CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
The Asset Management Fund (“AMF” and each series, a “Fund”) family of no load institutional mutual Funds is pleased to present shareholders the 2011 Annual Report.
Many of the trends we focused on in last year’s Market Overview remained at work in 2011 as another year of economic and political uncertainty unfolded. Investors continue to be challenged by events that have little precedent in the sphere of the G-20 world: sovereign debt defaults, political system breakdown, and economic stagnation. Seismic shifts in the distribution of economic and political power are rapidly changing the ability of countries to respond to these problems to assuage the markets. And when investors are faced with situations outside of their comfort zone, they typically react cautiously. Risk-on one day, risk-off the next.
While the U.S. is starting to emerge from its economic malaise, the crisis engulfing Europe is without precedent. In our view, there’s little doubt that Europe is headed for recession; the impact on the U.S. will be a function of how far EC leaders are willing to go to salvage the Euro by enforcing fiscal discipline on the weaker members. And with the economic outlook in China growing more uncertain, the U.S. has to look internally for ways to spur growth. New home construction, typically a catalyst to growth in recoveries, will help in 2012 but is unlikely to be the cure. More than ever, we need leadership out of Washington to put policies in place to spur economic growth. Unfortunately, the upcoming election cycle may limit meaningful action from Congress and the Administration, leaving the Fed with its blunt force tools to do the heavy lifting.
With the U.S. likely still several years away from a robust recovery, we expect that interest rates on direct government debt will remain at relatively low rates for the foreseeable future. However, financial company deleveraging means yields on government mortgage-backed securities should remain relatively attractive. With the AMF fixed income Funds increasing their focus on these securities, we continue to look to maximize shareholder value while vigilantly managing risk exposures.

MARKET OVERVIEW
October 31, 2011
After an energy cost-induced economic growth slowdown to start the year in the U.S., the economy has been accelerating all year, albeit at a slow pace. Large U.S. financial institutions, while still “Too Big To Fail”, are profitable, leverage is down, and credit is (slowly) expanding. Many have made great headway to the Basel II-induced deleveraging, so a “Lehman event” (i.e., the insolvency of a single firm generating massive negative feedback into the financial system) seems unlikely. However, headwinds from Europe give us pause in declaring a broad recovery, and the lack of employment growth remains a significant concern for the U.S.
The engineering by the Fed of multi-generational lows in interest rates is undoubtedly helping housing as well as corporations and state and municipal governments (we think households, in the aggregate, would probably prefer higher rates at this point to generate more income from savings). While many prognosticators point to the still historic highs in nominal debt relative to GDP and income, we counter those concerns with the fact that much of this debt is now longer term, fixed rate debt, and that the carrying costs of household debt is at a twenty year low. While high nominal debt balances was certainly a key cause of the massive de-leveraging in 2008-09, equally critical was the staggering mismatch between asset quality, liquidity, and maturity relative to liabilities.
Alas, given the preference of investors to own short term debt, someone has to be exposed to higher rates. Today, that entity is the Federal Reserve System and the U.S. Government. The Fed’s $2.8 trillion balance sheet holds a staggering amount of interest rate risk. The same goes for the U.S. federal government. When interest rates rise, the finances of both these entities will deteriorate rapidly. In some ways, all we’ve done over the past four years is move the credit problem from corporations and households up to federal government. We believe the Fed is facing the “mother-of-all conflicts of interest:” once they start to raise rates, they will be reducing the carry imbedded in their portfolio (the current annualized earnings of nearly $100 billion are used to reduce the federal budget deficit, by the way). The Fed’s portfolio will also experience mark-to-market losses; while that’s not economically important, it will be politically crucial, and once they hike rates above the coupon on their holdings, they will be generating real losses. The federal deficit is benefitting from near zero interest rates, but once rates are normalized the burden to the government will be all too real. Getting the U.S. national debt problems under control has never been more critical. Given the low level of interest rates, the AMF funds have generally been positioned towards the lower end of their interest rate risk targets; with hindsight, the funds would have earned some additional income had we taken on more interest rate exposure.
Of course, Congress can’t complain too much about potential losses at the Fed given the staggering losses coming out of FHLMC and FNMA (and GNMA may be next). Cumulative losses at these institutions will eventually exceed $200 billion. We are surprised at the slow pace that GSE reform is moving through Congress; this lack of clarity is slowing the recovery of the mortgage securitization market. The Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP), the administration’s program to help underwater and credit-impaired borrowers access lower mortgage rates, has been only moderately successful. Even with all of the government effort to assist homeowners with weak credit to refinance their mortgage debt, our research tells us that prepayment rates will continue to be below historic norms for the foreseeable future. The funds, which benefitted in 2011 from exposure to higher coupons, should continue to focus on these assets in 2012.

