Dear Fellow Shareholder,

                                                                            January 2022

The stock market continued to grind higher in 2021 with the S&P 500 achieving its third straight year of 18% or greater total returns. Stocks overcame labor and supply shortages, less accommodative monetary policy, and disruptions from COVID variants as the snapback in the US economy spurred corporate profits, and stocks, to new highs.

Against this backdrop, the TANAKA Growth Fund was up approximately 62% in its fiscal year ending 11/30/21 versus gains of approximately 31% and 28% for the Wilshire 2500 Growth and S&P 500 indexes. For calendar year 2021, the Fund was up 27% versus total returns of 28% and 29% for these same indexes. After achieving a #1 ranking by Lipper in the Multicap Core category for 2020, the Fund earned another #1 ranking in its category by Lipper for the nine months through September 2021. Contribution to the Fund’s performance in 2021 was broad-based across stocks of various sizes, styles, and industries. During the calendar year, we had four stocks up 98% or more (Semiconductors, Biotech, Specialty Materials), two stocks up 60-80% (Private Equity, IT Consulting), four stocks up 40-60% (Uranium, Semiconductor, Auto, Financial Services), and three stocks up 30-40% (Semiconductor, Consumer Electronics, Specialty Insurance).

Following outsized returns in several of our top holdings in 2020, we trimmed certain positions in early 2021 to reduce concentration in the Fund and comply with the diversification rules that govern the Fund. These sales in addition to some of our other portfolio moves during the year generated significant capital gains that we were unable to fully offset with realized losses as we have been able to do in years’ past. As a result, long-term capital gains of $2.65 per share were distributed to TANAKA Growth Fund shareholders on December 28^th, 2021. Please consult with your accountant regarding tax implications of this distribution for 2021.

In 2022, we anticipate stocks to be flat to modestly higher with continued stock market volatility as economic and corporate earnings growth return to more normal levels and monetary policy begins to tighten. In this environment, we believe it is even more important for active managers to find companies doing things internally to generate growth even in a softer economy or stock market.

Investment Outlook

The macro backdrop remains positive in 2022 with the US economy projected to grow at a real rate of 3-4% as it continues to recover from the pandemic-induced recession. We expect supply chain disruptions to gradually ease throughout the year and reduce some of the inflationary pressures in the economy. In addition, the labor market continues to recover and US households continue to have strong balance sheets and pent-up demand for goods and services. While further economic recovery remains dependent on COVID, we believe that future virus variants are more likely to become less severe over time.

Annual Report |  1

TANAKA GROWTH FUND

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (CONTINUED)

Central Bank policy will be a top focus in 2022 as the Federal Reserve begins to tighten after several years of accommodative policy. With strong economic growth and inflation above its 2% target, the Fed is tapering its asset purchases and has signaled to the market that it will begin to raise interest rates in the coming months. We expect policy tightening to be gradual and well-telegraphed and believe that the economy is strong enough to absorb the 3-4 rate hikes currently expected this year. However, we acknowledge that the Fed’s balancing act of taming high inflation without choking off the economic recovery raises the risk of a policy mistake.

Against this backdrop of strong economic growth and shifting monetary policy, we expect stocks to be flat to modestly higher over the next 12 months. We believe that equities are supported by robust revenue and corporate profit growth while margins remain healthy. Corporate balance sheets also remain strong which could lead to higher dividends, more stock buybacks, and elevated M&A activity. However, as interest rates rise, valuation multiples on stocks may come down from the current historically high levels, creating a headwind for equities. Still, we note that stocks have historically performed well during prior rate-hike cycles with double- to triple-digit percent gains for the S&P 500 in four of the last five Fed interest rate hike cycles and a decline of only 5% in the one down cycle dating back to 1994, according to Dow Jones Market Data.

Maintaining Balanced Portfolio Strategy & Emphasizing Stock Picking

We believe that some of the stock market dynamics of 2021 may continue in the new year: 1) Increased stock market volatility as investors balance strong corporate fundamentals versus tightening monetary policy; 2) Growth and Cyclical stocks taking turns outperforming each other as investors react to ongoing inflation readings and Fed policy changes; and 3) Speculative and thematic stocks falling out of favor as investors seek stocks with real revenue, earnings, and cash flow growth and more reasonable valuations given expectations for higher interest rates in the coming years.

