ITEM 1: REPORTS TO STOCKHOLDERS.

Equity Series
Shareholder Expense Example
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 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 Series’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Series’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Series 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
| | | | | | |
| | BEGINNING ACCOUNT VALUE 11/1/17 | | ENDING ACCOUNT VALUE 4/30/18 | | EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD* 11/1/17-4/30/18 |
Actual | | $1,000.00 | | $1,050.30 | | $5.34 |
Hypothetical | | | | | | |
(5% return before expenses) | | $1,000.00 | | $1,019.59 | | $5.26 |
*Expenses are equal to the Series’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period) of 1.05%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Series’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

Equity Series
Notes to Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Equity Series (the “Series”) is a no-load diversified series of Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”). The Fund is organized in Maryland and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.
The Series’ investment objective is to provide long-term growth of capital.
The Fund’s Advisor is Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”). Shares of the Series are offered to investors, clients and employees of the Advisor and its affiliates. The total authorized capital stock of the Fund consists of 15 billion shares of common stock each having a par value of $0.01. As of April 30, 2018, 10.9 billion shares have been designated in total among 38 series, of which 200 million have been designated as Equity Series Class S common stock.
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Series. The Series is an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 - Investment Companies, which is part of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Security Valuation
Portfolio securities, including domestic equities, listed on an exchange other than the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued at the latest quoted sales price of the exchange on which the security is primarily traded. Securities not traded on valuation date or securities not listed on an exchange are valued at the latest quoted bid price provided by the Fund’s pricing service. Securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued in accordance with the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.
Short-term investments that mature in sixty days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value per share on valuation date.
Volume and level of activity in established markets for an asset or liability are evaluated to determine whether recent transactions and quoted prices are determinative of fair value. Where there have been significant decreases in volume and level of activity, further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value. The Series measures fair value in these instances by the use of inputs and valuation techniques which may be based upon current market prices of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity and industry and/or expectation of future cash flows. As a result of trading in relatively thin markets and/or markets that experience significant volatility, the prices used by the Series to value these securities may differ from the value that would be realized if these securities were sold, and the differences could be material.
Securities for which representative valuations or prices are not available from the Series’ pricing service may be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor under procedures approved by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such securities, the fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed. If trading or events occurring after the close of the principal market in which securities are traded are expected to materially affect the value of those securities, then they may be valued at their fair value, taking this trading or these events into account.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Series’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

There were no Level 2 or Level 3 securities held by the Series as of October 31, 2017 or April 30, 2018.
The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of the valuation levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the six months ended April 30, 2018.
New Accounting Guidance
In March 2017, the FASB issued amended guidance to shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance to the Series.
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the Series is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discounts using the effective interest method, is earned from settlement date and accrued daily.
Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Most expenses of the Fund can be attributed to a specific series. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the series in the Fund in such a manner as deemed equitable by the Fund’s Board, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense.
The Series uses the identified cost method for determining realized gain or loss on investments for both financial statement and federal income tax reporting purposes.
Federal Taxes
The Series’ policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. The Series is not subject to federal income tax or excise tax to the extent that the Series distributes to shareholders each year its taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, in accordance with requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax or excise tax has been made in the financial statements.
Management evaluates its tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of
12
Equity Series

Federal Taxes (continued)
measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Recognition of tax benefits of an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. At April 30, 2018, the Series has recorded no liability for net unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns.
The Series files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions, as required. No income tax returns are currently under investigation. The statute of limitations on the Series’ tax returns remains open for the years ended October 31, 2014 through October 31, 2017. The Series is 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.
Foreign Taxes
Based on the Series’ understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and currency purchase/repatriation transactions for foreign jurisdictions in which it invests, the Series will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign tax.
Distributions of Income and Gains
Distributions to shareholders of net investment income and net realized gains are made annually. An additional distribution may be necessary to avoid taxation of the Series. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Indemnifications
The Fund’s organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. | Transactions with Affiliates |
The Fund has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Advisor, for which the Series pays a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the Series’ average daily net assets.
Under the Agreement, personnel of the Advisor provide the Series with advice and assistance in the choice of investments and the execution of securities transactions, and otherwise maintain the Series’ organization. The Advisor also provides the Fund with necessary office space and fund administration and support services. The salaries of all officers of the Fund (except a percentage of the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer’s salary, which is paid by the Fund), and of all Directors who are “affiliated persons” of the Fund, or of the Advisor, and all personnel of the Fund, or of the Advisor, performing services relating to research, statistical and investment activities, are paid by the Advisor. Each “non-affiliated” Director receives an annual stipend, which is allocated among all the active series of the Fund. In addition, these Directors also receive a fee per Board meeting attended plus a fee for each committee meeting attended and are reimbursed for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with attending such meetings. The Fund also has an Audit Committee Chair, Governance & Nominating Committee Chair and Lead Independent Director who each receive an additional annual stipend for this role.
Shares of the Series are subject to a shareholder services fee in accordance with a shareholder services plan adopted by the Board. The shareholder services fee is intended to compensate financial intermediaries, including affiliates of the Fund, in connection with the provision of direct client service, personal services, maintenance of shareholder accounts and reporting

services. For these services, Shares of the Series pay a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of shares. The Fund has a Shareholder Services Agreement with the Advisor, for which the Advisor receives the shareholder services fee as stated above.
The Advisor has contractually agreed, until at least February 28, 2019, to waive its management fee and, if necessary, pay other operating expenses of the Series, exclusive of shareholder services fees, in order to maintain total direct annual fund operating expenses for the Series at no more than 0.80% of average daily net assets each year. Accordingly, the Advisor waived fees of $76,178 for the six months ended April 30, 2018, which is included as a reduction of expenses on the Statement of Operations. The Advisor is not eligible to recoup any expenses that have been waived or reimbursed in prior years.
Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc., a registered broker-dealer affiliate of the Advisor, acts as distributor for the Fund’s shares. The services of Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc. are provided at no additional cost to the Series.
Pursuant to a master services agreement dated March 1, 2017, the Fund pays the Advisor an annual fee related to fund accounting and administration of 0.0085% on the first $25 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); 0.0075% on the next $15 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); and 0.0065% of average daily net assets in excess of $40 billion (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); plus a base fee of $30,400 per series. Additionally, certain transaction and out-of-pocket expenses, including charges for reporting relating to the Fund’s compliance program, are charged. The Advisor has agreements with BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“BNY”) under which BNY serves as sub-accountant services agent.
Expenses not directly attributable to a series are allocated based on each series’ relative net assets or number of accounts, depending on the expense.
4. | Purchases and Sales of Securities |
For the six months ended April 30, 2018, purchases and sales of securities, other than U.S. Government securities and short-term securities, were $19,716,028 and $32,224,737 respectively. There were no purchases or sales of U.S. Government securities.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
At April 30, 2018, the Advisor and its affiliates owned 7.8% of the Series.
The Series may trade in instruments including written and purchased options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts and other derivatives in the normal course of investing activities to assist in managing exposure to various market risks. The Series may be subject to various elements of risk, which may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. These risks include: the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index; counterparty credit risk related to over the counter derivative counterparties’ failure to perform under contract terms; liquidity risk related to the lack of a liquid market for these

contracts allowing the fund to close out its position(s); and documentation risk relating to disagreement over contract terms. No such investments were held by the Series as of April 30, 2018.
Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in securities of domestic companies and the U.S. Government. These risks include revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of foreign companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of comparable domestic companies and the U.S. Government.
8. | Federal Income Tax Information |
The amount and characterization of certain income and capital gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. The Series may periodically make reclassifications among its capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryovers) under income tax regulations, without impacting the Series’ net asset value. Any such reclassifications are not reflected in the financial highlights.
The final determination of the tax character of current year distributions will be made at the conclusion of the fiscal year. The tax character of distributions paid for the year ended October 31, 2017, were as follows:
| | | | |
Long-term capital gains | | $ | 4,244,499 | |
At April 30, 2018, the identified cost of investments for federal income tax purposes, the resulting gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation, and the net unrealized appreciation were as follows:
| | | | | | |
| | Cost for federal income tax purposes | | $ | 64,134,580 | |
| | Unrealized appreciation | | | 14,465,793 | |
| | Unrealized depreciation | | | (2,737,180 | ) |

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement
(unaudited)
At the Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) Board of Directors’ (the “Board”) meeting, held on November 16, 2017, the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Fund and Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) was considered by the Board for renewal. In connection with the decision whether to renew the Agreement, a variety of material was provided to the Board in advance of the meeting for their review and consideration.
Representatives of the Advisor attended the meeting and presented additional oral information to the Board to assist the Board in its considerations. The discussion below outlines the materials and information presented to the Board in connection with the Board’s 2017 Annual consideration of the Agreement and the conclusions made by the Directors when determining to continue the Agreement.
| • | | The Board considered the nature and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Agreement for over 30 years including, among others: deciding what securities to purchase and sell for each Series; arranging for the purchase and sale of such securities by placing orders with broker-dealers; administering the affairs of the Fund (including the books and records of the Fund not maintained by third party service providers such as the custodian or transfer agent); arranging for the insurance coverage for the Fund; and supervising the preparation of tax returns, SEC filings (including registration statements) and reports to shareholders for the Fund. The Board also considered the Advisor’s personnel who perform services to the Fund, the strength of its compliance infrastructure, policies and procedures relating to compliance with securities regulations, reputation, expertise and resources in domestic and foreign financial markets. The Board discussed the quality of these services with representatives from the Advisor and concluded that the Advisor was performing its services to the Fund required under the Agreement in a reasonable manner. |
| • | | The Board considered the Advisor’s investments teams, including changes to the teams during the past year, investment team compensation and investment process. The Board considered the performance of each Series since its inception, as well as over multiple time periods including: one year, three year, five year, ten year, and current market cycle. A market cycle includes periods of both rising and falling markets. Returns for established benchmark indices for each Series were provided. In addition, the Board considered (and considers on a quarterly basis) a number of other factors relevant to performance at the meeting including: a peer group performance analysis consisting of Morningstar universes of mutual funds with similar investment objectives; the breadth of the Fund’s product offerings; and performance over reasonable time periods. The Board discussed with Representatives of the Advisor, short-term performance challenges in the Fund’s non-U.S. portfolios which have resulted in a downward trend in assets under management. After discussion, the Board concluded that the nature and quality of the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Fund, and the Series’ actual and comparative performance, especially over the current market cycle supported the renewal of the agreement. |
| • | | The Board considered the costs of the Advisor’s services and the profits of the Advisor as they relate to the Advisor’s services to the Fund under the Agreement. In reviewing the Advisor’s costs and profits, the Board discussed the Advisor’s revenues generated from the Fund and its expenses associated with providing the services under the Agreement. The Advisor presented the Board with information on firmwide investment management profitability to provide a comparison of the Advisor’s profitability from its Fund activities relative to its profitability from its other investment management business. In addition, the Board reviewed the Advisor’s expense allocation methodology used to calculate profitability since many of the Advisor’s resources and expenses are shared across the Advisor’s various investment management vehicles. The Board considered the Advisor’s expenses associated with Fund activities outside of the Agreement (such as expense reimbursements pursuant to expense caps and payments made by the Advisor to third party platforms on which shares of the Fund are available for purchase). After discussing the above costs and profits, the Board concluded that the Advisor’s profitability relating to its services provided under the Agreement was reasonable. |
| • | | The Board then considered whether economies of scale were being achieved by the Advisor with respect to its services to the Fund. The Board acknowledged the expense caps incorporated in the Fund’s current fee structure, which requires the Advisor to subsidize the expenses of the Series operating above their cap, noting that 26 Series of the Fund are currently receiving expense reimbursements from the Advisor. The Board concluded that based on the current fee structure and profitability, the Fund would need to grow in assets before the Advisor would be able to achieve meaningful economies of scale. |

| • | | The Board considered the fees and expenses of the various Series of the Fund. The Advisor provided the Board with information comparing each Series’ contractual management fees with the Advisor’s standard advisory fees for separate accounts and collective investment trusts. The Board considered that the range of services provided to the Series is more extensive than for the Advisor’s other clients due to additional infrastructure, administrative and regulatory requirements related to operating a mutual fund. The Advisor also presented the advisory fees and total expenses for each Series, including the advisory fee adjusted for any contractual expense waivers or reimbursements paid by the Advisor. The advisory fees, 12b-1 Distribution and Service Fees, other expenses (e.g. a combination of Shareholder Services Fees, routine operating expenses and Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses for fund-of-fund Series) and net expense ratios of each Series were compared and ranked (on both a mean and median basis) against funds of a similar size and with similar investment objectives and expense characteristics as disclosed on the Morningstar database. In addition, the Board considered fee reductions that went into effect for the Fund’s Target Series in October 2017, as well as projected fee and expense changes for certain Series approved by the Board in a prior Board meeting. These fee and expense changes would go into effect pursuant to a successful shareholder vote in 2018. Representatives of the Advisor discussed with the Board the comparisons and rankings of fees and net expense ratios for each Series of the Fund and the methodology behind the comparison. The Board considered the Advisor’s active portfolio management that results in portfolios that are more differentiated than the construction of their benchmarks. Based on their review of the information provided, the Board concluded that the fees and expenses of each Series of the Fund were reasonable on a comparative basis. |
| • | | The Board also considered the other benefits the Advisor derives from its relationship with the Fund. Such other benefits include participation in a joint insurance program, sharing of compensation expenses for certain shared personnel, relationships with large service providers and certain research services provided by soft dollars. The Board reviewed the broker-dealers who provided research to the Advisor and the products and services paid for, in whole or in part, using soft dollar commissions. Given the level of soft dollar transactions involving the Fund, the Board concluded that these additional benefits to the Advisor were reasonable. |
Based on the Board’s deliberations and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including a majority of Directors that are not “interested persons” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, concluded that the compensation under the Agreement was fair and reasonable in light of the services and expenses and such other matters as the Directors considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. Accordingly, the Board approved the renewal of the Agreement. In the course of their deliberations, the Directors did not identify any particular information that was all important or controlling.

Shareholder Expense Example
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the tables below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 Actual line for the Series and Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of the tables below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Class of the Series and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the Series and Class in which you have invested with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the Hypothetical lines of the tables are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

1Expenses are equal to each Class’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Expenses are based on the most recent fiscal half year. The Class’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.
2Expense ratios of the Class do not include fees and expenses indirectly incurred by the underlying funds. If these expenses were included, the expense ratios would have been higher.
3Assumes 5% annual return before expenses.