MARKET OVERVIEW
October 31, 2011
Some important changes have been made to the AMF fixed income funds over the past year. The funds are much more focused on government and government agency securities. For example, the Ultra Short Mortgage Fund, the largest fund in the AMF family, will no longer invest in private label mortgage-backed securities. Most of the fund’s private label MBS holdings were sold in late 2010; while prices continued to climb in early 2011, they’ve declined sharply since then. Nonetheless, we believe that government and government agency MBS are attractive assets to own given their high credit quality and attractive yields.

Ultra Short Mortgage Fund
The investment guidelines of the fund were changed in 2011 such that the only securities eligible for purchase by the Fund are government and government agency securities with a focus on mortgage-backed securities. With the Fed on hold throughout the year, interest rate volatility for shorter maturity U.S. government securities was relatively muted. As such, the fund focused on purchasing fixed rate securities backed by fixed rate loans. These securities generated slightly more yield than securities backed by adjustable rate mortgages. Also, the fund purchased securities backed by loans which are expected to have lower prepayment rates given their inability to refinance. Many homeowners with older, higher coupon mortgage loans are unable to refinance due to high current loan-to-values or other credit problems. This is true even though the federal government has initiated a number of programs to assist borrowers to overcome these issues. We expect that these securities will continue to have attractive yields relative to their interest rate risk. The Fund was ranked in the 11th percentile and the 16th percentile of the Morningstar Ultra Short Bond category for the one year periods ended October 31, 2010 and October 31, 2011, respectively.*

AMF LARGE CAP EQUITY FUND REVIEW
October 31, 2011
During the one-year period ending October 31, 2011, the AMF Large Cap Equity Fund (Class AMF) produced a total return of 8.66%. Total return figures for the benchmark indices were 5.33% for the Morningstar Large Blend category and 8.09% for the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index for the same period. This performance placed the Fund in the top 13th percentile ranking of the Morningstar Large Cap Blend category for the one-year period ending 10/31/11.* Total return assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains and the deduction of all applicable fees and expenses.
During the past twelve months, the domestic economy continued to make progress following the “Great Recession” of 2008-2009, however, the pace of growth deteriorated from the prior year period. Throughout the year, especially in the second half, the risk of a double dip recession intensified, although one has been avoided thus far. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth was barely positive at 0.4% for the first quarter of 2011. It subsequently improved to 1.3% in the second quarter and 2.0% in the third, although the rate of growth was not enough to make a dent in the high unemployment rate which remained above 9%. Consequently, consumer confidence declined in the latter half of the year, nearing its 2009 recession lows, due to the continued poor employment environment, weak income growth, increased inflationary pressures, and the absence of any housing recovery. Consumer confidence was also negatively affected by the lack of progress by congressional members on a deficit reduction plan during the summer which ultimately led to a downgrade of the U.S. credit rating from AAA by Standard & Poor’s ratings agency.
Further compounding issues were continuing concerns regarding Europe’s debt crisis, which led to a weakening of the European banking sector and caused an economic slowdown in Europe which may ultimately evolve into a recession. Economic growth worldwide will likely feel repercussions from the contentious European situation. Headlines out of Europe directly affected our stock market in the form of significant volatility especially during the late summer months. Swings of 1-3% were not uncommon on a daily basis during the past three

