Dear Shareholder,
The Nagle Total Market Plus Fund had its 2nd anniversary with the quarter ended 6/30/2008. The past two years have been a difficult time, to say the least, for just about every asset class except commodities, which have begun to come back to reality. While we have been bombarded with emphasis on the negatives, which are real, human nature tends to make most of us ignore the counterbalancing up moves during this period.
The total return for The Nagle Market Plus Fund for its first two years has been positive. Unfortunately, equities have underperformed the long term average for returns on the U.S. equity market. It is evident, that in periods of severe market stress, a broad based equity portfolio will keep risk (variance) lower than an investment in individual stocks or subsets of the market. Another point worth noting is that with the negative effect of credit downgrades and low, but rising, interest rates the return on fixed income investments has been minimal or even negative.. Compare that to the return of –10% to -20% in Real Estate or some sub sectors of the market and individual stocks that had returns of anywhere from -30% to -60%. I think if you have noticed The Nagle Total Market Fund participates when the overall market rebounds and is designed to perform when the economy resumes its historical long term trend.
One last note for those that worry because they think the U.S. is on a permanent decline. Regardless of whether that is the case or not, the largest companies in the U.S. equity market are involved in the global economy. As one long time market investor noted; England peaked in 1912 and Holland peaked in 1617 and both economies and societies have survived and have a first rate standard of living.
As always, feel free to contact me with any questions about The Nagle Total Market Fund.
Sincerely,
Peter J Nagle, President-The Nagle Funds

NAGLE TOTAL MARKET PLUS FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2008 (UNAUDITED)
Note 1. Organization
The Nagle Total Market Plus Fund (the “Fund”), is a diversified series of Nagle Funds (the “Trust”), an open-end regulated investment company, that was organized as an Ohio business trust on January 9, 2006. The Trust is permitted to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest of separate series. The Fund is the only series of funds currently authorized by the Trustees. The Fund commenced investment operations on June 14, 2006. The Fund’s investment objective is long-term total return. The Fund’s principal investment strategy is to invest in a diversified portfolio of stocks by purchasing exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). The investment advisor to the Fund is Peter J. Nagle (the “Advisor”).
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies employed by the Fund in preparing its financial statements:
Security Valuation- Equity securities generally are valued by using market quotations, but may be valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service when the Advisor believes such prices accurately reflect the fair market value of such securities. Securities that are traded on any stock exchange or on the NASDAQ over-the-counter market are generally valued by the pricing service at the last quoted sale price. Lacking a last sale price, an equity security is generally valued by the pricing service at its last bid price. When market quotations are not readily available, when the Advisor determines that the market quotation or the price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the current market value, or when restricted or illiquid securities are being valued, such securities are valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees has adopted guidelines for good faith pricing, and has delegated to the Advisor the responsibility for determining fair value prices, subject to review by the Board of Trustees.
Fixed income securities generally are valued by using market quotations, but may be valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service when the Advisor believes such prices accurately reflect the fair market value of such securities. A pricing service utilizes electronic data processing techniques based on yield spreads relating to securities with similar characteristics to determine prices for normal institutional-size trading units of debt securities without regard to sale or bid prices. If the Advisor decides that a price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the fair market value of the securities, when prices are not readily available from a pricing service, or when restricted or illiquid securities are being valued, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor, subject to review of the Board of Trustees. Short term investme nts in fixed income securities with maturities of less than 60 days when acquired, or which subsequently are within 60 days of maturity, are valued by using the amortized cost method of valuation, which the Board of Trustees has determined will represent fair value.
In accordance with the Trust’s good faith pricing guidelines the Advisor is required to consider all appropriate factors relevant to the value of securities for which its has determined other pricing sources are not available or reliable as described above. No single standard for determining fair value controls since fair value depends upon circumstances of each individual case. As a general principle the current fair value of securities being valued by the Advisor would appear to be the amount which the owner might reasonable expect to receive for them upon current sale. Methods which are in accord with this principle may, for example, be based on (i) a multiple of earnings; (ii) a discount from market or similar freely traded security (including a derivative security or a basket of securities traded on other markets, exchanges or amount dealers); or (iii) yield to maturity with respect to debt issue s, or a combination of these and other methods.
In September 2006, 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 disclosure about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. In accordance with SFAS No. 157, fair value is defined as the price that would be received by the Fund upon selling an asset or paid by the Fund to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In the absence of a principal market for the asset or liability, the assumption is that the transaction occurs on the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. SFAS No. 157 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the assumptions , also known as "inputs," to valuation techniques used by market participants to measure fair value. The term "inputs" refers broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value (such as pricing model) and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The valuation techniques used to measure fair value should m aximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in three levels with the highest priority given to Level 1 and the lowest priority given to Level 3: Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities, Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) and Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2008 in valuing the Fund's assets carried at fair value:
Investments Other Financial
Valuation Inputs: In Securities Instruments
Level 1 – Quoted Prices $3,184,488 $ -
Level 2 – Significant Other Observable Inputs - -
Level 3 – Significant Unobservable Inputs - -
Total $3,184,488 $ -
Share Valuation- The price (net asset value) of the shares of the Fund is normally determined as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern time on each day the Fund is open for business and on any other day on which there is sufficient trading in the Fund’s securities to materially affect the net asset value. The Fund is normally open for business on every day except Saturdays, Sundays and the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Day, Presidents Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Security Transaction Timing- Security transactions are recorded on the dates transactions are entered into (the trade dates). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recognized on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. The Fund uses the identified cost basis in computing gain or loss on sale of investment securities. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the life of the respective securities. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends are provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.