In this environment, we are maintaining a balanced portfolio strategy with Cyclical stocks that should benefit from economic recovery and Value stocks with high quality businesses but below-market P/E multiples in addition to our stable of Growth stocks that benefit from company-specific growth opportunities and secular megatrends. We remain busy researching and identifying companies that we perceive to be undervalued and unappreciated by the market. We are also utilizing internet-based tools, placing video interviews on YouTube and publishing articles on Seeking Alpha, etc. to speed up the discovery of our stocks by other investors. We continue to focus on companies with proprietary platforms launching iterations of new products and services, generating growth for many years and addressing long-term trends like 5G, Internet of Things, cloud computing, AI, e-commerce, aging demographics, synthetic biology, and environmental sustainability. Some of our Platform Growth companies are already reaping the benefits of their well-established platforms, however several of our holdings are just beginning to build and monetize their platforms, providing the opportunity for durable long-term growth well beyond the current economic recovery.

Risks to Our Outlook

The greatest risk to our constructive outlook on stocks is inflation from supply chain and labor shortages and related monetary policy responses. We believe that inflation will likely remain elevated in the near-term but should gradually moderate over the next 12-18 months as global supply chain disruptions ease and monetary policy begins to normalize. If high inflation persists longer than expected, the Fed may become more aggressive in raising interest rates and reducing its balance sheet than markets anticipate, which could have negative implications for stocks and the broader economy. COVID-19 also continues to be a risk as emerging variants have the potential to exacerbate supply chain issues and disrupt the global economic recovery. We are encouraged by increasing vaccination rates around the world and believe that future variants are likely to become less severe over time, which we hope to lead to a gradual return to more normal societal and economic activity. We also continue to monitor geopolitical tensions, which have the potential to escalate and be disruptive to markets and economies.

Review of Fiscal 2021

In fiscal 4^th Quarter ending 11/30/21, the Fund was down 12.9% vs. returns of 8.0% and 1.3% for the Wilshire 2500 Growth and S&P 500 indexes. In the Fund’s fiscal year ending 11/30/21, the Fund was up 62.2% vs. gains of 31.2% and 27.9% for the Wilshire 2500 Growth and S&P 500.

Technology holdings were the largest contributors to the Fund’s gains in fiscal 2021. Our Semiconductor and Semiconductor Capital Equipment stocks had another strong year of outperformance as demand for chips continued to outpace supply, driven by accelerated growth and adoption of 5G, cloud computing, AI, gaming, and electric vehicles along with a sharp global economic recovery. Several of our other Technology holdings also outperformed the broader market, particularly those benefiting from cloud adoption and elevated smartphone, laptop, and tablet demand as the world continues to work and educate remotely. We added to our positions in several Financial stocks in the last 18 months and are pleased that these Financials were meaningful contributors to performance during the year. Our Private Equity holding profited from rising asset prices and elevated deal activity while our Financial Services stock benefited from strong trading and investment banking activity along with improving economic and financial conditions. Fund performance also benefited during the fiscal year from gains in several stock picks across a variety of industries including Auto, Biotech, Synthetic Biology, and Uranium.

The Fund’s gains in fiscal 2021 were partially offset by declines in some of our Biotech stocks as well as our Media holding. One of our Biotech holdings fell after several mixed clinical trial results, however the company has a large pipeline addressing a variety of large and small diseases and will have several key clinical trials reporting data in 2022. Another Biotech holding dropped after the FDA unexpectedly declined to approve its New Drug Application for a cancer-related illness. We believe there is still a path forward for this drug to treat this disease and would note that the company is also

planning to seek regulatory approval for its drug to treat Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer in 2022. Our Media holding also underperformed this year despite continued subscriber and revenue growth for its video streaming platforms, which we believe will be better appreciated by investors.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

November 30, 2021

 NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

The TANAKA Growth Fund (the "Fund") was organized as a series of TANAKA Funds, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company") on November 5, 1997; the Fund commenced operations on December 30, 1998.  The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a non-diversified open-end management investment company.  The Fund's investment objective is to provide growth of capital. The Investment Advisor of the Fund is Tanaka Capital Management, Inc. (the "Advisor").

NON-DIVERSIFICATION RISK: As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest larger positions in small number of companies of its total assets. The Fund's performance may be more sensitive to any single economic, business, political or regulatory occurrence than the value of shares of a diversified investment company.  The Fund's performance may be affected disproportionately by the performance of relatively few stocks.  In addition, the volatility of the Fund may be greater than the overall volatility of the market.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.  The Fund is an investment company that follows the accounting and reporting guidance of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies.