Target Income Series, Target 2015 Series, Target 2020 Series, Target 2025 Series, Target 2030 Series, Target 2035 Series, Target 2040 Series, Target 2045 Series, Target 2050 Series, Target 2055 Series and Target 2060 Series (each the “Series”) are no-load diversified series of Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”). The Fund is organized in Maryland and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), as amended, as an open-end management investment company.
Each Series seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing in a combination of other Manning & Napier mutual funds (the “Underlying Series”) according to a target asset allocation strategy. The Series are designed to provide single investment portfolios that adjust over time to meet the changing risk and return objectives of investors over their expected investment horizon. As the target retirement date approaches, the Series’ portfolios become more conservative with a larger fixed-income investment component. The financial statements of the Underlying Series should be read in conjunction with the Series’ financial statements.
Each Series is authorized to issue four classes of shares (Class K, R, I and R6). Each class of shares is substantially the same, except that class-specific distribution and shareholder servicing expenses are borne by the specific class of shares to which they relate.
The Fund’s Advisor is Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”). Shares of each Series are offered to investors and employees of the Advisor and its affiliates. The total authorized capital stock of the Fund consists of 15 billion shares of common stock each having a par value of $0.01. As of April 30, 2018, 10.9 billion shares have been designated in total among 38 series, of which 40 million have been designated in each of the Series for Class K, R and R6 common stock and 100 million have been designated in each of the Series for Class I common stock.
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Series. Each Series is an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 - Investment Companies, which is part of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Security Valuation
Investments in the Underlying Series are valued at their net asset value per share on valuation date. In the absence of the availability of a net asset value per share on the Underlying Series, security valuations may be determined in good faith by the Advisor under procedures approved by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).
Volume and level of activity in established markets for an asset or liability are evaluated to determine whether recent transactions and quoted prices are determinative of fair value. Where there have been significant decreases in volume and level of activity, further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value. The Series measure fair value in these instances by the use of inputs and valuation techniques which may be based upon current market prices of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity and industry and/or expectation of future cash flows. As a result of trading in relatively thin markets and/or markets that experience significant volatility, the prices used by the Series to value these securities may differ from the value that would be realized if these securities were sold, and the differences could be material.
Securities for which representative valuations or prices are not available from the Series’ pricing service may be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor under procedures approved by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Board. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such securities, the fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed. If trading or events occurring after the close of the principal market in which securities are traded are expected to materially affect the value of those securities, then they may be valued at their fair value, taking this trading or these events into account.

Security Valuation (continued)
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Series’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level on any input both individually and in aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the valuation levels used for major security types as of April 30, 2018 in valuing the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value:

There were no Level 2 or Level 3 securities held by any of the Series as of October 31, 2017 or April 30, 2018.
The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of the valuation levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the six months ended April 30, 2018.
New Accounting Guidance
In March 2017, the FASB issued amended guidance to shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance to the Series.
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Income and capital gains distributions from the Underlying Series, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Most expenses of the Fund can be attributed to a specific series. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the series in the Fund in such a manner as deemed equitable by the Fund’s Board, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense. Expenses included in the accompanying statements of operations do not include any expense of the Underlying Series.

2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses (continued)
Income, expenses (other than class specific expenses), and realized and unrealized gains and losses are prorated among the classes based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses are directly charged to that Class.
The Series use the identified cost method for determining realized gain or loss on investments for both financial statement and federal income tax reporting purposes.
Federal Taxes
Each Series’ policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. The Series are not subject to federal income tax or excise tax to the extent that each Series distributes to shareholders each year its taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, in accordance with requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax or excise tax has been made in the financial statements.
Management evaluates its tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Recognition of tax benefits of an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. At April 30, 2018, the Series have recorded no liability for net unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns.
The Series file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions, as required. No income tax returns are currently under investigation. The statute of limitations on Target Income Series, Target 2015 Series, Target 2020 Series, Target 2025 Series, Target 2030 Series, Target 2035 Series, Target 2040 Series, Target 2045 Series, Target 2050 Series and Target 2055 Series tax returns remains open for the years ended October 31, 2014 through October 31, 2017. The statute of limitations on Target 2060 Series remains open for the period ended October 31, 2015 and the years ended October 31, 2016 through 2017. The Series are 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.
Foreign Taxes
Based on the Series’ understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and currency purchase/ repatriation transactions for foreign jurisdictions in which they invest, the Series will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign tax.
Distributions of Income and Gains
Distributions to shareholders of net investment income are made semi-annually. Distributions of net realized gains are made annually. An additional distribution may be necessary to avoid taxation of a Series. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Indemnifications
The Fund’s organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. | Transactions with Affiliates and Other Agreements |
The Fund has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Advisor, for which the Advisor does not receive a fee for the services it performs for the Series. However, the Advisor is entitled to receive the management fee from each of the Underlying Series in which the Series invest.
Under the Agreement, personnel of the Advisor provide the Series with advice and assistance in the choice of investments and the execution of securities transactions, and otherwise maintain the Series’ organization. The Advisor also provides the Fund with necessary office space and fund administration and support services. The salaries of all officers of the Fund (except a percentage of the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer’s salary, which is paid by the Fund), and of all Directors who are “affiliated persons” of the Fund, or of the Advisor, and all personnel of the Fund, or of the Advisor, performing services relating to research, statistical and investment activities, are paid by the Advisor. Each “non-affiliated” Director receives an annual stipend, which is allocated among all the active series of the Fund. In addition, these Directors also receive a fee per Board meeting attended plus a fee for each committee meeting attended and are reimbursed for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with attending such meetings. The Fund also has an Audit Committee Chair, Governance & Nominating Committee Chair and Lead Independent Director who each receive an additional annual stipend for this role.
The Fund may enter into agreements with financial intermediaries pursuant to which the Fund may pay financial intermediaries for non-distribution related sub-transfer agency, administrative, sub-accounting, and other shareholder services in an amount not to exceed 0.15% of the average daily net assets of the Class K, Class R and Class I shares. Payments made pursuant to such agreements are generally based on the current assets and/or number of accounts of the Series attributable to the financial intermediary. Any payments made pursuant to such agreements may be in addition to, rather than in lieu of, any Distribution and Shareholder Services Fee payable under the Rule 12b-1 plan of the Fund.
The Advisor has contractually agreed, until at least February 29, 2028 to limit its fees and reimburse expenses to the extent necessary so that the total direct annual fund operating expenses of each Class, exclusive of Distribution and Service (12b-1) Fees, do not exceed 0.20% of the average daily net assets of the Class I, Class K, and Class R shares, and 0.05% of the average daily net assets of the Class R6 shares. The Advisor’s agreement to limit each class’ operating expenses is limited to direct operating expenses and, therefore, does not apply to the indirect expenses incurred by the Series through their investments in the Underlying Series. For the six months ended April 30, 2018, the Advisor reimbursed expenses of $47,061 for Target Income Series, $72,756 for Target 2015 Series, $63,619 for Target 2020 Series, $59,478 for Target 2025 Series, $67,502 for Target 2030 Series, $69,143 Target 2035 Series, $71,924 for Target 2040 Series, $75,153 for Target 2045 Series, $78,830 for Target 2050 Series, $77,542 for Target 2055 series and $76,577 for Target 2060 Series, which is included as a reduction of expenses on the Statements of Operations. The Advisor is not eligible to recoup any expenses that have been reimbursed in prior years.
Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc., a registered broker-dealer affiliate of the Advisor, acts as distributor for the Fund’s shares. Each Series compensates the distributor for distributing and servicing the Series’ Class K and Class R shares pursuant to a distribution plan adopted under Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, regardless of expenses actually incurred. Under the agreement, each Series pays distribution and service fees to the distributor at an annual rate of 0.25% of average daily net assets attributable to Class K shares and 0.50% of average daily net assets attributable to Class R shares. There are no distribution and service fees on Class I and Class R6 shares of each Series. The fees are accrued daily and paid monthly.
Pursuant to a master services agreement dated March 1, 2017, the Fund pays the Advisor an annual fee related to fund accounting and administration of 0.00225% of average daily net assets of the Target Series with an annual base fee of $40,000 per Target series. Additionally, certain transaction and out-of-pocket expenses, including charges for reporting relating to the Fund’s compliance program, are charged. The Advisor has agreements with BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“BNY”) under which BNY serves as sub-accountant services agent.
Expenses not directly attributable to a series are allocated based on each series’ relative net assets or number of accounts, depending on the expense.

1Commencement of operations.
The following table represents instances at April 30, 2018, where a shareholder account owned greater than 10% of a Series:
| | | | | | | | |
SERIES | | NUMBER OF ACCOUNTS OVER 10% | | | PERCENTAGE OF THE SERIES | |
Target Income Series | | | 1 | | | | 46.2 | % |
Target 2015 Series | | | 2 | | | | 30.5 | % |
Target 2020 Series | | | 1 | | | | 46.4 | % |
Target 2030 Series | | | 1 | | | | 46.3 | % |
Target 2040 Series | | | 1 | | | | 42.9 | % |
Target 2050 Series | | | 2 | | | | 43.6 | % |
Target 2060 Series | | | 1 | | | | 42.1 | % |
At April 30, 2018, the Advisor and its affiliates owned 0.2% of the Target 2015 Series, 2.7% of the Target 2060 Series, and 0.1% or less of each remaining Series. Investment activities of these shareholders may have a material effect on the Series.
The Underlying Series may trade in instruments including written and purchased options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts and other derivatives in the normal course of investing activities to assist in managing exposure to various market risks. The Underlying Series may be subject to various elements of risk which may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. These risks include: the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index; counterparty credit risk related to over the counter derivative counterparties’ failure to perform under contract terms; liquidity risk related to the lack of a liquid market for these contracts allowing the fund to close out its position(s); and documentation risk relating to disagreement over contract terms. No such investments were directly held by the Series as of April 30, 2018.
8. | Federal Income Tax Information |
The amount and characterization of certain income and capital gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Each Series may periodically make reclassifications among its capital

accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryovers) under income tax regulations, without impacting the Series’ net asset value. Any such reclassifications are not reflected in the financial highlights.
The final determination of the tax character of current year distributions will be made at the conclusion of the fiscal year. The tax character of distributions paid for the year ended October 31, 2017 were as follows:

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement
(unaudited)
At the Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) Board of Directors’ (the “Board”) meeting, held on November 16, 2017, the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Fund and Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) was considered by the Board for renewal. In connection with the decision whether to renew the Agreement, a variety of material was provided to the Board in advance of the meeting for their review and consideration.
Representatives of the Advisor attended the meeting and presented additional oral information to the Board to assist the Board in its considerations. The discussion below outlines the materials and information presented to the Board in connection with the Board’s 2017 Annual consideration of the Agreement and the conclusions made by the Directors when determining to continue the Agreement.
| • | | The Board considered the nature and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Agreement for over 30 years including, among others: deciding what securities to purchase and sell for each Series; arranging for the purchase and sale of such securities by placing orders with broker-dealers; administering the affairs of the Fund (including the books and records of the Fund not maintained by third party service providers such as the custodian or transfer agent); arranging for the insurance coverage for the Fund; and supervising the preparation of tax returns, SEC filings (including registration statements) and reports to shareholders for the Fund. The Board also considered the Advisor’s personnel who perform services to the Fund, the strength of its compliance infrastructure, policies and procedures relating to compliance with securities regulations, reputation, expertise and resources in domestic and foreign financial markets. The Board discussed the quality of these services with representatives from the Advisor and concluded that the Advisor was performing its services to the Fund required under the Agreement in a reasonable manner. |
| • | | The Board considered the Advisor’s investments teams, including changes to the teams during the past year, investment team compensation and investment process. The Board considered the performance of each Series since its inception, as well as over multiple time periods including: one year, three year, five year, ten year, and current market cycle. A market cycle includes periods of both rising and falling markets. Returns for established benchmark indices for each Series were provided. In addition, the Board considered (and considers on a quarterly basis) a number of other factors relevant to performance at the meeting including: a peer group performance analysis consisting of Morningstar universes of mutual funds with similar investment objectives; the breadth of the Fund’s product offerings; and performance over reasonable time periods. The Board discussed with Representatives of the Advisor, short-term performance challenges in the Fund’s non-U.S. portfolios which have resulted in a downward trend in assets under management. After discussion, the Board concluded that the nature and quality of the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Fund, and the Series’ actual and comparative performance, especially over the current market cycle supported the renewal of the agreement. |
| • | | The Board considered the costs of the Advisor’s services and the profits of the Advisor as they relate to the Advisor’s services to the Fund under the Agreement. In reviewing the Advisor’s costs and profits, the Board discussed the Advisor’s revenues generated from the Fund and its expenses associated with providing the services under the Agreement. The Advisor presented the Board with firmwide investment management profitability to provide a meaningful comparison of the Advisor’s profitability from its Fund activities relative to its profitability from its other investment management business. In addition, the Board reviewed the Advisor’s expense allocation methodology used to calculate profitability since many of the Advisor’s resources and expenses are shared across the Advisor’s various investment management vehicles. The Board considered the Advisor’s expenses associated with Fund activities outside of the Agreement (such as expense reimbursements pursuant to expense caps and payments made by the Advisor to third party platforms on which shares of the Fund are available for purchase). After discussing the above costs and profits, the Board concluded that the Advisor’s profitability relating to its services provided under the Agreement was reasonable. |
| • | | The Board then considered whether economies of scale were being achieved by the Advisor with respect to its services to the Fund. The Board acknowledged the expense caps incorporated in the Fund’s current fee structure, which requires the Advisor to subsidize the expenses of the Series operating above their cap, noting that 26 Series of the Fund are currently receiving expense reimbursements from the Advisor. The Board concluded that based on the current fee structure and profitability, the Fund would need to grow in assets before the Advisor would be able to achieve meaningful economies of scale. |

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement
(unaudited)
| • | | The Board considered the fees and expenses of the various Series of the Fund. The Advisor provided the Board with information comparing each Series’ contractual management fees with the Advisor’s standard advisory fees for separate accounts and collective investment trusts. The Board considered that the range of services provided to the Series is more extensive than for the Advisor’s other clients due to additional infrastructure, administrative and regulatory requirements related to operating a mutual fund. The Advisor also presented the advisory fees and total expenses for each Series, including the advisory fee adjusted for any contractual expense waivers or reimbursements paid by the Advisor. The advisory fees, 12b-1 Distribution and Service Fees, other expenses (e.g. a combination of Shareholder Services Fees, routine operating expenses and Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses for fund-of-fund Series) and net expense ratios of each Series were compared and ranked (on both a mean and median basis) against funds of a similar size and with similar investment objectives and expense characteristics as disclosed on the Morningstar database. In addition, the Board considered fee reductions that went into effect for the Fund’s Target Series in October 2017, as well as projected fee and expense changes for certain Series approved by the Board in a prior Board meeting. These fee and expense changes would go into effect pursuant to a successful shareholder vote in 2018. Representatives of the Advisor discussed with the Board the comparisons and rankings of fees and net expense ratios for each Series of the Fund and the methodology behind the comparison. The Board considered the Advisor’s active portfolio management that results in portfolios that are more differentiated than the construction of their benchmarks. Based on their review of the information provided, the Board concluded that the fees and expenses of each Series of the Fund were reasonable on a comparative basis. |
| • | | The Board also considered the other benefits the Advisor derives from its relationship with the Fund. Such other benefits include participation in a joint insurance program, sharing of compensation expenses for certain shared personnel, relationships with large service providers and certain research services provided by soft dollars. The Board reviewed the broker-dealers who provided research to the Advisor and the products and services paid for, in whole or in part, using soft dollar commissions. Given the level of soft dollar transactions involving the Fund, the Board concluded that these additional benefits to the Advisor were reasonable. |
Based on the Board’s deliberations and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including a majority of Directors that are not “interested persons” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, concluded that the compensation under the Agreement was fair and reasonable in light of the services and expenses and such other matters as the Directors considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. Accordingly, the Board approved the renewal of the Agreement. In the course of their deliberations, the Directors did not identify any particular information that was all important or controlling.

