Message to Shareholders of State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
Thank you for investing with State Farm Mutual Funds. Enclosed is the Annual Report for the 12-month period ended November 30, 2013. In this report you will find management’s discussion of investment philosophy and process for each of the Funds offered by the Trust, factors that affected each Fund’s performance over the 12-month period, and benchmark index comparisons that are designed to put that performance into context.
During the 2013 fiscal year, the U.S. and international equity markets experienced positive returns while fixed income markets were mixed, with some fixed income indices achieving negative single-digit total returns, due primarily to higher interest rates.
The table below shows annual total returns for each of the four Funds compared to their respective benchmarks for the 12-month period ended November 30, 2013.
| | |
Average Annual Total Returns (as of November 30, 2013)1 | | |

State Farm Growth Fund | | 24.06% |
Benchmark: S&P 500® Index | | 30.30% |

In the U.S., equity markets (as represented by the S&P 500® Index) achieved positive total returns in ten of the past twelve months ended November 30, 2013. Throughout the period, equity markets were influenced by many positive factors including: generally subdued inflation, improving corporate earnings, and modest positive growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) – all factors that contributed to improved investor confidence and an increase in equity market price-to-earnings (P/E) valuations. In addition, the Federal Reserve maintained an accommodative monetary policy by leaving the Fed Funds Rate unchanged in a target range of 0% to 0.25%, where it remained for the entire 12-month period ended November 30, 2013.

However, the market environment was not without its challenges. In December 2012, equity markets became concerned with the U.S. congressional budget vote on what was known as the “fiscal cliff” and the impacts of the resulting fiscal decisions. During February and March, several international equity markets turned negative and became increasingly volatile as unresolved concerns about sovereign debt issues in several European countries as well as a banking crisis in the small island nation of Cyprus weighed on investor sentiment.2 Throughout the second half of the fiscal year, the markets were focused on commentary from the Federal Reserve about its intentions and timing of potentially reducing its asset-purchase programs known as “quantitative easing.” In addition, in the fall of 2013, the markets digested renewed fears of the fiscal cliff and a two week U.S. government shutdown in October 2013. Despite these challenges, the S&P 500 Index reached all-time highs during the year. For the 12-month period ended November 30, 2013, the S&P 500 Index had a price increase from 1,416.18 to 1,805.81, and posted a total return of 30.30%, including reinvested dividends.

Meanwhile, prices of Treasury bonds declined as concerns grew that the Federal Reserve might start reducing the amount of its asset-purchase programs sooner than expected by the markets. Over the entire 12-months, the yield on 10-year U.S. Treasuries rose from 1.62% at the beginning of the period, to a high of 2.98% on September 5, 2013, before settling down to 2.75% on November 30, 2013. Short-term yields remained low, with 3-month U.S. Treasury yields declining 2 basis points from 0.08% at the beginning of the period, to 0.06% on November 30, 2013.3

Among major fixed income indices, the Barclays 1-5 Year Treasury Index and the Barclays 7-Year Municipal Bond Index posted total returns of 0.25% and –1.77%, respectively, over the 12-month period ended November 30, 2013, as bond price declines, due primarily to higher interest rates, offset bond coupon income.
With negative total returns for some bond-oriented indices, it is important to remember the risk that is present when investing, even in bond funds. Investing involves risk, including a potential for loss.
While dramatic changes in the markets, either positive or negative, are part of investing, State Farm Investment Management Corp. has consistently maintained a long term, disciplined approach to managing investment risk.

State Farm Growth Fund Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)
Overview
Describe the Fund’s investment objective and philosophy.
The State Farm Growth Fund is managed with a long-term investment orientation. Our investment process is based on a rigorous fundamental analysis of companies. We focus on risk as well as the potential for reward. We look for well managed companies with a niche or business specialty that serves an appropriately-sized market opportunity. We prefer companies with a strong customer focus and a history of prudent financial decisions. We also believe that dividends are an important part of an investment’s total return and therefore prefer companies that pay a regular dividend. While we are conscious of how the Fund’s portfolio differs from its broad-based benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, we do not make decisions based upon the Index.
Describe the relevant market environment as it related to the Fund for the reporting period.
The market environment was influenced by many positive factors including: generally subdued inflation, improving corporate earnings, and modest positive growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) – all factors that contributed to improved investor confidence and an increase in equity market price-to-earnings (P/E) valuations. In addition, the Federal Reserve maintained an accommodative monetary policy by leaving the Fed Funds Rate unchanged in a target range of 0% to 0.25%, where it remained for the entire 12-month period ended November 30, 2013.
However, the market environment was not without its challenges. In December 2012, equity markets became concerned with the U.S. congressional budget vote on what was known as the “fiscal cliff” and the impacts of the resulting fiscal decisions. During February and March, several international equity markets turned negative and became increasingly volatile as unresolved concerns about sovereign debt issues in several European countries as well as a banking crisis in the small island nation of Cyprus weighed on investor sentiment. Throughout the second half of the fiscal year, the markets were focused on commentary from the Federal Reserve about its intentions and timing of potentially reducing its asset-purchase programs known as “quantitative easing.” In addition, in the fall of 2013, the markets digested renewed fears of the fiscal cliff and a two week U.S. government shutdown in October 2013.
Throughout the year, oil and gold prices were volatile. Oil prices began the period at around $89/barrel and ranged between approximately $86 and $111/barrel during the period, before ending the period November 2013 around $93/barrel, an increase of 4% for the 12-month period. Gold prices began the period at around $1,711 per troy ounce and ranged between approximately $1,183 and $1,722 per troy ounce during the period, before ending the period November 2013 around $1,251/oz., a decrease of –27% for the 12-month period.
Despite the sovereign debt crisis in Europe, the U.S. dollar fell against the euro during the period. For the period December 2012 through November 2013, the U.S. dollar declined by approximately –4% to $1.36/euro. Versus the British pound, the U.S. dollar fell by approximately –2% during the period to $1.64/£.
The 12-month total return for the S&P 500 Index was 30.30% for the period ended November 30, 2013. The total return for the period reflected an increase in corporate earnings per share for the S&P 500 Index companies of approximately 6%, an expansion of the price/earnings valuation of the S&P 500 Index of approximately 22%, and a dividend return of approximately 2.20%.