Securities Valuations - All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in Note 3.

Federal Income Taxes – The Fund makes no provision for federal income or excise tax.  The Fund intends to qualify each year as “regulated investment companies” (“RIC”) under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, by complying with the requirements applicable to RICs and by distributing substantially all of their taxable income.  The Fund also intends to distribute sufficient net investment income and net capital gains, if any, so that they will not be subject to excise tax on undistributed income and gains.  If the required amount of net investment income or gains is not distributed, the Fund could incur a tax expense. Therefore, no federal income tax or excise provision is required.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years (2018-2020) or expected to be taken in the Fund’s 2021 tax returns. The Fund identifies their major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal, however the Fund is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next 12 months.

Annual Report |  13

TANAKA GROWTH FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

November 30, 2021

The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year ended November 30, 2021, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

Security Transactions and Related Income - The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date.  The specific identification method is used for determining gains or losses for financial statements and income tax purposes. Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the life of the respective securities. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

Dividends and Distributions - The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income as dividends to its shareholders on at least an annual basis.  The Fund intends to distribute its net realized long-term capital gains and its net realized short-term capital gains at least once a year.  Distributions to shareholders which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and are recorded on the ex-dividend date.  The treatment for financial reporting purposes of distributions made to shareholders during the year from net investment income or net realized capital gains may differ from their ultimate treatment for federal income tax purposes. These differences are caused by differences in the timing of the recognition of certain components of income, expense or realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes.  Where such differences are permanent in nature, they are reclassified in the components of the net assets based on their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations or net asset values per share of the Fund.

Foreign Currency - Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on a Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

TANAKA GROWTH FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

November 30, 2021

Use of Estimates - The   preparation of financial   statements in conformity   with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“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 increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents – The Fund considers all highly liquid debt instruments having original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.  The Fund may, during the ordinary course of business, maintain account balances with banks in excess of federally insured limits.  The Fund has not experienced losses on these accounts, and management believes that the Fund is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

The Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) has adopted guidelines for valuing securities including in circumstances in which market quotes are not readily available and has delegated to the Advisor the responsibility for determining fair value prices, subject to review by the Board.

Fair Value Pricing – The Board has delegated to the Advisor responsibility for determining the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities under certain circumstances.  Under such circumstances, the Advisor will use its best efforts to arrive at the fair value of a security held by the Fund under all reasonably ascertainable facts and circumstances.  The Advisor must prepare a report for the Board not less than quarterly containing a complete listing of any securities for which fair value pricing was employed and detailing the specific reasons for such fair value pricing.  The Fund has adopted written policies and procedures to guide the Advisor with respect to the circumstances under which, and the methods to be used, in fair valuing securities.

The Fund invests the majority of its assets in frequently traded exchange listed securities of domestic issuers with relatively liquid markets and calculates its NAV as of the time those exchanges close.  However, the Fund may invest in securities on foreign exchanges or in illiquid or restricted securities.  Accordingly, there may be circumstances under which the Fund would hold a security that would need to be fair value priced.  Examples of when it would be likely that the Fund security would require fair value pricing include but are not limited to: if the exchange on which a portfolio security trades were to close early; if trading in a particular security were to be halted on an exchange and did not resume trading prior to calculation of NAV; if a significant event that materially affected the value of a security were to occur after the securities’ exchange had closed but before the Fund’s NAV had been calculated; and if a security that had a significant exposure to

foreign operations was subject to a material event or occurrence in a foreign jurisdiction in which the company had significant operations.

When a security is fair value priced, it means that the Advisor is calculating the value of that security on a day and under circumstances where reliable pricing information from normal sources is not available.  Accordingly, there is always the possibility that the Advisor’s calculations concerning security value could be wrong, and as a result, the Fund’s NAV on that day could be higher or lower, depending on how the security was valued, than would otherwise be the case.

Hierarchy of Fair Value Inputs

The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of most of its investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs are as follows:

·

Level 1. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.

·

Level 2. Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.

·

Level 3. Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability at the measurement date, and that would be based on the best information available.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value 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 falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Fair Value Measurements

A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows.

Equity securities (Domestic and Foreign common stock) - Securities traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the NASDAQ national market) are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. To the extent these securities are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Certain foreign securities may be fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as American Depositary Receipts, financial futures, Exchange Traded Funds, and the movement of the certain indexes of securities based on a statistical analysis of the historical relationship and that are categorized in Level 2.

