How did the Fund perform last year?
Longer-dated municipal bonds generally underperformed shorter-dated municipal bonds during the 12‑month period ended June 30, 2025 (the “Review Period”). Shorter-dated bonds benefited from cuts to the fed funds rate, while yields on the long end of the yield curve climbed (lower prices) in response to an unexpected rebound in consumer-price inflation.
The Fund provided a total return of ‑1.13% during the Review Period which was lower than the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index (the “Muni Index”) which provided a total return of 1.11%. The Fund’s underperformance was primarily due to the fact that it had an average nominal maturity of 15.91 years versus 13.30 years for the Muni Index. Additionally, unlike the Fund, the Muni Index does not reflect any expenses and/or transaction costs.
During the Review Period, the Fund’s use of its current investment strategies did not cause the Fund’s performance to deviate materially from the manager’s expectations. We do not plan to change the investment strategy of the Fund substantially in the upcoming year.

How did the Fund perform last year?
The Federal Reserve cut the fed funds rate on three separate occasions during the 12‑month period ended June 30, 2025 (the “Review Period”) causing Treasury yields to decline (prices higher) on the short and intermediate portions of the yield curve.
The Fund provided a total return of 4.86% during the Review Period which was lower than the Bloomberg Intermediate U.S. Government Bond Index (“Gov. Bond Index”) which provided a total return of 6.23%. The Fund’s underperformance was due primarily to the fact that it had a shorter duration of 2.28 years than the Gov Bond Index which had a duration of 3.54 years. Shorter-dated bonds which were anchored to par experienced less price appreciation than bonds with slightly longer durations.
During the Review Period, the Fund’s use of its current management strategy did not cause the performance to deviate materially from the manager’s expectations. We do not plan to change the investment strategy of the Fund substantially in the upcoming year.

Annual Shareholder Report: June 30, 2025
This annual shareholder report contains important information about the Taxable Municipal Bond Series (the “Fund”) for the period from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025.

How did the Fund perform last year?
Longer-dated taxable municipal bonds generally underperformed shorter-dated taxable municipal bonds during the 12‑month period ended June 30, 2025 (the “Review Period”). Shorter-dated bonds benefited from cuts to the fed funds rate, while yields on the long end of the yield curve climbed (lower prices) in response to an unexpected rebound in consumer-price inflation.
The Fund provided a total return of 4.00% during the Review Period which was lower than the Bloomberg Taxable Municipal Bond Index (“Taxable Muni Index”) which provided a total return of 5.54%. The Fund’s underperformance was due primarily to the fact that it had an average nominal maturity of 18.27 years versus 14.12 years for the Taxable Muni Index.
During the Review Period, the Fund’s use of its current investment strategy did not cause the performance to deviate materially from the manager’s expectations. We do not plan to change the investment strategy of the Fund substantially in the upcoming year.

ANNUAL REPORT

TO SHAREHOLDERS


ABOUT DUPREE MUTUAL FUNDS

In 1941, Dupree & Company, Inc. began business in Harlan, Kentucky as a small securities brokerage firm specializing in tax-exempt municipal bonds.

Over the years the firm, which in 1963 moved its offices to Lexington, Kentucky, grew to become a regional leader in public finance, helping to structure complex and innovative municipal bond financing for some of the largest public projects in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

In 1979, Dupree & Company began what is now Dupree Mutual Funds with the Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series and became the Fund’s investment adviser. The Fund was one of the first single-state municipal bond funds in the country, and the first mutual fund to invest solely in Kentucky municipal bonds. Since then, several new offerings have been added to the Dupree Mutual Funds family:

Intermediate Government Bond Series in 1992;

Tennessee Tax-Free Income Series in 1993;

North Carolina Tax-Free Income Series in 1995;

Alabama Tax-Free Income Series in 2000;

Mississippi Tax-Free Income Series in 2000;

and Taxable Municipal Bond Series in 2010.