Shareholder Expense Example - Blended Asset Conservative Series
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 in each class at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 Actual line for the Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of each class in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Series’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Series’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Series 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
| | | | | | |
| | BEGINNING ACCOUNT VALUE 11/1/17 | | ENDING ACCOUNT VALUE 4/30/18 | | EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD* 11/1/17-4/30/18 |
Actual | | $1,000.00 | | $991.60 | | $2.22 |
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | | $1,000.00 | | $1,022.56 | | $2.26 |
*Expenses are equal to the Series’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period) of 0.45%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Series’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

Shareholder Expense Example - Blended Asset Moderate Series
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 in each class at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 Actual line for the Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of each class in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Series’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Series’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Series 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
| | | | | | |
| | BEGINNING ACCOUNT VALUE 11/1/17 | | ENDING ACCOUNT VALUE 4/30/18 | | EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD* 11/1/17-4/30/18 |
Actual | | $1,000.00 | | $994.60 | | $2.47 |
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | | $1,000.00 | | $1,022.32 | | $2.51 |
* Expenses are equal to the Series’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period) of 0.50%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Series’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

Shareholder Expense Example - Blended Asset Extended Series
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 in each class at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 Actual line for the Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of each class in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Series’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Series’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Series 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
| | | | | | |
| | BEGINNING ACCOUNT VALUE 11/1/17 | | ENDING ACCOUNT VALUE 4/30/18 | | EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD* 11/1/2017-4/30/18 |
Actual | | $1,000.00 | | $998.60 | | $2.73 |
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | | $1,000.00 | | $1,022.07 | | $2.76 |
*Expenses are equal to the Series’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period) of 0.55%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the period since inception). The Series’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

Shareholder Expense Example - Blended Asset Maximum Series
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 in each class at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 Actual line for the Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of each class in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Series’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Series’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Series 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
| | | | | | |
| | BEGINNING ACCOUNT VALUE 11/1/17 | | ENDING ACCOUNT VALUE 4/30/18 | | EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD* 11/1/17-4/30/18 |
Actual | | $1,000.00 | | $1,035.00 | | $2.78 |
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | | $1,000.00 | | $1,022.07 | | $2.76 |
*Expenses are equal to the Series’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period) of 0.55%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the period since inception). The Series’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Series. Each Series is an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 - Investment Companies, which is part of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Security Valuation
Portfolio securities, including domestic equities, foreign equities, warrants and options, listed on an exchange other than the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued at the latest quoted sales price of the exchange on which the security is primarily traded. Securities not traded on valuation date or securities not listed on an exchange are valued at the latest quoted bid price provided by the Fund’s pricing service. Securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued in accordance with the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.
Debt securities, including government bonds, foreign bonds, asset-backed securities, structured notes, supranational obligations, sovereign bonds, corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities will normally be valued on the basis of evaluated bid prices provided directly by an independent pricing service. The pricing services use multiple valuation techniques to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity exists, the pricing services may utilize a market-based approach through which quotes from market makers are used to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity may not exist or is limited, the pricing services also utilize proprietary valuation models which may consider market characteristics such as benchmark yield curves, option-adjusted spreads, credit spreads, estimated defaulted rates, coupon rates, anticipated timing of principal repayments, underlying collateral and other unique security features in order to estimate the relevant cash flows, which are then discounted to calculate the fair value. Certain investments in securities held by the Series may be valued on a basis of a price provided directly by a principal market maker. These prices may differ from the value that would have been used had a broader market for securities existed.
Short-term investments that mature in sixty days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value per share on valuation date.
Volume and level of activity in established markets for an asset or liability are evaluated to determine whether recent transactions and quoted prices are determinative of fair value. Where there have been significant decreases in volume and level of activity, further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value. The Series measure fair value in these instances by the use of inputs and valuation techniques which may be based upon current market prices of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity and industry and/or expectation of future cash flows. As a result of trading in relatively

Security Valuation (continued)
thin markets and/or markets that experience significant volatility, the prices used by the Series to value these securities may differ from the value that would be realized if these securities were sold, and the differences could be material.
Securities for which representative valuations or prices are not available from the Series’ pricing service may be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor under procedures approved by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such securities, the fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed. If trading or events occurring after the close of the principal market in which securities are traded are expected to materially affect the value of those securities, then they may be valued at their fair value, taking this trading or these events into account. In accordance with the procedures approved by the Board, the values of certain securities trading outside the U.S. were adjusted following the close of local trading using a factor from a third party vendor. The third party vendor uses statistical analyses and quantitative models, which consider among other things subsequent movement and changes in the prices of indices, securities and exchange rates in other markets, to determine the factors which are used to adjust local market prices. The value of securities used for net asset value calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities. It is the Fund’s policy to classify each foreign equity security where a factor from a third party vendor is provided as a Level 2 security.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Series’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in aggregate that is significant to their fair value measure. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the valuation levels used for major security types as of April 30, 2018 in valuing the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value:

Please see the Investment Portfolio for each of the Series for foreign securities where a factor from a third party vendor was applied to determine the securities’ fair value following the close of local trading. Such securities are included in Level 2 in the table above.
There were no Level 3 securities held by any of the Blended Asset Series as of April 30, 2018.

*Other financial instruments are exchange traded options (Level 1 and Level 2).
The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of the valuation levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no significant transfers between levels during the six months ended April 30, 2018.
New Accounting Guidance
In March 2017, the FASB issued amended guidance to shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance to the Series.

Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the Series is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discounts using the effective interest method, is earned from settlement date and accrued daily.
Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Most expenses of the Fund can be attributed to a specific series. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the series in the Fund in such a manner as deemed equitable by the Fund’s Board, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense.
Income, expenses (other than class specific expenses), and realized and unrealized gains and losses are prorated among the classes based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses are directly charged to that Class.
The Series use the identified cost method for determining realized gain or loss on investments for both financial statement and federal income tax reporting purposes.
Foreign Currency Translation
The books and records of the Series are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The Series do not isolate realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable to changes in the exchange rates from gains and losses that arise from changes in the fair value of investments. Such fluctuations are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses represent foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on securities transactions, gains and losses on disposition of foreign currencies and the difference between the amount of income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the books of the Series and the amounts actually received or paid.
Option Contracts
The Series may write (sell) or buy call or put options on securities and other financial instruments. When a Series writes a call, the Series gives the purchaser the right to buy the underlying security from the Series at the price specified in the option contract (the “exercise price”) at any time during the option period. When a Series writes a put option, the Series gives the purchaser the right to sell to the Series the underlying security at the exercise price at any time during the option period. The Series will only write options on a “covered basis.” This means that the Series will own the underlying security when the Series writes a call or the Series will put aside cash, U.S. Government securities, or other liquid assets in an amount not less than the exercise price at all times the put option is outstanding.
When a Series writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received is reflected as a liability and is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option. The Series, as a writer of an option, has no control over whether the underlying security or financial instrument may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security or financial instrument underlying the written option. There is a risk that the Series may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
Each Series may also purchase options in an attempt to hedge against fluctuations in the value of its portfolio and to protect against declines in the value of the securities. The premium paid by a Series for the purchase of an option is reflected as an investment and subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium paid.
When a security is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the security acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the security sold. When an

option expires (or a Series enters into a closing transaction), the Series realizes a gain or loss on the option to the extent of the premium received or paid (or gain or loss to the extent the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premium paid or received).
The measurement of the risks associated with option contracts is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered. The counterparty for the Series’ written options contracts outstanding during the six months ended April 30, 2018 is Pershing LLC, a BNY Mellon Company.

Asset-Backed Securities
Each Series may invest in asset-backed securities. Asset-backed securities are generally issued as pass-through certificates or as debt instruments. Asset-backed securities issued as pass-through certificates represent undivided fractional ownership interests in an underlying pool of assets. Asset-backed securities issued as debt instruments, which are also known as collateralized obligations, are typically issued as the debt of a special purpose entity organized solely for the purpose of owning such assets and issuing such debt. Asset-backed securities are often backed by a pool of assets representing the obligations of a number of different parties. The yield characteristics of certain asset-backed securities may differ from traditional debt securities. One such major difference is that all or a principal part of the obligations may be prepaid at any time because the underlying assets (i.e. loans) may be prepaid at any time. As a result, a decrease in interest rates in the market may result in increases in the level of prepayments as borrowers, particularly mortgagors, refinance and repay their loans. An increased prepayment rate with respect to an asset-backed security will have the effect of shortening the maturity of the security. In addition, a fund may subsequently have to reinvest the proceeds at lower interest rates. If a fund has purchased such an asset-backed security at a premium, a faster than anticipated prepayment rate could result in a loss of principal to the extent of the premium paid.
Mortgage-Backed Securities
Each Series may invest in mortgage-backed securities (“MBS” or pass-through certificates) that represent an interest in a pool of specific underlying mortgage loans and entitle the fund to the periodic payments of principal and interest from those mortgages. MBS may be issued by government agencies or corporations, or private issuers. Most MBS issued by government agencies are guaranteed; however, the degree of protection differs based on the issuer. For MBS there are a number of important differences among the agencies and instrumentalities of the U.S. Government that issue mortgage-related securities and among the securities that they issue. For example, mortgage-related securities guaranteed by Ginnie Mae are guaranteed as to the timely payment of principal and interest by Ginnie Mae and such guarantee is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. However, mortgage-related securities issued by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, including Freddie Mac and Fannie

Mortgage-Backed Securities (continued)
Mae guaranteed mortgage pass-through certificates, which are solely the obligations of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, are not backed by or entitled to the full faith and credit of the United States, but are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury. Non-agency mortgage-backed securities are securities issued by non-governmental issuers and have no direct or indirect government guarantees of payment and are subject to various risks. Non-agency mortgage loans are obligations of the borrowers thereunder only and are not typically insured or guaranteed by any other person or entity. The ability of a borrower to repay a loan is dependent upon the income or assets of the borrower. A number of factors, including a general economic downturn, acts of God, terrorism, social unrest and civil disturbances, may impair a borrower’s ability to repay its loans.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds
Each Series may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. If the index measuring inflation rises or falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds will be adjusted upward or downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a larger or smaller principal amount) will be increased or reduced, respectively. Any upward or downward adjustment in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statements of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity. Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed in the case of U.S. Treasury inflation-indexed bonds. For bonds that do not provide a similar guarantee, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal.
Securities Purchased on a When-Issued Basis or Forward Commitment
Each Series may purchase securities on a when-issued basis or forward commitment. These transactions involve a commitment by the Series to purchase securities for a predetermined price with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When such purchases are outstanding, the Series will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed delivery basis, the Fund assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining their net asset value. The Series may sell the when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. No such investments were held by the Series on April 30, 2018.
In connection with their ability to purchase or sell securities on a forward commitment basis, the Series may enter into forward roll transactions principally using To Be Announced (TBA) securities. Forward roll transactions require the sale of securities for delivery in the current month, and a simultaneous agreement to repurchase substantially similar (same type, coupon and maturity) securities on a specified future date. Risks of entering into forward roll transactions include the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement; the potential of the Series to receive inferior securities at redelivery as compared to the securities sold to the counterparty; counterparty credit risk; and the potential pay down speed variance between the mortgage-backed pools. During the roll period, the Series forgoes principal and interest paid on the securities. The Series accounts for such dollar rolls as purchases and sales. No such investments were held by the Series on April 30, 2018.
Interest Only Securities
The Series may invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities issued by the U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities. Stripped mortgage-backed securities are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. In certain cases, one class will receive all of the interest (the interest-only or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only or “PO” class). The yield to maturity on IOs is sensitive to the rate of principal repayments (including prepayments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and principal payments may have a material effect on yield to maturity. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, a Series may not fully recoup its initial investment in IOs.

2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
Restricted Securities
Restricted securities are purchased in private placement transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may have contractual restrictions on resale. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of each applicable Series’ Investment Portfolio.
Federal Taxes
Each Series’ policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. The Series are not subject to federal income tax or excise tax to the extent that each Series distributes to shareholders each year its taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, in accordance with requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax or excise tax has been made in the financial statements.
Management evaluates its tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Recognition of tax benefits of an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. At April 30, 2018, the Series have recorded no liability for net unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns.
The Series file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions, as required. No income tax returns are currently under investigation. The statute of limitations on the Series’ tax returns remains open for the period ended October 31, 2017. The Fund is 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.
Foreign Taxes
Based on the Series’ understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and currency purchase/repatriation transactions for foreign jurisdictions in which they invest, the Series will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign tax.
Distributions of Income and Gains
Distributions to shareholders of net investment income are made semi-annually. Distributions of net realized gains are made annually. An additional distribution may be necessary to avoid taxation of a Series. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Indemnifications
The Fund’s organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. | Transactions with Affiliates |
The Fund has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Advisor, for which each Series pays a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.40% for Blended Asset Conservative Term Series, 0.45% for Blended Asset Moderate Series, and 0.50% for Blended Asset Extended Series and Blended Asset Maximum Series, of the Series’ average daily net assets.

3. | Transactions with Affiliates (continued) |
Under the Agreement, personnel of the Advisor provide the Series with advice and assistance in the choice of investments and the execution of securities transactions, and otherwise maintain the Series’ organization. The Advisor also provides the Fund with necessary office space and fund administration and support services. The salaries of all officers of the Fund (except a percentage of the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer’s salary, which is paid by the Fund), and of all Directors who are “affiliated persons” of the Fund, or of the Advisor, and all personnel of the Fund, or of the Advisor, performing services relating to research, statistical and investment activities, are paid by the Advisor. Each “non-affiliated” Director receives an annual stipend, which is allocated among all the active series of the Fund. In addition, these Directors also receive a fee per Board meeting attended plus a fee for each committee meeting attended and are reimbursed for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with attending such meetings. The Fund also has an Audit Committee Chair, Governance & Nominating Committee Chair and Lead Independent Director who each receive an additional annual stipend for this role.
The Advisor has contractually agreed, until at least February 29, 2028, to waive its management fee and, if necessary, pay other operating expenses of the Series in order to maintain total direct annual fund operating expenses for the Series, at no more than the amounts presented in the following table, of average daily net assets each year.
| | | | |
SERIES/CLASS | | EXPENSE LIMIT | |
Blended Asset Conservative Series | | | 0.45 | % |
Blended Asset Moderate Series | | | 0.50 | % |
Blended Asset Extended Series | | | 0.55 | % |
Blended Asset Maximum Series | | | 0.55 | % |
For the six months ended April 30, 2018, the Advisor waived the following amounts which are included as a reduction of expenses on the Statements of Operations:
| | | | |
SERIES/CLASS | | WAIVER AMOUNT | |
Blended Asset Conservative Series Class R6 | | $ | 63,080 | |
Blended Asset Moderate Series Class R6 | | | 73,644 | |
Blended Asset Extended Series Class R6 | | | 85,152 | |
Blended Asset Maximum Series Class R6 | | | 81,509 | |
The Advisor is not eligible to recoup any expenses that have been waived or reimbursed.
Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc., a registered broker-dealer affiliate of the Advisor, acts as distributor for the Fund’s shares. The services of Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc. are provided at no additional cost to the Series.
Pursuant to a master services agreement dated March 1, 2017, the Fund pays the Advisor an annual fee related to fund accounting and administration of 0.0085% on the first $25 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); 0.0075% on the next $15 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); and 0.0065% of average daily net assets in excess of $40 billion (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); plus a base fee of $30,400 per series. Additionally, certain transaction and out-of-pocket expenses, including charges for reporting relating to the Fund’s compliance program, are charged. The Advisor has agreements with BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“BNY”) under which BNY serves as sub-accountant services agent.
Expenses not directly attributable to a series are allocated based on each series’ relative net assets or number of accounts, depending on the expense.

