1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AMG Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company, organized as a Massachusetts business trust, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Currently, the Trust consists of a number of different funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Included in this report are: AMG GW&K Small Cap Core Fund (“Small Cap Core”), AMG GW&K Small Cap Value Fund (“Small Cap Value”) and AMG GW&K Small/Mid Cap Core Fund (“Small/Mid Cap Core”), each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”.
Each Fund offers Class N shares, Class I shares and Class Z shares. Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the respective Fund. Although all share classes generally have identical voting rights, each share class votes separately when required by law. Different share classes may have different net asset values per share to the extent the share classes pay different distribution amounts and/or the expenses of such share classes differ. Each share class has its own expense structure. Please refer to a current prospectus for additional information on each share class.
The Funds’ financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), including accounting and reporting guidance pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies. 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements:
a. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
Equity securities traded on a national securities exchange or reported on the NASDAQ national market system (“NMS”) are valued at the last quoted sales price on the primary exchange or, if applicable, the NASDAQ official closing price or the official closing price of the relevant exchange or, lacking any sales, at the last quoted bid price. Equity securities held by the Funds that are traded in the over-the-counter market (other than NMS securities) are valued at the bid price. Foreign equity securities (securities principally traded in markets other than U.S. markets) held by the Funds are valued at the official closing price on the primary exchange or, for markets that either do not offer an official closing price or where the official closing price may not be representative of the overall market, the last quoted sale price.
Fixed income securities purchased with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, provided that the amortized cost value is approximately the same as the fair value of the security valued without the use of amortized cost. Investments in other open-end registered investment companies are valued at their end of day net asset value per share.
The Funds’ portfolio investments are generally valued based on independent market quotations or prices or, if none, “evaluative” or other market based valuations provided by third party pricing services. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) designated AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) as the Funds’ Valuation Designee to perform the
Funds’ fair value determinations. Such determinations are subject to Board oversight and certain reporting and other requirements intended to ensure that the Board receives the information it needs to oversee the Investment Manager’s fair value determinations.
Under certain circumstances, the value of certain Fund portfolio investments may be based on an evaluation of fair value, pursuant to procedures established by the Investment Manager and under the general supervision of the Board. The Funds may use the fair value of a portfolio investment to calculate its net asset value (“NAV”) in the event that the market quotation, price or market based valuation for the portfolio investment is not readily available or otherwise not determinable pursuant to the Funds’ valuation procedures, if the Investment Manager believes the quotation, price or market based valuation to be unreliable, or in certain other circumstances. When determining the fair value of an investment, the Investment Manager seeks to determine the price that the Funds might reasonably expect to receive from current sale of that portfolio investment in an arms-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon consideration of all available facts and information, including, but not limited to (i) attributes specific to the investment; (ii) fundamental and analytical data relating to the investment; and (iii) the value of other comparable securities or relevant financial instruments, including derivative securities, traded on other markets or among dealers.
The values assigned to fair value portfolio investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized in the future, since such amounts depend on future developments inherent in long-term investments. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and the differences could be material. The Board will be presented with quarterly reports, as of the most recent quarter end, summarizing all fair value activity, material fair value matters that occurred during the quarter, and all outstanding securities fair valued by the Funds. Additionally, the Board will be presented with an annual report that assesses the adequacy and effectiveness of the Investment Manager’s process for determining the fair value of the Funds’ investments.
With respect to foreign equity securities, securities held in the Funds that can be fair valued by the applicable fair value pricing service are fair valued on each business day provided that each individual price exceeds a pre-established confidence level.
U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. 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 Funds. Unobservable inputs reflect the Funds’ 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 – inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical investments (e.g., equity securities, open-end investment companies)

Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs) (e.g., debt securities, government securities, foreign securities utilizing international fair value pricing, fair valued securities with observable inputs)
Level 3 – inputs are significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments) (e.g., fair valued securities with unobservable inputs)
Changes in inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may result in a transfer in or out of levels within the fair value hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may not necessarily be an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments.
b. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS
Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
c. INVESTMENT INCOME AND EXPENSES
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from foreign securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date, and if after the fact, as soon as the Funds become aware of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is accrued as earned. Dividend and interest income on foreign securities is recorded gross of any withholding tax. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are reported at the fair market value of the securities received. Upon notification from the issuer, distributions received from a real estate investment trust (REIT) may be redesignated as a reduction of cost of investments and/or realized gain. Other income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Expenses that cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are apportioned among the funds in the Trust and other funds within the AMG Funds Family of Funds (collectively, the “AMG Funds Family”) based upon their relative average net assets or number of shareholders. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of each Fund, and certain fund level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of each Fund.
The Funds had certain portfolio trades directed to various brokers under a brokerage recapture program. Credits received from the brokerage recapture program are earned and paid on a monthly basis, and are recorded as expense offsets, which serve to reduce the Fund’s overall expense ratio. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the impact on the expenses and expense ratios was as follows: Small Cap Core $18,065 or less than 0.01%, Small Cap Value $19,096 or
0.01% and Small/Mid Cap Core $10,015 or less than 0.01%.
d. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Fund distributions resulting from either net investment income or realized net capital gains, if any, will normally be declared and paid at least annually in
December. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax law, which may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains for financial statement purposes (U.S. GAAP). Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Permanent book and tax basis differences, if any, relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense and gain or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Permanent differences for each Fund are primarily due to equalization utilized. Temporary differences for each Fund are due to wash sale loss deferrals.
At June 30, 2026, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes approximates the aggregate cost for book purposes. The approximate cost of investments and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
| Fund | Cost | Appreciation | Depreciation | Net Appreciation | ||||||||||||
| Small Cap Core |
$518,598,066 | $293,288,500 | $(37,549,091) | $255,739,409 | ||||||||||||
| Small Cap Value |
153,143,457 | 88,796,956 | (3,416,373) | 85,380,583 | ||||||||||||
| Small/Mid Cap Core |
551,909,038 | 299,946,222 | (27,793,217) | 272,153,005 | ||||||||||||
e. FEDERAL TAXES
Each Fund currently qualifies as an investment company and intends to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and gains to its shareholders and to meet certain diversification and income requirements with respect to investment companies. The Investment Manager has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (generally, the three prior taxable years), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Additionally, the Investment Manager is not aware of any tax position for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefit/detriment will change materially in the next twelve months.
Furthermore, based on each Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and transactions for the foreign jurisdictions in which it invests, each Fund will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign taxes.
f. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYOVERS AND DEFERRALS
As of December 31, 2025, the Funds had no capital loss carryovers for federal income tax purposes. Should the Funds incur net capital losses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026, such amounts may be used to offset future realized capital gains indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term.

g. CAPITAL STOCK
The Trust’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust authorizes for each applicable Fund the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, without par value. Each Fund records sales and repurchases of its capital stock on the trade date.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026 (unaudited) and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the capital stock transactions by class for the Funds were as follows:

At June 30, 2026, one unaffiliated shareholder of record held 6% of the net assets of Small/Mid Cap Core. Transactions by this shareholder may have a material impact on the Fund.
h. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Funds may enter into third-party and bilateral repurchase agreements for temporary cash management purposes and for reinvestment of cash collateral on securities lending transactions under the securities lending program offered by The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”) (the “Securities Lending Program”) (collectively, “Repurchase Agreements”). The value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest, must equal or exceed the value of the Repurchase Agreements during the term of the agreement. For joint repurchase agreements, the Funds participate on a pro rata basis with other clients of BNYM in their share of the underlying collateral under such joint repurchase agreements and in their share of proceeds from any repurchase or other disposition of the underlying collateral. The underlying collateral for all Repurchase Agreements is held by the Funds’ custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited. Pursuant to the Securities Lending Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by BNYM on joint repurchase agreements.
At June 30, 2026, the market value of Repurchase Agreements outstanding for Small Cap Core, Small Cap Value and Small/Mid Cap Core was $18,610,019, $2,518,000 and $24,774,448, respectively.
2. AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
For each of the Funds, the Trust has entered into an investment advisory agreement under which the Investment Manager, a subsidiary and the U.S. wealth platform of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“AMG”), serves as investment manager to the Funds and is responsible for the Funds’ overall administration and operations. The Investment Manager selects and recommends, subject to the approval of the Board and, in certain circumstances, shareholders, the subadviser for the Funds and monitors the subadviser’s investment performance, security holdings and investment strategies. Each Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by GW&K Investment Management, LLC (“GW&K”), who serves as subadviser pursuant to a subadvisory agreement with the Investment Manager. AMG indirectly owns a majority interest in GW&K.
Investment management fees are paid directly by the Funds to the Investment Manager based on average daily net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Funds’ investment management fees were paid at the following annual rates of each Fund’s respective average daily net assets:
| Small Cap Core |
0.70% | |
| Small Cap Value |
0.70% | |
| Small/Mid Cap Core |
0.62% | |
The fee paid to GW&K for its services as subadviser is paid out of the fee the Investment Manager receives from each Fund and does not increase the expenses of each Fund.
The Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through at least May 1, 2027, to waive management fees and/or pay or reimburse fund expenses in order to limit total annual Fund operating expenses after fee waiver and expense
reimbursements (exclusive of taxes, interest (including interest incurred in connection with bank and custody overdrafts, and in connection with securities sold short), shareholder servicing fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, brokerage commissions and other transaction costs, dividends payable with respect to securities sold short, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary expenses) of Small Cap Core, Small Cap Value and Small/Mid Cap Core to the annual rate of 0.90%, 0.90% and 0.82%, respectively, of each Fund’s average daily net assets (this annual rate or such other annual rate that may be in effect from time to time, the “Expense Cap”), subject to later reimbursement by the Funds in certain circumstances.
In general, for a period of up to 36 months after the date any amounts are paid, waived or reimbursed by the Investment Manager, the Investment Manager may recover such amounts from a Fund, provided that such repayment would not cause the Fund’s total annual operating expenses after fee waiver and expense reimbursements (exclusive of the items noted in the parenthetical above) to exceed either (i) the Expense Cap in effect at the time such amounts were paid, waived or reimbursed, or (ii) the Expense Cap in effect at the time of such repayment by the Fund.
The contractual expense limitation may only be terminated in the event the Investment Manager or a successor ceases to be the investment manager of a Fund or a successor fund, by mutual agreement between the Investment Manager and the Board, or in the event of a Fund’s liquidation unless the Fund is reorganized or is a party to a merger in which the surviving entity is successor to the accounting and performance information of a Fund.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Investment Manager’s expense reimbursements, and repayments of prior reimbursements by the Funds to the Investment Manager, if any, are as follows:
| Expense | Repayment of | |||
| Reimbursements | Prior Reimbursements | |||
| Small Cap Core | $143 | — | ||
| Small Cap Value | 48,413 | — | ||
| Small/Mid Cap Core | 3,443 | — | ||
At June 30, 2026, the Funds’ expiration of reimbursements subject to recoupment is as follows:
| Expiration | ||||||||||||
| Period | Small Cap Core | Small Cap Value | Small/Mid Cap Core | |||||||||
| Less than 1 year | $59,764 | $100,560 | $61,506 | |||||||||

The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, has entered into an amended and restated Administration Agreement under which the Investment Manager serves as the Funds’ administrator (the “Administrator”) and is responsible for certain aspects of managing the Funds’ operations, including administration and shareholder

|
| ||
services to each Fund. Each Fund pays a fee to the Administrator at the rate of 0.15% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets for this service.
The Funds are distributed by AMG Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Manager. The Distributor serves as the distributor and underwriter for each Fund and is a registered broker-dealer and member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”). Shares of each Fund will be continuously offered and will be sold directly to prospective purchasers and through brokers, dealers or other financial intermediaries who have executed selling agreements with the Distributor. Generally, the Distributor bears all or a portion of the expenses of providing services pursuant to the distribution agreement, including the payment of the expenses relating to the distribution of prospectuses for sales purposes and any advertising or sales literature.
The Trust has adopted a distribution and service plan (the “Plan”) with respect to the Class N shares of each Fund, except Small Cap Value, in accordance with the requirements of Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act and the requirements of the applicable rules of FINRA regarding asset-based sales charges. Pursuant to the Plan, each Fund, except Small Cap Value, may make payments to the Distributor for its expenditures in financing any activity primarily intended to result in the sale of each Fund’s Class N shares and for maintenance and personal service provided to existing shareholders of that class. The Plan authorizes payments to the Distributor up to 0.25% annually of each Fund’s, except Small Cap Value’s, average daily net assets attributable to the Class N shares. The portion of payments made under the plan by Class N shares of each Fund, except Small Cap Value, for shareholder servicing may not exceed an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net asset value of each Fund’s shares of that class owned by clients of such broker, dealer or financial intermediary.
For each of Class N and Class I shares of Small Cap Core and Small Cap Value, and for Class I shares of Small/Mid Cap Core, the Board has approved reimbursement payments to the Investment Manager for shareholder servicing expenses (“shareholder servicing fees”) incurred. Shareholder servicing fees include payments to financial intermediaries, such as broker-dealers (including fund supermarket platforms), banks, and trust companies who provide shareholder recordkeeping, account servicing and other services. The Class N and Class I shares may reimburse the Investment Manager for the actual amount incurred up to a maximum annual rate of each Class’s average daily net assets as shown in the table below.
The impact on the annualized expense ratios for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was as follows:
| Maximum Annual | Actual | |||||||
| Amount | Amount | |||||||
| Fund | Approved | Incurred | ||||||
| Small Cap Core |
||||||||
| Class N |
0.15% | 0.15% | ||||||

The Board provides supervision of the affairs of the Trust and other trusts within the AMG Funds Family. The Trustees of the Trust who are not affiliated with the Investment Manager receive an annual retainer and per meeting fees for regular, special and telephonic meetings, and they are reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incurred while carrying out their duties as Board members. The Chairman of the Board and the Audit Committee Chair receive additional annual retainers. Certain Trustees and Officers of the Funds are Officers and/or Directors of the Investment Manager, AMG and/or the Distributor.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) granted an exemptive order that permits certain eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family to lend and borrow money for certain temporary purposes directly to and from other eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family. Participation in this interfund lending program is voluntary for both the borrowing and lending funds, and an interfund loan is only made if it benefits each participating fund. The Administrator manages the program according to procedures approved by the Board, and the Board monitors the operation of the program. An interfund loan must comply with certain conditions set out in the exemptive order, which are designed to assure fairness and protect all participating funds. The interest earned and interest paid on interfund loans are included on the Statement of Operations as interest income and interest expense, respectively. At June 30, 2026, the Funds had no interfund loans outstanding. Small Cap Value and Small/Mid Cap Core did not utilize the interfund lending program during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
The following Fund utilized the interfund lending program during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as follows:
| Fund | Average Borrowed |
Number of Days |
Interest Paid |
Average Interest Rate |
||||||||||||
| Small Cap Core |
$1,101,035 | 1 | $138 | 4.560% | ||||||||||||
Small Cap Core did not lend during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term securities and U.S. Government Obligations) for the six months ended June 30, 2026, were as follows:
| Long Term Securities | ||||||||
| Fund | Purchases | Sales | ||||||
| Small Cap Core |
$95,479,770 | $152,050,771 | ||||||
| Small Cap Value |

| Small/Mid Cap Core |
90,008,566 | 137,791,100 | ||||||
The Funds had no purchases or sales of U.S. Government Obligations during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
4. PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED
The Funds participate in the Securities Lending Program providing for the lending of securities to qualified borrowers. Securities lending income includes earnings of such temporary cash investments, plus or minus any rebate to a borrower. These earnings (after any rebate) are then divided between BNYM, as a fee for its services under the Securities Lending Program, and the Funds, according to agreed-upon rates. Collateral on all securities loaned is accepted in cash,
28
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| ||
|
| ||
U.S. Treasury Obligations or U.S. Government Agency Obligations. Collateral is maintained at a minimum level of 102% (105% in the case of certain foreign securities) of the market value, plus interest, if applicable, of investments on loan. It is the Funds’ policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Funds if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. Under the terms of the Securities Lending Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by BNYM. Cash collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM, who is authorized to exclusively enter into joint repurchase agreements for that cash collateral. Securities collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM and cannot be sold or pledged. BNYM bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the cash collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested. Loans of securities are terminable by a Fund at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities as soon as practical, which is normally within three business days.
The value of securities loaned on positions held, cash collateral and securities collateral received at June 30, 2026, was as follows:
| Fund | Securities Loaned |
Cash Collateral Received |
Securities Collateral Received |
Total Collateral Received |

5. SEGMENT REPORTING
Each Fund operates through a single operating and reporting segment to achieve its investment objective as reflected in each Fund’s prospectus. The Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”) are the Funds’ president and chief financial officer. The CODM assesses the performance and makes operating decisions for each Fund primarily based on each Fund’s changes in net assets resulting from operations. In addition to other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes each Fund’s net assets, total return, and ratios of net and gross expenses to average net assets as key metrics in reviewing the performance of each Fund. As each Fund’s operations comprise a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “Total assets” and the significant segment expenses are listed on the Statement of Operations.
6. FUND RISKS
In the normal course of business, the Funds invest in securities or other instruments and may enter into certain transactions, and such activities subject the Funds to various risks. Below is a summary of some, but not all, of those risks. Each risk described below does not necessarily apply to each Fund. Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for a description of the principal risks associated with investing in a particular Fund. The value of securities or other instruments may also be affected by various factors, including, without limitation: (i) the general economy; (ii) the overall market; or (iii) price fluctuations.
Growth Stock Risk: The prices of equity securities of companies that are expected to experience relatively rapid earnings growth, or “growth stocks,” may be more sensitive to market movements because the prices tend to reflect future investor expectations rather than just current profits.
Liquidity Risk: The Funds may not be able to dispose of particular investments, such as illiquid securities, readily at favorable times or prices or the Funds may have to sell them at a loss.
Management Risk: Because each Fund is an actively managed investment portfolio, security selection or focus on securities in a particular style, market sector or group of companies may cause the Funds to incur losses or underperform relative to its benchmarks or other funds with a similar investment objective. There can be no guarantee that GW&K’s investment techniques and risk analysis will produce the desired result.
Market Risk: Market prices of investments held by the Funds may fall rapidly or unpredictably due to a variety of factors, including economic or market conditions, or other factors including terrorism, war, natural disasters and the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, including epidemics or pandemics, or in response to events that affect particular industries or companies. In addition, unexpected political, regulatory, trade and diplomatic events within the United States and abroad may affect investor and consumer confidence and may adversely impact financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree.
Real Estate Industry Risk: Investments in the Funds may be subject to many of the same risks as a direct investment in real estate. The stock prices of companies in the real estate industry, including REITs, are typically sensitive to changes in real estate values, property taxes, interest rates, cash flow of underlying real estate assets, occupancy rates, government regulations affecting zoning, land use, and rents, as well as the management skill and creditworthiness of the issuer. Investments in the real estate sector also may be adversely impacted by natural or environmental disasters. REITs also depend generally on their ability to generate cash flow to make distributions to shareholders or unitholders and are subject to the risk of failing to qualify for favorable tax treatment under the Code.
Sector Risk: Issuers and companies that are in similar industry sectors may be similarly affected by particular economic or market events; to the extent the Funds have substantial holdings within a particular sector, the risks associated with that sector increase.
Small- and Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk: The stocks of small- and mid-capitalization companies often have greater price volatility, lower trading volume, and less liquidity than the stocks of larger, more established companies.
Value Stock Risk: Value stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and may be undervalued by the market for a long period of time.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees and Officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and
warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure to the Funds under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against a Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds had no prior claims or losses and expect the risks of loss to be remote.
8. MASTER NETTING AGREEMENTS
The Funds may enter into master netting agreements with their counterparties for the Securities Lending Program and Repurchase Agreements, which provide the right, in the event of default (including bankruptcy or insolvency) for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to master netting agreements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For securities lending transactions, see Note 4.

| AMG GW&K Small Cap Core Fund, AMG GW&K Small Cap Value Fund, and AMG GW&K Small/Mid Cap Core Fund: Approval of Investment Management and Subadvisory Agreements on June 3, 2026
At a meeting held on May 27, 2026, the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of AMG Funds (the “Trust”) considered, and at a meeting held in-person on June 3, 2026, the Board, and separately a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), approved (i) the Investment Management Agreement, as amended pursuant to letter agreements at any time prior to the date of the meeting, with AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) for each of AMG GW&K Small Cap Core Fund, AMG GW&K Small Cap Value Fund, and AMG GW&K Small/Mid Cap Core Fund (each, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”), and separately each of Amendment No. 1 thereto dated July 1, 2015, and Amendment No. 2 thereto dated October 1, 2016 (collectively, the “Investment Management Agreement”); and (ii) the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, as amended at any time prior to the date of the meeting (collectively, the “Subadvisory Agreements”), with GW&K Investment Management, LLC, the Funds’ subadviser (the “Subadviser”). The Independent Trustees were separately represented by independent legal counsel in connection with their consideration of the approval of these agreements. In considering the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements, the Trustees reviewed a variety of materials relating to each Fund, the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, including the nature, extent and quality of services, comparative performance, fee and expense information for an appropriate peer group of similar mutual funds for each Fund (each, a “Peer Group”), performance information for the relevant benchmark index for each Fund (each, a “Fund Benchmark”), other relevant matters, including management fees, the profitability of the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, and the potential for economies of scale that may be shared with the Funds, and other information provided to them on a periodic basis throughout the year. Prior to voting, the Independent Trustees: (a) reviewed the foregoing information with their independent legal counsel; (b) received materials from their independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards applicable to their consideration of the Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements; and (c) met with their independent legal counsel in private sessions at which no representatives of management were present. |
NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings relating to the Investment Manager’s operations and personnel. Among other things, the Investment Manager provided financial information, information about its supervisory and professional staff and descriptions of its organizational and management structure. The Trustees also took into account information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Investment Manager in Board meetings relating to the performance of its duties with respect to the Funds and the Trustees’ knowledge of the Investment Manager’s management and the quality of the performance of the Investment Manager’s duties under the Investment Management Agreement and Administration Agreement. In the course of their deliberations regarding the Investment Manager, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the extent and quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the operation and management of the Funds; (b) the quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the performance by the Subadviser of its portfolio management duties; (c) the Investment Manager’s ability to supervise the Funds’ other service providers; and (d) the Investment Manager’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account that, in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser, the Investment Manager: performs periodic detailed analyses and reviews of the performance by the Subadviser of its obligations to each Fund, including without limitation, analysis and review of portfolio and other compliance matters and review of the Subadviser’s investment performance with respect to each Fund; prepares and presents periodic reports to the Board regarding the investment performance of the Subadviser and other information regarding the Subadviser, at such times and in such forms as the Board may reasonably request; reviews and considers any changes in the personnel of the Subadviser responsible for performing the Subadviser’s obligations and makes appropriate reports to the Board; reviews and considers any changes in the ownership or senior management of the Subadviser and makes appropriate reports to the Board; performs periodic in-person, telephonic or videoconference diligence meetings, including with respect to compliance matters, with representatives of the Subadviser; |
assists the Board and management of the Trust in developing and reviewing information with respect to the initial approval of each Subadvisory Agreement and annual consideration of each Subadvisory Agreement thereafter; prepares recommendations with respect to the continued retention of the Subadviser or the replacement of the Subadviser, including at the request of the Board; identifies potential successors to, or replacements of, the Subadviser or potential additional subadvisers, including performing appropriate due diligence, and developing and presenting to the Board a recommendation as to any such successor, replacement, or additional subadviser, including at the request of the Board; designates and compensates from its own resources such personnel as the Investment Manager may consider necessary or appropriate to the performance of its services; and performs such other review and reporting functions as the Board shall reasonably request consistent with the Investment Management Agreement and applicable law. The Trustees noted the affiliation of the Subadviser with the Investment Manager, noting any potential conflicts of interest. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the Investment Manager with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Investment Management Agreement and the Investment Manager’s undertaking to maintain contractual expense limitations for the Funds. The Trustees also considered the Investment Manager’s risk management processes.
The Trustees also reviewed information relating to the Subadviser’s operations and personnel and the investment philosophy, strategies and techniques (its “Investment Strategy”) used in managing each Fund. Among other things, the Trustees reviewed information on portfolio management and other professional staff, information regarding the Subadviser’s organizational and management structure and the Subadviser’s brokerage policies and practices. The Trustees considered specific information provided regarding the experience of the individuals at the Subadviser with portfolio management responsibility for each Fund, including the information set forth in each Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information. In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the services rendered by the Subadviser in the past; (b) the qualifications and experience of the Subadviser’s personnel; and (c) the Subadviser’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the |

