Dear Fellow Shareholders:
Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund’s 27th Anniversary
The Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund celebrated its 27th Anniversary last summer. It began operations on August 12, 1988.
Performance Highlights (March 31, 2016)
The annualized average total returns of the Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund and S&P 500 Index for the 1-year, 5-year, and 10-year periods through March 31, 2016 were:
| | Average Annual Total Returns | |
| | 1 Year | 5 Year | 10 Year | |
| Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund | -7.16% | 5.97% | 9.37% | |
| The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index(1) | 1.78% | 11.58% | 7.01% | |
(1) | The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (“S&P”) is a capitalization-weighted index, representing the aggregate market value of the common equity of 500 stocks primarily traded on the New York Stock Exchange. Returns shown include the reinvestment of all dividends. Past performance is not predictive of future performance. The table does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. |

Investment Strategy
We believe that many stocks are currently selling at attractive valuations based on historical valuation measures. One of these valuation measures is a company’s price earnings ratio (the “PE ratio”) relative to inflation, interest rates and the economic outlook. Another valuation measure is a company’s PE ratio relative to its forecasted earnings growth rate (the “PEG ratio”). Many stocks of high quality companies are currently selling at PE ratios and PEG ratios below their average historical ranges relative to inflation, interest rates and the economic outlook.
The U.S. Economy
The U.S. economic recovery that started in mid-2009 has continued so far in 2016. The U.S. economic recovery has been affected by a number of secular factors that are continuing to alter the pace and composition of growth. The U.S. economy in 2016 has been affected by greater prudence and less speculation in lending, low inflation and a higher savings rate. Although the U.S. economy is growing, it is growing at a lower than ideal rate. Currently, unemployment is around 5.0 %. U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) increased 2.4% in 2015, 2.4% in 2014, 1.5% in 2013 and 2.3% in 2012. GDP increased at an estimated inflation-adjusted annual rate of 0.5% in the quarter ended March 31, 2016. GDP is estimated to increase at an inflation-adjusted annual rate of 1.4% in the quarter ended June 30, 2016. GDP is forecast to increase 1.6% for the year ended December 31, 2016. For 2016, the outlook remains for slower than ideal growth, accompanied by somewhat higher than normal unemployment, low inflation and low interest rates.
U.S. inflation numbers have been helped in the last few years by global competition and technology innovations that are helping to lower production and distribution costs. Inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index, increased 0.1% in 2015, 1.6% in 2014, 1.5% in 2013 and 2.1% in 2012. U.S. inflation increased at a 1.1% rate in the first quarter of 2016. U.S. inflation is estimated to increase at a 0.9% rate in the quarter ending June 30, 2016. U.S. inflation is forecast to increase 1.3% for the year ended December 31, 2016.
There are some current and potential economic and investment negatives at the present time: (1) worldwide economic growth continues at a slower than ideal rate; (2) growth in Brazil, Japan and Russia has been weak; (3) the U.S. economy grew at a slower than expected rate in the last two quarters; (4) although continuing to improve, unemployment at 5.0% is higher than ideal; (5) mortgage rates are low, but mortgage credit is still somewhat tight; (6) capital spending has been weak; (7) the manufacturing sector remains mixed; (8) the recent payroll report was weaker than expected; (9) a widening disparity between higher and lower income levels; (10) productivity remains weak; (11) the possibility of Great Britain leaving the European Union is causing some uncertainty; and (12) problems with the Middle East and other parts of the world.
Some current and potential economic and investment positives are: (1) monetary policy and financial conditions generally are very supportive of growth; (2) the U.S. economy has grown in the last twenty-six quarters and growth should continue in 2016; (3) the rise in residential property values and in stock market prices has added to net worth and households have strengthened their balance sheets; (4) unemployment is currently at 5.0%, the lowest in more than seven years and the labor market continues to tighten; (5) although the Federal Reserve probably will be raising interest rates sometime in the next six months, interest rates will still be very low by historical standards; (6) gasoline prices remain low; (7) there has been an increase in the willingness of companies to commit capital as evidenced by the increase in merger and acquisition activity; (8) businesses have been able to use the credit markets to strengthen their balance sheets; (9) many companies are repurchasing their shares; (10) current valuations of many stocks are below the midpoint of the historical average taking into consideration inflation and interest rates; (11) the U.S. economy currently has better fundamentals than the economies of most other industrialized countries; (12) many central banks worldwide continue with monetary stimulus to boost growth; and (13) worldwide economic growth does not appear to be strong enough to lead to a significant rise in global inflationary pressures.
The World Economy
The global economic recovery that started in mid-2009 is continuing in 2016, although at a low rate. The world economy is forecast to increase 2.5% in 2016 after increasing 2.8% in 2015, 2.7% in 2014, 3.0% in 2013 and 2.7% in 2012.
The Eurozone’s GDP is forecast to increase 1.7% in 2016, after increasing 1.5% in 2015, 0.9% in 2014, and decreasing -0.4% in 2013 and -0.5% in 2012. The United Kingdom’s GDP is forecast to increase 1.7% in 2016 after increasing 2.3% in 2015, 2.8% in 2014, 1.7% in 2013 and 0.3% in 2012.
Among larger industrialized economies, Canada’s GDP is forecast to increase 1.2% in 2016 after increasing 1.9% in 2015, 2.5% in 2014, 2.0% in 2013 and 1.8% in 2012. Japan’s GDP is forecast to be 0.0% in 2016 after increasing 0.5% in 2015, decreasing -0.1% in 2014, and increasing 1.5% in 2013 and 1.9% in 2012. Korea’s GDP is forecast to increase 2.6% in 2016 after increasing 2.6% in 2015, 3.3% in 2014, 3.0% in 2013 and 2.0% in 2012.
The biggest developing economies are many times referred to as the “BRIC” economy, which is short for Brazil, Russia, India, and China. China currently has the second strongest growth among “developing economies.” It is also currently the world’s second fastest growing major economy. China’s population is approximately 18% of the world’s total population of approximately 7.3 billion. In the second quarter of 2010, China overtook Japan and became the world’s second largest economy after the U.S. Many economists believe that China has a particularly good long-term outlook. Near term, however, there have been cross currents in China’s economic outlook and growth has been slowing, although economic growth is at a high rate. China’s GDP is forecast to increase 6.4% in 2016 after increasing 6.9% in 2015, 7.4% in 2014, 7.1% in 2013 and 7.7% in 2012.
India’s population is approximately 17% of the world’s population. India currently has the fastest growth among “developing economies” and it currently is the world’s fastest growing major economy. India’s GDP is forecast to increase 7.5% in 2016 after increasing 7.2 % in 2015, 6.9% in 2014, 4.6% in 2013 and 5.0% in 2012.
Brazil is Latin America’s biggest economy. GDP is forecast to decrease -4.0% in 2016, after decreasing -3.9% in 2015, and increasing 0.1% in 2014, 2.3% in 2013 and 0.9% in 2012. Russia’s GDP is forecast to decrease -0.6% in 2016 after decreasing -3.7% in 2015, and increasing 0.7% in 2014, 1.0% in 2013 and 3.4% in 2012.
Opportunistic Investing in Companies of Various Sizes and Diversified Among Various Industries
The Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund usually invests in companies of various sizes as classified by their market capitalizations. A company’s market capitalization is calculated by taking the number of shares the company has outstanding multiplied by its current market price. Other considerations in selecting companies for the Fund include revenue growth rates, product innovations, financial strength, management’s knowledge and experience, plus the overall economic and geopolitical environments and interest rates. The Fund’s investments are diversified among various industries.
The long-term strategy of the Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund is to emphasize investment in worldwide “blue chip” growth companies. These companies are defined as companies with a minimum market capitalization of U.S. $1 billion. In the long-term, these companies build value as their earnings grow. This growth in value should ultimately be recognized in higher stock prices for these companies.