months. In order to address the weakening domestic economy, and likely some of the financial market volatility, the Federal Reserve maintained its accommodative stance keeping interest rates at near zero. It also announced that it will keep rates this low through mid-2013. Additionally, the Fed began purchasing government and mortgage securities with longer durations in an attempt to lower long-term interest rates. As a result, the 10-year Treasury yield dropped below 2% in September and October.
Even as economic growth stalled and stock market volatility increased, corporate profit growth remained strong throughout the year. After reducing cost structures during the 2008 - 2009 recession, business profits expanded as revenue growth slowly resumed. Corporate managers remained cautious due to elevated consumer uncertainty, increased government regulation and a lack of clarity regarding future taxation. As a result, capital expenditures were tepid and hiring was limited, meanwhile, productivity continued to improve. This led to strong cash flow generation which has resulted in significant growth of corporate cash balances as well as increased dividend growth and shareholder repurchases. High quality corporate credits have also been actively refinancing their liabilities at these historically low interest rates, further improving their balance sheets.
The AMF Large Cap Equity Fund’s investment philosophy focuses on investing in high quality, large capitalization common stocks. These companies typically have lower risk attributes due to their consistency of earnings and dividends. This investment approach results in the Fund having a higher concentration in industry sectors that are less sensitive to the economy and a lower concentration in sectors more sensitive to the economy. During rapidly rising markets, industry sectors most sensitive to the economy often outperform, while during falling markets, sectors least sensitive to the economy tend to outperform. Additionally, during periods of excessive volatility, such as those experienced during this past August and September, the Fund’s lower risk attributes typically have a dampening effect on the volatility. The relative performance of the Fund throughout the past year was consistent with these correlations.
Equity investment return can ultimately be defined as the fundamental growth in a company’s intrinsic value per share combined with any change in the discount or premium associated with that value. Over the short-term, stock price movements are largely determined by changes in the discount or premium associated with intrinsic value, which is largely influenced by investor sentiment. However, over the long-term, business fundamentals tend to have the largest impact on investment performance. The role of the Fund’s portfolio management team is to identify businesses that offer attractive long-term fundamental growth prospects that are available at attractive valuations. The portfolio is managed from a business-like perspective. The Fund’s capital is invested in portions of public companies, each of which generates cash flow and earnings for its shareholders. A vast majority of our ownership stakes pay out a portion of earnings in the form of dividends. Many of our companies also actively repurchase their own shares, which directly increases our ownership percentage.
The portfolio management team carefully monitors fundamental progress of the portfolio utilizing “owner earnings” much like an individual business owner would in his or her own company. Owner earnings are simply the earnings per share times the number of shares owned for each of the portfolio holdings. Since the AMF Fund is an open-ended mutual fund, the owner earnings must be converted into owner earnings per AMF share to be comparable over time periods. As of 10/31/11, owner earnings per AMF share increased by 19% versus

the prior year ending 10/31/10. This fundamental return was significantly higher than the total return of the Fund during the period. This was primarily due to a contraction in the collective price-to-earnings multiple for our portfolio holdings over the 12-month period. Cash dividends from portfolio companies were also received throughout the year and are an integral part of total return. The weighted average dividend yield of our portfolio holdings has increased over the past year.
In keeping with our focus on long-term ownership of high quality businesses, our portfolio turnover was quite low this past year at 7%. This was lower than our average of 14% during the prior three years. We will consider eliminating holdings in the portfolio if we believe current market value exceeds our estimate of intrinsic value, if fundamentals deteriorate measurably such that intrinsic value becomes permanently impaired, or if better opportunities exist for alternative investment. During the year, our businesses delivered favorable fundamental performance without attracting overly optimistic valuations. We did not see a compelling reason to eliminate any of our portfolio holdings during the year. However, we did add a new holding to the portfolio during early 2011. General Mills, the food products company best known for its Big G cereals, Progresso soup, Green Giant, Pillsbury and Yoplait brands, is our most recent addition to the portfolio. The company’s consistent earnings growth, attractive dividend, wide profit margins and high returns on capital and equity make this company a solid addition to the AMF Large Cap Equity Fund.
After nearly 20 years of managing this equity fund, your portfolio management team remains committed to the investment philosophy of investing in high quality, large capitalization companies for long-term wealth creation. Given current valuations associated with common stocks in general and high quality dividend paying companies in particular, we believe it is an opportune time to be a long-term investor, especially if one agrees with our outlook for continued slow economic growth and given the historically low interest rate environment.