1Commencement of operations.
At April 30, 2018, The Target Income Series, another series of the Fund, owned 98.4% of Blended Asset Conservative Term Series. The Target 2020 Series and Target 2025 Series, other series of the Fund, owned 75.9% and 22.9%, respectively, of Blended Asset Moderate Term Series. The Target 2025 Series, Target 2030 Series, Target 2035 Series, and Target 2040 Series, other series of the Fund, owned 13.7%, 54.9%, 10.5%, and 14.5%, respectively, of Blended Asset Extended Term Series. The Target 2040 Series, Target 2045 Series, and Target 2050 Series, other series of the Fund, owned 33.2%, 12.3%, and 23.3%, respectively, of Blended Asset Maximum Term Series. Investment activities of these shareholders may have a material effect on the respective Series.

6. | Financial Instruments and Loan Assignments |
The Series may trade in instruments including written and purchased options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts and other derivatives in the normal course of investing activities to assist in managing exposure to various market risks. The Series may be subject to various elements of risk which may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. These risks include: the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index; counterparty credit risk related to over the counter derivative counterparties’ failure to perform under contract terms; liquidity risk related to the lack of a liquid market for these contracts allowing the fund to close out its position(s); and documentation risk relating to disagreement over contract terms. At April 30, 2018, Blended Asset Conservative Series, Blended Asset Moderate Series and Blended Asset Extended Series invested in options contracts (equity risk).
The Series may invest in a loan assignment of all or a portion of the loans. The Series has direct rights against the borrower on a loan when it purchases an assignment; however, the Series’ rights may be more limited than the lender from which it acquired the assignment and the Series may be able to enforce its rights only through an administrative agent. Loan assignments are vulnerable to market conditions and may become illiquid due to economic conditions or other events may reduce the demand for loan assignments and certain loan assignments which were liquid when purchased may become illiquid. At April 30, 2018, the Series did not hold any loan assignments.
Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in securities of domestic companies and the U.S. Government. These risks include revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of foreign companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of comparable domestic companies and the U.S. Government.
8. | Federal Income Tax Information |
The amount and characterization of certain income and capital gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Each Series may periodically make reclassifications among its capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryovers) under income tax regulations, without impacting the Series’ net asset value. Any such reclassifications are not reflected in the financial highlights.
At April 30, 2018, the identified cost of investments for federal income tax purposes, the resulting gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation, and the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | BLENDED ASSET CONSERVATIVE SERIES | | | BLENDED ASSET MODERATE SERIES | | | BLENDED ASSET EXTENDED SERIES | | | BLENDED ASSET MAXIMUM SERIES | |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | | $ | 120,105,560 | | | $ | 112,264,157 | | | $ | 187,987,633 | | | $ | 121,000,601 | |
Unrealized appreciation | | | 1,472,250 | | | | 2,078,728 | | | | 4,410,345 | | | | 6,196,740 | |
Unrealized depreciation | | | (3,349,794 | ) | | | (4,028,714 | ) | | | (7,593,081 | ) | | | (4,988,987 | ) |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
At October 31, 2017, Blended Asset Conservative Series, Blended Asset Moderate Series and Blended Asset Extended Series had net short-term capital loss carryforwards of $10,200, $10,845 and $9,007, respectively, which may be carried forward indefinitely.

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement
(unaudited)
At the Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) Board of Directors’ (the “Board”) meeting, held on November 16, 2017, the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Fund and Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) was considered by the Board for renewal. In connection with the decision whether to renew the Agreement, a variety of material was provided to the Board in advance of the meeting for their review and consideration.
Representatives of the Advisor attended the meeting and presented additional oral information to the Board to assist the Board in its considerations. The discussion below outlines the materials and information presented to the Board in connection with the Board’s 2017 Annual consideration of the Agreement and the conclusions made by the Directors when determining to continue the Agreement.
| • | | The Board considered the nature and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Agreement for over 30 years including, among others: deciding what securities to purchase and sell for each Series; arranging for the purchase and sale of such securities by placing orders with broker-dealers; administering the affairs of the Fund (including the books and records of the Fund not maintained by third party service providers such as the custodian or transfer agent); arranging for the insurance coverage for the Fund; and supervising the preparation of tax returns, SEC filings (including registration statements) and reports to shareholders for the Fund. The Board also considered the Advisor’s personnel who perform services to the Fund, the strength of its compliance infrastructure, policies and procedures relating to compliance with securities regulations, reputation, expertise and resources in domestic and foreign financial markets. The Board discussed the quality of these services with representatives from the Advisor and concluded that the Advisor was performing its services to the Fund required under the Agreement in a reasonable manner. |
| • | | The Board considered the Advisor’s investments teams, including changes to the teams during the past year, investment team compensation and investment process. The Board considered the performance of each Series since its inception, as well as over multiple time periods including: one year, three year, five year, ten year, and current market cycle. A market cycle includes periods of both rising and falling markets. Returns for established benchmark indices for each Series were provided. In addition, the Board considered (and considers on a quarterly basis) a number of other factors relevant to performance at the meeting including: a peer group performance analysis consisting of Morningstar universes of mutual funds with similar investment objectives; the breadth of the Fund’s product offerings; and performance over reasonable time periods. The Board discussed with Representatives of the Advisor, short-term performance challenges in the Fund’s non-U.S. portfolios which have resulted in a downward trend in assets under management. After discussion, the Board concluded that the nature and quality of the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Fund, and the Series’ actual and comparative performance, especially over the current market cycle supported the renewal of the agreement. |
| • | | The Board considered the costs of the Advisor’s services and the profits of the Advisor as they relate to the Advisor’s services to the Fund under the Agreement. In reviewing the Advisor’s costs and profits, the Board discussed the Advisor’s revenues generated from the Fund and its expenses associated with providing the services under the Agreement. The Advisor presented the Board with information on firmwide investment management profitability to provide a comparison of the Advisor’s profitability from its Fund activities relative to its profitability from its other investment management business. In addition, the Board reviewed the Advisor’s expense allocation methodology used to calculate profitability since many of the Advisor’s resources and expenses are shared across the Advisor’s various investment management vehicles. The Board considered the Advisor’s expenses associated with Fund activities outside of the Agreement (such as expense reimbursements pursuant to expense caps and payments made by the Advisor to third party platforms on which shares of the Fund are available for purchase). After discussing the above costs and profits, the Board concluded that the Advisor’s profitability relating to its services provided under the Agreement was reasonable. |
| • | | The Board then considered whether economies of scale were being achieved by the Advisor with respect to its services to the Fund. The Board acknowledged the expense caps incorporated in the Fund’s current fee structure, which requires the Advisor to subsidize the expenses of the Series operating above their cap, noting that 26 Series of the Fund are currently receiving expense reimbursements from the Advisor. The Board concluded that based on the current fee structure and profitability, the Fund would need to grow in assets before the Advisor would be able to achieve meaningful economies of scale. |

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement
(unaudited)
| • | | The Board considered the fees and expenses of the various Series of the Fund. The Advisor provided the Board with information comparing each Series’ contractual management fees with the Advisor’s standard advisory fees for separate accounts and collective investment trusts. The Board considered that the range of services provided to the Series is more extensive than for the Advisor’s other clients due to additional infrastructure, administrative and regulatory requirements related to operating a mutual fund. The Advisor also presented the advisory fees and total expenses for each Series, including the advisory fee adjusted for any contractual expense waivers or reimbursements paid by the Advisor. The advisory fees, 12b-1 Distribution and Service Fees, other expenses (e.g. a combination of Shareholder Services Fees, routine operating expenses and Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses for fund-of-fund Series) and net expense ratios of each Series were compared and ranked (on both a mean and median basis) against funds of a similar size and with similar investment objectives and expense characteristics as disclosed on the Morningstar database. In addition, the Board considered fee reductions that went into effect for the Fund’s Target Series in October 2017, as well as projected fee and expense changes for certain Series approved by the Board in a prior Board meeting. These fee and expense changes would go into effect pursuant to a successful shareholder vote in 2018. Representatives of the Advisor discussed with the Board the comparisons and rankings of fees and net expense ratios for each Series of the Fund and the methodology behind the comparison. The Board considered the Advisor’s active portfolio management that results in portfolios that are more differentiated than the construction of their benchmarks. Based on their review of the information provided, the Board concluded that the fees and expenses of each Series of the Fund were reasonable on a comparative basis. |
| • | | The Board also considered the other benefits the Advisor derives from its relationship with the Fund. Such other benefits include participation in a joint insurance program, sharing of compensation expenses for certain shared personnel, relationships with large service providers and certain research services provided by soft dollars. The Board reviewed the broker-dealers who provided research to the Advisor and the products and services paid for, in whole or in part, using soft dollar commissions. Given the level of soft dollar transactions involving the Fund, the Board concluded that these additional benefits to the Advisor were reasonable. |
Based on the Board’s deliberations and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including a majority of Directors that are not “interested persons” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, concluded that the compensation under the Agreement was fair and reasonable in light of the services and expenses and such other matters as the Directors considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. Accordingly, the Board approved the renewal of the Agreement. In the course of their deliberations, the Directors did not identify any particular information that was all important or controlling.

Disciplined Value Series
Shareholder Expense Example
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 in each class at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the table below provide 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 Actual line for the Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of each Class in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a class of the Series and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the Class in which you have invested 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

(5% return before expenses) | | $1,000.00 | | $1,021.82 | | $3.01 | | 0.60% |
*Expenses are equal to each Class’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 to reflect the one-half year period. The Class’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

Disciplined Value Series
Notes to Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Disciplined Value Series (the “Series”) is a no-load diversified series of Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”). The Fund is organized in Maryland and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.
The Series’ investment objective is to provide competitive returns consistent with the broad equity market while providing a level of capital protection during market downturns.
The Fund’s Advisor is Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”). Shares of the Series are offered to investors, clients and employees of the Advisor and its affiliates. The total authorized capital stock of the Fund consists of 15 billion shares of common stock each having a par value of $0.01. As of April 30, 2018, 10.9 billion shares have been designated in total among 38 series, of which 100 million have been designated as Disciplined Value Series Class I common stock and 100 million have been designated as Disciplined Value Series Class S common stock.
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Series. The Series is an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 - Investment Companies, which is part of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Security Valuation
Portfolio securities, including domestic equities, foreign equities, warrants and options, listed on an exchange other than the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued at the latest quoted sales price of the exchange on which the security is primarily traded. Securities not traded on valuation date or securities not listed on an exchange are valued at the latest quoted bid price provided by the Fund’s pricing service. Securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued in accordance with the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.
Short-term investments that mature in sixty days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value per share on valuation date.
Volume and level of activity in established markets for an asset or liability are evaluated to determine whether recent transactions and quoted prices are determinative of fair value. Where there have been significant decreases in volume and level of activity, further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value. The Series measures fair value in these instances by the use of inputs and valuation techniques which may be based upon current market prices of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity and industry and/or expectation of future cash flows. As a result of trading in relatively thin markets and/or markets that experience significant volatility, the prices used by the Series to value these securities may differ from the value that would be realized if these securities were sold, and the differences could be material.
Securities for which representative valuations or prices are not available from the Series’ pricing service may be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor under procedures approved by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such securities, the fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed. If trading or events occurring after the close of the principal market in which securities are traded are expected to materially affect the value of those securities, then they may be valued at their fair value, taking this trading or these events into account.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Series’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both

individually and in aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the valuation levels used for major security types as of April 30, 2018 in valuing the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
There were no Level 2 or Level 3 securities held by the Series as of October 31, 2017 or April 30, 2018.
The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of the valuation levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the six months ended April 30, 2018.
New Accounting Guidance
In March 2017, the FASB issued amended guidance to shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance to the Series.
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the Series is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discounts using the effective interest method, is earned from settlement date and accrued daily.
Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Most expenses of the Fund can be attributed to a specific series. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the series in the Fund in such a manner as deemed equitable by the Fund’s Board, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense. Income, expenses (other than class specific expenses), and realized and unrealized gains and losses are prorated among the classes based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses are directly charged to that class.
The Series uses the identified cost method for determining realized gain or loss on investments for both financial statement and federal income tax reporting purposes.
Federal Taxes
The Series’ policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. The Series is not subject to federal income or excise tax to the extent that the Series distributes to shareholders each year its taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, in accordance with requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax or excise tax has been made in the financial statements.

2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
Federal Taxes (continued)
Management evaluates its tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Recognition of tax benefits of an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. At April 30, 2018, the Series has recorded no liability for net unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns.
The Series files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions, as required. No income tax returns are currently under investigation. The statute of limitations on the Series’ tax returns remains open for the years ended October 31, 2014 through October 31, 2017. The Series is 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.
Foreign Taxes
Based on the Series’ understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and currency purchase/repatriation transactions for foreign jurisdictions in which it invests, the Series will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign tax.
Distributions of Income and Gains
Distributions to shareholders of net investment income are made quarterly. Distributions of net realized gains are made annually. An additional distribution may be necessary to avoid taxation of the Series. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Indemnifications
The Fund’s organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. | Transactions with Affiliates |
The Fund has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Advisor, for which the Series pays a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.45% of the Series’ average daily net assets.
Under the Agreement, personnel of the Advisor provide the Series with advice and assistance in the choice of investments and the execution of securities transactions, and otherwise maintain the Series’ organization. The Advisor also provides the Fund with necessary office space and fund administration and support services. The salaries of all officers of the Fund (except a percentage of the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer’s salary, which is paid by the Fund), and of all Directors who are “affiliated persons” of the Fund, or of the Advisor, and all personnel of the Fund, or of the Advisor, performing services relating to research, statistical and investment activities, are paid by the Advisor. Each “non-affiliated” Director receives an annual stipend, which is allocated among all the active series of the Fund. In addition, these Directors also receive a fee per Board meeting attended plus a fee for each committee meeting attended and are reimbursed for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with attending such meetings. The Fund also has an Audit Committee Chair, Governance & Nominating Committee Chair and Lead Independent Director who each receive an additional annual stipend for this role.

