PRIMECAP Odyssey Funds

 

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

For the six months ended April 30, 2022, the PRIMECAP Odyssey Stock Fund, PRIMECAP Odyssey Growth Fund, and PRIMECAP Odyssey Aggressive Growth Fund produced total returns of -7.63%, -13.93%, and -22.99%, respectively. The unmanaged S&P 500 Index produced a total return of -9.65% during the period.

The domestic economy experienced robust nominal GDP growth during the period. Another COVID-19 wave surfaced, threatening the country’s ongoing reopening; the omicron variant, however, which peaked in mid-January, proved more disruptive than destructive, and ultimately loosened COVID-19’s grip on society. Savings-rich consumers increasingly returned to pre-COVID-19 activities, forcing businesses into a hiring spree. Record-high job openings outnumbered job seekers two-to-one, reflecting an unprecedented imbalance between labor demand and supply, and the unemployment rate approached its pre-pandemic low.

And yet market sentiment worsened considerably, and equities faltered. Inflation at home and war in Europe replaced COVID-19 as primary concerns. The tight labor market’s elevated wage growth trailed price increases, and measures of consumer confidence declined. Last year’s high inflation spiked further, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) accelerating from 6.2% in October to March’s 8.5% reading, a 40-year high. This runaway inflation hastened the Federal Reserve’s dramatic hawkish pivot, featuring both aggressive rate hikes and balance sheet normalization. Meanwhile, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine not only laid bare unspeakable evil, but also aggravated global economic tensions, most obviously in the oil and gas complex.

Energy (+34%) unsurprisingly prospered in this environment, as crude oil prices climbed by more than a quarter and breached the $100 per barrel threshold for the first time since 2014. Defensive sectors, including consumer staples (+11%) and utilities (+8%), also fared well. But higher interest rates (the 10-year Treasury yield rose from 1.6% to 2.9%) and the prospect of recession weighed on both growth and cyclical stocks. Growth stocks meaningfully underperformed value stocks (the respective Russell 3000 indices declined 18% and 4%), with communication services (-28%) suffering most as fallen angels Netflix (-72%) and Meta Platforms (-38%) weighed on the sector. Several cyclical sectors also lagged the market, with consumer discretionary (-20%) tracking Amazon’s (-26%) tumble.

The Funds’ overall performance disappointed, as both the Growth Fund and Aggressive Growth Fund trailed the market. The investment landscape was especially inhospitable for growth-oriented portfolios, and the Funds’ bias towards smaller-capitalization stocks relative to the S&P 500 Index served as an additional large headwind. Indeed, adjusting for these factors, both Funds managed to outpace relevant size-specific, growth-centric indices.

Each of the Funds held an overweight position in the health care and industrials sectors, and an underweight position in the energy, real estate, consumer staples, communication services, materials, and utilities sectors. The Growth Fund was also underweight the financials, consumer discretionary, and information technology sectors; of these, the Stock Fund was overweight

financials while the Aggressive Growth Fund was overweight consumer discretionary and information technology.

A more detailed discussion of the results of each PRIMECAP Odyssey Fund follows.

PRIMECAP Odyssey Stock Fund

For the six months ended April 30, 2022, the Stock Fund’s total return of -7.63% led the S&P 500’s total return of -9.65%. Relative to the S&P 500, both sector allocation and stock selection benefited relative results.

The Fund’s sector positioning proved modestly favorable. The Stock Fund featured a sizable underweight position (3% of average assets versus a 10% benchmark weighting) in communication services, the worst-performing sector during the period (-28% benchmark return). A large overweight position in health care (23% versus 13%) similarly boosted results, as health care’s muted decline (-2% benchmark return) outpaced the market. Several headwinds, however, nearly offset these tailwinds. The Fund’s underweight position in energy (2% versus 3%) proved detrimental given that sector’s index-leading return (+34%), as did underweight positions in defensive sectors consumer staples (+11%) and utilities (+8%).

Favorable stock selection was the primary driver of outperformance during the period. Within health care, the Fund featured solid gains from key pharmaceutical holdings, most notably the Fund’s two largest positions, Eli Lilly (+16%) and AstraZeneca (+8%). Within communication services, the Fund benefited most from its limited exposure to the aforementioned Netflix (-72%) and Meta Platforms (-38%).