ASSET MANAGEMENT FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2011
Asset Management Fund (the “Trust”) was reorganized as a Delaware statutory trust on September 30, 1999, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a diversified open-end management company. As of October 31, 2011, the Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares in seven separate series: the Money Market Fund, the Ultra Short Mortgage Fund, the Ultra Short Fund, the Short U.S. Government Fund, the Intermediate Mortgage Fund, the U.S. Government Mortgage Fund and the Large Cap Equity Fund (referred to individually as a “Fund” and collectively as the “Funds”). Each of the Funds, except the Large Cap Equity Fund, offer a single class of shares. The Large Cap Equity Fund is authorized to sell two classes of shares: Class AMF Shares and Class H Shares. Class AMF and Class H Shares of the Large Cap Equity Fund have the same rights and obligations except: (i) Class AMF Shares bear a distribution fee, while Class H Shares do not have any distribution fee, which will cause Class AMF Shares to have a higher expense ratio and to pay lower dividends than those related to Class H Shares; (ii) other expenses, which are determined to properly apply to one class of shares upon approval by the Board of Trustees, will be borne solely by the class to which such expenses are attributable; and (iii) each class will have exclusive voting rights with respect to the matters relating to its own distribution arrangements.
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide general indemnification. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against a Fund. The Trust maintains an insurance policy that insures its officers and trustees against certain liabilities.
A. Significant accounting policies are as follows:
SECURITY VALUATION
Money Market Fund:
Fund securities are valued under the amortized cost method as allowed by Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, which approximates current market value. Under this method, securities are valued at cost when purchased and thereafter a constant accretion/amortization rate of any discount or premium is recorded until maturity of the security as long as the calculation approximates fair value. Open-end mutual fund investments are valued at their most recently calculated net asset value. The Fund seeks to maintain a net asset value per share (“NAV”) at $1.00.
Ultra Short Mortgage Fund, Ultra Short Fund, Short U.S. Government Fund, Intermediate Mortgage Fund and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund:
The Funds’ debt securities (except short-term debt instruments maturing within 60 days, which are valued at amortized cost which approximates fair value) are valued at market quotations or values obtained from independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (“Board”). Pricing services may use various techniques to value securities which take into account a variety of factors including yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity date, type of issue, trading characteristics and other data, including broker quotes. If a pricing service is unable to provide valuations for a particular security or securities, or the Adviser has determined that such valuations are unreliable, the Funds will fair value the security or securities pursuant to the Board approved fair valuation methodology of the Adviser.
Within the fair value pricing methodology used by the Adviser, among the more specific factors that are considered in determining the fair value of investments in debt instruments are: (1) information obtained with respect to market transactions in such securities or comparable securities; (2) the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable securities; (3) the fundamental analytical data relating to the investment;
45
ASSET MANAGEMENT FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
OCTOBER 31, 2011
(4) quotations from broker/dealers, yields, maturities, ratings and various relationships between securities; and (5) evaluation of the forces which influence the market in which these securities are purchased and sold. The fair valuation process also takes into consideration factors such as interest rate changes, movements in credit spreads, default rate assumptions, prepayment assumptions, type and quality of collateral, and security seasoning. Imprecision in estimating fair value can impact the amount of unrealized appreciation or depreciation recorded for a particular security, and differences in the assumptions used could result in a different determination of fair value, and those differences could be material.
Fair value pricing, including prices obtained from pricing services, is inherently a process of estimates and judgments. Fair value prices may fluctuate less than market prices due to technical issues which may impact the prices at which the Funds can purchase or sell securities. Market prices can be impacted by technical factors such as short term changes in market liquidity and volatility which may not directly impact fair value prices. There can be no assurance that a Fund could purchase or sell a portfolio of investments at the fair value price used to calculate the Fund’s NAV. In addition, changes in the value of portfolio investments priced at fair value may be less frequent and of greater magnitude than changes in the price of securities that trade frequently in the marketplace, resulting in potentially greater NAV volatility.
While the Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of a Fund’s NAV that fairly reflects security values at the time of pricing, the Trust cannot ensure that fair value prices would accurately reflect the price that a Fund could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security, particularly in a forced or distressed sale.
Open-end mutual fund investments are valued at their most recently calculated net asset value. Short-term instruments of sufficient credit quality
maturing within 60 days of the valuation date will be valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
Large Cap Equity Fund:
Securities traded on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the official closing price as reported by NASDAQ. Securities traded on national exchanges are valued at the last reported sale price on the exchange where the security is principally traded. In the case of over-the-counter securities, securities are valued at the mean between closing bid and asked prices as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (normally 4:00 PM Eastern time). Open-end mutual fund investments are valued at their most recently calculated net asset value. Short-term instruments of sufficient credit quality maturing within 60 days of the valuation date are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which (i) quotations are not readily available, or (ii) are determined by the Adviser not to reflect their fair market value are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee under the direction of the Board.
The Funds use a three tier fair value hierarchy that is dependent upon the various “inputs” used to determine the value of the Funds’ investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| • | | Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets |
| • | | Level 2 — other significant inputs (including quoted prices of similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
| • | | Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments.) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, short-term debt securities of sufficient credit quality