Low Long-Term Interest Rates by Historical Standards are a Significant Positive for Stock Valuations
Long-term interest rates remain near historically low levels. Low long-term interest rates usually result in higher stock valuations for many reasons including:
| (1) | Long-term borrowing costs of corporations are lower resulting in higher business confidence and profits. |
| | |
| (2) | Long-term borrowing costs of individuals are lower which increases consumer confidence and spending. |
| | |
| (3) | A company’s stock is usually valued by placing a present value on that company’s future stream of earnings and dividends. The present value is higher when interest and inflation rates are low. |

The Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund and the First American Treasury Obligations Fund are No-Load: No front-end sales commissions or deferred sales charges (“loads”) are charged. Some mutual funds impose these marketing charges that are ultimately paid by the shareholder. These marketing charges are either: (1) a front-end fee or “load” in which up to 5% of a shareholder’s assets are deducted from the original investment (some funds even charge a fee when a shareholder reinvests capital gains or dividends); or (2) a back-end penalty fee or “load” which is typically deducted from a shareholder’s account if a shareholder redeems within five years of the original investment. These fees reduce a shareholder’s return. The Reynolds Blue Chip Fund and the First American Treasury Obligations Fund are No-Load as they do not have these extra charges.
We appreciate your continued confidence in the Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund and would like to welcome our new shareholders. We look forward to strong results in the future.
Sincerely,
Frederick L. Reynolds
President