|

| ||
|
| ||
| Subadviser with respect to its ability to provide the services required under each Subadvisory Agreement. The Trustees also considered the Subadviser’s risk management processes.
PERFORMANCE
The Board considered each Fund’s net performance during relevant time periods as compared to the Fund’s Peer Group and Fund Benchmark and noted that the Board reviews on a quarterly basis detailed information about both a Fund’s performance results and portfolio composition, as well as the Subadviser’s Investment Strategy. The Board was mindful of the Investment Manager’s expertise, resources, and attention to monitoring the Subadviser’s performance, investment style and risk-adjusted performance with respect to the Funds and its discussions with the management of the Funds’ subadviser during the period regarding the factors that contributed to the performance of the Funds.
With respect to AMG GW&K Small Cap Core Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class N shares (which share class has the earliest inception date of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was below the median performance of the Peer Group and below the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark and the Peer Group. The Trustees also took into account the fact that the Fund ranked in the top third relative to its Peer Group for the 2024 calendar year and in the top half relative to its Peer Group for the 2022 calendar year. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
With respect to AMG GW&K Small Cap Value Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class N shares (which share class has the earliest inception date and the largest |
amount of assets of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was below, below, above, and below, respectively, the median performance of the Peer Group and below the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s underperformance relative to the Peer Group and the Fund Benchmark and the fact that the Fund ranked in the top half relative to its Peer Group for the 5-year period. The Trustees also took into account the fact that the Fund’s subadviser and investment strategy changed effective December 4, 2020, and that the performance information prior to that date reflected that of the Fund’s prior subadviser and investment strategy. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
With respect to AMG GW&K Small/Mid Cap Core Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class I shares (which share class has the earliest inception date of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was above the median performance of the Peer Group and below the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Russell 2500 Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s outperformance relative to its Peer Group and underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark, and the fact that the Fund ranked in the top quintile relative to its Peer Group for the 5-year period and in the top decile relative to its Peer Group for the 2021 and 2022 calendar years. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that |
the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY FEES; FUND EXPENSES; PROFITABILITY; AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE
In considering the reasonableness of the advisory fee payable to the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings setting forth all revenues and other benefits, both direct and indirect (including any so-called “fallout benefits” such as reputational value derived from the Investment Manager serving as Investment Manager to a Fund), received by the Investment Manager and its affiliates attributable to managing each Fund and all the mutual funds in the AMG Funds Family of Funds; the cost of providing such services; the significant risks undertaken as Investment Manager and sponsor of the Funds, including investment, operational, enterprise, entrepreneurial, litigation, regulatory and compliance risks; and the resulting profitability to the Investment Manager and its affiliates from these relationships. The Trustees also considered the amount of the advisory fee retained by the Investment Manager after payment of the subadvisory fee with respect to each Fund. The Trustees also noted payments are made from the Subadviser to the Investment Manager, and other payments are made from the Investment Manager to the Subadviser. The Trustees also considered management’s discussion of the current asset levels of the Funds, and the impact on profitability of both the current asset levels and any future growth of assets of the Funds.
In considering the cost of services to be provided by the Investment Manager under the Investment Management Agreement and the profitability to the Investment Manager of its relationship with each Fund, the Trustees noted the undertaking by the Investment Manager to maintain contractual expense limitations for the Funds. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the advisory fee structure, and the services the Investment Manager provides in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Investment Manager is reasonable and that the Investment Manager is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the advisory fee at this time. |

|
ITEM 11. STATEMENT REGARDING BASIS FOR APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT
| ||
|
| ||
| Also, with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as each Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses.
In considering the reasonableness of the subadvisory fees payable by the Investment Manager to the Subadviser, the Trustees reviewed information regarding the cost to the Subadviser of providing subadvisory services to each Fund and the resulting profitability from these relationships. The Trustees noted that, because the Subadviser is an affiliate of the Investment Manager, a portion of the Subadviser’s revenues or profits might be shared directly or indirectly with the Investment Manager. The Trustees also noted that the subadvisory fees are paid by the Investment Manager out of its advisory fee. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the subadvisory fee structure, and the services the Subadviser provides in performing its functions under each Subadvisory Agreement. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Subadviser is reasonable and that the Subadviser is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the subadvisory fees at this time. Also, with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as a Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses.
With respect to AMG GW&K Small Cap Core Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class I shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were both rated in the Average rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact |
that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.90%. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
With respect to AMG GW&K Small Cap Value Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class I shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were both rated in the Average rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.90%. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
With respect to AMG GW&K Small/Mid Cap Core Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class I shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were |
both rated in the Below Average rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.82%. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
* * * *
After consideration of the foregoing, the Trustees also reached the following conclusions (in addition to the conclusions discussed above) regarding the Investment Management and Subadvisory Agreements: (a) the Investment Manager and the Subadviser have demonstrated that they possess the capability and resources to perform the duties required of them under the Investment Management Agreement and each Subadvisory Agreement and (b) the Investment Manager and Subadviser maintain appropriate compliance programs.
Based on all of the above-mentioned factors and their related conclusions, with no single factor or conclusion being determinative and with each Trustee not necessarily attributing the same weight to each factor, the Trustees concluded that approval of the Investment Management Agreement and each Subadvisory Agreement would be in the best interests of the applicable Fund and its shareholders. Accordingly, on June 3, 2026, the Trustees, and separately a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement for each Fund. |

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AMG Funds and AMG Funds III (“Trust III”) (the “Trusts”) are open-end management investment companies, organized as Massachusetts business trusts, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Currently, the Trusts consist of a number of different funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Included in this report are AMG Funds: AMG GW&K Municipal Bond Fund (“Municipal Bond”) and AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced Yield Fund (“Municipal Enhanced”), and Trust III: AMG GW&K ESG Bond Fund (“ESG Bond”), each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”.
Each Fund offers different classes of shares. All Funds offer Class N shares and Class I shares; and Municipal Enhanced offers Class Z shares. Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the respective Fund. Although all share classes generally have identical voting rights, each share class votes separately when required by law. Different share classes may have different net asset values per share to the extent the share classes pay different distribution amounts and/or the expenses of such share classes differ. Each share class has its own expense structure. Please refer to a current prospectus for additional information on each share class.
The Funds’ financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), including accounting and reporting guidance pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies. 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements:
a. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
Fixed income securities purchased with a remaining maturity exceeding 60 days are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an authorized pricing service or, if an evaluated price is not available, by reference to other securities which are considered comparable in credit rating, interest rate, due date and other features (generally referred to as “matrix pricing”) or other similar pricing methodologies. Investments in certain mortgage-backed and stripped mortgage-backed securities, convertible securities, derivatives and other debt securities not traded on an organized securities market are valued on the basis of valuations provided by dealers or by a pricing service which uses information with respect to transactions in such securities and various relationships between such securities and yield to maturity in determining value.
Fixed income securities purchased with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, provided that the amortized cost value is approximately the same as the fair value of the security valued without the use of amortized cost. Investments in other open-end registered investment companies are valued at their end of day net asset value per share.
The Funds’ portfolio investments are generally valued based on independent market quotations or prices or, if none, “evaluative” or other market based valuations provided by third party pricing services. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under
the 1940 Act, the Funds’ Boards of Trustees (the “Board”) designated AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) as the Funds’ Valuation Designee to perform the Funds’ fair value determinations. Such determinations are subject to Board oversight and certain reporting and other requirements intended to ensure that the Board receives the information it needs to oversee the Investment Manager’s fair value determinations.
Under certain circumstances, the value of certain Fund portfolio investments may be based on an evaluation of fair value, pursuant to procedures established by the Investment Manager and under the general supervision of the Board. The Funds may use the fair value of a portfolio investment to calculate its net asset value (“NAV”) in the event that the market quotation, price or market based valuation for the portfolio investment is not readily available or otherwise not determinable pursuant to the Funds’ valuation procedures, if the Investment Manager believes the quotation, price or market based valuation to be unreliable, or in certain other circumstances. When determining the fair value of an investment, the Investment Manager seeks to determine the price that the Funds might reasonably expect to receive from current sale of that portfolio investment in an arms-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon consideration of all available facts and information, including, but not limited to (i) attributes specific to the investment; (ii) fundamental and analytical data relating to the investment; and (iii) the value of other comparable securities or relevant financial instruments, including derivative securities, traded on other markets or among dealers.
The values assigned to fair value portfolio investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized in the future, since such amounts depend on future developments inherent in long-term investments. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and the differences could be material. The Board will be presented with quarterly reports, as of the most recent quarter end, summarizing all fair value activity, material fair value matters that occurred during the quarter, and all outstanding securities fair valued by the Funds. Additionally, the Board will be presented with an annual report that assesses the adequacy and effectiveness of the Investment Manager’s process for determining the fair value of the Funds’ investments.
U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. 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 Funds. Unobservable inputs reflect the Funds’ 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 – inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical investments (e.g., equity securities, open-end investment companies)
Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or
28
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| ||
|
| ||
similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs) (e.g., debt securities, government securities, foreign securities utilizing international fair value pricing, fair valued securities with observable inputs)
Level 3 – inputs are significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments) (e.g., fair valued securities with unobservable inputs)
Changes in inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may result in a transfer in or out of levels within the fair value hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may not necessarily be an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments.
b. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS
Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
c. INVESTMENT INCOME AND EXPENSES
Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is accrued as earned. Interest income on foreign securities is recorded gross of any withholding tax. Paydown gains (losses) on mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, if any, are recorded as components of interest income on the Statement of Operations. Other income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Expenses that cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are apportioned among the funds in the Trusts and other trusts or funds within the AMG Funds Family of Funds (collectively, the “AMG Funds Family”) based upon their relative average net assets or number of shareholders. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of each Fund, and certain fund level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of each Fund.
d. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Fund distributions resulting from net investment income, if any, will normally be declared and paid monthly by the Funds. Fund distributions resulting from realized net capital gains, if any, will normally be declared and paid at least annually in December. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax law, which may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains for financial statement purposes (U.S. GAAP). Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Permanent book and tax basis differences, if any, relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense and gain or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Permanent differences for ESG Bond are primarily due to callable bond premiums. There were no permanent differences for Municipal Bond and Municipal Enhanced. In addition, temporary differences for ESG Bond and Municipal Enhanced are due to wash sale loss deferrals. There were no temporary differences for Municipal Bond.
At June 30, 2026, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes approximates the aggregate cost for book purposes. The approximate cost of investments and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
| Fund | Cost | Appreciation | Depreciation | Net Appreciation/ (Depreciation) |
||||||||||||
| ESG Bond |
$336,891,793 | $2,889,123 | $(24,607,842 | ) | $(21,718,719 | ) | ||||||||||
| Municipal Bond |

| Municipal Enhanced |
165,867,982 | 2,183,378 | (8,063,007 | ) | (5,879,629 | ) | ||||||||||
e. FEDERAL TAXES
Each Fund currently qualifies as an investment company and intends to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and gains to its shareholders and to meet certain diversification and income requirements with respect to investment companies. The Investment Manager has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (generally, the three prior taxable years), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Additionally, the Investment Manager is not aware of any tax position for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefit/detriment will change materially in the next twelve months.
Furthermore, based on each Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and transactions for the foreign jurisdictions in which it
invests, each Fund will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign taxes.
f. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYOVERS AND DEFERRALS
As of December 31, 2025, the Funds had capital loss carryovers for federal income tax purposes as shown in the following chart. These amounts may be used to offset future realized capital gains indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term.

g. CAPITAL STOCK
Each of AMG Funds’ Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust and Trust III’s Declaration of Trust authorizes for each applicable Fund the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, without par value. Each Fund records sales and repurchases of its capital stock on the trade date.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026 (unaudited) and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the capital stock transactions by class for the Funds were as follows:

h. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Funds may enter into third-party and bilateral repurchase agreements for temporary cash management purposes and, with respect to ESG Bond, for reinvestment of cash collateral on securities lending transactions under the securities lending program offered by The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”) (the
“Securities Lending Program”) (collectively, “Repurchase Agreements”). The value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest, must equal or exceed the value of the Repurchase Agreements during the term of the agreement. For joint repurchase agreements, ESG Bond participates on a pro rata basis with other clients of BNYM in their share of the underlying collateral under such joint
30
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| ||
|
| ||
repurchase agreements and in their share of proceeds from any repurchase or other disposition of the underlying collateral. The underlying collateral for all Repurchase Agreements is held by the Funds’ custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited. Pursuant to the Securities Lending Program, ESG Bond is indemnified for such losses by BNYM on joint repurchase agreements.
At June 30, 2026, the market value of Repurchase Agreements outstanding for ESG Bond, Municipal Bond and Municipal Enhanced was $5,541,946, $39,999,000 and $3,764,000, respectively.
i. DELAYED DELIVERY TRANSACTIONS AND WHEN-ISSUED SECURITIES
The Funds may enter into securities transactions on a delayed delivery or when issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. During the time a delayed delivery sell is outstanding, the contract is marked to market daily and equivalent deliverable securities are held for the transaction. The value of the securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in each Fund’s Schedule of Portfolio Investments. With respect to purchase commitments, the Funds identify securities as segregated in their records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Delayed delivery or when-issued securities that have been purchased from and sold to different brokers are reflected as an investment in securities and a forward sale commitment in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund does not offset the receivable and payable for delayed delivery investments purchased and sold. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, Municipal Bond entered into securities transactions on a delayed delivery or when issued basis. At June 30, 2026, the market value of delayed delivery securities held in the Fund amounted to $75,135,012.
2. AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
For each of the Funds, the Trusts have entered into investment advisory agreements under which the Investment Manager, a subsidiary and the U.S. wealth platform of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“AMG”), serves as investment manager to the Funds and is responsible for the Funds’ overall administration and operations. The Investment Manager selects and recommends, subject to the approval of the Boards and, in certain circumstances, shareholders, the subadviser for the Funds and monitors the subadviser’s investment performance, security holdings and investment strategies. Each Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by GW&K Investment Management, LLC (“GW&K”), who serves as subadviser pursuant to a subadvisory agreement with the Investment Manager. AMG indirectly owns a majority interest in GW&K.
Investment management fees are paid directly by the Funds to the Investment Manager based on average daily net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Funds’ investment management fees were paid at the following annual rates of each Fund’s respective average daily net assets:
| ESG Bond |
0.23 | % | ||
| Municipal Bond |
0.21 | %1 | ||
| on first $25 million |
0.35 | % | ||
| on next $25 million |
0.30 | % | ||
| on next $50 million |
0.25 | % | ||
| on balance over $100 million |
0.20 | % | ||
| Municipal Enhanced |
0.45 | % | ||
1 The rate shown is the effective rate as of June 30, 2026.
The fee paid to GW&K for its services as subadviser is paid out of the fee the Investment Manager receives from each Fund and does not increase the expenses of each Fund.
The Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through at least May 1, 2027, to waive management fees and/or pay or reimburse fund expenses in order to limit total annual Fund operating expenses after fee waiver and expense reimbursements (exclusive of taxes, interest (including interest incurred in connection with bank and custody overdrafts, and in connection with securities sold short), shareholder servicing fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, brokerage commissions and other transaction costs, dividends payable with respect to securities sold short, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary expenses) of ESG Bond, Municipal Bond and Municipal Enhanced to the annual rate of 0.43%, 0.34% and 0.59%, respectively, of each Fund’s average daily net assets (this annual rate or such other annual rate that may be in effect from time to time, the “Expense Cap”), subject to later reimbursement by the Funds in certain circumstances.
In general, for a period of up to 36 months after the date any amounts are paid, waived or reimbursed by the Investment Manager, the Investment Manager may recover such amounts from a Fund, provided that such repayment would not cause the Fund’s total annual operating expenses after fee waiver and expense reimbursements (exclusive of the items noted in the parenthetical above) to exceed either (i) the Expense Cap in effect at the time such amounts were paid, waived or reimbursed, or (ii) the Expense Cap in effect at the time of such repayment by the Fund.
The contractual expense limitation may only be terminated in the event the Investment Manager or a successor ceases to be the investment manager of a Fund or a successor fund, by mutual agreement between the Investment Manager and the Board, or in the event of a Fund’s liquidation unless the Fund is reorganized or is a party to a merger in which the surviving entity is successor to the accounting and performance information of a Fund.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Investment Manager’s expense reimbursements, and repayments of prior reimbursements by the Funds to the Investment Manager, if any, are as follows:
| Expense | Repayment of | |||
| Reimbursements | Prior Reimbursements | |||

The Trusts, on behalf of the Funds, have entered into an amended and restated Administration Agreement under which the Investment Manager serves as the Funds’ administrator (the “Administrator”) and is responsible for certain aspects of managing the Funds’ operations, including administration and shareholder services to each Fund. Each Fund pays a fee to the Administrator at the rate of 0.15% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets for this service.
The Funds are distributed by AMG Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Manager. The Distributor serves as the distributor and underwriter for each Fund and is a registered broker-dealer and member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”). Shares of each Fund will be continuously offered and will be sold directly to prospective purchasers and through brokers, dealers or other financial intermediaries who have executed selling agreements with the Distributor. Generally, the Distributor bears all or a portion of the expenses of providing services pursuant to the distribution agreement, including the payment of the expenses relating to the distribution of prospectuses for sales purposes and any advertising or sales literature.
AMG Funds has adopted a distribution and service plan (the “Plan”) with respect to the Class N shares, in accordance with the requirements of Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act and the requirements of the applicable rules of FINRA regarding asset-based sales charges. Pursuant to the Plan, Municipal Bond and Municipal Enhanced may make payments to the Distributor for its expenditures in financing any activity primarily intended to result in the sale of each Fund’s Class N shares and for maintenance and personal service provided to existing shareholders of that class. The Plan authorizes payments to the Distributor up to 0.25% annually of Municipal Bond and Municipal Enhanced average daily net assets attributable to the Class N shares. The portion of payments made under the plan by Class N shares of Municipal Bond and Municipal Enhanced for shareholder servicing may not exceed an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net asset value of each Fund’s shares of that class owned by clients of such broker, dealer or financial intermediary.
For each of Class N and Class I shares of ESG Bond, Municipal Bond and Municipal Enhanced, the Board has approved reimbursement payments to the Investment Manager for shareholder servicing expenses (“shareholder servicing fees”) incurred. Shareholder servicing fees include payments to financial intermediaries, such as broker-dealers (including fund supermarket platforms), banks, and trust companies who provide shareholder recordkeeping, account servicing and other services. The Class N and Class I shares may reimburse the Investment Manager for the actual amount incurred up to a maximum annual rate of each Class’s average daily net assets as shown in the table below.
The impact on the annualized expense ratios for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was as follows:
| Fund | Maximum Annual Amount Approved |
Actual Amount Incurred |
||||||
| ESG Bond |
||||||||
| Class N |
0.25 | % | 0.25% | |||||
| Class I |

| Class I |

The Board provides supervision of the affairs of the Trusts and other trusts within the AMG Funds Family. The Trustees of the Trusts who are not affiliated with the Investment Manager receive an annual retainer and per meeting fees for regular, special and telephonic meetings, and they are reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incurred while carrying out their duties as Board members. The Chairman of the Board and the Audit Committee Chair receive additional annual retainers. Certain Trustees and Officers of the Funds are Officers and/or Directors of the Investment Manager, AMG and/or the Distributor.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) granted an exemptive order that permits certain eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family to lend and borrow money for certain temporary purposes directly to and from other eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family. Participation in this interfund lending program is voluntary for both the borrowing and lending funds, and an interfund loan is only made if it benefits each participating fund. The Administrator manages the program according to procedures approved by the Board, and the Board monitors the operation of the program. An interfund loan must comply with certain conditions set out in the exemptive order, which are designed to assure fairness and protect all participating funds. The interest earned and interest paid on interfund loans are included on the Statement of Operations as interest income and interest expense, respectively. At June 30, 2026, the Funds had no interfund loans outstanding.

4. PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED
ESG Bond participates in the Securities Lending Program providing for the lending of securities to qualified borrowers. Securities lending income includes earnings of such temporary cash investments, plus or minus any rebate to a borrower. These earnings (after any rebate) are then divided between BNYM, as a fee for its services under the Securities Lending Program, and the Fund, according to agreed-upon rates. Collateral on all securities loaned is accepted in cash, U.S. Treasury Obligations or U.S. Government Agency Obligations. Collateral is maintained at a minimum level of 102% (105% in the case of certain foreign securities) of the market value, plus interest, if applicable, of investments on loan. It is the Fund’s policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Fund if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. Under the terms of the Securities Lending Program, the Fund is indemnified for such losses by BNYM. Cash collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM, who is authorized to exclusively enter into joint repurchase agreements for that cash collateral. Securities collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM and cannot be sold or pledged. BNYM bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the cash collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities as soon as practical, which is normally within three business days.
The value of securities loaned on positions held, cash collateral and securities collateral received at June 30, 2026, was as follows:

5. SEGMENT REPORTING
Each Fund operates through a single operating and reporting segment to achieve its investment objective as reflected in each Fund’s prospectus. The Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”) are the Funds’ president and chief financial officer. The CODM assesses the performance and makes operating decisions for each Fund primarily based on each Fund’s changes in net assets resulting from operations. In addition to other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes each Fund’s net assets, total return, and ratios of net and gross expenses to average net assets as key metrics in reviewing the performance of each Fund. As each Fund’s operations comprise a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “Total assets” and the significant segment expenses are listed on the Statement of Operations.
6. FUND RISKS
In the normal course of business, the Funds invest in securities or other instruments and may enter into certain transactions, and such activities subject the Funds to various risks. Below is a summary of some, but not all, of those risks. Each risk described below does not necessarily apply to each Fund. Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for a description of the principal risks associated with investing in a particular Fund. The value of securities or other instruments may also be affected by various factors, including, without limitation: (i) the general economy; (ii) the overall market as well as local, regional or global political and/or social instability; or (iii) price fluctuations.
Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk: Investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities involve risk of severe credit downgrades, loss due to prepayments that occur earlier or later than expected, illiquidity and default.
Changing Distribution Level Risk: The Funds will normally receive income which may include interest, dividends and/or capital gains, depending upon its investments. The distribution amount paid by a Fund will vary and generally depends on the amount of income a Fund earns (less expenses) on its portfolio holdings, and capital gains or losses it recognizes. A decline in a Fund’s income or net capital gains arising from its investments may reduce its distribution level.
Credit and Counterparty Risk: The issuer of bonds or other debt securities or a counterparty to a derivatives contract (including over-the-counter counterparties as well as brokers and clearinghouses in respect of exchange-traded and/or cleared products) may be unable or unwilling, or may be perceived as unable or unwilling, to make timely interest, principal or settlement payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength, credit rating or the market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness may also affect the value of a Fund’s investment in that issuer.
Debt Securities Risk: The value of a debt security changes in response to various factors, including, for example, market-related factors, such as changes in interest rates or changes in the actual or perceived ability of an issuer to meet its obligations. Investments in debt securities are subject to, among other risks, credit risk, interest rate risk, extension risk, prepayment risk and liquidity risk.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

|
| ||
ESG Investing Risk: Because applying a Fund’s ESG investment criteria may result in the selection or exclusion of securities of certain issuers for reasons other than financial performance, a Fund’s investment returns may underperform funds that do not incorporate ESG factors into their investment process. The incorporation of ESG criteria into the investment process may affect a Fund’s investment exposure to certain companies, sectors, regions, countries or types of investments, which could negatively impact a Fund’s performance depending on whether such investments are in or out of favor. Applying ESG criteria to investment decisions is qualitative and subjective by nature, and there is no guarantee that the criteria utilized by GW&K or any judgment exercised by GW&K will improve the financial performance of a Fund or reflect the beliefs or values of any particular investor. ESG standards differ by region and industry, and a company’s ESG practices or GW&K’s assessment of a company’s ESG practices may change over time. GW&K’s evaluation of a company also may be dependent on the availability of timely, complete and accurate ESG data reported by issuers and/or third party data providers. Different methodologies may be used by the various issuers and third party sources that provide ESG data, and such ESG data often lacks standardization, consistency and transparency.
Extension Risk: During periods of rising interest rates, a debtor may pay back a bond or other fixed income security slower than expected or required, and the value of such security may fall.
High Yield Risk: Below investment grade debt securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as “junk bonds” or “high yield securities”) may be subject to greater levels of interest rate, credit, liquidity, and market risk than higher-rated securities. These securities are considered predominately speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to make principal and interest payments.
Inflation/Deflation Risk: Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be worth less in the future. Inflation rates may change frequently and drastically as a result of various factors and the Funds’ investments may not keep pace with inflation, which may result in losses to the Funds’ investors or adversely affect the real value of shareholders’ investments in the Funds. As inflation rates increase, fixed income securities markets may experience heightened levels of interest rate volatility and liquidity risk. Deflation risk is the risk that the prices throughout the economy decline over time – the opposite of inflation. Deflation may have an adverse effect on the creditworthiness of issuers and may make issuer default more likely, which may result in a decline in the value of the Funds’ portfolios.
Interest Rate Risk: Fixed coupon payments (cash flows) of bonds and debt securities may become less competitive with the market in periods of rising interest rates and cause bond prices to decline. During periods of increasing interest rates, the Funds may experience high levels of volatility and shareholder redemptions, and may have to sell securities at times when they would otherwise not do so, and at unfavorable prices, which could reduce the returns of the Funds.
Liquidity Risk: The Funds may not be able to dispose of particular investments, such as illiquid securities, readily at favorable times or prices or the Funds may have to sell them at a loss.
Management Risk: Because the Funds are actively managed investment portfolios, security selection or focus on securities in a particular style, market sector or group of companies may cause the Funds to incur losses or underperform relative to its benchmarks or other funds with a similar investment objective. There can be no guarantee that GW&K’s investment techniques and risk analysis will produce the desired result.
Market Risk: Market prices of investments held by the Funds may fall rapidly or unpredictably due to a variety of factors, including economic or market conditions, or other factors including terrorism, war, natural disasters and the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, including epidemics or pandemics, or in response to events that affect particular industries or companies. In addition, unexpected political, regulatory, trade and diplomatic events within the United States and abroad may affect investor and consumer confidence and may adversely impact financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree.
Municipal Market Risk: Factors unique to the municipal bond market may negatively affect the value of the Funds’ investment in municipal bonds. These factors include political or legislative changes, and uncertainties related to the tax status of the securities and the rights of investors in the securities. The Funds may invest in a group of municipal obligations that are related in such a way that an economic, business, or political development affecting one would also affect the others.
Prepayment Risk: A debtor may exercise its right to pay back a bond or other debt security earlier than expected or required during periods of decreasing interest rates.
Reinvestment Risk: The Funds may have difficulty reinvesting payments from debtors and may receive lower rates than from their original investments.
Sector Risk: Issuers and companies that are in similar industry sectors may be similarly affected by particular economic or market events; to the extent certain Funds have substantial holdings within a particular sector, the risks associated with that sector increase. A portion of certain Funds’ assets may be invested in fixed income securities that would tend to respond similarly to particular economic or political developments or the interest on which is based on revenues or otherwise related to similar types of projects. An example would be securities of issuers whose revenues are paid from similar types of projects, such as health care (including hospitals), utilities, or transportation.
U.S. Government Securities Risk: Obligations issued by some U.S. Government agencies, authorities, instrumentalities, or sponsored enterprises such as Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, while obligations issued by others, such as Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), and Federal Home Loan Banks (“FHLBs”), are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government and are backed solely by the entity’s own resources or by the ability of the entity to borrow from the U.S. Treasury. If one of these agencies defaults on a loan, there is no guarantee that the U.S. Government will provide financial support.
7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Under the Trusts’ organizational documents, their Trustees and Officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trusts. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure to the Funds under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against a Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds had no prior claims or losses and expect the risks of loss to be remote.

