next

receive
4
stars,
the
next

the
next

The
Overall
Morningstar
Rating
for
a
managed
product
is
derived
from
a
weighted
average
of
the
performance
figures
associated
with
its
three-,
five-,
and
10-year
(if
applicable)
Morningstar
Rating
metrics.
The
weights
are:
100%
three-year
rating
for
36-59
months
of
total
returns,
60%
five-year
rating/40%
three-year
rating
for
60-119
months
of
total
returns,
and
50%
10-year
rating/30%
five-year
rating/20%
three-year
rating
for
120
or
more
months
of
total
returns.
While
the
10-year
overall
star
rating
formula
seems
to
give
the
most
weight
to
the
10-year
period,
the
most
recent
three-year
period
actually
has
the
greatest
impact
because
it
is
included
in
all
three
rating
periods.
B
Morningstar
Sustainability
Ratings
are
as
of
October
31,
2024.
The
Morningstar
Sustainability
Rating™
is
intended
to
measure
how
well
the
issuing
companies
of
the
securities
within
a
fund’s
portfolio
are
managing
their
environmental,
social,
and
governance
(“ESG”)
risks
and
opportunities
relative
to
the
fund’s
Morningstar
category
peers.
The
Morningstar
Sustainability
Rating
calculation
is
a
two-step
process.
First,
each
fund
with
at
least
50%
of
assets
covered
by
a
company-level
ESG
score
from
Sustainalytics
receives
a
Morningstar
Portfolio
Sustainability
Score™.
The
Morningstar
Portfolio
Sustainability
Score
is
an
asset-weighted
average
of
normalized
company-level
ESG
scores
with
deductions
made
for
controversial
incidents
by
the
issuing
companies,
such
as
environmental
accidents,
fraud,
or
discriminatory
behavior.
The
Morningstar
Sustainability
Rating
is
then
assigned
to
all
scored
funds
within
Morningstar
Categories
in
which
at
least
ten
(10)
funds
receive
a
Portfolio
Sustainability
Score
and
is
determined
by
each
fund's
rank
within
the
following
distribution:
High
(highest
10%),
Above
Average
(next
22.5%),
Average
(next
35%),
Below
Average
(next
22.5%),
and
Low
(lowest
10%).
The
Morningstar
Sustainability
Rating
is
depicted
by
globe
icons
where
High
equals
5
globes
and
Low
equals
1
globe.
A
Sustainability
Rating
is
assigned
to
any
fund
that
has
more
than
half
of
its
underlying
assets
rated
by
Sustainalytics
and
is
within
a
Morningstar
Category
with
at
least
10
scored
funds;
therefore,
the
rating
is
not
limited
to
funds
with
explicit
sustainable
or
responsible
investment
mandates.
Morningstar
updates
its
Sustainability
Ratings
monthly.
Portfolios
receive
a
Morningstar
Portfolio
Sustainability
Score
and
Sustainability
Rating
one
month
and
six
business
days
after
their
reported
as-of
date
based
on
the
most
recent
portfolio.
As
part
of
the
evaluation
process,
Morningstar
uses
Sustainalytics’
ESG
scores
from
the
same
month
as
the
portfolio
as-of
date.
The
Fund’s
portfolios
are
actively
managed
and
subject
to
change,
which
may
result
in
a
different
Morningstar
Sustainability
Score
and
Rating
each
month.
Amana
Growth
Fund
and
Amana
Developing
World
Fund
were
each
rated
on
100%
of
Assets
Under

Amana
Income
Fund
was
rated
on
98%
of
Assets
Under

Amana
Participation
Fund
was
rated
on
91%
of

%
Rank
in
Category
is
the
fund’s
percentile
rank
for
the
specified
time
period
relative
to
all
funds
that
have
the
same
Morningstar
category.
The
highest
(or
most
favorable)
percentile
rank
is
1
and
the
lowest
(or
least
favorable)
percentile
rank
is
100.
The
top-
performing
fund
in
a
category
will
always
receive
a
rank
of
1.
Percentile
ranks
within
categories
are
most
useful
in
those
categories
that
have
a
large
number
of
funds.
The
Amana
Mutual
Funds
offer
two
share
classes
–
Investor
Shares
and
Institutional
Shares,
each
of
which
has
different
expense
structures.

ratings
are
based
on
the
historical
adjusted
returns
prior
to
the
inception
date
of
the
Institutional
Shares
and
reflect
the
historical

Morningstar
Carbon
Metrics
(as
of
October
31,
2024)
Morningstar
carbon
metrics
are
asset-weighted
portfolio
calculations
based
on
their
Sustainalytics
subsidiary's
carbon-risk
research.
Based
on
two
of
these
metrics
–
Carbon
Risk
Score
and
Fossil
Fund
Involvement
%
–
funds
may
receive
the
Low
Carbon
designation,
which
allows
investors
to
easily
identify
low-carbon
funds
within
the
global
universe.
