Dear Investor:
Thank you for your continued affiliation with The Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company. The confidence and trust you place in us reaffirms our commitment to helping policyholders take advantage of all life’s possibilities. We also take pride in being a financially strong mutual insurance company that delivers on our promises, and I’m very pleased to bring you the following capital markets summary. Please remember that regardless of what the markets may bring, short-term performance changes should not distract you from your long-term financial plan, and it’s a good idea to meet with your financial professional regularly to make sure that your asset allocation remains on target.
Despite moderating growth during the second half of 2021, the economic recovery in the U.S. has proven to be resilient to ongoing challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic. Household spending is likely to grow at the fastest pace since World War II. The U.S. consumer has been supported by record-high household wealth, ongoing fiscal assistance programs and tight labor markets helping to fuel wage gains.
Stocks continued to climb higher this year despite a growing wall of worry: inflation running at the hottest level in nearly four decades, new COVID-19 variants threatening the economic recovery and central bank policy likely to turn less accommodative. Investors have instead remained more focused on the strong corporate earnings picture and the lack of attractive alternatives across the fixed-income markets. Earnings and revenues have consistently exceeded estimates across all sectors. Full-year S&P 500 Index earnings are expected to register a nearly 50% gain over 2020, which was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The year started with investors moving away from growth stocks toward more economically sensitive reopening sectors, including cyclicals, energy and banks. However, the long-anticipated “great rotation” was short-lived. The first-quarter interest rate spike quickly reversed course, helping to bring growth stocks back into favor for the remainder of the year. Even though real gross domestic product (GDP) moderated during the third quarter, nominal GDP registered the strongest increase in decades. Inflation pressures are lasting longer than Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers expected and have spread across key economic sectors such as food, energy and housing. Supply chain bottlenecks appear to be easing but demand drivers have kept price pressures elevated. In this very volatile environment, the U.S. stock market, as measured by the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, returned 26.70 percent for the full twelve-month period ending December 31.
On a relative basis, large-capitalization stocks provided higher returns than mid- and small-capitalization stocks during the year. Large-capitalization stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Index, returned 26.45 percent, while mid-capitalization stocks, as measured by the Russell Midcap Index returned 22.58 percent and small-capitalization stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000 Index, returned 14.82 percent. From a style perspective, value stocks outperformed growth stocks for the full year in most market capitalizations, with large-capitalization being the exception. The widest disparity was witnessed in the small-capitalization space. For instance, small-capitalization value stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000 Value Index returned 28.27 percent while small-capitalization growth stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000 Growth Index, returned 2.83 percent.
International markets were mixed during the year and failed to keep pace with the U.S. market performance. China’s regulatory crackdown on a wide range of businesses weighed heavily on emerging markets index performance. In sharp contrast to their U.S. counterparts, large-capitalization technology names in China such as Alibaba and Tencent were especially hard hit by the country’s policy actions. In this environment, emerging markets stocks ended the year with a -2.54 percent return, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index and developed international stocks returned a more favorable 11.26 percent, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index.
Fixed-income markets closed the year mixed with investment-grade bonds, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returning -1.54 percent and high-yield bonds, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index, returning 5.28 percent. During the November Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, the Fed announced the beginning of the end for its ultra-accommodative monetary policies, starting with a plan to wind down its government bond purchases by $15 billion per month. This plan was quickly revised at the December FOMC meeting following new economic and inflation data coming in stronger than expected. The Fed doubled the pace of tapering to $30 billion every month and is now on a path to end new net asset purchases by the end of the first quarter in 2022. Treasury rates moved higher and the yield curve flattened as the year came to a close in response to the Fed’s abrupt U-turn in monetary policy to rein in high inflation.
Once again, we thank you for the privilege of serving your financial needs and encourage you to work closely with your financial professional to continue to explore your options throughout all life’s stages.
Sincerely,
Keith G. Huckerby

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance
Limited Maturity Bond Fund
The Penn Series Limited Maturity Bond Fund returned 0.38% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the -0.47% return for its benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Government/Credit 1-3 Year Bond Index, for the same period.
Short-term Treasury yields held steady for the majority of 2021 but moved materially higher during the fourth quarter after Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Powell acknowledged more aggressive monetary policy tightening would be necessary to rein in higher inflation. The Treasury 2-year note rose more than 60 basis points during 2021 to finish the year at 0.73%.
The Fund’s underweight stance to duration or interest rate risk benefited results during 2021. We expect continued upward pressure on short-term interest rates as the Fed begins to normalize monetary policy. The Fund remains positioned conservatively with regards to duration entering 2022.
Fund results also benefited from outperformance across its holdings of corporate and structured securities as credit spreads moved gradually tighter during the year. We are currently maintaining our overweight to high- quality structured securities, including floating-rate collateralized loan obligations and student loan asset-backed securities, while opportunistically managing risk within the more fully valued corporate sector.

