How did the Fund perform during the reporting period?

For the six months ending August 31, 2024, the CM Advisors Fixed Income Fund (CMFIX) returned 4.24%, slightly below the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index's return of 4.83%.

The first half of the Fund's fiscal year ending February 28, 2025, from March 1, 2024, to August 31, 2024, was marked by volatility in interest rates as investors responded to mixed economic signals. Initially, yields rose, reflecting an economy more resilient than expected, but by summer, signs of slowing growth led to a reversal, resulting in lower yields. Longer-duration bonds outperformed shorter ones during this period, benefiting the longer-duration index relative to the Fund's shorter-duration holdings, hence our slight underperformance.

How has the Fund performed over the last ten years?

CM Advisors Fixed Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
August 31, 2024 (Unaudited)

1. Organization

CM Advisors Fixed Income Fund (the “Fund”) is a diversified no-load series of CM Advisors Family of Funds (the “Trust”), which was organized as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) as an open-end management investment company.

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to preserve capital and maximize total return.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The Fund follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, “Financial Services - Investment Companies.” The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Regulatory update - Tailored Shareholder Reports for Mutual Funds and Exchange-Traded Funds (“ETFs”) - Effective January 24, 2023, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in a streamlined shareholder report but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments have a compliance date of July 24, 2024. The Fund has implemented the rule and form requirements, as applicable, and is currently adhering to the requirements.

Investment Valuation - The Fund’s portfolio securities are generally valued at their market values determined on the basis of available market quotations as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (typically 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). Securities, including common stocks, listed on an exchange or quoted on a national market system are valued at the last sales price. Securities which are quoted by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the most recent bid price. To the extent that the Fund is invested in other open-end investment companies, including money market funds, that are registered under the 1940 Act and not traded on an exchange, the Fund’s net asset values (“NAVs”) are calculated based upon the NAVs reported by such registered open-end investment companies; the prospectuses for these registered open-end investment companies explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing. Fixed income securities are typically valued based on prices provided by an independent pricing service. Securities and assets for which representative market quotations are not readily available (e.g., if the exchange on which the portfolio security is principally traded closes early or if trading of the particular portfolio security is halted during the day and does not resume prior to the Fund’s NAV calculation) or which cannot be accurately valued using the Fund’s normal pricing procedures are valued at fair value as determined by Van Den Berg Management I, Inc. (d/b/a CM Fund Advisors) (the

12

CM Advisors Fixed Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

“Advisor”), as the Fund’s valuation designee, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. Under these procedures, the securities will be classified as Level 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy (see below), depending on the inputs used. A portfolio security’s “fair value” price may differ from the price next available for that portfolio security using the Fund’s normal pricing procedures.

GAAP establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs

Corporate bonds and U.S. Treasury obligations held by the Fund are classified as Level 2 since values are based on prices provided by an independent pricing service that utilizes various “other significant observable inputs” including bid and ask quotations, prices of similar securities and interest rates, among other factors.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The inputs used to measure the fair value of a particular security may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement of that security falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments and the inputs used to value the investments as of August 31, 2024 by security type:

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Common Stocks $ - $ 2,796,540 $ - $ 2,796,540
Corporate Bonds - 18,748,899 - 18,748,899
U.S. Treasury Obligations - 4,579,084 - 4,579,084
Money Market Funds 792,526 - - 792,526
Total $ 792,526 $ 26,124,523 $ - $ 26,917,049

Refer to the Fund’s Schedule of Investments for a listing of the securities by asset type and sector and industry type. The Fund did not hold any assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of or during the six months ended August 31, 2024.

Share Valuation - The NAV per share of the Fund is calculated on each business day by dividing the total value of the Fund’s assets, less liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share of the Fund is equal to the NAV per share.

CM Advisors Fixed Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Investment Transactions and Investment Income - Investment transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Discounts and premiums on fixed income securities purchased are amortized using the effective interest method. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on a specific identification basis, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, if any, have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

Dividends and Distributions - Dividends arising from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid quarterly to shareholders of the Fund. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are generally declared and distributed annually. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either temporary or permanent in nature and are primarily due to differing treatments of net short-term capital gains. Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

The tax character of distributions paid during the periods ended August 31, 2024 and February 29, 2024 was ordinary income.

Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases (decreases) in net assets resulting from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. Federal Income Tax

The Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify each year as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Qualification generally will relieve the Fund of liability for federal income taxes to the extent 100% of its net investment income and net realized capital gains are distributed in accordance with the Code.