The
portfolio
Carbon
Risk
Score
is
a
number
between
0
and
100
(a
lower
score
is
better).
A
portfolio's
Carbon
Risk
Score
is
the
asset-weighted
sum
of
the
carbon
risk
scores
of
its
holdings,
averaged
over
the
trailing
12
months.
The
carbon
risk
of
a
company
is
Sustainalytics'
evaluation
of
the
degree
to
which
a
firm's
activities
and
products
are
aligned
with
the
transition
to
a
low-carbon
economy.
The
assessment
includes
carbon
intensity,
fossil
fuel
involvement,
stranded
assets
exposure,
mitigation
strategies,
and
green
product
solutions.
Fossil
Fuel
Involvement
%
is
the
portfolio's
asset-weighted
percentage
exposure
to
fossil
fuels,
averaged
over
the
trailing
12
months.
Companies
with
fossil
fuel
involvement
are
defined
as
those
in
the
following
subindustries:
Thermal
Coal
Extraction,
Thermal
Coal
Power
Generation,
Oil
&
Gas
Production,
Oil
&
Gas
Power
Generation,
and
Oil
&
Gas
Products
&
Services.
To
receive
the
Low
Carbon
designation
a
fund
must
have
a
Carbon
Risk
Score
below
10
and
a
Fossil
Fuel
Involvement
%
of
less
than
7%
of
assets.
For
these
metrics
to
be
calculated,
at
least
67%
of
a
portfolio's
assets
must
be
covered
by
Sustainalytics
company
carbon-risk
research.
All
Morningstar
carbon
metrics
are
calculated
quarterly.
Amana
Income
Fund
was
rated

as
amended.
The
Trust
restricts
its
investments
to
those
acceptable
to
Muslims
by
investing
in
accordance
with
Islamic
principles.
Four
portfolio
series
have
been
created.
The
Income
Fund
was
first
authorized
to
sell
shares
of
beneficial
interest
to
the
public
on
June
23,
1986.
The
Growth
Fund
began
operations
on
February
3,
1994
.
The
Developing
World
Fund
began
operations
on
September
28,
2009
.
Institutional
Shares
of
Income,
Growth,
and
Developing
World
Funds
were
first
offered
September
25,
2013.
The
Participation
Fund
(both
Investor
and
Institutional
Shares)
began
operations
September
28,
2015
.
The
Participation
Fund
is
a
nondiversified
fund.
Each
Fund
is
an
investment
company
and
accordingly
follows
the
investment
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
of
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(FASB)
Accounting
Standard
Codification
Topic
946
“Financial
Services
–
Investment
Companies.”
Each
class
of
shares
of
a
Fund
represents
an
interest
in
the
same
portfolio
of
investments
of
the
Fund
and
has
in
all
respects
the
same
rights
and
obligations
as
each
other
class
of
the
Fund,
except
that
each
class
bears
its
own
class
expenses,
and
each
class
has
exclusive
voting
rights
on
matters
affecting
that
class.
Each
class
of
shares
may
be
subject
to
different
investment
minimums
and
other
conditions
of
eligibility
as
may
be
described
in
the
prospectus
for
the
particular
class
of
shares,
as
from
time
to
time
in
effect.
Income,
realized
and
unrealized
capital
gains
and
losses,
and
expenses
to
be
paid
by
a
Fund
and
not
allocated
to
a
particular
class
as
provided
below,
shall
be
allocated
to
each
class
on
the
basis
of
relative
net
assets.
Expenses
allocable
to
a
specific
class
are
expenses
specifically
incurred
by
or
for
such
class
including
the
following:
Distribution
fees;
Retirement
plan
custodial
fees;
and
Any
applicable
service
fees.
Net
investment
income
dividends
and
capital
gain
distributions
paid
by
the
Fund
on
each
class
of
its
shares
will
be
calculated
in
the
same
manner
on
the
same
day
and
at
the
same
time.
Commencing
in
the
year
ended
May
31,
2021,
the
Participation
Fund
utilizes
a
wholly-owned
subsidiary
to
achieve
its
investment
objective
(see
Note
3).
Investment
risks:
Income
,
Growth
,
Developing
World
,
and
Participation
Funds
:
The
value
of
the
shares
of
each
of
the
Funds
rises
and
falls
as
the
value
of
the
securities
in
which
the
Funds
invest
goes
up
and
down.
The
Funds
limit
the
securities
they
purchase
to
those
consistent
with
Islamic
principles.
This
limits
opportunities
and
may
affect
performance.
Each
of
the
Funds
may
invest
in
securities
that
are
not
traded
in
the
United
States.
Investments
in
the
securities
of
foreign
issuers
may
involve
risks
in
addition
to
those
normally
associated
with
investments
in
the
securities
of
US
issuers.