The State Farm Growth Fund’s portfolio turnover over the past 12-months was 0.68%, which is consistent with the Fund’s investment philosophy and approach. There were 72 holdings in the Fund totaling approximately $3.7 billion in assets at the end of the reporting period compared to 63 holdings and approximately $3.1 billion in assets one year earlier. As discussed in the Overview – we feel that a company’s dividend policy is an important component in the analysis and selection of securities for the State Farm Growth Fund. From December 1, 2012, through November 30, 2013, 47 of the stocks in the portfolio, accounting for over 73% of the Fund’s total net assets, increased their dividends.
Given the performance analysis above, what factors should shareholders take into consideration when reviewing the Fund’s performance?
We are long-term investors who spend a lot of time getting to know companies and the people who run them. We seek to understand the company’s long term strategies as well as the competitive advantages and risks inherent in them. When we invest in a company, it is normally our intention to maintain that investment for a very long period of time. Our investment strategy generally is not influenced by short term factors. Our philosophy sometimes will result in periods when the Fund’s performance trails that of the market. We define risk as the permanent loss of investment capital. We believe that our philosophy combined with our views on risk have produced competitive returns versus the benchmark over a long period of time.

State Farm Balanced Fund Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)
Overview
Describe the Fund’s investment objective and philosophy.
The State Farm Balanced Fund is invested in a combination of stocks and bonds in the pursuit of long-term growth of principal while providing some current income. The Balanced Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing approximately 60% of its total assets in common stocks, and ordinarily limits its common stock investments to no more than 75% of total assets. The Balanced Fund ordinarily invests at least 25% of its total assets in fixed income securities, but for a time may choose to invest as much as 75% of its total assets in fixed income securities, including short-term securities. The equity allocation is managed with a conservative bias that favors large capitalization companies that we believe are well managed with a niche or business specialty. The fixed income component invests in high quality U.S. government and corporate bonds primarily of intermediate maturity and seeks to provide shareowners with current income in addition to some protection from equity market volatility. We tend to maintain a long term investment orientation with both the stock and bond investments in the Fund.
Describe the relevant market environment as it related to the Fund for the reporting period.
The market environment was influenced by many positive factors including: generally subdued inflation, improving corporate earnings, and modest positive growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) – all factors that contributed to improved investor confidence and an increase in equity market price-to-earnings (P/E) valuations.

The 12-month total return for the S&P 500 Index was 30.30% for the period ended November 30, 2013. The total return for the period reflected an increase in corporate earnings per share for the S&P 500 Index companies of approximately 6%, an expansion of the price/earnings valuation of the S&P 500 Index of approximately 22%, and a dividend return of approximately 2.20%.
Bond markets, as represented by the Barclays Intermediate Government/Credit Index, generated a total return of
–0.33% during the 12-month period ended November 30, 2013. The performance of the Index was comprised of the Intermediate Credit-portion (35.8% Index weighting), which posted a total return of 0.30%, and the Intermediate Government-portion (64.2% Index weighting), which generated a total return of –0.68%. The total return of the Intermediate Credit-portion was comprised of a price return of –3.45% and a coupon return of 3.75%. Meanwhile, the total return of the Intermediate Government-portion was comprised of a price return of –2.48% and a coupon return of 1.80%.1

An intermediate maturity structure continues to be the Fund’s investment orientation with 75.6% of the fixed income securities (representing 30.4% of total net assets) maturing within 3-11 years. These securities included U.S. Treasury securities (19.44% of total net assets) and corporate bonds (18.00% of total net assets). From a credit rating standpoint, the majority of the fixed income portion of the Fund was invested in Aaa-rated securities, including U.S. Treasury bonds and certain corporate bonds (50.2% of fixed income assets). The remaining corporate fixed income portfolio was invested in Aa-rated bonds (9.9% of fixed income assets), single A-rated debt (29.2% of fixed income assets), and Baa-rated bonds (4.8% of fixed income assets).2

11
The negative total return of the fixed income portion of the Fund over the 12-month period was generated by the Fund’s holdings of U.S. Treasury securities and corporate bonds, which both had negative total returns in the low-single digits. The Fund’s corporate bonds provided the greatest detraction to the returns of the fixed income portion of the Fund. The Fund’s fixed-income investment orientation of investing in intermediate-term, higher quality bonds helped to provide stability and serve as a buffer to the volatility from the equity portion of the State Farm Balanced Fund throughout the year. The duration of the State Farm Balanced Fund’s bond portfolio at the end of November 2013 stood at 4.8 years, which is up from 4.6 years on December 1, 2012. Duration is a statistical calculation that measures a bond’s (or in this case, a bond portfolio’s) price sensitivity relative to general movements in interest rates.
Given the performance analysis above, what factors should shareholders take into consideration when reviewing the Fund’s performance?
The Fund is designed and managed as a balanced fund that blends both stocks and bonds together in one convenient investment. Given that structure, performance for the Fund over the long term will typically (but not always) fall somewhere in between the return of a stock index like the S&P 500 Index and a bond index like the Barclays Intermediate Government/Credit Index.

