LETTER FROM THE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT TEAM | | 
|
June 30, 2012
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
The “macro-driven market” environment discussed in the last several shareholder letters, as well as on page 3, continued in full force in the quarter ended June 30, 2012. In fact, this was the first time two high correlation spikes occurred in one year. Not surprisingly, the Bridgeway Funds that had the broadest market exposure (Blue Chip 35 Index, Ultra-Small Company Market, and Small-Cap Momentum Funds) plus our more value oriented Fund (Small-Cap Value Fund) were the ones that beat their market benchmarks in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012. Those Funds with more exposure to our growth leaning models (Aggressive Investors 1, Ultra-Small Company, Small-Cap Growth and Large-Cap Growth Funds) did not. The quarter did give us our first test of how our Select models performed in a high correlation spike after adding data from the first three high correlation spikes and adjusting our models accordingly; overall, our growth leaning Funds performed in line with expectations: an improvement over the previous three spikes in 2008, 2010, and 2011. A discussion of the factors that affected the market environment, as well as their impact on the different market sectors, appears on page 2.
Each fiscal year we commit to reporting to shareholders what we think is the worst thing at Bridgeway during the year. This year it took a vote from our Partners to help us decide what the worst thing was. Details are on page 4.
Contrary to the advice of most financial advisers, investors below the age of 35 have become more risk averse than 35 to 64 year olds. Will this hurt their chances for a secure retirement? See page 4.
Last quarter we reviewed the case for equities and why it’s so important to have a long-term asset allocation plan and stick with it. This quarter, on page 5, we focus on bonds, the reasons why investors continue to move from stock mutual funds to bond mutual funds, and why we think bonds are unusually risky in the current environment, in spite of their appearance of safety.
One of the strongest parts of our culture is a commitment to community and world change. On page 7, Cindy Griffin and Michele Camp share their experiences on affecting world change by digging a water well during a service trip to El Salvador with five other Partners.
As always, we appreciate your feedback. We take your comments very seriously and regularly discuss them internally to help in managing our Funds and this company. Please keep your ideas coming — both favorable and critical. They provide us with a vital tool, helping us serve you better.
Sincerely,
Your Investment Management Team

Market Review
The positive momentum that carried the market at the end of 2011 and through the first quarter of 2012 came to an end in the second quarter. Domestic and global fears crept into the market, causing equities to slide as investors retreated from risky, more volatile stocks. A shift to the perceived safety of government bonds sent the yield on the 10-year Treasury note down to 1.56%. The economically sensitive commodity prices declined, oil prices declined 18%, and volatility and high correlations returned to the Dow as investors focused attention on macroeconomic events. The Dow Jones Industrial Average stomached 22 days of triple digit moves, compared to 6 in the first quarter. Companies were not well rewarded for high earnings surprises and were severely beaten down for reporting lower than expected earnings. The “sweet spot” seemed to be large companies in the “middle of the pack.” In other words, investors were looking for stability.
The quarter started with fear in April and May when the European debt crisis reignited. Concern that Greece would exit the euro as a result of the “pro-bailout” New Democracy party failing to win an early election led to scrutiny of all sovereign debt holdings. Government bond yields in Italy and Spain spiked. The quarter ended June 30, 2012 followed the 2010 and 2011 pattern of a mid year correction. The New Democracy prevailed in the second Greek election and calmed fears of a rapid exit. Eurozone leaders relaxed conditions for emergency bank loans, and the potential for additional Fed intervention via quantitative easing (QE3) helped boost the market, but it was not enough to erase the losses from April and May. The S&P 500 Index ended down 2.75% for the quarter.
There was a huge disparity between the returns of large and mid-cap stocks. This is evident in the CRSP (Center for Research in Security Prices) Portfolio Index returns for the fiscal year. The CRSP 1 Index (ultra-large stocks) outperformed all other deciles of market cap, returning 7.66% for the fiscal year. The CRSP 5 Index (mid-cap stocks) was the worst performing decile, falling 6.10%. At the other end of the spectrum, the CRSP 10 Index (ultra-small stocks) declined 0.85%, reflecting higher risk associated with ultra-small stocks (a negative in the fiscal year) but also the advantage in this fiscal year of being “off the radar screen.”
Returns across all style boxes, as defined by Morningstar, were negative for the quarter. Value stocks outpaced growth stocks, and investors generally favored large stocks over small, with large value leading the way, returning -1.61%.
Four of the ten S&P 500 Index sectors posted positive returns, with defensive stocks outperforming cyclicals. The financial sector was hit the hardest amid credit rating agency downgrades of major U.S. and European banks, as well as financial market weakness and slowing global economic growth. Information technology, energy, materials, industrials and consumer discretionary also underperformed the market. Telecommunication services shone, returning 14.15%. Consumer staples, healthcare, and utilities were also positive for the quarter.
Following are the stock market “style box” returns from Morningstar for the quarter and year:

Macro Driven Markets — An update
The Short Version: As highlighted in the last several shareholder letters, the primarily macro-driven markets of the last four years have been particularly unfavorable to some of our Select Funds, especially those with a strong growth component (Aggressive Investors 1, Ultra-Small Company, Large-Cap Growth, and Small-Cap Growth Funds). Last quarter we dissected the dynamics of these markets, why they have been less favorable to our growth leaning stock picking models, and why we do not expect our relative performance to be hit as hard should macro driven markets continue. The June quarter gave us our first test of this latter belief, and our performance was indeed in line with expectations for this group of four Funds.
High correlation markets are markets where individual stock prices tend to move proportionally in tandem — statistically, time periods when stock correlations exceed 0.5. We call these “macro-driven markets,” markets within which investors focus on macroeconomic events, such as the European debt crisis, rather than the economic health of individual companies. Thus, in a macro driven market, good news at Company XYZ is less likely to favorably impact its stock price than in most market environments. Macro-driven markets are unfavorable to our more growth leaning stock picking models in particular, since our models focus on data at the company rather than national or world level.
In our December 2011 semi-annual report we “dove deep” to consider the strongly negative effects of macro-driven markets on our Select Funds that use our more growth leaning models. In that report we stated:
Within the context of an unchanged investment process, the adviser has made incremental changes to its stock picking models that we believe would help relative performance in future macro-driven markets without any cost to our performance in micro-driven markets, which historically comprise the vast majority of markets.
The high stock correlations in the last half of calendar year 2011, which characterize market environments unfavorable to some of our stock picking models, dropped back to normal historical levels in January and February. This gave a performance tailwind to some of our Funds. Time will tell what the follow-through looks like and when we will see the next “macro-driven market,” which we hope is not for a few years (or decades).
The last sentence was prescient within the context of the June quarter: it only took a couple of months before we experienced another high correlation spike and had the opportunity to test our incremental stock picking model improvements and extended data that included a number of high correlation spikes. Overall, we passed the test for this quarter. Five of our 11 funds outperformed their primary market benchmark. Our more growth leaning funds (Aggressive Investors 1, Ultra-Small Company, Small-Cap Growth, and Large-Cap Growth Funds) did not beat their market benchmarks, as expected; but even half of these outperformed their peer benchmarks. For the six-month period through June, these four Funds as a group had “OK” performance — doing much better than in the previous three high correlation spikes in spite of being in an unfavorable market environment.
The following graph presents the long term view of macro-driven, high correlation markets, with two spikes in the last fiscal year and four in the last four fiscal years. We continue to believe strongly that the market will return to a micro-driven environment, one in which the market focuses on the economic health of individual companies — an environment that our growth leaning models and funds have historically favored.

The Worst Thing of the Fiscal Year
The Short Version: While half of our Funds had strong performance over the fiscal year, four really performed miserably: Aggressive Investors 1, Ultra-Small Company, Large-Cap Growth, and Small-Cap Growth Funds. As highlighted in the previous section, the market delivered two high correlation spikes in one year, the first time this has happened since 1946. This is a market environment generally unfavorable for these Funds, though we think high correlation spikes will not have such a deleterious affect going forward.
In each annual report for the last fourteen fiscal years, Bridgeway has revealed its “worst thing of the year.” This section has become an important Bridgeway tradition. As a shareholder, you are the owner and “boss,” and we think you have a right to know the negatives as well as the positives. In previous years we have discussed company turnover, trading errors, compliance issues, and specific periods of the performance of one or more of our Funds. Part of our firm’s culture is transparency (we’re the only Fund firm we know of that addresses this topic in an annual report), and we work hard to address problems and not repeat mistakes.
This year’s choice for “worst thing” was the performance of our four more growth leaning Select Funds. The dynamics of high correlation markets were discussed in the previous section. It’s easy enough to chalk up this year’s worst thing to factors beyond Bridgeway’s control, and one can make a strong case for it this year. However, by way of continual learning we should also ask, “Is there anything the adviser could have done within the scope of these Funds’ investment objectives, strategies, and investment process to anticipate or dampen the negative effects of these market spikes?” Our answer: we continue to believe that market timing is a loser’s game, so trying to time or anticipate high correlation spikes is not realistic and is likely counterproductive.
Are Young Investors Investing Too Conservatively?
The Short Version: Investors under the age of 35 are taking on less risk than older baby boomers. Most investment advisers recommend the opposite: more risk at a young age, less later in life.
The following graph with data from the Investment Company Institute demonstrates a phenomenon we hear about frequently: investors are more risk-averse than they were a decade ago. What is most surprising to us at Bridgeway, however, is the breakdown by age: elderly investors have not significantly changed their appetite for risk, while younger investors’ risk appetite has plummeted — to the point that it is slightly lower than that of the baby boomer generation. This seems upside down. Financial advisors typically preach that younger investors can afford to take on more risk and should do so. Something to ponder.

What Recent Fund Flows and History Tell Us About the Risk of Bonds — from Bridgeway’s Chief Investment Officer
The Short Version: Last quarter we reviewed the case for equities and why it’s so important to have a long-term asset allocation plan and stick with it. This quarter we focus on bonds, the reasons why investors continue to move from stock mutual funds to bond mutual funds, and why we think bonds are unusually risky in the current environment.
Over the decade of the 2000’s, intermediate-term and long-term government bonds outperformed stocks. As presented in the table below, the S&P 500 Index returned 1.41% for the ten years through December 2010, while intermediate-term Treasuries returned 5.64%/year and long-term Treasuries returned 6.64%. Some people would conclude from this that since government bonds are relatively safe — they are backed by the U.S. Government — as well as less volatile (see the table below), they are a simply a better deal: less risk, more return.
Risk and Returns (the “lost decade,” December 2000 to December 2010)
| | | | | | | | |
| | | Total Returns/Year | | | | Volatility | |
| | | | | | | | |
Long-term government bonds | | | 6.64% | | | | 12.40 | |
Intermediate-term government bonds | | | 5.64% | | | | 5.20 | |
S&P 500 (stocks) | | | 1.41% | | | | 16.30 | |
What investors don’t see in this equation is that bonds have received a tremendous “tailwind” from declining interest rates over the last decade, one that is very unlikely to be repeated. Why? Ten-year Treasury bonds recently hit an all-time low. Can they go lower? Yes, but while theoretically possible, it is very unlikely that they will go into negative territory. Had interest rates remained flat over the last decade, total returns would have been somewhat lower. But it gets more interesting looking forward. If bond yields only remain at current levels, total return drops to the current yield, 0.59% for intermediate-term government bonds, 2.48% for long-term government bonds. And as interest rates rise significantly, bond prices and total returns fall. So, for example, if interest rates were to rise to the long-term historical average in the next year, the one-year returns for intermediate bonds would be -12.41%, with long-term bonds at -23.60%. Scarier yet is if inflation kicked in. Since our national debt is at the highest level (as a percent of gross domestic product) since World War II, I believe this is a real and serious risk

|
over the two to five year time frame, though perhaps not over the next year, as the Federal Reserve seeks to keep interest rates low. If a drop in interest rates was coupled with inflation increasing to 10% per year (double digit inflation occurred in both 1979 and 1980), the one-year return for intermediate bonds after adjusting for inflation would drop to -20.38% with long-term bonds dropping to -30.55%.
This concept is referred to as interest rate risk related to inflation risk, a very real risk that I believe many investors are ignoring as they shift from stocks to bonds.
The following table shows the extent to which mutual fund investors have been shifting from stocks to bonds over the recent six year period:

Source: Investment Company Institute. Includes domestic equities only.
Unfortunately, the timing of these flows may be the next prime example of a phenomenon we have discussed previously, the behavior gap. Investors tend to pile into stocks after a bull market, as in the period of the late 1990s internet bubble. This was ill-timed, as 2000 to 2002 was the most extended bear market in the last seven decades. When stocks were relatively cheap during this current period, investors shifted to the perceived safety of bonds. Again, ill-timed in retrospect. What I worry about most now is the possibility that the recent move to bonds portends a “bond bubble.” Specifically, that inflation and rising interest rates could deliver a double whammy to bondholders. This isn’t to say that bonds aren’t an appropriate investment in a well diversified portfolio, just that an overreliance on them carries its own significant risks.
What’s an investor to do? We believe that creating, writing down, and implementing a disciplined asset allocation plan is the best antidote to the behavior gap problem. Right now that might be guarding against an overreliance on bonds, particularly because they’ve done so well over the last one and two decades.
| | |
LETTER FROM THE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT TEAM (continued) | | 
|
Throughout this section we have focused on Treasury bonds to demonstrate the risk to bonds of interest rates and a rise in inflation. Corporate and municipal bonds, especially lower rated ones, carry more default risk, but somewhat muted inflation and interest rate risk. This is perhaps a good reason to diversify, even within one’s bond holdings.
Transformative Change — authored by Cindy Griffin and Michele Camp
Last quarter, we talked about Bridgeway’s mission statement and how our partners were effecting extraordinary change at a local level to support our mission. This quarter, we share a service project with Living Water International (LWI) in El Salvador and highlight how Bridgeway partners are effecting extraordinary change outside of their local communities.
In May, seven Bridgeway partners left the comfort and safety of Houston, Texas for El Salvador. For the two of us, this was the first time on a service trip with our colleagues at Bridgeway; several of whom had completed similar trips in prior years. Our task? To work with LWI to drill a water well for a rural, impoverished community in El Salvador called El Mango. For five days, we were covered in mud, sweat and more mud as we took turns operating the hydraulic well drill, taking dirt samples, assembling PVC pipes, mixing and pouring concrete, and all other various tasks involved in completing a well. We labored side-by-side with the people of El Mango, who offered their own tools, strength, and determination to ensure the success of the project. It was hard work, especially in a tropical climate where it feels like it’s constantly 120 degrees with 100 percent humidity.
Five days flew by, and we were astounded by how much our team was able to accomplish in such a short amount of time. We struck water on the first day at 90 feet, which put us ahead of schedule. In fact, we were so far ahead of schedule in El Mango that we travelled to another community, where we helped complete a 220 foot well. Our final day at the drill site was spent putting the finishing touches on the El Mango well and participating in a dedication ceremony with the community. It was a joyous day of celebration and excitement. We were overwhelmed with happiness at seeing the locals pump fresh, clean water for the first time. They were so grateful and so thankful. When the festivities were over, we loaded up the truck, took a few more pictures, piled in the van and waved goodbye to our new friends one last time.
So why did we go? Why would a firm of only 29 people send seven away for a week to drill a water well? Part of Bridgeway’s vision statement states, “Partners effecting extraordinary community and world change.” It’s who we are and what we’re about – it’s engrained in our culture. For a week in May, a group of seven Bridgeway partners literally lived our vision statement and effected extraordinary community and world change in the little village of El Mango. But it took more than the seven of us to make this happen. We left behind our families and our fellow partners, who gladly and graciously gave of themselves so that we could be gone for a week. Even though they weren’t there physically, their love and support were equally important and such a necessary and vital component to our trip. It was unifying, not just for the people who went to El Salvador, but for everyone involved. As another partner, James McKissick (who has been involved with LWI for a long time), beautifully stated, “Stepping out of yourself brings out a whole new energy.” It does and it did, for everyone at Bridgeway. We came back with a renewed passion for our vision statement, realizing that the higher we performed at our job, the better our company would be, which would lead to more success and very importantly, greater giving. The small community of El Mango is a perfect example of the BIG difference 29 people can make.

Aggressive Investors 1 Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) | |  |
June 30, 2012
Dear Fellow Aggressive Investors 1 Fund Shareholder,
For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 4.80%, trailing our primary market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index (-2.75%), and the Russell 2000 Index (-3.47%). We did outperform our peer benchmark, the Lipper Capital Appreciation Funds Index (-5.10%). It was the fourth high correlation spike — an historically rare, but unfriendly environment for our Fund. Our Fund navigated this one much better than the previous three, as discussed in detail below. It was a mixed quarter, but we are guardedly pleased in this market context.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 9.59%, badly trailing our primary benchmark, the S&P 500 Index (+5.45%), our peer benchmark, the Lipper Capital Appreciation Funds Index (-1.67%) and the Russell 2000 Index (-2.08%). Two market phenomena created a tremendous headwind of performance we have not seen previously in the 17+ year history of our Fund: first, two correlation spikes occurred in the same fiscal year as discussed on page 3 and in the section on annual performance below. Second, there was a huge disparity between the returns of large and mid-cap stocks as discussed in the market overview on page 2; the “size effect” cost our Fund over five percentage points of returns for the fiscal year. We did receive a mild tailwind from one factor: our models’ tilt toward quality (e.g. low debt) stocks helped us to the tune of almost two percentage points.
You may recall that our prior fiscal year 2011 contained no high correlation peaks (what we refer to as “macro-driven markets”) and we outperformed the S&P 500 by just over 10%. This is in stark contrast to the current fiscal year 2012, the first time we have ever experienced two high correlation spikes in the same year (September and June quarters). In spite of two positive quarters (December 2011 and March 2012), the two high correlation spikes (September 2011 and June 2012) of the fiscal year put us strongly “in the red” for the fiscal year. For reasons outlined on page 3, proactive steps on our part make us more optimistic about negotiating high correlation spikes in the future, should they continue.
The table below presents our June quarter, one-year, five-year, ten-year and inception-to-date financial results. See the next page for a graph of performance since inception.

Aggressive Investors 1 Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
The S&P 500 Index is a broad-based, unmanaged measurement of changes in stock market conditions, based on the average of 500 widely held common stocks with dividends reinvested. The Russell 2000 Index is an unmanaged, market value weighted index that measures performance of the 2,000 companies that are between the 1,000th and 3,000th largest in the market with dividends reinvested. The Lipper Capital Appreciation Funds Index reflects the record of the 30 largest funds in the category of more aggressive domestic growth mutual funds, as reported by Lipper, Inc. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Periods longer than one year are annualized.
According to data from Lipper, Inc. as of June 30, 2012, Aggressive Investors 1 Fund ranked 262nd of 288 capital appreciation funds for the twelve months ending June 30, 2012, 230th of 231 over the last five years, 137th of 169 over the last ten years, and 3rd of 53 since inception in August, 1994. Lipper, Inc. is an independent mutual fund rating service that ranks funds in various fund categories by making comparative calculations using total returns.

Detailed Explanation of Quarterly Performance
The Short Version: In a quarter that contained the fourth high correlation spike in the last four years, our newly optimized models handled the spike much better, though we still underperformed our primary market benchmark. Differences in company size between the Fund and our primary market benchmark fully explain our quarterly variance. Our models continued to pick stocks that are strong performers on a fundamental basis (as measured by following quarterly earnings report surprises), but were not rewarded with strong price increases — as expected in a macro-driven market.
We underperformed our primary market benchmark by just over two percent for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. It was a period that showed the fourth high correlation spike since 2008. It was the first spike since we completed the re-optimization of our models, including data from the previous three high correlation spikes. The results, while we still underperformed, were much improved over the last three high correlation spikes.
Our primary market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index is very heavily weighted in ultra-large stocks, those in the largest size decile of the NYSE, with over 75% of the Index in that decile. Since the Aggressive Investors 1 Fund chooses from among a broader range of stocks and does not weight them by size, the Fund has about 25% of net assets in the largest decile. This has given the Fund a slight tailwind over longer historical periods, but it cost the Fund over two and one-half percent of relative performance this quarter.

Aggressive Investors 1 Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
On the bright side, our models continued to pick stocks that were strong performers on a fundamental basis (as measured by following quarter earnings report surprises), but were not rewarded with price increases. This is a pattern we have seen in each of the high correlation spikes.
Detailed Explanation of Fiscal Year Performance
The Short Version: The fiscal year contained two high correlation spikes, the first of which occurred before we completed our model re-optimization. The majority of our underperformance for the fiscal year occurred during the period of that first spike.
We underperformed the S&P 500 Index by 15.0% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. It was a period that contained two high correlation spikes. The first spike occurred in the September quarter of 2011 while we were still in the process of re-optimizing our models to include the most recent data and add some model improvements. Almost 13% of our underperformance was attributable to that high correlation spike. The second spike happened in the June quarter of 2012 after the re-optimization and our underperformance was reduced to only two percent. While this is only one data point for our newly optimized models, we are pleased with the improvement, since high correlation spikes are still the historical exception and we believe we will better navigate them going forward, should they continue.
Similar to the June quarter, company size hurt in the fiscal year, costing the Fund more than fifteen percent of relative return. The Financials sector was the only sector that added significant positive relative return to the Fund, contributing over five percentage points. Information Technology was our worst performing sector, costing the Fund over four percentage points of return relative to the S&P 500 Index. The Fund’s large exposure to high beta stocks cost almost seven percent in relative return, while our “quality tilt” (low debt) helped to the tune of almost two percent.

The views expressed here are exclusively those of Fund management. These views, including those related to market sectors or individual stocks, are not meant as investment advice and should not be considered predictive in nature. Any favorable (or unfavorable) description of a holding applies only as of the quarter-end, June 30, 2012, unless otherwise stated. Security positions can and do change thereafter. Discussions of historical performance do not guarantee and may not be indicative of future performance.
Market volatility can significantly affect short-term performance. The Fund is not an appropriate investment for short-term investors. Investments in the small companies within this multi-cap fund generally carry greater risk than is customarily associated with larger companies. This additional risk is attributable to a number of factors, including the relatively limited financial resources that are typically available to small companies and the fact that small companies often have comparatively limited product lines. In addition, the stock of small companies tends to be more volatile than the stock of large companies, particularly in the short term and particularly in the early stages of an economic or market downturn. The Fund’s use of options, futures, and leverage can magnify the risk of loss in an unfavorable market, and the Fund’s use of short-sale positions can, in theory, expose shareholders to unlimited loss. Finally, the Fund exposes shareholders to “focus risk,” which may add to Fund volatility through the possibility that a single company could significantly affect total return. Shareholders of the Fund, therefore, are taking on more risk than they would if they invested in the stock market as a whole.
Conclusion
Thank you for your continued investment in Aggressive Investors 1 Fund. We encourage your feedback; your reactions and concerns are extremely important to us.

Ultra-Small Company Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) | |  |
June 30, 2012
Dear Fellow Ultra-Small Company Fund Shareholder,
For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 6.55%, trailing our primary market benchmark, the CRSP Cap-Based Portfolio 10 Index (-2.01%), our peer benchmark, the Lipper Micro-Cap Stock Funds Index (-4.15%), the Russell Microcap Index (-1.98%) and the Russell 2000 Index (-3.47%). It was a quarter that contained the fourth high correlation spike since 2008 (see page 3 for a fuller explanation), an environment generally unfavorable to our Fund’s performance.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 5.41%, trailing our primary market benchmark, the CRSP Cap-Based Portfolio 10 Index (-0.85%), our peer benchmark, the Lipper Micro-Cap Stock Funds Index (-2.53%), the Russell Microcap Index (-0.54%) and the Russell 2000 Index (-2.08%). In spite of two strong quarters (December 2011 and March 2012), the two high correlation spikes (September 2011 and June 2012) of the fiscal year put us strongly “in the red” for the period. For reasons outlined on page 3, proactive steps on our part make us more optimistic about negotiating high correlation spikes in the future, should they continue.
The table below presents our June quarter, one-year, five-year, ten-year and inception-to-date financial results. See the next page for a graph of performance since inception.

Detailed Explanation of Quarterly Performance
The Short Version: Our Fund performed poorly in the fourth high correlation spike of the last four years. Note there have only been three other high correlation spikes in the six+ decades preceding.
The table below presents index performance numbers of stocks by size for different time periods. It indicates that even though the returns were negative in all deciles, we had a nice tailwind to ride in the quarter ended June 30, 2012 as the 10th decile outperformed all other size stocks.

Our June quarter underperformance was broad based across sector, model, size, and valuation. The high correlation spike unquestionably affected Fund returns. On an encouraging note, our models continued to pick companies that showed improving corporate level economic health. However, companies that surprised Wall Street to the upside were rewarded little, while those surprising analysts on the downside were relatively hammered. Since we now have four high correlation spikes in our
| | |
Ultra-Small Company Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
calibration database, we believe our models will negotiate these better in the future, should they continue. Eventually, however, we believe investors will get back to focusing on individual company health as a driver of stock price, fostering an environment that has been historically much friendlier to our Fund’s returns.
Detailed Explanation of Fiscal Year Performance
The Short Version: Much like the quarter, two high correlation spikes took their toll, in spite of two other strong quarters (December 2011 and March 2012).
As in the latest quarter, poor performing stocks were represented in a broad based fashion across the Information Technology, Industrials, Financials and Energy sectors. Strong stock picking in the Consumer Discretionary sector was not enough to offset the other sectors, however. Generally speaking, our higher risk stocks predictably did the most damage.

unfavorable) description of a holding applies only as of the quarter-end, June 30, 2012, unless otherwise stated. Security positions can and do change thereafter. Discussions of historical performance do not guarantee and may not be indicative of future performance.
The Fund is subject to very high, above market risk (volatility) and is not an appropriate investment for short-term investors. Investments in ultra-small companies generally carry greater risk than is customarily associated with larger companies and even “small companies” for various reasons, such as narrower markets (fewer investors), limited financial resources and greater trading difficulty.
Conclusion
Ultra-Small Company Fund remains closed to new investors. We encourage your feedback; your reactions and concerns are important to us.
Sincerely,
The Investment Management Team

Ultra-Small Company Market Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) | |  |
June 30, 2012
Dear Fellow Ultra-Small Company Market Fund Shareholder,
For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 1.81%, outperforming our primary market benchmark, the CRSP Cap-Based Portfolio 10 Index (-2.01%), our peer benchmark, the Lipper Micro-Cap Stock Funds Index (-4.15%), the Russell Microcap Index (-1.98%), and the Russell 2000 Index (-3.47%). It was a clean sweep, and we were pleased to provide some “cushion” in a down market.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, our Fund appreciated 1.05%, outperforming each of our performance benchmarks, none of which had a positive return: our primary market benchmark, the CRSP Cap-Based Portfolio 10 Index (-0.85%), our peer benchmark, the Lipper Micro-Cap Stock Funds Index (-2.53%), the Russell Microcap Index (-0.54%), and the Russell 2000 Index (-2.08%). Due largely to a single year’s performance in the “junk rally” and penny stock explosion of 2009, we still trail our primary market benchmark for the longer five- and ten-year periods. We trail the “CRSP 10” index since inception by an amount smaller than our expense ratio, which means that we have reasonably captured our asset class return over the nearly fifteen-year life of our Fund, but with less risk.
The table below presents our June quarter, one-year, five-year, ten-year and inception-to-date financial results. See the next page for a graph of performance since inception.