8. MASTER NETTING AGREEMENTS
The Funds may enter into master netting agreements with their counterparties for the Securities Lending Program and Repurchase Agreements, which provide the right, in the event of default (including bankruptcy or insolvency) for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to master netting agreements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For securities lending transactions, see Note 4.

| AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced Yield Fund, AMG GW&K Municipal Bond Fund, and AMG GW&K ESG Bond Fund: Approval of Investment Management and Subadvisory Agreements on June 3, 2026
At a meeting held on May 27, 2026, the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of each of AMG Funds and AMG Funds III (each, a “Trust” and collectively, the “Trusts”) considered, and at a meeting held in-person on June 3, 2026, the Board, and separately a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trusts (the “Independent Trustees”), approved (i) the Investment Management Agreement, as amended pursuant to letter agreements at any time prior to the date of the meeting, with AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) and AMG Funds for each of AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced Yield Fund and AMG GW&K Municipal Bond Fund, and separately each of Amendment No. 1 thereto dated July 1, 2015, and Amendment No. 2 thereto dated October 1, 2016; and the Fund Management Agreement, as amended pursuant to letter agreements at any time prior to the date of the meeting, with the Investment Manager and AMG Funds III for AMG GW&K ESG Bond Fund, and separately each of Amendment No. 1 thereto dated July 1, 2015, and Amendment No. 2 thereto dated October 1, 2016 (collectively, the “Investment Management Agreements”); and (ii) the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each of AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced Yield Fund, AMG GW&K Municipal Bond Fund, and AMG GW&K ESG Bond Fund (each, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”), as amended at any time prior to the date of the meeting (collectively, the “Subadvisory Agreements”), with GW&K Investment Management, LLC, the Funds’ subadviser (the “Subadviser”). The Independent Trustees were separately represented by independent legal counsel in connection with their consideration of the approval of these agreements. In considering the Investment Management Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements, the Trustees reviewed a variety of materials relating to each Fund, the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, including the nature, extent and quality of services, comparative performance, fee and expense information for an appropriate peer group of similar mutual funds for each Fund (each, a “Peer Group”), performance information for the relevant benchmark index for each Fund (each, a “Fund Benchmark”), other relevant matters, including management fees, the profitability of the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, and the potential for economies of scale that may be shared with the Funds, and other |
information provided to them on a periodic basis throughout the year. Prior to voting, the Independent Trustees: (a) reviewed the foregoing information with their independent legal counsel; (b) received materials from their independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards applicable to their consideration of the Investment Management Agreements and Subadvisory Agreements; and (c) met with their independent legal counsel in private sessions at which no representatives of management were present.
NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings relating to the Investment Manager’s operations and personnel. Among other things, the Investment Manager provided financial information, information about its supervisory and professional staff and descriptions of its organizational and management structure. The Trustees also took into account information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Investment Manager in Board meetings relating to the performance of its duties with respect to the Funds and the Trustees’ knowledge of the Investment Manager’s management and the quality of the performance of the Investment Manager’s duties under the Investment Management Agreements and Administration Agreement. In the course of their deliberations regarding the Investment Manager, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the extent and quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the operation and management of the Funds; (b) the quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the performance by the Subadviser of its portfolio management duties; (c) the Investment Manager’s ability to supervise the Funds’ other service providers; and (d) the Investment Manager’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account that, in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreements and supervising the Subadviser, the Investment Manager: performs periodic detailed analyses and reviews of the performance by the Subadviser of its obligations to each Fund, including without limitation, analysis and review of portfolio and other compliance matters and review of the Subadviser’s investment performance with respect to each Fund; prepares and presents periodic reports to the Board regarding the investment performance of the Subadviser and other information regarding the Subadviser, at such times and in such forms as the |
Board may reasonably request; reviews and considers any changes in the personnel of the Subadviser responsible for performing the Subadviser’s obligations and makes appropriate reports to the Board; reviews and considers any changes in the ownership or senior management of the Subadviser and makes appropriate reports to the Board; performs periodic in-person, telephonic or videoconference diligence meetings, including with respect to compliance matters, with representatives of the Subadviser; assists the Board and management of the Trusts in developing and reviewing information with respect to the initial approval of each Subadvisory Agreement and annual consideration of each Subadvisory Agreement thereafter; prepares recommendations with respect to the continued retention of the Subadviser or the replacement of the Subadviser, including at the request of the Board; identifies potential successors to, or replacements of, the Subadviser or potential additional subadvisers, including performing appropriate due diligence, and developing and presenting to the Board a recommendation as to any such successor, replacement, or additional subadviser, including at the request of the Board; designates and compensates from its own resources such personnel as the Investment Manager may consider necessary or appropriate to the performance of its services; and performs such other review and reporting functions as the Board shall reasonably request consistent with the Investment Management Agreements and applicable law. The Trustees noted the affiliation of the Subadviser with the Investment Manager, noting any potential conflicts of interest. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the Investment Manager with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Investment Management Agreements and the Investment Manager’s undertaking to maintain contractual expense limitations for the Funds. The Trustees also considered the Investment Manager’s risk management processes.
The Trustees also reviewed information relating to the Subadviser’s operations and personnel and the investment philosophy, strategies and techniques (its “Investment Strategy”) used in managing each Fund. Among other things, the Trustees reviewed information on portfolio management and other professional staff, information regarding the Subadviser’s organizational and management structure and the Subadviser’s brokerage policies and practices. The Trustees considered specific information provided regarding the experience of the individuals at the Subadviser with portfolio |

| management responsibility for each Fund, including the information set forth in each Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information. In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the services rendered by the Subadviser in the past; (b) the qualifications and experience of the Subadviser’s personnel; and (c) the Subadviser’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the Subadviser with respect to its ability to provide the services required under each Subadvisory Agreement. The Trustees also considered the Subadviser’s risk management processes.
PERFORMANCE
The Board considered each Fund’s net performance during relevant time periods as compared to the Fund’s Peer Group and Fund Benchmark and noted that the Board reviews on a quarterly basis detailed information about both a Fund’s performance results and portfolio composition, as well as the Subadviser’s Investment Strategy. The Board was mindful of the Investment Manager’s expertise, resources, and attention to monitoring the Subadviser’s performance, investment style and risk-adjusted performance with respect to the Funds and its discussions with the management of the Funds’ subadviser during the period regarding the factors that contributed to the performance of the Funds. With respect to AMG GW&K Municipal Bond Fund, the Board considered information relating to the gross performance of such Fund as compared to the Subadviser’s relevant performance composite that utilizes a similar investment strategy and approach.
With respect to AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced Yield Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class I shares (which share class has the earliest inception date and the largest amount of assets of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was below the median performance of the Peer Group and below the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Municipal Bond BAA Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark and the Peer Group. The Trustees also took into account the fact that Class I shares of the Fund ranked in the top percentile relative to the Peer Group for the 2023 calendar year. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their |
limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
With respect to AMG GW&K Municipal Bond Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class I shares (which share class has the largest amount of assets of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was above, below, below, and below, respectively, the median performance of the Peer Group and above, above, below, and below, respectively, the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Bloomberg 10-Year Municipal Bond Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s more recent outperformance. The Trustees also took into account the fact that Class I shares of the Fund ranked in the top decile relative to its Peer Group for the 1-year period and the 2025 calendar year and in the top half of its Peer Group for the 2023 and 2022 calendar years. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
With respect to AMG GW&K ESG Bond Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class N shares (which share class has the earliest inception date and the largest amount of assets of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was below, below, below, and above, respectively, the median performance of the Peer Group and below, above, above, and above, respectively, the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s longer-term outperformance and more recent |
underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark and the Peer Group. The Trustees also took into account the fact that Class N shares of the Fund ranked in the top half of its Peer Group for the 10-year period and the 2023 and 2022 calendar years. The Trustees also took into account the fact that the Fund’s subadviser, investment strategy, and Fund Benchmark changed effective March 19, 2021, and that the performance information prior to that date reflected that of the Fund’s prior subadviser and investment strategy. The Trustees considered management’s discussion that the Fund’s performance has been in line with management’s expectations since the current Subadviser assumed subadvisory responsibilities. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY FEES; FUND EXPENSES; PROFITABILITY; AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE
In considering the reasonableness of the advisory fee payable to the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings setting forth all revenues and other benefits, both direct and indirect (including any so-called “fallout benefits” such as reputational value derived from the Investment Manager serving as Investment Manager to a Fund), received by the Investment Manager and its affiliates attributable to managing each Fund and all the mutual funds in the AMG Funds Family of Funds; the cost of providing such services; the significant risks undertaken as Investment Manager and sponsor of the Funds, including investment, operational, enterprise, entrepreneurial, litigation, regulatory and compliance risks; and the resulting profitability to the Investment Manager and its affiliates from these relationships. The Trustees also considered the amount of the advisory fee retained by the Investment Manager after payment of the subadvisory fee with respect to each Fund. The Trustees also noted payments are made from the Subadviser to the Investment Manager, and other payments are made from the Investment Manager to the Subadviser. The Trustees also considered |

ITEM 11. STATEMENT REGARDING BASIS FOR APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT
| ||
|
| ||
| management’s discussion of the current asset levels of the Funds, and the impact on profitability of both the current asset levels and any future growth of assets of the Funds.
In considering the cost of services to be provided by the Investment Manager under each Investment Management Agreement and the profitability to the Investment Manager of its relationship with each Fund, the Trustees noted the undertaking by the Investment Manager to maintain contractual expense limitations for the Funds. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the advisory fee structure, and the services the Investment Manager provides in performing its functions under each Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Investment Manager is reasonable and that the Investment Manager is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the advisory fee at this time. Also with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as each Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses.
In considering the reasonableness of the subadvisory fees payable by the Investment Manager to the Subadviser, the Trustees reviewed information regarding the cost to the Subadviser of providing subadvisory services to each Fund and the resulting profitability from these relationships. The Trustees noted that, because the Subadviser is an affiliate of the Investment Manager, a portion of the Subadviser’s revenues or profits might be shared directly or indirectly with the Investment Manager. The Trustees also noted that the subadvisory fees are paid by the Investment Manager out of its advisory fee. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the subadvisory fee structure, and the services the Subadviser provides in performing its functions under each Subadvisory Agreement. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Subadviser is reasonable and that the Subadviser is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the subadvisory fees at this time. Also with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as a Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses. |
With respect to AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced Yield Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class I shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were rated in the High and the Above Average rating level, respectively, of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating levels corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.59%. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses and competitiveness with comparably sized funds and select competitors. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
With respect to AMG GW&K Municipal Bond Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class I shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were rated in the Below Average and the Low rating level, respectively, of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating levels corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.34%. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.

* * * *
After consideration of the foregoing, the Trustees also reached the following conclusions (in addition to the conclusions discussed above) regarding the Investment Management and Subadvisory Agreements: (a) the Investment Manager and the Subadviser have demonstrated that they possess the capability and resources to perform the duties required of them under each Investment Management Agreement and each Subadvisory Agreement and (b) the Investment Manager and Subadviser maintain appropriate compliance programs.
Based on all of the above-mentioned factors and their related conclusions, with no single factor or conclusion being determinative and with each Trustee not necessarily attributing the same weight to each factor, the Trustees concluded that approval of each Investment Management Agreement and each Subadvisory Agreement would be in the best interests of the applicable Fund and its shareholders. Accordingly, on June 3, 2026, the Trustees, and separately a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement for each Fund. |

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AMG Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company, organized as a Massachusetts business trust, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Currently, the Trust consists of a number of different funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Included in this report is AMG Renaissance Large Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund”).
The Fund offers Class N, Class I, and Class Z shares. Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the Fund. Although all share classes generally have identical voting rights, each share class votes separately when required by law. Different share classes may have different net asset values per share to the extent the share classes pay different distribution amounts and/or the expenses of such share classes differ. Each share class has its own expense structure. Please refer to a current prospectus for additional information on each share class.
The Fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), including accounting and reporting guidance pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies. 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements:
a. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
Equity securities traded on a national securities exchange or reported on the NASDAQ national market system (“NMS”) are valued at the last quoted sales price on the primary exchange or, if applicable, the NASDAQ official closing price or the official closing price of the relevant exchange or, lacking any sales, at the last quoted bid price. Equity securities held by the Fund that are traded in the over-the-counter market (other than NMS securities) are valued at the bid price. Foreign equity securities (securities principally traded in markets other than U.S. markets) held by the Fund are valued at the official closing price on the primary exchange or, for markets that either do not offer an official closing price or where the official closing price may not be representative of the overall market, the last quoted sale price.
Fixed income securities purchased with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, provided that the amortized cost value is approximately the same as the fair value of the security valued without the use of amortized cost. Investments in other open-end registered investment companies are valued at their end of day net asset value per share.
The Fund’s portfolio investments are generally valued based on independent market quotations or prices or, if none, “evaluative” or other market based valuations provided by third party pricing services. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) designated AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) as the Fund’s Valuation Designee to perform the Fund’s fair value determinations. Such determinations are subject to Board oversight and certain reporting and other requirements intended to ensure that
the Board receives the information it needs to oversee the Investment Manager’s fair value determinations.
Under certain circumstances, the value of certain Fund portfolio investments may be based on an evaluation of fair value, pursuant to procedures established by the Investment Manager and under the general supervision of the Board. The Fund may use the fair value of a portfolio investment to calculate its net asset value (“NAV”) in the event that the market quotation, price or market based valuation for the portfolio investment is not readily available or otherwise not determinable pursuant to the Fund’s valuation procedures, if the Investment Manager believes the quotation, price or market based valuation to be unreliable, or in certain other circumstances. When determining the fair value of an investment, the Investment Manager seeks to determine the price that the Fund might reasonably expect to receive from current sale of that portfolio investment in an arms-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon consideration of all available facts and information, including, but not limited to (i) attributes specific to the investment; (ii) fundamental and analytical data relating to the investment; and (iii) the value of other comparable securities or relevant financial instruments, including derivative securities, traded on other markets or among dealers.
The values assigned to fair value portfolio investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized in the future, since such amounts depend on future developments inherent in long-term investments. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and the differences could be material. The Board will be presented with quarterly reports, as of the most recent quarter end, summarizing all fair value activity, material fair value matters that occurred during the quarter, and all outstanding securities fair valued by the Fund. Additionally, the Board will be presented with an annual report that assesses the adequacy and effectiveness of the Investment Manager’s process for determining the fair value of the Fund’s investments.
With respect to foreign equity securities, securities held in the Fund that can be fair valued by the applicable fair value pricing service are fair valued on each business day provided that each individual price exceeds a pre-established confidence level.
U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. 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 – inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical investments (e.g., equity securities, open-end investment companies)
11
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| ||
|
| ||
Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs) (e.g., debt securities, government securities, foreign securities utilizing international fair value pricing, fair valued securities with observable inputs)
Level 3 – inputs are significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments) (e.g., fair valued securities with unobservable inputs)
Changes in inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may result in a transfer in or out of levels within the fair value hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may not necessarily be an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments.
b. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS
Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
c. INVESTMENT INCOME AND EXPENSES
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is accrued as earned. Dividend and interest income on foreign securities is recorded gross of any withholding tax. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are reported at the fair market value of the securities received. Other income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Expenses that cannot be directly attributed to the Fund are apportioned among the funds in the Trust and other trusts or funds within the AMG Funds Family of Funds (collectively, the “AMG Funds Family”) based upon their relative average net assets or number of shareholders. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund.
The Fund had certain portfolio trades directed to various brokers under a brokerage recapture program. Credits received from the brokerage recapture program are earned and paid on a monthly basis, and are recorded as expense offsets, which serve to reduce the Fund’s overall expense ratio. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the impact on the expenses and expense ratios was $4,770 and less than 0.01%, respectively.
d. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Fund distributions resulting from either net investment income or realized net capital gains, if any, will normally be declared and paid at least annually in December. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax law, which may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains for financial statement purposes (U.S. GAAP). Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Permanent book and tax basis differences, if any, relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense and gain or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Permanent differences for the Fund are primarily due to equalization utilized. Temporary differences for the Fund are due to wash sale loss deferrals.
At June 30, 2026, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes approximates the aggregate cost for book purposes. The approximate cost of investments and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
| Cost | Appreciation | Depreciation | Net Appreciation | |||||||||
| $88,165,644 | $51,618,363 | $(6,105,071 | ) | $45,513,292 | ||||||||
e. FEDERAL TAXES
The Fund currently qualifies as an investment company and intends to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and gains to its shareholders and to meet certain diversification and income requirements with respect to investment companies. The Investment Manager has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (generally, the three prior taxable years), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. Additionally, the Investment Manager is not aware of any tax position for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefit/detriment will change materially in the next twelve months.
Furthermore, based on the Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and transactions for the foreign jurisdictions in which it invests, the Fund will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign taxes.
f. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYOVERS AND DEFERRALS
As of December 31, 2025, the Fund had no capital loss carryovers for federal income tax purposes. Should the Fund incur net capital losses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026, such amounts may be used to offset future realized capital gains indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term.
g. CAPITAL STOCK
The Trust’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust authorizes for the Fund the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, without par value. The Fund records sales and repurchases of its capital stock on the trade date.

h. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Fund may enter into third-party and bilateral repurchase agreements for temporary cash management purposes and for reinvestment of cash collateral on securities lending transactions under the securities lending program offered by The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”) (the “Securities Lending Program”) (collectively, “Repurchase Agreements”). The value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest, must equal or exceed the value of the Repurchase Agreements during the term of the agreement. For joint repurchase agreements, the Fund participates on a pro rata basis with other clients of BNYM in its share of the underlying collateral under such joint repurchase agreements and in its share of proceeds from any repurchase or other disposition of the underlying collateral. The underlying collateral for all Repurchase Agreements is held by the Fund’s custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited. Pursuant to the Securities Lending Program, the Fund is indemnified for such losses by BNYM on joint repurchase agreements.
At June 30, 2026, the Fund had no Repurchase Agreements outstanding.
2. AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Trust has entered into an investment advisory agreement under which the Investment Manager, a subsidiary and the U.S. wealth platform of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“AMG”), serves as investment manager to the Fund and is responsible for the Fund’s overall administration and operations. The Investment Manager selects and recommends, subject to the approval of the Board and, in certain circumstances, shareholders, the subadviser for the Fund and monitors the
subadviser’s investment performance, security holdings and investment strategies. The Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by The Renaissance Group LLC (“Renaissance”) who serves as subadviser pursuant to a subadvisory agreement with the Investment Manager. AMG indirectly owns a majority interest in Renaissance.
Investment management fees are paid directly by the Fund to the Investment Manager based on average daily net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Fund paid an investment management fee at the following annual rates of the Fund’s average daily net assets:
| Effective Rate |
0.49%1 | |
| on the first $50 million |
0.55% | |
| on the next $25 million |
0.50% | |
| on the next $25 million |
0.45% | |
| on balance over $100 million |
0.40% | |
1 The rate shown is the effective rate as of June 30, 2026.
The fee paid to Renaissance for its services as subadviser is paid out of the fee the Investment Manager receives from the Fund and does not increase the expenses of the Fund.
The Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through at least May 1, 2027, to waive management fees and/or pay or reimburse fund expenses in order to limit total annual Fund operating expenses after fee waiver and expense reimbursements (exclusive of taxes, interest (including interest incurred in connection with bank and custody overdrafts, and in connection with securities sold short), shareholder servicing fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees,

brokerage commissions and other transaction costs, dividends payable with respect to securities sold short, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary expenses) to the annual rate of 0.66% of the Fund’s average daily net assets (this annual rate or such other annual rate that may be in effect from time to time, the “Expense Cap”), subject to later reimbursement by the Fund in certain circumstances.
In general, for a period of up to 36 months after the date any amounts are paid, waived or reimbursed by the Investment Manager, the Investment Manager may recover such amounts from the Fund, provided that such repayment would not cause the Fund’s total annual operating expenses after fee waiver and expense reimbursements (exclusive of the items noted in the parenthetical above) to exceed either (i) the Expense Cap in effect at the time such amounts were paid, waived or reimbursed, or (ii) the Expense Cap in effect at the time of such repayment by the Fund.
The contractual expense limitation may only be terminated in the event the Investment Manager or a successor ceases to be the investment manager of the Fund or a successor fund, by mutual agreement between the Investment Manager and the Board, or in the event of the Fund’s liquidation unless the Fund is reorganized or is a party to a merger in which the surviving entity is successor to the accounting and performance information of the Fund.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Investment Manager reimbursed the Fund $77,119, and did not recoup any previously reimbursed expenses. At June 30, 2026, the Fund’s expiration of reimbursements subject to recoupment was as follows:
| Expiration Period |
||||
| Less than 1 year |
$ | 148,478 | ||
| 1-2 years |
151,885 | |||
| 2-3 years |

|
|
|
|||
| Total |
$ | 449,633 | ||

|

The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, has entered into an amended and restated Administration Agreement under which the Investment Manager serves as the Fund’s administrator (the “Administrator”) and is responsible for certain aspects of managing the Fund’s operations, including administration and shareholder services to the Fund. The Fund pays a fee to the Administrator at the rate of 0.15% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets for this service.
The Fund is distributed by AMG Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Manager. The Distributor serves as the distributor and underwriter for the Fund and is a registered broker-dealer and member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”). Shares of the Fund will be continuously offered and will be sold directly to prospective purchasers and through brokers, dealers or other financial intermediaries who have executed selling agreements with the Distributor. Generally, the Distributor bears all or a portion of the expenses of providing services pursuant to the distribution agreement, including the payment of the expenses relating to the distribution of prospectuses for sales purposes and any advertising or sales literature.
The Trust has adopted a distribution and service plan (the “Plan”) with respect to the Class N shares, in accordance with the requirements of Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act and the requirements of the applicable rules of FINRA regarding
asset-based sales charges. Pursuant to the Plan, the Fund may make payments to the Distributor for its expenditures in financing any activity primarily intended to result in the sale of the Fund’s Class N shares and for maintenance and personal service provided to existing shareholders of that class. The Plan authorizes payments to the Distributor up to 0.25% annually of the Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to the Class N shares.
For each of the Class N and Class I shares, the Board has approved reimbursement payments to the Investment Manager for shareholder servicing expenses (“shareholder servicing fees”) incurred. Shareholder servicing fees include payments to financial intermediaries, such as broker-dealers (including fund supermarket platforms), banks, and trust companies who provide shareholder recordkeeping, account servicing and other services. The Class N and Class I shares may reimburse the Investment Manager for the actual amount incurred up to a maximum annual rate of each Class’s average daily net assets as shown in the table below. The Investment Manager has agreed to waive a portion of shareholder servicing fees paid by Class I as necessary to ensure the fees are limited to 0.07% through December 31, 2026.
The impact on the annualized expense ratios for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was as follows:
| Maximum Annual | Actual | |||||
| Amount | Amount | |||||
| Approved | Incurred | |||||
| Class N |
0.15% | 0.09% | ||||
| Class I |
0.15% | 0.07% | ||||
The Board provides supervision of the affairs of the Trust and other trusts within the AMG Funds Family. The Trustees of the Trust who are not affiliated with the Investment Manager receive an annual retainer and per meeting fees for regular, special and telephonic meetings, and they are reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incurred while carrying out their duties as Board members. The Chairman of the Board and the Audit Committee Chair receive additional annual retainers. Certain Trustees and Officers of the Fund are Officers and/or Directors of the Investment Manager, AMG and/or the Distributor.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) granted an exemptive order that permits certain eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family to lend and borrow money for certain temporary purposes directly to and from other eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family. Participation in this interfund lending program is voluntary for both the borrowing and lending funds, and an interfund loan is only made if it benefits each participating fund. The Administrator manages the program according to procedures approved by the Board, and the Board monitors the operation of the program. An interfund loan must comply with certain conditions set out in the exemptive order, which are designed to assure fairness and protect all participating funds. The interest earned and interest paid on interfund loans are included on the Statement of Operations as interest income and interest expense, respectively. At June 30, 2026, the Fund had no interfund loans outstanding. The Fund did not borrow or lend during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term securities and U.S. Government Obligations) for the six months ended June 30, 2026, were $32,156,197 and $39,588,662, respectively.