State Farm Interim Fund Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)
Overview
Describe the Fund’s investment objective and philosophy.
The State Farm Interim Fund is managed in a fashion that seeks to achieve over a period of years, the highest yield consistent with relatively low price volatility. When managing the Fund, we are generally buy-and-hold investors who focus primarily on U.S. Government obligations. General investment practice within the Fund is to distribute the Fund’s investments in varying amounts among securities maturing in up to six or seven years from the time of purchase, but may occasionally purchase securities maturing in up to 15 years.
Describe the relevant market environment as it related to the Fund for the reporting period.
Throughout the 1-year period ended November 30, 2013, fixed income markets were impacted by factors including: generally subdued inflation, improving corporate earnings, and modest positive growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Moreover, the Federal Reserve maintained an accommodative monetary policy by leaving the Fed Funds Rate unchanged in a target range of 0% to 0.25%, where it remained for the entire 12-month period ended November 30, 2013.
Interest rates were affected by concerns arising from the December 2012 U.S. congressional budget vote on what was known as the “fiscal cliff” and the anticipated impacts of the resulting fiscal decisions. In addition, during the second half of the fiscal year, the markets were focused on commentary from the Federal Reserve about its intentions and timing of potentially reducing its asset-purchase programs known as “quantitative easing.” In the fall of 2013, the markets digested renewed fears of another fiscal cliff and a two week U.S. government shutdown in October 2013.
During the 1-year period, the U.S. Treasury yield curve steepened with interest rates rising on long- and intermediate-maturity U.S. Treasuries, while decreasing or remaining flat on shorter-maturity U.S. Treasuries. For example, the yield on 10-year U.S. Treasuries increased 113 basis points from 1.62% at the beginning of the period, to 2.75% on November 30, 2013, while the yield on 2-year U.S. Treasuries increased only 3 basis points from 0.25% at the beginning of the period, to 0.28% on November 30, 2013. Short-term yields remained at low levels, with 3-month U.S. Treasury yields decreasing from 0.08% at the beginning of the period, to 0.06% on November 30, 2013.

Overall, for the year ended November 30, 2013, short- and intermediate-maturity U.S. Treasuries outperformed relative to longer-maturity U.S. Treasuries. For the 1-year period, the total return for 1-3 year U.S. Treasuries and Intermediate-maturity U.S. Treasuries were 0.53% and –0.76%, respectively, compared to a total return of –14.03% on 20+ year U.S. Treasuries.

How did the Fund perform during the reporting period?
For the 1-year period ended November 30, 2013, the State Farm Interim Fund had a total return of –0.51% after expenses, compared to a total return of 0.25% for the Barclays 1-5 Year U.S. Treasury Index. The line graph below provides perspective on the Fund’s long term results.

Performance Analysis
What factors helped and hindered performance during the reporting period?
Short-maturity U.S. Treasury Notes provided a positive total return while U.S. Treasury Notes with maturities greater than four years had a negative total return for the 1-year period. The Fund’s exposure to U.S. Treasury Notes with maturities greater than four years contributed to the Fund underperforming its benchmark. As mentioned earlier, the Fund generally maintains exposure across a six-year maturity spectrum. As U.S. Treasury Notes mature, they are reinvested in U.S. Treasury Notes at prevailing interest rate levels.
The duration of the State Farm Interim Fund at the end of November 2013 stood at 3.3 years, which is up from 3.2 years on December 1, 2012. The Fund’s duration was higher than the duration of its benchmark (the Barclays 1-5 Year U.S. Treasury Index) of 2.6 years as of November 30, 2013. In an environment of rising interest rates during the reporting period, the Fund underperformed relative to its benchmark due in part to its higher duration orientation. Duration is a statistical calculation that measures a bond’s (or in this case, a bond fund’s) price sensitivity relative to general movements in interest rates.
Given the performance analysis above, what factors should shareholders take into consideration when reviewing the Fund’s performance?
Given its investment objective of high current income consistent with low price volatility, the Fund is designed to be a stable, low risk element of a diversified portfolio. As interest rates fall, bond prices rise and vice versa. If interest rates remain at current low levels or decline further, total returns (interest plus price gains) may increase. Conversely, if interest rates increase, total returns may decline.