These
risks
include
currency
and
market
fluctuations,
and
political
or
social
instability.
The
risks
of
foreign
investing
are
generally
magnified
in
the
smaller
and
more
volatile
securities
markets
of
the
developing
world.
Growth
Fund
:
The
smaller
and
less
seasoned
companies
that
may
be
in
the
Growth
Fund
have
a
greater
risk
of
price
volatility.
Participation
Fund
:
While
the
Participation
Fund
does
not
invest
in
conventional
bonds,
risks
similar
to
those
of
conventional
fixed-
income
funds
apply.
These
include:
diversification
and
concentration
risk,
liquidity
risk,
interest
rate
risk,
credit
risk,
and
high-yield
risk.
The
Participation
Fund
also
includes
risks
specific
to
investments
in
Islamic
fixed-income
instruments.
The
structural
complexity
of
sukuk
,
along
with
the
weak
infrastructure
of
the
sukuk
market,
increases
risk.
As
compared
to
rights
of
conventional
bondholders,
holders
of
sukuk
may
have
limited
ability
to
pursue
legal
recourse
to
enforce
the
terms
of
the
sukuk
or
to
restructure
the
sukuk
in
order
to
seek
recovery
of
principal.
Sukuk
are
also
subject
to
the
risk
that
some
Islamic
scholars
may
deem
certain
sukuk
as
not
meeting
Islamic
investment
principles
subsequent
to
the
sukuk
being
issued.
The
Funds
may
invest
substantially
in
one
or
more
sectors,
which
can
increase
volatility
and
exposure
to
issuers
specific
to
a
particular
sector
or
industry.

Significant
Accounting
Policies
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
significant
accounting
policies,
in
conformity
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America,
which
are
consistently
followed
by
the
Funds
in
preparation
of
their
financial
statements.
Security
valuation:
Investments
in
securities
traded
on
a
national
securities
exchange
and
over-the-counter
securities
for
which
sale
prices
are
available
are
valued
at
that
price.
Securities
for
which
there
are
no
sales
are
valued
at
latest
bid
price.
Foreign
markets
may
close
before
the
time
as
of
which
the
Funds’
share
prices
are
determined.
Because
of
this,
events
occurring
after
the
close
and
before
the
determination
of
the
Funds’
share
prices
may
have
a
material
effect
on
the
values
of
some
or
all
of
the
Funds’
foreign
securities.
To
account
for
this,
the
Funds
may
use
outside
pricing
services
for
valuation
of
their
non-US
securities.
In
cases
in
which
there
is
not
a
readily
available
market
price,
a
fair
value
for
such
security
is
determined
in
good
faith
by
the
Adviser,
whom
the
Board
of
Trustees
has
designated
as
the
Funds’
valuation
designee
to
perform
fair
value
determinations
relating
to
all
Fund
investments.
Security
transactions
are
recorded
on
trade
date.
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
sales
of
securities
are
recorded
on
the
identified
cost
basis.
Sukuk
certificates
in
which
the
Participation
Fund
invests
are
valued
based
on
evaluated
prices
supplied
by
an
independent
pricing
service,
which
include
valuations
provided
by
market
makers
and
other
participants,
provided
that
there
is
sufficient
market
activity
Notes
To
Financial
Statements
(continued)
on
which
the
pricing
service
can
base
such
valuations.
Where
market
activity
is
insufficient
for
making
such
determinations,
the
independent
pricing
service
uses
proprietary
valuation
methodologies
and
may
consider
a
variety
of
factors,
such
as
yield
curves,
credit
spreads,
estimated
default
rates,
anticipated
market
interest
rate
volatility,
coupon
rates,
and
other
factors
in
order
to
calculate
the
security’s
fair
value.
Foreign
currency:
Investment
securities
and
other
assets
and
liabilities
denominated
in
foreign
currencies
are
translated
into
US
dollar
amounts
at
the
date
of
valuation.
Purchases
and
sales
of
investment
securities
and
income
and
expense
items
denominated
in
foreign
currencies
are
translated
into
US
dollar
amounts
on
the
respective
dates
of
such
transactions.
The
Funds
do
not
isolate
that
portion
of
the
results
of
operations
resulting
from
changes
in
foreign
exchange
rates
on
investments
from
the
fluctuations
arising
from
changes
in
market
prices
of
securities
held.
Such
fluctuations
are
included
with
the
net
realized
and
unrealized
gain
or
loss
from
investments.
Reported
net
realized
foreign
exchange
gains
or
losses
arise
from
sales
of
foreign
currencies,
currency
gains
or
losses
realized
between
the
trade
and
settlement
dates
on
securities
transactions,
and
the
difference
between
the
amounts
of
dividends,
interest,
and
foreign
withholding
taxes
recorded
on
the
Funds’
books
and
the
US
dollar
equivalent
of
the
amounts
actually
received
or
paid.