EXPENSE EXAMPLE
(Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund, you do not incur (except as described below) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvested dividends, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees, but do incur ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from October 1, 2015 through March 31, 2016.
Actual Expenses
The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values based on actual returns 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.
In addition to the costs highlighted and described below, the only Fund transaction costs you might currently incur would be wire fees ($15 per wire), if you choose to have proceeds from a redemption wired to your bank account instead of receiving a check. Additionally, U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC charges an annual processing fee ($15) if you maintain an IRA account with the Fund. To determine your total costs of investing in the Fund, you would need to add any applicable wire or IRA processing fees you’ve incurred during the period to the costs provided in the example below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption or exchange fees. 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. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| Beginning Account | Ending Account | Expenses Paid During |
| Value 10/01/15 | Value 3/31/16 | Period* 10/01/15-3/31/16 |
Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund Actual | $1,000.00 | $ 987.20 | $8.99 |
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | $1,000.00 | $1,015.95 | $9.12 |
* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio of 1.81% multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 183/366 (to reflect the one-half year period between October 1, 2015 and March 31, 2016). |

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2016 (Unaudited)
(1) | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — |
| |
| The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Reynolds Funds, Inc. (the “Company”), which is registered as a diversified, open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended. This Company consists of one fund: the Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund (the “Fund”). The Company was incorporated under the laws of Maryland on April 28, 1988. |
| |
| The investment objective of the Fund is to produce long-term growth of capital by investing in a diversified portfolio of common stocks issued by well-established growth companies commonly referred to as “blue chip” companies, as defined in the prospectus. |
| |
| The following is a summary of the Fund’s pricing procedures. It is intended to be a general discussion and may not necessarily reflect all pricing procedures followed by the Fund. |
| |
| (a) Each security, excluding short-term investments, is valued at the last sale price reported by the principal security exchange on which the issue is traded (other than The NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc., referred to as “NASDAQ”), or if no sale is reported, the latest bid price. Securities which are traded on NASDAQ under one of its three listing tiers, NASDAQ Global Market, NASDAQ Global Select Market and NASDAQ Capital Market, are valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price, or if no sale is reported, the latest bid price. Short-term investments with maturities of 60 days or less may be valued on an amortized cost basis to the extent it is equivalent to fair value, which involves valuing an instrument at its cost and thereafter assuming |

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

(1) | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — (Continued) |
| |
| a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the impact of fluctuating rates on the fair value of the instrument. Amortized cost will not be used if its use would be inappropriate due to credit or other impairments of the issuer. Securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by the investment adviser under the supervision of the Board of Directors. The fair value of a security is the amount which the Fund might receive upon a current sale. The fair value of a security may differ from the last quoted price and the Fund may not be able to sell a security at the fair value. Market quotations may not be available, for example, if trading in particular securities was halted during the day and not resumed prior to the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange. |
| |
| Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. |
| |
| In determining fair value, the Fund uses various valuation approaches. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by generally requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. |
| The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows: |
| Level 1— | Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. |
| | |
| Level 2— | Valuations based on quoted prices for similar securities or in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. |
| | |
| Level 3— | Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. |
| The following table summarizes the Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2016, based on the inputs used to value them: |
| Valuation Inputs | Investments in Securities |
| Level 1—Common Stock | | $ | 85,270,474 | |
| REITs | | | 1,358,775 | |
| Total Level 1 | | | 86,629,249 | |
| Level 2—None | | | — | |
| Level 3—None | | | — | |
| Total | | $ | 86,629,249 | * |
| * | Please refer to the Schedule of Investments to view common stocks and REITS segregated by industry type. |
| It is the Fund’s policy to recognize transfers between levels at the end of the reporting period. For the six months ended March 31, 2016, there were no transfers between levels. The Fund did not invest in any Level 3 securities during the period. |
| |
| (b) Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis for financial reporting purposes. Net realized gains and losses on sales of securities are computed on the highest amortized cost basis. |
| |
| (c) The Fund records dividend income on the ex-dividend date and interest income on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and regulations. |