Short term investments - Short term investments are valued using amortized cost, which approximates fair value.  These securities will be categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Money market funds are valued at their net asset value of $1 per share and are categorized as Level 1.

Derivative Instruments (warrants and rights) - The Fund can invest in warrants and rights of companies of any market capitalization. A warrant and right gives the Fund the right to buy stock, typically from the issuer. The warrant and right specifies the amount of underlying stock, the purchase (or “exercise”) price, and the date the warrant and right expires. Certain warrants and rights permit, without legal obligation, net settlement for stock or cash. The Fund has no obligation to exercise the warrants and rights and buy the stock. Derivative transactions which are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Derivative transactions traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Warrants and rights are valued using the Black-Scholes Model and are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.  

The following table summarizes the inputs used to value the Fund's assets measured at fair value as of November 30, 2021:

	Financial Instruments—Assets
Categories	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Fair Value
Common Stocks *	$  21,182,171	$           -	$           -	$  21,182,171

NOTE 4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Fund retains the Advisor to manage the Fund's investments and act as Administrator to the Fund.  The Advisor was organized as a Delaware corporation in 1986.  Graham Y. Tanaka, portfolio manager and President of the Advisor, is primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio. Certain officers of the Advisor serve as director and officers of the Fund.

Under the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement, (the "Advisory Agreement"), the Advisor manages the Fund's investments subject to approval by the Board.  As compensation for its management services, the Fund is obligated to pay the Advisor a fee computed and accrued daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. For the year ended November 30, 2021, the Advisor earned a fee of $211,627 from the Fund. The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its management fees and/or reimburse the Fund for the expenses it incurs, but only to the extent necessary to maintain total annual operating expenses at 2.45% of the average daily net assets, through November 30, 2021. At November 30, 2021, the Fund owed the Advisor $20,194 for management fees.

The Fund has agreed that any operating expenses of the Fund reimbursed or waived by the Advisor shall be repaid to the Advisor by the Fund in the first, second and third fiscal years following the year ending November 30, if the total expenses for the Fund for each such year or years, after giving effect to the repayment, do not exceed 2.45% of the average daily net assets (or any lower expense limitation or limitations to which the Advisor may agree). For the year ended November 30, 2021, the Advisor recouped $45,703. All fees waived have been recouped.

Under the terms of the Administrative Agreement, the Advisor will provide administrative services which are necessary for the day-to-day operations of the Fund.  As compensation for the administrative services, the Fund is obligated to pay the Advisor a fee computed and accrued daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.  For the year ended November 30, 2021, the Advisor

NOTE 8.  INDEMNIFICATIONS

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain general indemnification to other parties. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these contracts is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. The Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

NOTE 9.  BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of the Fund under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act.  As of November 30, 2021, National Financial Services Corp. held in omnibus accounts for the benefit of others approximately 29% of the voting securities of the Fund and may be deemed to control the Fund.  

NOTE 10.  SECTOR RISK

If the Fund's portfolio is overweighted in a certain industry sector, any negative development affecting that sector will have a greater impact on the Fund than a fund that is not overweighted in that sector.  For example, to the extent the Fund is overweighted in the technology sector it will be affected by developments affecting the applicable sector.  The sector is subject to changing government regulations that may limit profits and restrict services offered.  Companies in this sector also may be significantly affected by intense competition.  In addition, technology products may be subject to rapid obsolescence.

NOTE 11.  MARKET RISK

Overall market risks may also affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as domestic economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels and political events affect the securities markets. Local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issue, recessions and depressions, or other events could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity, thereby increasing liquidity risk. The Fund could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns. During a general market downturn, multiple asset classes may be negatively affected. Changes in market conditions and interest rates can have the same impact on all types of securities and instruments.

An outbreak of infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19 was first detected in China in December 2019 and has now been detected globally. This coronavirus has resulted in travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged quarantines, cancellations, supply chain disruptions, and lower consumer demand, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of COVID-19, and other infectious illness outbreaks that may arise in the future, could adversely affect the economies of many nations or the entire global economy, individual issuers and capital markets in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. In addition, the impact of infectious illnesses in emerging market countries may

be greater due to generally less established healthcare systems. Public health crises caused by the COVID-19 outbreak may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries or globally. The duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and its effects cannot be determined with certainty.