The Fund had no purchases or sales of U.S. Government Obligations during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
4. PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED
The Fund participates in the Securities Lending Program providing for the lending of securities to qualified borrowers. Securities lending income includes earnings of such temporary cash investments, plus or minus any rebate to a borrower. These earnings (after any rebate) are then divided between BNYM, as a fee for its services under the Securities Lending Program, and the Fund, according to agreed-upon rates. Collateral on all securities loaned is accepted in cash, U.S. Treasury Obligations or U.S. Government Agency Obligations. Collateral is maintained at a minimum level of 102% (105% in the case of certain foreign securities) of the market value, plus interest, if applicable, of investments on loan. It is the Fund’s policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Fund if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. Under the terms of the Securities Lending Program, the Fund is indemnified for such losses by BNYM. Cash collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM, who is authorized to exclusively enter into joint repurchase agreements for that cash collateral. Securities collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM and cannot be sold or pledged. BNYM bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the cash collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities as soon as practical, which is normally within three business days.
The value of securities loaned on positions held, cash collateral and securities collateral received at June 30, 2026, was as follows:
| Securities Loaned |
Cash Collateral Received |

Total Collateral Received | |||||
| $262,447 |

The following table summarizes the securities received as collateral for securities lending at June 30, 2026:

Maturity Date Range | ||||
| U.S. Treasury Obligations |
2.500%-4.500% | 05/15/46-11/15/54 | ||||
5. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Fund operates through a single operating and reporting segment to achieve its investment objective as reflected in the Fund’s prospectus. The Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”) are the Fund’s president and chief financial officer. The CODM assesses the performance and makes operating decisions for the Fund primarily based on the Fund’s changes in net assets resulting from operations. In addition to other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes the Fund’s net assets, total return, and ratios of net and gross expenses to average net assets as key metrics in reviewing the performance of the Fund. As the Fund’s operations comprise a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying
Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “Total assets” and the significant segment expenses are listed on the Statement of Operations.
6. FUND RISKS
In the normal course of business, the Fund invests in securities or other instruments and may enter into certain transactions, and such activities subject the Fund to various risks. The value of securities or other instruments may also be affected by various factors, including, without limitation: (i) the general economy; (ii) the overall market; or (iii) price fluctuations. Please refer to the Fund’s current prospectus for additional information about the Fund’s principal risks.
Market Risk: Market prices of investments held by the Fund may fall rapidly or unpredictably due to a variety of factors, including economic or market conditions, or other factors including terrorism, war, natural disasters and the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, including epidemics or pandemics, or in response to events that affect particular industries or companies. In addition, unexpected political, regulatory, trade and diplomatic events within the United States and abroad may affect investor and consumer confidence and may adversely impact financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree.
Large-Capitalization Stock Risk: The stocks of large-capitalization companies are generally more mature and may not be able to reach the same levels of growth as the stocks of small- or mid-capitalization companies.
Growth Stock Risk: The prices of equity securities of companies that are expected to experience relatively rapid earnings growth, or “growth stocks,” may be more sensitive to market movements because the prices tend to reflect future investor expectations rather than just current profits.
Management Risk: Because the Fund is an actively managed investment portfolio, security selection or focus on securities in a particular style, market sector or group of companies may cause the Fund to incur losses or underperform relative to its benchmarks or other funds with a similar investment objective. There can be no guarantee that Renaissance’s investment techniques and risk analysis will produce the desired result.
Sector Risk: Issuers and companies that are in similar industry sectors may be similarly affected by particular economic or market events; to the extent the Fund has substantial holdings within a particular sector, the risks associated with that sector increase.
Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk: The stocks of mid-capitalization companies often have greater price volatility, lower trading volume, and less liquidity than the stocks of larger, more established companies.
Model and Data Risk: When a quantitative model (“Model”) or information or data (“Data”) used in managing the Fund contains an error, or is incorrect or incomplete, any investment decision made in reliance on the Model or Data may not produce the desired results and the Fund may realize losses. In addition, any hedging based on a faulty Model or Data may prove to be unsuccessful. Furthermore, the success of a Model that is predictive in nature is dependent largely on the accuracy and reliability of the supplied historical data. All Models are susceptible to input errors or errors in design, which may cause the resulting output to be faulty.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees and Officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure to the Fund under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund had no prior claims or losses and expects the risks of loss to be remote.
8. MASTER NETTING AGREEMENTS
The Fund may enter into master netting agreements with its counterparties for the Securities Lending Program and Repurchase Agreements, which provide the right,
in the event of default (including bankruptcy or insolvency) for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund does not offset financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to master netting agreements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For securities lending transactions, see Note 4. At June 30, 2026, the Fund had no Repurchase Agreements outstanding.
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Fund has determined that no material events or transactions occurred through the issuance date of the Fund’s financial statements which require an additional disclosure in or adjustment of the Fund’s financial statements.

| AMG Renaissance Large Cap Growth Fund: Approval of Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement on June 3, 2026
At a meeting held on May 27, 2026, the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of AMG Funds (the “Trust”) considered, and at a meeting held in-person on June 3, 2026, the Board, and separately a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), approved (i) the Investment Management Agreement, as amended pursuant to letter agreements at any time prior to the date of the meeting, with AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) for AMG Renaissance Large Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund”) and separately each of Amendment No. 1 thereto dated July 1, 2015, and Amendment No. 2 thereto dated October 1, 2016 (collectively, the “Investment Management Agreement”); and (ii) the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to the Fund, as amended at any time prior to the date of the meeting (the “Subadvisory Agreement”), with The Renaissance Group LLC, the Fund’s subadviser (the “Subadviser”). The Independent Trustees were separately represented by independent legal counsel in connection with their consideration of the approval of these agreements. In considering the Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement, the Trustees reviewed a variety of materials relating to the Fund, the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, including the nature, extent and quality of services, comparative performance, fee and expense information for an appropriate peer group of similar mutual funds for the Fund (the “Peer Group”), performance information for the relevant benchmark index for the Fund (the “Fund Benchmark”), other relevant matters, including management fees, the profitability of the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, and the potential for economies of scale that may be shared with the Fund, and other information provided to them on a periodic basis throughout the year. Prior to voting, the Independent Trustees: (a) reviewed the foregoing information with their independent legal counsel; (b) received materials from their independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards applicable to their consideration of the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement; and (c) met with their independent legal counsel in private sessions at which no representatives of management were present. |
NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings relating to the Investment Manager’s operations and personnel. Among other things, the Investment Manager provided financial information, information about its supervisory and professional staff and descriptions of its organizational and management structure. The Trustees also took into account information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Investment Manager in Board meetings relating to the performance of its duties with respect to the Fund and the Trustees’ knowledge of the Investment Manager’s management and the quality of the performance of the Investment Manager’s duties under the Investment Management Agreement and Administration Agreement. In the course of their deliberations regarding the Investment Manager, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the extent and quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the operation and management of the Fund; (b) the quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the performance by the Subadviser of its portfolio management duties; (c) the Investment Manager’s ability to supervise the Fund’s other service providers; and (d) the Investment Manager’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account that, in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser, the Investment Manager: performs periodic detailed analyses and reviews of the performance by the Subadviser of its obligations to the Fund, including without limitation, analysis and review of portfolio and other compliance matters and review of the Subadviser’s investment performance with respect to the Fund; prepares and presents periodic reports to the Board regarding the investment performance of the Subadviser and other information regarding the Subadviser, at such times and in such forms as the Board may reasonably request; reviews and considers any changes in the personnel of the Subadviser responsible for performing the Subadviser’s obligations and makes appropriate reports to the Board; reviews and considers any changes in the ownership or senior management of the Subadviser and makes appropriate reports to the Board; performs periodic in-person, telephonic or videoconference diligence meetings, including with respect to compliance matters, with representatives of the Subadviser; |
assists the Board and management of the Trust in developing and reviewing information with respect to the initial approval of the Subadvisory Agreement and annual consideration of the Subadvisory Agreement thereafter; prepares recommendations with respect to the continued retention of the Subadviser or the replacement of the Subadviser, including at the request of the Board; identifies potential successors to, or replacements of, the Subadviser or potential additional subadvisers, including performing appropriate due diligence, and developing and presenting to the Board a recommendation as to any such successor, replacement, or additional subadviser, including at the request of the Board; designates and compensates from its own resources such personnel as the Investment Manager may consider necessary or appropriate to the performance of its services; and performs such other review and reporting functions as the Board shall reasonably request consistent with the Investment Management Agreement and applicable law. The Trustees noted the affiliation of the Subadviser with the Investment Manager, noting any potential conflicts of interest. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the Investment Manager with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Investment Management Agreement and the Investment Manager’s undertaking to maintain a contractual expense limitation for the Fund. The Trustees also considered the Investment Manager’s risk management processes.
The Trustees also reviewed information relating to the Subadviser’s operations and personnel and the investment philosophy, strategies and techniques (its “Investment Strategy”) used in managing the Fund. Among other things, the Trustees reviewed information on portfolio management and other professional staff, information regarding the Subadviser’s organizational and management structure and the Subadviser’s brokerage policies and practices. The Trustees considered specific information provided regarding the experience of the individuals at the Subadviser with portfolio management responsibility for the Fund, including the information set forth in the Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information. In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the services rendered by the Subadviser in the past; (b) the qualifications and experience of the Subadviser’s personnel; and (c) the Subadviser’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the |
18
|
ITEM 11. STATEMENT REGARDING BASIS FOR APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT
| ||
|
| ||
| Subadviser with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Subadvisory Agreement. The Trustees also considered the Subadviser’s risk management processes.
PERFORMANCE
The Board considered the Fund’s net performance during relevant time periods as compared to the Fund’s Peer Group and Fund Benchmark and noted that the Board reviews on a quarterly basis detailed information about both the Fund’s performance results and portfolio composition, as well as the Subadviser’s Investment Strategy. The Board was mindful of the Investment Manager’s expertise, resources and attention to monitoring the Subadviser’s performance, investment style and risk-adjusted performance with respect to the Fund and its discussions with the management of the Fund’s subadviser during the period regarding the factors that contributed to the performance of the Fund.
Among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class N shares (which share class has the largest amount of assets of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was below, below, above, and below, respectively, the median performance of the Peer Group and below the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s recent underperformance relative to the Peer Group and underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark. The Trustees also noted that the Fund ranked in the top decile relative to its Peer Group for the 2021 and 2022 calendar years. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions. |
ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY FEES; FUND EXPENSES; PROFITABILITY; AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE
In considering the reasonableness of the advisory fee payable to the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings setting forth all revenues and other benefits, both direct and indirect (including any so-called “fallout benefits” such as reputational value derived from the Investment Manager serving as Investment Manager to the Fund), received by the Investment Manager and its affiliates attributable to managing the Fund and all the mutual funds in the AMG Funds Family of Funds; the cost of providing such services; the significant risks undertaken as Investment Manager and sponsor of the Fund, including investment, operational, enterprise, entrepreneurial, litigation, regulatory and compliance risks; and the resulting profitability to the Investment Manager and its affiliates from these relationships. The Trustees also considered the amount of the advisory fee retained by the Investment Manager after payment of the subadvisory fee with respect to the Fund. The Trustees also considered management’s discussion of the current asset level of the Fund, and the impact on profitability of both the current asset level and any future growth of assets of the Fund.
In considering the cost of services to be provided by the Investment Manager under the Investment Management Agreement and the profitability to the Investment Manager of its relationship with the Fund, the Trustees noted the undertaking by the Investment Manager to maintain a contractual expense limitation for the Fund. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the advisory fee structure, and the services the Investment Manager provides in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Investment Manager is reasonable and that the Investment Manager is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the advisory fee at this time. Also, with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as the Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses.
In considering the reasonableness of the subadvisory fee payable by the Investment Manager to the Subadviser, the Trustees reviewed information |
regarding the cost to the Subadviser of providing subadvisory services to the Fund and the resulting profitability from the relationship. The Trustees noted that, because the Subadviser is an affiliate of the Investment Manager, a portion of the Subadviser’s revenues or profits might be shared directly or indirectly with the Investment Manager. The Trustees also noted that the subadvisory fees are paid by the Investment Manager out of its advisory fee. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the subadvisory fee structure, and the services the Subadviser provides in performing its functions under the Subadvisory Agreement. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Subadviser is reasonable and that the Subadviser is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the subadvisory fees at this time. Also, with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as the Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses.
The Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class I shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were rated in the Average and the Above Average rating level, respectively, of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.66%. The Trustees also considered that the Investment Manager was voluntarily waiving a portion of shareholder servicing fees for Class I shares of the Fund. The Trustees also took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses, including fees and expenses relative to comparably sized funds and select competitors. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable. |

| * * * *
After consideration of the foregoing, the Trustees also reached the following conclusions (in addition to the conclusions discussed above) regarding the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement: (a) the Investment Manager and the Subadviser have demonstrated that they possess the capability and resources to perform the duties required of them under the Investment
|
Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement and (b) the Investment Manager and Subadviser maintain appropriate compliance programs.
Based on all of the above-mentioned factors and their related conclusions, with no single factor or conclusion being determinative and with each Trustee not necessarily attributing the same weight to each factor, the Trustees concluded that approval |
of the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement would be in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AMG Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company, organized as a Massachusetts business trust, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Currently, the Trust consists of a number of different funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Included in this report are AMG TimesSquare Small Cap Growth Fund (“Small Cap”), AMG TimesSquare Mid Cap Growth Fund (“Mid Cap”) and AMG TimesSquare International Small Cap Fund (“International Small Cap”), each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”.
Each Fund offers Class N, Class I and Class Z shares. Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the respective Fund. Although all share classes generally have identical voting rights, each share class votes separately when required by law. Different share classes may have different net asset values per share to the extent the share classes pay different distribution amounts and/or the expenses of such share classes differ. Each share class has its own expense structure. Please refer to a current prospectus for additional information on each share class.
The Funds’ financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), including accounting and reporting guidance pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies. 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements:
a. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
Equity securities and exchange-traded funds traded on a national securities exchange or reported on the NASDAQ national market system (“NMS”) are valued at the last quoted sales price on the primary exchange or, if applicable, the NASDAQ official closing price or the official closing price of the relevant exchange or, lacking any sales, at the last quoted bid price. Equity securities held by the Funds that are traded in the over-the-counter market (other than NMS securities) are valued at the bid price. Foreign equity securities (securities principally traded in markets other than U.S. markets) held by the Funds are valued at the official closing price on the primary exchange or, for markets that either do not offer an official closing price or where the official closing price may not be representative of the overall market, the last quoted sale price.
Fixed income securities purchased with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, provided that the amortized cost value is approximately the same as the fair value of the security valued without the use of amortized cost. Investments in other open-end registered investment companies are valued at their end of day net asset value per share.
The Funds’ portfolio investments are generally valued based on independent market quotations or prices or, if none, “evaluative” or other market based valuations provided by third party pricing services. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) designated AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) as the Funds’ Valuation Designee to perform the
Funds’ fair value determinations. Such determinations are subject to Board oversight and certain reporting and other requirements intended to ensure that the Board receives the information it needs to oversee the Investment Manager’s fair value determinations.
Under certain circumstances, the value of certain Fund portfolio investments may be based on an evaluation of fair value, pursuant to procedures established by the Investment Manager and under the general supervision of the Board. The Funds may use the fair value of a portfolio investment to calculate its net asset value (“NAV”) in the event that the market quotation, price or market based valuation for the portfolio investment is not readily available or otherwise not determinable pursuant to the Funds’ valuation procedures, if the Investment Manager believes the quotation, price or market based valuation to be unreliable, or in certain other circumstances. When determining the fair value of an investment, the Investment Manager seeks to determine the price that the Funds might reasonably expect to receive from current sale of that portfolio investment in an arms-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon consideration of all available facts and information, including, but not limited to (i) attributes specific to the investment; (ii) fundamental and analytical data relating to the investment; and (iii) the value of other comparable securities or relevant financial instruments, including derivative securities, traded on other markets or among dealers.
The values assigned to fair value portfolio investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized in the future, since such amounts depend on future developments inherent in long-term investments. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and the differences could be material. The Board will be presented with quarterly reports, as of the most recent quarter end, summarizing all fair value activity, material fair value matters that occurred during the quarter, and all outstanding securities fair valued by the Funds. Additionally, the Board will be presented with an annual report that assesses the adequacy and effectiveness of the Investment Manager’s process for determining the fair value of the Funds’ investments.
With respect to foreign equity securities, securities held in the Funds that can be fair valued by the applicable fair value pricing service are fair valued on each business day provided that each individual price exceeds a pre-established confidence level.
U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. 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 Funds. Unobservable inputs reflect the Funds’ 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 – inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical investments (e.g., equity securities, open-end investment companies)
24
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| ||
|
| ||
Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs) (e.g., debt securities, government securities, foreign securities utilizing international fair value pricing, fair valued securities with observable inputs)
Level 3 – inputs are significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments) (e.g., fair valued securities with unobservable inputs)
Changes in inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may result in a transfer in or out of levels within the fair value hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may not necessarily be an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments.
b. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS
Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
c. INVESTMENT INCOME AND EXPENSES
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from foreign securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date, and if after the fact, as soon as the Funds become aware of the ex-dividend date, except for Korean securities where dividends are recorded on confirmation date. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is accrued as earned. Dividend and interest income on foreign securities is recorded gross of any withholding tax. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are reported at the fair market value of the securities received. Upon notification from the issuer, distributions received from a real estate investment trust (REIT) may be redesignated as a reduction of cost of investments and/or realized gain. Other income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Expenses that cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are apportioned among the funds in the Trust and other trusts or funds within the AMG Funds Family of Funds (collectively, the “AMG Funds Family”) based upon their relative average net assets or number of shareholders. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of each Fund, and certain fund level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of each Fund.
Small Cap and Mid Cap had certain portfolio trades directed to various brokers under a brokerage recapture program. Credits received from the brokerage recapture program are earned and paid on a monthly basis, and are recorded as expense offsets, which serve to reduce the Funds’ overall expense ratio. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the impact on the expenses and expense ratios, if any, was as follows: Small Cap - $32,652 or 0.03% and Mid Cap - $80,798 or 0.01%.
d. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Fund distributions resulting from either net investment income or realized net capital gains, if any, will normally be declared and paid at least annually in December. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax law, which may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains for financial
statement purposes (U.S. GAAP). Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Permanent book and tax basis differences, if any, relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense and gain or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Permanent differences for Mid Cap are primarily due to equalization utilized; Small Cap permanent differences are primarily due to equalization utilized, mark-to-market on passive foreign investment companies and a net operating loss; and International Small Cap had no permanent differences. Temporary differences for Small Cap are primarily due to mark-to-market on passive foreign investment companies; while temporary differences for International Small Cap are primarily due to mark-to-market on passive foreign investment companies, late-year ordinary loss deferral, and open foreign exchange contracts. In addition, each Fund has temporary differences due to wash sale loss deferrals.
At June 30, 2026, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes approximates the aggregate cost for book purposes. The approximate cost of investments and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
| Fund | Cost | Appreciation | Depreciation | Net Appreciation | ||||||||||||
| Small Cap |
$87,912,623 | $30,728,283 | $(5,655,887 | ) | $25,072,396 | |||||||||||
| Mid Cap |
1,186,011,078 | 617,167,659 | (77,579,022 | ) | 539,588,637 | |||||||||||
| International Small Cap |
97,692,645 | 24,238,246 | (2,265,775 | ) | 21,972,471 | |||||||||||
e. FEDERAL TAXES
Each Fund currently qualifies as an investment company and intends to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and gains to its shareholders and to meet certain diversification and income requirements with respect to investment companies. The Investment Manager has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (generally, the three prior taxable years), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Additionally, the Investment Manager is not aware of any tax position for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefit/detriment will change materially in the next twelve months.
Furthermore, based on each Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and transactions for the foreign jurisdictions in which it invests, each Fund will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign taxes.
f. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYOVERS AND DEFERRALS
As of December 31, 2025, the following Fund had capital loss carryovers for federal income tax purposes as shown in the following chart. These amounts may be used to offset future realized capital gains indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term.
| Fund | Short-Term | Long-Term | Total | |||||||||

As of December 31, 2025, Small Cap and Mid Cap had no capital loss carryovers for federal income tax purposes. Should the Funds incur net capital losses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026, such amounts may be used to offset future realized capital gains indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term.
g. CAPITAL STOCK
The Trust’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust authorizes for each Fund the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, without par value. Each Fund records sales and repurchases of its capital stock on the trade date.

At June 30, 2026, one unaffiliated shareholder of record held 7% of Small Cap’s shares outstanding. Transactions by this shareholder may have a material impact on Small Cap.
h. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Funds may enter into third-party and bilateral repurchase agreements for temporary cash management purposes and for reinvestment of cash collateral on securities lending transactions under the securities lending program offered by The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”) (the “Securities Lending Program”) (collectively, “Repurchase Agreements”). The value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest, must equal or exceed the value of the Repurchase Agreements during the term of the agreement. For joint repurchase agreements, the Funds participate on a pro rata basis with other clients of BNYM in their share of the underlying collateral under such joint repurchase agreements and in their share of proceeds from any repurchase or other disposition of the underlying collateral. The underlying collateral for all Repurchase Agreements is held by the Funds’ custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited. Pursuant to the Securities Lending Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by BNYM on joint repurchase agreements.
At June 30, 2026, the market value of Repurchase Agreements outstanding for Small Cap, Mid Cap and International Small Cap was $1,808,416, $19,356,400 and $3,080,494, respectively.
i. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. Dollars. The value of investments, assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. Dollars are translated into U.S. Dollars based upon current foreign exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investments, income and expenses are converted into U.S. Dollars based on currency exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions represent: (1) foreign exchange gains and losses from the sale and holdings of foreign currencies; (2) gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions and foreign currency exchange contracts; and (3) gains and losses from the difference between amounts of interest and dividends recorded and the amounts actually received.
The Funds do not isolate the net realized and unrealized gain or loss resulting from changes in exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
2. AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
For each of the Funds, the Trust has entered into an investment advisory agreement under which the Investment Manager, a subsidiary and the U.S. wealth platform of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“AMG”), serves as investment manager to the Funds and is responsible for the Funds’ overall administration and operations. The Investment Manager selects and recommends, subject to the approval of the Board and, in certain circumstances, shareholders, the subadviser for the Funds and monitors the subadviser’s investment performance, security holdings and investment strategies. Each Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by TimesSquare Capital Management, LLC (“TimesSquare”) who serves as subadviser pursuant to a subadvisory agreement with the Investment Manager. AMG indirectly owns a majority interest in TimesSquare.
Investment management fees are paid directly by the Funds to the Investment Manager based on average daily net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Funds’ investment management fees were paid at the following annual rates of each Fund’s respective average daily net assets:
| Small Cap |
0.76% | |||
| Mid Cap |
0.66% | |||
| International Small Cap |
0.75% | |||
The fee paid to TimesSquare for its services as subadviser is paid out of the fee the Investment Manager receives from each Fund and does not increase the expenses of each Fund.
The Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through at least May 1, 2027, to waive management fees and/or pay or reimburse fund expenses in order to limit total annual Fund operating expenses after fee waiver and expense reimbursements (exclusive of taxes, interest (including interest incurred in connection with bank and custody overdrafts, and in connection with securities sold short), shareholder servicing fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, brokerage commissions and other transaction costs, dividends payable with respect to securities sold short, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary expenses) of Small Cap, Mid Cap and International Small Cap to the annual rate of 0.96%, 1.13% and 1.05%, respectively, of each Fund’s average daily net assets (this annual rate or such other annual rate that may be in effect from time to time, the “Expense Cap”), subject to later reimbursement by the Funds in certain circumstances.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

|

In general, for a period of up to 36 months after the date any amounts are paid, waived or reimbursed by the Investment Manager, the Investment Manager may recover such amounts from a Fund, provided that such repayment would not cause the Fund’s total annual operating expenses after fee waiver and expense reimbursements (exclusive of the items noted in the parenthetical above) to exceed either (i) the Expense Cap in effect at the time such amounts were paid, waived or reimbursed, or (ii) the Expense Cap in effect at the time of such repayment by the Fund.
The contractual expense limitation may only be terminated in the event the Investment Manager or a successor ceases to be the investment manager of a Fund or a successor fund, by mutual agreement between the Investment Manager and the Board, or in the event of a Fund’s liquidation unless the Fund is reorganized or is a party to a merger in which the surviving entity is successor to the accounting and performance information of a Fund.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Investment Manager’s expense reimbursements, and repayments of prior reimbursements by the Funds to the Investment Manager, if any, are as follows:
| Expense Reimbursements |
Repayment of Prior Reimbursements | |||
| Small Cap |
$53,204 | — | ||
| Mid Cap |

At June 30, 2026, the Funds’ expiration of reimbursements subject to recoupment is as follows:

| Less than 1 year |
$83,840 | $45,044 | ||||||

The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, has entered into an amended and restated Administration Agreement under which the Investment Manager serves as the Funds’ administrator (the “Administrator”) and is responsible for certain aspects of managing the Funds’ operations, including administration and shareholder services to each Fund. Each Fund pays a fee to the Administrator at the rate of 0.15% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets for this service.
TimesSquare has agreed to waive a portion of the subadvisory fee payable by the Investment Manager in an amount equal to the aggregate management fee earned by TimesSquare from the TimesSquare Quality Mid Cap Growth ETF (the “ETF”) that is attributable to Mid Cap’s assets invested in the ETF (the “Fee Waiver Amount”) and the Investment Manager has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by Mid Cap equal to the Fee Waiver Amount. The Fee Waiver Amount shall reduce the management fee after the calculation of any necessary fee waiver or expense reimbursement in connection with Mid Cap’s expense limitation agreement and shall not be eligible for recoupment by the Investment Manager under the terms of such agreement. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Investment Manager waived management fees of $51,490 payable by the Fund.
The Funds are distributed by AMG Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Manager. The Distributor serves as the distributor and underwriter for each Fund and is a registered broker-dealer and member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”). Shares of each Fund will be continuously offered and will be sold directly to prospective purchasers and through brokers, dealers or other financial intermediaries who have executed selling agreements with the Distributor. Generally, the Distributor bears all or a portion of the expenses of providing services pursuant to the distribution agreement, including the payment of the expenses relating to the distribution of prospectuses for sales purposes and any advertising or sales literature.
For each of the Class N and Class I shares, the Board has approved reimbursement payments to the Investment Manager for shareholder servicing expenses (“shareholder servicing fees”) incurred. Shareholder servicing fees include payments to financial intermediaries, such as broker-dealers (including fund supermarket platforms), banks, and trust companies who provide shareholder recordkeeping, account servicing and other services. The Class N and Class I shares may reimburse the Investment Manager for the actual amount incurred up to a maximum annual rate of each Class’s average daily net assets as shown in the table below.
The impact on the annualized expense ratios for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was as follows:
| Maximum Annual | Actual | |||||||
| Amount | Amount | |||||||
| Fund | Approved | Incurred | ||||||
| Small Cap |

The Board provides supervision of the affairs of the Trust and other trusts within the AMG Funds Family. The Trustees of the Trust who are not affiliated with the Investment Manager receive an annual retainer and per meeting fees for regular, special and telephonic meetings, and they are reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incurred while carrying out their duties as Board members. The Chairman of the Board and the Audit Committee Chair receive additional annual retainers. Certain Trustees and Officers of the Funds are Officers and/or Directors of the Investment Manager, AMG and/or the Distributor.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) granted an exemptive order that permits certain eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family to lend and borrow money for certain temporary purposes directly to and from other eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family. Participation in this interfund lending program is voluntary for both the borrowing and lending funds, and an interfund loan is only made if it benefits each participating fund. The Administrator manages the program according to procedures approved by the Board, and the Board monitors the operation of the program. An interfund loan must comply with certain conditions

set out in the exemptive order, which are designed to assure fairness and protect all participating funds. The interest earned and interest paid on interfund loans are included on the Statement of Operations as interest income and interest expense, respectively. At June 30, 2026, the Funds had no interfund loans outstanding. Mid Cap did not utilize the interfund lending program during the six months ended June 30, 2026.