Ultra-Small Company Market Fund vs. CRSP Cap-Based Portfolio 10 Index, Russell Microcap Index*,
Russell 2000 Index & Lipper Micro-Cap Stock Funds Index from Inception 7/31/97 to 6/30/12

Detailed Explanation of Quarterly Performance:
The Short Version: Ultra-small stocks performed better than any other size stocks for the quarter, with Consumer Staples and Financial stocks leading the way.
Since we are committed to investing long term in smaller stocks than the vast majority of small-cap mutual funds, a primary determinant of our performance relative to most other funds is the size of the companies in which we invest. Our investment strategy is to approximate the long-term returns of the CRSP Cap-Based Portfolio 10 Index of ultra-small companies by investing in a representative sample of ultra-small stocks. As shown in the table below, even though the returns were negative in all deciles, we had a nice tailwind to ride in the quarter ended June 30, 2012 as the 10th decile outperformed all other size stocks. As would be true in a majority of market declines, and indeed in all six calendar year bear markets for ultra-small stocks since the Fund’s inception, our sidestepping models helped provide some “cushion.”

Ultra-Small Company Market Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
The Fund’s sector allocation was very much in line with the Index for the period, with only two sectors differing as much as one percent. Consumer Staples and Financials were the only sectors that produced positive overall returns in the ultra-small universe for the quarter.
Detailed Explanation of Fiscal Year Performance
The Short Version: Ultra-small stocks showed off their diversifying advantages in the recent fiscal year. The Financials sector comprised 26% of Fund net assets at fiscal year end and added the most to Fund performance for the fiscal year.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, ultra-small stocks outperformed all deciles, with the exception of the 1st and 2nd deciles — demonstrating some of the nice diversifying characteristics of ultra-small stocks. It’s interesting to think about the dynamics of this. Investors flocked to the perceived safety of ultra-large stocks — no surprise. But why did ultra-small stocks not experience the relative pounding of mid- and small-cap stocks? We believe they are generally “off the radar screen” of large institutions that make big shifts in asset allocation, such as happened significantly during our fiscal year. Generally, ultra-small stocks are more — not less — risky than small- and mid-cap stocks. Yet sometimes they are “left alone” in downturns (declining less), adding significant diversification to a multi-asset class portfolio. This we know well from history. The exact reason for this statistical diversification is harder to pinpoint. In fairness, our diversifying aspects work both ways, sometimes helping, sometimes hurting absolute Fund performance. But our conservative “side-stepping models” have done a great job of providing some cushion for our asset class in downturns.
This size effect in the fiscal year helped our performance a great deal in comparison to other small-cap and mid-cap funds. Much like the quarter, the Fund’s sector allocation was right on target with the index; no sector differed by even one percent. The Financials sector was the strongest performing sector for the fiscal year, adding three percent to the Fund’s return, even though no financial stocks were among our best performers for the year.

Disclaimer
The views expressed here are exclusively those of Fund management. These views, including those related to market sectors or individual stocks, are not meant as investment advice and should not be considered predictive in nature. Any favorable (or unfavorable) description of a holding applies only as of the quarter-end, June 30, 2012, unless otherwise stated. Security positions can and do change thereafter. Discussions of historical performance do not guarantee and may not be indicative of future performance.
The Fund is subject to very high, above market risk (volatility) and is not an appropriate investment for short-term investors. Investments in ultra-small companies generally carry greater risk than is customarily associated with larger companies and even “small companies” for various reasons, such as narrower markets (fewer investors), limited financial resources and greater trading difficulty.
Conclusion
Thank you for your continued investment in Ultra-Small Company Market Fund. We encourage your feedback; your reactions and concerns are important to us.

MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) | |
June 30, 2012
Dear Fellow Small-Cap Momentum Fund Shareholder,
For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 4.26%, underperforming our primary market benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index (-3.47%). Although our risk adjustment feature helped, it was not enough to overcome the negative impact of a price momentum strategy in this “choppy” market. It was a poor quarter overall.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 1.40%, beating our primary market benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index (-2.08%). We are happier with the “cushion” we provided in the fiscal year. We continue to lead the Index over the life of the Fund.
The table below presents our June quarter, one-year and inception-to-date financial results. See the next page for a graph of performance since inception.

Performance figures quoted in the table above and graph below represent past performance and are no guarantee of future results. Total return figures in the table above and the graph below include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. The table above and the graph below do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
The Russell 2000 Index is an unmanaged, market value weighted index that measures performance of the 2,000 companies that are between the 1,000th and 3,000th largest in the market with dividends reinvested. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Periods longer than one year are annualized.
According to data from Lipper, Inc. as of June 30, 2012, Small-Cap Momentum Fund ranked 184th of 682 small-cap core funds for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2012 and 171st of 650 such funds since inception in May, 2010. Lipper, Inc. is an independent mutual fund rating service that ranks funds in various fund categories by making comparative calculations using total returns.

Small-Cap Momentum Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
Small-Cap Momentum Fund vs. Russell 2000 Index from Inception 5/28/10 to 6/30/12

Detailed Explanation of Quarterly Performance
The Short Version: Our price momentum exposure hurt returns in the June quarter.
The Fund performed in line with its design objective for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. Our exposure to price momentum hurt in the “zigzag” market of the January through June 2012 time period. Even though the risk-adjustment overlay did cushion the underperformance somewhat, we weren’t able to overcome the downdraft from price momentum exposure. Lower weighting and strong stock picking in the poor performing Energy sector helped our relative return. Poor stock selection in the Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology sectors hurt the Fund’s relative performance.
Detailed Explanation of Fiscal Year Performance
The Short Version: The Fund’s risk-adjustment overlay did overcome our exposure to price momentum, which allowed the Fund to outperform the index for the full fiscal year.
The Fund performed according to its design during the full fiscal year. Our exposure to price momentum, as expected, hurt the Fund in a choppy market. However, the risk-adjustment overlay helped cushion the fall, resulting in some outperformance versus its Russell 2000 Index benchmark for the fiscal year. Our relative overweighting of smaller companies also added some cushion. Strong stock selection in the Energy sector helped our relative performance, while poor stock selection in the Financials and Information Technology sectors hurt relative performance.

Disclaimer
The views expressed here are exclusively those of Fund management. These views, including those related to market sectors or individual stocks, are not meant as investment advice and should not be considered predictive in nature. Any favorable (or unfavorable) description of a holding applies only as of June 30, 2012, unless otherwise stated. Security positions can and do change thereafter. Discussions of historical performance do not guarantee and are not indicative of future performance.
Market volatility can significantly impact short-term performance. The Fund is not an appropriate investment for short-term investors. Investments in small companies generally carry greater risk than is customarily associated with larger companies. This additional risk is attributable to a number of factors, including the relatively limited financial resources that are typically available to small companies, and the fact that small companies often have comparatively limited product lines. In addition, the stock of small companies tends to be more volatile than the stock of large companies, particularly in the short term and particularly in the early stages of an economic or market downturn. Shareholders of the Fund, therefore, are taking on more risk than they would if they invested in the stock market as a whole.

Small-Cap Growth Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) | |  |
June 30, 2012
Dear Fellow Small-Cap Growth Fund Shareholder,
For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 7.40%, trailing our primary market benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index (-3.94%) and our peer benchmark, the Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds Index (-4.56%). The June quarter poor performance corresponds to the fourth high correlation spike since 2008, a market environment unfavorable to our Fund as outlined in the section “Macro-driven Market Update” on page 3.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 6.35%, trailing our primary market benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index (-2.71%) and our peer benchmark, the Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds Index (-3.50%). In spite of two strong quarters (December 2011 and March 2012), the two high correlation spikes (September 2011 and June 2012) of the fiscal year put us strongly “in the red” for the fiscal year. For reasons outlined on page 3, proactive steps on our part make us more optimistic about negotiating high correlation spikes in the future, should they continue.
The table below presents our June quarter, one-year, five-year and inception-to-date financial results. See the next page for a graph of performance since inception.

Performance figures quoted in the table above and graph below represent past performance and are no guarantee of future results. Total return figures in the table above include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. The table above and the graph below do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
The Russell 2000 Growth Index is an unmanaged index that consists of stocks in the Russell 2000 Index with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values with dividends reinvested. The Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds Index is an index of small-company, growth-oriented funds compiled by Lipper, Inc. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Periods longer than one year are annualized.
According to data from Lipper, Inc. as of June 30, 2012, Small-Cap Growth Fund ranked 339th of 513 small-cap growth funds for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2012, 391st of 394 over the last five years and 282nd of 287 such funds since inception in October, 2003. Lipper, Inc. is an independent mutual fund rating service that ranks funds in various fund categories by making comparative calculations using total returns.

Small-Cap Growth Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
Small-Cap Growth Fund vs. Russell 2000 Growth Index & Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds Index
from Inception 10/31/03 to 6/30/12

Detailed Explanation of Quarterly and Fiscal Year Performance
The Short Version: The Fund’s poor quarterly performance was broad-based across companies and model styles (e.g. growth and GARP or growth at a reasonable price). The same thing is true for the fiscal year. Looking forward, we now have four high correlation spikes in our model calibration database, which we believe will help our relative performance, should macro-driven market spikes continue. We don’t believe that correlation spikes can continue indefinitely — historically, investors have always returned eventually to focus on company level economic health — but the macro environment could still continue over the coming fiscal year.
While our small-cap growth models continued successfully to identify stocks that show improvement in company economics, this has not translated into market beating performance. This is characteristic of macro-driven markets, as explained in the section by the same name on page 3.

Disclaimer
The views expressed here are exclusively those of Fund management. These views, including those related to market sectors or individual stocks, are not meant as investment advice and should not be considered predictive in nature. Any favorable (or unfavorable) description of a holding applies only as of the quarter-end, June 30, 2012, unless otherwise stated. Security positions can and do change thereafter. Discussions of historical performance do not guarantee and may not be indicative of future performance.
Market volatility can significantly impact short-term performance. The Fund is not an appropriate investment for short-term investors. Investments in small companies generally carry greater risk than is customarily associated with larger companies. This additional risk is attributable to a number of factors, including the relatively limited financial resources that are typically available to small companies and the fact that small companies often have comparatively limited product lines. In addition, the stock of small companies tends to be more volatile than the stock of large companies, particularly in the short term and particularly in the early stages of an economic or market downturn. Shareholders of the Fund, therefore, are taking on more risk than they would if they invested in the stock market as a whole.
Conclusion
Thank you for your continued investment in Small-Cap Growth Fund. We encourage your feedback; your reactions and concerns are important to us.
Sincerely,
The Investment Management Team

Small-Cap Value Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) | |  |
June 30, 2012
Dear Fellow Small-Cap Value Fund Shareholder,
For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 2.31%, outperforming our primary market benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index (-3.01%) and our peer benchmark, the Lipper Small-Cap Value Funds Index (-5.37%). We are pleased to have provided some “cushion” in a declining market.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 0.59%, outperforming our primary market benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index (-1.44%) and our peer benchmark, the Lipper Small-Cap Value Funds Index (-3.37%). We still have more ground to make up for the longer five-year and inception-to-date periods.
The table below presents our June quarter, one-year, five-year and inception-to-date financial results. See the next page for a graph of performance since inception.

Total return figures in the table above include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. The table above and the graph below do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
The Russell 2000 Value Index is an unmanaged index that consists of stocks in the Russell 2000 Index with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values with dividends reinvested. The Lipper Small-Cap Value Funds Index is an index of small-company, value-oriented funds compiled by Lipper, Inc. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Periods longer than one year are annualized.
According to data from Lipper, Inc. as of June 30, 2012, Small-Cap Value Fund ranked 78th of 328 small-cap value funds for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2012, 223rd of 234 over the last five years and 142nd of 163 such funds since inception in October, 2003.

Small-Cap Value Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
Small-Cap Value Fund vs. Russell 2000 Value Index & Lipper Small-Cap Value Funds Index
from Inception 10/31/03 to 6/30/12

Detailed Explanation of Quarterly Performance
The Short Version: Consumer Staples and Materials stocks helped, while Financials stocks hurt our relative performance.
The largest sector discrepancy between our Fund and the Russell 2000 Value Index was in the Financials sector, which made up a whopping 38% of the Index on average for the quarter. Our underweighting and stock selection in this sector cost us almost three-fourths of a percent in relative return. Fortunately, our strong stock picks in the Consumer Staples and Materials sectors more than made up the difference, adding nearly two percent to our relative return.
Detailed Explanation of Fiscal Year Performance
The Short Version: Stock picking in the Consumer Discretionary and Materials sectors carried the Fund for the fiscal year.
The Fund’s sector allocation was very much in line with the Russell 2000 Value Index for the fiscal year. Solid stock picking in the Consumer Discretionary and Materials sectors helped our relative performance by almost four percent. On the other end of the spectrum, weak stock picks in the heavily weighted Finance sector (35.5% of Fund net assets on average for the fiscal year) cost us about one-half percent in relative returns.