State Farm Municipal Bond Fund Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)
Overview
Describe the Fund’s investment objective and philosophy.
The State Farm Municipal Bond Fund seeks as high a rate of income exempt from federal income taxes as is consistent with prudent investment management. Income may be subject to state and local taxes and (if applicable) the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). In managing the Fund, we focus on high credit quality bonds with an investment philosophy that seeks to provide competitive total returns, while managing for tax efficiency within the municipal bond asset class over the long run. The municipal bond market, while relatively small in total assets compared to the taxable market, is very broad by number of issuers. As a result, we believe that fundamental research and professional management are critical to success. While we diversify the maturity spectrum of the bonds within the portfolio, we tend to favor the intermediate-maturity range for the bulk of the Fund’s assets. The Fund also seeks to remain invested mainly in bonds of high-credit quality in an attempt to reduce the risk of loss to investment principal as a result of credit losses.
In selecting securities for the Fund, we generally invest in the 5-15 year maturity range and avoid long maturities. While we are conscious of how the Fund’s portfolio differs from its benchmark, the Barclays 7-Year Municipal Bond Index, we do not make decisions based upon the Index.
Describe the relevant market environment as it related to the Fund for the reporting period.

As illustrated in Table 1 below, the municipal bond yield curve steepened as intermediate- and longer-maturity yields increased while short-maturity yields declined over the 1-year period ended November 30, 2013.

From a total return standpoint, the higher end of investment-grade quality municipal bonds (Aaa and Aa rated bonds) outperformed relative to lower investment-grade quality municipal bonds (A and Baa rated bonds) within the Barclays Municipal Bond Index over the reporting period as illustrated by those credit quality component returns in Table 3 below.

As of November 30, 2013, the 3.77% yield on 20-year Aaa-rated municipal bonds exceeded the 3.54% yield offered on comparable 20-year taxable U.S. Treasuries by 23 basis points, which is not a normal yield spread relationship. Typically, long-term municipal bonds offer approximately 75% to 90% of the yields available on comparable U.S. Treasuries because of the income tax benefits associated with municipal bonds. This yield comparison has been typically used as a general gauge within the industry to determine the relative attractiveness of municipal securities.

Performance Analysis
What factors helped and hindered performance during the reporting period?
The Fund produced a negative total return for the 1-year period. As illustrated in Table 2 above, longer-maturity bonds underperformed intermediate maturities, which in turn underperformed short maturities over the 1-year period. Consistent with the Fund’s intermediate-maturity orientation, none of the Fund’s total investments were in bonds having maturities over 22 years as of November 30, 2013. Relative to the Barclays 7-Year Municipal Bond Index, the Fund had a higher concentration in bonds having maturities between 12-22 years, which underperformed relative to intermediate-maturity bonds during the year. This factor played a part in the Fund underperforming the Barclays 7-Year Municipal Bond Index during the reporting period.
We seek to maintain the risk profile of the Fund with respect to volatility (duration), interest rate risk and capital (credit risk). Throughout the reporting period, the Fund’s modified duration decreased slightly from 4.50 years as of December 1, 2012 to 4.44 years as of November 30, 2013. Modified duration is a statistical calculation that measures a bond’s (or in this case, a bond fund’s) price sensitivity relative to general movements in interest rates. The Fund maintained a high quality credit orientation consistent with the Fund’s historical investment philosophy throughout the reporting period ended November 30, 2013.
Table 4 below provides an illustration of the Fund’s credit quality orientation compared to the Index benchmark as of November 30, 2013. Over the reporting period, the higher end of investment-grade quality municipal bonds (Aaa and Aa rated bonds) outperformed relative to lower investment-grade quality municipal bonds (A and Baa rated bonds) as previously illustrated in Table 3 above.

As highlighted earlier, the difference in maturity structure between the Fund and its benchmark along with the Fund’s higher credit quality orientation than its benchmark played a role in the Fund’s relative performance versus the benchmark during the reporting period. The objective of the Fund is to seek as high a rate of income exempt from federal income taxes as is consistent with prudent investment management. The Fund has been invested with a bias towards high-credit quality, intermediate maturity bonds. Adopting additional risk by increasing duration significantly and/or increasing the weighting in lower-credit quality bonds would not have been consistent with the Fund’s historical investment philosophy.
The number of individual bonds held in the portfolio over the reporting period increased by one, from 438 to 439 bonds. Turnover for the reporting period was 10.5%. Investments within the State of Florida represented the largest single allocation in any state representing 6.20% of total net assets, which is up from 5.90% from the beginning of the reporting period.
The largest additions to the portfolio included net acquisitions of bonds in Michigan and Arkansas. Bonds secured by a general obligation pledge accounted for approximately 80% of all new acquisitions with revenue bond purchases representing 20% of the total. The average ratings quality of new bond purchases was Aa/AA. The largest net reduction of holdings occurred through sales and maturities of bonds in Louisiana and Illinois.
Given the performance analysis above, what factors should shareholders take into consideration when reviewing the Fund’s performance?
The State Farm Municipal Bond Fund seeks a high level of income exempt from federal income tax through investment in a diversified portfolio of high quality bonds. We utilize a long-term philosophy seeking to provide competitive total returns relative to the municipal bond asset class while managing for tax efficiency.

