MANAGERS COMMENTARY

MARCH 31, 2018 (UNAUDITED)

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, The Adirondack Small Cap Fund (ADKSX) (the “Fund”) generated returns of 4.12%.  Over the same period, its benchmark, the Russell 2000® Value Index (RUJ), increased 5.13%.  The top ten holdings represented 23.10% of Fund assets and the annual portfolio turnover remained consistent at nearly 38%. 

The U.S. economy continues to improve leading to tighter labor conditions and higher input costs.  The Fed has responded by raising short term rates and the bond market has reacted by adding about 50 bps to the ten-year treasury yield.  Presently, small U.S. companies appear to be handling these challenges relatively well.  However, the chief complaint from many companies has been rising freight rates. According to a recent study by the American Trucking Association, the drivers for private fleets saw their pay rise nearly 18% over the past five years.  Long haul drivers are retiring and its increasingly difficult to replace them.  Adding to this pressure has been the stricter enforcement of rules regarding hours of service for truck drivers whereby drivers are limited to 11 hours per day. The issues surrounding freight rates and availability are not likely go away anytime soon and it’s something we continue to follow closely.

Turning towards our portfolio, the Fund’s underperformance versus our benchmark (RUJ) can be attributed to our relative performance in the HealthCare sector, namely Owens & Minor (OMI).  (As of 03/31/2018, OMI represented 0.95% of the portfolio.)  An earnings reset and fears regarding Amazon entering the medical supplies distribution space sent shares of OMI sharply lower in October.  Though we believe fears of Amazon competition to be overblown, OMI recently closed on a large acquisition that significantly burdened its balance sheet with debt.  While the acquisition appears reasonably priced, we would have preferred they got their house in order before taking on such a large transaction.  As a result, we have materially reduced exposure to OMI and continue to evaluate its progress.  Additionally, the lack of exposure to the highflying stocks in the pharmaceutical industry had an impact on the Fund’s relative performance.  Comprising about 3% of the benchmark, pharmaceuticals returned 32.71% for the period.  The Fund has historically lacked exposure to this industry as it has not proven to be fertile ground for our value philosophy.  Furthermore, it’s important to note that this group consists mainly of unprofitable biotechnology companies.  Interestingly, the pharmaceutical stocks in the Russell 2000® Value Index (up 32.71%) performed nearly identically to those in the Russell 2000® Growth Index (up 31.99%) which suggests to us that investors gambling via passive ETFs are likely bidding up these stocks.  Surprisingly, the recent tough talk in Washington about controlling drug costs has done nothing to quell the irrational exuberance in this space.  We believe that the market will eventually wake up and recognize many of these companies as irrationally priced and highly risky.

MANAGERS COMMENTARY (CONTINUED)

MARCH 31, 2018 (UNAUDITED)

Going forward we expect to see increased volatility in the market.  It made a brief appearance in February, but the U.S. equity markets have since returned to relative calm.  The index that tracks volatility, the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index, or VIX, crossed above the 30 mark for the first time since August 2015.  As contrarians, we prefer more volatility to less.  In calm up trending markets, fundamentals tend to be overlooked and companies attract fair weather investors.  Eventually stocks trade on momentum and completely disconnect from fundamentals, frustrating folks like us that have a strict value criteria.  The volatility, while it lasts, provides opportunities we have not seen in quite some time.  We have added to certain names that suffered during the pullbacks where our conviction remains high and we have found new companies trading at more reasonable valuations.  Additionally, we have taken some profit in holdings that have hit our price target.  Because the duration of the volatility, particularly to the downside, has been relatively short, we are executing slowly and with patience in order to adhere to our price discipline.  We are confident these moves position us for the long-term investment horizon to which we have always subscribed.  

Finally, we are pleased to announce that the Fund received its third Lipper award in February.  The Adirondack Small Cap Fund was named best Small Cap Value Fund during the ten-year time period ended 12/31/17 for its consistently strong risk-adjusted performance relative to its peers.  It placed first out of 124 funds in its category.  We are particularly proud of our latest award as it recognizes our true driving investment principle, long term returns.  The Fund was recognized previously in 2011 for its three-year performance and in 2013 for its five-year performance.  In fact, The Adirondack Small Cap Fund is the only small cap value fund that has won a Lipper Award for all three time periods.  We thank you for your continued support and investment along the way.  For the most up-to-date information on your investment, please visit our website at www.adirondackfunds.com or call us at (518) 690-0470.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2018

Note 1. Organization

The Adirondack Small Cap Fund (the “Fund”) is a diversified series of Adirondack Funds (the “Trust”), an open-end investment company that was organized as an Ohio business trust on December 8, 2004.  The Trust is permitted to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest of separate series. The Fund is the only series currently authorized by the Board of Trustees. The Fund commenced investment operations April 6, 2005. The Fund’s investment objective is long-term capital appreciation. The Fund’s principal investment strategy is to invest in a diversified portfolio of equity securities of small capitalization companies that the Fund’s investment adviser, Adirondack Research & Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”), believes are undervalued. 