Today, after more than 45 years in business, Dupree Mutual Funds continues to be a leader in the no-load single-state municipal bond space. No-load means simply that shares of the funds are offered directly to investors with no front or back-end sales charges, as opposed to load funds, which are sold through brokerage firms or other institutions and typically carry sales charges.

At Dupree Mutual Funds, our goal is a simple one: to offer investors a high-quality, low-cost way to invest in municipal and government bonds while providing superior service to our shareholders. We encourage you to let us know how we’re doing.

DUPREE MUTUAL FUNDS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2025

 

1.   Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Dupree Mutual Funds is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (“1940 Act”) as a no-load, open-end investment company. The Declaration of Trust of Dupree Mutual Funds (the “Trust”) permits the Trustees to create an unlimited number of series of investment portfolios (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) and with respect to each series to issue an unlimited number of full or fractional shares of a single class. The Trust currently offers seven series:

Alabama Tax-Free Income Series

Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series

Mississippi Tax-Free Income Series

North Carolina Tax-Free Income Series

Tennessee Tax-Free Income Series

Intermediate Government Bond Series

Taxable Municipal Bond Series

The investment strategy of each of the five state tax-free Funds is to invest exclusively in municipal securities issued by the states of Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina and Tennessee, respectively. Normally, each Fund’s assets will be invested so that (1) at least 80% of the income earned on the investments will be exempt from Federal and state income taxes or (2) at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets will be invested in securities exempt from Federal and state income taxes.

The Intermediate Government Bond Series’ investment strategy is to invest only in obligations of the U.S. Treasury and agencies of the U.S. Government. The Intermediate Government Bond Series will buy bonds and notes that will maintain an average maturity of no more than ten years, and its weighted average nominal maturity will normally range between 3-10 years.

The Taxable Municipal Bond Series’ investment strategy is to invest in taxable municipal bonds of investment grade quality.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Trust operates as an investment company, as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update 2013-08, and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies.”

The Funds operate as a single operating segment. Each Fund’s long-term strategic asset allocation is predetermined in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment strategy which is executed by the Fund’s portfolio managers as a team. Each Fund’s income, expenses, assets and performance are regularly monitored and assessed as a whole by certain officers of the Fund, acting as the Chief Operating Decision Maker “(the “CODM”). The CODM is responsible for the oversight functions of the Funds, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.

The Funds indemnify the Trust’s Officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which 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. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

At a meeting of the Trustees on December 18, 2024, the Trustees approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) providing for the transfer of all of the assets of the Kentucky Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series, the North Carolina Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series and the Tennessee Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series (collectively the “Short-to-Medium Series”) the Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series, the North Carolina Tax-Free Income Series and the Tennessee Tax Free Income Series (collectively the “Income Series”), respectively. The purpose of the reorganization was to combine funds with investment objectives that were identical and principal investment strategies that were substantially similar. The benefits of the Plan considered by the Trustees in approving the fund mergers included, but were not limited to, economies of scale related to trading, best execution, improved diversification, lower operating expenses, and performance.

1.   Organization and Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

 

The Reorganization, which was a non-taxable event for shareholders, closed as of the close of business on May 16, 2025. The Investment Adviser, Dupree & Company, Inc., bore 100% of the expenses relating to the Reorganization. Under the terms of the Plan, shareholders of each Short-to-Medium Series received shares of the corresponding Income Series equal in U.S. dollar value to the interests of such shareholders in the Short-to-Medium Series as of May 16, 2025. Additionally, the Short-to-Medium Series outstanding unrealized depreciation on investments balances as of May 16, 2025, in the amounts of $(364,668) for the Kentucky Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series, $(43,066) for the North Carolina Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series, and $(11,059) for the Tennessee Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series were transferred to the corresponding Income Series. For financial reporting purposes, all assets received and shares issued by the Income Series were recorded at fair value; however, the cost bases of the investments received were carried forward. The following table illustrates the specifics of the Reorganization:

