Report to Shareholders. SMALL CAP VALUE FUND, INC. ANNUAL REPORT DECEMBER 31, 2018 Small Cap Value Fund, Inc. 8150 N. Central Expressway #M1120 Dallas, Texas 75206 1-800-704-6072 Fund Symbol: SCAPX Dear shareholders of Small Cap Value Fund, Inc., The Fund began 2018 with a Net Asset Value per share of $49.04 and ended with a Net Asset Value per share of $38.99 after paying total dividends and capital gains of $0.985 per share. The total return of the Fund for 2018 was down 18.43% versus down 8.52% for the S&P 600 Index, down 11.03% for the Russell 2000 Small Cap Index and down 12.84% for the Ishares S&P 600 value etf. It should be noted that the Fund outperformed the S&P 600 Index by about 15% in 2017 last year. Small Cap growth stocks outperformed value stocks in 2018 and this was our largest headwind as we have a value oriented strategy. Our holdings in LCI, LKSD and SWM also contributed to underperformance relative to the Indices. The Fund continues to hold what we feel are very high quality companies with stable cash flows and relatively transparent balance sheets. Fund turnover was 63.30%, which is higher than we would normally expect, but there was no meaningful net capital gain generated as we offset winners with losers and thus no tax implications. Brokerage costs are negligible. The top holdings and industry group exposures of the Fund as of December 31, 2018 are listed on the following page. We look forward to a prosperous year in 2019.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY The graph below represents the changes in value for an initial $100,000 investment in the Small Cap Value Fund from its inception(the beginning of investment operations), December 16, 2005 through December 31, 2018. These changes are then compared to a $100,000 investment in the S&P 600 Small Cap Index for the same period but do not reflect deduction for taxes that a shareholder would pay on distributions or redemption of Fund shares. Returns shown include the reinvestment of all dividends. Past performance is not predictive of future performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

EXPENSES DECEMBER 31, 2018 As a shareholder of the Fund you incur ongoing costs including management fees, transaction costs, potential early redemption fess and other operating expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. This example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on June 30, 2018 and held for the entire six month period to December 31, 2018. Actual Expenses The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested at the beginning of the period, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,500 account value divided by $1,000 equals 8.5), then multiply this 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 the Fund to other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only. Expenses Paid Beginning Ending During Period* Account Value Account Value June 30, 2018, June 30, 2018 December 31, 2018 December 31, 2018 ----------------- ------------ ----------------- Actual $ 1,000.00 $ 773.36 $ 4.25 Hypothetical** $ 1,000.00 $ 1,020.00 $ 4.84 *Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 0.95%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184 days/365 days to reflect the one-half year period. ** Hypothetical return assumes 5% return before expenses.

(the ?Fund?) was incorporated in the State of Texas on June 16, 2005 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve growth by investing primarily in small capitalization common stocks. The effective date of the Fund?s Registration under the Securities Act of 1933 was October 27, 2005. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. The Fund?s significant estimates include primarily the fair value of investments. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Security Valuation Securities listed on a national securities exchange or in the over- the-counter market are valued at the last quoted sales price on the day of valuation, or if no quoted sales price was reported on that date, the last quoted bid price. Short-term investments are valued at cost which approximates fair value. Securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at their estimated fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund?s Board of Directors. Securities Transactions and Investment Income Securities transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis of the securities sold. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from the appreciation and depreciation of securities carrying values are included in the statement of operations. Distribution of Income and Gains The Fund declares and pays dividends annually from net investment income and from net realized gains, if any. Distributions from realized gains for book purposes may include short-term capital SMALL CAP VALUE FUND, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS gains, which are included in ordinary income for tax purposes. Dividends are paid upon Board approval by the end of each calendar year. 2.	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Federal Income Taxes The Fund?s policy is to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income, including any realized gains on investments, to its shareholders. The Fund also intends to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that it will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains. Therefore, no federal income tax or excise provision is required. Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses) and the cost of investments in securities may differ for financial statement and income tax purposes. The character of distributions from net investment income (loss) or net realized gains (losses) may differ from their ultimate characterization for income tax purposes. At December 31, 2018, there were no material differences. Also, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year that the income or realized gains were recorded by the Fund. Subsequent events Subsequent events were evaluated through February 18, 2019, the date the financial statements were available for issuance. SMALL CAP VALUE FUND, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 3. FAIR VALUE OF INVESTMENTS In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (?GAAP?), fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP also establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. Each investment is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below. Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. Level 2 - observable inputs, other than quoted prices (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) The following table summarizes the valuation of the Fund's investments by the above fair value hierarchy levels as of December 31, 2018: Investments Other in Financial Level Securities Instruments * ----- ---------- ------------ Level 1: Common Stock $19,044,542 $ 0 Short term investments 261,806 0 ----------- ------------ Total Level 1: 19,306,348 0 Level 2 0 0 Level 3 0 0 ----------- ------------ Total $19,306,348 $ 0 =========== ============ * Other financial instruments are derivative instruments not reflected in the Portfolio of Investments, such as futures forwards and swap contracts, which are valued at the unrealized appreciation depreciation on the instrument. As of December 31, 2018, the Fund did not own any other financial instruments. SMALL CAP VALUE FUND, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 3. FAIR VALUE OF INVESTMENTS (continued) Transfers between levels are recognized at the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers between level 1 and level 2 during the year. There were no level 3 investments held by the Fund during the year ended December 31, 2018. 4.

INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities, excluding short-term investments, aggregated $14,698,657 and $14,705,362, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2018. 6. TAX MATTERS Income and long-term capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. On December 21, 2018, the Fund paid an income distribution of $0.7526 per share to shareholders of record on December 20, 2018 for a total distribution of $363,356, and a long-term capital gain distribution of $0.2324 per share for a total distribution of $112,219.

SMALL CAP VALUE FUND, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 6. TAX MATTERS (continued) The Fund?s distributable earnings on a tax basis are determined only at the end of each fiscal year. As of December 31, 2018, the Fund?s most recent fiscal year-end, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows: Unrealized Depreciation $(1,347,297) Undistributed Realized Long-Term Gains $ 0 Undistributed Ordinary Income $ 0 ---------- Total Distributable Earnings, Net $(1,347,297) As of December 31, 2018, the tax basis components of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and cost of investments were as follows: Gross tax appreciation of investments $ 1.066,811 Gross tax depreciation of investments $ (2,414,108) ------------ Net tax appreciation of investments $ (1,347,297) Federal tax cost of investments, including short-term investments $ 20,653,644 As of December 31, 2018, open Federal tax years, subject to examination, include the tax years ended December 31, 2016 through December 31, 2018. As of and during the year ended December 31, 2018, the Fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund has no examination in progress and is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total tax amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. 7. ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES The Fund and the Advisor are under common control and the existence of that control may create operating results and financial position different than if they were autonomous. The Fund has an investment advisory agreement with Adams Asset Advisors, LLC (the ?Advisor?) to provide investment advisory services to the Fund. Steven Adams is the managing member of the Advisor and is an officer and shareholder of the Fund and his wife, Laura S. Adams is a director of the Fund. Under the terms of the agreement, the Fund will pay the Advisor a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.95% of the Fund?s average daily net assets. The fee is computed daily and payable monthly. The Advisor has contractually agreed to pay all operating expenses of the Fund, except brokerage fees and commissions, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses. The advisory fee for 2018, as computed pursuant to the investment advisory agreement, totaled $223,136, of which $15,936 was payable on December 31, 2018. The Advisor acts as the transfer agent for the Fund, with Fidelity Investments as the sub-transfer agent. There are no fees associated with these services. The Fund acts as its own custodian, effective September 1, 2008, and is in compliance per requirements of Rule 17f-2. There are no fees associated with these services. 8. Redemption Fee To discourage short-term trades by investors and to compensate the Fund for costs that may be incurred by such trades, the Fund may impose a redemption fee of 2% of the total redemption amount if shares are held less than 365 days. For the year ended December 31, 2018, there were no redemption fees received by the Fund.

Approval of Investment Advisory Contract At an in-person meeting held on January 18, 2019, the Board of Directors, including a majority of Directors that are not "interested" persons of the Fund(as the term is defined in the 1940 Act), re- approved the Advisory Agreement based upon its review of the qualitative and quantitative information provided by the Investment Advisor. The Directors considered, among other things, the following information regarding the Investment Advisor: 1)	Nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Advisor ? The Directors reviewed the nature, quality and scope of current services provided by the Advisor under the Advisory Agreement. The Directors also analyzed the experience of the Investment Advisor and capabilities as a portfolio manager, noting that the Advisor has managed separate account portfolios successfully with assets far in excess of the Fund?s NAV for decades. The Advisor?s Form ADV was reviewed as well as internal compliance policies and experience managing other portfolios. In addition, the portfolio and brokerage transactions were reviewed. Based on this review, the Directors concluded that the range and quality of services to be provided by the Investment Advisor to the Fund were appropriate and to support the selection of the original Investment Advisor. 2)	Investment performance ? The Directors reviewed the performance of the Fund as compared to market benchmarks for various time periods. This review focused on investment strategy and long term performance potential. In 2018 the Fund was down 18.43% versus the S&P 600 Small Cap Index down 8.50% and the Ishares S&P 600 value etf down 12.84%. In 2017 the Fund was up 28.18% versus the S&P 600 Small Cap Index up 13.14%. The Directors concluded that the performance of the Fund, both short term and long term, managed by the Investment Advisor, was satisfactory. 3)	Cost of services to the Fund and profitability of the Advisor ? The Directors considered the Fund?s management fee and total expense ratio relative to industry averages. The Directors determined that the Advisor is receiving a fee (0.95%) that is in line with fees charged for other funds and that the Advisor is operating profitability, is viable and should remain an ongoing entity. The Directors also noted that the Advisor is paying all expenses (except transaction commissions) associated with managing the Fund out of the management fee, which is very advantageous to shareholders versus other funds. 4)	Economies of Scale ? The Directors considered information regarding economies of scale with respect to management of the Fund and noted that the Fund and its shareholders are already experiencing and benefitting from an expense ratio (0.95%) that would be expected from that of funds with significantly larger asset bases. 5)	Conclusions ? Based on the above review and discussions, the Directors concluded that it is in the best interest of the Fund and the shareholders to approve the Advisory Agreement.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Small Cap Value Fund, Inc.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2018 and the results of its operations and its changes in net assets for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We conducted our audit of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund?s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures also included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2018 by correspondence with the custodian and others; when replies were not received, we performed other appropriate auditing procedures. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. /s/ Turner, Stone & Company, L.L.P.