Disclaimer
The views expressed here are exclusively those of Fund management. These views, including those related to market sectors or individual stocks, are not meant as investment advice and should not be considered predictive in nature. Any favorable (or unfavorable) description of a holding applies only as of the quarter-end, June 30, 2012, unless otherwise stated. Security positions can and do change thereafter. Discussions of historical performance do not guarantee and may not be indicative of future performance.
Market volatility can significantly impact short-term performance. The Fund is not an appropriate investment for short-term investors. Investments in small companies generally carry greater risk than is customarily associated with larger companies. This additional risk is attributable to a number of factors, including the relatively limited financial resources that are typically available to small companies and the fact that small companies often have comparatively limited product lines. In addition, the stock of small companies tends to be more volatile than the stock of large companies, particularly in the short term and particularly in the early stages of an economic or market downturn.
Shareholders of the Fund, therefore, are taking on more risk than they would if they invested in the stock market as a whole.

Large-Cap Growth Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) | |  |
June 30, 2012
Dear Fellow Large-Cap Growth Fund Shareholder,
For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 3.96%, slightly outperforming our primary market benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index (-4.02%) and beating our peer benchmark, the Lipper Large-Cap Growth Funds Index (-6.32%). In a quarter containing the fourth high correlation spike since 2008 (see page 3), we are pleased with these results.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, our Fund appreciated 0.37%, trailing our primary market benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index (+5.76%), and our peer benchmark, the Lipper Large-Cap Growth Funds Index (+1.26%). The fiscal year contained two high correlation spikes, conditions in which our growth leaning Funds have generally not fared well. Additionally, compared to our primary benchmark, our more reasonable but still strong weighting of Apple Inc. (3.0% versus 6.4%) cost the Fund 1.6% of relative performance in the fiscal year.
The table below presents our June quarter, one-year, five-year and inception-to-date financial results. See the next page for a graph of performance since inception.

Performance figures quoted in the table above and graph below represent past performance and are no guarantee of future results. The table above and the graph below do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
The Russell 1000 Growth Index is an unmanaged index that consists of stocks in the Russell 1000 Index with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values with dividends reinvested. The Lipper Large-Cap Growth Funds Index is an index of large-company, growth-oriented funds compiled by Lipper, Inc. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Periods longer than one year are annualized.
According to data from Lipper, Inc. as of June 30, 2012, Large-Cap Growth Fund ranked 204th of 504 large-cap growth funds for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2012, 251st of 362 over the last five years and 231st of 270 such funds since inception in October, 2003. Lipper, Inc. is an independent mutual fund rating service that ranks funds in various fund categories by making comparative calculations using total returns.

Large-Cap Growth Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
Large-Cap Growth Fund vs. Russell 1000 Growth Index & Lipper Large-Cap Growth Funds Index
from Inception 10/31/03 to 6/30/12

Detailed Explanation of Quarterly Performance
The Short Version: In spite of a company size disadvantage costing the Fund about 0.8% of returns relative to our primary market benchmark, and in spite of the fourth high correlation spike of a macro driven economy, our Fund eked out a slight market-beating return. The Energy sector added the most (about one half percent) to relative returns for the quarter.
In any era where investors move to the largest, most stable stocks, our non-market cap weighting strategy puts our Fund at some disadvantage relative to our market benchmark, which is market cap weighted. A market cap weighted strategy means owning companies in proportion to their size. Over the long haul, our strategy has historically given us a slight tailwind. Not so in this quarter (where we had a 0.8% disadvantage in relative performance) and especially in the fiscal year, as highlighted below. Recent large cap dominance is not unrelated to the macro-driven market environment discussed on page 3.
Strong stock picking combined with our underweighting in the poorly performing Energy sector added over one half percent to our relative returns for the quarter.
Detailed Explanation of Fiscal Year Performance
The Short Version: In the unfavorable market environment of two high correlation spikes (see page 3), investors flocked to the safety of the market’s largest stocks. This cost our Fund 4.4% of returns relative to our primary market benchmark, accounting for most of our fiscal year underperformance.
Company size was the biggest factor in our Fund’s fiscal year underperformance relative to our primary market benchmark. Apple Inc. soared 74% and accounted for over two percentage points of our relative underperformance, since the company comprised approximately 6.4% of the Russell 1000 Growth Index and 3.4% of the Fund during the fiscal year. The Fund’s adviser believes that the index’s 6.4% weighting leads to company specific risk that is not commensurately rewarded with returns over the long haul. This phenomenon was just as true with Microsoft in the late 1990’s. It’s an approach that is great on the way up, but very painful on the way down; at any rate, it does not line up with Bridgeway’s careful management of company, industry, and sector specific risk. Overall, this company size difference between the Fund and the Index accounted for a whopping 4.4% fiscal year performance difference.

From a sector viewpoint, Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary stocks hurt performance the most. Consumer Staples and Industrials helped some, but not nearly enough to make up the difference.

Blue Chip 35 Index Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) | |  |
June 30, 2012
Dear Fellow Blue Chip 35 Index Fund Shareholder,
For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, our Fund declined 2.04%, outperforming our primary market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index (-2.75%), our peer benchmark, the Lipper Large-Cap Core Funds Index (-3.39%), but trailing the Russell Top 50 Index (-1.93%). We performed as expected in a period where the very largest caps had the highest returns.
For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012, the Fund appreciated 9.72%, outperforming our primary market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index (+5.45%) and our peer benchmark, the Lipper Large-Cap Core Funds Index (+2.65%), but trailing the Russell Top 50 Index (+11.44%). In line with our Fund’s design, we outperformed our primary market benchmark in a period where large companies dominated performance. Apple Inc.’s whopping 7.4% representation in the Russell Top 50 Index, almost twice Apple’s (still large) representation in our Fund, caused a “headwind” of approximately 1.4%. This accounts for most of our underperformance relative to the more concentrated and riskier Russell Top 50 Index.
The table below presents our June quarter, one-year, five-year, ten-year and inception-to-date financial results. See the next page for a graph of performance from inception.

Performance figures quoted in the table above and graph below represent past performance and are no guarantee of future results. Total return figures in the table above include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. The table above and the graph below do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
The S&P 500 Index is a broad-based, unmanaged measurement of changes in stock market conditions, based on the average of 500 widely held common stocks with dividends reinvested. The Russell Top 50 Index measures the performance of the largest companies in the Russell 3000 Index. It includes 50 of the largest securities, based on a combination of their market cap and current index membership, and represents approximately 40% of the total market capitalization of the Russell 3000 Index. The Bridgeway Ultra-Large 35 Index is an index comprised of very large, “blue chip” U.S. stocks, excluding tobacco; it is compiled by the adviser of the Fund. The Lipper Large-Cap Core Funds Index reflects the aggregate record of domestic large-cap core mutual funds as reported by Lipper, Inc. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Periods longer than one year are annualized.
According to data from Lipper, Inc. as of June 30, 2012, Blue-Chip 35 Index Fund ranked 23rd of 1,042 large-cap core funds for the twelve months ending June 30, 2012, 105th of 807 over the last five years, 185th of 550 over the last ten years, and 59th of 259 since inception in July 1997. Lipper, Inc. is an independent mutual fund rating service that ranks funds in various fund categories by making comparative calculations using total returns.

Blue Chip 35 Index Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
Blue Chip 35 Index Fund vs. S&P 500 Index, Russell Top 50 Index*, Bridgeway Ultra-Large 35 Index & Lipper Large-Cap Core Funds Index from Inception 7/31/97 to 6/30/12

* | The Russell Top 50 Index began on12/31/2001, and the line graph for the Index begins at the same value as the Fund on that date. |
Quarterly and Fiscal Year Performance by Company Size:
The Short Version: Ultra-large stocks were the place to be for the quarter and the year as they dominated nearly all other size stocks. Relative to our primary market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, our Fund’s advantages over the last year included both its ultra-large size and our less risky “roughly equal” strategy of weighting stocks. The latter tends to help in choppy markets such as the last year.
As demonstrated in the table below, ultra-large or CRSP 1 decile stocks outperformed all other market cap stocks, with the exception of ultra-small or CRSP 10 stocks, for the quarter. This gave us a sizeable edge over the S&P 500 Index; almost 22% of its holdings fell outside the ultra-large stock category.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, ultra-large stocks outperformed all other deciles of market caps by at least seven and three-fourths percent. This market condition allowed us to rank as high as we did in the Lipper Large-Cap Core Funds category for the year as shown above. However, it is also one of the conditions where our equal weighting philosophy hinders performance, as demonstrated by our underperformance versus the market-cap weighted Russell Top 50 Index.

Blue Chip 35 Index Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
1 | Performance figures are as of the period ended June 30, 2012. The CRSP Cap-Based Portfolio Indexes are unmanaged indexes of the publicly traded U.S. stocks with dividends reinvested, grouped by market capitalization, as reported by the Center for Research in Security Prices. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. |
Apart from a size advantage, our quarterly rebalancing of company weights, what we call a “roughly equal weighting strategy,” gave us a performance boost in the fiscal year. This strategy has a “buy low, sell high” feel to it. Historically, over the nearly 15 year history of our Fund — and not in every quarter or year — it has allowed our Fund to keep up with, or slightly exceed, the returns of the S&P 500 with less risk.
The poster child for this strategy in fiscal year 2012 is Occidental Petroleum. Occidental declined a whopping 30.90% in the September quarter, much worse than the 10.79% decline of the Fund overall. Following our roughly equal weighting strategy, we added to this position, bringing it back up near the Fund average weight in the downturn. If it weren’t for the disciplined and mechanical nature of this Fund rebalancing, it might take a lot of “guts” to do so. But the discipline of our investment process ensures that we take this kind of emotion out of the process. It worked particularly well in the December quarter, as Occidental was our single best performer, up 31.67%. However, after this nice run-up, our conservative process had us trimming Occidental back toward our roughly equal weighting strategy. Our trim was not too badly timed, as Occidental followed energy prices downward over the next quarter. Had we held Occidental without adding and trimming because of our equal weighting philosophy (what most index funds do), the stock, which declined 15.73% for the fiscal year, would have contributed a negative 0.98% to the Fund. Occidental’s actual contribution to return was a negative 0.27%. This 0.71% difference may not seem like a lot, but it is more than four times the entire operating expenses of our Fund.
Here’s the full list of our companies’ contribution to returns for the fiscal year:

Managed Volatility Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) | |  |
June 30, 2012
Dear Fellow Managed Volatility Fund Shareholder:
For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, Managed Volatility Fund returned 0.00%, outperforming our primary market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index (-2.75%), our peer benchmark, the Lipper Balanced Funds Index (-1.98%), but trailing the fixed income only Bloomberg/ EFFAS U.S. Government 1-3 Year Total Return Bond Index (+0.21%). It was a down quarter for the broad stock market, and we are pleased to have created a sizable cushion in a choppy, declining market.
For the full fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Fund appreciated 3.74%, trailing our primary market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index (+5.45%), but capturing 69% of the Index return — a favorable result. Our goal is to capture 40% or more of the market’s upside over the long term. Our short-term risk this quarter — a very short timeframe to measure it — was just over 50% (as measured by the standard deviation of monthly returns), compared to our goal of 40%.
Our hybrid Fund invests in both equity and fixed-income securities, while incorporating an options strategy designed to produce a conservative, lower-volatility Fund. During very favorable equity market conditions, the Fund often under-performs many of the more aggressive benchmarks. On the other hand, when stocks struggle and investors seek the safe haven of more conservative bonds, Managed Volatility Fund tends to perform better than the equity-only indexes. Thus, our Fund has generally performed according to our design over the last year.
The table below presents our June quarter, one-year, five-year, ten-year and inception-to-date financial results. See the next page for a graph of performance since inception.

Performance figures quoted in the table above and graph below represent past performance and are no guarantee of future results. Total return figures in the table above include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. The table above and the graph below do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
The S&P 500 Index is a broad-based, unmanaged measurement of changes in stock market conditions, based on the average of 500 widely held common stocks with dividends reinvested. The Bloomberg/ EFFAS U.S. Government 1-3 year Total Return Bond Index is a transparent benchmark for the total return of the 1-3 year U.S. Government bond market. The Lipper Balanced Funds Index is an index of balanced funds compiled by Lipper, Inc. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Periods longer than one year are annualized.
According to data from Lipper, Inc. as of June 30, 2012, the Managed Volatility Fund ranked 81st of 494 mixed-asset target allocation moderate funds for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, 297th of 402 over the past five years, 180th of 199 over the past ten years and 118th of 171 funds since inception on June 30, 2001.

Managed Volatility Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
According to data from Morningstar as of June 30, 2012, the Managed Volatility Fund ranked 21st of 179 long-short funds for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, 15th out of 55 funds over the past five years and 9th of 19 funds over the last ten years. Morningstar ranks funds in various fund categories by making comparative calculations using total returns.
Managed Volatility Fund vs. S&P 500 Index, Bloomberg/EFFAS Bond Index & Lipper Balanced Funds Index
from Inception 6/30/01 to 6/30/12

Detailed Explanation of Quarterly Performance
The Short Version: The stock portion of our Fund hurt our relative returns, but the options premiums and fixed income portions of our Fund helped us beat the returns of the S&P 500 Index.
Our three most heavily weighted sectors, Energy, Information Technology and Industrials all performed poorly and, combined with our slight overweighting versus the Index in each one, they cost us some relative performance. We were helped by having a little higher percentage of stock holdings in the best performing ultra-large, or decile 1 stocks in the Fund versus the S&P 500 Index. As is generally inherent in a relatively flat market, few options were exercised, and the premiums we received from our covered call and put options boosted our returns. The fixed income portion of our Fund is mainly invested in U.S. Treasuries, which always cushions negative returns in a down market such as this quarter.
Detailed Explanation of Fiscal Year Performance
The Short Version: The Information Technology sector helped the most for the fiscal year, and the fixed income portion of the Fund reduced volatility.
For the fiscal year, Information Technology, Consumer Staples and Health Care stocks helped our performance the most. Energy and Consumer Discretionary stocks cost us some returns. The fixed income portion of our Fund performed in line with our strategy, which is to keep our returns less volatile than the Index.