Selection elsewhere was mixed. The Fund’s third-largest holding, AECOM (+4%), more than offset the drag from another top holding, Siemens (-21%), in the industrials sector. Within consumer discretionary, Mattel’s (+11%) ongoing turnaround benefited results, as did limited exposure to laggard Amazon (-26%). These results more than offset a disappointing performance from Sony (-26%). In general, the Fund’s underweight position in so-called Big Tech stocks was broadly helpful during the period, but a notable exception was Apple (+6%), whose resilience weighed on relative results in the information technology sector.

PRIMECAP Odyssey Growth Fund

For the six months ended April 30, 2022, the Growth Fund returned -13.93%, behind the S&P 500’s -9.65% total return but ahead of the Russell 1000 Growth Index’s total return of -17.84%. Relative to the S&P 500, unfavorable stock selection more than offset favorable sector allocation.

The Growth Fund’s sector allocation benefit resembled that of the Stock Fund. A less pronounced underweight position in communication services (5% average weighting) reduced that particular tailwind, but an even larger overweight position in health care (29%) provided a comparable offset.

Stock selection, however, was unfavorable overall, as relative performance in health care and consumer discretionary flipped negative for the Growth Fund. Within health care, the Fund again owned several outperforming pharmaceutical companies, but incremental exposure to the biotechnology industry weighed on results, most notably Nektar (-73%) and BeiGene (-55%). And within consumer discretionary, sizable stakes in Alibaba (-41%), iRobot (-39%), and CarMax (-37%) detracted from Fund performance.

PRIMECAP Odyssey Aggressive Growth Fund

For the six months ended April 30, 2022, the Aggressive Growth Fund’s total return of -22.99% trailed the S&P 500’s total return of -9.65% but led the Russell Midcap Growth Index’s total return of -25.44%. Relative to the S&P 500, unfavorable stock selection was the primary driver of underperformance.

The Fund’s sector allocation was modestly worse than each of its Odyssey Fund peers, leading to a modest headwind overall. A slightly larger position – and thus reduced underweight – in communication services (6%) reduced that sector’s benefit. Meanwhile, a smaller position – and thus more pronounced underweight – in energy (1%) similarly hurt relative results.

Unfavorable stock selection was the primary culprit, however, more pronounced exposures to the Growth Fund’s sources of weakness were significant incremental headwinds. In general, the market’s rotation away from higher-multiple and smaller-capitalization growth stocks created an especially challenging environment for the Fund.

Health care selection was particularly problematic given the Aggressive Growth Fund’s outsized ownership of biotechnology stocks. BioNTech (-50%), Xencor (-37%), and Seagen (-26%) joined even larger positions in BeiGene and Nektar as significant detractors. Meanwhile, the

Outlook

On the eve of COVID-19 more than two years ago, the Funds were collectively unprepared for a pandemic. Of course, the Funds hold shares in individual companies, and underlying each company’s ownership is a distinct thesis – one that contemplates a variety of macroeconomic scenarios. But some overarching portfolio themes were especially unsuited for COVID-19’s arrival.

For instance, the Funds were significantly overweight travel and transportation companies, like airlines and cruise lines. Our deep contrarian ownership of these cyclical, capital-intensive companies – however inexpensive and undervalued they may have been – proved disastrous in early 2020. As another example, while we owned technology stocks pre-pandemic, we did not own so-called Big Tech. That is, the Funds owned semiconductor stocks in abundance (among others), but we had negligible exposure to goliaths Apple and Amazon – plus underweight positions in many of their largest peers. We expected regulation and competitive disruption to undermine the inevitability of these companies’ economic empires. The pandemic instead accelerated their ascendance in the marketplace – and amplified their valuations to boot.

Meanwhile, our reaction to the COVID-19 policy response has been surprise and skepticism. Surprise at the depth and duration of precautionary restrictions, and skepticism over the merits of unrelenting fiscal-monetary stimulus, provided in part as over-compensation for said restrictions. We had also noted unusual market complacency regarding the risk of inflation, and we viewed massive government intervention, robust economic growth, and near-zero interest rates as unsustainable. These perspectives, which informed our positioning, often kept us anchored against the pandemic’s tides – in other words, the market often moved against us.