     2,348,892        228,538        10.28                                

Because each combined investment portfolios has been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the Reorganization was completed, it is not practical to separate the amounts of the Short-to-Medium Series income that would have been included in the Short-to-Medium Series Statement of Operations since May 16, 2025. Assuming the Acquisition had been completed on July 1, 2024 (the beginning of the annual reporting period of the Short-to-Medium Series), the Funds’ pro forma results of operations for the current fiscal period would include net investment income of $21,705,849, $3,224,718, and $1,516,377 for the Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series, North Carolina Tax-Free Income Series and the Tennessee Tax Free Income Series respectively; a net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments of $(21,410,046), $(2,837,257) and $(1,915,564), respectively; and a net increase/(decrease) in assets resulting from operations of $295,803, $387,461 and $(399,186), respectively.

 

  A.

Security Valuation

In general, securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at current market value, as provided by independent third-party pricing agents. All other securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Funds’ Valuation Designee, Dupree & Company, Inc. (the “Valuation Designee”) in accordance with Board-approved policies and procedures (the “Valuation Procedures”). The Valuation Designee is responsible for, among other things, monitoring the value of the Funds’ securities. These procedures involve the use of matrix pricing models which take into consideration, among other factors, years to maturity, call date, coupon rate, trading patterns, creditworthiness, supply and demand dynamics, trading characteristics, special circumstances of a security or trading market, and any other factors or market data considered relevant in determining the value for securities. The procedures also include weekly verification of market quotations provided by two independent pricing services. A bond valuation that is not supported by the matrix pricing model requires the Valuation Designee to fair value the security in accordance with the Valuation Procedures. Pursuant to the Valuation Procedures, the Valuation Designee has the day-to-day responsibility for fair valuing the Trust’s securities or other assets. Securities valued by the Valuation Designee are reviewed by the Valuation Committee, which consists of all the Independent Trustees. Shares of open-end mutual funds in which the Funds invest, if any, are valued at their respective net asset values as reported by the underlying funds. The Funds have adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820 establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques giving the highest priority to readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets

DUPREE MUTUAL FUNDS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2025

 

1.   Organization and Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

 

(Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the hierarchy under ASC 820 are as follows:

 

Level 1:   Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2:   Prices determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs, either directly or indirectly, are inputs that other market participants may use in pricing a security. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and others.
Level 3:   Price determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or deemed less relevant (for example, where there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period), unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the Funds’ own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing a security, and would be based on the best information available.

The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2025, for the Funds’ investments is included at the end of the Funds’ Schedules of Portfolio Investments.

 

  B.

Investment Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on an identified cost basis.

 

  C.

Investment Income

Interest income, which includes the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts, is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts or premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted or amortized to interest income over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method.

 

  D.

When-Issued and Extended Settlement Securities

The Funds may purchase securities with delivery or payment to occur at a later date. At the time a Fund enters into a commitment to purchase a security, the transaction is recorded, and the value of the security is reflected in the net asset value. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations. No interest is accrued by the Fund until the security is delivered and payment takes place. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

 

  E.

Federal Income Taxes

It is each Fund’s policy to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies, including the distribution of all or substantially all taxable and tax-exempt income to their shareholders. The Funds have met the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies for the year ended June 30, 2025. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions for all open tax years and all major jurisdictions, and has concluded that as of June 30, 2025, no provision for income taxes is required in the financial statements. Therefore, no additional tax expense, including any interest and penalties, was recorded in the current year and no adjustments were made to prior periods. To the extent the Funds recognize interest and penalties, they are included in interest expense and other expenses, respectively, in the Statements of Operations. Open tax years are those that are open for examination by taxing authorities (i.e., generally the last three tax year ends and the interim tax period since then).

 

  F.

Distributions

Substantially all of the net investment income of the Funds is declared as a dividend to shareholders of record as of the close of business each day. Any net realized long term capital gains are distributed annually to shareholders. Distributions are payable in cash or in additional shares at the net asset value on the payable date. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP.

