June 16, 2010

Dear Fellow Shareholder:

During the summer of 2009, as the market recovered from its lows, there were many skeptics. These skeptics wondered if the economy was really recovering and if the market rally was a head fake. With the benefit of hindsight, we know that the economy was indeed recovering and that the market would continue to rally.

Today, the skeptics again are out in force, but the lament is a different, though familiar, one: a double-dip. This fear early in a recovery that GDP growth is poised to decline is common, even though such an event is rare. Why is it so common? One explanation is that each cycle has unique characteristics that make it feel different than previous ones. Another possibility is that economic data never shows improvement in a perfectly linear fashion, so when there is a setback, investors get worried. We believe that is what is happening right now and that it explains the recent market correction. There have been some disappointing economic reports, which, when combined with the perception that this recovery is dependent on government stimulus, have led many to conclude that a slowdown is imminent. Despite some worrisome issues (increasing regulation, fiscal deficits at the federal and state level, lack of employment growth), we don’t share this bearish economic view. Given historical precedent, the upward sloping yield curve(1) which is auguring economic strength, not weakness), and our belief that people tend to underestimate the self-reinforcing nature of a recovery, we believe the possibility of a double-dip is lower than what investors seem to be pricing into the market. As a result, and because they are still trading at attractive valuations, we have maintained a healthy exposure to cyclical companies in our portfolios. That said, we remain long-term investors, focusing on compelling businesses that will prosper through an entire cycle.

Turning from the macro to the micro, corporate America is prospering. Profitability bodes well for the long-term. Balance sheets and cash flow(2) production are strong. The latter is the fundamental driver of enterprise value, and the low multiple that investors are putting on these cash flows is an indication that they don’t believe it is sustainable. Such skepticism is generally a positive, as it keeps expectations in check.

As a firm, we continue to adhere to a long-term investment approach, constructing portfolios that are concentrated in our best ideas. We believe this increasingly rare combination drives outperformance and gives investors the best chance to grow wealth over time.

Thank you for your investment with Oak Associates Funds.

 

Best regards,

(1)

Yield Curve – A line that plots the interest rates, at a set point in time of bonds having equal credit quality, but differing maturity dates.

 

(2)

Cash Flows – A revenue or expense stream that changes a cash account over a specific period. The Price/Cash Flow ratio or P/CF, is a ratio used to compare a company’s market value to its cash flow. In theory, the lower a stock’s Price/Cash Flow Ratio is, the better value that stock is.

The value of the Funds’ investments will vary from day to day in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions.

   Disclosure of Fund Expenses

 

 

   As of April 30, 2010 (Unaudited)

 

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a fund, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns.

Operating expenses such as these are deducted from the fund’s gross income and directly reduce your final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets; this percentage is known as the fund’s expense ratio.

The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The table on the next page illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:

Actual Fund Return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that your Fund incurred over the period. The “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the “Ending Account Value” number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund’s gross investment return.

You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your actual account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = $8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under “Expenses Paid During Period”.

Hypothetical 5% Return. This section helps you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund’s comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the “Expense Paid During Period” column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other funds.

Note: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund’s actual return — the account values shown may not apply to your specific investment.

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

As of April 30, 2010 (Unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION:

 

The Oak Associates Funds (the “Trust”) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust under an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated November 6, 1997. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company with seven funds: White Oak Select Growth Fund, Rock Oak Core Growth Fund, Pin Oak Equity Fund and River Oak Discovery Fund (diversified funds); Red Oak Technology Select Fund, Black Oak Emerging Technology Fund and Live Oak Health Sciences Fund (non-diversified funds) (collectively referred to as “Funds” and individually referred to as a “Fund”). The assets of each Fund are segregated, and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. The Funds’ prospectus provides a description of each Fund’s investment objectives, policies and strategies.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

 

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and could have a material impact to the Funds.

Security Valuation—Investments in equity securities, which are traded on a national exchange, are stated at the last quoted sales price if readily available for such equity securities on each business day. Investments in equity securities, which are reported on the NASDAQ national market system are valued at the official closing price; other equity securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed equity securities for which no sale was reported on that date are stated at the last quoted bid price. Debt obligations exceeding sixty days to maturity for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the most recently quoted bid price. Debt obligations with sixty days or less remaining until maturity may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Securities for which market prices are not “readily available” (of which there were none as of April 30, 2010) are valued in accordance with Fair Value Procedures established by the Funds’ Board of Trustees. The Funds’ Fair Value Procedures are implemented through a Fair Value Committee (the “Committee”) designated by the Funds’ Board of Trustees. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using Fair Value Procedures include: the security’s trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from a national exchange; the security’s primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security’s primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; a significant event with respect to a security or securities has occurred after the close of the market or exchange on which the security or securities principally trades and before the time the Fund calculates net asset value; or trading of the security is subject to local government-imposed restrictions. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee.