With COVID-19’s sudden transition to endemic status, we expected a reversal in the Funds’ relative performance. Indeed, having long anticipated many of today’s developments – COVID-19’s fade, inflation’s surge, Big Tech’s slide – the Funds were well-positioned for a bounce. That bounce had not yet materialized through period-end.

But we have high conviction it will emerge. Perception often lags reality – and paradigm changes are rare. An entire generation of market actors knows just one model: low interest rates, low inflation, and a pliant Federal Reserve. Investors became undeniably (and understandably) smitten with the resultant bull market – they learned, with a “Fed put” as insurance, to just buy each dip, even amid the record-setting COVID-19 recession. Valuation for trendy stocks increasingly morphed from earnings-based to revenues-based, an eerie echo of dot-com euphoria.

Equity weakness of late suggests change is afoot. Conditions have abruptly flipped: rising interest rates, elevated inflation, and a fraught Federal Reserve. These tectonic shifts have jolted the market awake, and stocks have declined for seven weeks in a row, christening a new bear market. High-flying growth stocks have borne the brunt of the sell-off, but the risk of a potential consumer-led recession affects all companies. Fundamentals eventually matter.

To be clear, our expectation has not been a market collapse per se. We have conviction instead in the Funds’ more grounded relative positioning, as we had neglected to chase the market’s COVID-19 momentum. We also see significant opportunities in certain idiosyncratic exposures, like biotechnology and Chinese technology, following an extended period of underperformance.

Biotechnology has been an enduring Fund staple, most notably in the Growth and Aggressive Growth Funds. We subscribe to a multi-pronged view that modern health care is chronically underappreciated; that innovative companies’ novel treatments and therapies create massive incremental value; and that patient long-term ownership of these companies can absorb steep binary risks to deliver significant gains. Most recently, however, a rush of biotechnology-specific capital – private and public – created a deluge of lower-quality biotechnology companies. While the Funds have largely avoided these doomed offerings, we have not been immune from drug trial failures and other sources of asymmetric downside. And even our occasional winners have suffered from the resultant current of industry-specific pessimism. The XBI, a prominent biotechnology stock index, has more than halved since February 2021. And yet, amid this downturn, our broader thesis is unchanged, and we own many companies trading at unreasonably punitive valuations relative to their opportunity sets. This gaping mismatch between market pessimism and internal optimism implies massive built-in upside for the Funds.

Likewise, our stakes in large Chinese technology companies have fared poorly but are poised for outperformance. Alibaba and Baidu each declined roughly two-thirds from their peaks in late 2020 and early 2021, respectively. Alibaba, the so-called Amazon of China, lost some share in China’s competitive online marketplace, but remains the dominant player in both e-commerce and cloud services. Baidu, which more closely resembles Google, leads in search but also has powerful computing and artificial intelligence capabilities, including pole position in China’s autonomous driving race. But none of this has mattered. China’s aggressive regulatory crackdown coupled with zero-COVID-19 austerity panicked the market, trumping the long-term fundamental story. Despite their putative importance as homegrown technology heroes, both stocks now trade at single-digit price-to-earnings multiples (adjusted for cash and investments), an unthinkable scenario not long ago. We assess China’s extreme austerity as a risky and likely untenable strategy. In our opinion, when this moment passes, fundamentals should recover and multiples should heal, delivering a meaningful benefit to the Funds.

In short, the Funds started the pandemic offside and struggled throughout the COVID-19 era. Our investment approach is vulnerable to extended periods of underperformance; mistakes and misfortune sometimes conspire, and the last few years have included plenty of both. But we have high conviction much better days are ahead, and we see in the current market reckoning a potential paradigm shift under way. The Funds are well-positioned, and we are also searching for new opportunities amid the market carnage.

Sincerely,

PRIMECAP Management Company

Notes to Financial Statements

PRIMECAP Odyssey Funds

For the Six Months Ended April 30, 2022 (Unaudited)

 

(1)  Organization

PRIMECAP Odyssey Funds (the “Trust”) was organized on June 8, 2004 as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Trust is comprised of three series: PRIMECAP Odyssey Stock Fund, PRIMECAP Odyssey Growth Fund, and PRIMECAP Odyssey Aggressive Growth Fund (the “Funds”), each of which is diversified within the meaning of the 1940 Act. PRIMECAP Management Company (the “Investment Advisor”) serves as investment advisor to the Funds. Each Fund commenced operations on November 1, 2004.