| |
| (d) GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year ended September 30, 2015, the following table shows the reclassifications made: |
| Accumulated Net | Accumulated Undistributed Net | | |
| Investment Loss | Realized Gain on Investments | Capital Stock | |
| $235,642 | $(8,833,248) | $8,597,606 | |
| (e) 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. |
| |
| (f) No provision has been made for Federal income taxes since the Fund has elected to be taxed as a “regulated investment company” and intends to distribute substantially all net investment company taxable income and net capital gains to shareholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. |
| |
| (g) The Fund has reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions, which include Federal and the state of Maryland, and concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements as of and for the year ended September 30, 2015. Open tax years are those that are open for exam by taxing authorities and, as of March 31, 2016, open Federal tax years include the tax years ended September 30, 2012 through 2015. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Fund’s Statement of Operations. During the six months ended March 31, 2016, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. The Fund has no examinations in progress and is also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next six months. |
| (h) The Fund’s cash is held in accounts with balances which may exceed the amount of related federal insurance. The Fund has not experienced any loss in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk. |
(2) | Investment Adviser and Management Agreement and Transactions With Related Parties — |
| |
| The Fund has a management agreement with Reynolds Capital Management, LLC (“RCM”), to serve as investment adviser and manager. The sole owner of RCM is Mr. Frederick L. Reynolds. Mr. Reynolds is also an officer and interested director of the Fund. Under the terms of the agreement, the Fund will pay RCM a monthly management fee at the annual rate of 1.00% of the daily net assets. |
| |
| The agreement further stipulates that RCM will reimburse the Fund for all expenses exceeding 2.00% of its daily average net assets (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary items). The Fund is not obligated to reimburse RCM for any expenses reimbursed in previous fiscal years. No such reimbursements were required for the six months ended March 31, 2016. |
| |
| The Fund has adopted a Service and Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur certain costs which may not exceed a maximum amount equal to 0.25% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets. Payments made pursuant to the Plan may only be used to pay distribution expenses incurred in the current year, and may be less than the maximum amount allowed by the Plan. |
| |
| Under the Fund’s organizational documents, each director, officer, employee or other agent of the Fund (including the Fund’s investment manager) is indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts |

| |
| that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and believes the risk of loss to be remote. |
| |
(3) | Distributions to Shareholders — |
| |
| Net investment income and net realized gains, if any, for the Fund are distributed to shareholders at least annually and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. |
| |
(4) | Investment Transactions — |
| |
| For the six months ended March 31, 2016, purchases and proceeds of sales of investment securities (excluding short-term securities) were $204,633,497 and $212,778,817, respectively. There were no purchases or sales of U.S. Government securities. |
| |
(5) | Income Tax Information — |
| |
| The following information for the Fund is presented on an income tax basis as of September 30, 2015: |
| Tax cost of investments | | $ | 78,723,443 | |
| Gross tax unrealized appreciation | | $ | 22,008,762 | |
| Gross tax unrealized depreciation | | | (5,256,469 | ) |
| Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 16,752,293 | |
| Distributable ordinary income | | $ | — | |
| Distributable long term capital gains | | | 6,849,445 | |