Expense Example (unaudited)
As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The Example in the following table is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period as stated in the table below.
Actual Expenses
The first line under each Fund name in 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 for a Fund by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” for the applicable Fund to estimate the expenses you paid on your account for that Fund during this period. If your account has multiple Fund positions, add up the results calculated for each Fund position within your account to estimate the expenses you paid on your total account value. A potential account fee of $10 per calendar quarter is not included in the expenses shown in the table. This fee will be charged to an account (other than a SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA, Archer Medical Savings Account, Tax Sheltered Account under §403(b)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code or an account held under other employer-sponsored qualified retirement plans) if the balance in the account falls below $5,000 at the close of business on the second business day of the last month of the calendar quarter, unless the account has been open for less than a year as of the second business day of the last month of the calendar quarter. You should consider any account fee you incurred when estimating the total ongoing expenses paid over the period and the impact of this fee on your ending account value. This additional fee has the effect of reducing investment returns.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line under each Fund name in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. A potential account fee of $10 per calendar quarter is not included in the expenses shown in the table. This fee will be charged to an account (other than a SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA, Archer Medical Savings Account, Tax Sheltered Account under §403(b)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code or an account held under other employer-sponsored qualified retirement plans) if the balance in the account falls below $5,000 at the close of business on the second business day of the last month of the calendar quarter, unless the account has been open for less than a year as of the second business day of the last month of the calendar quarter. You should consider any account fee that you incurred when estimating the total ongoing expenses paid over the period and the impact of this fee on your ending account value. This additional fee has the effect of increasing the costs of investing.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the second line under each Fund name in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds, including those that have transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (unaudited)
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust (“Associates’ Funds Trust”) held on June 14, 2013 all of the Trustees present, including those Trustees who were not “interested persons” as defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”), of Associates’ Funds Trust, approved the continuation of the Investment Advisory and Management Services Agreement between State Farm Investment Management Corp. (“SFIMC”) and Associates’ Funds Trust (the “Advisory Agreement”).
In considering whether to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees were assisted in their review by independent legal counsel, which had sent to SFIMC a request for information to be provided to the Independent Trustees in connection with their consideration of the continuation of the Advisory Agreement. SFIMC provided materials to the Independent Trustees responding to that request, including a fund-by-fund profitability analysis on each series of the Associates’ Funds Trust (each, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”), as well as an explanation of the methodology by which SFIMC had calculated that profitability. SFIMC also provided the Board with additional information that SFIMC believed would be useful to the Board in evaluating whether to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreement. The Board also received a report prepared by Strategic Insight, an independent fund tracking organization (the “Strategic Insight Report”), relating to the performance and expenses of each Fund. In addition, the Board received and reviewed a memorandum from the legal counsel to Associates’ Funds Trust and its Independent Trustees regarding their responsibilities (particularly the Independent Trustees’ responsibilities) in considering whether to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreement.
The Independent Trustees of Associates’ Funds Trust reviewed these materials at meetings held on March 15, 2013, May 29, 2013, and June 14, 2013, during which meetings SFIMC management responded to specific questions from the Independent Trustees and provided follow-up information. The Independent Trustees discussed all of this material extensively among themselves, with their independent legal counsel and with the other Board members, after which the Board considered various factors described below, no one of which alone was considered dispositive. However, the material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Board’s determination to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreement are discussed separately below.
Investment Performance
The Board considered the performance of each Fund. Among other things, the Board examined the year-to-date, one-, three-, five- and ten-year performance of each Fund as compared to the performance of one or more benchmark indexes and a peer group of funds with comparable investment objectives, investment strategies, asset size and no-load structures compiled by Strategic Insight (“Peer Funds”). The Board considered the information contained in the Strategic Insight Report relating to the overall performance of the Funds, including as compared to each Fund’s benchmark and/or index and Peer Funds. The Board noted the favorable long-term performance of the Growth and Balanced Funds compared to each Fund’s benchmark(s) and Peer Funds. The Board noted that the short-term performance of the Growth Fund and Balanced Fund had moderately lagged the performance of each Fund’s benchmark(s) and Peer Funds given the conservative nature by which SFIMC manages those Funds. In that regard, management confirmed to the Board its philosophy to manage the Growth Fund and Balanced Fund in a manner such that the Funds generally will tend to underperform their benchmarks and Peer Funds in periods of strong market performance or periods in which increased risk is rewarded. The Board and management noted that over long-term market cycles, this conservative investment approach generally has provided competitive investment performance for these two Funds and for the other Funds of Associates’ Funds Trust. The Board also noted the favorable performance of the Interim and Municipal Bond Funds compared to each Fund’s benchmark(s) and Peer Funds. After extensive discussion of this and other performance information, the Board concluded that the investment performance of the Funds over the periods reviewed was acceptable.
Fees and Expenses
The Board examined the fee structure and expense ratio of each Fund, including in comparison to Peer Funds. The Board concluded that each Fund’s expense structure and overall fees were relatively low and were acceptable. In connection with examining the fee structure and expense ratio of each Fund, the Board considered the amount of profits earned (or losses incurred) by SFIMC in providing advisory and management services to each Fund, as well as the methodology by which that profit (or loss) was calculated. The Board concluded that each Fund’s expense structure and overall fees were acceptable.
In the context of reviewing the Funds’ fees, the Board also discussed the extent to which economies of scale will be realized as each Fund grows and whether each Fund’s fee levels reflect economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund. Economies of scale occur when a mutual fund’s expenses per unit, such as per dollar invested in the fund, decreases as the fund increases in size. The Board considered that the Advisory Agreement includes breakpoints for each Fund, which can lead to economies of scale for Fund shareholders as assets increase.
21
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the advisory services provided by SFIMC to the Funds. The Board considered the make-up, education and experience of the SFIMC investment management teams responsible for managing the Funds, and concluded that these teams have a satisfactory, long-term track record in managing the Funds. The Board also considered the compliance environment of the Funds, and SFIMC’s management of that environment. After considering this information, the Board concluded that SFIMC had more than sufficient resources and expertise to capably continue to manage the Funds.
The Board next discussed whether SFIMC derives any other direct or indirect benefits from serving as investment adviser to the Funds. SFIMC discussed the various ancillary services that it provides the Funds, including serving as transfer agent, and its affiliate, State Farm VP Management Corp., serving as the Funds’ distributor. SFIMC explained to the Board that, in exchange for providing transfer agency services, SFIMC receives proceeds from the account fee imposed on shareholders of Associates’ Funds Trust. Management also explained that State Farm VP Management Corp. receives no fees from Associates’ Funds Trust for providing distribution services. SFIMC indicated to the Board that it was not aware of any other ancillary or other benefits that SFIMC (and its affiliates) receive from Associates’ Funds Trust, particularly because SFIMC does not execute securities trades on behalf of the Funds through an affiliated broker-dealer. The Board concluded that the lack of any material ancillary, or so-called “fallout,” benefits enables SFIMC to manage assets of the Funds in a manner that appears to be free of conflicts of interest.
Based on the Trustees’ deliberations and their evaluation of the information provided by SFIMC, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees voting separately, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement for all the Funds through June 30, 2014.