NOTE 12.  CHANGE OF SERVICE PROVIDER (UNAUDITED)

At its June 8, 2021 special meeting, the Board and the Independent Directors, with the approval and recommendation of the Audit Committee, selected Cohen & Company, Ltd.  (“Cohen”), to replace Sanville & Company (“Sanville”), as the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Fund for the Fund’s fiscal year ending November 30, 2021. For the fiscal years ended November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019, Sanville audited the Fund’s financial statements. Sanville’s audit reports on the financial statements of the Fund for the fiscal years ended November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle. In addition, during the fiscal years ended November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019 and the period November 30, 2020 to June 8, 2021 (the “Interim Period”) there were no disagreements between the Funds and Sanville on accounting principles, financial statement disclosures or audit scope, which, if not resolved to Sanville’s satisfaction, would have caused Sanville to make reference to the disagreement in their reports on the financial statements for such years.  

During the fiscal years ended November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019 and the Interim Period, neither the Fund nor anyone on behalf of the Fund had consulted Cohen on items that concerned (a) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Fund’s financial statements, or (b) the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K and related instructions) or reportable events (as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K). The selection of Cohen does not reflect any disagreements or dissatisfaction by the Fund, the Board, or the Audit Committee with the performance of Sanville.

NOTE 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On December 28, 2021, the Fund paid a long-term capital gain distribution of $2.65 per share to shareholder of record as of December 28, 2021 totaling $1,363,047.

Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Fund through the issuance of these financial statements and has noted no further events requiring disclosure.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of TANAKA Funds, Inc. comprising TANAKA Growth Fund (the “Fund”) as of November 30, 2021, the related statements of operations and changes in net assets, the related notes, and the financial highlights for the year then ended (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of

November 30, 2021, the results of its operations, the changes in net assets, and the financial highlights for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Fund’s financial statements and financial highlights for the years ended November 30, 2020, and prior, were audited by other auditors whose report dated January 27, 2021, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and financial highlights.

Basis for Opinion

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

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Fund’s auditor since 2021. In addition, we served as the Fund’s auditor for fiscal years ended 1998 through 2005.

EXPENSE ILLUSTRATION

November 30, 2021 (UNAUDITED)

Expense Example

As a shareholder of the TANAKA Growth Fund, you incur ongoing costs which typically consist of management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; transaction fees such as redemption fees and ongoing costs; and other Fund expenses. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs (in dollars) only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, June 1, 2021 through November 30, 2021.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. As a shareholder of the TANAKA Growth Fund, you incur ongoing costs which typically consist of transaction fees such as redemption fees and ongoing costs; and other Fund expenses that are not included in this calculation.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in this Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.  As a shareholder of the TANAKA Growth Fund, you incur ongoing costs which typically consist of transaction fees such as redemption fees and ongoing costs; and other Fund expenses that are not included in this calculation.

	Beginning Account Value	Ending Account Value	Expenses Paid During the Period*
	June 1, 2021	November 30, 2021	June 1, 2021 to November 30, 2021
Actual	$1,000.00	$981.88	$9.89

LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

The Fund has adopted and implemented a written liquidity risk management program as required by Rule 22e-4 (the “Liquidity Rule”) under the Investment Company Act. The program is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund’s liquidity risk, taking into consideration, among other factors, the Fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its short and long-term cash flow projections; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources.

During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2021, the Trust’s Liquidity Risk Management Program Committee (the “Committee”) reviewed the Fund’s investments and determined that the Fund held adequate levels of cash and highly liquid investments to meet shareholder redemption activities in accordance with applicable requirements. Accordingly, the Committee concluded that (i) the Fund’s liquidity risk management program is reasonably designed to prevent violations of the Liquidity Rule and (ii) the Fund’s liquidity risk management program has been effectively implemented.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT RENEWAL

At a meeting held on December 14, 2021, the Board considered the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Fund and Tanaka Capital Management, Inc. (the “IA Agreement”).  The Board began its review of the IA Agreement and discussed the Board’s responsibilities and considerations when reviewing the Agreement.  Independent Counsel (“Counsel”) advised the Board that there are five factors set forth by the SEC as minimum considerations, each of which must be visited when considering the renewal of the IA Agreement.  Counsel guided the Board through each consideration, including: (1) the nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by the investment advisor; (2) the investment performance of the fund and the investment advisor; (3) the costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the investment adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the fund; (4) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the fund grows; and (5) whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of fund investors.