ASSET MANAGEMENT FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
OCTOBER 31, 2011
maturing within 60 days are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the 1940 Act. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current
fair value of a security, but since this valuation is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of October 31, 2011:

ASSET MANAGEMENT FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
OCTOBER 31, 2011
As of October 31, 2011, there were no level 3 securities held by the Funds.
The Trust’s policy is to disclose significant transfers between levels based on valuations at the end of the reporting period. There were no significant transfers between Level 1 or 2 as of October 31, 2011, based on levels assigned to securities on October 31, 2010.
LIQUIDITY AND VALUATION OF CERTAIN SECURITIES
While liquidity for government securities remains quite strong, the involvement of the federal government in the mortgage and real estate markets continues to create uncertainty for investors by reducing market liquidity. Additionally, changes in the securitization process, and changes in the mandate of the government sponsored mortgage entities (GNMA, FHLMC, and FNMA, or the “GSEs”) could impact the Fund’s future performance. For example, the federal government continues to evaluate novel strategies for modifying loan principal balances for many classes of residential mortgage-backed securities, and these strategies could negatively impact the valuation of certain holdings of the Funds. Weaker than expected economic growth or further increases in unemployment could result in an increase in loan delinquencies and home foreclosures and reduce home prices. This may also lead to accelerated loan buyouts by the GSEs, which could negatively impact fund performance. In general, these shifts in government housing and mortgage policy, particularly if they are unanticipated, could reduce market liquidity which would likely lead to lower prices for the securities held by the Funds. Illiquid securities generally are those that cannot be sold or disposed of in an orderly fashion within seven calendar days at approximately the price at which they are valued. Because the market price of illiquid securities generally is more difficult to estimate than that of more liquid securities, illiquid securities may be sold at prices that differ from the value assigned to them. This illiquidity of portfolio securities may
result in the Funds incurring greater losses on the sale of some portfolio securities than under more stable market conditions. Such losses could adversely impact a Fund’s net asset value.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
Obligations of the U.S. Government or other obligations that are not subject to any investment limitation on the part of national banks may be purchased from government securities dealers or the custodian bank, subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date and price. The value of collateral underlying the repurchase agreement will always be at least equal to the repurchase price, including any accrued interest earned on the repurchase agreement. If the counterparty defaults, and the fair value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by Funds may be delayed or limited.
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED OR DELAYED-DELIVERY BASIS
Each Fund, except the Money Market Fund, may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. In when-issued transactions, securities are bought or sold during the period between the announcement of an offering and the issuance and payment date of the securities. When securities are purchased on a delayed-delivery basis, the price of the securities is fixed at the time the commitment to purchase is made, but settlement may take place at a future date. By the time of delivery, securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be valued at less than the purchase price. At the time when-issued or delayed-delivery securities are purchased, the Fund must set aside funds in a segregated account to pay for the purchase, and until acquisition, the Fund will not earn any income on the securities that it purchased.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
OCTOBER 31, 2011
Intermediate Mortgage Fund and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund:
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly. Net short-term and long-term capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually.
Large Cap Equity Fund:
Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid at least quarterly. Net short-term and long-term capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually.
For all Funds, distributions from net investment income and from net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature (e.g. reclass of dividend distribution and return of capital), such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Distributions to shareholders that exceed net investment income and net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as distributions of capital.
FEDERAL TAXES
No provision is made for Federal income taxes as it is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes.
For all open tax years and all major taxing jurisdictions, management of the Funds has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Open tax years are those that are open for examination by taxing authorities (i.e., generally the
last four tax year ends and the interim tax period since then). Furthermore, management of the Funds is also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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.
OTHER
Investment transactions are accounted for no later than one business day after the trade date. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on the trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis, amortization and accretion is recognized based on the anticipated effective maturity date, and the cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and income tax purposes. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage- and asset-backed securities are recorded as adjustments to interest income in the Statement of Operations.