STATE FARM ASSOCIATES’ FUNDS TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Investment Objective
The State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust (the “Trust”) has four separate investment portfolios (each a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, management investment company. Each Fund has its own investment objective, investment policies, restrictions, and attendant risks and is diversified as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940. State Farm Investment Management Corp. (“SFIMC”) is the Trust’s investment adviser.
The State Farm Growth Fund (the “Growth Fund”) seeks long-term growth of capital which may be supplemented by income. The Growth Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in common stocks and other income producing equity securities.
The State Farm Balanced Fund (the “Balanced Fund”) seeks long-term growth of principal while providing some current income. The Balanced Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing under normal circumstances approximately 60% of its assets in common stocks, and ordinarily limits its common stock investments to no more than 75% of total assets. The Balanced Fund ordinarily invests at least 25% of its total assets in fixed income securities. The Balanced Fund invests in bonds to provide relative stability of principal and income.
The State Farm Interim Fund (the “Interim Fund”) seeks the realization over a period of years of the highest yield consistent with relatively low price volatility. The Interim Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective through investment in high quality debt securities with short and intermediate-term maturities.
The State Farm Municipal Bond Fund (the “Municipal Bond Fund”) seeks as high a rate of income exempt from federal income taxes as is consistent with prudent investment management. The Municipal Bond Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective through investment primarily in a diversified selection of municipal bonds with maturities of one to seventeen years. The Municipal Bond Fund normally invests so that either (1) at least 80% of the Fund’s net investment income is exempt from regular federal income tax or (2) at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets are invested in securities that produce income exempt from regular federal income tax.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
Fund Share Valuation
Fund shares are sold and redeemed on a continuous basis at net asset value. The net asset value per share is determined daily on each day the New York Stock Exchange is open. The net asset value for each Fund is determined as of the close of regular session trading on the New York Stock Exchange (usually 3:00 p.m. Central Time). The net asset value per share is computed by dividing the total value of a Fund’s investments and other assets, less liabilities, by the number of Fund shares outstanding.
Securities Valuation
All investments in securities are recorded at their fair value. For more information see Note 3 Securities Valuation.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income
For financial reporting purposes, security transactions are accounted for on trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis, and includes amortization of premiums and discounts on fixed income securities. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are reported on an identified cost basis.
Expenses
Expenses arising in connection with a specific Fund are allocated to that Fund. Common Trust expenses are allocated between the Funds in proportion to each Fund’s relative net assets.
Income Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders
Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and, in the manner provided therein, to distribute substantially all of their taxable income, including any net realized gain on sales of investments, reportable for federal income tax purposes.
For more information refer to Note 4 Income Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders.
Foreign Currency Translation
Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing foreign exchange rates at November 30, 2013. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are
STATE FARM ASSOCIATES’ FUNDS TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing foreign exchange rates on the respective dates of transactions. That portion of realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed, but is included with realized and unrealized gains and losses on investment securities.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts on behalf of the Funds that may contain provisions for general indemnifications. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these indemnification provisions is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against each Fund that are not known at this time. However, based on experience, the Funds believe the risk of loss from these indemnification provisions is remote.
Securities Purchased on a “When-Issued” Basis
The Municipal Bond Fund may purchase municipal bonds on a “when-issued” basis. Delivery and payment for these securities may be a month or more after the purchase date, during which time such securities are subject to market fluctuations. The Municipal Bond Fund identifies and holds specific liquid assets with a market value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued purchase commitments in order to ensure that it can meet those commitments. It is possible that the securities will never be issued and the commitment cancelled. At November 30, 2013, the Municipal Bond Fund did not have any commitments for when-issued securities.
3. Securities Valuation
Investments are valued at fair value pursuant to valuation procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The valuation procedures assign to SFIMC the responsibility for determining fair value using the processes and factors as outlined in the valuation procedures. If SFIMC cannot determine fair value based on the valuation procedures, the Board or the Executive Committee of the Board will determine fair value.
Fair value is defined as the price that the Funds would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-tier hierarchy is used to classify fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in three broad levels as follows:
| — | | Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to the Funds for identical assets or liabilities. |
| — | | Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, interest rates, yield curves and credit spreads. For assets or liabilities with a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. |
| — | | Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available. These inputs, based on the best information available in the circumstances, would include reasonably available information about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability and might include SFIMC’s own data. |
To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or liability might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those cases, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
Stocks, closed-end registered investment companies and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) traded on securities exchanges, or in an over-the-counter market in which transaction prices are reported, are valued at the last sales price on the day of valuation or, if there are no reported sales on that day, at the last reported bid price for the day. Stocks traded on NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Long-term debt securities and U.S. Treasury bills are generally valued using quotations provided by an independent pricing service. Short-term debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less (other than U.S. Treasury bills) are generally valued on an amortized cost basis, which approximates market value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued each day based on the closing net asset value of the respective fund. Short sales, if any, are valued at market value.
Portfolio securities that are primarily traded on foreign securities exchanges (“foreign securities”) are valued at the closing values of such securities on the respective exchange where each security is primarily traded. SFIMC may determine that a market quotation for a foreign security held by a Fund is not reliable because of events or circumstances that have occurred between the time of the market quotation and the time the net asset value of the Fund is calculated (“subsequent event”). A subsequent event might include company-specific developments, a development that might affect an entire market or region, a potentially global development or a significant change in one or more U.S. securities indexes. If SFIMC determines that the market quotation for a foreign security is not reliable, SFIMC may determine the foreign security’s value in SFIMC’s reasonable judgment.
STATE FARM ASSOCIATES’ FUNDS TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
For securities other than foreign securities, for which market prices are not readily available or are considered unreliable, SFIMC is required to obtain bid price quotations from brokers or dealers in the securities. If SFIMC cannot obtain a quotation for the security or if SFIMC believes the quotation does not represent the security’s fair value, then SFIMC will determine the security’s value in SFIMC’s reasonable judgment.
In determining a value based on reasonable judgment, SFIMC may use different methodologies, including multiple of earnings, multiple of book value, discount from market of a similar freely traded security or, for debt securities, yield to maturity. Other factors SFIMC may consider in determining value for a security include, but are not limited to, fundamental analytical data relating to the security, the nature and duration of any restrictions on disposition of the security, the last traded price of the security, significant global or regional events such as political unrest, natural disasters, and war, and significant movements in major market indices, exchange traded funds, index futures or other financial instruments in the U.S. or other markets. All securities valued based on SFIMC’s reasonable judgment are subsequently reported to the Board on a quarterly basis.
SFIMC reviews the pricing methodologies of the Funds’ approved pricing vendors, including reviewing a vendor’s key inputs and assumptions in valuing securities. SFIMC also engages in transaction back-testing with respect to portfolio securities sold by the Funds to compare unrealized gains and losses to realized gains and losses.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used to value each Fund’s assets and liabilities as of November 30, 2013:

(a) Industry classification is disclosed in the Schedules of Investments. | | | | | | | |
The Funds did not hold any Level 3 securities or derivative instruments as of November 30, 2012 or for the year ended November 30, 2013. There were no transfers of securities between Level 1 and Level 2 as of November 30, 2013 as compared to November 30, 2012.
4. Income Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders
As of November 30, 2013, the Trust’s management completed a review of uncertain tax positions taken by the Funds, if any, and determined that no tax liability was required for unrecognized tax benefits, and no additional disclosures were needed. Generally, the tax authorities can initiate examinations of tax returns within the three year period beginning on the date such returns are filed. As a result, some tax returns are still open and subject to examination. In addition, as of November 30, 2013, management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
STATE FARM ASSOCIATES’ FUNDS TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
As of November 30, 2013, each Fund’s aggregate securities holdings’ unrealized gains and losses based on cost for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Cost of Investments for Federal Tax Purposes | | | Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | | Gross Unrealized (Depreciation) | | | Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) | |
Growth Fund | | | $1,185,313,666 | | | | $2,569,412,839 | | | | $ (442,859) | | | | $2,568,969,980 | |

Interim Fund | | | 380,742,935 | | | | 5,047,260 | | | | (1,904,174) | | | | 3,143,086 | |

The differences, if any, between the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes and the cost of investments reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and Schedules of Investments are primarily related to the timing of recognition of gains and losses and investment income.
The Growth Fund and Balanced Fund declare and pay income dividends, if any, at least annually. The Interim Fund and Municipal Bond Fund declare dividends daily equal to each Fund’s respective net investment income, and distributions of such amounts are made on the last business day of each month.
Net realized gains on sales of investments, if any, are distributed annually after the close of the Fund’s fiscal year. Dividends and distributions payable to shareholders are recorded by the respective Fund on the ex-dividend date.
On December 18, 2013, the Growth Fund declared an ordinary income dividend of $0.75775 per share to shareholders of record on December 17, 2013 (reinvestment date December 18, 2013).
On December 18, 2013, the Balanced Fund declared an ordinary income dividend of $0.86144 per share to shareholders of record on December 17, 2013 (reinvestment date December 18, 2013).
On December 18, 2013, the Municipal Bond Fund declared a capital gain distribution of $0.00811 per share to shareholders of record on December 17, 2013 (reinvestment date December 18, 2013).
After utilizing capital loss carryforwards to offset realized capital gains during the year ended November 30, 2013, the following Funds had unused capital loss carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes to be applied against future capital gains realized after November 30, 2013, if any. Future capital loss carryforward utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations. If not applied, the carryforwards will expire as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | Non Expiring | | | Year of Expiration | | | | |
| | Utilized | | | Short-term | | Long-term | | | 2014 | | | 2015 | | | 2016 | | | 2017 | | | 2018 | | | Total | |