Disclaimer
The views expressed here are exclusively those of Fund management. These views, including those related to market sectors or individual stocks, are not meant as investment advice and should not be considered predictive in nature. Any favorable (or unfavorable) description of a holding applies only as of the quarter-end, June 30, 2012, unless otherwise stated. Security positions can and do change thereafter. Discussions of historical performance do not guarantee and may not be indicative of future performance.
Market volatility can significantly affect short-term performance. The Fund is not an appropriate investment for short-term investors. Investments in small companies and investments in foreign companies within this multi-cap fund generally carry greater risk than are customarily associated with larger, domestic companies. In addition, the stock of small companies and investments in foreign securities tend to be more volatile than the stock of large, domestic companies. The Fund’s use of options, futures, and leverage can magnify the risk of loss in an unfavorable market, and the Fund’s use of short-sale positions can, in theory, expose shareholders to unlimited loss. The Fund uses an option writing strategy in which the Fund may sell covered calls or secured put options. Up to 75% of Fund assets may be invested in options. Options are subject to special risks and

may not fully protect the Fund against declines in the value of its stocks. In addition, an option writing strategy limits the upside profit potential normally associated with stocks. The Fund’s fixed-income holdings are subject to three types of risk. Interest rate risk is the chance that bond prices overall will decline as interest rates rise. Credit risk is the chance a bond issuer will fail to pay interest and principal. Prepayment risk is the chance a mortgage-backed bond issuer will repay a higher yielding bond, resulting in a lower paying yield.
Conclusion
Thank you for your continued investment in Managed Volatility Fund. We encourage your feedback; your reactions and concerns are extremely important to us.
Sincerely,
The Investment Management Team

1. Organization:
Bridgeway Funds, Inc. (“Bridgeway” or the “Company”) was organized as a Maryland corporation on October 19, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company.
Bridgeway is organized as a series fund, with 11 investment funds as of June 30, 2012 (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”): Aggressive Investors 1, Ultra-Small Company, Ultra-Small Company Market, Small-Cap Momentum, Small-Cap Growth, Small-Cap Value, Large-Cap Growth, Blue Chip 35 Index and Managed Volatility Funds are presented in this report. The Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund and the Omni Small-Cap Value Fund are included in a separate report.
Bridgeway is authorized to issue 1,987,343,706 shares of common stock at $0.001 per share. As of June 30, 2012, 100,000,000 shares have been classified into the Aggressive Investors 1 Fund. 130,000,000 shares have been classified into the Blue Chip 35 Index Fund. 15,000,000 shares have been classified into the Ultra-Small Company Fund. 100,000,000 shares each have been classified into the Ultra-Small Company Market, Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value, Omni Small-Cap Value, Small-Cap Momentum, Small-Cap Growth, Small-Cap Value and Large-Cap Growth Funds. 50,000,000 shares have been classified into the Managed Volatility Fund. All shares outstanding currently represent Class N shares.
The Ultra-Small Company Fund is open to existing investors (direct only).
All of the Funds are no-load, diversified funds.
The Aggressive Investors 1 Fund seeks to exceed the stock market total return (primarily through capital appreciation) at a level of total risk roughly equal to that of the stock market over longer periods of time (three years or more).
The Ultra-Small Company, Ultra-Small Company Market, Small-Cap Momentum, Small-Cap Growth, Small-Cap Value and Large-Cap Growth Funds seek to provide a long-term total return of capital, primarily through capital appreciation.
The Blue Chip 35 Index Fund seeks to provide long-term total return of capital, primarily through capital appreciation but also some income.
The Managed Volatility Fund seeks to provide a high current return with short-term risk less than or equal to 40% of the stock market.
Bridgeway Capital Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”) is the investment adviser for all of the Funds.
On May 30, 2012, the shareholders of the Aggressive Investors 2 Fund and the Micro-Cap Limited Fund (the “Merged Funds”) approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) which provided for the transfer of all of the assets of the Merged Funds, listed in the table below, for shares of the respective acquiring funds, listed in the table below, and assumption of the liabilities of the Merged Funds. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of shares on June 4, 2012. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by the Aggressive Investors 1 Fund and the Ultra-Small Company Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Aggressive Investors 2 Fund and the Micro-Cap Limited Fund was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of the Aggressive Investors 1 Fund’s and the Ultra-Small Company Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Merged Fund | | Shares | | | Acquiring Fund | | Shares | | | Value | |
Aggressive Investors 2 | | | 9,545,121 | | | Aggressive Investors 1 | | | 3,846,030 | | | | $118,655,804 | |
Micro-Cap Limited | | | 3,111,172 | | | Ultra-Small Company | | | 734,641 | | | | 18,444,305 | |
The Board of Directors approved a reduction in the maximum expense ratio for the Aggressive Investors 1 Fund from 1.80% to 1.75% to match that of the Aggressive Investors 2 Fund. The Board also approved a reduction in the maximum expense ratio for the Ultra-Small Company Fund from 2.00% to 1.85% to match that of the Micro-Cap Limited Fund.

Assuming the acquisition had been completed on July 1, 2011, the Aggressive Investor 1 Fund’s results of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 would have been as follows:
| | | | | | |
Net Investment Income | | $ | 2,784,372 | | | (a) |
Net Realized and Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments | | | (6,084,694 | ) | | (b) |

| | | | | | |
(a) | $1,789,938 as reported in the Statement of Operations, plus $2,074,093 Net Investment Income from Aggressive Investors 2 Fund pre-merger, less $1,079,659 for pro-forma elimination of a portion of the performance fee adjustment and other expenses. |

Assuming the acquisition had been completed on July 1, 2011, the Ultra-Small Company Fund’s results of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 would have been as follows:
| | | | | | |
Net Investment Income | | $ | 402,629 | | | (a) |

(b) | $(3,960,486) as reported in the Statement of Operations, plus $(732,175) Net Realized and Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments from Micro-Cap Limited Fund pre-merger. |
Because both the Merged Funds, Aggressive Investors 2 Fund and Micro-Cap Limited Fund, and the acquiring funds, Aggressive Investors 1 Fund and Ultra-Small Company Fund, sold and redeemed shares throughout the period, it is not practicable to provide pro-forma information on a per-share basis.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following summary of significant accounting policies, followed in the preparation of the financial statements of the Funds, are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Securities, Options, Futures and Other Investments Valuation Other than options, portfolio securities that are principally traded on a national securities exchange are valued at their last sale price on the principal exchange on which they are traded prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), on each day the NYSE is open for business. If there is no closing price on the NYSE, the portfolio security will be valued using a composite price, which is defined as the last price for the security on any exchange. Portfolio securities other than options that are principally traded on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). In the absence of recorded sales on their home exchange, or NOCP, in the case of NASDAQ traded securities, the security will be valued as follows: bid prices for long positions and ask prices for short positions.
Short-term fixed income securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Options are valued at the close if there is trading volume and if there is no trading volume, the bid on long positions and ask on the short positions. Other investments for which no sales are reported are valued at the latest bid price in accordance with the pricing policy established by the Board of Directors.
Investments in open-end registered investment companies and closed-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value (“NAV”) per share.
| | |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) | | 
|
June 30, 2012
Investments in closed-end registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.
When market quotations are not readily available or when events occur that make established valuation methods unreliable, securities of the Funds may be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Directors. The valuation assigned to fair valued securities for purposes of calculating the Funds’ NAVs may differ from the security’s most recent closing market price and from the prices used by other mutual funds to calculate their NAVs.
The inputs and valuation techniques used to determine the value of a Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:
— | | Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets |
Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equity securities. The Funds do not adjust the quoted price for such investments, even in situations where the Funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
— | | Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayments speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include certain U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds and less liquid listed equity securities. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.
Money market fund investments consist of mutual funds which invest primarily in securities that are valued at amortized cost, a Level 2 investment. Therefore, the money market funds are classified as Level 2 investments. The Funds’ total return swap values are derived by applying observable inputs to the outstanding notional values and are therefore classified as Level 2 investments also.
— | | Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including a Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the Funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the Funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the Funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the Funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting value and therefore the Funds’ results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments. A summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of June 30, 2012 is included with each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
Effective January 1, 2012, the Funds adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04 “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”).” ASU No. 2011-04 is intended to result in common fair value and measurement requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU No. 2011-04 requires reporting entities to disclose quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, ASU No. 2011-04 requires reporting entities to make disclosures about amounts and reasons for all transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. Level 3 securities are not significant to the Funds. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 had no impact on net assets of the Funds.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) | | 
|
June 30, 2012
The Funds’ policy is to recognize transfers into, and transfers out of, each level of hierarchy as of the beginning of the reporting period. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 in any of the Funds. Details regarding transfers into, and transfers out of, Level 3 can be found at the end of each Schedule of Investments for Funds that hold Level 3 securities.
Securities Lending Upon lending its securities to third parties, each Fund receives compensation in the form of fees. A Fund also continues to receive dividends on the securities loaned. The loans are secured by collateral at least equal to the fair value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. Gain or loss in the fair value of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan will be for the account of a Fund. Each Fund has the right under the lending agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand. Additionally, a Fund does not have the right to sell or re-pledge collateral received in the form of securities unless the borrower goes into default. The risks to a Fund of securities lending are that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or return the securities when due.
As of June 30, 2012, the Funds had securities on loan and related collateral with values shown below:
| | | | | | | | |
Bridgeway Fund | | Securities on Loan Value | | | Value of Collateral | |
| | | | | | | | |
Aggressive Investors 1 | | | $ 2,632,710 | | | | $ 2,621,800 | |
Ultra-Small Company | | | 9,775,783 | | | | 9,989,323 | |
Ultra-Small Company Market | | | 40,200,979 | | | | 40,676,066 | |
Small-Cap Momentum | | | 115,744 | | | | 116,362 | |
Small-Cap Growth | | | 3,103,705 | | | | 3,056,037 | |
Small-Cap Value | | | 4,232,950 | | | | 4,313,486 | |
Managed Volatility | | | 19,054 | | | | 19,688 | |
It is each Fund’s policy to obtain additional collateral from, or return excess collateral to, the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than that required under the lending contract. Aggressive Investors 1 and Small-Cap Growth Funds obtained additional collateral on the following business day after fiscal year end to ensure the securities on loan were adequately collateralized. As of June 30, 2012 the collateral consisted of an institutional money market fund.
Use of Estimates in Financial Statements In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties The Funds provide for various investment options, including stocks and call and put options. Such investments are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the risks involved, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect shareholders’ account values and the amounts reported in the financial statements.
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date, the date the order to buy or sell is executed. Realized gains and losses are computed on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date. Particularly related to the Managed Volatility Fund, discounts and premiums are accreted/amortized on the effective interest method.
Fund expenses that are not series-specific are allocated to each series based upon its relative proportion of net assets to the Funds’ total net assets or other appropriate basis.