Security Transactions and Investment Income—Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sales of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

As of April 30, 2010 (Unaudited)

 

Expenses—Expenses that are directly related to one of the Funds are charged to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust are prorated to the Funds on the basis of relative daily net assets.

Repurchase Agreements—The Funds invest in tri-party repurchase agreements. Securities held as collateral for tri-party repurchase agreements are maintained by the broker’s custodian bank in a segregated account until maturity of the repurchase agreement. Provisions of the repurchase agreements and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees require that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the counterparty enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders—Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid to shareholders on an annual basis, as applicable. Net realized capital gains on sales of securities, if any, are distributed to shareholders at least annually.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

A three-tier hierarchy has been established to measure fair value based on the extent of use of “observable inputs” as compared to “unobservable inputs” for disclosure purposes and requires additional disclosures about these valuations measurements. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing a security. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the security developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the security developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The three-tier hierarchy is summarized as follows:

 

Level 1:   quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
Level 2:  

other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayments speeds, credit risk, etc.)

8. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:

 

Each of the Funds is classified as a separate taxable entity for Federal income tax purposes. Each of the Funds intends to continue to qualify as a separate “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and make the requisite distributions to shareholders that will be sufficient to relieve it from Federal income tax and Federal excise tax. Therefore, no Federal tax provision is required.

To the extent that dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains exceed amounts reported in the financial statements, such amounts are reported separately.

The amounts of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. The character of dividends from net investment income or distributions from net realized gains made during the year, and the timing of dividends and distributions where the fiscal year in which the amounts are distributed may differ from the year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the Funds. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate equity accounts in the period that the differences arise. These differences are primarily due to the reclass of distributions on net operating losses, expiration of capital loss carryforwards, and the investment in master limited partnerships.

There were no dividends or distributions declared during the period ended April 30, 2010.

The amount and characteristics of tax basis distributions and composition of distributable earnings/ (accumulated losses) are finalized at fiscal year-end; accordingly, tax basis balances have not been determined as of April 30, 2010.

For Federal income tax purposes, capital loss carryforwards may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains.

 Live Oak Health Sciences Fund

     16,175,227      4,818,531    (1,120,093)      3,698,438 
 

Management evaluates the Funds’ tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Recognition of tax benefits of an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax position taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (current and prior three tax years) and has concluded that as of April 30, 2010, no provision for income tax would be required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

9. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND OWNERSHIP

 

The Red Oak Technology Select Fund and the Black Oak Emerging Technology Fund invest a substantial portion of their assets in securities in the technology industry. The Live Oak Health Sciences Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in securities in the health care, medicine and life sciences industries. Therefore, each of these Funds may be more affected by economic developments in those industries than a general equity fund would be.

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be established; however based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.

From time to time, the Funds may have a concentration of several shareholders holding a significant percentage of shares outstanding. Investment activities of these shareholders could have a material impact on the Fund.

As of April 30, 2010, please refer to the below chart for Concentration of Ownership:

 

     Number of Shareholders    Percentage of Ownership  
 

 Rock Oak Core Growth

   2    23%, 21%              
 

 River Oak Discovery

   2    34%, 14%              
 

 Black Oak Emerging Technology

   1    7%              
 

 Live Oak Health Sciences

   2    14%, 7%              
 

10. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

 

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Updated No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU”). The ASU requires enhanced disclosures about (1) transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and (2) purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis relating to Level 3 measurements. The first disclosure is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2009, and the second disclosure will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on the Fund’s financial statement disclosures. The implementation of the ASC did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial disclosures contained in this Report.

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

 

Effective May 17, 2010, ALPS Fund Services, Inc. assumed duties as Administrator and Transfer Agent and ALPS Distributors, Inc. was named distributor to the Trust.

Effective June 10, 2010, the name of the Pin Oak Aggressive Stock Fund was changed to the Pin Oak Equity Fund.

Management has evaluated whether any events or transactions occurred subsequent to April 30, 2010 through issuance date of the Funds’ financial statements, and determined that there were no other material events or transactions that would require recognition or disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.