Net
unrealized
foreign
exchange
gains
and
losses
arise
from
changes
in
the
fair
values
of
assets
and
liabilities,
other
than
investments
in
securities
at
fiscal
period
end,
resulting
from
changes
in
exchange
rates.
Share
valuation:
Each
Fund
computes
the
share
price
of
each
share
class
by
dividing
the
net
assets
attributable
to
each
share
class
by
the
outstanding
shares
of
that
class.
Each
share
class
represents
an
interest
in
the
same
investment
portfolio.
Each
share
class
is
identical
in
all
respects
except
that
each
class
bears
its
own
class
expenses,
and
each
class
has
exclusive
voting
rights
on
matters
affecting
that
class.
As
a
result
of
the
differences
in
the
expenses
borne
by
each
share
class,
the
share
price
and
distributions
will
vary
among
a
Fund’s
share
classes.
The
Funds’
shares
are
not
priced
or
traded
on
days
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
is
closed.
The
NAV
is
both
the
offering
and
redemption
price
per
share.

Fair
value
measurements:
Accounting
Standards
Codification
(ASC)
820
establishes
a
three-
tier
framework
for
measuring
fair
value
based
on
a
hierarchy
of
inputs.
The
hierarchy
distinguishes
between
market
data
obtained
from
independent
sources
(observable
inputs)
and
the
Funds’
own
market
assumptions
(unobservable
inputs).
These
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
the
Funds’
investments
and
are
summarized
below.
Level
1
-
Unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
assets
or
liabilities
that
the
Trust
has
the
ability
to
access.
Level
2
-
Observable
inputs
other
than
quoted
prices
in
Level
1
that
are
observable
for
the
asset
or
liability,
either
directly
or
indirectly.
These
inputs
may
include
quoted
prices
for
the
identical
instrument
on
an
inactive
market,
prices
for
similar
instruments,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risk,
yield
curves,
default
rates,
and
similar
data.
Level
3
−
Unobservable
inputs
for
the
asset
or
liability,
to
the
extent
relevant
observable
inputs
are
not
available,
representing
the
Trust’s
own
assumptions
about
the
assumptions
a
market
participant
would
use
in
valuing
the
asset
or
liability,
and
would
be
based
on
the
best
information
available.
The
availability
of
observable
inputs
can
vary
from
security
to
security
and
is
affected
by
a
wide
variety
of
factors,
including,
for
example,
the
type
of
security,
whether
the
security
is
new
and
not
yet
established
in
the
marketplace,
the
liquidity
of
markets,
and
other
characteristics
particular
to
the
security.
To
the
extent
that
valuation
is
based
on
models
or
inputs
that
are
less
observable
or
unobservable
in
the
market,
the
determination
of
fair
value
requires
more
judgment.
Accordingly,
the
degree
of
judgment
exercised
in
determining
fair
value
is
greatest
for
instruments
categorized
in
Level
3.
The
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value
may
fall
into
different
levels
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
In
such
cases,
for
disclosure
purposes,
the
level
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy
within
which
the
fair
value
measurement
falls
in
its
entirety
is
determined
based
on
the
lowest
level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
measurement
in
its
entirety.
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities.
Investment
concentration:
The
fundamental
policies
of
the
Funds
prohibit
earning
interest,
in
accordance
with
Islamic
principles.
Consequently,
cash
is
held
in
non-interest-bearing
deposits
with
the
Funds’
custodian
or
other
banks.
“Other
assets
(net
of
liabilities)”
in
the
Funds’
Schedules
of
Investments
primarily
represents
cash
on
deposit
with
the
custodian.
Cash
on
deposit
will
vary
widely
over
time.
Accounting
Standards
Codification
(“ASC”)
825,
“
Financial
Instruments,
”
identifies
these
items
as
a
concentration
of
credit
risk.
The
risk
is
managed
by
careful
financial
analysis
and
review
of
the
custodian’s
operations,
resources,
and
protections
available
to
the
Trust.
This
process
includes
evaluation
of
other
financial
institutions
providing
investment
company
custody
services.
ReFlow
Liquidity
Program:
The
Funds
may
participate
in
the
ReFlow
Fund,
LLC
("ReFlow")
liquidity
program,
which
is
designed
to
provide
an
alternative
liquidity
source
on
days
when
redemptions
of
Fund
shares
exceed
purchases.
Under
the
program,
ReFlow
is
available
to
provide
cash
to
the
Funds
to
meet
all,
or
a
portion,
of
daily
net
shareowner
redemptions.
Following
purchases
of
Fund
shares,
ReFlow
then
generally
redeems
those
shares
when
the
Fund
experiences
net
sales,
at
the
end
of
a
maximum
holding
period
determined
by
ReFlow
(currently
8
days)
or
at
other
times
at
ReFlow's
discretion.
