THE ALGER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 1 — General: The Alger Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end registered investment company organized as a business trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts. The Trust qualifies as an investment company as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 946 – Financial Services – Investment Companies. The Trust operates as a series company currently
offering an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest in ten series — Alger Capital Appreciation Fund, Alger 35 Fund, Alger Growth & Income Fund, Alger Mid Cap Growth Fund, Alger Mid Cap Focus Fund, Alger Weatherbie Specialized Growth Fund,
Alger Small Cap Growth Fund, Alger Small Cap Focus Fund, Alger International Focus Fund and Alger Health Sciences Fund (collectively, the “Funds” or individually, each a “Fund”). Alger Capital Appreciation Fund, Alger 35 Fund, Alger Mid Cap Growth
Fund, Alger Mid Cap Focus Fund, Alger Weatherbie Specialized Growth Fund, Alger Small Cap Growth Fund, Alger Small Cap Focus Fund, Alger International Focus Fund and Alger Health Sciences Fund normally invest primarily in equity securities and each has
an investment objective of long-term capital appreciation. Alger Growth & Income Fund also normally invests primarily in equity securities and has an investment objective of both capital appreciation and current income. Each Fund offers one or more of the following share classes: Class A, B, C, I, Y and Z. Class A shares are generally subject to an initial sales charge
while Class B and C shares are generally subject to a deferred sales charge. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after the end of the calendar month in which the order to purchase was accepted. The conversion is
completed without the imposition of any sales charges or other fees. Class C shares will automatically convert to Class A shares on the fifth business day of the month following the eighth anniversary of the purchase date of a shareholder’s Class C
shares, without the imposition of any sales load, fee or other charge. Class B and C shares held at certain dealers may not convert to Class A shares or may be converted on a different schedule. At conversion, a proportionate amount of shares
representing reinvested dividends and distributions will also be converted into Class A shares. Effective August 27, 2019, Class C shares were closed to direct shareholders and are only available for purchase through certain financial intermediaries
and group retirement plan recordkeeping platforms. Class I, Y and Z shares are generally sold to institutional investors and are sold without an initial or deferred sales charge. Class Y and Z shares are generally subject to a minimum initial
investment of $500,000. Each class has identical rights to assets and earnings, except that each share class bears the pro rata allocation of the Fund’s expenses other than a class expense (not including advisory or custodial fees or other expenses
related to the management of the Fund’s assets). Class Y shares of Alger Small Cap Growth Fund launched on December 31, 2021. On May 23, 2023, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) approved the transition of the Fund’s custodian and administrator from Brown Brothers Harriman &
Company (the “Custodian”) to The Bank of New York Mellon. This change is anticipated to become effective in early 2024. THE ALGER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued) NOTE 2 — Significant Accounting Policies: (a) Investment Valuation: The Funds value their financial instruments at fair value using independent dealers or pricing services under policies
approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”). Investments held by the Funds are valued on each day the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) is open, as of the close of the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time). The Board has designated, pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), the Funds’ investment adviser, Fred
Alger Management, LLC (“Alger Management” or the “Investment Manager”) as its valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) to make fair value determinations subject to the Board’s review and oversight. The Valuation Designee has established a
Valuation Committee (“Committee”) comprised of representatives of the Investment Manager and officers of the Funds to assist in performing the duties and responsibilities of the Valuation Designee. The Valuation Designee has established valuation processes including but not limited to: (i) making fair value determinations when market quotations for
financial instruments are not readily available in accordance with valuation policies and procedures adopted by the Board; (ii) assessing and managing material risks associated with fair valuation determinations; (iii) selecting, applying and testing
fair valuation methodologies; and (iv) overseeing and evaluating pricing services used by the Funds. The Valuation Designee regularly reports its fair valuation determinations and related valuation information to the Board. The Committee generally
meets quarterly and on an as-needed basis to review and evaluate the effectiveness of the valuation policies and procedures in accordance with the requirements of Rule 2a-5. Investments in money market funds and short-term securities held by the Funds having a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized
cost which approximates market value. Equity securities, including traded rights, warrants and option contracts for which valuation information is readily available, are valued at the last
quoted sales price or official closing price on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded as reported by an independent pricing service. In the absence of quoted sales, such securities are generally valued at the bid price or, in the