Each Fund’s investment objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation. Each Fund is authorized to issue unlimited shares of beneficial interest. All shares of each Fund have equal rights with respect to voting. The PRIMECAP Odyssey Aggressive Growth Fund is closed to most new investors.

(2)  Significant Accounting Policies

The Funds consistently follow the accounting policies set forth below which are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Funds are considered investment companies under U.S. GAAP and follow the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Auditing Standards Codification Topic 946.

 

  A.

Security Valuation

Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price at the close of regular trading on each day the exchanges are open for trading. Securities traded on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price. Non-U.S. traded stocks are valued at the last sale price or official closing price in the primary local market where the stock is traded. Securities traded on an exchange for which there have been no sales are valued at the mean between the bid and ask price. Because trading on most non-U.S. exchanges is normally completed before the close of the New York Stock Exchange, the value of securities traded on foreign exchanges can change by the time a Fund calculates its net asset value per share (“NAV”). To address these changes, the Funds may utilize adjustment factors provided by an independent pricing service to systematically value foreign securities at fair value. These adjustment factors are based on statistical analyses of subsequent movement in securities indices, specific security prices, and exchange rates in foreign markets.

Securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at their respective fair values as determined in good faith by a valuation committee of the Investment Advisor in accordance with procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. In determining fair value, the Funds take into account all relevant factors and available information. Consequently, the price of a security used by a Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same security. Fair value pricing involves

PRIMECAP Odyssey Funds

 

For the Six Months Ended April 30, 2022 (Unaudited) – continued

 

subjective judgments, and there is no single standard for determining a security’s fair value. As a result, different mutual funds could reasonably arrive at a different fair value for the same security. It is possible that the fair value determined for a security is materially different from the value that could be realized upon the sale of that security or from the values that other mutual funds may determine.

Investments in other funds are valued at their respective net asset values as determined by those funds, in accordance with the 1940 Act.

 

  B.

Share Valuation

The NAV of a Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses), by the total number of outstanding shares of the Fund. The result is rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading.

 

  C.

Foreign Currency

Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates as of 4 p.m. Eastern time on the valuation date. Purchases and sales of investments and dividend and interest income are converted into U.S. dollars using the spot market rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such translations. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses may arise from 1) sales of foreign currencies; 2) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions; and 3) the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period. Foreign securities and currency transactions may involve risks not associated with U.S. securities and currency.

 

  D.

Federal Income Taxes

Each Fund has elected to be treated as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “IRC”). Each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and any accumulated net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the financial statements.

The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be reclaimed. The Funds will accrue such taxes and reclaims as applicable based upon their current interpretations of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which they invest.

Each Fund has adopted accounting standards regarding recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax

expense in the Statement of Operations. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. As of April 30, 2022, open tax years include the tax years ended October 31, 2018 through October 31, 2021. No Fund is aware of any tax positions for which it is more likely than not that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits or loss will significantly change in the next 12 months.

 

  E.

Allocation of Expenses

Each Fund is charged for those expenses directly attributable to it. Expenses that are not directly attributable to a Fund are allocated among the Funds by an appropriate method based on the nature of the expense.

 

  F.

Security Transactions, Investment Income, and Distributions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses are evaluated on the basis of identified costs. Premiums and discounts on the purchase of securities are amortized/accreted using the effective interest method. U.S. GAAP requires that permanent financial reporting and tax differences be reclassified in the capital accounts.

 

  G.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material.

 

  H.

Indemnification Obligations

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its current and former officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide general indemnifications. 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. Based on experience, the Funds would expect the risk of loss to be minimal.

 

  I.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On October 28, 2020, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted new regulations governing the use of derivatives by registered investment companies (“Rule 18f-4”). The Funds will be required to implement and comply with Rule 18f-4 by August 19, 2022. Once implemented, Rule 18f-4 will impose limits on the amount of derivatives a fund can enter into, eliminate the asset segregation framework currently used by funds to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act, treat derivatives as senior securities and require funds whose use of derivatives is more than a limited

specified exposure amount to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives risk management program and appoint a derivatives risk manager. The Funds currently do not invest in derivatives.