For
use
of
the
ReFlow
service,
a
participating
Fund
pays
a
fee
to
ReFlow
each
time
it
purchases
Fund
shares,
calculated
by
applying
to
the
purchase
amount
a
fee
rate
determined
through
an
automated
daily
"Dutch
auction"
among
other
participating
mutual
funds
seeking
liquidity
that
day.
The
current
minimum
fee
rate
is
0.14%
of
the
value
of
the
Fund
shares
purchased
by
ReFlow,
although
the
Fund
may
submit
a
bid
at
a
higher
fee
rate
if
it
determines
that
doing
so
is
in
the
best
interest
of
Fund
shareowners.
In
accordance
with
federal
securities
laws,
ReFlow
is
prohibited
from
acquiring
more
than
3%
of
the
outstanding
voting
securities
of
a
Fund.
ReFlow
will
periodically
redeem
its
entire
share
position
in
the
Fund
and
request
that
such
redemption
be
met
in
kind
in
accordance
with
the
Funds'
in-kind
redemption
policies.
There
is
no
assurance
that
ReFlow
will
have
sufficient
funds
available
to
meet
the
Funds’
liquidity
needs
on
a
particular
day.
Federal
income
taxes:
Each
Fund
intends
to
comply
with
the
requirements
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
necessary
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
and
to
make
the
requisite
distributions
of
income
and
capital
gains
to
its
shareowners
sufficient
to
relieve
it
from
all
or
substantially
all
federal
income
taxes.
Therefore,
no
federal
income
tax
provision
is
required.
The
Funds
recognize
the
tax
benefits
of
uncertain
tax
positions
only
where
the
position
is
“more
likely
than
not”
to
be
sustained
assuming
examination
by
tax
authorities.
Management
has
analyzed
the
Funds’
tax
positions
and
has
concluded
that
no
liability
for
unrecognized
tax
benefits
should
be
recorded
related
to
uncertain
tax
positions
taken
on
returns
filed
for
open
tax
years
(2021
−
2023)
or
expected
to
be
taken
in
the
Funds’
2024
tax
returns.
The
Funds
identify
their
major
tax
jurisdiction
as
US
federal
and
foreign
jurisdictions
where
the
Funds
make
significant
investments;
however,
the
Funds
are
not
aware
of
any
tax
positions
for
which
it
is
reasonably
possible
that
the
total
amounts
of
unrecognized
tax
benefits
will
change
materially
in
the
next
12
months.

Reclassification
of
capital
accounts:
Accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
require
that
certain
components
of
net
assets
relating
to
permanent
differences
be
reclassified
between
financial
and
tax
reporting.
These
reclassifications
are
as
of
the
fiscal
year
ended
May
31,
2024
,
and
have
no
effect
on
net
assets
or
NAV
per
share.
The
Income
and
Developing
World
Funds
had
no
reclassification
of
capital
accounts.
Distributions
to
shareowners:
For
the
Amana
Participation
Fund
,
dividends
to
shareowners
from
net
investment
income
are
paid
daily
and
distributed
on
the
last
business
day
of
each
month.
For
the
Amana
Income
Fund
,
Amana
Growth
Fund
,
and
Amana
Developing
World
Fund
,
dividends
to
shareowners
from
net
investment
income,
if
any,
are
paid
in
May
and
December.
As
a
result
of
their
investment
strategies,
the
Growth
and
Developing
World
Funds
do
not
expect
to
pay
income
dividends.
Distributions
of
capital
gains,
if
any,
are
made
at
least
annually,
and
as
required
to
comply
with
federal
excise
tax
requirements.
Distributions
to
shareowners
are
determined
in
accordance
with
income
tax
regulations
and
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Dividends
are
paid
in
shares
of
the
Funds,
at
the
net
asset
value
on
the
payable
date.
Shareowners
may
elect
to
take
distributions
if
they
total
$10
or
more
in
cash.
Use
of
estimates:
The
preparation
of
financial
statements
in
conformity
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
requires
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities
and
disclosure
of
contingent
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
date
of
the
financial
statements
and
the
reported
amounts
of
increases
and
decreases
in
net
assets
during
the
reporting
period.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.
Foreign
taxes:
Withholding
taxes
on
foreign
dividends
are
paid
(a
portion
of
which
may
be
reclaimable)
or
provided
for
in
accordance
with
the
applicable
country’s
tax
rules
and
rates
and
are
disclosed
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
Withholding
tax
reclaims
are
filed
in
certain
countries
to
recover
a
portion
of
the
amounts
previously
withheld.
The
Funds
record
a
reclaim
receivable
based
on
a
number
of
factors,
including
a
jurisdiction’s
legal
obligation
to
pay
reclaims
as
well
as
payment
history
and
market
convention.