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of their financial statements.  The Fund is an investment company that follows the accounting and reporting guidance of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, including FASB Accounting Standard Updated ASU 2013-08 applicable to investment companies.

Security Valuation: All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value according to the procedures described in Note 3.

Foreign currency: Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions.  The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Financial futures contracts: The Fund may invest in financial futures contracts solely for the purpose of hedging its existing portfolio securities, or securities that the Fund intends to purchase, against fluctuations in fair value caused by changes in prevailing securities markets or interest rates. Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash, U.S. government securities, or other assets, equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit).

18

THE ADIRONDACK SMALL CAP FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

MARCH 31, 2018

Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin,” are made or received by the Fund  each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. The Fund recognizes a gain or loss equal to the change in daily variation margin. Should market conditions move unexpectedly, the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss. The use of futures transactions involves the risk of imperfect correlation in movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates, and the underlying hedged assets.  The Fund did not invest in any financial futures contracts during the year ended March 31, 2018.  

Federal Income Taxes:  The Fund’s policy is to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all its taxable income to its shareholders. The Fund also intends to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that it will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years 2015 through 2017 or expected to be taken on the Fund's 2018 tax returns. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal, however, the Fund is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next 12 months.

Distributions to Shareholders:  The Fund intends to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its net realized capital gains and net investment income, if any, at year-end. Distributions will be recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Other:  The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date.  The specific identification method is used for determining gains or losses for financial statements and income tax purposes.  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums are amortized over the useful lives of the respective securities. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

Use of Estimates:  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

MARCH 31, 2018

Reclassifications:  The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due to differing treatments for items such as net short-term gains, deferral of wash sales losses, flow through income from real estate investment trusts and net investment losses. Permanent differences such as tax return of capital, capital gains retained and net investment losses, if any, would be reclassified against capital.

The Fund used a tax accounting practice to treat a portion of the price of capital shares redeemed during the year as distributions from realized capital gains. Accordingly, the Fund has reclassified $5,736,066 from accumulated net realized gains to paid-in capital.

Subsequent Events:  Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Fund through the issuance of these financial statements and has noted no such events requiring disclosure.

Note 3. Security Valuations

Processes and Structure

The Trust’s Board of Trustees has adopted guidelines for valuing securities including in circumstances in which market quotes are not readily available and has delegated to the Advisor the responsibility for determining fair value prices, subject to review by the Board of Trustees.

Fair Value Pricing Policy

The Trust's Board of Trustees has adopted guidelines for Fair Value Pricing, and has delegated to the Advisor the responsibility for determining fair value prices, subject to review by the Board of Trustees.  If market quotations are not readily available, the security will be valued at fair value (the amount which the owner might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale) as determined in good faith by the Advisor (“Fair Value” Pricing), subject to review by the Board of Trustees.  The Advisor must use reasonable diligence in determining whether market quotations are readily available.  If, for example, the Advisor determines that one source of market value is unreliable, the Advisor must diligently seek market quotations from other sources, such as other brokers or pricing services, before concluding that market quotations are not available.  Fair Value Pricing is not permitted when market quotations are readily available.

Hierarchy of Fair Value Inputs

The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of most of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs are as follows:

·

Level 1. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.

·

Level 2. Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.

·

Level 3. Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the company's own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Fair Value Measurements

A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Fund’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows.

Equity securities (common stocks, preferred stocks and real estate investment trusts). Securities traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the NASDAQ national market) are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. To the extent these securities are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Certain foreign securities may be fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the

21

foreign security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as American Depositary Receipts, financial futures, Exchange Traded Funds, and the movement of the certain indexes of securities based on a statistical analysis of the historical relationship and that are categorized in Level 2. Preferred stock and other equities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are also categorized in Level 2.

Short term investments.  Short term investments are valued using amortized cost, which approximates fair value.  These securities will be categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following table summarizes the inputs used to value the Fund’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of March 31, 2018:

	Financial Instruments—Assets
Categories	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Fair Value
Common Stocks *	$221,053,564	$                -	$          -	$221,053,564

	$246,506,281	$ 3,291,686	$          -	$249,797,967

The Fund did not hold any Level 3 assets during the year ended March 31, 2018. The Fund did not hold any derivative instruments at any time during the year ended March 31, 2018.