Estimates

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

 

  H.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent events occurring after June 30, 2025 have been evaluated by Dupree & Company, Inc. (the “Adviser”) for potential impact to this report through the date the financial statements were issued. The Adviser has determined that there were no material subsequent events that require recognition or disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.

 

2.   Fees and Transactions with Affiliates and Other Parties

Subject to the direction of the Trustees, the Adviser is responsible for the management of the Funds’ portfolios. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreements between the Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of each Fund (each a “Agreement” and collectively, the “Agreements”) each Fund (except the Intermediate Government Bond Series) have agreed to pay to the Adviser as compensation for all services rendered, facilities furnished and expenses paid or assumed by it under the Agreements, a fee at the annual rate of 0.50 of 1% of the first $100,000,000 average daily net assets of each Fund determined separately; 0.45 of 1% of the average daily net assets between $100,000,001 and $150,000,000 of each Fund determined separately; 0.40 of 1% of the average daily net assets between $150,000,001 and $500,000,000 of each Fund determined separately; 0.35 of 1% of the average daily net assets between $500,000,001 and $750,000,000 of each Fund determined separately; and 0.30 of 1% of the average daily net assets between $750,000,001 and $1,000,000,000 of each Fund determined separately; and 0.25 of 1% of the average daily net assets in excess of $1,000,000,000 of each Fund determined separately. The Intermediate Government Bond Series has agreed to pay to the Adviser, as compensation for all services rendered, facilities furnished and expenses paid or assumed by it under the Agreement, a fee at the annual rate of 0.20 of 1% of average daily net assets.

5.   Principal Risks

State-Specific Concentration of Credit Risk

The Alabama Tax-Free Income Series, Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series, Mississippi Tax-Free Income Series, North Carolina Tax-Free Income Series, and Tennessee Tax-Free Income Series each invest solely in debt obligations issued by the states of Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, and Tennessee, respectively,

Issuer Cybersecurity Risk

Municipalities issuing securities in which the Funds invest, counterparties with which the Funds engage or transact, exchange and other financial market operators, banks, brokers, dealers and other financial institutions may experience cybersecurity breaches. Cybersecurity breaches can include unauthorized access to systems, networks, or devices; infection from computer viruses of other malicious software code; ransomware; and attacks that shut down, disable, slow or otherwise disrupt operations, business processes, or website access or functionality. These breaches may result in harmful disruptions to their operations and may negatively impact the financial condition for the municipal issuer, counterparty or other market participant. The Funds and their shareholders could be negatively impacted as a result.

5.   Principal Risks, continued:

 

Interest Rate Risk

Typically, as interest rates rise, the price of municipal bonds will fall; conversely, municipal bond prices will rise when interest rates fall. In general, portfolios with longer average maturities are more sensitive to these price changes. You should expect a Fund’s share price and total return to fluctuate.

 

6.   Federal Income Taxes

At June 30, 2025, the Funds’ cost of investments for federal income tax purposes and the net unrealized depreciation of investments were as follows:

The Income Series are eligible to utilize these amounts to offset future capital gains subject to annual limitations under IRC Section 382.

The distributions from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are caused primarily due to the recognition of certain components of realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. Where such differences are permanent in nature, they are reclassified in the components of net assets based on their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations or net asset values per share of the Funds.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of

Dupree Mutual Funds

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of portfolio investments, of Dupree Mutual Funds, comprising Alabama Tax-Free Income Series, Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series, Mississippi Tax-Free Income Series, North Carolina Tax-Free Income Series, Tennessee Tax-Free Income Series, Intermediate Government Bond Series, and Taxable Municipal Bond Series (the “Funds”) as of June 30, 2025, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of June 30, 2025, the results of their operations, the changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits 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.

Our audits 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 included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2025, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. Our audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Funds’ auditor since 2021.