The derivative instruments outstanding as of June 30, 2012, as disclosed in the Notes to the Financial Statements, and the amounts of realized and changes in unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments during the period, as disclosed in the Statement of Operations, serve as indicators of the volume of derivative activity for the Funds.
Futures Contracts The Funds may purchase or sell financial futures contracts to hedge cash positions, manage market risk, and to dampen volatility in line with investment objectives. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a financial instrument at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into such a contract, a Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash or U.S. government securities equal to the minimum “initial margin” requirements of the exchange on which the futures contract is traded. The contract amount reflects the extent of a Fund’s exposure in these financial instruments. A Fund’s participation in the futures markets involves certain risks, including imperfect correlation between movements in the price of futures contracts and movements in the price of the securities hedged or used for cover. Pursuant to a contract, such Fund agrees to receive from, or pay to, the broker an amount of cash equal to the fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as “variation margin” and are recorded by a Fund as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When a contract is closed, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. With futures, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Funds since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default. As of June 30, 2012, the Funds had no open futures contracts.
Options The Aggressive Investors 1 Fund may buy and sell calls and puts to increase or decrease the Fund’s exposure to stock market risk or for purposes of diversification of risk. The Managed Volatility Fund may buy and sell calls and puts to reduce the Fund’s volatility and provide some cash flow. An option is a contract conveying a right to buy or sell a financial instrument at a specified price during a stipulated period. The premium paid by a Fund for the purchase of a call or a put option is included in such Fund’s Schedule of Investments as an investment and subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) | |

June 30, 2012
current market value of the option. When a Fund writes a call or a put option, an amount equal to the premium received by such Fund is included in its Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability and is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written. If an option which a Fund has written either expires on its stipulated expiration date, or if such Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, that Fund realizes a gain (or a loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such options is extinguished. If a call option that a Fund has written is assigned, such Fund realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale are increased by the premium originally received. If a put option that a Fund has written is assigned, the amount of the premium originally received reduces the cost of the security that such Fund purchased upon exercise of the option. Buying calls increases a Fund’s exposure to the underlying security to the extent of any premium paid. Buying puts on a stock market index tends to limit a Fund’s exposure to a stock market decline. All options purchased by the Funds were listed on exchanges and considered liquid positions with readily available market quotes.
Covered Call Options and Secured Puts The Aggressive Investors 1 and Managed Volatility Funds may write call options on a covered basis, that is, a Fund will own the underlying security, or a Fund may write secured puts. The principal reason for writing covered calls and secured puts on a security is to attempt to realize income through the receipt of premiums. The option writer has, in return for the premium, given up the opportunity for profit from a substantial price increase in the underlying security so long as the obligation as a writer continues, but has retained the risk of loss should the price of the security decline. All options were listed on exchanges and considered liquid positions with readily available market quotes. Transactions in options written during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 are as follows:

The Aggressive Investors 1 Fund had no transactions in written options during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.
Swaps. Each Fund may enter into total return swaps. Total return swaps are agreements that provide a Fund with a return based on the performance of an underlying asset, in exchange for fee payments to a counterparty based on a specified rate. The difference in the value of these income streams is recorded daily by the Funds and is settled in cash monthly.
The fee paid by a Fund will typically be determined by multiplying the face value of the swap agreement by an agreed upon interest rate. In addition, if the underlying asset declines in value over the term of the swap, a Fund would also be required to pay the dollar value of that decline to the counterparty. Total return swaps could result in losses if the underlying asset does not perform as anticipated by the Adviser. A Fund may use its own NAV as the underlying asset in a total return swap. This strategy serves to reduce cash drag (the impact of cash on a Fund’s overall return) by replacing it with the impact of market exposure based upon a Fund’s own investment holdings. The following total return swaps were open as of June 30, 2012:

Indemnification Under the Company’s organizational documents, the Funds’ officers, directors, employees and agents are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts.
3. Management Fees, Other Related Party Transactions and Contingencies:
The Funds have entered into management agreements with the Adviser. As compensation for the advisory services rendered, facilities furnished, and expenses borne by the Adviser, the Funds pay the Adviser a fee pursuant to each Fund’s management agreement, as described below.
Aggressive Investors 1: A total advisory fee is paid by the Fund to the Adviser that is comprised of a Base Fee and a Performance Adjustment. The Base Fee equals the Base Fee Rate times the average daily net assets of the Fund. The Base Fee Rate is based on the following annual rates: 0.90% of the first $250 million of the Fund’s average daily net assets, 0.875% of the next $250 million, 0.85% of the next $500 million and 0.80% of any excess over $1 billion.
The Performance Adjustment equals 4.67% times the difference in cumulative total return between the Fund and the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index with dividends reinvested (hereinafter “Index”) over a rolling five-year performance period. The Performance Adjustment Rate varies from a minimum of –0.70% to a maximum of +0.70%. However, the Performance Adjustment Rate is zero if the difference between the cumulative Fund performance and the Index performance is less than or equal to 2%.
Ultra-Small Company: The Fund pays management fees based on the following annual rates: 0.90% of the first $250 million of the Fund’s average daily net assets, 0.875% of the next $250 million and 0.85% of any excess over $500 million. The management fees are computed daily and are payable monthly. However, during any period that the Fund’s net assets range from $27,500,000 to $55,000,000, the advisory fee will be determined as if the Fund had $55,000,000 under management. This is limited to a maximum annualized expense ratio of 1.49% of average net assets.
Ultra-Small Company Market: The Fund’s management fee is a flat 0.50% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets, computed daily and payable monthly.
Small-Cap Momentum: The Fund’s management fee is a flat 0.55% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets, computed daily and payable monthly.
Small-Cap Growth and Small-Cap Value: A total advisory fee is paid by each Fund to the Adviser that is comprised of a Base Fee and a Performance Adjustment. The Base Fee equals the Base Fee Rate times the average daily net assets of the Fund. The Base Fee Rate is based on the annual rate of 0.60% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
The Performance Adjustment equals 0.33% times the difference in cumulative total return between the Fund and the Russell 2000 Growth Index for Small-Cap Growth Fund and the Russell 2000 Value Index for Small-Cap Value Fund, with dividends

reinvested (hereinafter “Index”) over a rolling five-year performance period. The Performance Adjustment Rate varies from a minimum of -0.05% to a maximum of +0.05%. However, the Performance Adjustment Rate is zero if the difference between the cumulative Fund’s performance and the Index performance is less than or equal to 2%.
Large-Cap Growth: A total advisory fee is paid by the Fund to the Adviser that is comprised of a Base Fee and a Performance Adjustment.

The Performance Adjustment equals 0.33% times the difference in cumulative total return between the Fund and the Russell 1000 Growth Index, with dividends reinvested (hereinafter “Index”) over a rolling five-year performance period. The Performance Adjustment Rate varies from a minimum of -0.05% to a maximum of +0.05%. However, the Performance Adjustment Rate is zero if the difference between the cumulative Fund’s performance and the Index performance is less than or equal to 2%.
Blue Chip 35 Index: The Fund’s management fee is a flat 0.08% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets, computed daily and payable monthly.

The Adviser entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with Bridgeway, pursuant to which the Adviser provides various administrative services to the Funds including, but not limited to: (i) supervising and managing various aspects of the Funds’ business and affairs; (ii) selecting, overseeing and/or coordinating activities with other service providers to the Funds; (iii) providing reports to the Board of Directors as requested from time to time; (iv) assisting and/or reviewing amendments and updates to the Funds’ registration statement and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”); (v) providing certain shareholder services; (vi) providing administrative support in connection with meetings of the Board of Directors; and (vii) providing certain record-keeping services.

One director of Bridgeway, John Montgomery, is an owner and director of the Adviser. Another director of Bridgeway, Michael Mulcahy, is an executive and director of the Adviser. Under the 1940 Act definitions, each is considered to be an “affiliated person” of the Adviser and an “interested person” of the Adviser and of Bridgeway.

Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, capital losses incurred by these Funds after June 30, 2011 will not be subject to expiration and will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses. In addition, such losses must be utilized prior to the losses incurred in the years preceding enactment. As a result of the mergers described in Note 1, pre-merger capital loss carryovers are subject to limitations under Internal Revenue Code Sections 381-384. As of the date of the merger the Aggressive Investors 1 Fund had accumulated capital losses of $62,647,229 which are subject to limitation and the Micro-Cap Limited Fund had accumulated losses of $8,287,942 which are subject to limitation.

The difference between book and tax components of net assets and the resulting reclassifications were primarily a result of the differing book/tax treatment of the deduction of equalization debits for tax purposes and investments in swaps, partnerships, real estate investment trusts, business development companies, grantor trusts, passive foreign investment companies (PFICs) and adjustments resulting from fund mergers.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Management has analyzed each Fund’s tax positions and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in each Fund’s financial statements. The Funds are not aware of any tax position for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Each Fund’s federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
7. Line of Credit
Bridgeway established a line of credit agreement (“Facility”) with The Bank of New York Mellon effective November 5, 2010. The Facility is for temporary or emergency purposes, such as to provide liquidity for shareholder redemptions, and is cancellable by either party. Unless cancelled earlier, the Facility shall be held available until November 2, 2012. Advances under the Facility are limited to $10,000,000 in total for all Funds and advances to each Fund shall not exceed certain limits set forth in the credit agreement, including but not limited to, the maximum amount a Fund is permitted to borrow under the 1940 Act.
The Funds incur a commitment fee of 0.05% per annum on the unused portion of the Facility and interest expense to the extent of amounts borrowed under the Facility. Interest is based on the higher of (a) the Federal Funds rate, (b) the Overnight Eurodollar Rate, or (c) the One-month Eurodollar Rate, plus 1.25%. The commitment fees are payable quarterly in arrears and are allocated to all participating Funds. Interest expense is charged directly to a Fund based upon actual amounts borrowed by such Fund.

The fee is charged for the benefit of the remaining shareholders and will be paid to the appropriate Fund to help offset transaction costs. The fee is accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital.
9. Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Funds and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

4. Approval of Investment Management Agreement
The Bridgeway Funds, Inc.’s (the “Company”) management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with its investment adviser, Bridgeway Capital Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”), on behalf of each of the Company’s funds (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) must be approved for an initial term no greater than two years and renewed at least annually thereafter (i) by the vote of the Directors or by a vote of the shareholders of each Fund and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the Directors who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” of any party thereto (the “Independent Directors”), cast in person at a meeting called specifically for the purpose of voting on such approval.
The Board of Directors (the “Board”) has five regularly scheduled meetings each year and takes into account throughout the year matters bearing on the Management Agreement. The Board and its standing committees also consider at each meeting factors that are relevant to the annual renewal of each Fund’s Management Agreement, including the services and support provided to each Fund and its shareholders.
On June 1, 2012, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, met in person (the “Meeting”) with the Adviser, Company counsel, independent legal counsel (“Independent Legal Counsel”) to the Independent Directors and others to give consideration to information bearing on the continuation of the Management Agreement with respect to the following Funds: Aggressive Investors 1 Fund, Ultra-Small Company Fund, Ultra-Small Company Market Fund, Small-Cap Growth Fund, Small-Cap Value Fund, Large-Cap Growth Fund, Blue Chip 35 Index Fund, Managed Volatility Fund and Small-Cap Momentum Fund. In preparation for the Meeting, the Independent Directors requested that the Adviser provide specific information relevant to their consideration of the renewal of each Fund’s Management Agreement. In response to that request, the Independent Directors were furnished with a wide variety of information with respect to each Fund, including:
| — | | investment performance over various time periods and the fees and expenses of each Fund as compared to a comparable group of funds (the “peer funds”); |
| — | | the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser to each Fund, including investment advisory and administrative services; |
| — | | actual management fees paid by each Fund to the Adviser; |
| — | | the Adviser’s costs of providing services to each Fund and the profitability of the Adviser derived from its relationship with each Fund; |
| — | | the extent to which economies of scale may be present and if so, the degree to which they would be shared with the Fund’s shareholders; |
| | |
OTHER INFORMATION (continued) | | 
|
June 30, 2012 (Unaudited)
| — | | any “fall out” or ancillary benefits accruing to the Adviser as a result of its relationship with each Fund; and |
| — | | information regarding the structure of the advisory fees, the method of computing fees and the frequency of payment of fees and any expense limitation or fee waiver arrangements for each Fund. |
The Independent Directors also met telephonically with Independent Legal Counsel prior to the Meeting to review and discuss the information provided by the Adviser and, as a result of the telephonic meeting, requested certain additional information from the Adviser. Moreover, the Independent Directors also met in executive session with Independent Legal Counsel to consider the continuation of the Management Agreement outside the presence of management during the Meeting.
In considering the aforementioned information, the Independent Directors took into account management style, investment strategies and prevailing market conditions. Furthermore, in evaluating the Management Agreement, the Directors also reviewed information provided by the Adviser concerning the following:
| — | | the terms of the Management Agreement, including the services performed by the Adviser in managing each Fund in accordance with each Fund’s investment objectives, policies and restrictions and how those services and fees differ from the Adviser’s services to non-mutual fund accounts, to the extent applicable; |
| — | | the services provided by the Adviser under a separate Administrative Services Agreement and the fact that those services were provided at approximately cost to the Funds; |
| — | | the Adviser’s specialized skills and experience in statistical analysis and investment management and trading; |
| — | | the Adviser’s personnel, staffing levels and the time and attention the Adviser’s personnel devote to the management of the Funds as compared to other Adviser clients; |
| — | | the Adviser’s risk assessment and risk management capabilities; |
| — | | the fact that the Adviser continues to use no soft dollars; and |
| — | | the financial condition and stability of the Adviser, including supplemental financial information provided upon the request of the Independent Directors and the fact that at the current time, the Adviser is operating each Fund at a loss. |
After extensive discussion and consideration among themselves, and with the Adviser, Company counsel and Independent Legal Counsel, including during an executive session with Independent Legal Counsel, the Independent Directors concluded the following:
| — | | the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser’s services were appropriate and consistent with the terms of the Management Agreement and mutual fund industry norms; |
| — | | the investment performance of each Fund was either acceptable or better or subject to reasonable steps by the Adviser to monitor or address underperformance; |
| — | | the management fees and overall expense levels, after taking into account any applicable management fee and expense waivers, were reasonable; |
| — | | the costs of services provided by the Adviser to each Fund were fair and reasonable in relation to the services and benefits provided to each Fund; and |
| — | | the shareholders of each Fund have appropriately benefitted from economies of scale, either directly through expense caps, fee waivers and/or breakpoints, or were not missing the opportunity to benefit from economies of scale in view of asset sizes and fee structures. |
| | |

June 30, 2012 (Unaudited)
In summary, the Independent Directors renewed the Management Agreement with respect to each Fund. The Independent Directors valued access by the Funds to the Adviser’s proprietary statistically driven investment management services and favorable fee levels, considered the steps the Adviser was taking to address underperformance of certain Funds and concluded that renewal of the Management Agreement was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders. Based on all of the information presented, the Board, including a majority of its Independent Directors, determined on a Fund-by-Fund basis that the fees charged under the Management Agreement are reasonable in relation to the services that are provided under the Management Agreement. In view of the broad scope and variety of factors and information, the Directors did not identify any single factor as being of paramount importance in reaching their conclusions and determinations to approve the continuance of the Management Agreement for each Fund. Rather, the approval determinations were made on the basis of each Director’s business judgment after consideration of all of the factors taken in their entirety.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES | | 
|
June 30, 2012 (Unaudited) | | |
As a shareholder of a Fund, you will incur no transaction costs from such Fund, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, on reinvested dividends or on other distributions. There are no exchange fees. Shareholders are subject to redemption fees on the Ultra-Small Company Market and Small-Cap Momentum Funds under certain circumstances. However, as a shareholder of a Fund, you will incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested on January 1, 2012 and held until June 30, 2012.
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 “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Fund and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
The expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight ongoing Fund costs only. 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, because other funds may also have transaction costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees or exchange fees.