* Industry classifications of these categories are detailed on the Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Note 4. Investment Management Agreement

The Fund has a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Advisor to furnish investment advisory and management services to the Fund. Gregory A. Roeder and Matthew Reiner, each an officer of the Fund, are shareholders of the Advisor. Louis Morizio is also a shareholder of the Advisor.  Under the Agreement, the Advisor earns a monthly fee from the Fund.  Prior to August 1, 2017, the monthly fee is based on an annual rate of 1.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.  Effective August 1, 2017, the monthly fee is based on an annual rate of 1.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.  Effective August 1, 2017 through August 1, 2018, the Advisor agreed to waive fees or reimburse the Fund should the total operating expenses of the Fund exceed 1.48%.  The Advisor’s obligation to waive fees or reimburse expenses excludes brokerage fees and commissions, borrowing costs (such as (a) interest and (b) dividend expenses on securities sold short), taxes, extraordinary expenses, and costs of acquired funds. Any waiver or reimbursement by the Advisor is subject to repayment by the Fund within three

22

years after the waived and/or reimbursed expenses occurred, if the Fund is able to make repayment without exceeding its current expense limitations and the repayment is approved by the Board of Trustees.  For the year ended March 31, 2018, the Advisor earned advisory fees of $2,858,694.  As of March 31, 2018, the Fund owed the Advisor $235,914.

Note 5.  Distribution Agreement

Note 6. Capital Share Transactions

The Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of separate series.  The total paid-in capital was $207,204,659 as of March 31, 2018.  Transactions in capital for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

	March 31, 2018		March 31, 2017

THE ADIRONDACK SMALL CAP FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

MARCH 31, 2018

The Fund’s tax basis capital gains and losses and undistributed ordinary income are determined only at the end of each fiscal year.  For tax purposes, at March 31, 2018, the following represents the tax basis capital gains and losses and undistributed ordinary income:

Undistributed Long-Term Capital Gain	$ 15,407,747
Undistributed Ordinary Income	1,520,612
Post December Ordinary Loss	(169,639)
Net Unrealized Appreciation of Investments	25,241,117
Total Distributable Earnings	$ 41,999,837

* The difference between the book cost and tax cost of investments represents the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.

The undistributed ordinary income and capital gains (losses) shown may differ from corresponding accumulated net investment income and accumulated net realized gain (loss) reported on the statement of assets and liabilities due to different book/tax treatment of short-term capital gains and due to certain temporary book/tax differences due to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.

Under current tax law, net capital losses realized after October 31^st and net ordinary losses incurred after December 31^st may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following year. The Fund’s carryforward losses, post-October losses and post-December losses are determined only at the end of each fiscal year. As of March 31, 2018, the Fund elected to defer net ordinary losses in the amount of $169,639.

Income and long-term capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

	March 31, 2018	March 31, 2017
Ordinary Income	$   3,256,972	$    260,814
Long-term Gain	$ 20,153,744	$ 8,647,748

Permanent book and tax differences relating to shareholder distributions may result in reclassifications to paid in capital and may affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized and unrealized gain/loss.  Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net realized gain/loss on investment transactions may include temporary book and tax differences which reverse in subsequent periods.  Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year-end is distributed in the following year.

Note 9.  Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts that may contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, management considers the risk of loss from such claims to be remote.

Note 10. Control and Ownership

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of a fund, under section 2(a)(9) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.  As of March 31, 2018, National Financial Service Corp., and Charles Schwab & Co., for the benefit of its customers, each owned approximately 40% and 27%, respectively, of the Fund.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees

  of The Adirondack Small Cap Fund,

  a Series of the Adirondack Funds

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of The Adirondack Small Cap Fund, a Series of the Adirondack Funds (the “Fund”), including the schedule of investments, as of March 31, 2018, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and the related notes (collectively, the “financial statements”), and financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Adirondack Small Cap Fund as of March 31, 2018, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

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

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.  The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its 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 purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities and cash owned as of March 31, 2018, by correspondence with the custodian. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Fund’s auditors since 2005 Abington, Pennsylvania                                                     May 25, 2018

EXPENSE ILLUSTRATION

MARCH 31, 2018 (UNAUDITED)

  Expense Example

As a shareholder of The Adirondack Small Cap Fund, you incur ongoing costs which typically consist of: management fees, custody fees, transfer agent fees, and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund 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, October 1, 2017 through March 31, 2018.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.  

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in this Fund 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.  Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only.  Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing your ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.  If transactional costs were included where applicable, your costs may be higher.

	Beginning Account Value	Ending Account Value	Expenses Paid During the Period*
	October 1, 2017	March 31, 2018	October 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018
Actual	$1,000.00	$978.41	$6.02
Hypothetical
(5% Annual Return before expenses)	$1,000.00	$1,018.85	$6.14
* Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 1.22%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).