ASSET MANAGEMENT FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
OCTOBER 31, 2011
The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to several tax rules impacting the Fund. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending October, 31, 2012. Although the Act provides several benefits, including the unlimited carry- forward of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of the fund’s pre-enactment capital loss carry-forward may expire without being utilized due to the fact that post-enactment capital losses get utilized before pre-enactment capital loss carry-forward. Relevant information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund, if any, will be contained within the “Federal Tax Information” section of the notes to financial statements beginning in 2012 reporting periods.
Dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for deferral of losses on wash sales. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate components of net assets in the period that these differences arise.
F. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On May 12, 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (“ASU 2011-04”), modifying Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820. At the same time, the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) issued International Financial Reporting Standard (“IFRS”) 13, Fair Value Measurement. The objective of the FASB and IASB is convergence of their guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures. Specifically, ASU 2011-04 requires reporting entities to disclose 1) the amounts of and reasons for any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, and 2) for Level 3 fair
value measurements: a) quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs used, b) a description of the valuation procedures used by the reporting entity, and c) a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs if a change in those inputs might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The effective date of ASU 2011-04 is for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of this requirement and the impact it will have on the Funds’ financial statement disclosures.
G. DISTRIBUTOR LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On December 28, 2010, West Texas National Bank (“WTNB”) commenced a FINRA arbitration proceeding against Shay Financial. WTNB alleges violation of state securities laws, negligent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, and other theories, and seeks damages in excess of approximately $27.6 million relating to alleged losses from investments in mortgage-backed securities.
On August 18, 2011, Citizens Community Federal (“CCF”) commenced a FINRA arbitration proceeding against Shay Financial. CCF alleges breach of fiduciary duties, negligent misrepresentation, and seeks damages in excess of approximately $14 million relating to alleged losses from investments in mortgage-backed securities.
On September 12, 2011, El Dorado Savings Bank (“EDSB”) commenced a FINRA arbitration proceeding against Shay Financial, Rodger D. Shay, and Rodger D. Shay Jr. EDSB alleges violations of federal and state securities laws, and other theories, seeking damages in excess of approximately $3-$5 million for alleged losses on investments in AMF Funds.
On November 11, 2011, Town North Bank, N.A. (“TNB”) commenced a civil action in the U.S. District Court, Northern District of Texas, against Shay Financial and others. TNB alleges violations of federal securities law, fraud, and breach of fiduciary duty, and seeks approximately $64 million in damages from Shay Financial relating to alleged losses from invest-

ments in mortgage-backed securities and collateralized debt obligations.
There is no assurance that additional legal actions arising out of these circumstances will not be filed against Shay Assets Management, Inc., Shay Financial Services Inc., Rodger D. Shay and/or Rodger D. Shay, Jr. The Distributor is unable to predict the potential range of monetary exposure, if any, but believe that claims asserted in each of the above-referenced actions are without merit and each
intends to vigorously defend itself against all actions. However, an unfavorable result could have a material adverse effect on the Distributor.
H. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Funds evaluated subsequent events from October 31, 2011, through the date these financial statements were issued and available. There were no subsequent events to report that would have a material impact on the Funds’ financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Trustees and Shareholders of
the Asset Management Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Money Market Fund, Ultra Short Mortgage Fund, Ultra Short Fund, Short U.S. Government Fund, Intermediate Mortgage Fund, U.S. Government Mortgage Fund, and Large Cap Equity Fund (collectively referred to as the “Funds’’) at October 31, 2011, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements’’) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. The financial highlights of the Large Cap Equity Fund for the year ended December 31, 2006 were audited by other auditors, whose report, dated February 20, 2007, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

B. EXPENSE COMPARISON:
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, including management 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 from May 1, 2011 through October 31, 2011.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, 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 table 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 table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each 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 this 5% hypothetical example
with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