absence of a recent bid price, the equivalent as obtained from one or more of the major market makers for the securities to be valued. Securities in which the Funds invest may be traded in foreign markets that close before the close of the NYSE. Developments that occur between the close of
the foreign markets and the close of the NYSE may result in adjustments to the closing foreign prices to reflect what the Valuation Designee, through its Committee, believes to be the fair value of these securities as of the close of the NYSE. The
Funds may also fair value securities in other situations, for example, when a particular foreign market is closed but the NYSE is open. THE ALGER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued) FASB Accounting Standards Codification 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) defines fair value as the price that the Funds would
receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the
use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and may be observable or
unobservable. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Funds. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Funds’ own assumptions based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier
hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below. The Funds’ valuation techniques are generally consistent with either the market or the income approach to fair value. The market approach considers prices
and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets to measure fair value. The income approach converts future amounts to a current, or discounted, single amount. These fair value measurements are
determined on the basis of the value indicated by current market expectations about such future events. Inputs for Level 1 include exchange-listed prices and broker quotes in an active market. Inputs for Level 2 include the last trade price in the case
of a halted security, an exchange-listed price which has been adjusted for fair value factors, and prices of closely related securities. Additional Level 2 inputs include an evaluated price which is based upon a compilation of observable market
information such as spreads for fixed income and preferred securities. Inputs for Level 3 include, but are not limited to, revenue multiples, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples, discount rates, time to
exit and the probabilities of success of certain outcomes. Such unobservable market information may be obtained from a company’s financial statements and from industry studies, market data, and market indicators such as benchmarks and indexes. Because
of the inherent uncertainty and often limited markets for restricted securities, the valuations assigned to such securities by the Funds may significantly differ from the valuations that would have been assigned by the Funds had there been an active
market for such securities. (b) Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include U.S. dollars, foreign cash and overnight time deposits. THE ALGER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued) NOTE 3 — Fair Value Measurements: The following is a summary of the inputs used as of July 31, 2023 in valuing the Funds’ investments carried at fair value on a recurring basis. Based upon
the nature, characteristics, and risks associated with their investments, the Funds have determined that presenting them by security type and sector is appropriate.

the sale of Level 3 common stock, Altaba, Inc., for the period ended July 31, 2023. * Includes securities that are fair
valued at zero. The following table provides quantitative information about each Fund’s Level 3
fair value measurements of its investments as of July 31, 2023. The table below is not intended to be all-inclusive, but rather provides information on the Level 3 inputs as they relate to each Fund’s fair value measurements. THE ALGER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
* Prosetta
Biosciences, Inc., Series D shares are classified as a Level 3 investment and are fair valued at zero as of July 31, 2023. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of each
Fund’s securities are revenue and EBITDA multiples, discount rates, and the probability of success of certain outcomes. Significant increases and decreases in these inputs in isolation and interrelationships between these inputs would have resulted
in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements than those noted in the table above. Generally, all other things being equal, increases in revenue and EBITDA multiples, decreases in discount rates, and increases in the probability of success
result in higher fair value measurements, whereas decreases in revenues and EBITDA multiples, increases in discount rates, and decreases in the probability of success result in lower fair value measurements. THE ALGER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued) Certain of the Funds’ assets and liabilities are held at carrying amount or face value, which
approximates fair value for financial reporting purposes. As of July 31, 2023, such assets were categorized within the ASC 820 disclosure hierarchy as follows: NOTE 4 — Affiliated Securities:
During the nine-month period ended July 31, 2023, as disclosed in the following table, certain
Funds held 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the issuers listed below. As such, these issuers were “affiliated persons” of the applicable Fund(s) for purposes of the 1940 Act. Transactions during the nine-month period ended July 31,
2023 with such affiliated persons are summarized below. During this period, other Funds in the Trust may also have held voting shares of the issuers at levels below 5%. THE ALGER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