In December 2020, the SEC adopted a new rule providing a framework for fund valuation practices (“Rule 2a-5”). Rule 2a-5 establishes requirements for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. Rule 2a-5 will permit fund boards to designate certain parties to perform fair value determinations, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions. Rule 2a-5 also defines when market quotations are “readily available” for purposes of the 1940 Act and the threshold for determining whether a fund must fair value a security. In connection with Rule 2a-5, the SEC also adopted related recordkeeping requirements and is rescinding previously issued guidance, including with respect to the role of a board in determining fair value and the accounting and auditing of fund investments. The Funds will be required to comply with the rules by September 8, 2022. Management is currently assessing the potential impact of the new rules on the Funds’ financial statements.

(3)  Investment Transactions

The cost of purchases and the proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short-term investments, for the six months ended April 30, 2022 were as follows:

 

Fund

  Purchases      Sales  

Stock Fund

  $ 145,465,725      $ 944,254,788  

Growth Fund

  $ 190,380,018      $ 1,164,181,648  

Aggressive Growth Fund

  $ 188,636,384      $ 1,145,794,991  

(4)  Valuation Measurements

The Funds have adopted fair valuation accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set forth a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosure about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion of changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period. These standards define fair value as the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy is organized into three levels based upon the assumptions (referred to as “inputs”) used to value the asset or liability. These standards state that “observable inputs” reflect the significant assumptions that market participants would use in valuing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources. “Unobservable inputs” reflect the Funds’ own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use to value the asset or liability.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund’s investments, and the lowest level for any significant input determines leveling. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels below:

 

  Level 1 –

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities to which the Trust has access at the date of measurement.

 

 

  Level 2 –

Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar or related securities in both active and inactive markets, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and fair value estimates for foreign securities indices).

 

 

  Level 3 –

Significant unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are unavailable (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining fair value of investments based on the best available information).

 

The following table provides the fair value measurements of applicable Fund assets by level within the fair value hierarchy for each Fund as of April 30, 2022. These assets are measured on a recurring basis.

(8)  Other Matters

Significant market disruptions, such as those caused by pandemics (e.g., COVID-19 pandemic), natural or environmental disasters, war (e.g., Russia’s invasion of Ukraine), acts of terrorism, or other events, can adversely affect local and global markets and normal market operations. The ultimate economic fallout from these disruptions and the long-term impact on economies, markets, industries, and individual issuers, are not known. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which each Fund invests depends on future developments and may negatively impact the value of each Fund’s investments and lead to losses.

(9)  Subsequent Events

The Funds have evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of the financial statements and determined that no events have occurred that require disclosure.

Expense Example

PRIMECAP Odyssey Funds

(Unaudited)

 

As a shareholder of one or more of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs including management fees and other Fund expenses. This expense example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The expense example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested for a six-month period beginning November 1, 2021 through April 30, 2022.

Actual Expenses

The information in the table adjacent to the heading “Actual Performance” provides actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, 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 column entitled “Expenses Paid during Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The information in the table adjacent to the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Funds’ actual returns. 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 Funds and other mutual funds. To do so, compare these 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other mutual funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the information adjacent to the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different mutual funds. In addition, if transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Additional Information

Proxy Voting Procedures

The Investment Advisor votes proxies relating to portfolio securities in accordance with procedures that have been approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. You may obtain a description of these procedures, free of charge, by calling toll-free 1-800-729-2307. This information is also available through the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at www.sec.gov.

Proxy Voting Record

Information regarding how the Funds voted proxies relating to the portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available, without charge, by calling toll-free 1-800-729-2307. This information is also available through the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure

The Funds file a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Part F of Form N-PORT. This information is available, without charge, by calling toll-free 1-800-729-2307. The Funds’ Part F of Form N-PORT is also available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. The Funds’ Part F of Form N-PORT may be reviewed and copied at the Commission’s Public Reference Room in Washington, DC, and information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

Funds’ Liquidity Risk Management Program

The Funds have adopted and implemented a written liquidity risk management program (the “Program”) as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act. The Program is designed to assess and manage each Fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration the Fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its short and long-term cash flow projections; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources. The Funds’ Board of Trustees approved the appointment of PRIMECAP as the Funds’ liquidity risk management program administrator, which is responsible for the program’s administration and oversight and for reporting to the Board on at least an annual basis regarding the program’s operation and effectiveness. PRIMECAP has formed a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the “LRMC”) to monitor and implement the Program for each Fund. The LRMC consists of representatives from PRIMECAP’s operations, compliance and trading departments. The Trust’s CCO also participates in LRMC Meetings.