Statement
Regarding

for
Approval
of
Investment
Advisory
Contract.
The
Funds’
Investment
Advisory
Contract
is
included
as
part
of
the
Financial
Statements
filed
under
Item
7
of
this
form.
Renewal
of
Investment
Advisory
Contract
During
their
meeting
of
September
16,
2024,
the
Trustees
of
Amana
Mutual
Funds
Trust
(the
“Board”
or
“Trustees”),
including
the
Independent
Trustees,
discussed
the
continuance
of
the
Investment
Advisory
and
Administrative
Services
Agreement
between
the
Trust,
on
behalf
of
each
Fund,
and
Saturna
Capital
Corporation
(“Saturna”).
The
Trustees
also
considered
Saturna’s
management
of
a
wholly
owned
subsidiary
of
Amana
Participation
Fund
that
invests
in
the
same
securities
and
assets
in
which
the
Fund
invests.
In
evaluating
the
agreements,
the
Board,
including
the
Independent
Trustees,
considered
the
factors
it
deemed
relevant,
including
the
nature,
quality
and
extent
of
services
provided,
the
performance
of
each
Fund,
expenses
and
fees,
the
profitability
of
Saturna,
the
potential
for
economies
of
scale
that
may
be
shared
with
each
Fund
and
its
shareholders
as
each
Fund’s
assets
grow,
and
any
other
benefits
derived
by
Saturna
from
its
relationship
with
the
Funds.
In
their
deliberations,
the
Trustees
did
not
identify
any
single
factor
which
alone
was
responsible
for
the
decision
to
approve
the
agreements,
and
each
Trustee
may
have
given
different
weights
to
different
factors,
and,
thus,
each
Trustee
may
have
had
a
different
basis
for
his
decision.
The
Trustees
considered
Saturna’s
specific
responsibilities
in
all
aspects
of
day-to-day
management
of
the
Funds
as
well
as
the
qualifications,
experience
and
responsibilities
of
the
Funds’
portfolio
managers
and
other
key
personnel
at
Saturna.
The
Trustees
considered
that
the
Funds
offer
a
full
range
of
high-quality
investor
services,
including
unique
services
for
Islamic
investors.
The
Trustees
discussed
Saturna’s
experience,
ability,
and
commitment
to
quality
service
through
performing
internally
such
functions
as
shareowner
servicing,
administration,
retirement
plans,
accounting,
marketing,
and
distribution
–
all
in
addition
to
investment
management.
The
Trustees
took
into
consideration
Saturna’s
continued
avoidance
of
significant
operational
and
regulatory
compliance
problems,
plus
its
continued
investments
in
infrastructure,
information
management
systems,
personnel,
training,
compliance,
and
investor
education
materials,
all
designed
to
meet
investor
needs
with
high
quality
services.
They
recognized
Saturna’s
efforts
to
recruit
and
retain
qualified,
experienced,
and
specialized
staff
and
improve
the
capital
base
on
which
Saturna
operates,
which
the
Trustees
believe
is
important
to
the
long-
term
success
of
the
Funds.
The
Trustees
recognized
Saturna’s
focus
on
investors
and
its
efforts
to
avoid
conflicts
of
interest.
The
Trustees
considered
the
investment
performance
of
each
Fund
over
time,
including
comparative
information
from
Morningstar,
Inc.
(“Morningstar”),
which
provides
independent
analysis
of
mutual
fund
data
and,
among
other
things,
rank
mutual
fund
performance
within
categories
comprised
of
similarly
managed
funds.
The
Trustees
considered
and
discussed
each
Fund’s
performance
relative
to
the
Fund’s
Morningstar
category
for
the
one-,
three-,
five-,
ten-,
and
fifteen-year
periods,
as
applicable,
and
the
related
Morningstar
rankings
(one
through
five
stars)
for
the
three-,
five-,
and
ten-year
periods,
as
applicable,
ended
as
of
July
31,
2024.
The
Trustees
also
noted
the
high
ratings
for
sustainability
assigned
to
the
Amana
Growth
Fund
and
Amana
Developing
World
Fund
by
Morningstar.
The
Trustees
considered
the
short-,
medium-,
and
long-term
investment
performance
of
Amana
Income
Fund,
Amana
Growth
Fund,
and
Amana
Developing
World
Fund,
and
the
short-term
and
medium-term
performance
of
Amana
Participation
Fund,
each
relative
to
their
Morningstar
categories,
and
noted
that
the
Funds
were
managed
for
the
long
term.
The
Trustees
noted
that
the
short-
term
performance
of
Amana
Income
Fund
was
in
the
first
quartile
for
its
Morningstar
category
for
the
one-year
period,
medium-term
performance
was
in
the
third
quartile
for
the
three-
and
five-year
periods
and
long-term
performance
was
in
the
fourth
and
third
quartiles,
respectively,
for
the
ten-
and
fifteen-year
periods.