42,482,421 | 51,655,872 | ||||||
The Funds had no purchases or sales of U.S. Government Obligations during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
4. PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED
The Funds participate in the Securities Lending Program providing for the lending of securities to qualified borrowers. Securities lending income includes earnings of such temporary cash investments, plus or minus any rebate to a borrower. These earnings (after any rebate) are then divided between BNYM, as a fee for its services under the Securities Lending Program, and the Funds, according to agreed-upon rates. Collateral on all securities loaned is accepted in cash, U.S. Treasury Obligations or U.S. Government Agency Obligations. Collateral is maintained at a minimum level of 102% (105% in the case of certain foreign securities) of the market value, plus interest, if applicable, of investments on loan. It is the Funds’ policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Funds if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. Under the terms of the Securities Lending Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by BNYM. Cash collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM, who is
authorized to exclusively enter into joint repurchase agreements for that cash collateral. Securities collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM and cannot be sold or pledged. BNYM bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the cash collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities as soon as practical, which is normally within three business days.
The value of securities loaned on positions held, cash collateral and securities collateral received at June 30, 2026, was as follows:
| Fund | Securities Loaned |
Cash Collateral Received |
Securities Collateral Received |
Total Collateral Received |

5. SEGMENT REPORTING
Each Fund operates through a single operating and reporting segment to achieve its investment objective as reflected in each Fund’s prospectus. The Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”) are the Funds’ president and chief financial officer. The CODM assesses the performance and makes operating decisions for each Fund primarily based on each Fund’s changes in net assets resulting from operations. In addition to other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes each Fund’s net assets, total return, and ratios of net and gross expenses to average net assets as key metrics in reviewing the performance of each Fund. As each Fund’s operations comprise a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “Total assets” and the significant segment expenses are listed on the Statement of Operations.
6. FUND RISKS
In the normal course of business, the Funds invest in securities or other instruments and may enter into certain transactions, and such activities subject the Funds to various risks. Below is a summary of some, but not all, of those risks. Each risk described below does not necessarily apply to each Fund. Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for a description of the principal risks associated with investing in a particular Fund. The value of securities or other instruments may also be affected by various factors, including, without limitation: (i) the general economy; (ii) the overall market as well as local, regional or global political and/or social instability; or (iii) currency and price fluctuations.
Currency Risk: Fluctuations in exchange rates may affect the total loss or gain on a non-U.S. dollar investment when converted back to U.S. dollars and exposure to non-U.S. currencies may subject the Funds to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. The values of foreign currencies relative

|
| ||
to the U.S. dollar may fluctuate in response to, among other factors, interest rate changes, intervention (or failure to intervene) by national governments, central banks, or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, the imposition of currency controls, and other political or regulatory developments.
Emerging Markets Risk: Investments in emerging markets are subject to the general risks of foreign investments, as well as additional risks which can result in greater price volatility. Such additional risks include the risk that markets in emerging market countries are typically less developed and less liquid than markets in developed countries and such markets are subjected to increased economic, political, or regulatory uncertainties.
Foreign Investment Risk: Investments in foreign issuers involve additional risks (such as risks arising from less frequent trading, changes in political or social conditions, and less publicly available information about non-U.S. issuers) that differ from those associated with investments in U.S. issuers and may result in greater price volatility.
Geographic Focus Risk: To the extent a Fund focuses its investments in a particular country, group of countries or geographic region, the Fund is particularly susceptible to economic, political, regulatory or other events or conditions affecting such countries or region, and the Fund’s NAV may be more volatile than the NAV of a more geographically diversified fund and may result in losses.
Risks Associated with Investment in Japan: Investments in Japan are susceptible to the social, political, economic, regulatory and other conditions or events that may affect Japan’s economy. The Japanese economy is heavily dependent upon international trade, and, therefore, is particularly exposed to the risks of currency fluctuation, foreign trade policy and regional and global economic disruption, including the risk of increased tariffs, embargoes, and other trade limitations or factors. The Japanese economy, at times, has been impacted by government regulation, intervention, and protectionism; cross-ownership among major corporations; an aging demographic; and a declining population. The potential for natural disasters, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, typhoons and tsunamis, could also have significant negative effects on Japan’s economy.
Growth Stock Risk: The prices of equity securities of companies that are expected to experience relatively rapid earnings growth, or “growth stocks,” may be more sensitive to market movements because the prices tend to reflect future investor expectations rather than just current profits.
Liquidity Risk: The Funds may not be able to dispose of particular investments, such as illiquid securities, readily at favorable times or prices or the Funds may have to sell them at a loss.
Management Risk: Because the Funds are actively managed investment portfolios, security selection or focus on securities in a particular style, market sector or group of companies may cause the Funds to incur losses or underperform relative to their benchmarks or other funds with a similar investment objective. There can be no guarantee that TimesSquare’s investment techniques and risk analysis will produce the desired result.
Market Risk: Market prices of investments held by the Funds may fall rapidly or unpredictably due to a variety of factors, including economic or market conditions, or other factors including terrorism, war, natural disasters and the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, including epidemics or pandemics, or in response to events that affect particular industries or companies. In addition, unexpected political, regulatory, trade and diplomatic events within the United States and abroad may affect investor and consumer confidence and may adversely impact financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree.
Political Risk: Changes in the general political and social environment of a country can have substantial effects on the value of investments exposed to that country.
Sector Risk: Issuers and companies that are in similar industry sectors may be similarly affected by particular economic or market events; to the extent the Funds have substantial holdings within a particular sector, the risks associated with that sector increase.
Small- and Mid- Capitalization Stock Risk: The stocks of small- and mid-capitalization companies often have greater price volatility, lower trading volume, and less liquidity than the stocks of larger, more established companies.
7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees and Officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure to the Funds under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against a Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds had no prior claims or losses and expect the risks of loss to be remote.
8. MASTER NETTING AGREEMENTS
The Funds may enter into master netting agreements with their counterparties for the Securities Lending Program and Repurchase Agreements, which provide the right, in the event of default (including bankruptcy or insolvency) for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to master netting agreements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For securities lending transactions, see Note 4.

| AMG TimesSquare Mid Cap Growth Fund, AMG TimesSquare Small Cap Growth Fund, and AMG TimesSquare International Small Cap Fund: Approval of Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements on June 3, 2026
At a meeting held on May 27, 2026, the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of AMG Funds (the “Trust”) considered, and at a meeting held in-person on June 3, 2026, the Board, and separately a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), approved (i) the Investment Management Agreement, as amended pursuant to letter agreements at any time prior to the date of the meeting, with AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) for each of AMG TimesSquare Mid Cap Growth Fund, AMG TimesSquare Small Cap Growth Fund, and AMG TimesSquare International Small Cap Fund (each, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”) and separately each of Amendment No. 1 thereto dated July 1, 2015, and Amendment No. 2 thereto dated October 1, 2016 (collectively, the “Investment Management Agreement”); and (ii) the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, as amended at any time prior to the date of the meeting (collectively, the “Subadvisory Agreements”), with TimesSquare Capital Management, LLC, the Funds’ subadviser (the “Subadviser”). The Independent Trustees were separately represented by independent legal counsel in connection with their consideration of the approval of these agreements. In considering the Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements, the Trustees reviewed a variety of materials relating to each Fund, the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, including the nature, extent and quality of services, comparative performance, fee and expense information for an appropriate peer group of similar mutual funds for each Fund (each, a “Peer Group”), performance information for the relevant benchmark index for each Fund (each, a “Fund Benchmark”), other relevant matters, including management fees, the profitability of the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, and the potential for economies of scale that may be shared with the Funds, and other information provided to them on a periodic basis throughout the year. Prior to voting, the Independent Trustees: (a) reviewed the foregoing information with their independent legal counsel; (b) received materials from their independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards applicable to their consideration of the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements; and (c) |
met with their independent legal counsel in private sessions at which no representatives of management were present.
NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings relating to the Investment Manager’s operations and personnel. Among other things, the Investment Manager provided financial information, information about its supervisory and professional staff and descriptions of its organizational and management structure. The Trustees also took into account information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Investment Manager in Board meetings relating to the performance of its duties with respect to the Funds and the Trustees’ knowledge of the Investment Manager’s management and the quality of the performance of the Investment Manager’s duties under the Investment Management Agreement and Administration Agreement. In the course of their deliberations regarding the Investment Manager, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the extent and quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the operation and management of the Funds; (b) the quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the performance by the Subadviser of its portfolio management duties; (c) the Investment Manager’s ability to supervise the Funds’ other service providers; and (d) the Investment Manager’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account that, in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser, the Investment Manager: performs periodic detailed analyses and reviews of the performance by the Subadviser of its obligations to each Fund, including without limitation, analysis and review of portfolio and other compliance matters and review of the Subadviser’s investment performance with respect to each Fund; prepares and presents periodic reports to the Board regarding the investment performance of the Subadviser and other information regarding the Subadviser, at such times and in such forms as the Board may reasonably request; reviews and considers any changes in the personnel of the Subadviser responsible for performing the Subadviser’s obligations and makes appropriate reports to the Board; reviews and considers any changes in the ownership or senior management of the Subadviser and makes appropriate reports to the Board; performs periodic |
in-person, telephonic or videoconference diligence meetings, including with respect to compliance matters, with representatives of the Subadviser; assists the Board and management of the Trust in developing and reviewing information with respect to the initial approval of the Subadvisory Agreements and annual consideration of the Subadvisory Agreements thereafter; prepares recommendations with respect to the continued retention of the Subadviser or the replacement of the Subadviser, including at the request of the Board; identifies potential successors to, or replacements of, the Subadviser or potential additional subadvisers, including performing appropriate due diligence, and developing and presenting to the Board a recommendation as to any such successor, replacement, or additional subadviser, including at the request of the Board; designates and compensates from its own resources such personnel as the Investment Manager may consider necessary or appropriate to the performance of its services; and performs such other review and reporting functions as the Board shall reasonably request consistent with the Investment Management Agreement and applicable law. The Trustees noted the affiliation of the Subadviser with the Investment Manager, noting any potential conflicts of interest. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the Investment Manager with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Investment Management Agreement and the Investment Manager’s undertaking to maintain contractual expense limitations for the Funds. The Trustees also considered the Investment Manager’s risk management processes.
The Trustees also reviewed information relating to the Subadviser’s operations and personnel and the investment philosophy, strategies and techniques (its “Investment Strategy”) used in managing each Fund. Among other things, the Trustees reviewed information on portfolio management and other professional staff, information regarding the Subadviser’s organizational and management structure and the Subadviser’s brokerage policies and practices. The Trustees considered specific information provided regarding the experience of the individuals at the Subadviser with portfolio management responsibility for each Fund, including the information set forth in the Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information. In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the services rendered by the Subadviser in the past; (b) the qualifications and experience of the Subadviser’s personnel; and (c) the | ||||||

|

| ||
|
| ||
| Subadviser’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the Subadviser with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Subadvisory Agreements. The Trustees also considered the Subadviser’s risk management processes.
PERFORMANCE
The Board considered each Fund’s net performance during relevant time periods as compared to the Fund’s Peer Group and Fund Benchmark and noted that the Board reviews on a quarterly basis detailed information about both the Fund’s performance results and portfolio composition, as well as the Subadviser’s Investment Strategy. The Board was mindful of the Investment Manager’s expertise, resources and attention to monitoring the Subadviser’s performance, investment style and risk-adjusted performance with respect to the Funds and its discussions with the management of the Funds’ subadviser during the period regarding the factors that contributed to the performance of the Funds. With respect to AMG TimesSquare Small Cap Growth Fund and AMG TimesSquare International Small Cap Fund, the Board considered information relating to the gross performance of such Funds as compared to the Subadviser’s relevant performance composite that utilizes a similar investment strategy and approach.
With respect to AMG TimesSquare Mid Cap Growth Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class Z shares (which share class has one of the earliest inception dates and the largest amount of assets of the share classes of the Fund with that inception date) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was below, below, above, and above, respectively, the median performance of the Peer Group and below the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s more recent underperformance relative to the Peer Group and underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark. The Trustees also noted that Class Z shares of the Fund ranked in the top third relative to its Peer Group for the 5-year and 10-year periods. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees |
concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
With respect to AMG TimesSquare Small Cap Growth Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class Z shares (which share class has one of the earliest inception dates and the largest amount of assets of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was below the median performance of the Peer Group and below the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark and the Peer Group. The Trustees also noted that the Fund ranked in the top half relative to its Peer Group for the 2024 and 2022 calendar years. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
With respect to AMG TimesSquare International Small Cap Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class Z shares (which share class has one of the earliest inception dates and the largest amount of assets of all the share classes of the Fund with that inception date) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was above, above, above, and below, respectively, the median performance of the Peer Group and below the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Small Cap Index. The Trustees took into account the reasons for the Fund’s recent outperformance relative to its Peer Group and underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark. The Trustees also noted that the Fund ranked in the top quintile relative to its Peer Group for the 2025 calendar year. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the |
Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY FEES; FUND EXPENSES; PROFITABILITY; AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE
In considering the reasonableness of the advisory fee payable to the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings setting forth all revenues and other benefits, both direct and indirect (including any so-called “fallout benefits” such as reputational value derived from the Investment Manager serving as Investment Manager to a Fund), received by the Investment Manager and its affiliates attributable to managing each Fund and all the mutual funds in the AMG Funds Family of Funds; the cost of providing such services; the significant risks undertaken as Investment Manager and sponsor of the Funds, including investment, operational, enterprise, entrepreneurial, litigation, regulatory and compliance risks; and the resulting profitability to the Investment Manager and its affiliates from these relationships. The Trustees also considered the amount of the advisory fee retained by the Investment Manager after payment of the subadvisory fee with respect to each Fund. The Trustees also noted payments are made from the Subadviser to the Investment Manager, and other payments are made from the Investment Manager to the Subadviser. The Trustees also considered management’s discussion of the current asset level of each Fund, and the impact on profitability of both the current asset levels and any future growth of assets of the Funds.
In considering the cost of services to be provided by the Investment Manager under the Investment Management Agreement and the profitability to the Investment Manager of its relationship with each Fund, the Trustees noted the undertaking by the Investment Manager to maintain contractual expense limitations for the Funds. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the advisory fee structure, and the services the Investment Manager provides in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Investment Manager is reasonable and that the Investment Manager is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would | ||||||
34
|
ITEM 11. STATEMENT REGARDING BASIS FOR APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT
| ||
|
| ||
| warrant adjustments to the advisory fee at this time. Also, with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as each Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses.
In considering the reasonableness of the subadvisory fees payable by the Investment Manager to the Subadviser, the Trustees reviewed information regarding the cost to the Subadviser of providing subadvisory services to each Fund and the resulting profitability from the relationships. The Trustees noted that, because the Subadviser is an affiliate of the Investment Manager, a portion of the Subadviser’s revenues or profits might be shared directly or indirectly with the Investment Manager. The Trustees also noted that the subadvisory fees are paid by the Investment Manager out of its advisory fee. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the subadvisory fee structure, and the services the Subadviser provides in performing its functions under the Subadvisory Agreements. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Subadviser is reasonable and that the Subadviser is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the subadvisory fees at this time. Also, with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as a Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses.
With respect to AMG TimesSquare Mid Cap Growth Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class Z shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were both rated in the Above Average rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating levels corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to |
certain excluded expenses) to 1.13%. The Trustees also took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses, including fees and expenses relative to comparably sized funds and select competitors. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
With respect to AMG TimesSquare Small Cap Growth Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class Z shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were both rated in the Above Average rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.96%. The Trustees also took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses, including fees and expenses relative to comparably sized funds and select competitors. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
With respect to AMG TimesSquare International Small Cap Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class I shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were rated in the Below |
Average and the Above Average rating level, respectively, of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating levels corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 1.05%. The Trustees also took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses, including fees and expenses relative to comparably sized funds and select competitors. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
* * * *
After consideration of the foregoing, the Trustees also reached the following conclusions (in addition to the conclusions discussed above) regarding the Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements: (a) the Investment Manager and the Subadviser have demonstrated that they possess the capability and resources to perform the duties required of them under the Investment Management Agreement and each Subadvisory Agreement and (b) the Investment Manager and Subadviser maintain appropriate compliance programs.
Based on all of the above-mentioned factors and their related conclusions, with no single factor or conclusion being determinative and with each Trustee not necessarily attributing the same weight to each factor, the Trustees concluded that approval of the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements would be in the best interests of the applicable Fund and its shareholders. Accordingly, on June 3, 2026, the Trustees, and separately a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve the Investment Management and the Subadvisory Agreements for each Fund. | ||||||

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AMG Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company, organized as a Massachusetts business trust, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Currently, the Trust consists of a number of different funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Included in this report are AMG Yacktman Fund (“Yacktman Fund”), AMG Yacktman Focused Fund (“Yacktman Focused”), AMG Yacktman Global Fund (“Yacktman Global”) and AMG Yacktman Special Opportunities Fund (“Yacktman Special Opportunities”), each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”.
Each Fund offers different classes of shares. Yacktman Fund and Yacktman Special Opportunities have established Class N, Class I and Class Z shares. Currently, Yacktman Fund offers only Class I shares and Yacktman Special Opportunities offers only Class I and Class Z shares. Yacktman Focused and Yacktman Global have established and offer Class N and Class I shares. Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the respective Fund. Although all share classes generally have identical voting rights, each share class votes separately when required by law. Different share classes may have different net asset values per share to the extent the share classes pay different distribution amounts and/or the expenses of such share classes differ. Each share class has its own expense structure. Please refer to a current prospectus for additional information on each share class.
Yacktman Focused, Yacktman Global and Yacktman Special Opportunities are non-diversified Funds.
The Funds’ financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), including accounting and reporting guidance pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies. 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements:
a. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
Equity securities, including options, traded on a national securities exchange or reported on the NASDAQ national market system (“NMS”) are valued at the last quoted sales price on the primary exchange or, if applicable, the NASDAQ official closing price or the official closing price of the relevant exchange or, lacking any sales, at the last quoted bid price. Equity securities held by the Funds that are traded in the over-the-counter market (other than NMS securities) are valued at the bid price. Foreign equity securities (securities principally traded in markets other than U.S. markets) held by the Funds are valued at the official closing price on the primary exchange or, for markets that either do not offer an official closing price or where the official closing price may not be representative of the overall market, the last quoted sale price.
Fixed income securities purchased with a remaining maturity exceeding 60 days are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an authorized pricing service or, if an evaluated price is not available, by reference to other securities which are
considered comparable in credit rating, interest rate, due date and other features (generally referred to as “matrix pricing”) or other similar pricing methodologies.
Fixed income securities purchased with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, provided that the amortized cost value is approximately the same as the fair value of the security valued without the use of amortized cost. Investments in other open-end registered investment companies are valued at their end of day net asset value per share.
The Funds’ portfolio investments are generally valued based on independent market quotations or prices or, if none, “evaluative” or other market based valuations provided by third party pricing services. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) designated AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) as the Funds’ Valuation Designee to perform the Funds’ fair value determinations. Such determinations are subject to Board oversight and certain reporting and other requirements intended to ensure that the Board receives the information it needs to oversee the Investment Manager’s fair value determinations.
Under certain circumstances, the value of certain Fund portfolio investments may be based on an evaluation of fair value, pursuant to procedures established by the Investment Manager and under the general supervision of the Board. The Funds may use the fair value of a portfolio investment to calculate its net asset value (“NAV”) in the event that the market quotation, price or market based valuation for the portfolio investment is not readily available or otherwise not determinable pursuant to the Funds’ valuation procedures, if the Investment Manager believes the quotation, price or market based valuation to be unreliable, or in certain other circumstances. When determining the fair value of an investment, the Investment Manager seeks to determine the price that the Funds might reasonably expect to receive from current sale of that portfolio investment in an arms-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon consideration of all available facts and information, including, but not limited to (i) attributes specific to the investment; (ii) fundamental and analytical data relating to the investment; and (iii) the value of other comparable securities or relevant financial instruments, including derivative securities, traded on other markets or among dealers.
The values assigned to fair value portfolio investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized in the future, since such amounts depend on future developments inherent in long-term investments. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and the differences could be material. The Board will be presented with quarterly reports, as of the most recent quarter end, summarizing all fair value activity, material fair value matters that occurred during the quarter, and all outstanding securities fair valued by the Funds. Additionally, the Board will be presented with an annual report that assesses the adequacy and effectiveness of the Investment Manager’s process for determining the fair value of the Funds’ investments.
With respect to foreign equity securities, securities held in the Funds that can be fair valued by the applicable fair value pricing service are fair valued on each business day provided that each individual price exceeds a pre-established confidence level.
U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. 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
25

|
| ||
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 Funds. Unobservable inputs reflect the Funds’ 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 – inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical investments (e.g., equity securities, option contracts, open-end investment companies)
Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs) (e.g., debt securities, government securities, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, foreign securities utilizing international fair value pricing, fair valued securities with observable inputs)
Level 3 – inputs are significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments) (e.g., fair valued securities with unobservable inputs)
Changes in inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may result in a transfer in or out of levels within the fair value hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may not necessarily be an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments.
b. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS
Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
c. INVESTMENT INCOME AND EXPENSES
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from foreign securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date, and if after the fact, as soon as the Funds become aware of the ex-dividend date, except for Korean securities where dividends are recorded on confirmation date. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is accrued as earned. Dividend and interest income on foreign securities is recorded gross of any withholding tax. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are reported at the fair market value of the securities received. Other income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Expenses that cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are apportioned among the funds in the Trust and other trusts or funds within the AMG Funds Family of Funds (collectively, the “AMG Funds Family”) based upon their relative average net assets or number of shareholders. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of each Fund, and certain fund level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of each Fund.
d. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Fund distributions resulting from either net investment income or realized net capital gains, if any, will normally be declared and paid at least annually in December. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax law, which may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains for financial statement purposes (U.S. GAAP). Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Permanent book and tax basis differences, if any, relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense and gain or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Permanent differences for Yacktman Fund, Yacktman Focused and Yacktman Special Opportunities are primarily due to equalization utilized. Yacktman Global had no permanent differences. Temporary differences for Yacktman Focused are due to callable bond premiums. In addition, temporary differences for each Fund are due to wash sale loss deferrals and mark-to-market on passive foreign investment companies.
At June 30, 2026, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes approximates the aggregate cost for book purposes. The approximate cost of investments and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
| Fund

