly from the pandemic. The Trustees noted that the Advisor believes that each Fund continues to hold considerable value in its portfolio despite the various periods of underperformance. The Trustees also noted that each Fund had outperformed its primary benchmark for the period since inception.
The Independent Trustees considered the Advisor’s explanation that the Funds’ portfolios are extremely differentiated, and as a result have historically gone through long periods of underperformance. They noted the historical performance of the Funds’ portfolios and noted sustained periods of both outperformance and underperformance, depending on market sentiment and whether mega-cap stocks were outperforming, among other factors; that the Advisor seeks to select stocks of companies that are expected to materially develop more than the market expects, which can take a long time; and that based on the fundamental characteristics of the portfolios, the Funds were well positioned with strong growth prospects.
Based on the information provided to them and in consideration of the specific investment objectives and risk profiles of each Fund, the Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the performance of each Fund was sufficient for renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Advisory Fees and Fund Expenses
The Board reviewed the advisory fees and expenses paid by each Fund compared to those of other funds in the same Morningstar retail category (for the Stock Fund – Large Blend funds; for the Growth Fund – Large Growth funds; and for the Aggressive Growth Fund – Mid-Cap Growth funds), and of other funds in the Fund’s Expense Peer Group, which was selected by Broadridge and was comprised of funds comparable to the Fund with fee structures and characteristics similar to those of the Funds (e.g., no distribution or shareholder servicing fees, and excluding load funds, index and enhanced index funds, funds of funds, and multi-manager funds).
The materials for the meeting indicated as follows:
• | The advisory fee of the Stock Fund was the same as the median fee of the funds in the Morningstar Large Blend retail category, but above the median fee of the Fund’s Expense Peer Group by 0.03%. |
• | The advisory fee of the Growth Fund was below the median fees of the funds in the Morningstar Large Growth category and the Fund’s Expense Peer Group. |
• | The advisory fee of the Aggressive Growth Fund was below the median fees of the funds in the Morningstar Mid-Cap Growth category and the Fund’s Expense Peer Group. |
• | The total expense ratios of the Stock Fund, the Growth Fund and the Aggressive Growth Fund were below the medians of the respective Morningstar retail categories. The total expense ratio of the Stock Fund was above the median of its Expense Peer Group by 0.02%, but the expense ratios of the Growth Fund and Aggressive Growth Fund were below the medians of their respective Expense Peer Groups. |
The Board also reviewed the fees charged by the Advisor to other clients, including other mutual funds for which it provides sub-advisory services. The Board considered that although those fees were lower than those charged by the
TABLE OF CONTENTS
PRIMECAP ODYSSEY FUNDS
Additional Information (Unaudited)(Continued)
Advisor to the Funds, the differences appropriately reflected the investment, operational, and regulatory differences between advising other clients and the Funds, noting that mutual funds are subject to certain requirements under the 1940 Act that do not apply to the Advisor’s separate account clients. The Trustees considered the services provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement, including providing the Chief Compliance Officer, certain other officers of the Trust and other personnel involved in the oversight of the Trust’s service providers. The Board further noted that the advisory fee was the sole source of revenue from the Funds to the Advisor. The Board and the Independent Trustees determined that the advisory fees and expenses charged to the Funds were reasonable in consideration of the services provided.
Costs and Profits of the Advisor
The Board reviewed information regarding the Advisor’s financial position and concluded that the Advisor would be able to continue to provide advisory services to the Funds. The Board also reviewed information relating to the Advisor’s profitability. The Board recognized the competitiveness of the registered fund industry and the importance of an investment advisor’s long-term profitability, including for maintaining management stability and accountability. The Board noted that the Advisor had closed the Aggressive Growth Fund in January 2014 to most new investors, limiting the growth of the Fund and consequently future profits to the Advisor as it relates to the Fund. In considering the Advisor’s profitability, the Trustees recognized the importance of the profitability of the Advisor, not only in maintaining its own financial condition, but also in maintaining an environment in which it is able to attract and retain talented investment professionals. Recognizing the difficulty in evaluating an investment advisor’s profitability with respect to the funds it manages in the context of an advisor with multiple lines of business, and noting that other profitability methodologies might also be reasonable, the Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the profit of the Advisor from its relationship with each Fund was reasonable.
Economies of Scale and Other Benefits to the Investment Advisor
The Trustees considered that the Investment Advisory Agreement provides fee breakpoints at $100 million and $10 billion in assets for each Fund, that the Advisor had added the $10 billion breakpoint effective May 1, 2021, and that the fees continued to compare favorably to those of other actively managed funds with similar investment objectives. The Board considered that the Advisor had significant assets under management at the time the Funds commenced operations and that the Funds were offered advisory fee rates at inception that reflected scale within the Advisor’s business. The Board also acknowledged various diseconomies of scale experienced by the Advisor as the Funds have grown, including the hiring of additional personnel and the provision of additional services to the Funds including online access to shareholder accounts and improved technology, systems, and hardware. The Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the Advisor had shared any economies of scale it had realized from the Funds with the Funds and their shareholders through advisory fee breakpoints, the hiring of additional personnel, the provision of additional services to the Funds, and continued improvements in technology, systems, and hardware.
The Board also considered the benefits received by the Advisor as a result of its relationship with the Funds other than investment advisory fees, including any research provided to the Advisor by broker-dealers providing execution services to the Funds, the intangible benefits of the Advisor’s association with the Funds generally, and any favorable publicity arising in connection with the Funds’ performance.
Conclusions
Based on their review, including their consideration of each of the factors referred to above, the Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the compensation payable to the Advisor pursuant to the investment advisory agreement with respect to each Fund was fair and reasonable in light of the services being provided by the Advisor to the Fund and its shareholders and that renewal of the investment advisory agreement with respect to each Fund was in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders.