The
Trustees
noted
that
the
short-,
medium-,
and
long-term
investment
performance
of
Amana
Growth
Fund
was
in
the
first
quartile
for
its
Morningstar
category
for
the
one-,
three-,
five-,
ten-
and
fifteen-year
periods.
The
Trustees
noted
that
both
the
short-
and
medium-term
performance
of
the
Amana
Developing
World
Fund
was
in
the
first
quartile
for
its
Morningstar
category
for
the
one-,
three-
and
five-year
periods,
and
that
the
Fund’s
long-term
performance
was
in
the
fourth
quartile
for
the
ten-year
period.
The
Trustees
noted
that
the
Amana
Participation
Fund’s
performance
was
in
the
first
quartile
for
its
Morningstar
category
for
the
one-,
three-
and
five-
year
periods.
The
Trustees
noted
the
risk-
averse
investment
style
used
by
Saturna
to
manage
the
Funds
and
considered
other
factors
which
can
affect
a
Fund’s
performance
relative
to
the
Fund’s
broader
Morningstar
categories.
In
evaluating
such
performance
data,
the
Trustees
noted
that
Islamic
investment
restrictions
to
which
the
Funds
adhere
increase
Saturna’s
research
expenses
and
obligations
and
impose
constraints
on
Saturna’s
selection
of
the
Funds’
portfolio
investments
that
impact
performance.
The
Trustees
found
that
Saturna
continued
to
manage
the
Funds
in
a
manner
that
is
designed
to
be
acceptable
to
Islamic
investors
and
that
the
risk
averse
approach
also
is
attractive
non-Islamic
long-term
investors.
The
Trustees
noted
Saturna’s
decades
of
dedicated
service
provided
to
Amana
Mutual
Fund
Trust
and
its
shareowners.
Recognizing
the
investment
mandates
of
the
Funds,
the
Trustees
also
considered
the
performance
of
the
Funds
as
compared
to
a
more
limited
group
of
other
funds
with
similar
investment
objectives
and
strategies,
including
faith-based
managed
funds,
and
with
a
range
of
asset
sizes.
The
Trustees
considered
these
comparative
performance
data,
along
with
the
comparative
data
published
by
Morningstar,
as
well
as
each
Fund’s
performance
relative
to
its
benchmark,
to
evaluate
each
Fund’s
performance
over
near-term
and
long-term
time
periods,
as
applicable.
When
evaluating
the
Funds’
performance
record,
the
Board
noted
that
relative
performance
comparisons,
especially
over
limited
periods
of
time,
is
only
one
of
the
factors
that
it
deems
relevant
to
its
consideration
of
each
Fund’s
agreement.
The
Board
noted
that,
after
considering
all
relevant
factors,
it
may
be
appropriate
to
approve
the
continuation
of
the
agreement
notwithstanding
a
Fund’s
underperformance
relative
to
its
Morningstar
peer
group
during
certain
periods.
The
Trustees
also
reviewed
the
fees
and
expenses
of
the
Funds
and
considered
the
components
of
each
Fund’s
operating
expenses.
The
Trustees
noted
that
the
net
expense
ratios
for
both
share
classes
of
Amana
Income
Fund
were
above
their
respective
Morningstar
category
average
expense
ratios,
the
net
expense
ratio
for
the
Amana
Growth
Fund
Institutional
share
class
was
below
and
the
Investor
share
class
was
above
the
Morningstar
category
average
expense
ratios,
and
the
net
expense
ratios
for
both
share
classes
of
Developing
World
Fund
and
Amana
Renewal
of
Investment
Advisory
Contract
(continued)
Participation
Fund
were
below
the
Morningstar
category
average
expense
ratios.
The
Trustees
also
noted
that,
effective
in
2019,
Saturna
agreed
to
reduce
the
breakpoints
in
the
investment
advisory
fee
for
Amana
Income
Fund,
Amana
Growth
Fund,
and
Amana
Developing
World
Fund,
by
five
basis
points
at
each
asset
level,
and
effective
December
1,
2020,
Saturna
had
agreed
to
a
further
reduction
in
the
advisory
fee
breakpoints
for
these
Funds
at
higher
asset
levels
in
excess
of
$1
billion.
The
Trustees
noted
that
these
actions
were
expected
to
lower
the
Funds’
advisory
fees
at
higher
asset
levels.
In
light
of
the
services
provided
by
Saturna,
the
Trustees
found
each
Fund’s
advisory
fee
structure
and
expense
ratios
to
be
reasonable
given
the
size
of
each
Fund,
the
services
provided,
and
the
expenses
incurred
by
the
adviser.