At the Funds’ Board Meeting in March 2022, the LRMC presented its annual assessment of the Program using data collected through January 31, 2022. In addition, the Board met with and received a presentation by representatives of the Funds’ liquidity data provider regarding the methodologies it uses to classify the liquidity of the Funds’ portfolio holdings. The purpose of the annual assessment of the Program was to assess the effectiveness of the Program’s operations and evaluate each Fund’s liquidity risk profile within the framework of the Program. With respect to each Fund, the report concluded that (i) the Fund should be able to meet reasonably anticipated shareholder redemptions, given the high level of highly liquid investments held by the Fund; (ii) the data received from the Fund’s liquidity data provider is credible and provides the data necessary to assess the Fund’s liquidity risk; (iii) the Program is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund’s liquidity risk; and (iv) the Program appears to be operating effectively.

Information an investor may give the Advisor or the Trust orally.

 

   

Information about the amount investors have invested in an account.

 

   

Information about any bank account investors may use for transfers between a bank account and a shareholder account.

The Advisor and the Trust will not sell or disclose client personal information to anyone except as permitted or required by law.

The Advisor or the Trust may also share this information with the Advisor’s or the Trust’s legal counsel, as deemed appropriate, and with regulators. Finally, the Advisor or the Trust may disclose information about clients or investors at the client’s or investor’s request (for example, by sending duplicate account statements to someone designated by the client or investor), or as otherwise permitted or required by law.

Within the Advisor and the Trust, access to information about clients and investors is restricted to those employees or service providers who need to know the information to service client accounts.

Background

In accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “SOX Act”) and the rules promulgated thereunder by the SEC, a RIC is required to file, on a semiannual basis, a report on Form N-CSR in which the RIC must disclose whether it has adopted, for the purposes set forth below, a code of ethics applicable to certain of its officers.

Such a code of ethics will govern the conduct of a RIC’s principal executive officer, the principal financial officer, the principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions (each a “Covered Officer” and collectively, “Covered Officers”), regardless of whether such persons are employed by the RIC or a third party for the purpose of promoting:

 

 

Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

 

 

Full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that a RIC files with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications by the RIC;

 

 

Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules, and regulations;

 

 

The prompt internal reporting of violations of the code of ethics to the appropriate persons as set forth in the code of ethics; and

 

 

Accountability for adherence to the code of ethics.

Each Covered Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as well as apparent conflicts of interest. All Covered Officers must become familiar and fully comply with the code of ethics.

Policies and Procedures

Conflicts of Interest

A “conflict of interest” occurs when a Covered Officer’s private interest interferes with the interests of, or his or her service to, the Funds. For example, a conflict of interest would arise if a Covered Officer receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position with the Funds.

Certain conflicts of interest may arise out of the relationships between Covered Officers and the Funds and already are subject to conflict of interest provisions in the IC Act and the Advisers Act. For example, Covered Officers may not individually engage in certain transactions (such as the purchase or sale of securities or other property) with the Funds because of their status as “affiliated persons” of a Fund.


Each Fund and certain of its Service Providers’ compliance programs and procedures are designed to prevent, or identify and correct, violations of these provisions. This code of ethics does not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace these programs and procedures, and such conflicts fall outside the parameters of this code of ethics. Rather, this code of ethics (the “SOX Code”) is intended to address the Covered Officers’ obligations under the SOX Act.

Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal benefit, conflicts may arise from, or as a result of, the contractual relationship between the Funds and their investment adviser, principal underwriter, or administrator (each an “Employer”) of which the Covered Officers may be officers or employees. As a result, this SOX Code recognizes that the Covered Officers will, in the normal course of their duties (whether for the Funds or an Employer), be involved in establishing policies and implementing decisions that will have different effects on the Employer and the Funds. The participation of the Covered Officers in such activities is inherent in the contractual relationships between the Funds and the Employers and is consistent with the performance by the Covered Officers of their duties as officers of the Funds. Thus, if performed in conformity with the provisions of the IC Act and the Advisers Act, such activities normally will be deemed to have been handled ethically. In addition, it is recognized by the Board that the Covered Officers may also be officers or employees of one or more other investment companies covered by this SOX Code or other codes of ethics.