3. | Transactions with Affiliates (continued) |
The Class S shares of the Series are subject to a shareholder services fee in accordance with a shareholder services plan adopted by the Fund’s Board. The shareholder services fee is intended to compensate financial intermediaries, including affiliates of the Fund, in connection with the provision of direct client service, personal services, maintenance of shareholder accounts and reporting services. For these services, the Class S shares of the Series pay a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class S. The Fund has a Shareholder Services Agreement with the Advisor, for which the Advisor receives the shareholder services fee as stated above.
The Advisor has contractually agreed, until at least February 28, 2019, to waive its management fee and, if necessary, pay other operating expenses of the Series in order to maintain total direct annual fund operating expenses for the Series, exclusive of shareholder service fees, at no more than 0.60% of average daily net assets each year. Accordingly, the Advisor waived fees of $6,005 for the six months ended April 30, 2018, which is included as a reduction of expenses on the Statement of Operations. The Advisor is not eligible to recoup any expenses that have been waived or reimbursed in prior years.
Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc., a registered broker-dealer affiliate of the Advisor, acts as distributor for the Fund’s shares. The services of Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc. are provided at no additional cost to the Series.
Pursuant to a master services agreement dated March 1, 2017, the Fund pays the Advisor an annual fee related to fund accounting and administration of 0.0085% on the first $25 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); 0.0075% on the next $15 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); and 0.0065% of average daily net assets in excess of $40 billion (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); plus a base fee of $30,400 per series. Additionally, certain transaction and out-of-pocket expenses, including charges for reporting relating to the Fund’s compliance program, are charged. The Advisor has agreements with BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“BNY”) under which BNY serves as sub-accountant services agent.
Expenses not directly attributable to a series are allocated based on each series’ relative net assets or number of accounts, depending on the expense.
4. | Purchases and Sales of Securities |
For the six months ended April 30, 2018, purchases and sales of securities, other than U.S. Government securities and short-term securities, were $59,225,035 and $115,457,569, respectively. There were no purchases or sales of U.S. Government securities.

The Series may trade in instruments including written and purchased options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts and other derivatives in the normal course of investing activities to assist in managing exposure to various market risks. The Series may be subject to various elements of risk which may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. These risks include: the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index; counterparty credit risk related to over the counter derivative counterparties’ failure to perform under contract terms; liquidity risk related to the lack of a liquid market for these contracts allowing the fund to close out its position(s); and documentation risk relating to disagreement over contract terms. No such investments were held by the Series as of April 30, 2018.

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement
(unaudited)
At the Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) Board of Directors’ (the “Board”) meeting, held on November 16, 2017, the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Fund and Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) was considered by the Board for renewal. In connection with the decision whether to renew the Agreement, a variety of material was provided to the Board in advance of the meeting for their review and consideration.
Representatives of the Advisor attended the meeting and presented additional oral information to the Board to assist the Board in its considerations. The discussion below outlines the materials and information presented to the Board in connection with the Board’s 2017 Annual consideration of the Agreement and the conclusions made by the Directors when determining to continue the Agreement.
| • | | The Board considered the nature and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Agreement for over 30 years including, among others: deciding what securities to purchase and sell for each Series; arranging for the purchase and sale of such securities by placing orders with broker-dealers; administering the affairs of the Fund (including the books and records of the Fund not maintained by third party service providers such as the custodian or transfer agent); arranging for the insurance coverage for the Fund; and supervising the preparation of tax returns, SEC filings (including registration statements) and reports to shareholders for the Fund. The Board also considered the Advisor’s personnel who perform services to the Fund, the strength of its compliance infrastructure, policies and procedures relating to compliance with securities regulations, reputation, expertise and resources in domestic and foreign financial markets. The Board discussed the quality of these services with representatives from the Advisor and concluded that the Advisor was performing its services to the Fund required under the Agreement in a reasonable manner. |
| • | | The Board considered the Advisor’s investments teams, including changes to the teams during the past year, investment team compensation and investment process. The Board considered the performance of each Series since its inception, as well as over multiple time periods including: one year, three year, five year, ten year, and current market cycle. A market cycle includes periods of both rising and falling markets. Returns for established benchmark indices for each Series were provided. In addition, the Board considered (and considers on a quarterly basis) a number of other factors relevant to performance at the meeting including: a peer group performance analysis consisting of Morningstar universes of mutual funds with similar investment objectives; the breadth of the Fund’s product offerings; and performance over reasonable time periods. The Board discussed with Representatives of the Advisor, short-term performance challenges in the Fund’s non-U.S. portfolios which have resulted in a downward trend in assets under management. After discussion, the Board concluded that the nature and quality of the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Fund, and the Series’ actual and comparative performance, especially over the current market cycle supported the renewal of the agreement. |
| • | | The Board considered the costs of the Advisor’s services and the profits of the Advisor as they relate to the Advisor’s services to the Fund under the Agreement. In reviewing the Advisor’s costs and profits, the Board discussed the Advisor’s revenues generated from the Fund and its expenses associated with providing the services under the Agreement. The Advisor presented the Board with information on firmwide investment management profitability to provide a comparison of the Advisor’s profitability from its Fund activities relative to its profitability from its other investment management business. In addition, the Board reviewed the Advisor’s expense allocation methodology used to calculate profitability since many of the Advisor’s resources and expenses are shared across the Advisor’s various investment management vehicles. The Board considered the Advisor’s expenses associated with Fund activities outside of the Agreement (such as expense reimbursements pursuant to expense caps and payments made by the Advisor to third party platforms on which shares of the Fund are available for purchase). After discussing the above costs and profits, the Board concluded that the Advisor’s profitability relating to its services provided under the Agreement was reasonable. |
| • | | The Board then considered whether economies of scale were being achieved by the Advisor with respect to its services to the Fund. The Board acknowledged the expense caps incorporated in the Fund’s current fee structure, which requires the Advisor to subsidize the expenses of the Series operating above their cap, noting that 26 Series of the Fund are currently receiving expense reimbursements from the Advisor. The Board concluded that based on the current fee structure and profitability, the Fund would need to grow in assets before the Advisor would be able to achieve meaningful economies of scale. |

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement
(unaudited)
| • | | The Board considered the fees and expenses of the various Series of the Fund. The Advisor provided the Board with information comparing each Series’ contractual management fees with the Advisor’s standard advisory fees for separate accounts and collective investment trusts. The Board considered that the range of services provided to the Series is more extensive than for the Advisor’s other clients due to additional infrastructure, administrative and regulatory requirements related to operating a mutual fund. The Advisor also presented the advisory fees and total expenses for each Series, including the advisory fee adjusted for any contractual expense waivers or reimbursements paid by the Advisor. The advisory fees, 12b-1 Distribution and Service Fees, other expenses (e.g. a combination of Shareholder Services Fees, routine operating expenses and Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses for fund-of-fund Series) and net expense ratios of each Series were compared and ranked (on both a mean and median basis) against funds of a similar size and with similar investment objectives and expense characteristics as disclosed on the Morningstar database. In addition, the Board considered fee reductions that went into effect for the Fund’s Target Series in October 2017, as well as projected fee and expense changes for certain Series approved by the Board in a prior Board meeting. These fee and expense changes would go into effect pursuant to a successful shareholder vote in 2018. Representatives of the Advisor discussed with the Board the comparisons and rankings of fees and net expense ratios for each Series of the Fund and the methodology behind the comparison. The Board considered the Advisor’s active portfolio management that results in portfolios that are more differentiated than the construction of their benchmarks. Based on their review of the information provided, the Board concluded that the fees and expenses of each Series of the Fund were reasonable on a comparative basis. |
| • | | The Board also considered the other benefits the Advisor derives from its relationship with the Fund. Such other benefits include participation in a joint insurance program, sharing of compensation expenses for certain shared personnel, relationships with large service providers and certain research services provided by soft dollars. The Board reviewed the broker-dealers who provided research to the Advisor and the products and services paid for, in whole or in part, using soft dollar commissions. Given the level of soft dollar transactions involving the Fund, the Board concluded that these additional benefits to the Advisor were reasonable. |
Based on the Board’s deliberations and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including a majority of Directors that are not “interested persons” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, concluded that the compensation under the Agreement was fair and reasonable in light of the services and expenses and such other matters as the Directors considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. Accordingly, the Board approved the renewal of the Agreement. In the course of their deliberations, the Directors did not identify any particular information that was all important or controlling.

Overseas Series
Shareholder Expense Example
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 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 Series’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Series’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Series 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
| | | | | | |
| | BEGINNING ACCOUNT VALUE 11/1/17 | | ENDING ACCOUNT VALUE 4/30/18 | | EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD* 11/1/17-4/30/18 |
Actual | | $1,000.00 | | $1,023.90 | | $3.76 |
Hypothetical | | | | | | |
(5% return before expenses) | | $1,000.00 | | $1,021.08 | | $3.76 |
*Expenses are equal to the Series’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period) of 0.75%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Series’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

Overseas Series
Notes to Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Overseas Series (the “Series”) is a no-load diversified series of Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”). The Fund is organized in Maryland and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.
The Series’ investment objective is to provide long-term growth.
The Series is authorized to issue three classes of shares (Class I, S and Z). As of April 30, 2018, only Class I shares have been issued. Each class of shares is substantially the same, except that class-specific distribution and shareholder servicing expenses are borne by the specific class of shares to which they relate.
The Fund’s Advisor is Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”). Shares of the Series are offered to investors, clients and employees of the Advisor and its affiliates. The total authorized capital stock of the Fund consists of 15 billion shares of common stock each having a par value of $0.01. As of April 30, 2018, 10.9 billion shares have been designated in total among 38 series, of which 200 million have been designated as Overseas Series Class I common stock, 400 million have been designated as Overseas Series Class S common stock and 100 million have been designated as Overseas Series Class Z common stock. Class Z shares of the Series commenced operations on May 1, 2018.
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Series. The Series is an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 - Investment Companies, which is part of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Security Valuation
Portfolio securities, including domestic equities, foreign equities, warrants and options, listed on an exchange other than the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued at the latest quoted sales price of the exchange on which the security is primarily traded. Securities not traded on valuation date or securities not listed on an exchange are valued at the latest quoted bid price provided by the Fund’s pricing service. Securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued in accordance with the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.
Short-term investments that mature in sixty days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value per share on valuation date.
Volume and level of activity in established markets for an asset or liability are evaluated to determine whether recent transactions and quoted prices are determinative of fair value. Where there have been significant decreases in volume and level of activity, further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value. The Series measures fair value in these instances by the use of inputs and valuation techniques which may be based upon current market prices of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity and industry and/or expectation of future cash flows. As a result of trading in relatively thin markets and/or markets that experience significant volatility, the prices used by the Series to value these securities may differ from the value that would be realized if these securities were sold, and the differences could be material.
Securities for which representative valuations or prices are not available from the Series’ pricing service may be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor under procedures approved by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such securities, the fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed. If trading or events occurring after the close of the principal market in which securities are traded are expected to materially affect the value of those securities, then they may be valued at their fair value, taking this trading or these events into account. In accordance with the procedures approved by the Board, the values of certain securities trading outside the U.S. were adjusted following the close of local trading using a factor from a third party vendor. The third party vendor uses statistical analyses and quantitative models, which consider among other things subsequent movement and changes in the prices of indices, securities

Security Valuation (continued)
and exchange rates in other markets, to determine the factors which are used to adjust local market prices. The value of securities used for net asset value calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities. It is the Fund’s policy to classify each foreign equity security where a factor from a third party vendor is provided as a Level 2 security.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Series’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the valuation levels used for major security types as of April 30, 2018 in valuing the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value:

Please see the Investment Portfolio for foreign securities where a factor from a third party vendor was applied to determine the security’s fair value following the close of local trading. Such securities are included in Level 2 in the table above.
There were no Level 3 securities held by the Series as of October 31, 2017 or April 30, 2018.
The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of the valuation levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between levels during the six months ended April 30, 2018.
New Accounting Guidance
In March 2017, the FASB issued amended guidance to shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance to the Series.
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the Series is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discounts using the effective interest method, is earned from settlement date and accrued daily.

Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses (continued)
Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Most expenses of the Fund can be attributed to a specific series. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the series in the Fund in such a manner as deemed equitable by the Fund’s Board, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense.
The Series uses the identified cost method for determining realized gain or loss on investments for both financial statement and federal income tax reporting purposes.
Foreign Currency Translation
The books and records of the Series are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The Series does not isolate realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable to changes in the exchange rates from gains and losses that arise from changes in the fair value of investments. Such fluctuations are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses represent foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on securities transactions, gains and losses on disposition of foreign currencies and the difference between the amount of income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the books of the Series and the amounts actually received or paid.
Federal Taxes
The Series’ policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. The Series is not subject to federal income tax or excise tax to the extent that the Series distributes to shareholders each year its taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, in accordance with requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax or excise tax has been made in the financial statements.
Management evaluates its tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Recognition of tax benefits of an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. At April 30, 2018, the Series has recorded no liability for net unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns.
The Series files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions, as required. No income tax returns are currently under investigation. The statute of limitations on the Series’ tax returns remains open for the years ended October 31, 2014 through October 31, 2017. The Series is 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.
Foreign Taxes
Based on the Series’ understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and currency purchase/repatriation transactions for foreign jurisdictions in which it invests, the Series will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign tax.
Distributions of Income and Gains
Distributions to shareholders of net investment income and net realized gains are made annually. An additional distribution may be necessary to avoid taxation of the Series. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Indemnifications
The Fund’s organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