In addition to the five factors discussed above, and to further assist the Board in making its determination as to whether the IA Agreement should be renewed, the Board had requested and received the following information: a description of the Advisor’s business and any personnel changes, the Code of Ethics and insider trading policy, and a description of any material legal proceedings or securities enforcement proceedings regarding the Advisor and sub-advisors and their personnel. In addition, the Board

Annual Report |  25

TANAKA GROWTH FUND

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

November 30, 2021 (UNAUDITED)

requested and received financial statements from the Adviser for relevant periods, a description of the compensation received by the Advisor from the Fund both as aggregate and in relation to fees charged by other advisors to similar funds, information relating to the Advisor’s policies and procedures regarding best execution, trade allocation, and soft dollar arrangements.  The materials prepared by the Advisor were provided to the Board in advance of the meeting.

The Board considered the fees charged by the Advisor in light of the services provided to the Fund by the Advisor.  After full review of the materials presented and careful consideration, the Board, with the independent Directors separately concurring, agreed that the fees charged by the Advisor were fair and reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.

The Board then discussed the nature, extent and quality of the Advisor’s services to the Fund.  In particular, the Board noted with approval the Advisor’s commitment to maintaining certain targeted expense ratios for the Fund, its efforts in providing comprehensive and consistent investment management to the Fund, and its efforts to maintain ongoing regulatory compliance for the Fund.  The Board noted for the record that it reviewed, on a quarterly basis, performance and management reports relating to the Fund, and those prior reviews were incorporated into the Board’s current considerations.

The Board discussed the Advisors current fee structure and whether such structure would allow the Fund to realize economies of scale as they grow.  Accordingly, it would be premature of the Board to consider economies of scale.

The Board next considered the investment performance of the Fund and the Advisor’s performance.  The Board generally approved of the Fund’s performance.  The Board noted with approval the Advisor’s ongoing efforts to maintain such consistent investment discipline.  The Board also noted with approval that although the Adviser’s business was not devoted exclusively to serving the Fund, the Advisor did not appear to realize any extraordinary ancillary benefits or profits deriving from its relationship with the Fund.  Further considerations are discussed below.

1.  The nature, quality, and extent of services furnished by TANAKA, including:

(a) That the breadth and the quality of investment advisory and other services being provided are satisfactory, as evidenced in part by the performance record of the Fund compared with the performance records of a peer group of comparable funds;

(b) That TANAKA has made significant expenditures in prior years to ensure that it has the systems and highly trained personnel necessary for it to be able to continue to provide quality service to the Fund’s shareholders, including the dedication of substantial resources to TANAKA’s investment and trading departments; and

Annual Report |  26

TANAKA GROWTH FUND

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

November 30, 2021 (UNAUDITED)

(c) That the Board is satisfied with the research, portfolio management, and trading services, among others, being provided by TANAKA to the Fund, and has determined that TANAKA is charging fair, reasonable, and competitive fees.

(d) The risks assumed by TANAKA in providing investment advisory services to the Fund including the capital commitments which have been made in the past and which continue to be made by TANAKA to ensure the continuation of the highest quality of service to the Fund is made with the recognition that the Fund’s advisory relationship with TANAKA can be terminated at any time and must be renewed on an annual basis.

2.  The fairness of fee arrangements, including:

(a) That upon review of the advisory fee structures of the Fund in comparison with other similar funds, the level of investment advisory fees paid by the Fund is competitive;

(b) That the expense ratio of the Fund is generally competitive;

(c) That TANAKA has contractually agreed to impose expense limitations on the Fund at a cost to TANAKA; and

(d) That the advisory and other fees payable by the Fund to TANAKA are essentially fees which would be similar to those which would have resulted solely from “arm’s-length” bargaining, and may well be lower than fees arrived at solely from such arm’s-length negotiation.

(e) That the fees paid to TANAKA for managing other institutional accounts (such as pension plans) are not lower than the fees paid by similarly-managed funds, and to the extent that the fees of those accounts are lower, the reasons why such accounts are less costly for TANAKA to manage.

(f) The extent to which economies of scale could be realized as a Fund grows in assets and whether the Fund’s fees reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of Fund shareholders.

3.  The costs borne by TANAKA in providing advisory services to the Fund and the profitability of TANAKA in light of the estimated profitability analysis which had been provided by TANAKA; and

4.  The benefits to TANAKA from serving as the Fund’s Advisor

After full discussion and consideration, and being no further questions or comments from the Board, the contract with the Adviser was renewed for another year.