Repurchase agreements- In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Fund’s policy that its custodian take possession of the underlying collateral securities, the fair value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest, at all times. If the seller defaults, and the fair value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.
Option Writing- When the 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 fair value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from investments. 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 security or currency in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Fund. The Fund as writer of an option bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
Short Sales- The Fund may sell a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the fair value of that security. When the Fund sells a security short, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale. A gain, limited to the price at which the Fund sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in size, will be recognized upon the termination of a short sale.
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 market values 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). 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 security. The Fund recognizes a gain or loss equal to the daily variation margin. Should market conditions move unexpectedly, the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts a nd 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.
Income Taxes- The Fund intends to continue to qualify each year as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. By so qualifying, the Fund will not be subject to federal income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and any realized capital gains. It is the Fund's policy to distribute annually, prior to the end of the calendar year, dividends sufficient to satisfy excise tax requirements of the Internal Revenue Service. This Internal Revenue Service requirement may cause an excess of distributions over the book year-end accumulated income.
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 ex-dividend date.
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.
Other- Generally accepted accounting principles require that permanent financial reporting tax differences relating to shareholder distributions be reclassified to paid in capital.
Note 3. Investment Advisory and Distribution Agreements
The Fund has a management agreement with the Advisor to furnish investment advisory and management services to the Fund. The Fund will pay the Advisor a monthly fee based on the Fund’s average daily net assets at the annual rate of 0.75%. The Advisor has agreed to waive his management fee and reimburse expenses to the extent that the Fund’s total annual operating expenses exceed 1.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets through April 30, 2009. The Advisor’s obligation to reimburse expenses excludes brokerage fees and commissions, taxes, borrowing costs (such as (a) interest and (b) dividend expenses on securities sold short), any direct expenses (such as expenses incurred by other investment companies in which the Fund invests) and extraordinary expenses. Any waiver or reimbursement by the Advisor is subject to repayment by the Fund within three fiscal years following the fisca l year in which 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 six months ended June 30, 2008, the Advisor earned advisory fees of $13,151. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, in the aggregate, the Advisor waived and/or reimbursed the Fund a total of $21,764. At June 30, 2008, the Advisor owed the Fund $27,654.
The Fund has adopted a Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended whereby the Fund may finance activities which are primarily intended to result in the sale of the Fund's shares, including, but not limited to: advertising, printing of prospectuses and reports for prospective shareholders, preparation and distribution of advertising materials and sales literature, and payments to dealers and shareholder servicing agents who enter into agreements with the Fund. The Fund may incur such distribution expenses at the rate of 0.25% per annum of the Fund's average net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Plan accrued fees of $4,384, of which all were waived.
Note 4. Related Party Transactions
Peter J. Nagle is the Advisor and also serves as a trustee and officer of the Trust. Mr. Nagle receives benefits from the Advisor resulting from management fees paid to the Advisor by the Fund.

Purchases and sales of options aggregated $0 and $13,560, respectively.There were no purchases and sales of U.S. Government obligations.
Note 8. Tax Matters
For Federal income tax purposes, the cost of investments owned at June 30, 2008 was $3,340,363.
At June 30, 2008, the composition of unrealized appreciation (the excess of value over tax cost) and depreciation (the excess of tax cost over value) including positions in securities sold short and options written was as follows:
Appreciation | Depreciation | Net Appreciation(Depreciation) |
$32,544 | ($188,419) | $(155,875) |
As of June 30, 2008, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
| Value |
Undistributed Net Investment Income | $ 5,448 |
Realized Losses | (11,063) |
Unrealized depreciation on investments; options and securities sold short | $(345,958) |
| $(351,573) |
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders- The Fund records all dividends and distributions payable to shareholders on the ex-dividend date.
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. 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 the fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of 1940 Act. As of June 30, 2008, the Schrems family, in aggregate, owned approximately 32% of the Fund and may be deemed to control the Fund.
Note 10. New Accounting Pronouncements
The Fund adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48 – Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on January 1, 2007. FASB Interpretation No. 48 requires that the tax effects of certain tax positions to be recognized. These tax positions must meet a “more likely than not” standard that based on their technical merits, they have a more than 50 percent likelihood of being sustained upon examination. At adoption, the financial statements must be adjusted to reflect only those tax positions that are more likely than not of being sustained. Management of the Fund does not believe that any adjustments were necessary to the financial statements at adoption.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, January 1, 2008 through June 30, 2008. |
| | | | | |
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. |
| | | | | |
| Beginning Account Value | Ending Account Value | Expenses Paid During the Period * | | |
| January 1, 2008 | June 30, 2008 | January 1, 2008 to June 30, 2008 | | |
| | | | | |
Actual | $1,000.00 | $900.88 | $5.91 | | |
Hypothetical (5% Annual | | | | | |
Return before expenses) | $1,000.00 | $1,018.65 | $6.27 | | |
| | | | | |
* Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 1.25%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). |