17,818,211 | 7,364,524 | (2,315,491 | ) | 5,049,033 | |||||||||||
e. FEDERAL TAXES
Each Fund currently qualifies as an investment company and intends to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and gains to its shareholders and to meet certain diversification and income requirements with respect to investment companies. The Investment Manager has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (generally, the three prior taxable years), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Additionally, the Investment Manager is not aware of any tax position for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefit/detriment will change materially in the next twelve months.
Furthermore, based on each Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and transactions for the foreign jurisdictions in which it invests, each Fund will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign taxes.

f. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYOVERS AND DEFERRALS
As of December 31, 2025, the Funds had no capital loss carryovers for federal income tax purposes. Should the Funds incur net capital losses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026, such amounts may be used to offset future realized capital gains indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term.
g. CAPITAL STOCK
The Trust’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust authorizes for each Fund the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, without par value. Each Fund records sales and repurchases of its capital stock on the trade date.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026 (unaudited) and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the capital stock transactions by class for the Funds were as follows:

Transactions by shareholders of record that individually or collectively hold greater than 5% of a Fund’s shares outstanding may have a material impact on a Fund. At June 30, 2026, one affiliated investor, Yacktman Asset Management LP, owned 29% and three shareholders collectively owned 24% of Yacktman Special Opportunities’ shares outstanding, and one shareholder owned 5% of Yacktman Global’s shares outstanding.
h. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Funds may enter into third-party and bilateral repurchase agreements for temporary cash management purposes and for reinvestment of cash collateral on securities lending transactions under the securities lending program offered by The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”) (the “Securities Lending Program”) (collectively, “Repurchase Agreements”). The value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest, must equal or exceed the value of the Repurchase Agreements during the term of the agreement. For joint repurchase agreements, the Funds participate on a pro rata basis with other clients of BNYM in their share of the underlying collateral under such joint repurchase agreements and in their share of proceeds from any repurchase or other disposition of the underlying collateral. The underlying collateral for all Repurchase Agreements is held by the Funds’ custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited. Pursuant to the Securities Lending Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by BNYM on joint repurchase agreements.
At June 30, 2026, the market value of Repurchase Agreements outstanding for Yacktman Fund, Yacktman Focused, Yacktman Global and Yacktman Special Opportunities was $286,456,692, $120,527,730, $1,163,638 and $55,905, respectively.
i. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. Dollars. The value of investments, assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. Dollars are translated into U.S. Dollars based upon current foreign exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investments, income and expenses are converted into U.S. Dollars based on currency exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions represent: (1) foreign exchange gains and losses from the sale and holdings of foreign currencies; (2) gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions and foreign currency exchange contracts; and (3) gains and losses from the difference between amounts of interest and dividends recorded and the amounts actually received.
The Funds do not isolate the net realized and unrealized gain or loss resulting from changes in exchange rates from the fluctuations in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
2. AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
For each of the Funds, the Trust has entered into an investment advisory agreement under which the Investment Manager, a subsidiary and the U.S. wealth platform of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“AMG”), serves as investment manager to the Funds and is responsible for the Funds’ overall administration and operations. The Investment Manager selects and recommends, subject to the approval of the Board and, in certain circumstances, shareholders, the subadviser for the Funds and monitors the subadviser’s investment performance, security holdings and investment strategies. Each Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by Yacktman Asset Management LP (“Yacktman”) who serves as subadviser
pursuant to a subadvisory agreement with the Investment Manager. AMG indirectly owns a majority interest in Yacktman.
Investment management fees are paid directly by the Funds to the Investment Manager based on average daily net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Funds’ investment management fees were paid at the following annual rates of each Fund’s respective average daily net assets:
| Yacktman Fund |
0.43%1 | |
| on first $500 million |
0.52% | |
| next $500 million |
0.47% | |
| over $1 billion |
0.42% | |
| Yacktman Focused |
0.87% | |
| Yacktman Global |
0.71% | |
| Yacktman Special Opportunities |
1.37% | |
| 1 | The rate shown is the effective rate as of June 30, 2026. |
The fee paid to Yacktman for its services as subadviser is paid out of the fee the Investment Manager receives from each Fund and does not increase the expenses of each Fund.
Yacktman Special Opportunities has a performance-based fee structure that consists of an investment management fee and a performance adjustment (“Performance Adjustment”). The monthly investment management fee is increased or reduced by the Performance Adjustment, based on the Fund’s performance relative to the MSCI ACWI All Cap Index over the then preceding twelve months. The performance adjustment for each month ranges from an annual rate of -0.75% to +0.75% and is multiplied by the Fund’s average monthly net assets for the prior rolling 12 months. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Performance Adjustment decreased the investment management fee by a net amount of $32,907 or an annualized rate of 0.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets, resulting in an effective investment management fee rate of 1.12% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
The Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through at least May 1, 2027, to waive management fees and/or pay or reimburse fund expenses in order to limit total annual fund operating expenses after fee waiver and expense reimbursements (exclusive of taxes, interest (including interest incurred in connection with bank and custody overdrafts, and in connection with securities sold short), brokerage commissions and other transaction costs, dividends payable with respect to securities sold short, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses, as well as shareholder servicing fees and distribution and service (12b-1) fees and, with respect to Yacktman Special Opportunities, investment management fees and administrative fees) of Yacktman Global and Yacktman Special Opportunities to the annual rate of 0.93% and 0.12%, respectively, of each Fund’s average daily net assets (this annual rate or such other annual rate that may be in effect for the applicable Fund or share class from time to time, the “Expense Cap”), subject to later reimbursement by the applicable Fund in certain circumstances.
In general, for a period of up to 36 months after the date any amounts are paid, waived or reimbursed by the Investment Manager, the Investment Manager may

| ||
recover such amounts from a Fund, provided that such repayment would not cause the Fund’s total annual operating expenses after fee waiver and expense reimbursements (exclusive of the items noted in the parenthetical above) to exceed either (i) the Expense Cap in effect at the time such amounts were paid, waived or reimbursed, or (ii) the Expense Cap in effect at the time of such repayment by the Fund.
The contractual expense limitation may only be terminated in the event the Investment Manager or a successor ceases to be the investment manager of a Fund or a successor fund, by mutual agreement between the Investment Manager and the Board, or in the event of a Fund’s liquidation (unless the Fund is reorganized or is a party to a merger in which the surviving entity is successor to the accounting and performance information of a Fund).
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Investment Manager’s expense reimbursements, and repayments of prior reimbursements by the Funds to the Investment Manager, if any, are as follows:
| Expense | Repayment of | |||||||
| Reimbursements | Prior Reimbursements | |||||||

The Investment Manager has agreed to waive a portion of its investment management fee in consideration of a shareholder servicing rebate that it has received from JPMorgan Distribution Services, Inc., with respect to direct investments in the JPMorgan U.S. Government Money Market Fund, IM Shares by Yacktman Fund and Yacktman Focused. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the investment management fees for Yacktman Fund and Yacktman Focused were reduced by $57,333 and $29,471, respectively, or less than 0.01% of each Fund’s average daily net assets.
The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, has entered into an amended and restated Administration Agreement under which the Investment Manager serves as the Funds’ administrator (the “Administrator”) and is responsible for certain aspects of managing the Funds’ operations, including administration and shareholder services to each Fund. Each Fund pays a fee to the Administrator at the rate of 0.15% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets for this service.
The Funds are distributed by AMG Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Manager. The Distributor serves as the distributor and underwriter for each Fund and is a registered broker-dealer and member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”). Shares of each Fund will be continuously offered and will be sold directly to prospective purchasers and through brokers, dealers or other financial intermediaries who
have executed selling agreements with the Distributor. Generally, the Distributor bears all or a portion of the expenses of providing services pursuant to the distribution agreement, including the payment of the expenses relating to the distribution of prospectuses for sales purposes and any advertising or sales literature.
For Class N of Yacktman Focused and Yacktman Global and for Class I of Yacktman Fund and Yacktman Special Opportunities, the Board has approved reimbursement payments to the Investment Manager for shareholder servicing expenses (“shareholder servicing fees”) incurred. Shareholder servicing fees include payments to financial intermediaries, such as broker-dealers (including fund supermarket platforms), banks, and trust companies who provide shareholder recordkeeping, account servicing and other services. The Class N shares of Yacktman Focused and Yacktman Global and Class I shares of Yacktman Fund and Yacktman Special Opportunities may reimburse the Investment Manager for the actual amount incurred up to a maximum annual rate of each Class’s average daily net assets as shown in the table below.
The impact on the annualized expense ratios for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was as follows:

The Board provides supervision of the affairs of the Trust and other trusts within the AMG Funds Family. The Trustees of the Trust who are not affiliated with the Investment Manager receive an annual retainer and per meeting fees for regular, special and telephonic meetings, and they are reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incurred while carrying out their duties as Board members. The Chairman of the Board and the Audit Committee Chair receive additional annual retainers. Certain Trustees and Officers of the Funds are Officers and/or Directors of the Investment Manager, AMG and/or the Distributor.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) granted an exemptive order that permits certain eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family to lend and borrow money for certain temporary purposes directly to and from other eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family. Participation in this interfund lending program is voluntary for both the borrowing and lending funds, and an interfund loan is only made if it benefits each participating fund. The Administrator manages the program according to procedures approved by the Board, and the Board monitors the operation of the program. An interfund loan must comply with certain conditions set out in the exemptive order, which are designed to assure fairness and protect all participating funds. The interest earned and interest paid on interfund loans are included on the Statement of Operations as interest income and interest expense, respectively. At June 30, 2026, the Funds had no interfund loans outstanding. The Funds did not borrow during the six months ended June 30, 2026.

The Funds had no purchases or sales of U.S. Government Obligations during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
4. PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED
The Funds participate in the Securities Lending Program providing for the lending of securities to qualified borrowers. Securities lending income includes earnings of such temporary cash investments, plus or minus any rebate to a borrower. These earnings (after any rebate) are then divided between BNYM, as a fee for its services under the Securities Lending Program, and the Funds, according to agreed-upon rates. Collateral on all securities loaned is accepted in cash, U.S. Treasury Obligations or U.S. Government Agency Obligations. Collateral is maintained at a minimum level of 102% (105% in the case of certain foreign securities) of the market value, plus interest, if applicable, of investments on loan. It is the Funds’ policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Funds if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. Under the terms of the Securities Lending Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by BNYM. Cash collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM, who is authorized to exclusively enter into joint repurchase agreements for that cash collateral. Securities collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM and cannot be sold or pledged. BNYM bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the cash collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities as soon as practical, which is normally within three business days.
The value of securities loaned on positions held, cash collateral and securities collateral received at June 30, 2026, was as follows:
| Fund | Securities Loaned |
Cash Collateral Received |
Securities Collateral Received |
Total Collateral Received | ||||
| Yacktman Fund |

5. SEGMENT REPORTING
Each Fund operates through a single operating and reporting segment to achieve its investment objective as reflected in each Fund’s prospectus. The Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”) are the Funds’ president and chief financial officer. The CODM assesses the performance and makes operating decisions for each Fund primarily based on each Fund’s changes in net assets resulting from operations. In addition to other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes each Fund’s net assets, total return, and ratios of net and gross expenses to average net assets as key metrics in reviewing the performance of each Fund. As each Fund’s operations comprise a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “Total assets” and the significant segment expenses are listed on the Statement of Operations.
6. FUND RISKS
In the normal course of business, the Funds invest in securities or other instruments and may enter into certain transactions, and such activities subject the Funds to various risks. Below is a summary of some, but not all, of those risks. Each risk described below does not necessarily apply to each Fund. Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for a description of the principal risks associated with investing in a particular Fund. The value of securities or other instruments may also be affected by various factors, including, without limitation: (i) the general economy; (ii) the overall market as well as local, regional or global political and/or social instability; or (iii) currency and price fluctuations.
Credit and Counterparty Risk: The issuer of bonds or other debt securities or a counterparty to a derivatives contract (including over-the-counter counterparties as well as brokers and clearinghouses in respect of exchange-traded and/or cleared products) may be unable or unwilling, or may be perceived as unable or unwilling, to make timely interest, principal or settlement payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength, credit rating or the
30
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| ||
|
| ||
market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness may also affect the value of a Fund’s investment in that issuer.
Currency Risk: Fluctuations in exchange rates may affect the total loss or gain on a non-U.S. dollar investment when converted back to U.S. dollars and exposure to non-U.S. currencies may subject certain Funds to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar.
Debt Securities Risk: The value of a debt security changes in response to various factors, including, for example, market related factors, such as changes in interest rates or changes in the actual or perceived ability of an issuer to meet its obligations. Investments in debt securities are subject to, among other risks, credit risk, interest rate risk, extension risk, prepayment risk and liquidity risk.
Derivatives Risk: The use of derivatives involves costs, the risk that the value of derivatives may not correlate perfectly with their underlying assets, rates or indices, liquidity risk, and the risk of mispricing or improper valuation. The use of derivatives may not succeed for various reasons, and the complexity and rapidly changing structure of derivatives markets may increase the possibility of market losses.
Emerging Markets Risk: Investments in emerging markets are subject to the general risks of foreign investments, as well as additional risks which can result in greater price volatility. Such additional risks include the risk that markets in emerging market countries are typically less developed and less liquid than markets in developed countries and such markets are subjected to increased economic, political, or regulatory uncertainties.
Focused Investment Risk: To the extent a Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in a relatively small number of securities or a particular market, industry, group of industries, country, region, group of countries, asset class or sector, it generally will be subject to greater risk than a fund that invests in a more diverse investment portfolio. In addition, the value of the Fund would be more susceptible to any single economic, market, political or regulatory occurrence affecting, for example, that particular market, industry, region or sector.
Foreign Investment Risk: Investments in foreign issuers involve additional risks (such as risks arising from less frequent trading, changes in political or social conditions, and less publicly available information about non-U.S. issuers) that differ from those associated with investments in U.S. issuers and may result in greater price volatility.
Geographic Focus Risk: To the extent a Fund focuses its investments in a particular country, group of countries or geographic region, the Fund is particularly susceptible to economic, political, regulatory or other events or conditions affecting such countries or region, and the Fund’s NAV may be more volatile than the NAV of a more geographically diversified fund and may result in losses.
Risks Associated with Investment in Japan: Investments in Japan are susceptible to the social, political, economic, regulatory and other conditions or events that may affect Japan’s economy. The Japanese economy is heavily dependent upon international trade, and, therefore, is particularly exposed to the risks of currency fluctuation, foreign trade policy and regional and global economic disruption, including the risk of increased tariffs, embargoes, and other trade limitations or factors. The Japanese economy, at times, has been impacted by government regulation, intervention, and protectionism; cross-ownership among major corporations; an aging demographic; and a declining population.
The potential for natural disasters, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, typhoons and tsunamis, could also have significant negative effects on Japan’s economy.
Risks Associated with Investment in South Korea: Investments in South Korean issuers will subject a Fund to legal, regulatory, political, currency, security, and economic risks that are specific to South Korea. In addition, economic and political developments of South Korea’s neighbors, including escalated tensions involving North Korea and any outbreak of hostilities involving North Korea, or the threat of an outbreak of such hostilities, may have a severe adverse effect on the South Korean economy. The South Korean economy is reliant on trading exports, and disruptions or decreases in trade activity could lead to declines in South Korea’s economic growth potential.
Hedging Risk: There is no guarantee that hedging strategies will be successful. For example, changes in the value of a hedging transaction may not completely offset changes in the value of the assets and liabilities being hedged. Hedging transactions involve costs and may result in losses.
High Yield Risk: Below investment grade debt securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as “junk bonds” or “high yield securities”) may be subject to greater levels of interest rate, credit, liquidity, and market risk than higher-rated securities. These securities are considered predominately speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to make principal and interest payments.
Interest Rate Risk: Fixed coupon payments (cash flows) of bonds and debt securities may become less competitive with the market in periods of rising interest rates and cause bond prices to decline. During periods of increasing interest rates, the Funds may experience high levels of volatility and shareholder redemptions, and may have to sell securities at times when they would otherwise not do so, and at unfavorable prices, which could reduce the returns of the Funds.
Large-Capitalization Stock Risk: The stocks of large capitalization companies are generally more mature and may not be able to reach the same levels of growth as the stocks of small-, mid-, or micro-capitalization companies.
Liquidity Risk: The Funds may not be able to dispose of particular investments, such as illiquid securities, readily at favorable times or prices or the Funds may have to sell them at a loss.
Management Risk: Because the Funds are actively managed investment portfolios, security selection or focus on securities in a particular style, market sector or group of companies may cause the Funds to incur losses or underperform relative to their benchmarks or other funds with a similar investment objective. There can be no guarantee that Yacktman’s investment techniques and risk analysis will produce the desired result.
Market Risk: Market prices of investments held by the Funds may fall rapidly or unpredictably due to a variety of factors, including economic or market conditions, or other factors including terrorism, war, natural disasters and the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, including epidemics or pandemics, or in response to events that affect particular industries or companies. In addition, unexpected political, regulatory, trade and diplomatic events within the United States and abroad may affect investor and consumer confidence and may adversely impact financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree.
31
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| ||
|
| ||
Micro-Capitalization Stock Risk: The stocks of micro-capitalization companies often have greater price volatility, lower trading volume, and less liquidity than the stocks of larger, more established companies.
Non-Diversified Fund Risk: Certain Funds are non-diversified and therefore a greater percentage of holdings may be focused in a small number of issuers or a single issuer, which can place the Funds at greater risk. Notwithstanding the Funds’ status as “non-diversified” investment companies under the 1940 Act, the Funds intend to qualify each year as regulated investment companies accorded favorable tax treatment under the Code, which imposes its own diversification requirements that are less restrictive than the requirements applicable to “diversified” investment companies under the 1940 Act. The Funds’ intention to qualify as regulated investment companies may limit their pursuit of their investment strategy and their investment strategy could limit their ability to so qualify.
Performance-Based Fee Risk: The prospect of a positive or negative performance adjustment may create an incentive for the Fund’s portfolio manager to take greater risks with the Fund’s portfolio. In addition, because performance adjustments are based upon past performance, a shareholder may pay a higher or lower management fee for performance that occurred prior to the shareholder’s investment in the Fund.
Political Risk: Changes in the general political and social environment of a country can have substantial effects on the value of investments exposed to that country.
Sector Risk: Issuers and companies that are in similar industry sectors may be similarly affected by particular economic or market events; to the extent the Funds have substantial holdings within a particular sector, the risks associated with that sector increase.
Small- and Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk: The stocks of small- and mid-capitalization companies often have greater price volatility, lower trading volume, and less liquidity than the stocks of larger, more established companies.
Value Stock Risk: Value stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and may be undervalued by the market for a long period of time.
7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees and Officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure to the Funds under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against a Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds had no prior claims or losses and expect the risks of loss to be remote.
8. OPTIONS
The Funds may purchase and write call options and put options on a variety of underlying securities and instruments, including, but not limited to, specific securities, securities indices, futures contracts and foreign currencies. The Funds purchase or write call and put options to generate income and hedge against losses or lock in gains of underlying portfolio security positions. A call option gives the purchaser the right to buy, and obligates the writer to sell, the underlying security or instrument at the agreed-upon price during the option period. A put option gives the purchaser the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, the underlying security or instrument at the agreed-upon price during the option period. Options purchased are recorded as an asset, while options written (sold) are recorded as liabilities. When a Fund writes options it bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the market value of the instrument underlying the written option. When an option expires, the premium (original option value) is realized as a gain if the option was written or as a loss if the option was purchased. When the exercise of an option results in a cash settlement, the difference between the premium and the settlement proceeds is recognized as realized gain or loss. When securities are acquired or delivered upon exercise of an option, the acquisition cost or sale proceeds are adjusted by the amount of the premium. When an option is closed, the difference between the premium and the cost to close the position is realized as a gain or loss. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Funds did not purchase or write call and put options.
9. MASTER NETTING AGREEMENTS
The Funds may enter into master netting agreements with their counterparties for the Securities Lending Program and Repurchase Agreements, which provide the right, in the event of default (including bankruptcy or insolvency) for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to master netting agreements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For securities lending transactions, see Note 4.
The following table is a summary of the Funds’ open Repurchase Agreements that are subject to a master netting agreement as of June 30, 2026:

At a meeting held on May 27, 2026, the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of AMG Funds (the “Trust”) considered, and at a meeting held in-person on June 3, 2026, the Board, and separately a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), approved (i) the Investment Management Agreement, as amended pursuant to letter agreements at any time prior to the date of the meeting, with AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) for each of AMG Yacktman Focused Fund, AMG Yacktman Fund, AMG Yacktman Global Fund, and AMG Yacktman Special Opportunities Fund (each, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”) and separately each of Amendment No. 1 thereto dated July 1, 2015, and Amendment No. 2 thereto dated October 1, 2016 (collectively, the “Investment Management Agreement”); and (ii) the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, as amended at any time prior to the date of the meeting (collectively, the “Subadvisory Agreements”), with Yacktman Asset Management LP, the Funds’ subadviser (the “Subadviser”). The Independent Trustees were separately represented by independent legal counsel in connection with their consideration of the approval of these agreements. In considering the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements, the Trustees reviewed a variety of materials relating to the Funds, the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, including the nature, extent and quality of services, comparative performance, fee and expense information for an appropriate peer group of similar mutual funds for each Fund (each, a “Peer Group”), performance information for the relevant benchmark index for each Fund (each, a “Fund Benchmark”), other relevant matters, including management fees, the profitability of the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, and the potential for economies of scale that may be shared with the Funds, and other information provided to them on a periodic basis throughout the year. Prior to voting, the Independent Trustees: (a) reviewed the foregoing information with their independent legal counsel; (b) received materials from their independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards applicable to their consideration of the Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements; and (c)
met with their independent legal counsel in private sessions at which no representatives of management were present.
NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings relating to the Investment Manager’s operations and personnel. Among other things, the Investment Manager provided financial information, information about its supervisory and professional staff and descriptions of its organizational and management structure. The Trustees also took into account information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Investment Manager in Board meetings relating to the performance of its duties with respect to the Funds and the Trustees’ knowledge of the Investment Manager’s management and the quality of the performance of the Investment Manager’s duties under the Investment Management Agreement and Administration Agreement. In the course of their deliberations regarding the Investment Manager, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the extent and quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the operation and management of the Funds; (b) the quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the performance by the Subadviser of its portfolio management duties; (c) the Investment Manager’s ability to supervise the Funds’ other service providers; and (d) the Investment Manager’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account that, in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser, the Investment Manager: performs periodic detailed analyses and reviews of the performance by the Subadviser of its obligations to each Fund, including without limitation, analysis and review of portfolio and other compliance matters and review of the Subadviser’s investment performance with respect to each Fund; prepares and presents periodic reports to the Board regarding the investment performance of the Subadviser and other information regarding the Subadviser, at such times and in such forms as the Board may reasonably request; reviews and considers any changes in the personnel of the Subadviser responsible for performing the Subadviser’s obligations and makes appropriate reports to the Board; reviews and considers any changes in the ownership or senior management of the Subadviser and makes appropriate reports to the Board; performs periodic
in-person, telephonic or videoconference diligence meetings, including with respect to compliance matters, with representatives of the Subadviser; assists the Board and management of the Trust in developing and reviewing information with respect to the initial approval of each Subadvisory Agreement and annual consideration of each Subadvisory Agreement thereafter; prepares recommendations with respect to the continued retention of the Subadviser or the replacement of the Subadviser, including at the request of the Board; identifies potential successors to, or replacements of, the Subadviser or potential additional subadvisers, including performing appropriate due diligence, and developing and presenting to the Board a recommendation as to any such successor, replacement, or additional subadviser, including at the request of the Board; designates and compensates from its own resources such personnel as the Investment Manager may consider necessary or appropriate to the performance of its services; and performs such other review and reporting functions as the Board shall reasonably request consistent with the Investment Management Agreement and applicable law. The Trustees noted the affiliation of the Subadviser with the Investment Manager, noting any potential conflicts of interest. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the Investment Manager with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Investment Management Agreement and the Investment Manager’s undertaking to maintain contractual expense limitations for AMG Yacktman Special Opportunities Fund and AMG Yacktman Global Fund. The Trustees also considered the Investment Manager’s risk management processes.
The Trustees also reviewed information relating to the Subadviser’s operations and personnel and the investment philosophy, strategies and techniques (its “Investment Strategy”) used in managing each Fund. Among other things, the Trustees reviewed information on portfolio management and other professional staff, information regarding the Subadviser’s organizational and management structure and the Subadviser’s brokerage policies and practices. The Trustees considered specific information provided regarding the experience of the individuals at the Subadviser with portfolio management responsibility for each Fund, including the information set forth in the Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information. In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the services rendered by the Subadviser in the past; (b) the qualifications and