They
noted
the
significant
sponsorship
of
the
Funds
by
Saturna
evidenced,
in
part,
by
the
amount
of
fees
and
expenses
paid
by
Saturna
out
of
its
own
resources
to
brokerage
platforms
and
similar
unaffiliated
intermediaries.
The
Trustees
noted
that
the
expenses
imposed
by
intermediaries
are
often
borne
by
funds
and
the
Trustees
appreciated
that
Saturna’s
efforts
help
make
the
Funds
more
widely
available
and
otherwise
less
expensive
had
the
Funds
borne
these
expenses.
The
Trustees
recognized
that
the
competitive
performance
record
of
Amana
Income
Fund
and
Amana
Growth
Fund
over
the
long
term
had
likely
contributed
to
their
asset
size,
which
over
time
has
resulted
in
lower
expense
ratios
due
to
overall
costs
being
spread
over
a
larger
asset
base.
The
Trustees
reviewed
Saturna’s
financial
information
and
discussed
the
issue
of
Saturna’s
profitability
related
to
its
management
and
administration
of
the
Funds.
They
discussed
the
reasonableness
of
Saturna’s
profitability
with
respect
to
each
of
the
Funds
as
part
of
their
evaluation
of
whether
the
advisory
fees
bear
a
reasonable
relationship
to
the
mix
of
services
provided
by
Saturna,
including
the
nature,
extent,
and
quality
of
such
services.
The
Trustees
considered
the
extent
to
which
advisory
fees
paid
to
Saturna
reflect
economies
of
scale.
The
Trustees
considered
the
fact
that
fee
breakpoints
lower
the
operating
expenses
and
expense
ratios
of
the
Funds
as
assets
grow
and
demonstrate
the
benefits
of
economies
of
scale
are
being
shared
with
shareowners.
In
this
connection,
the
Board
noted
that
the
investment
advisory
fee
rate
schedules
for
each
Fund
other
than
the
Amana
Participation
Fund
include
breakpoints
that
reduce
the
fee
rate
as
Fund
assets
increase
above
certain
levels,
and
that
Saturna
had
agreed,
in
2019
and
2020,
to
reduce
the
breakpoints
in
the
investment
advisory
fee
for
Amana
Income
Fund,
Amana
Growth
Fund
and
Amana
Developing
World
Fund
as
described
above.
With
respect
to
the
Amana
Participation
Fund,
the
Board
determined
that
the
investment
advisory
fees
are
reasonable
and
appropriate
and
that
breakpoints
in
the
fee
schedule
are
unnecessary
based
on
the
current
level
of
the
Fund’s
assets
and
the
level
of
its
actual
advisory
fee
as
compared
to
peers.
The
Trustees
considered
and
compared
the
fees
charged
by
Saturna
to
other
types
of
advisory
accounts
for
which
Saturna
serves
as
an
investment
adviser,
including
non-mutual
fund
advisory
clients
and
individual
advisory
clients.
The
Trustees
noted
the
significant
differences
between
the
full
range
of
services
Saturna
provides
to
the
Funds,
including
investment
advisory
and
administrative
services,
transfer
agency
services,
and
other
services,
as
compared
to
the
investment
advisory
services
provided
to
the
other
advisory
accounts.
The
Trustees
also
considered
how
the
various
services
provided
to
those
other
accounts,
which
include
Saturna’s
investment
management,
research,
and
customer
service
operations
performed
for
those
accounts,
benefit
the
Funds.
The
Trustees
considered
potential
benefits
to
Saturna
and
to
its
other
businesses
from
acting
as
investment
adviser
for
the
Funds,
but
also
noted
that
Saturna’s
other
business
lines
also
potentially
benefit
the
Funds.
The
Trustees
also
noted
that
there
were
no
soft
dollar
arrangements
with
respect
to
trading
in
the
Funds’
portfolios
and
that
Saturna’s
affiliated
broker,
Saturna
Brokerage
Services,
voluntarily
waives
brokerage
commissions
for
executing
each
Fund’s
portfolio
transactions,
resulting
in
lower
transaction
costs
for
the
Funds.
The
Trustees
concluded
that
the
fees
paid
by
each
Fund
to
Saturna
were,
from
an
arm’s-length
bargaining
perspective,
reasonable
and
in
the
best
interest
of
the
Fund
and
its
shareowners
in
light
of
the
services
provided,
comparative
performance,
expense
and
advisory
fee
information,
costs
of
services
provided,
profits
to
be
realized,
and
benefits
derived
or
to
be
derived
by
Saturna
from
its
relationship
with
the
Funds.
Following
this
discussion,
the
Trustees
unanimously
agreed,
based
on
their
business
judgment,
to
renew
the
Investment
Advisory
and
Administrative
Services
Agreements
with
respect
to
Amana
Income
Fund,
Amana
Growth
Fund,
Amana
Developing
World
Fund,
and
Amana
Participation
Fund.