Other
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. | Transactions with Affiliates and Other Agreements |
The Fund has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Advisor, for which the Series pays a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.60% of the Series’ average daily net assets. Prior to March 1, 2018, the amount paid to the Advisor for advisory services was to 0.70%.
Under the Agreement, personnel of the Advisor provide the Series with advice and assistance in the choice of investments and the execution of securities transactions, and otherwise maintain the Series’ organization. The Advisor also provides the Fund with necessary office space and fund administration and support services. The salaries of all officers of the Fund (except a percentage of the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer’s salary, which is paid by the Fund), and of all Directors who are “affiliated persons” of the Fund, or of the Advisor, and all personnel of the Fund, or of the Advisor, performing services relating to research, statistical and investment activities, are paid by the Advisor. Each “non-affiliated” Director receives an annual stipend, which is allocated among all the active series of the Fund. In addition, these Directors also receive a fee per Board meeting attended plus a fee for each committee meeting attended and are reimbursed for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with attending such meetings. The Fund also has an Audit Committee Chair, Governance & Nominating Committee Chair and Lead Independent Director who each receive an additional annual stipend for this role.
The Fund may enter into agreements with financial intermediaries pursuant to which the Fund may pay financial intermediaries for non-distribution related sub-transfer agency, administrative, sub-accounting, and other shareholder services in an annual amount not to exceed 0.15% of the average daily net assets of the Class I and Class S shares of the Series. Payments made pursuant to such agreements are generally based on the current assets and/or number of accounts of the Series attributable to the financial intermediary. Any payments made pursuant to such agreements may be in addition to, rather than in lieu of, any Distribution and Shareholder Services Fee payable under the Rule 12b-1 plan of the Fund.
The Advisor has contractually agreed, until at least February 28, 2019, to waive its management fee and, if necessary, pay other operating expenses of the Series in order to maintain total direct annual fund operating expenses for the Series at no more than 0.75% of average daily net assets each year. Accordingly, the Advisor waived fees of $43,590 for the six months ended April 30, 2018, which is included as a reduction of expenses on the Statement of Operations. The Advisor is not eligible to recoup any expenses that have been waived or reimbursed in prior years.
Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc., a registered broker-dealer affiliate of the Advisor, acts as distributor for the Fund’s shares. The services of Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc. are provided at no additional cost to the Series.
Pursuant to a master services agreement dated March 1, 2017, the Fund pays the Advisor an annual fee related to fund accounting and administration of 0.0085% on the first $25 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); 0.0075% on the next $15 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); and 0.0065% of average daily net assets in excess of $40 billion (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); plus a base fee of $30,400 per series. Additionally, certain transaction and out-of-pocket expenses, including charges for reporting relating to the Fund’s compliance program, are charged. The Advisor has agreements with BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“BNY”) under which BNY serves as sub-accountant services agent.
Expenses not directly attributable to a series are allocated based on each series’ relative net assets or number of accounts, depending on the expense.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
At April 30, 2018, two shareholder accounts owned a combined 31.6% of the Series. In addition, the Advisor and its affiliates owned 1.2% of the Series. Investment activities of these shareholders may have a material effect on the Series.
The Series may trade in instruments including written and purchased options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts and other derivatives in the normal course of investing activities to assist in managing exposure to various market risks. The Series may be subject to various elements of risk, which may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. These risks include: the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index; counterparty credit risk related to over the counter derivative counterparties’ failure to perform under contract terms; liquidity risk related to the lack of a liquid market for these contracts allowing the fund to close out its position(s); and documentation risk relating to disagreement over contract terms. No such investments were held by the Series as of April 30, 2018.
Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in securities of domestic companies and the U.S. Government. These risks include revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of foreign companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of comparable domestic companies and the U.S. Government.
8. | Federal Income Tax Information |
The amount and characterization of certain income and capital gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. The Series may periodically make reclassifications among its capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryovers) under income tax regulations, without impacting the Series’ net asset value. Any such reclassifications are not reflected in the financial highlights.
The final determination of the tax character of current year distributions will be made at the conclusion of the fiscal year. The tax character of distributions paid for the year ended October 31, 2017 were as follows:
| | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 15,662,741 | |

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement
(unaudited)
At the Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) Board of Directors’ (the “Board”) meeting, held on November 16, 2017, the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Fund and Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) was considered by the Board for renewal. In connection with the decision whether to renew the Agreement, a variety of material was provided to the Board in advance of the meeting for their review and consideration.
Representatives of the Advisor attended the meeting and presented additional oral information to the Board to assist the Board in its considerations. The discussion below outlines the materials and information presented to the Board in connection with the Board’s 2017 Annual consideration of the Agreement and the conclusions made by the Directors when determining to continue the Agreement.
| • | | The Board considered the nature and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Agreement for over 30 years including, among others: deciding what securities to purchase and sell for each Series; arranging for the purchase and sale of such securities by placing orders with broker-dealers; administering the affairs of the Fund (including the books and records of the Fund not maintained by third party service providers such as the custodian or transfer agent); arranging for the insurance coverage for the Fund; and supervising the preparation of tax returns, SEC filings (including registration statements) and reports to shareholders for the Fund. The Board also considered the Advisor’s personnel who perform services to the Fund, the strength of its compliance infrastructure, policies and procedures relating to compliance with securities regulations, reputation, expertise and resources in domestic and foreign financial markets. The Board discussed the quality of these services with representatives from the Advisor and concluded that the Advisor was performing its services to the Fund required under the Agreement in a reasonable manner. |
| • | | The Board considered the Advisor’s investments teams, including changes to the teams during the past year, investment team compensation and investment process. The Board considered the performance of each Series since its inception, as well as over multiple time periods including: one year, three year, five year, ten year, and current market cycle. A market cycle includes periods of both rising and falling markets. Returns for established benchmark indices for each Series were provided. In addition, the Board considered (and considers on a quarterly basis) a number of other factors relevant to performance at the meeting including: a peer group performance analysis consisting of Morningstar universes of mutual funds with similar investment objectives; the breadth of the Fund’s product offerings; and performance over reasonable time periods. The Board discussed with Representatives of the Advisor, short-term performance challenges in the Fund’s non-U.S. portfolios which have resulted in a downward trend in assets under management. After discussion, the Board concluded that the nature and quality of the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Fund, and the Series’ actual and comparative performance, especially over the current market cycle supported the renewal of the agreement. |
| • | | The Board considered the costs of the Advisor’s services and the profits of the Advisor as they relate to the Advisor’s services to the Fund under the Agreement. In reviewing the Advisor’s costs and profits, the Board discussed the Advisor’s revenues generated from the Fund and its expenses associated with providing the services under the Agreement. The Advisor presented the Board with information on firmwide investment management profitability to provide a comparison of the Advisor’s profitability from its Fund activities relative to its profitability from its other investment management business. In addition, the Board reviewed the Advisor’s expense allocation methodology used to calculate profitability since many of the Advisor’s resources and expenses are shared across the Advisor’s various investment management vehicles. The Board considered the Advisor’s expenses associated with Fund activities outside of the Agreement (such as expense reimbursements pursuant to expense caps and payments made by the Advisor to third party platforms on which shares of the Fund are available for purchase). After discussing the above costs and profits, the Board concluded that the Advisor’s profitability relating to its services provided under the Agreement was reasonable. |
| • | | The Board then considered whether economies of scale were being achieved by the Advisor with respect to its services to the Fund. The Board acknowledged the expense caps incorporated in the Fund’s current fee structure, which requires the Advisor to subsidize the expenses of the Series operating above their cap, noting that 26 Series of the Fund are currently receiving expense reimbursements from the Advisor. The Board concluded that based on the current fee structure and profitability, the Fund would need to grow in assets before the Advisor would be able to achieve meaningful economies of scale. |

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement
(unaudited)
| • | | The Board considered the fees and expenses of the various Series of the Fund. The Advisor provided the Board with information comparing each Series’ contractual management fees with the Advisor’s standard advisory fees for separate accounts and collective investment trusts. The Board considered that the range of services provided to the Series is more extensive than for the Advisor’s other clients due to additional infrastructure, administrative and regulatory requirements related to operating a mutual fund. The Advisor also presented the advisory fees and total expenses for each Series, including the advisory fee adjusted for any contractual expense waivers or reimbursements paid by the Advisor. The advisory fees, 12b-1 Distribution and Service Fees, other expenses (e.g. a combination of Shareholder Services Fees, routine operating expenses and Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses for fund-of-fund Series) and net expense ratios of each Series were compared and ranked (on both a mean and median basis) against funds of a similar size and with similar investment objectives and expense characteristics as disclosed on the Morningstar database. In addition, the Board considered fee reductions that went into effect for the Fund’s Target Series in October 2017, as well as projected fee and expense changes for certain Series approved by the Board in a prior Board meeting. These fee and expense changes would go into effect pursuant to a successful shareholder vote in 2018. Representatives of the Advisor discussed with the Board the comparisons and rankings of fees and net expense ratios for each Series of the Fund and the methodology behind the comparison. The Board considered the Advisor’s active portfolio management that results in portfolios that are more differentiated than the construction of their benchmarks. Based on their review of the information provided, the Board concluded that the fees and expenses of each Series of the Fund were reasonable on a comparative basis. |
| • | | The Board also considered the other benefits the Advisor derives from its relationship with the Fund. Such other benefits include participation in a joint insurance program, sharing of compensation expenses for certain shared personnel, relationships with large service providers and certain research services provided by soft dollars. The Board reviewed the broker-dealers who provided research to the Advisor and the products and services paid for, in whole or in part, using soft dollar commissions. Given the level of soft dollar transactions involving the Fund, the Board concluded that these additional benefits to the Advisor were reasonable. |
Based on the Board’s deliberations and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including a majority of Directors that are not “interested persons” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, concluded that the compensation under the Agreement was fair and reasonable in light of the services and expenses and such other matters as the Directors considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. Accordingly, the Board approved the renewal of the Agreement. In the course of their deliberations, the Directors did not identify any particular information that was all important or controlling.

Shareholder Expense Example - Pro-Blend® Conservative Term Series
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 in each class at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 Actual line for the Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of each class in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a class of the Series and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the Class in which you have invested 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Shareholder Expense Example - Pro-Blend® Moderate Term Series
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 in each class at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 Actual line for the Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of each class in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a class of the Series and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the Class in which you have invested 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | | $1,000.00 | | $1,018.10 | | $6.76 | | 1.35% |
Class R2 | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $1,000.00 | | $ 989.50 | | $9.13 | | 1.85% |
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | | $1,000.00 | | $1,015.62 | | $9.25 | | 1.85% |
*Expenses are equal to the Class’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Class’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

Shareholder Expense Example - Pro-Blend® Extended Term Series
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 in each class at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 Actual line for the Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of each class in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a class of the Series and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the Class in which you have invested 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

*Expenses are equal to the Class’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Class’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

Shareholder Expense Example - Pro-Blend® Maximum Term Series
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 in each class at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 Actual line for the Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of each class in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a class of the Series and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the Class in which you have invested 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | | $1,000.00 | | $1,015.62 | | $9.25 | | 1.85% |
*Expenses are equal to the Class’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Class’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Series. Each Series is an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 - Investment Companies, which is part of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Security Valuation
Portfolio securities, including domestic equities, foreign equities, warrants and options, listed on an exchange other than the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued at the latest quoted sales price of the exchange on which the security is primarily traded. Securities not traded on valuation date or securities not listed on an exchange are valued at the latest quoted bid price provided by the Fund’s pricing service. Securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued in accordance with the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.
Debt securities, including government bonds, foreign bonds, asset-backed securities, structured notes, supranational obligations, sovereign bonds, corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities will normally be valued on the basis of evaluated bid prices provided directly by an independent pricing service. The pricing services use multiple valuation techniques to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity exists, the pricing services may utilize a market-based approach through which quotes from market makers are used to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity may not exist or is limited, the pricing services also utilize proprietary valuation models which may consider market characteristics such as benchmark yield curves, option-adjusted spreads, credit spreads, estimated defaulted rates, coupon rates, anticipated timing of principal repayments, underlying collateral and other unique security features in order to estimate the relevant cash flows, which are then discounted to calculate the fair value. Certain investments in securities held by the Series may be valued on a

Security Valuation (continued)
basis of a price provided directly by a principal market maker. These prices may differ from the value that would have been used had a broader market for securities existed.
Short-term investments that mature in sixty days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value per share on valuation date.
Volume and level of activity in established markets for an asset or liability are evaluated to determine whether recent transactions and quoted prices are determinative of fair value. Where there have been significant decreases in volume and level of activity, further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value. The Series measure fair value in these instances by the use of inputs and valuation techniques which may be based upon current market prices of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity and industry and/or expectation of future cash flows. As a result of trading in relatively thin markets and/or markets that experience significant volatility, the prices used by the Series to value these securities may differ from the value that would be realized if these securities were sold, and the differences could be material.
Securities for which representative valuations or prices are not available from the Series’ pricing service may be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor under procedures approved by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such securities, the fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed. If trading or events occurring after the close of the principal market in which securities are traded are expected to materially affect the value of those securities, then they may be valued at their fair value, taking this trading or these events into account. In accordance with the procedures approved by the Board, the values of certain securities trading outside the U.S. were adjusted following the close of local trading using a factor from a third party vendor. The third party vendor uses statistical analyses and quantitative models, which consider among other things subsequent movement and changes in the prices of indices, securities and exchange rates in other markets, to determine the factors which are used to adjust local market prices. The value of securities used for net asset value calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities. It is the Fund’s policy to classify each foreign equity security where a factor from a third party vendor is provided as a Level 2 security.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Series’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in aggregate that is significant to their fair value measure. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the valuation levels used for major security types as of April 30, 2018 in valuing the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value:

Security Valuation (continued)
Please see the Investment Portfolio for each of the Series for foreign securities where a factor from a third party vendor was applied to determine the securities’ fair value following the close of local trading. Such securities are included in Level 2 in the table above.
There were no Level 3 securities held by any of the Pro-Blend® Series as of April 30,2018.
China literature ltd. - right was a Level 3 security held as of October 31, 2017. However, this security is no longer held by the Series.
*Other financial instruments are exchange traded options (Level 1 and Level 2).
The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of the valuation levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no significant transfers between levels during the six months ended April 30, 2018.
New Accounting Guidance
In March 2017, the FASB issued amended guidance to shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance to the Series.
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the Series is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discounts using the effective interest method, is earned from settlement date and accrued daily.
Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Most expenses of the Fund can be attributed to a specific series. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the series in the Fund in such a manner as deemed equitable by the Fund’s Board, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense.
Income, expenses (other than class specific expenses), and realized and unrealized gains and losses are prorated among the classes based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses are directly charged to that Class.
The Series use the identified cost method for determining realized gain or loss on investments for both financial statement and federal income tax reporting purposes.
Foreign Currency Translation
The books and records of the Series are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The Series do not isolate realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable to changes in the exchange rates from gains and losses that arise from changes in the fair value of investments. Such fluctuations are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses represent foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on securities transactions, gains and losses on disposition of foreign currencies and the difference between the amount of income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the books of the Series and the amounts actually received or paid.
Option Contracts
The Series may write (sell) or buy call or put options on securities and other financial instruments. When a Series writes a call, the Series gives the purchaser the right to buy the underlying security from the Series at the price specified in the option contract (the “exercise price”) at any time during the option period. When a Series writes a put option, the Series gives the

Option Contracts (continued)
purchaser the right to sell to the Series the underlying security at the exercise price at any time during the option period. The Series will only write options on a “covered basis.” This means that the Series will own the underlying security when the Series writes a call or the Series will put aside cash, U.S. Government securities, or other liquid assets in an amount not less than the exercise price at all times the put option is outstanding.
When a Series writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received is reflected as a liability and is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option. The Series, as a writer of an option, has no control over whether the underlying security or financial instrument may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security or financial instrument underlying the written option. There is a risk that the Series may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
Each Series may also purchase options in an attempt to hedge against fluctuations in the value of its portfolio and to protect against declines in the value of the securities. The premium paid by a Series for the purchase of an option is reflected as an investment and subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium paid.
When a security is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the security acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the security sold. When an option expires (or a Series enters into a closing transaction), the Series realizes a gain or loss on the option to the extent of the premium received or paid (or gain or loss to the extent the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premium paid or received).
The measurement of the risks associated with option contracts is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered. The counterparty for the Series’ written options contracts outstanding during the six months ended April 30, 2018 is Pershing LLC, a BNY Mellon Company.