|
| ||
experience of the Subadviser’s personnel; and (c) the Subadviser’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the Subadviser with respect to its ability to provide the services required under each Subadvisory Agreement. The Trustees also considered the Subadviser’s risk management processes.
PERFORMANCE
The Board considered each Fund’s net performance during relevant time periods as compared to the Fund’s Peer Group and Fund Benchmark and noted that the Board reviews on a quarterly basis detailed information about both the Fund’s performance results and portfolio composition, as well as the Subadviser’s Investment Strategy. The Board was mindful of the Investment Manager’s expertise, resources and attention to monitoring the Subadviser’s performance, investment style and risk-adjusted performance with respect to the Funds and its discussions with the management of the Funds’ subadviser during the period regarding the factors that contributed to the performance of the Funds.
With respect to AMG Yacktman Focused Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class N shares (which share class has the earliest inception date of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was above, above, below, and above, respectively, the median performance of the Peer Group and above the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s outperformance of the Fund Benchmark and the Peer Group and the fact that the Fund ranked in the top decile relative to its Peer Group for the 1-year and 10-year periods. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory.
With respect to AMG Yacktman Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class I shares (the Fund’s sole share class) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended
March 31, 2026 was above, above, below, and above, respectively, the median performance of the Peer Group and above, at, below, and above, respectively, the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s more recent outperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark and the Peer Group, and the fact that the Fund ranked in the top decile relative to its Peer Group for the 1-year period and in the top third relative to its Peer Group for the 10-year period. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory.
With respect to AMG Yacktman Global Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class I shares (which share class has the largest amount of assets of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year periods ended March 31, 2026 and for the period from the Fund’s inception on January 30, 2017 through March 31, 2026 was above the median performance of the Peer Group and above, below, below, and above, respectively, the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the MSCI World Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s outperformance relative to its Peer Group and the Fund’s more recent outperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark. The Trustees noted that Class I shares of the Fund ranked in the top percentile relative to its Peer Group for the period from the Fund’s inception through March 31, 2026 and in the top decile relative to its Peer Group for the 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year periods. The Trustees also took into account the fact that the Fund’s investment strategy and Fund Benchmark changed effective July 1, 2021, and that the performance information prior to that date reflected that of the Fund’s prior investment strategy. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its
composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory.
With respect to AMG Yacktman Special Opportunities Fund, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance for Class Z shares (which share class has the earliest inception date and the largest amount of assets of all the share classes of the Fund) for the 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods ended March 31, 2026, was below, below, below, and above, respectively, the median performance of the Peer Group and above, below, below, and below, respectively, the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the MSCI ACWI All Cap Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s more recent underperformance and longer-term outperformance relative to the Peer Group and the Fund’s more recent outperformance and longer-term underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark. The Trustees noted that Class Z shares of the Fund ranked in the top quartile relative to its Peer Group for the 10-year period and in the top percentile relative to its Peer Group for the 2021 calendar year. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY FEES; FUND EXPENSES; PROFITABILITY; AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE
In considering the reasonableness of the advisory fee payable to the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings setting forth all revenues and other benefits, both direct and indirect (including any so-called “fallout benefits” such as reputational value derived from the Investment Manager serving as Investment Manager to a Fund), received by the Investment Manager and its affiliates attributable to managing each Fund and all the mutual funds in the AMG Funds Family of Funds; the cost of providing such services; the significant risks undertaken as Investment Manager and sponsor of

the Funds, including investment, operational, enterprise, entrepreneurial, litigation, regulatory and compliance risks; and the resulting profitability to the Investment Manager and its affiliates from these relationships. The Trustees also considered the amount of the advisory fee retained by the Investment Manager after payment of the subadvisory fee with respect to each Fund. The Trustees also noted payments are made from the Subadviser to the Investment Manager, and other payments are made from the Investment Manager to the Subadviser. The Trustees also considered management’s discussion of the current asset levels of the Funds, and the impact on profitability of both the current asset levels and any future growth of assets of the Funds.
In considering the cost of services to be provided by the Investment Manager under the Investment Management Agreement and the profitability to the Investment Manager of its relationship with each Fund, the Trustees noted the undertaking by the Investment Manager to maintain contractual expense limitations for AMG Yacktman Special Opportunities Fund and AMG Yacktman Global Fund. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the advisory fee structure, and the services the Investment Manager provides in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Investment Manager is reasonable and that the Investment Manager is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the advisory fee at this time. Also with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as each Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses.
In considering the reasonableness of the subadvisory fees payable by the Investment Manager to the Subadviser, the Trustees reviewed information regarding the cost to the Subadviser of providing subadvisory services to each Fund and the resulting profitability from the relationships. The Trustees noted that, because the Subadviser is an affiliate of the Investment Manager, a portion of the Subadviser’s revenues or profits might be shared directly or indirectly with the Investment Manager. The Trustees also noted that the subadvisory fees are paid by the Investment Manager out of its advisory fee. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the subadvisory fee structure, and the services the Subadviser provides in performing its
functions under each Subadvisory Agreement and the differences in, among other things, portfolio composition, cash holdings, security holdings, strategy and diversification among the Funds. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Subadviser is reasonable and that the Subadviser is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the subadvisory fees at this time. Also, with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as a Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses.
With respect to AMG Yacktman Focused Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses of Class I shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were both rated in the High rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees also took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses and competitiveness with comparably sized funds and select competitors. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager) and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
With respect to AMG Yacktman Fund, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses as of March 31, 2026, were both rated in the Average rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
With respect to AMG Yacktman Global Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class I shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s
distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were both rated in the Below Average rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.93%. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
With respect to AMG Yacktman Special Opportunities Fund, the Trustees noted that the management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) of Class I shares (the class of shares which is the primary focus of the Fund’s distribution) of the Fund as of March 31, 2026, were both rated in the Low rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.12%. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
* * * *
After consideration of the foregoing, the Trustees also reached the following conclusions (in addition to the conclusions discussed above) regarding the Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements: (a) the Investment Manager and the Subadviser have demonstrated that they possess the capability and resources to perform the duties required of them under the Investment Management Agreement and each Subadvisory Agreement and (b) the Investment Manager and Subadviser maintain appropriate compliance programs.

Based on all of the above-mentioned factors and their related conclusions, with no single factor or conclusion being determinative and with each Trustee not necessarily attributing the same weight
to each factor, the Trustees concluded that approval of the Investment Management Agreement and each Subadvisory Agreement would be in the best interests of the applicable Fund and its shareholders.
Accordingly, on June 3, 2026, the Trustees, and separately a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve the Investment Management and the Subadvisory Agreements for each Fund.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AMG Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company, organized as a Massachusetts business trust, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Currently, the Trust consists of a number of different funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Included in this report are: AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced SMA Shares (“Municipal Enhanced”), AMG GW&K Securitized Bond SMA Shares (“Securitized Bond”) and AMG GW&K High Yield Bond SMA Shares (“High Yield Bond”), each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”. Securitized Bond commenced operations on June 12, 2025, and High Yield Bond commenced operations on June 17, 2026.
Each Fund offers a single class of shares for purchase. Shares of each Fund may be purchased only by or on behalf of separately managed account clients where GW&K Investment Management, LLC (“GW&K”), the Funds’ subadviser, has an agreement with sponsors of separately managed account programs (“Program Sponsors”), or directly with the client, to provide management or advisory services to the managed account or to the Program Sponsor for its use in managing such account.
The Funds’ financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), including accounting and reporting guidance pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies. 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements:
a. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
Fixed income securities purchased with a remaining maturity exceeding 60 days are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an authorized pricing service or, if an evaluated price is not available, by reference to other securities which are considered comparable in credit rating, interest rate, due date and other features (generally referred to as “matrix pricing”) or other similar pricing methodologies. Investments in certain mortgage-backed and stripped mortgage-backed securities, convertible securities, derivatives and other debt securities not traded on an organized securities market are valued on the basis of valuations provided by dealers or by a pricing service which uses information with respect to transactions in such securities and various relationships between such securities and yield to maturity in determining value.
Fixed income securities purchased with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, provided that the amortized cost value is approximately the same as the fair value of the security valued without the use of amortized cost. Investments in other open-end registered investment companies are valued at their end of day net asset value per share.
The Funds’ portfolio investments are generally valued based on independent market quotations or prices or, if none, “evaluative” or other market based valuations provided by third party pricing services. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) designated AMG Funds LLC
(the “Investment Manager”) as the Funds’ Valuation Designee to perform the Funds’ fair value determinations. Such determinations are subject to Board oversight and certain reporting and other requirements intended to ensure that the Board receives the information it needs to oversee the Investment Manager’s fair value determinations.
Under certain circumstances, the value of certain Fund portfolio investments may be based on an evaluation of fair value, pursuant to procedures established by the Investment Manager and under the general supervision of the Board. The Funds may use the fair value of a portfolio investment to calculate their net asset value (“NAV”) in the event that the market quotation, price or market based valuation for the portfolio investment is not readily available or otherwise not determinable pursuant to the Funds’ valuation procedures, if the Investment Manager believes the quotation, price or market based valuation to be unreliable, or in certain other circumstances. When determining the fair value of an investment, the Investment Manager seeks to determine the price that the Funds might reasonably expect to receive from current sale of that portfolio investment in an arms-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon consideration of all available facts and information, including, but not limited to (i) attributes specific to the investment; (ii) fundamental and analytical data relating to the investment; and (iii) the value of other comparable securities or relevant financial instruments, including derivative securities, traded on other markets or among dealers.
The values assigned to fair value portfolio investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized in the future, since such amounts depend on future developments inherent in long-term investments. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and the differences could be material. The Board will be presented with quarterly reports, as of the most recent quarter end, summarizing all fair value activity, material fair value matters that occurred during the quarter, and all outstanding securities fair valued by the Funds. Additionally, the Board will be presented with an annual report that assesses the adequacy and effectiveness of the Investment Manager’s process for determining the fair value of the Funds’ investments.
U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. 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 Funds.
Unobservable inputs reflect the Funds’ 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 – inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical investments (e.g., equity securities, open-end investment companies)
Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted
22
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

|

prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs) (e.g., debt securities, government securities, fair valued securities with observable inputs)
Level 3 – inputs are significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments) (e.g., fair valued securities with unobservable inputs)
Changes in inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may result in a transfer in or out of levels within the fair value hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may not necessarily be an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments.
b. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS
Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
c. INVESTMENT INCOME AND EXPENSES
Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is accrued as earned. Interest income on foreign securities is recorded gross of any withholding tax. Paydown gains (losses) on mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, if any, are recorded as components of interest income on the Statement of Operations. Other income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Expenses that cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are apportioned among the funds in the Trust and other trusts or funds within the AMG Funds Family of Funds (collectively, the “AMG Funds Family”) based upon their relative average net assets or number of shareholders.
d. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Fund distributions resulting from net investment income, if any, will normally be declared and paid monthly. Fund distributions resulting from net realized capital gains, if any, will normally be declared and paid at least annually in December. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax law, which may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains for financial statement purposes (U.S. GAAP). Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Permanent book and tax basis differences, if any, relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense and gain or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Permanent differences for Securitized Bond are primarily due to tax equalization utilized. Temporary differences for Securitized Bond are due to wash sale loss deferrals. There were no permanent or temporary differences for Municipal Enhanced or High Yield Bond.
At June 30, 2026, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes approximates the aggregate cost for book purposes. The approximate cost of investments and
the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
| Fund | Cost | Appreciation | Depreciation | Net Appreciation/ (Depreciation) |
||||||||||
| Municipal Enhanced |
$255,874,917 | $3,422,925 | $(1,845,972) | $1,576,953 | ||||||||||
| Securitized Bond |
122,374,505 | 734,687 | (462,113) | 272,574 | ||||||||||
| High Yield Bond |
28,847,897 | 17,877 | (85,244) | (67,367) | ||||||||||
e. FEDERAL TAXES
Municipal Enhanced qualifies, and Securitized Bond Fund and High Yield Bond, each intends to qualify as an investment company and each fund intends to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and to distribute substantially all of their taxable income and gains to their shareholders and to meet certain diversification and income requirements with respect to investment companies. The Investment Manager has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years, and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Additionally, the Investment Manager is not aware of any tax position for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefit/detriment will change materially in the next twelve months.
Furthermore, based on each Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and transactions for the foreign jurisdictions in which it invests, each Fund will provide for foreign taxes, and where appropriate, deferred foreign taxes.
f. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYOVERS AND DEFERRALS
As of December 31, 2025, Municipal Enhanced had capital loss carryovers for federal income tax purposes as shown in the following chart. These amounts may be used to offset future realized capital gains indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term.
| Fund | Short-Term | Long-Term | Total | |||||||||
| Municipal Enhanced | — | $301,673 | $301,673 | |||||||||
As High Yield Bond commenced operations on June 17, 2026, it had no capital loss carryovers for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2025, Securitized Bond had no capital loss carryovers for federal income tax purposes. Should the Funds incur net capital losses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026, such amounts may be used to offset future realized capital gains indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term.
g. CAPITAL STOCK
The Trust’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust authorizes for each Fund the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, without par value. Each Fund records sales and repurchases of its capital stock on the trade date.

h. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Funds may enter into third-party and bilateral repurchase agreements for temporary cash management purposes and, with respect to Securitized Bond and High Yield Bond, for reinvestment of cash collateral on securities lending transactions under the securities lending program offered by The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”) (the “Securities Lending Program”) (collectively, “Repurchase Agreements”). The value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest, must equal or exceed the value of the Repurchase Agreements during the term of the agreement. For joint repurchase agreements, Securitized Bond and High Yield Bond participate on a pro rata basis with other clients of BNYM in their share of the underlying collateral under such joint repurchase agreements and in their share of proceeds from any repurchase or other disposition of the underlying collateral. The underlying collateral for all Repurchase Agreements is held by the Funds’ custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited. Pursuant to the Securities Lending Program, Securitized Bond and High Yield Bond are indemnified for such losses by BNYM on joint repurchase agreements.
At June 30, 2026, the market value of Repurchase Agreements outstanding for Municipal Enhanced, Securitized Bond and High Yield Bond were $8,686,000, $1,463,000 and $0, respectively.
i. DELAYED DELIVERY TRANSACTIONS AND WHEN-ISSUED SECURITIES
The Funds may enter into securities transactions on a delayed delivery or when issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. During the time a delayed delivery sell is outstanding, the contract is marked to market daily and equivalent deliverable securities are held for the transaction. The value of the securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in each Fund’s Schedule of Portfolio Investments. With respect to purchase commitments, the Funds identify securities as segregated in their records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Delayed delivery or when-issued securities that have been purchased from and sold to different brokers are reflected as an investment in securities and a forward sale commitment in the Funds’ Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For financial reporting purposes, a Fund does not offset the receivable and payable for delayed delivery investments purchased and sold. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, Securitized Bond entered into securities transactions on a delayed delivery or when issued basis. At June 30, 2026, the market value of delayed delivery securities held in the Fund amounted to $518,454.
2. AGREEMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Trust has entered into an investment advisory agreement under which the Investment Manager, a subsidiary and the U.S. wealth platform of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“AMG”), serves as investment manager to the Funds and is responsible for the Funds’ overall administration and operations. The Investment Manager selects and recommends, subject to the approval of the Board and, in certain circumstances, shareholders, the Funds’ subadviser and monitors the subadviser’s investment performance, security holdings and investment strategies. Each Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by GW&K, who serves as subadviser pursuant to a subadvisory agreement with the Investment Manager. AMG indirectly owns a majority interest in GW&K.
The Funds do not pay advisory fees to the Investment Manager or GW&K. Shareholders should be aware, however, that each Fund is an integral part of separately managed account programs, and the Investment Manager or GW&K will be compensated directly or indirectly by Program Sponsors or program participants for managed account advisory services.
The Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through at least May 1, 2027 for Municipal Enhanced and Securitized Bond, and May 1, 2028 for High Yield Bond, to waive fees and/or pay or reimburse the Funds’ expenses in order to limit total annual operating expenses (exclusive of taxes, interest (including interest incurred in connection with bank and custody overdrafts and in connection with securities sold short), brokerage commissions and other transaction costs, dividends payable with respect to securities sold short, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) of each Fund to the annual rate of 0.00% of the average daily net assets attributable to such Fund. The contractual expense limitation may only be terminated in the event the Investment Manager or a successor ceases to be the investment manager of a Fund or a successor fund, by mutual agreement between the Investment Manager and the Board or in the event of a Fund’s liquidation unless the Fund is reorganized or is a party to a merger in which the surviving entity is successor to the accounting and performance information of the Fund.
For the period ended June 30, 2026, the Investment Manager reimbursed Municipal Enhanced, Securitized Bond and High Yield Bond $77,653, $79,891, and $6,245, respectively.
The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, has entered into an amended and restated Administration Agreement under which the Investment Manager serves as the Funds’ administrator (the “Administrator”) and is responsible for certain aspects of managing the Funds’ operations, including administration and shareholder services to each Fund. The Funds do not pay administrative fees to the Investment Manager for these services.
The Funds are distributed by AMG Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Manager. The Distributor serves as the distributor and underwriter for each Fund and is a registered broker-dealer and member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”). Shares of each Fund may be purchased only by or on behalf of separately managed account clients where GW&K has an agreement with the Program Sponsor (typically, a registered investment adviser or broker-dealer), or directly with the client, to
provide management or advisory services to the managed account. Generally, the Distributor bears all or a portion of the expenses of providing services pursuant to the distribution agreement, including the payment of the expenses relating to the distribution of prospectuses for sales purposes and any advertising or sales literature.
The Board provides supervision of the affairs of the Trust and other trusts within the AMG Funds Family. The Trustees of the Trust who are not affiliated with the Investment Manager receive an annual retainer and per meeting fees for regular, special and telephonic meetings, and they are reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incurred while carrying out their duties as Board members. The Chairman of the Board and the Audit Committee Chair receive additional annual retainers. Certain Trustees and Officers of the Funds are Officers and/or Directors of the Investment Manager, AMG and/or the Distributor.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) granted an exemptive order that permits certain eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family to lend and borrow money for certain temporary purposes directly to and from other eligible funds in the AMG Funds Family. Participation in this interfund lending program is voluntary for both the borrowing and lending funds, and an interfund loan is only made if it benefits each participating fund. The Administrator manages the program according to procedures approved by the Board, and the Board monitors the operation of the program. An interfund loan must comply with certain conditions set out in the exemptive order, which are designed to assure fairness and protect all participating funds. The interest earned and interest paid on interfund loans are included on the Statement of Operations as interest income and interest expense, respectively. At June 30, 2026, the Funds had no interfund loans outstanding. Securitized Bond and High Yield Bond did not lend and the Funds did not borrow during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
The following Fund utilized the interfund lending program during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as follows:

4. PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED
Securitized Bond and High Yield Bond participate in the Securities Lending Program providing for the lending of securities to qualified borrowers. Securities lending income includes earnings of such temporary cash investments, plus or minus any rebate to a borrower. These earnings (after any rebate) are then divided between BNYM, as a fee for its services under the Securities Lending Program, and the Funds, according to agreed-upon rates. Collateral on all securities loaned is accepted in cash, U.S. Treasury Obligations or U.S. Government Agency Obligations. Collateral is maintained at a minimum level of 102% (105% in the case of certain foreign securities) of the market value, plus interest, if applicable, of investments on loan. It is the Funds’ policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Funds if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. Under the terms of the Securities Lending Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by BNYM. Cash collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM, who is authorized to exclusively enter into joint repurchase agreements for that cash collateral. Securities collateral is held in separate omnibus accounts managed by BNYM and cannot be sold or pledged. BNYM bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the cash collateral available for return to the borrower due to any loss on the collateral invested. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities as soon as practical, which is normally within three business days.
The Funds did not have any securities on loan at June 30, 2026.
5. SEGMENT REPORTING
Each Fund operates through a single operating and reporting segment to achieve its investment objective as reflected in each Fund’s prospectus. The Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”) are the Funds’ president and chief financial officer. The CODM assesses the performance and makes operating decisions for each Fund primarily based on each Fund’s changes in net assets resulting from operations. In addition to other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes each Fund’s net assets, total return, and ratios of net and gross expenses to average net assets as key metrics in reviewing the performance of each Fund. As each Fund’s operations comprise a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “Total assets” and the significant segment expenses are listed on the Statement of Operations.
6. FUND RISKS
In the normal course of business, the Funds invest in securities or other instruments and may enter into certain transactions, and such activities subject the Funds to various risks. Below is a summary of some, but not all, of those risks. Each risk described below does not necessarily apply to each Fund. Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for a description of the principal risks associated with investing in a particular Fund. The value of securities or other instruments may
also be affected by various factors, including, without limitation: (i) the general economy; (ii) the overall market as well as local, regional or global political and/or social instability; or (iii) price fluctuations.
Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk: Investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities involve risk of severe credit downgrades, loss due to prepayments that occur earlier or later than expected, illiquidity and default.
Bank Loan Risk: Investments in bank loans are subject to credit risk, liquidity risk and prepayment risk. The Fund may also be subject to the credit risk of other financial institutions and the risks associated with insufficient collateral securing a bank loan, limited available public information about a bank loan, delayed settlement, and less protection for holders of bank loans as compared to holders of registered securities.
Changing Distribution Level Risk: The Fund will normally receive income which may include interest, dividends and/or capital gains, depending upon its investments. The distribution amount paid by the Fund will vary and generally depends on the amount of income the Fund earns (less expenses) on its portfolio holdings, and capital gains or losses it recognizes. A decline in the Fund’s income or net capital gains arising from its investments may reduce its distribution level.
Collateralized Loan Obligations (“CLO”) and Other Collateralized Obligations Risk: The risks of investing in a CLO generally can be summarized as a combination of economic risks of the underlying loans combined with the risks associated with the CLO structure governing the priority of payments, and include interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, prepayment risk, and the risk of default of the underlying asset, among others.
Credit and Counterparty Risk: The issuer of bonds or other debt securities or a counterparty to a derivatives contract (including over-the-counter counterparties as well as brokers and clearinghouses in respect of exchange-traded and/or cleared products) may be unable or unwilling, or may be perceived as unable or unwilling, to make timely interest, principal or settlement payments or otherwise honor its obligations. Changes in an issuer’s financial strength, credit rating or the market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness may also affect the value of the Funds’ investment in that issuer.
Debt Securities Risk: The value of a debt security changes in response to various factors, including, for example, market-related factors, such as changes in interest rates or changes in the actual or perceived ability of an issuer to meet its obligations. Investments in debt securities are subject to, among other risks, credit risk, interest rate risk, extension risk, prepayment risk and liquidity risk.
Derivatives Risk: The use of derivatives involves costs, the risk that the value of derivatives may not correlate perfectly with their underlying assets, rates or indices, liquidity risk, and the risk of mispricing or improper valuation. The use of derivatives may not succeed for various reasons, and the complexity and rapidly changing structure of derivatives markets may increase the possibility of market losses.
Exchange-Traded Fund Risk: Because ETFs incur their own costs, investing in them could result in a higher cost to the investor.
Extension Risk: During periods of rising interest rates, a debtor may pay back a bond or other fixed income security slower than expected or required, and the value of such security may fall.
26
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| ||
|
| ||
Floating Rate Instrument Risk: Changes in interest rates may affect the yield on the Fund’s investments in floating rate investments. Floating rate investments may decline in value if their interest rates do not rise as much, or as quickly, as interest rates in general. Conversely, a decline in interest rates may result in a reduction in income received from floating rate investments held by the Fund and may adversely affect the value of the Fund’s shares.
Foreign Investment Risk: Investments in foreign issuers involve additional risks (such as risks arising from less frequent trading, changes in political or social conditions, and less publicly available information about non-U.S. issuers) that differ from those associated with investments in U.S. issuers and may result in greater price volatility.
High Yield Risk: Below investment grade debt securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as “junk bonds” or “high yield securities”) may be subject to greater levels of interest rate, credit, liquidity, and market risk than higher-rated securities. These securities are considered predominately speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to make principal and interest payments.
Inflation/Deflation Risk: Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be worth less in the future. Inflation rates may change frequently and drastically as a result of various factors and the Funds’ investments may not keep pace with inflation, which may result in losses to Fund investors or adversely affect the real value of shareholders’ investments in the Funds. As inflation rates increase, fixed income securities markets may experience heightened levels of interest rate volatility and liquidity risk. Deflation risk is the risk that the prices throughout the economy decline over time – the opposite of inflation. Deflation may have an adverse effect on the creditworthiness of issuers and may make issuer default more likely, which may result in a decline in the value of the Funds’ portfolio.
Interest Rate Risk: Fixed coupon payments (cash flows) of bonds and debt securities may become less competitive with the market in periods of rising interest rates and cause bond prices to decline. During periods of increasing interest rates, the Funds may experience high levels of volatility and shareholder redemptions, and may have to sell securities at times when it would otherwise not do so, and at unfavorable prices, which could reduce the returns of the Funds.
Leverage Risk: Borrowing and some derivative investments such as futures, forward commitment transactions and swaps may increase volatility and magnify smaller adverse market movements into relatively larger losses.
Liquidity Risk: The Funds may not be able to dispose of particular investments, such as illiquid securities, readily at favorable times or prices or the Funds may have to sell them at a loss.
Management Risk: Because the Fund is an actively managed investment portfolio, security selection or focus on securities in a particular style, market sector or group of companies may cause the Funds to incur losses or underperform relative to its benchmarks or other funds with a similar investment objective. There can be no guarantee that GW&K’s investment techniques and risk analysis will produce the desired result.
Market Risk: Market prices of investments held by the Funds may fall rapidly or unpredictably due to a variety of factors, including economic or market conditions, or other factors including terrorism, war, natural disasters and the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, including epidemics or pandemics, or in response to events that affect particular industries or companies. In addition,
unexpected political, regulatory, trade and diplomatic events within the United States and abroad may affect investor and consumer confidence and may adversely impact financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree.
Municipal Market Risk: Factors unique to the municipal bond market may negatively affect the value of the Funds’ investment in municipal bonds. These factors include political or legislative changes, and uncertainties related to the tax status of the securities and the rights of investors in the securities. The Funds may invest in a group of municipal obligations that are related in such a way that an economic, business, or political development affecting one would also affect the others.
New Fund Risk: The Fund is a new fund, which may result in additional risk. There can be no assurance that the Fund will grow to an economically viable size, in which case the Fund may cease operations. In such an event, investors may be required to liquidate or transfer their investments at an inopportune time. In addition, until the Fund achieves sufficient scale, a Fund shareholder may experience proportionally higher Fund expenses than would be experienced by shareholders of a fund with a larger asset base.
Preferred Securities Risk: A preferred security may decline in price, or fail to pay dividends when expected, because the issuer experiences a decline in its financial status. Preferred securities have a lower payment priority than the issuer’s bonds or other debt securities. Therefore, they are subject to greater credit risk than those debt securities. Preferred securities also may be significantly less liquid than many other securities.
Prepayment Risk: A debtor may exercise its right to pay back a bond or other debt security earlier than expected or required during periods of decreasing interest rates.
Reinvestment Risk: The Fund may have difficulty reinvesting payments from debtors and may receive lower rates than from its original investments.
Restricted Securities Risk: Investing in restricted securities (including, without limitation, Rule 144A securities) may reduce the liquidity of the Fund’s investments in the event that an adequate trading market does not exist for these securities. Limitations on the resale of restricted securities could adversely affect the marketability of the securities, and the Fund may be unable to sell the security at the desired time or price, if at all. The purchase price and subsequent valuation of restricted securities normally reflect a discount, which may be significant, from the market price of comparable unrestricted securities for which a liquid trading market exists.
Sector Risk: Issuers and companies that are in similar industry sectors may be similarly affected by particular economic or market events; to the extent the Funds have substantial holdings within a particular sector, the risks associated with that sector increase. A portion of the Funds’ assets may be invested in fixed income securities that would tend to respond similarly to particular economic or political developments or the interest on which is based on revenues or otherwise related to similar types of projects. An example would be securities of issuers whose revenues are paid from similar types of projects, such as health care (including hospitals) or transportation.
U.S. Government Securities Risk: Obligations issued by some U.S. Government agencies, authorities, instrumentalities, or sponsored enterprises such as Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, while obligations issued by others, such as
27
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| ||
|
| ||
Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), and Federal Home Loan Banks (FHLBs), are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government and are backed solely by the entity’s own resources or by the ability of the entity to borrow from the U.S. Treasury. If one of these agencies defaults on a loan, there is no guarantee that the U.S. Government will provide financial support.
7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees and Officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure to the Funds under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against a Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds had no prior claims or losses and expect the risks of loss to be remote.
8. MASTER NETTING AGREEMENTS
The Funds may enter into master netting agreements with their counterparties for the Securities Lending Program and Repurchase Agreements, which provide the right, in the event of default (including bankruptcy or insolvency) for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to master netting agreements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For securities lending transactions, see Note 4.
The following table is a summary of the Funds’ open Repurchase Agreements that are subject to a master netting agreement as of June 30, 2026:

ITEM 11. STATEMENT REGARDING BASIS FOR APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT
| ||
|
| ||
| AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced SMA Shares and AMG GW&K Securitized Bond SMA Shares: Approval of Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements on June 3, 2026
At a meeting held on May 27, 2026, the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of AMG Funds (the “Trust”), considered, and at a meeting held in-person on June 3, 2026, the Board, and separately a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), approved (i) the Investment Management Agreement, as amended pursuant to letter agreements at any time prior to the date of the meeting, with AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) for each of AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced SMA Shares and AMG GW&K Securitized Bond SMA Shares (each, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”) (the “Investment Management Agreement”); and (ii) the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, as amended at any time prior to the date of the meeting (collectively, the “Subadvisory Agreements”), with GW&K Investment Management, LLC, the Funds’ subadviser (the “Subadviser”). The Independent Trustees were separately represented by independent legal counsel in connection with their consideration of the approval of these agreements. In considering the Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements, the Trustees reviewed a variety of materials relating to each Fund, the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, including the nature, extent and quality of services, comparative performance, fee and expense information for an appropriate peer group of similar mutual funds for each Fund (each, a “Peer Group”), performance information for the relevant benchmark index for each Fund (each, a “Fund Benchmark”), other relevant matters, including management fees, the profitability of the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, and the potential for economies of scale that may be shared with the Funds, and other information provided to them on a periodic basis throughout the year. Prior to voting, the Independent Trustees: (a) reviewed the foregoing information with their independent legal counsel; (b) received materials from their independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards applicable to their consideration of the Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements; and (c) met with their independent legal counsel in private sessions at which no representatives of management were present. |
NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager, the Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings relating to the Investment Manager’s operations and personnel. Among other things, the Investment Manager provided financial information, information about its supervisory and professional staff and descriptions of its organizational and management structure. The Trustees also took into account information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Investment Manager in Board meetings relating to the performance of its duties with respect to the Funds and the Trustees’ knowledge of the Investment Manager’s management and the quality of the performance of the Investment Manager’s duties under the Investment Management Agreement and the Administration Agreement. In the course of their deliberations regarding the Investment Manager, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the extent and quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the operation and management of the Funds; (b) the quality of the Investment Manager’s oversight of the performance by the Subadviser of its portfolio management duties; (c) the Investment Manager’s ability to supervise the Funds’ other service providers; and (d) the Investment Manager’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account that, in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser, the Investment Manager: performs periodic detailed analyses and reviews of the performance by the Subadviser of its obligations to each Fund, including without limitation, analysis and review of portfolio and other compliance matters and review of the Subadviser’s investment performance with respect to each Fund; prepares and presents periodic reports to the Board regarding the investment performance of the Subadviser and other information regarding the Subadviser, at such times and in such forms as the Board may reasonably request; reviews and considers any changes in the personnel of the Subadviser responsible for performing the Subadviser’s obligations and makes appropriate reports to the Board; reviews and considers any changes in the ownership or senior management of the Subadviser and makes appropriate reports to the Board; performs periodic in-person, telephonic or videoconference diligence meetings, including with respect to compliance matters, with representatives of the Subadviser; |
assists the Board and management of the Trust in developing and reviewing information with respect to the initial approval of the Subadvisory Agreements and annual consideration of the Subadvisory Agreements thereafter; prepares recommendations with respect to the continued retention of the Subadviser or the replacement of the Subadviser, including at the request of the Board; identifies potential successors to, or replacements of, the Subadviser or potential additional subadvisers, including performing appropriate due diligence, and developing and presenting to the Board a recommendation as to any such successor, replacement, or additional subadviser, including at the request of the Board; designates and compensates from its own resources such personnel as the Investment Manager may consider necessary or appropriate to the performance of its services; and performs such other review and reporting functions as the Board shall reasonably request consistent with the Investment Management Agreement and applicable law. The Trustees noted the affiliation of the Subadviser with the Investment Manager, noting any potential conflicts of interest. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the Investment Manager with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Investment Management Agreement and the Investment Manager’s undertaking to maintain contractual expense limitations for the Funds. The Trustees also considered the Investment Manager’s risk management processes.
The Trustees also reviewed information relating to the Subadviser’s operations and personnel and the investment philosophy, strategies and techniques (its “Investment Strategy”) used in managing each Fund. Among other things, the Trustees reviewed information on portfolio management and other professional staff, information regarding the Subadviser’s organizational and management structure and the Subadviser’s brokerage policies and practices. The Trustees considered specific information provided regarding the experience of the individuals at the Subadviser with portfolio management responsibility for each Fund, including the information set forth in each Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information. In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the services rendered by the Subadviser in the past; (b) the qualifications and experience of the Subadviser’s personnel; and (c) the Subadviser’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the |

|
| ||
| Subadviser with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Subadvisory Agreements. The Trustees also considered the Subadviser’s risk management processes.
PERFORMANCE
The Board considered each Fund’s net performance during relevant time periods as compared to the Fund’s Peer Group and Fund Benchmark and noted that the Board reviews on a quarterly basis detailed information about both a Fund’s performance results and portfolio composition, as well as the Subadviser’s Investment Strategy. The Board was mindful of the Investment Manager’s expertise, resources and attention to monitoring the Subadviser’s performance, investment style and risk-adjusted performance with respect to the Funds and its discussions with the management of the Funds’ subadviser during the period regarding the factors that contributed to the performance of the Funds.
With respect to AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced SMA Shares, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the performance of the Fund’s sole share class for the 1-year and 3-year periods ended March 31, 2026 and the period from the Fund’s inception on February 28, 2023 through March 31, 2026, was above, below, and above, respectively, the median performance of the Peer Group and below the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Municipal Bond BAA Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark and more recent outperformance relative to the Peer Group and the fact that the Fund ranked in the top half relative to the Peer Group for the 1-year period and the period from the Fund’s inception through March 31, 2026. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
With respect to AMG GW&K Securitized Bond SMA Shares, among other information relating to the Fund’s performance, the Trustees noted that the performance of the Fund’s sole share class for the period from the Fund’s inception on June 12, 2025 |
through March 31, 2026, was above the median performance of the Peer Group and below the performance of the Fund Benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Securitized Index. The Trustees took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance, including the reasons for the Fund’s underperformance relative to the Fund Benchmark and outperformance relative to the Peer Group and the fact that the Fund ranked in the top decile relative to the Peer Group for the period from the Fund’s inception through March 31, 2026. The Trustees also considered that the Fund recently commenced operations and has a relatively limited performance history. It was noted that while the Trustees found the Peer Group comparisons generally useful, they recognized their limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the Peer Group and its composition over time. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s overall performance has been satisfactory in light of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and policies, as well as overall market conditions.
ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY FEES; FUND EXPENSES; PROFITABILITY; AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE
The Trustees noted that each Fund pays no advisory fee to the Investment Manager for the services provided under the Investment Management Agreement and that the Investment Manager pays no subadvisory fee to the Subadviser in exchange for the services provided under each Subadvisory Agreement. The Trustees noted that each Fund is an integral part of separately managed account programs, and the Investment Manager or the Subadviser is compensated directly or indirectly by program sponsors or program participants. The Trustees noted that the Investment Manager indirectly benefits from compensation received by the Subadviser because the Investment Manager and the Subadviser are affiliated. The Trustees reviewed information provided by the Investment Manager at the May 27, 2026 and June 3, 2026 meetings and prior meetings setting forth all revenues and other benefits, both direct and indirect (including any so-called “fallout benefits” such as reputational value derived from the Investment Manager serving as Investment Manager to a Fund), received by the Investment Manager and its affiliates attributable to managing each Fund and all the mutual funds in the AMG Funds Family of Funds; the cost of providing such services; the significant risks undertaken as Investment Manager and sponsor of the Funds, including investment, operational, |
enterprise, entrepreneurial, litigation, regulatory and compliance risks; and the resulting profitability to the Investment Manager and its affiliates from these relationships. The Trustees also noted payments made from the Subadviser to the Investment Manager. The Trustees also considered management’s discussion of the current asset level of each Fund, and the impact on profitability of both the current asset level and any future growth of assets of the Funds.
In considering the cost of services to be provided by the Investment Manager under the Investment Management Agreement and the profitability to the Investment Manager of its relationship with each Fund, the Trustees noted the undertaking by the Investment Manager to maintain contractual expense limitations for the Funds. The Board also took into account the services the Investment Manager provides in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising the Subadviser. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Investment Manager is reasonable and that the Investment Manager is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the advisory fee at this time.
The Trustees reviewed information regarding the cost to the Subadviser of providing subadvisory services to each Fund and the resulting profitability from the relationship. The Trustees noted that, because the Subadviser is an affiliate of the Investment Manager, a portion of the Subadviser’s revenues or profits might be shared directly or indirectly with the Investment Manager. The Trustees also noted that the Subadviser would receive no subadvisory fee from the Investment Manager with respect to each Fund, but that it would be separately compensated by program sponsors and program participants. The Trustees also took into account management’s discussion of the services the Subadviser provides in performing its functions under the Subadvisory Agreements. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Subadviser is reasonable and that the Subadviser is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale that would warrant adjustments to the subadvisory fees at this time. Also, with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as a Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses.
With respect to AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced SMA Shares, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s management fees (which include both the advisory |

|

|
| ||
| and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) as of March 31, 2026, were both rated in the Low rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.00%. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
With respect to AMG GW&K Securitized Bond SMA Shares, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s management fees (which include both the advisory and administration fees) and total expenses (net of applicable expense waivers/reimbursements) as of March 31, 2026, were both rated in the Low rating level of the Fund’s Peer Group. The Trustees noted that the rating level corresponded to the Fund’s quintile ranking in its Peer Group. The Trustees took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through May 1, 2027, to limit the Fund’s net annual operating expenses (subject to certain excluded expenses) to 0.00%. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager and the Subadviser (which is an affiliate of the Investment Manager), the foregoing expense limitation and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and the Subadviser, the Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
* * * *
After consideration of the foregoing, the Trustees also reached the following conclusions (in addition to the conclusions discussed above) regarding the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements: (a) the Investment Manager and the Subadviser have demonstrated that they possess the capability and resources to perform the duties required of them under the Investment Management Agreement and each Subadvisory Agreement and (b) the Investment Manager and Subadviser maintain appropriate compliance programs. |
Based on all of the above-mentioned factors and their related conclusions, with no single factor or conclusion being determinative and with each Trustee not necessarily attributing the same weight to each factor, the Trustees concluded that approval of the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements would be in the best interests of the applicable Fund and its shareholders. Accordingly, on June 3, 2026, the Trustees, and separately a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements for each Fund.
Approval of Amendment to Investment Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement with GW&K Investment Management, LLC with Respect to AMG GW&K High Yield Bond SMA Shares
At an in-person meeting held on March 18, 2026, the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of AMG Funds (the “Trust”), and separately a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”) within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), unanimously voted to approve an amendment to the Investment Management Agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”) between AMG Funds LLC (the “Investment Manager”) and the Trust relating to AMG GW&K High Yield Bond SMA Shares, a new series of the Trust (the “New Fund”), and a Subadvisory Agreement between the Investment Manager and GW&K Investment Management, LLC (“GW&K”) relating to the New Fund (the “Subadvisory Agreement” and, together with the Investment Management Agreement, the “New Fund Agreements”). The Independent Trustees were separately represented by independent legal counsel in their consideration of the New Fund Agreements and met with their independent legal counsel in a private session at which no representatives of management were present to consider the New Fund and the New Fund Agreements.
In considering the New Fund Agreements, the Trustees reviewed a variety of materials relating to the New Fund, the Investment Manager and GW&K provided in connection with the meeting of the Board held on March 18, 2026, including information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by the Investment Manager and GW&K under their respective agreements. Because the New Fund is a newly created series of the Trust and has not yet begun operations, no comparative performance information for the New Fund was |
provided. The Trustees, however, considered the performance of other funds in the AMG Funds Family of Funds (the “AMG Fund Complex”) subadvised by GW&K for various time periods, including other taxable bond funds such as AMG GW&K Core Bond ESG Fund, AMG GW&K ESG Bond Fund, and AMG GW&K Securitized Bond SMA Shares. Prior to voting, the Independent Trustees: (a) reviewed the foregoing information with their independent legal counsel and (b) discussed with legal counsel the legal standards applicable to their consideration of the New Fund Agreements.
NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Investment Manager under the Investment Management Agreement, the Trustees took into account information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Investment Manager in Board meetings relating to the Investment Manager’s financial information, operations and personnel, the performance of its duties with respect to other funds in the AMG Fund Complex, which, as of March 18, 2026, consisted of 39 funds, the quality of the performance of the Investment Manager’s duties under the Investment Management Agreement and the Administration Agreement between the Investment Manager and the Trust and the Trustees’ knowledge of the Investment Manager’s management team.
In the course of their deliberations regarding the Investment Manager, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the quality of the monitoring services intended to be performed by the Investment Manager in overseeing the portfolio management responsibilities of GW&K; (b) the Investment Manager’s ability to supervise the New Fund’s other service providers; and (c) the Investment Manager’s compliance program. The Trustees also took into account that, in performing its functions under the Investment Management Agreement and supervising GW&K, the Investment Manager will: perform periodic detailed analyses and reviews of the performance by GW&K of its obligations to the New Fund, including without limitation analysis and review of portfolio and other compliance matters and review of GW&K’s investment performance with respect to the New Fund; prepare and present periodic reports to the Trustees regarding the investment performance of GW&K and other information regarding GW&K, at such times and in such forms as the Trustees may reasonably request; review and consider any changes in the personnel of GW&K responsible for performing GW&K’s obligations and make appropriate reports to the Trustees; review and consider any changes in the |

|
| ||
| ownership or senior management of GW&K and make appropriate reports to the Trustees; perform periodic in-person, telephonic or videoconference diligence meetings, including with respect to compliance matters, with representatives of GW&K; assist the Trustees and management of the Trust in developing and reviewing information with respect to the initial approval of the Subadvisory Agreement and annual consideration of the Subadvisory Agreement thereafter; prepare recommendations with respect to the continued retention of GW&K or the replacement of GW&K, including at the request of the Board; identify potential successors to, or replacements of, GW&K or potential additional subadvisers, including performing appropriate due diligence, and developing and presenting to the Trustees a recommendation as to any such successor, replacement, or additional subadviser, including at the request of the Board; designate and compensate from its own resources such personnel as the Investment Manager may consider necessary or appropriate to the performance of its services; and perform such other review and reporting functions as the Trustees shall reasonably request consistent with the Investment Management Agreement and applicable law. The Trustees noted the affiliation of GW&K with the Investment Manager, noting any potential conflicts of interest. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of the Investment Manager with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Investment Management Agreement and noted that, as of December 31, 2025, the Investment Manager had approximately $18.2 billion in mutual fund assets under management. The Trustees also considered the Investment Manager’s risk management processes.
In the course of their deliberations regarding the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by GW&K under the Subadvisory Agreement, the Trustees evaluated, among other things: (a) the expected services to be rendered by GW&K to the New Fund; (b) the qualifications and experience of GW&K personnel; and (c) the GW&K compliance program. The Trustees also took into account the financial condition of GW&K with respect to its ability to provide the services required under the Subadvisory Agreement and noted that, as of December 31, 2025, GW&K managed approximately $52.8 billion in assets. The Trustees also considered GW&K’s risk management processes. The Trustees took into account their knowledge of GW&K and noted that GW&K subadvised 13 other funds in the AMG Fund Complex, and that the Trustees had overseen funds subadvised by GW&K since 2008. |
The Trustees also considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Investment Manager and GW&K, as applicable, to funds in the AMG Fund Complex in connection with the Trustees’ annual consideration of the existing funds’ contractual arrangements. The Trustees considered the investment philosophy, strategies and techniques that are intended to be used in managing the New Fund. Among other things, the Trustees reviewed information about portfolio management and other professional staff and information regarding GW&K’s organizational and management structure. The Trustees considered specific information provided regarding the experience of the individuals at GW&K that are expected to have portfolio management responsibility for the New Fund, including the information set forth in the New Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Trustees noted that the New Fund’s portfolio managers have extensive industry experience in taxable bond and high yield bond products. The Trustees also took into account a presentation made at the March 18, 2026 Board meeting by representatives from GW&K regarding the New Fund, its proposed investment strategy and GW&K’s separately managed account business. In addition, the Trustees observed that, in managing the New Fund’s portfolio, GW&K would use top-down research that focuses on managing duration, yield curve, credit quality, volatility and liquidity, as well as bottom-up research that focuses on fundamental analysis, valuation analysis, and technical analysis.
PERFORMANCE
Because the New Fund has not yet commenced operations, the Trustees noted that they could not draw any conclusions regarding the performance of the New Fund. The Trustees, however, considered the performance of the other funds in the AMG Fund Complex subadvised by GW&K.
ADVISORY FEES; FUND EXPENSES; PROFITABILITY; AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE
The Trustees noted that the New Fund is proposed to pay no advisory fee to the Investment Manager for the services to be provided under the Investment Management Agreement and that the Investment Manager is proposed to pay no subadvisory fee to GW&K in exchange for the services to be provided by GW&K under the Subadvisory Agreement. The Trustees noted that the New Fund is an integral part |
of separately managed account programs, and the Investment Manager or GW&K will be compensated directly or indirectly by program sponsors or program participants. The Trustees noted that the Investment Manager would indirectly benefit from compensation received by GW&K because the Investment Manager and GW&K are affiliated. The Trustees also noted payments to be made from the Subadviser to the Investment Manager. The Trustees also took into account the fact that the Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through at least May 1, 2028, to limit the total annual operating expenses (exclusive of taxes, interest (including interest incurred in connection with bank and custody overdrafts and in connection with securities sold short), brokerage commissions and other transaction costs, dividends payable with respect to securities sold short, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) of the New Fund to the annual rate of 0.00% of the New Fund’s average daily net assets. The Trustees concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Investment Manager and GW&K and the considerations noted above with respect to the Investment Manager and GW&K, the New Fund’s advisory fees and subadvisory fees are reasonable.
In considering the anticipated profitability of the Investment Manager with respect to the provision of investment advisory services to the New Fund, the Trustees considered all revenues and other benefits, both direct and indirect (including any so-called “fallout benefits” such as reputational value derived from the Investment Manager serving as investment manager to the New Fund), received by the Investment Manager attributable to managing the New Fund; the cost of providing such services; the significant risks undertaken as Investment Manager and sponsor of the New Fund, including investment, operational, enterprise, entrepreneurial, litigation, regulatory and compliance risks; and the resulting profitability to the Investment Manager and its affiliates from these relationships. The Trustees also considered that the Investment Manager would receive no advisory fee from the New Fund. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Investment Manager is expected to be reasonable and that, since the New Fund does not currently have any assets, the Investment Manager is not realizing any material benefits from economies of scale. With respect to economies of scale, the Trustees also noted that as the New Fund’s |
33
|
ITEM 11. STATEMENT REGARDING BASIS FOR APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT
| ||
|
| ||
| assets increase over time, the Investment Manager may realize economies of scale to the extent that the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses, but noted the existence of the proposed expense limitation agreement and the expense cap described above.
In considering the anticipated profitability of GW&K with respect to the provision of subadvisory services to the New Fund, although recognizing that profitability with respect to the New Fund is speculative, the Trustees considered information regarding GW&K’s organization, management and financial stability. The Trustees noted that, because GW&K is an affiliate of the Investment Manager, a portion of GW&K’s revenues or anticipated profitability might be shared directly or indirectly with the Investment Manager. The Trustees also noted that GW&K would receive no subadvisory fee from the Investment Manager with respect to the New Fund, but that it would be separately compensated by program sponsors and program participants. The Trustees also took into account management’s discussion of the services GW&K is |
expected to provide in performing its functions under the Subadvisory Agreement. The Trustees also considered the anticipated net assets of the New Fund for its first year of operations. The Trustees also were provided, at their June 11, 2025 meeting, with the profitability of GW&K with respect to the other funds it subadvises in the AMG Fund Complex. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to GW&K is expected to be reasonable and that, since the New Fund does not currently have any assets, GW&K is not realizing material benefits from economies of scale. Also with respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that as the New Fund’s assets increase over time, GW&K may realize other economies of scale to the extent the increase in assets is proportionally greater than the increase in certain other expenses, but noted the existence of the proposed expense limitation agreement and the expense cap described above.
* * * *
After consideration of the foregoing, the Trustees also reached the following conclusions (in addition to the conclusions discussed above) regarding the New |
Fund Agreements: (a) the Investment Manager and GW&K have demonstrated that they possess the capability and resources to perform the duties required of them under the Investment Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement; (b) GW&K’s investment strategy is appropriate for pursuing the New Fund’s investment objectives; (c) GW&K is reasonably likely to execute its investment strategy consistently over time; and (d) the Investment Manager and GW&K maintain appropriate compliance programs.
Based on all of the above-mentioned factors and their related conclusions, with no single factor or conclusion being determinative and with each Trustee not necessarily attributing the same weight to each factor, the Trustees concluded that approval of the New Fund Agreements would be in the best interests of the New Fund and its shareholders. Accordingly, on March 18, 2026, the Trustees, and separately a majority of the Independent Trustees, unanimously voted to approve the New Fund Agreements. |