In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also the Fund’s intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years.

14

CM Advisors Fixed Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of August 31, 2024:

Tax cost of investments $ 25,095,485
Gross unrealized appreciation $ 1,884,401
Gross unrealized depreciation (62,837 )
Net unrealized appreciation 1,821,564
Accumulated ordinary income 176,607
Capital loss carryforwards (2,428,529 )
Other losses (10,246 )
Accumulated deficit $ (440,604 )

The difference between the federal income tax cost of investments and the financial statement cost for the Fund is due to certain timing differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses under income tax regulations and GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are temporary in nature and are due to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.

As of February 29, 2024, the Fund had short-term capital loss carryforwards of $209,880 and long-term capital loss carryforwards of $2,218,649 for federal income tax purposes. These capital loss carryforwards, which do not expire, may be utilized in the current and future years to offset realized capital gains, if any, prior to distributing such gains to shareholders.

The Fund recognizes the benefits or expenses of uncertain tax positions only if the position is “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for the current and all open tax years (generally, three years) and has concluded that no provision for unrecognized tax benefits or expenses is required in these financial statements.

The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits, as income tax expenses in the Statement of Operations. For the six months ended August 31, 2024, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

4. Investment Transactions

During the six months ended August 31, 2024, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities, other than short-term investments and U.S. Government obligations, were as follows:

Cost of purchases of investment securities $ 3,060,956
Proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities $ 2,011,508

Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and maturities of long-term U.S. Government obligations during the six months ended August 31, 2024 were:

Cost of purchases of investment securities $ 1,006,254
Proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities $ 997,298

5. Transactions with Related Parties

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

The Fund pays a monthly management fee to the Advisor calculated at the annual rate of 0.50% of its average daily net assets. The Advisor has entered into an Expense Limitation Agreement (the “ELA”) with the Fund under which it has agreed until July 1, 2025 to waive its fees and to assume other expenses of the Fund, if necessary, in an amount that limits the Fund’s total operating expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with GAAP, other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business, dividend expense on securities sold short, Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, and amounts, if any, under a Rule 12b-1 Plan) to not more than 0.87% of its average daily net assets. The ELA cannot be terminated prior to July 1, 2025 without the approval of the Board. Accordingly, during the six months ended August 31, 2024, the Advisor did not collect any of its management fees and reimbursed other operating expenses in the amount of $15,889. These fees are not available for recoupment by the Advisor.

Certain Trustees and officers of the Trust are also officers of the Advisor.

OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS

Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“Ultimus”) provides administration, accounting, and transfer agency services to the Fund. The Fund pays Ultimus fees in accordance with the agreements for its services. In addition, the Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies and certain costs related to the pricing of its portfolio securities.

Pursuant to the terms of a Distribution Agreement with the Trust, Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as the Fund’s principal underwriter. The Distributor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultimus. For the six months ended August 31, 2024, the Distributor received $4,000 in fees from the Fund for such services.

COMPENSATION OF TRUSTEES

Trustees and officers affiliated with the Advisor or Ultimus are not compensated by the Fund for their services. Each Trustee who is not an affiliated person of the Advisor or Ultimus receives an annual retainer of $10,000, paid quarterly; a fee of $2,000 for attendance at each in-person meeting of the Board of Trustees; and a fee of $500 for attendance at each telephonic meeting of the Board of Trustees. The Fund reimburses each Trustee and officer for his or her travel and other expenses relating to attendance at Board or committee meetings.

PRINCIPAL HOLDER OF FUND SHARES

As of August 31, 2024, the following shareholder of record owned 25% or more of the outstanding shares of the Fund:

Name of Record Owner % Ownership
Charles Schwab & Company (for the benefit of its customers) 88%

16

CM Advisors Fixed Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

A beneficial owner of 25% or more of the Fund’s outstanding shares may be considered a controlling person. That shareholder’s vote could have more significant effect on matters presented at a shareholders’ meeting.

6. Contingencies and Commitments

The Fund indemnifies the Trust’s officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from the performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure 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 expects the risk of loss to be remote.

7. Subsequent Event

The Fund is required to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed as of the date of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For non-recognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Fund is required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Management has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of these financial statements and has noted no such events other than the following:

On September 30, 2024, the Fund paid an ordinary income dividend of $0.1072 per share to shareholders of record on September 27, 2024.