Market Review
The positive momentum that carried the market at the end of 2011 and through the first quarter of 2012 came to an end in the second quarter. U.S. stocks were volatile during the quarter with most of the losses coming in May. Broad market returns for the quarter were down 3.15% as represented by the Russell 3000 Index. Value stocks generally outperformed growth stocks with large-cap value stocks leading the way as represented by the Russell 1000 Value index, down 2.20%.
For the fiscal year period ended June 30, 2012, broad market stocks were up 3.84% as represented by the Russell 3000 Index. Returns were mixed among value and growth stocks and across the market cap spectrum. Large-cap growth stocks, as represented by the Russell 1000 Growth Index, led the way, up 5.76%.
The following table presents returns for broad market, small-cap, mid-cap, and large-cap stocks as represented by various style-based Russell Indexes. Size (market capitalization) and style (value/growth) are among the key factors that drive differences in returns among U.S. stocks.

Omni Small-Cap Value Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
Detailed Explanation of Quarterly Performance
The Omni Small-Cap Value Fund is designed to capture the returns of the small-cap value asset class through broad diversification of small company and value stocks. This approach is sometimes referred to as “passive, asset class investing.” As of June 30, 2012, we held 625 such stocks in a market cap weighted style. We make no attempt to track any public index in either performance or statistics.
The Fund returns were driven by the fact that returns for small stocks were negative across the board. Declines were broadly spread across almost all sectors. The design tilt towards smaller and deeper value stocks resulted in heavy underweighting in the strong performing Financials sector, which hurt the Fund’s performance for the quarter relative to the Russell 2000 Value Index.
Detailed Explanation of Fiscal Period Performance (8/31/11 - 6/30/12)
Our smaller-cap dominance and deeper value bent helped the performance for the fiscal year. The design tilt towards smaller and deeper value stocks resulted in heavy underweighting in the Financials sector, the best performing sector, which hurt the Fund’s return relative to the Russell 2000 Value Index.

Omni Small-Cap Value Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
Disclaimer
The views expressed here are exclusively those of Fund management. These views, including those related to market sectors or individual stocks, are not meant as investment advice and should not be considered predictive in nature. Any favorable (or unfavorable) description of a holding applies only as of the quarter-end, June 30, 2012, unless otherwise stated. Security positions can and do change thereafter. Discussions of historical performance do not guarantee and may not be indicative of future performance.
Market volatility can significantly impact short-term performance. The Fund is not an appropriate investment for short-term investors. Investments in small companies generally carry greater risk than is customarily associated with larger companies. This additional risk is attributable to a number of factors, including the relatively limited financial resources that are typically available to small companies and the fact that small companies often have comparatively limited product lines. In addition, the stock of small companies tends to be more volatile than the stock of large companies, particularly in the short term and particularly in the early stages of an economic or market downturn. Shareholders of the Fund, therefore, are taking on more risk than they would if they invested in the stock market as a whole.
Conclusion
Thank you for your continued investment in Omni Small-Cap Value Fund. We encourage your feedback; your reactions and concerns are important to us.
Sincerely,
The Investment Management Team

For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, total returns were -6.42% for the Fund and -3.01% for the Russell 2000 Value Index. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, total returns were -5.41% for the Fund and -1.44% for the Russell 2000 Value Index.
The table below presents our June quarter, one-year and inception-to-date financial results. See below for a graph of performance since inception.

Performance figures quoted in the table above and graph below represent past performance and are no guarantee of future results. Total return figures in the table above include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. The table above and the graph below do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
The Russell 2000 Value Index is an unmanaged index that consists of stocks in the Russell 2000 Index with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values with dividends reinvested. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Periods longer than one year are annualized.

Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
Detailed Explanation of Quarterly Performance
The Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund is designed to capture the returns of the small-cap value asset class through broad diversification of small company and value stocks. We also seek to minimize the distribution of capital gains within the constraints of the investment objective. This approach is sometimes referred to as “passive, asset class investing.” As of June 30, 2012, we held 724 such stocks in a market cap weighted style. We make no attempt to track any public index in either performance or statistics.
The Fund returns were driven by the fact that returns for small stocks were negative across the board. Declines were broadly spread across almost all sectors. The design tilt towards smaller and deeper value stocks resulted in heavy underweighting in the strong performing Financials sector, which hurt the Fund’s performance for the quarter relative to the Russell 2000 Value Index.
Detailed Explanation of Fiscal Year Performance
Our smaller-cap dominance and deeper value bent helped the performance for the fiscal year. The design tilt towards smaller and deeper value stocks resulted in heavy underweighting in the Financials sector, the best performing sector, which hurt the Fund’s return relative to the Russell 2000 Value Index.

Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund MANAGER’S COMMENTARY (Unaudited) (continued) | |  |
Disclaimer
The views expressed here are exclusively those of Fund management. These views, including those related to market sectors or individual stocks, are not meant as investment advice and should not be considered predictive in nature. Any favorable (or unfavorable) description of a holding applies only as of the quarter-end, June 30, 2012, unless otherwise stated. Security positions can and do change thereafter. Discussions of historical performance do not guarantee and may not be indicative of future performance.
Market volatility can significantly impact short-term performance. The Fund is not an appropriate investment for short-term investors. Investments in small companies generally carry greater risk than is customarily associated with larger companies. This additional risk is attributable to a number of factors, including the relatively limited financial resources that are typically available to small companies and the fact that small companies often have comparatively limited product lines. In addition, the stock of small companies tends to be more volatile than the stock of large companies, particularly in the short term and particularly in the early stages of an economic or market downturn. Shareholders of the Fund, therefore, are taking on more risk than they would if they invested in the stock market as a whole.
Conclusion
Thank you for your continued investment in Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund. We encourage your feedback; your reactions and concerns are important to us.
Sincerely,
The Investment Management Team

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | |  |
June 30, 2012
1. Organization:
Bridgeway Funds, Inc. (“Bridgeway” or the “Company”) was organized as a Maryland corporation on October 19, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company.
Bridgeway is organized as a series fund, with 11 investment funds as of June 30, 2012 (each, a “Bridgeway Fund” and collectively, the “Bridgeway Funds”). Aggressive Investors 1, Ultra-Small Company, Ultra-Small Company Market, Small-Cap Momentum, Small-Cap Growth, Small-Cap Value, Large-Cap Growth, Blue Chip 35 Index and Managed Volatility Funds are presented in a separate report. The Omni Small-Cap Value Fund and the Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund (each a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”) commenced operations on August 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, and are presented in this report.
Bridgeway is authorized to issue 1,987,343,706 shares of common stock at $0.001 per share. 100,000,000 shares have been classified into the Aggressive Investors 1 Fund. 130,000,000 shares have been classified into the Blue Chip 35 Index Fund. 15,000,000 shares have been classified into the Ultra-Small Company Fund. 100,000,000 shares each have been classified into the Ultra-Small Company Market, Omni Small-Cap Value, Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value, Small-Cap Momentum, Small-Cap Growth, Small-Cap Value and Large-Cap Growth Funds. 50,000,000 shares have been classified into the Managed Volatility Fund. All shares outstanding currently represent Class N shares.
All of the Bridgeway Funds are no-load, diversified funds.
The Funds seek to provide long-term total return on capital, primarily through capital appreciation.
Bridgeway Capital Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”) is the investment adviser for all of the Bridgeway Funds.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following summary of significant accounting policies, followed in the preparation of the financial statements of the Funds, are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Securities, Options and Other Investments Valuation Other than options, portfolio securities that are principally traded on a national securities exchange are valued at their last sale price on the principal exchange on which they are traded prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), on each day the NYSE is open for business. If there is no closing price on the NYSE, the portfolio security will be valued using a composite price, which is defined as the last price for the security on any exchange. Portfolio securities other than options that are principally traded on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). In the absence of recorded sales on their home exchange, or NOCP, in the case of NASDAQ traded securities, the security will be valued as follows: bid prices for long positions and ask prices for short positions. Other investments for which no sales are reported are valued at the latest bid price in accordance with the pricing policy established by the Board of Directors.
Investments in open-end registered investment companies and closed-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value (“NAV”) per share.
Investments in closed-end registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.
When market quotations are not readily available or when events occur that make established valuation methods unreliable, securities of the Funds may be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Directors. The valuation assigned to fair valued securities for purposes of calculating the Funds’ NAV may differ from the security’s most recent closing market price and from the prices used by other mutual funds to calculate their NAVs.

| | |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) | |  |
June 30, 2012
The inputs and valuation techniques used to determine the value of a Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:
— | | Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets |
Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equity securities. The Funds do not adjust the quoted price for such investments, even in situations where the Funds hold a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
— | | Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayments speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include certain U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds and less liquid listed equity securities. As investments whose values are classified as Level 2 prices include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information.
Money market fund investments consist of mutual funds which invest primarily in securities that are valued at amortized cost, a Level 2 investment. Therefore, the money market funds are classified as Level 2 investments.
— | | Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including a Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the Funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the Funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the Funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the Funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting value and therefore the Funds’ results of operations.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments. A summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of June 30, 2012 is included with each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
Effective January 1, 2012, the Funds adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04 “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”).” ASU No. 2011-04 is intended to result in common fair value and measurement requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. ASU No. 2011-04 requires reporting entities to disclose quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, ASU No. 2011-04 requires reporting entities to make disclosures about amounts and reasons for all transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. Level 3 securities are not significant to the Funds. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 had no impact on net assets of the Funds.
The Funds’ policy is to recognize transfers into, and transfers out of, each level of hierarchy as of the beginning of the reporting period. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 in any of the Funds. Details regarding transfers into, and transfers out of, Level 3 can be found at the end of each Schedule of Investments for Funds that hold Level 3 securities.
Securities Lending Upon lending its securities to third parties, each Fund receives compensation in the form of fees. A Fund also continues to receive dividends on the securities loaned. The loans are secured by collateral at least equal to the fair value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. Gain or loss in the fair value of the securities loaned that may occur during the
| | |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) | |  |
June 30, 2012
term of the loan will be for the account of a Fund. Each Fund has the right under the lending agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand. Additionally, a Fund does not have the right to sell or repledge collateral received in the form of securities unless the borrower goes into default. The risks to a Fund of securities lending are that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or return the securities when due.
As of June 30, 2012, the Funds had securities on loan and related collateral with values shown below:
| | | | | | | | | | |
Bridgeway Fund | | Securities on Loan Value | | Value of Collateral |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Omni Small-Cap Value | | | $ | 13,371,957 | | | | $ | 13,429,177 | |
Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value | | | | 7,008,491 | | | | | 7,152,453 | |
It is each Fund’s policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than that required under the lending contract. As of June 30, 2012, the collateral consisted of an institutional money market fund.
Use of Estimates in Financial Statements In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties The Funds provide for various investment options, including stocks. Such investments are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the risks involved, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect shareholders’ account values and the amounts reported in the financial statements.
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date, the date the order to buy or sell is executed. Realized gains and losses are computed on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date.
Bridgeway Funds’ expenses that are not series-specific are allocated to each series based upon its relative proportion of net assets to the Bridgeway Funds’ total net assets or other appropriate basis.
Distributions to Shareholders The Funds pay dividends from net investment income and distribute realized capital gains annually, usually in December.
Indemnification Under the Company’s organizational documents, the Funds’ officers, directors, employees and agents are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts.
3. Management Fees, Other Related Party Transactions and Contingencies:
The Funds have entered into a management agreement with the Adviser. As compensation for the advisory services rendered, facilities furnished, and expenses borne by the Adviser, the Funds pay the Adviser a fee of 0.50% of the value of each Fund’s average daily net assets, computed daily and payable monthly.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) | |  |
June 30, 2012
Expense limitations: The Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Funds for operating expenses and management fees above the expense limitations shown in the table below, which are shown as a ratio of net expenses to average net assets, for each Fund, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. Any material change to the expense limitation would require a vote by shareholders of the applicable Fund.
| | | | | | | | | | |
Bridgeway Fund | | Expense Limitation | | Total Waivers and Reimbursements for Period Ending 6/30/12 |
| | | | | | | | |
Omni Small-Cap Value* | | | | 0.60% | | | $184,328 |
Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value* | | | | 0.60% | | | 243,003 |
| | | | | | | | |
*The Funds are authorized to reimburse the Adviser for management fees previously waived and/or for expenses previously paid by the Adviser, provided, however, that any reimbursements must be paid at a date not more than three years after the fiscal year in which the Adviser waived the fees or reimbursed the expenses and the reimbursements do not cause the Funds to exceed the expense limitation in the agreement. The Omni Small-Cap Value Fund has recoupable expenses of $184,328, which expire on June 30, 2015. The Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund has recoupable expenses of $85,793 and $243,003, which expire June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2015, respectively.
Other Waivers and Reimbursements: BNY Mellon Asset Servicing, the Funds’ accounting agent and transfer agent, at its discretion, voluntarily waived a portion of its accounting and transfer agent fees for the Omni Small-Cap Value Fund. For the fiscal period ended June 30, 2012, BNY Mellon Asset Servicing waived $9,766 in accounting fees and $3,000 in transfer agent fees for the Omni Small-Cap Value Fund.
Other Related Party Transactions: On occasion, the Bridgeway Funds will engage in inter-portfolio trades between funds when it is to the benefit of both parties. The Board of Directors reviews these trades quarterly. Inter-portfolio purchases and sales for the Funds during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | |
Bridgeway Fund | | Inter-portfolio Purchases | | Inter-portfolio Sales |
| | | | | | | | |
Omni Small-Cap Value | | | $ | 2,504,801 | | | $ - |
Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value | | | | 1,815,929 | | | - |
The Adviser entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with Bridgeway, pursuant to which the Adviser provides various administrative services to the Funds including, but not limited to: (i) supervising and managing various aspects of the Funds’ business and affairs; (ii) selecting, overseeing and/or coordinating activities with other service providers to the Funds; (iii) providing reports to the Board of Directors as requested from time to time; (iv) assisting and/or reviewing amendments and updates to the Funds’ registration statement and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”); (v) providing certain shareholder services; (vi) providing administrative support in connection with meetings of the Board of Directors; and (vii) providing certain record-keeping services. For its services to all of the Bridgeway Funds, the Adviser is paid an aggregate annual fee of $535,000 payable in equal monthly installments. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the allocation of this expense to the Omni Small-Cap Value and Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Funds was $32,142 and $32,470, respectively.
One director of Bridgeway, John Montgomery, is an owner and director of the Adviser. Another director of Bridgeway, Michael Mulcahy, is an executive and director of the Adviser. Under the 1940 Act definitions, each is considered to be an “affiliated person” of the Adviser and an “interested person” of the Adviser and of Bridgeway. Compensation for Mr. Montgomery and Mr. Mulcahy is borne by the Adviser rather than the Bridgeway Funds.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) | |  |
June 30, 2012
Board of Directors Compensation Independent Directors are paid an annual retainer of $14,000 with an additional retainer of $2,500 paid to the Independent Chairman of the Board and an additional retainer of $1,000 paid to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Chair. Beginning in 2012 the retainer is paid in quarterly installments. Independent Directors are paid $6,000 per meeting for meeting fees. Such compensation is the total compensation from all Bridgeway Funds and is allocated among the Bridgeway Funds.
The Independent Directors receive this compensation in the form of shares of the Bridgeway Funds, credited to his or her account. Such Directors are reimbursed for any expenses incurred in attending meetings and conferences and expenses for subscriptions or printed materials. The amount of Directors’ fees attributable to each Fund is disclosed in the Statement of Operations.
4. Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Fees:
Foreside Fund Services, LLC acts as distributor of the Funds’ shares pursuant to a Distribution Agreement dated November 12, 2010. The Adviser pays all costs and expenses associated with distribution of the Funds’ shares pursuant to a protective plan adopted by shareholders pursuant to Rule 12b-1.
5. Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities:
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term securities, for each Fund for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Purchases | | Sales |
| | U.S. Government | | Other | | U.S. Government | | Other |

Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value | | | | - | | | | | 107,576,027 | | | | | - | | | | | 21,761,225 | |
6. Federal Income Taxes
It is the Funds’ policy to continue to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Internal Revenue Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies and distribute income to the extent necessary so that such Fund is not subject to federal income tax. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
Unrealized Appreciation and Depreciation on Investments (Tax Basis) The amount of net unrealized appreciation/ depreciation and the cost of investment securities for tax purposes, including short-term securities at June 30, 2012, were as follows:
| | | | |
| | Omni Small-Cap Value | | Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value |
Gross appreciation (excess of value over tax cost) | | $ 20,626,623 | | $ 14,541,081 |
Gross depreciation (excess of tax cost over value) | | (9,947,722) | | (10,993,865) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | | $ 10,678,901 | | $ 3,547,216 |
Cost of investments for income tax purposes | | $171,441,642 | | $123,517,731 |
The differences between book and tax net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) are due to wash sale loss deferrals and passive foreign investment company (PFIC) adjustments.
Classifications of Distributions Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from its ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes.
The Omni Small-Cap Value Fund commenced operations on August 31, 2011 and the Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund commenced operations on December 31, 2010. There were no cash distributions paid during the period ended June 30, 2011. The tax character of the distributions paid by the Funds during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, are as follows:

Distributions paid from: | | | | |
Ordinary Income | | $218,329 | | $379,007 |
Total | | $218,329 | | $379,007 |

At June 30, 2012, the Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund had $691,466 of short-term capital loss carryforwards available for tax purposes with an indefinite expiration date. There are no capital loss carryovers for Omni Small-Cap Value Fund as of June 30, 2012.

| | Omni Small-Cap Value | | Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value |
Undistributed Net Investment Income | | $ 508,151 | | $ 455,114 |
Accumulated Net Realized Loss on Investments* | | (145,793) | | (784,480) |
Net Unrealized Appreciation of Investments | | 10,678,901 | | 3,547,216 |
Total | | $11,041,259 | | $3,217,850 |
* | Includes qualified late-year losses that the Funds have elected to defer to the beginning of their next fiscal year ending June 30, 2013. The Omni Small-Cap Value Fund and Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund have deferred post October losses of $145,793 and $93,014, respectively. |
For the fiscal year June 30, 2012, the Funds recorded the following reclassifications to the accounts listed below:
| | | | |
| | Increase (Decrease) |
| | Omni Small-Cap Value | | Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value |
Paid-in-Capital | | $ 20,865 | | $ 5,318 |
Undistributed Net Investment Income | | (20,865) | | (5,318) |
Accumulated Net Realized Loss | | - | | - |
The difference between book and tax components of net assets and the resulting reclassifications were primarily a result of the deduction of equalization debits for tax purposes and disallowed expenses.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Management has analyzed each Fund’s tax positions and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in each Fund’s financial statements. The Funds are not aware of any tax position for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Each Funds’ federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
7. Line of Credit
Bridgeway established a line of credit agreement (“Facility”) with The Bank of New York Mellon effective November 5, 2010. The Facility is for temporary or emergency purposes, such as to provide liquidity for shareholder redemptions, and is cancellable by either party. Unless cancelled earlier, the Facility shall be held available until November 2, 2012. Advances under the Facility are limited to $10,000,000 in total for all Bridgeway Funds and advances to each Bridgeway Fund shall not exceed certain limits set forth in the credit agreement, including but not limited to, the maximum amount a Bridgeway Fund is permitted to borrow under the 1940 Act.
| | |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) | |  |
June 30, 2012
The Bridgeway Funds incur a commitment fee of 0.05% per annum on the unused portion of the Facility and interest expense to the extent of amounts borrowed under the Facility. Interest is based on the higher of (a) the Federal Funds rate, (b) the Overnight Eurodollar Rate, or (c) the One-month Eurodollar Rate, plus 1.25%. The commitment fees are payable quarterly in arrears and are allocated to all participating Bridgeway Funds. Interest expense is charged directly to a Bridgeway Fund based upon actual amounts borrowed by such Bridgeway Fund.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, borrowings by the Funds under this line of credit were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Bridgeway Fund | | Weighted Average Interest Rate | | Weighted Average Loan Balance | | Number of Days Outstanding | | Interest Expense Incurred1 | | Maximum Amount Borrowed During the Period |

1Interest expense is included on the Statements of Operations in Miscellaneous expenses. | | | | | | | | | | |
There were no outstanding borrowings by the Funds under this line of credit as of June 30, 2012.

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2012 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Omni Small-Cap Value Fund and Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund as of June 30, 2012, the results of their operations, changes in their net assets and financial highlights for each of the years or periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

4. Approval of Investment Management Agreement For Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund
The Bridgeway Funds, Inc.’s (the “Company”) management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with its investment adviser, Bridgeway Capital Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”), on behalf of each of the Company’s funds must be approved for an initial term no greater than two years and renewed at least annually thereafter (i) by the vote of the Directors or by a vote of the shareholders of each fund and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the Directors who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” of any party thereto (the “Independent Directors”), cast in person at a meeting called specifically for the purpose of voting on such approval.
The Board of Directors (the “Board”) has five regularly scheduled meetings each year and takes into account throughout the year matters bearing on the Management Agreement. The Board and its standing committees also consider at each meeting
| | |
44 | | Annual Report | June 30, 2012 |
| | |
OTHER INFORMATION (continued) | |  |
June 30, 2012 (unaudited)
factors that are relevant to the annual renewal of each fund’s Management Agreement, including the services and support provided to each fund and its shareholders.
On June 1, 2012, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, met in person (the “Meeting”) with the Adviser, Company counsel, independent legal counsel (“Independent Legal Counsel”) to the Independent Directors and others to give consideration to information bearing on the continuation of the Management Agreement with respect to the Omni Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund (the “Fund”).1 In preparation for the Meeting, the Independent Directors requested that the Adviser provide specific information relevant to their consideration of the renewal of the Fund’s Management Agreement. In response to that request, the Independent Directors were furnished with a wide variety of information with respect to the Fund, including:
| — | | investment performance over various time periods and the fees and expenses of the Fund as compared to a comparable group of funds (the “peer funds”); |
| — | | the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser to the Fund, including investment advisory and administrative services; |
| — | | actual management fees paid by the Fund to the Adviser; |
| — | | the Adviser’s costs of providing services to the Fund and the profitability of the Adviser derived from its relationship with the Fund; |
| — | | the extent to which economies of scale may be present and if so, the degree to which they would be shared with the Fund’s shareholders; |
| — | | any “fall out” or ancillary benefits accruing to the Adviser as a result of its relationship with the Fund; and |
| — | | information regarding the structure of the advisory fees, the method of computing fees and the frequency of payment of fees and any expense limitation or fee waiver arrangements for the Fund. |
The Independent Directors also met telephonically with Independent Legal Counsel prior to the Meeting to review and discuss the information provided by the Adviser and, as a result of the telephonic meeting, requested certain additional information from the Adviser. Moreover, the Independent Directors also met in executive session with Independent Legal Counsel to consider the continuation of the Management Agreement outside the presence of management during the Meeting.
In considering the aforementioned information, the Independent Directors took into account management style, investment strategies and prevailing market conditions. Furthermore, in evaluating the Management Agreement, the Directors also reviewed information provided by the Adviser concerning the following:
| — | | the terms of the Management Agreement, including the services performed by the Adviser in managing the Fund in accordance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and restrictions and how those services and fees differ from the Adviser’s services to non-mutual fund accounts; |
| — | | the services provided by the Adviser under a separate Administrative Services Agreement and the fact that those services were provided at approximately cost to the Fund; |
1 The Management Agreement with respect to the Omni Small-Cap Value Fund was initially approved by the Board of Directors (and Independent Directors) for an initial period of two years beginning on the date of commencement of operation of the Fund at the Board’s meeting held on May 13, 2011 and therefore the Fund’s Management Agreement is not required to be renewed until 2013.
| | |
OTHER INFORMATION (continued) | |  |
June 30, 2012 (unaudited)
| — | | the Adviser’s specialized skills and experience in statistical analysis and investment management and trading; |
| — | | the Adviser’s personnel, staffing levels and the time and attention the Adviser’s personnel devote to the management of all of the Bridgeway Funds as compared to other Adviser clients; |
| — | | the Adviser’s risk assessment and risk management capabilities; |
| — | | the fact that the Adviser continues to use no soft dollars; and |
| — | | the financial condition and stability of the Adviser, including supplemental financial information provided upon the request of the Independent Directors and the fact that at the current time, the Adviser is operating the Fund at a loss. |
After extensive discussion and consideration among themselves, and with the Adviser, Company counsel and Independent Legal Counsel, including during an executive session with Independent Legal Counsel, the Independent Directors concluded the following:
| — | | the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser’s services were appropriate and consistent with the terms of the Management Agreement and mutual fund industry norms; |
| — | | the investment performance of the Fund was acceptable over the short operating history of the Fund; |
| — | | the management fees and overall expense levels, after taking into account any applicable management fee and expense waivers, were significantly lower than peer funds; |
| — | | the costs of services provided by the Adviser to the Fund were fair and reasonable in relation to the services and benefits provided to the Fund; and |
| — | | although there were no breakpoints in the Fund’s fee schedule, shareholders of the Fund were not missing the opportunity to benefit from economies of scale in view of the fact that the Fund was priced low in anticipation of future growth. |
In summary, the Independent Directors renewed the Management Agreement with respect to the Fund. The Independent Directors valued access by the Fund to the Adviser’s proprietary statistically driven investment management services and favorable fee levels, considered the favorable short term performance of the Fund and concluded that renewal of the Management Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. Based on all of the information presented, the Board, including a majority of its Independent Directors, determined that the fees charged under the Management Agreement are reasonable in relation to the services that are provided under the Management Agreement. In view of the broad scope and variety of factors and information, the Directors did not identify any single factor as being of paramount importance in reaching their conclusions and determinations to approve the continuance of the Management Agreement for the Fund. Rather, the approval determination was made on the basis of each Director’s business judgment after consideration of all of the factors taken in their entirety.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES | |  |
June 30, 2012 (unaudited)
As a shareholder of a Fund, you will incur no transaction costs from such Fund, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, on reinvested dividends, or on other distributions. There are no exchange fees. However, as a shareholder of a Fund, you will incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested on January 1, 2012 and held until June 30, 2012.
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 “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Fund and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
The expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight ongoing Fund costs only. 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, because other funds may also have transaction costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees or exchange fees.