| Other accumulated losses | | $ | (820,037 | ) |
| Total accumulated gain | | $ | 22,781,701 | |
| The difference between the cost amount for financial statement and federal income tax purposes is due primarily to timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses in security transactions. |
| |
| The tax components of dividends paid during the six months ended March 31, 2016 and the year ended September 30, 2015: |
| Six Months Ended March 31, 2016 | Year Ended September 30, 2015 | |
| Ordinary Income | Long-Term Capital | Ordinary Income | Long-Term Capital | |
| Distributions | Gains Distributions | Distributions | Gains Distributions | |
| $— | $6,849,459 | $2,431,799 | $34,990,334 | |
| The Fund designated as long-term capital gain dividend, pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 852(b)(3), the amount necessary to reduce the earnings and profits of the Fund related to net capital gain to zero for the tax year ended September 30, 2015. |
| |
| As of September 30, 2015, the Fund did not have a post-October capital loss or a capital loss carryforward. The Fund had a late year ordinary loss of $820,037. |
Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund
ADVISORY AGREEMENT
(Unaudited)
On December 2, 2016, the Board of Directors of Reynolds Funds, Inc. (the “Directors”) approved the continuation of the investment advisory agreement for the Reynolds Fund Blue Chip Growth Fund (the “Fund”) with the investment adviser, Reynolds Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”). As part of the process of approving the continuation of the advisory agreement, the Directors reviewed the fiduciary duties of the Directors with respect to approving the advisory agreement and the relevant factors for the Directors to consider, and the members of the Board of Directors who are not deemed “interested persons” (as that term is defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940) of the Fund (the “Independent Directors”) met in executive session to discuss the approval of the advisory agreement.
In advance of the meeting, the Adviser sent detailed information to the Directors to assist them in their evaluation of the investment advisory agreement. This information included, but was not limited to, a memorandum from Fund counsel that summarized the legal standards applicable to the Directors’ consideration of the advisory agreement; comparative information relating to the Fund’s management fees and other expenses of the Fund; information regarding fees paid and other payments; information on the Adviser’s profitability; information about brokerage commissions; comparative information relating to the Fund’s performance; information about sales and redemptions of the Fund; information about the Fund’s compliance program; and other information the Directors believed was useful in evaluating the approval of the advisory agreement.
All of the factors discussed by the Directors were considered as a whole, and were considered separately by the Independent Directors meeting in executive session. The factors were viewed in their totality by the Directors, with no single factor being the principal or determinative factor in the Directors’ determination of whether to approve the continuation of the investment advisory agreement. The Directors recognized that the management and fee arrangements for the Fund are the result of years of review and discussion between the Independent Directors and the Adviser, that certain aspects of such arrangements may receive greater scrutiny in some years than in others and that the Directors’ conclusions may be based, in part, on their consideration of these same arrangements and information received during the course of the year and in prior years.
Prior to approving the continuation of the investment advisory agreement, the Directors and the Independent Directors in executive session considered, among other items:
• | The nature and quality of the investment advisory services provided by the Adviser. |
• | A comparison of the fees and expenses of the Fund to other similar funds. |
• | A comparison of the fee structures of other accounts managed by the Adviser. |
• | Whether economies of scale are recognized by the Fund. |
• | The costs and profitability of the Fund to the Adviser. |
• | The performance of the Fund. |
• | The other benefits to the Adviser from serving as investment adviser to the Fund (in addition to the advisory fee). |
The material considerations and determinations of the Board of Directors, including all of the Independent Directors, are as follows:
Nature and Quality of Investment Advisory Services
The Directors noted that the Adviser supervises the investment portfolio of the Fund, directing the day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio, including the purchase and sale of investment securities, and they discussed with management the nature of the investment process employed by the Adviser and the resources required to implement the process. Management stated that in employing its strategy, the Adviser conducts research on target companies and engages in ongoing oversight over the portfolio to address developments in the market. The Directors then discussed staffing at the Adviser, and concluded that the Adviser is sufficiently staffed to meet the investment objectives of the Fund.
Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund
ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Continued)
(Unaudited)
The Directors also considered the background and experience of Mr. Reynolds and the expertise of, and the amount of attention given to the Fund by, Mr. Reynolds. In addition, the Directors considered the quality of the material service providers to the Fund, who provide administrative and distribution services on behalf of the Fund and are overseen by the Adviser, and the overall reputation and capabilities of the Adviser. Based on this review, the Directors believe that the Adviser provides high quality services to the Fund, and they noted that their overall confidence in the Adviser is high. The Directors also concluded that they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the investment advisory services provided to the Fund by the Adviser, and that the nature and extent of the services provided by the Adviser are appropriate to assure that the Fund’s operations are conducted in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.
Comparative Fees and Expenses
The Directors then discussed with management the variables, in addition to the management fees, such as administrative and transaction fees, that impact costs to the shareholders of the Fund. Management reviewed with the Directors the comparison of the Fund’s expense ratios to other similar funds. As part of the discussion with management, the Directors ensured that they understood and were comfortable with the criteria used to determine the mutual funds included in the Morningstar categories for purposes of the materials considered at the meeting. The Directors concluded that the Fund’s fee structure is comparable to the Morningstar categories, and is reasonable.
Comparison of Fee Structures of Other Accounts
The Directors then inquired of management regarding the distinction between the services performed by the Adviser for institutional separate accounts and those performed by the Adviser for the Fund. The Adviser noted that the management of the Fund involves more comprehensive and substantive duties than the management of institutional separate accounts. Specifically, the Adviser noted the following:
• | The Adviser provides tailored investment advisory services to the Fund in order to accommodate the cash flow volatility presented by the purchases and redemptions of shareholders. |
• | With regard to the Fund, the Adviser attempts to serve the needs of thousands of accounts, ranging from direct accounts holding a few thousand dollars to the large omnibus accounts of intermediaries who in turn service thousands of large and small accounts. |
• | The Adviser maintains a shareholder communication effort for the Fund to reach shareholders through direct contact, through intermediaries, or via the financial press. |
• | The Adviser coordinates with the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer and other service providers to insure compliance with regulatory regimens imposed by Federal law and the Internal Revenue Code. |
The Directors concluded that the services performed by the Adviser for the Fund require a higher level of service and oversight than the services performed by the Adviser for institutional separate accounts. Based on this determination, the Directors believe that the differential in advisory fees between the Fund and the institutional separate accounts is reasonable, and concluded that the fee rates charged to the Fund in comparison to those charged to the Adviser’s other clients is reasonable.
In addition to the above, the Directors discussed with management the fact that increasingly investors in the Fund invest through brokerage platforms (intermediaries), with fewer investors going directly to the Fund’s transfer agent. The Directors noted that in connection with the intermediaries, the Adviser pays a portion of the fees paid for the Fund for services performed by the intermediaries. As result, the cost of obtaining, retaining and servicing shareholders for the Fund is significantly higher than the costs for separately managed accounts. The Directors concluded that the payment of the intermediary service fees by the Adviser further justifies the differential in advisory fees between the Fund and the institutional separate accounts.

ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Continued)
(Unaudited)
Economies of Scale
The Directors then discussed with management whether economies of scale are recognized by the Fund They noted that as Fund assets grow, certain fixed costs are spread over the larger asset base, which may lead to some economies of scale. On the other hand, the Directors noted that many of the Fund’s expenses are subject to diseconomies of scale. For example, the intermediary service fees generally increase as the Fund’s assets grow.
The Directors concluded that given the size of the Fund, economies of scale are not being recognized, and investment advisory fee breakpoints were not warranted at this time.
Costs and Profitability
The Directors discussed the Adviser’s profitability, as presented by Mr. Reynolds, and the impact of the intermediary service fees on the profitability. They also considered the resources and revenues that the Adviser has put into managing and distributing the Fund, and concluded that the level of profitability realized by the Adviser from its provision of services to the Fund is reasonable.
Performance
Mr. Reynolds discussed the performance of the Fund for different time periods compared to various benchmark indices. The Directors noted that at each quarterly meeting, the Directors review reports comparing the investment performance of the Fund to various indices. Based on the information provided at this meeting and the information and quarterly discussions regarding the Fund’s investment performance, the Directors believe that the Adviser manages the Fund in a manner that is materially consistent with its stated investment objective and style. The Directors concluded that the Fund’s investment performance has generally been good and that they have confidence in the management of the Fund.
Fall-Out Benefits
The Directors then considered other benefits to the Adviser from serving as the investment adviser to the Fund (in addition to the advisory fee). The Directors noted that the Adviser may derive ancillary benefits from its association with the Fund in the form of proprietary and third party research products and services received from broker dealers that execute portfolio trades for the Fund. The Directors determined that any such products and services have been used for legitimate purposes relating to the Fund by providing assistance in the investment decision-making process. The Directors concluded that the other benefits realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Fund were reasonable.
After reviewing the materials provided at the meeting, management’s presentation, as well as other information regularly provided at the Board’s quarterly meetings throughout the year regarding the quality of services provided by the Adviser, the performance of the Fund, expense information, regulatory compliance issues, trading information and related matters and other factors deemed relevant by the Board, the Directors, including all of the Independent Directors, approved the continuation of the investment advisory agreement.
Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund
QUALIFIED DIVIDEND INCOME/DIVIDEND RECEIVED DEDUCTION
(Unaudited)
The Fund designated 71% of dividends declared and paid during the year ended September 30, 2015 from net investment income as qualified dividend income under the Jobs Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003.
Corporate shareholders may be eligible for a dividend received deduction for certain ordinary income distributions paid by the Fund. The Fund designated 64% of dividends declared and paid during the year ended September 30, 2015 from net investment income as qualifying for the dividends received deduction. The deduction is a pass through of dividends paid by domestic corporations (i.e. only equities) subject to taxation.
HOUSEHOLDING(Unaudited)
In an effort to decrease costs, the Fund intends to reduce the number of duplicate prospectuses and annual and semi-annual reports you receive by sending only one copy of each to those addresses shared by two or more accounts and to shareholders the Fund reasonably believes are from the same family or household. Once implemented, if you would like to discontinue householding for your accounts, please call toll-free at 1-800-773-9665 to request individual copies of these documents. Once the Fund receives notice to stop householding, the Fund will begin sending individual copies 30 days after receiving your request. This policy does not apply to account statements.