Capital losses incurred on or after December 1, 2011 are permitted to carry forward indefinitely. These losses must be utilized prior to losses incurred before December 1, 2011. Therefore, any losses incurred prior to December 1, 2011 may be more likely to expire unused.

As of November 30, 2013, in accordance with federal tax regulations, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Undistributed Ordinary Income | | | Undistributed Long-term Gain | | | Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) | | | Accumulated Capital and Other Losses | | | Total | |
Growth Fund | | | $37,248,671 | | | | $ — | | | | $2,568,982,439 | | | | $(65,177,742) | | | | $2,541,053,368 | |
Balanced Fund | | | 18,317,557 | | | | — | | | | 642,279,482 | | | | (5,058,132) | | | | 655,538,907 | |

Municipal Bond Fund | | | — | | | | 598,337 | | | | 19,253,027 | | | | — | | | | 19,851,364 | |
The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to the recognition of net realized losses, the timing of Fund distributions, expiring capital loss carryforwards, and foreign currency transactions. As a result, net investment income and net realized gain or loss on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ from distributions during such period. Accordingly, each Fund may periodically make reclassifications among certain capital accounts without impacting its net asset value.
As of November 30, 2013, these reclassifications were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Paid in Capital | | | Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Loss) | | | Accumulated Undistributed Net Investment Income (Loss) | |
Growth Fund | | | $ — | | | | $242,997 | | | | $(242,997) | |
Balanced Fund | | | — | | | | (7,988) | | | | 7,988 | |
The tax character of distributions was designated as follows for the years ended November 30, 2013 and November 30, 2012, respectively:
| | | | | | | | |
2013 | | Tax-Exempt Income | | Ordinary Income | | Long-term Capital Gain | | Total |
Municipal Bond Fund | | $23,073,787 | | $39,826 | | $15,847 | | $23,129,460 |
| | | | | | | | |
2012 | | Tax-Exempt Income | | Ordinary Income | | Long-term Capital Gain | | Total |
Municipal Bond Fund | | $22,822,438 | | $220,876 | | $1,342,823 | | $24,386,137 |
For the remaining Funds, the tax distributions of ordinary income and long-term capital gains were the same as the distributions from net investment income and capital gains reflected in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended November 30, 2013 and November 30, 2012.

Certain officers and/or trustees of the Trust are also officers and/or directors of SFIMC. The Trust made no payments to its officers or trustees except for trustees’ fees paid to or accrued for the Trust’s independent trustees.
SFIMC reimbursed the Growth Fund $3,497 for a loss associated with a June 2013 trading error.
Expense Reduction Agreement
SFIMC has agreed to reimburse a Fund if, and to the extent, a Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding taxes, interest, extraordinary litigation expenses, brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs) exceed 0.40% of the Fund’s average net assets.
Line of Credit
State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company (“Auto Company”), the parent company of SFIMC, has entered into a Line of Credit Agreement with the Trust. Under that agreement, a Fund may request and Auto Company, in its complete discretion, may lend money to a Fund for up to 30 days on an unsecured basis. Auto Company will not lend more than $50 million at any one time to the Funds and to the other mutual funds advised by SFIMC. Under the agreement, a Fund will pay interest to Auto Company on any outstanding loan at a benchmark interest rate that approximates the rate that creditworthy corporate issuers pay on short-term commercial paper. The Funds did not borrow under the Line of Credit Agreement during the year ended November 30, 2013.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of the State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of State Farm Growth Fund, State Farm Balanced Fund, State Farm Interim Fund and State Farm Municipal Bond Fund, four funds comprising the State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust (the “Funds”), at November 30, 2013, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at November 30, 2013 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. The financial highlights of the Funds for the periods ended November 30, 2010 and prior were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report dated January 24, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights.

Mr. Latshaw and Ms. Nagler are “independent” as such term is defined in paragraph (a)(2) of Item 3 of Form N-CSR.
As indicated in Instruction 2(d) to Item 3 of Form N-CSR, a person who is determined to be an audit committee financial expert will not be deemed an “expert” for any purpose, including without limitation for the purposes of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as a result of being designated or identified as an audit committee financial expert pursuant to this Item 3 of Form N-CSR. The designation or identification of a person as an audit committee financial expert pursuant to this Item 3 of Form N-CSR does not impose on such person any duties, obligations, or liability that are greater than the duties, obligations, and liability imposed on such person as a member of the Audit Committee and board of trustees in the absence of such designation or identification. The designation or identification of a person as an audit committee financial expert pursuant to this Item 3 of Form N-CSR does not affect the duties, obligations, or liability of any other member of the Audit Committee or board of trustees.