Asset-Backed Securities
Each Series may invest in asset-backed securities. Asset-backed securities are generally issued as pass-through certificates or as debt instruments. Asset-backed securities issued as pass-through certificates represent undivided fractional ownership interests in an underlying pool of assets. Asset-backed securities issued as debt instruments, which are also known as collateralized obligations, are typically issued as the debt of a special purpose entity organized solely for the purpose of owning such assets and issuing such debt. Asset-backed securities are often backed by a pool of assets representing the obligations of a number of different parties. The yield characteristics of certain asset-backed securities may differ from traditional debt

Asset-Backed Securities (continued)
securities. One such major difference is that all or a principal part of the obligations may be prepaid at any time because the underlying assets (i.e. loans) may be prepaid at any time. As a result, a decrease in interest rates in the market may result in increases in the level of prepayments as borrowers, particularly mortgagors, refinance and repay their loans. An increased prepayment rate with respect to an asset-backed security will have the effect of shortening the maturity of the security. In addition, a fund may subsequently have to reinvest the proceeds at lower interest rates. If a fund has purchased such an asset-backed security at a premium, a faster than anticipated prepayment rate could result in a loss of principal to the extent of the premium paid.
Mortgage-Backed Securities
Each Series may invest in mortgage-backed securities (“MBS” or pass-through certificates) that represent an interest in a pool of specific underlying mortgage loans and entitle the fund to the periodic payments of principal and interest from those mortgages. MBS may be issued by government agencies or corporations, or private issuers. Most MBS issued by government agencies are guaranteed; however, the degree of protection differs based on the issuer. For MBS there are a number of important differences among the agencies and instrumentalities of the U.S. Government that issue mortgage-related securities and among the securities that they issue. For example, mortgage-related securities guaranteed by Ginnie Mae are guaranteed as to the timely payment of principal and interest by Ginnie Mae and such guarantee is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. However, mortgage-related securities issued by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, including Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae guaranteed mortgage pass-through certificates, which are solely the obligations of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, are not backed by or entitled to the full faith and credit of the United States, but are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury. Non-agency mortgage-backed securities are securities issued by non-governmental issuers and have no direct or indirect government guarantees of payment and are subject to various risks. Non-agency mortgage loans are obligations of the borrowers thereunder only and are not typically insured or guaranteed by any other person or entity. The ability of a borrower to repay a loan is dependent upon the income or assets of the borrower. A number of factors, including a general economic downturn, acts of God, terrorism, social unrest and civil disturbances, may impair a borrower’s ability to repay its loans.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds
Each Series may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. If the index measuring inflation rises or falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds will be adjusted upward or downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a larger or smaller principal amount) will be increased or reduced, respectively. Any upward or downward adjustment in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statements of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity. Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed in the case of U.S. Treasury inflation-indexed bonds. For bonds that do not provide a similar guarantee, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal.
Securities Purchased on a When-Issued Basis or Forward Commitment
Each Series may purchase securities on a when-issued basis or forward commitment. These transactions involve a commitment by the Series to purchase securities for a predetermined price with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When such purchases are outstanding, the Series will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed delivery basis, the Series assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and take such fluctuations into account when determining their net asset value. The Series may sell the when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss.
In connection with their ability to purchase or sell securities on a forward commitment basis, the Series may enter into forward roll transactions principally using To Be Announced (TBA) securities. Forward roll transactions require the sale of securities for delivery in the current month, and a simultaneous agreement to repurchase substantially similar (same type, coupon and maturity) securities on a specified future date. Risks of entering into forward roll transactions include the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement; the potential of the Series to receive inferior securities at redelivery as

compared to the securities sold to the counterparty; counterparty credit risk; and the potential pay down speed variance between the mortgage-backed pools. During the roll period, the Series forgoes principal and interest paid on the securities. The Series accounts for such dollar rolls as purchases and sales. No such investments were held by the Series on April 30, 2018.
Interest Only Securities
The Series may invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities issued by the U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities. Stripped mortgage-backed securities are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. In certain cases, one class will receive all of the interest (the interest-only or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only or “PO” class). The yield to maturity on IOs is sensitive to the rate of principal repayments (including prepayments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and principal payments may have a material effect on yield to maturity. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, a Series may not fully recoup its initial investment in IOs.
Restricted Securities
Restricted securities are purchased in private placement transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may have contractual restrictions on resale. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of each applicable Series’ Investment Portfolio.
Federal Taxes
Each Series’ policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. The Series are not subject to federal income tax or excise tax to the extent that each Series distributes to shareholders each year its taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, in accordance with requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax or excise tax has been made in the financial statements.
Management evaluates its tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Recognition of tax benefits of an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. At April 30, 2018, the Series have recorded no liability for net unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns.
The Series file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions, as required. No income tax returns are currently under investigation. The statute of limitations on the Series’ tax returns remains open for the years ended October 31, 2014 through October 31, 2017. The Fund is 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.
Foreign Taxes
Based on the Series’ understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and currency purchase/repatriation transactions for foreign jurisdictions in which they invest, the Series will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign tax.
Distributions of Income and Gains
Distributions to shareholders of net investment income are made semi-annually. Distributions of net realized gains are made annually. An additional distribution may be necessary to avoid taxation of a Series. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Indemnifications
The Fund’s organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is

unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. | Transactions with Affiliates |
The Fund has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Advisor, for which each Series pays a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.60% for Pro-Blend® Conservative Term Series and 0.75% for Pro-Blend® Moderate Term Series, Pro-Blend® Extended Term Series and Pro-Blend® Maximum Term Series, of the Series’ average daily net assets.
Under the Agreement, personnel of the Advisor provide the Series with advice and assistance in the choice of investments and the execution of securities transactions, and otherwise maintain the Series’ organization. The Advisor also provides the Fund with necessary office space and fund administration and support services. The salaries of all officers of the Fund (except a percentage of the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer’s salary, which is paid by the Fund), and of all Directors who are “affiliated persons” of the Fund, or of the Advisor, and all personnel of the Fund, or of the Advisor, performing services relating to research, statistical and investment activities, are paid by the Advisor. Each “non-affiliated” Director receives an annual stipend, which is allocated among all the active series of the Fund. In addition, these Directors also receive a fee per Board meeting attended plus a fee for each committee meeting attended and are reimbursed for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with attending such meetings. The Fund also has an Audit Committee Chair, Governance & Nominating Committee Chair and Lead Independent Director who each receive an additional annual stipend for this role.
Class S shares of each Series are subject to a shareholder services fee in accordance with a shareholder services plan adopted by the Fund’s Board. The shareholder services fee is intended to compensate financial intermediaries, including affiliates of the Fund, in connection with the provision of direct client service, personal services, maintenance of shareholder accounts and reporting services. For these services, Class S of each Series pays a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.20% for Pro-Blend® Conservative Term Series Class S and 0.25% for Pro-Blend® Moderate Term Series Class S, Pro-Blend® Extended Term Series Class S and Pro-Blend® Maximum Term Series Class S, of the Class’ average daily net assets. The Fund has a Shareholder Services Agreement with the Advisor, for which the Advisor receives the shareholder services fee as stated above.
The Advisor has contractually agreed, until at least February 28, 2019, to waive its management fee and, if necessary, pay other operating expenses of the Series in order to maintain total direct annual fund operating expenses for the Series, exclusive of shareholder services fees and distribution and service (12b-1) fees, at no more than the amounts presented in the following table, of average daily net assets each year.
| | | | |

For the six months ended April 30, 2018, the Advisor waived the following amounts which are included as a reduction of expenses on the Statements of Operations:
| | | | |
SERIES/CLASS | | WAIVER AMOUNT | |
Pro-Blend Moderate Term Series | | $ | 13,367 | |
Pro-Blend Extended Term Series | | | 39,115 | |
Pro-Blend Maximum Term Series | | | 73,671 | |
The Advisor is not eligible to recoup any expenses that have been waived or reimbursed in prior years.
Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc., a registered broker-dealer affiliate of the Advisor, acts as distributor for the Fund’s shares. Each Series compensates the distributor for distributing and servicing the Series’ Class R2 and Class R shares pursuant to a distribution plan adopted under Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, regardless of expenses actually incurred. Under the agreement, each Series pays distribution and service fees to the distributor at an annual rate of 1.00% of average daily net assets attributable to Class R2 shares and an annual rate of 0.50% of daily net assets attributable to Class R shares. There are no distribution and service fees on the Class S or Class I shares of each Series. The fees are accrued daily and paid monthly.
Pursuant to a master services agreement dated March 1, 2017, the Fund pays the Advisor an annual fee related to fund accounting and administration of 0.0085% on the first $25 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); 0.0075% on the next $15 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); and 0.0065% of average daily net assets in excess of $40 billion (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); plus a base fee of $30,400 per series. Additionally, certain transaction and out-of-pocket expenses, including charges for reporting relating to the Fund’s compliance program, are charged. The Advisor has agreements with BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“BNY”) under which BNY serves as sub-accountant services agent.
Expenses not directly attributable to a series are allocated based on each series’ relative net assets or number of accounts, depending on the expense.

At April 30, 2018, one shareholder owned 10.2% of Pro-Blend® Conservative Term Series and one shareholder owned 19.0% of Pro-Blend® Moderate Term Series. Investment activities of these shareholders may have a material effect on the respective Series.
6. | Financial Instruments and Loan Assignments |
The Series may trade in instruments including written and purchased options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts and other derivatives in the normal course of investing activities to assist in managing exposure to various market risks. The Series may be subject to various elements of risk which may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. These risks include: the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index; counterparty credit risk related to over the counter derivative counterparties’ failure to perform under contract terms; liquidity risk related to the lack of a liquid market for these contracts allowing the fund to close out its position(s); and documentation risk relating to disagreement over contract terms. At April 30, 2018, Pro-Blend® Conservative Term Series, Pro-Blend® Moderate Term Series and Pro-Blend® Extended Term Series invested in options contracts (equity risk).
The Series may invest in a loan assignment of all or a portion of the loans. The Series has direct rights against the borrower on a loan when it purchases an assignment; however, the Series’ rights may be more limited than the lender from which it acquired the assignment and the Series may be able to enforce its rights only through an administrative agent. Loan assignments are

vulnerable to market conditions and may become illiquid due to economic conditions or other events may reduce the demand for loan assignments and certain loan assignments which were liquid when purchased may become illiquid. At April 30, 2018, the Series did not hold any loan assignments.
Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in securities of domestic companies and the U.S. Government. These risks include revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of foreign companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of comparable domestic companies and the U.S. Government.
8. | Federal Income Tax Information |
The amount and characterization of certain income and capital gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Each Series may periodically make reclassifications among its capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryovers) under income tax regulations, without impacting the Series’ net asset value. Any such reclassifications are not reflected in the financial highlights.
The final determination of the tax character of current year distributions will be made at the conclusion of the fiscal year. The tax character of distributions paid for the year ended October 31, 2017 were as follows:

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement
(unaudited)
At the Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) Board of Directors’ (the “Board”) meeting, held on November 16, 2017, the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Fund and Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) was considered by the Board for renewal. In connection with the decision whether to renew the Agreement, a variety of material was provided to the Board in advance of the meeting for their review and consideration.
Representatives of the Advisor attended the meeting and presented additional oral information to the Board to assist the Board in its considerations. The discussion below outlines the materials and information presented to the Board in connection with the Board’s 2017 Annual consideration of the Agreement and the conclusions made by the Directors when determining to continue the Agreement.
| • | | The Board considered the nature and quality of services provided by the Advisor under the Agreement for over 30 years including, among others: deciding what securities to purchase and sell for each Series; arranging for the purchase and sale of such securities by placing orders with broker-dealers; administering the affairs of the Fund (including the books and records of the Fund not maintained by third party service providers such as the custodian or transfer agent); arranging for the insurance coverage for the Fund; and supervising the preparation of tax returns, SEC filings (including registration statements) and reports to shareholders for the Fund. The Board also considered the Advisor’s personnel who perform services to the Fund, the strength of its compliance infrastructure, policies and procedures relating to compliance with securities regulations, reputation, expertise and resources in domestic and foreign financial markets. The Board discussed the quality of these services with representatives from the Advisor and concluded that the Advisor was performing its services to the Fund required under the Agreement in a reasonable manner. |
| • | | The Board considered the Advisor’s investments teams, including changes to the teams during the past year, investment team compensation and investment process. The Board considered the performance of each Series since its inception, as well as over multiple time periods including: one year, three year, five year, ten year, and current market cycle. A market cycle includes periods of both rising and falling markets. Returns for established benchmark indices for each Series were provided. In addition, the Board considered (and considers on a quarterly basis) a number of other factors relevant to performance at the meeting including: a peer group performance analysis consisting of Morningstar universes of mutual funds with similar investment objectives; the breadth of the Fund’s product offerings; and performance over reasonable time periods. The Board discussed with Representatives of the Advisor, short-term performance challenges in the Fund’s non-U.S. portfolios which have resulted in a downward trend in assets under management. After discussion, the Board concluded that the nature and quality of the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Fund, and the Series’ actual and comparative performance, especially over the current market cycle supported the renewal of the agreement. |
| • | | The Board considered the costs of the Advisor’s services and the profits of the Advisor as they relate to the Advisor’s services to the Fund under the Agreement. In reviewing the Advisor’s costs and profits, the Board discussed the Advisor’s revenues generated from the Fund and its expenses associated with providing the services under the Agreement. The Advisor presented the Board with information on firmwide investment management profitability to provide a comparison of the Advisor’s profitability from its Fund activities relative to its profitability from its other investment management business. In addition, the Board reviewed the Advisor’s expense allocation methodology used to calculate profitability since many of the Advisor’s resources and expenses are shared across the Advisor’s various investment management vehicles. The Board considered the Advisor’s expenses associated with Fund activities outside of the Agreement (such as expense reimbursements pursuant to expense caps and payments made by the Advisor to third party platforms on which shares of the Fund are available for purchase). After discussing the above costs and profits, the Board concluded that the Advisor’s profitability relating to its services provided under the Agreement was reasonable. |
| • | | The Board then considered whether economies of scale were being achieved by the Advisor with respect to its services to the Fund. The Board acknowledged the expense caps incorporated in the Fund’s current fee structure, which requires the Advisor to subsidize the expenses of the Series operating above their cap, noting that 26 Series of the Fund are currently receiving expense reimbursements from the Advisor. The Board concluded that based on the current fee structure and profitability, the Fund would need to grow in assets before the Advisor would be able to achieve meaningful economies of scale. |

| • | | The Board considered the fees and expenses of the various Series of the Fund. The Advisor provided the Board with information comparing each Series’ contractual management fees with the Advisor’s standard advisory fees for separate accounts and collective investment trusts. The Board considered that the range of services provided to the Series is more extensive than for the Advisor’s other clients due to additional infrastructure, administrative and regulatory requirements related to operating a mutual fund. The Advisor also presented the advisory fees and total expenses for each Series, including the advisory fee adjusted for any contractual expense waivers or reimbursements paid by the Advisor. The advisory fees, 12b-1 Distribution and Service Fees, other expenses (e.g. a combination of Shareholder Services Fees, routine operating expenses and Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses for fund-of-fund Series) and net expense ratios of each Series were compared and ranked (on both a mean and median basis) against funds of a similar size and with similar investment objectives and expense characteristics as disclosed on the Morningstar database. In addition, the Board considered fee reductions that went into effect for the Fund’s Target Series in October 2017, as well as projected fee and expense changes for certain Series approved by the Board in a prior Board meeting. These fee and expense changes would go into effect pursuant to a successful shareholder vote in 2018. Representatives of the Advisor discussed with the Board the comparisons and rankings of fees and net expense ratios for each Series of the Fund and the methodology behind the comparison. The Board considered the Advisor’s active portfolio management that results in portfolios that are more differentiated than the construction of their benchmarks. Based on their review of the information provided, the Board concluded that the fees and expenses of each Series of the Fund were reasonable on a comparative basis. |
| • | | The Board also considered the other benefits the Advisor derives from its relationship with the Fund. Such other benefits include participation in a joint insurance program, sharing of compensation expenses for certain shared personnel, relationships with large service providers and certain research services provided by soft dollars. The Board reviewed the broker-dealers who provided research to the Advisor and the products and services paid for, in whole or in part, using soft dollar commissions. Given the level of soft dollar transactions involving the Fund, the Board concluded that these additional benefits to the Advisor were reasonable. |
Based on the Board’s deliberations and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including a majority of Directors that are not “interested persons” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, concluded that the compensation under the Agreement was fair and reasonable in light of the services and expenses and such other matters as the Directors considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. Accordingly, the Board approved the renewal of the Agreement. In the course of their deliberations, the Directors did not identify any particular information that was all important or controlling.