Other conflicts of interest are covered by the SOX Code, even if such conflicts of interest are not subject to provisions in the IC Act and the Advisers Act. While it is impossible to describe all conflicts that may arise, a conflict should be considered to exist whenever a Covered Officer participates, directly or indirectly, in any material investment, interest, association, activity, or relationship that a reasonable observer would view as likely to impair the Covered Officer’s objectivity. Disclosure of conflicts should be made to the CCO or other appropriate senior executive or to a member of the Board. Covered Officers that are unsure whether a particular fact pattern gives rise to a conflict of interest or whether a particular transaction or relationship is “material” should bring such matter to the attention of the CCO.

Disclosure Documents and Compliance

Covered Officers must not knowingly make any misrepresentations regarding the Funds’ financial statements or any facts in the preparation of the Funds’ financial statements and must comply with all applicable laws, standards, principles, guidelines, rules, and regulations in the preparation of the Funds’ financial statements. This section is intended to prohibit an officer from knowingly:

 

  1)

Making, or permitting or directing another to make, materially false or misleading entries in the Funds’ financial statements or records;

 

  2)

Failing to correct the Funds’ financial statements or records that are materially false or misleading when he or she has the authority to record an entry; and

 

  3)

Signing, or permitting or directing another to sign, a document containing materially false or misleading financial information.

Each Covered Officer:

 

  1)

Should familiarize himself or herself with the disclosure requirements generally applicable to the Funds;

 

  2)

Should not knowingly misrepresent, or cause others to misrepresent, facts about the Funds to others, including to the Board, auditors, governmental regulators, or self-regulatory organizations;


  3)

Should promote full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents the Funds file with, or submit to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Funds; and

 

  4)

Has the responsibility to promote compliance with the standards and restrictions imposed by applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

Reporting of Violations and Sanctions

Covered Officers should promptly report any conduct or actions by themselves or another Covered Officer that do not comply or otherwise violate this SOX Code to the CCO. The CCO is charged with investigating any allegation and will report his or her findings and recommendations to the Board’s Audit Committee. If the Audit Committee concludes that the Covered Officer has violated this SOX Code, it may impose appropriate sanctions, including:

 

  1)

A reprimand;

 

  2)

Disgorgement of any profit or restitution of any loss;

 

  3)

Imposition of additional controls and procedures;

 

  4)

Suspension;

 

  5)

Termination; and

 

  6)

Any other measure that the Audit Committee may decide is appropriate under the circumstances, including notifying regulatory authorities.

Any matter that the Audit Committee believes is a material violation will be promptly reported to the Board.

A Covered Officer must not retaliate against any other Covered Officer or any employee or agent of an affiliated person of the Funds for good faith reports of potential violations.

Accountability of Covered Officers

Each Covered Officer must:

 

  1)

Upon adoption of the SOX Code (or thereafter as applicable, upon becoming a Covered Officer), affirm in writing (in the form attached Exhibit A to this policy) to the Board that he or she has received, read, and understands the SOX Code; and

 

  2)

Annually thereafter affirm (in the form attached as Exhibit B to this policy) to the Board that he or she has complied with the requirements of the SOX Code.

Other Policies and Procedures

This SOX Code shall be the sole code of ethics adopted by the Funds for purposes of Section 406 of the SOX Act and the rules and forms applicable to RICs thereunder. Insofar as other policies or procedures of the Funds, the Employers, or other Service Providers govern or purport to govern the behavior or activities of the Covered Officers who are subject to this SOX Code, they are superseded by this SOX Code to the extent that they overlap or conflict with the provisions of this SOX Code. The Funds and any Employer code of ethics under Rule 17j-1 under the IC Act are separate requirements applying to the Covered Officers and others and are not part of this SOX Code.


Amendments

The Board may from time to time amend this SOX Code or adopt such interpretations of this SOX Code as they deem appropriate. Any amendments to this SOX Code will be provided to the Covered Officers.

Internal Use and Confidentiality

All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to this SOX Code shall be treated as confidential and shall not be disclosed to anyone other than the Board, the Covered Officers, and Fund Counsel, except as otherwise requested in accordance with applicable law.

The SOX Code is intended solely for the internal use by the Funds and does not constitute an admission, by or on behalf of the Funds, as to any fact, circumstance, or legal conclusion.