Rainier International Discovery Series
Shareholder Expense Example
(unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Series, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder service fees and other Series expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Series 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 in each class at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018).
Actual Expenses
The Actual lines of the table below provide 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 Actual line for the Class in which you have invested 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 Hypothetical lines of each Class in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a class of the Series and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class in which you have invested 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

| | BEGINNING ACCOUNT VALUE 11/1/17 | | | ENDING ACCOUNT VALUE 4/30/18 | | | EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD* 11/1/17-4/30/18 | | | ANNUALIZED EXPENSE RATIO | |
Class K | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | | $1,000.00 | | | | $1,060.70 | | | | $7.15 | | | | 1.40% | |
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | | | $1,000.00 | | | | $1,017.85 | | | | $7.00 | | | | 1.40% | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | | $1,000.00 | | | | $1,061.50 | | | | $5.78 | | | | 1.13% | |
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | | | $1,000.00 | | | | $1,019.19 | | | | $5.66 | | | | 1.13% | |
Class R6 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | | $1,000.00 | | | | $1,062.40 | | | | $5.11 | | | | 1.00% | |
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | | | $1,000.00 | | | | $1,019.84 | | | | $5.01 | | | | 1.00% | |
*Expenses are equal to each Class’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 to reflect the one-half year period. The Series’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period.

Rainier International Discovery Series
Notes to Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Rainier International Discovery Series (the “Series”) is a no-load diversified series of Manning & Napier Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”). The Fund is organized in Maryland and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.
The Series’ investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation.
The Fund’s advisor is Manning & Napier Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”). Shares of the Series are offered to investors, clients and employees of the Advisor and its affiliates. The Series is authorized to issue three classes of shares (Class K, Class I and Class R6). Class R6 shares of the Series were issued on August 21, 2017. Each class of shares is substantially the same, except that Class K shares bear Distribution and Service (12b-1) Fees. The total authorized capital stock of the Fund consists of 15 billion shares of common stock each having a par value of $0.01. As of April 30, 2018, 10.9 billion shares have been designated in total among 38 series, of which 100 million have been designated as Rainier International Discovery Series Class K common stock, 100 million have been designated as Rainier International Discovery Series Class I common stock and 100 million have been designated as Rainier International Discovery Series Class R6 common stock.
Reorganization
The Series is the successor in interest to the Rainier International Discovery Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”), which had the same investment objective and was included as a series of another investment company, Rainier Investment Management Mutual Funds (“Predecessor Trust”), that was advised by Rainier Investment Management, LLC (an affiliated advisor of the Fund). The shareholders of the Predecessor Fund approved the reorganization of the Institutional shares and Class A shares of the Predecessor Fund with and into the Class I and Class K shares of the Series, respectively. Effective as of the close of business on August 21, 2017 (the “merger date”), the assets and liabilities of the Predecessor Fund were transferred to the Series.
The investment portfolio of the Predecessor Fund, with fair value of $271,784,669 and identified cost of $213,126,044 on August 21, 2017 was the principal asset acquired. Net assets and shares outstanding on August 21, 2017 were $163,001,355 and 8,409,569 for Institutional shares and $111,408,266 and 5,801,583 for Class A shares, respectively, all of which were transferred by a tax-free exchange into the Fund at Net Asset Value at the close of business on August 21, 2017. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by the Series were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Predecessor Fund was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of the Series’ realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
As the Series was a shell fund prior to the merger date, the results of operations for the year ended October 31, 2017 represents the pro-forma results. Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition date, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Predecessor Fund that have been included in the Series’ Statement of Operations since the merger date, August 21, 2017.
The majority of the expenses incurred by the Series in connection with the reorganization were paid by the Advisor. The Series paid certain expenses, including half of the cost of the proxy, such as printing and solicitation, and all of the legal fees incurred in connection to the reorganization. The fiscal year end of the Predecessor Fund was March 31, 2017. Operations prior to August 21, 2017 were for the Predecessor Fund. The Series changed its fiscal year end to October 31, 2017 to reflect the fiscal year end of the Fund.
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Series. The Series is an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 - Investment Companies, which is part of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Security Valuation
Portfolio securities, including domestic equities, foreign equities, warrants and options, listed on an exchange other than the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued at the latest quoted sales price of the exchange on which the security is primarily traded. Securities not traded on valuation date or securities not listed on an exchange are valued at the latest quoted bid price provided by the Fund’s pricing service. Securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued in accordance with the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.
Short-term investments that mature in sixty days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value per share on valuation date.
Volume and level of activity in established markets for an asset or liability are evaluated to determine whether recent transactions and quoted prices are determinative of fair value. Where there have been significant decreases in volume and level of activity, further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value. The Series measures fair value in these instances by the use of inputs and valuation techniques which may be based upon current market prices of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity and industry and/or expectation of future cash flows. As a result of trading in relatively thin markets and/or markets that experience significant volatility, the prices used by the Series to value these securities may differ from the value that would be realized if these securities were sold, and the differences could be material.
Securities for which representative valuations or prices are not available from the Series’ pricing service may be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor under procedures approved by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such securities, the fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed. If trading or events occurring after the close of the principal market in which securities are traded are expected to materially affect the value of those securities, then they may be valued at their fair value, taking this trading or these events into account. In accordance with the procedures approved by the Board, the values of certain securities trading outside the U.S. were adjusted following the close of local trading using a factor from a third party vendor. The third party vendor uses statistical analyses and quantitative models, which consider among other things subsequent movement and changes in the prices of indices, securities and exchange rates in other markets, to determine the factors which are used to adjust local market prices. The value of securities used for net asset value calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities. It is the Fund’s policy to classify each foreign equity security where a factor from a third party vendor is applied as a Level 2 security.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 includes other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Level 3 includes significant unobservable inputs (including the Series’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the valuation levels used for major security types as of April 30, 2018 in valuing the Series’ assets or liabilities carried at fair value:

Please see the Investment Portfolio for foreign securities where a factor from a third party vendor was applied to determine the securities’ fair value following the close of local trading. Such securities are included in Level 2 in the table above.
There were no Level 3 securities held by the Series as of October 31, 2017 and April 30, 2018.
During the six months ended April 30, 2018, the Series had transfers of $194,386,332 or 62.63% of net assets as of October 31, 2017 from Level 1 to Level 2. Transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 are due to a decline or an increase in market activity, e.g., frequency of trades, which resulted in a decrease or increase in available market inputs to determine price. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of the valuation levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.
New Accounting Guidance
In March 2017, the FASB issued amended guidance to shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance to the Series.
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the Series is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discounts using the effective interest method, is earned from settlement date and accrued daily.
Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Most expenses of the Fund can be attributed to a specific series. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the series in the Fund in such a manner as deemed equitable by the Fund’s Board, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense. Income, expenses (other than shareholder services fees), and realized and unrealized gains and losses are prorated among the classes based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses are directly charged to that class.
The Series uses the identified cost method for determining realized gain or loss on investments for both financial statement and federal income tax reporting purposes.
Foreign Currency Translation
The books and records of the Series are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The Series does not isolate realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable to changes in the exchange rates from gains and losses that arise from changes in the fair value of investments. Such fluctuations are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses represent foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on securities transactions, gains and losses on disposition of foreign currencies and the difference between the amount of income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the books of the Series and the amounts actually received or paid.

Restricted Securities
Restricted securities are purchased in private placement transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may have contractual restrictions on resale. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Investment Portfolio.
Federal Taxes
The Series’ policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. The Series is not subject to federal income tax or excise tax to the extent that the Series distributes to shareholders each year its taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, in accordance with requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax or excise tax has been made in the financial statements.
Management evaluates its tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Recognition of tax benefits of an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. At April 30, 2018, the Series has recorded no liability for net unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns.
The Series files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions, as required. No income tax returns are currently under investigation. The statute of limitations on the Series’ tax returns remains open for the three years ended March 31, 2014 through March 31, 2017 and the period ended October 31, 2017. The Series is 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.
Foreign Taxes
Based on the Series’ understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and currency purchase/repatriation transactions for foreign jurisdictions in which it invests, the Series will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign tax. The Series is subject to a tax imposed on short term capital gains on securities of issuers domiciled in India. The Series records an estimated deferred tax liability for securities that have been held for less than a year at the end of the reporting period, assuming those positions were disposed of at the end of the period. This amount is reported in Accrued foreign capital gains tax in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized losses on the sale of securities of issuers domiciled in India can be carried forward for eight years to offset potential future short term realized capital gains.
Distributions of Income and Gains
Distributions to shareholders of net investment income and net realized gains are made annually. An additional distribution may be necessary to avoid taxation of the Series. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Indemnifications
The Fund’s organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. | Transactions with Affiliates and Other Agreements |
The Fund has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Advisor, for which the Series pays a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.90% of the Series’ average daily net assets. The investment sub-advisor of the Series is Rainier Investment Management, LLC (“Rainier” or the “Sub-Advisor”). The Advisor pays the Sub-Advisor out of the fee received from the Series at an annual rate of 0.70% of the Series’ average daily net assets.
Under the Agreement, personnel of the Advisor provide the Series with advice and assistance in the choice of investments and the execution of securities transactions, and otherwise maintain the Series’ organization. The Advisor also provides the Fund with necessary office space and fund administration and support services. The salaries of all officers of the Fund (except a percentage of the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer’s salary, which is paid by the Fund), and of all Directors who are “affiliated persons” of the Fund, or of the Advisor, and all personnel of the Fund, or of the Advisor, performing services relating to research, statistical and investment activities, are paid by the Advisor and/or Sub-Advisor. Each “non-affiliated” Director receives an annual stipend, which is allocated among all the active series of the Fund. In addition, these Directors also receive a fee per Board meeting attended plus a fee for each committee meeting attended and are reimbursed for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with attending such meetings. The Fund also has an Audit Committee Chair, Governance & Nominating Committee Chair and Lead Independent Director who each receive an additional annual stipend for each role.
The Fund may enter into agreements with financial intermediaries pursuant to which the Fund may pay financial intermediaries for non-distribution related sub-transfer agency, administrative, sub-accounting, and other shareholder services in an amount not to exceed 0.15% of the average daily net assets of the Class K shares and Class I shares. Payments made pursuant to such agreements are generally based on the current assets and/or number of accounts of the Series attributable to the financial intermediary. Any payments made pursuant to such agreements may be in addition to, rather than in lieu of, any Distribution and Shareholder Services Fee payable under the Rule 12b-1 plan of the Fund.
The Advisor has contractually agreed, until at least February 28, 2019, to waive its management fee and, if necessary, pay other operating expenses of the Series in order to maintain total direct annual fund operating expenses for the Series, exclusive of Distribution and Service (12b-1) Fees, at no more than 1.15% of the average daily net assets of the Class K and Class I shares, and 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Class R6 shares. Accordingly, the Advisor waived fees of $25,883 for the six months ended April 30, 2018, which is included as a reduction of expenses on the Statement of Operations. The Advisor is not eligible to recoup any expenses that have been waived or reimbursed in prior years.
During the six months ended April 30, 2018, a trade processing error was discovered for which it was determined that the Advisor would reimburse the Series $10,472. The impact of the Advisor’s contribution on the Series’ total return was immaterial. As of April 30, 2018, the respective amount is included in net realized gain (loss) on investments on the Statement of Operations.
Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc., a registered broker-dealer affiliate of the Advisor, acts as distributor for the Fund’s shares. The Series compensates the distributor for distributing and servicing the Series’ Class K shares pursuant to a distribution plan adopted under Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, regardless of expenses actually incurred. Under the agreement, the Series pays distribution and service fees to the distributor at an annual rate of 0.25% of average daily net assets attributable to Class K shares. There are no distribution and service fees on the Class I or Class R6 shares. The fees are accrued daily and paid monthly.
Pursuant to a master services agreement dated March 1, 2017, the Fund pays the Advisor an annual fee related to fund accounting and administration of 0.0085% on the first $25 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); 0.0075% on the next $15 billion of average daily net assets (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); and 0.0065% of average daily net assets in excess of $40 billion (excluding Target Series and Strategic Income Series); plus a base fee of $30,400 per series. Additionally, certain transaction and out-of-pocket expenses, including charges for reporting relating to the Fund’s compliance program, are charged. The Advisor has agreements with BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“BNY”) under which BNY serves as sub-accountant services agent.

1Includes capital stock transactions for the predecessor fund, Rainier International Discovery Fund.
At April 30, 2018, one shareholder account owned 13.9% of the Series. In addition, the Advisor and its affiliates owned less than 0.1% of the Series. Investment activities of these shareholders may have a material effect on the Series.
The Series may trade in instruments including futures contracts and other derivatives in the normal course of investing activities to assist in managing exposure to various market risks. The Series may be subject to various elements of risk, which may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. These risks include: the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index; counterparty credit risk related to over the counter derivative counterparties’ failure to perform under contract terms; liquidity risk

related to the lack of a liquid market for these contracts allowing the fund to close out its position(s); and documentation risk relating to disagreement over contract terms. No such investments were held by the Series as of April 30, 2018.
Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in securities of domestic companies and the U.S. Government. These risks include revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of foreign companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of comparable domestic companies and the U.S. Government.
8. | Federal Income Tax Information |
The amount and characterization of certain income and capital gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. The Series may periodically make reclassifications among its capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryovers) under income tax regulations, without impacting the Series’ net asset value. Any such reclassifications are not reflected in the financial highlights.
The final determination of the tax character of current year distributions will be made at the conclusion of the fiscal year.
At April 30, 2018, the identified cost for federal income tax purposes, the resulting gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation, and the net unrealized appreciation were as follows:
| | | | | | |
| | Cost for federal income tax purposes | | $ | 342,419,969 | |
| | Unrealized appreciation | | | 72,078,878 | |
| | Unrealized depreciation | | | (3,597,281 | ) |
| | | | | | |
| | Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 68,481,597 | |
| | | | | | |
At October 31, 2017 the Series had net short-term capital loss carryforwards of $2,856,345 carryforwards, which may be carried forward indefinitely.