Quality Bond Fund
The Penn Series Quality Bond Fund returned -0.69% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the -1.54% return for its benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index for the same time period.
The pace of the U.S. economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated during the first half of 2021 as progress on vaccinations and ongoing government stimulus boosted growth. Consumer spending grew at a very rapid pace with the support of strong household balance sheets and improving labor market conditions. Growth moderated during the second half of the year but remained in positive territory. The outbreak of new COVID-19 variants and intensifying supply chain disruption weighed on economic activity.
Supply chain disruptions also contributed to a broad-based pick-up in inflation throughout 2021. Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Powell – who for most of the year argued higher inflation would be transitory – did an abrupt U-turn during his December congressional testimony, retiring the word transitory from his inflation forecast. The Fed is now prepared to conclude its bond purchase activity or quantitative easing by March and increase interest rates two to three times by the end of 2022.
Interest rates rose across the entire yield curve for the year with long-term yields initially under pressure. 10-year Treasury note yields peaked around 1.75% as the first quarter came to a close. Shorter-term Treasury yields were relatively stable until the fourth quarter when fixed income investors started to price in more aggressive Fed tightening to rein in inflation. Fund performance benefited from conservative duration or interest rate risk management relative to the benchmark.
Fund returns also benefited from outperformance among its corporate and structured bond holdings as credit spreads moved gradually tighter. Current overweight positioning includes multi-family commercial mortgage-backed securities, high-quality collateralized loan obligations and investment-grade corporate bonds. The Fund’s largest underweight remains agency residential mortgage-backed securities, where valuations remain elevated from Fed purchase activity.

High Yield Bond Fund
The Penn Series High Yield Bond Fund returned 5.12% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 5.49% return for its benchmark, the CSFB High Yield Bond Index for the same time period.
2021 was a strong year for risk markets, particularly equities, as COVID-19 vaccine rollouts led to a reopening of the global economy and created a robust tailwind for earnings. Fixed-income total returns were largely in negative territory due to a 70 basis-point increase in 10-year Treasury rates, but the high-yield asset class returned approximately 5.5%. Credit fundamentals improved dramatically as most companies used free cash flow to reduce elevated debt levels and took advantage of wide-open capital markets to refinance near-term maturities. CCC-rated bonds outperformed BB-rated bonds by approximately 400 basis points as much of the distressed energy universe rallied sharply. The benign credit environment is reflected in current and projected default rates, which are at record-low levels, and spread levels were hovering around post-crisis tights at year-end. For 2022, macro risks center around the pace of the Federal Reserve rate-hiking cycle and the trajectory of inflation, as well as the potential for new COVID-19 variants to emerge, while company-specific risks relate to margin performance and debt-financed mergers and acquisitions.
During the year, the Fund added risk in the health care, airline, retail and auto sectors but still maintained its up-in-quality orientation. The Fund’s energy exposure was also increased in response to higher energy prices and a much better fundamental outlook, resulting in a modest overweight position by the end of the period.
Entering 2022, the Fund is market weight the energy sector, which remains the high-yield index’s largest and most volatile subsector. The Fund remains underweight lower-quality risk, based largely on valuation as we maintain a constructive view on earnings growth, default risk and market liquidity. The Fund’s duration and spread duration remain below benchmark levels as higher interest rate levels and market volatility are anticipated going forward.

Flexibly Managed Fund
The Penn Series Flexibly Managed Fund returned 18.29% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 28.71% return of its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index for the same time period.
The portfolio posted a positive return but lagged its all-equity S&P 500 Index in the 2021 calendar year. The portfolio’s equity holdings posted a strong positive return but underperformed its S&P 500 Index benchmark. The portfolio’s fixed income holdings posted a positive return during the one-year period, strongly outperforming its benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Index.
Even though the coronavirus pandemic continued, U.S. stocks climbed in 2021, extending the brisk rebound that started in March 2020. Equities advanced as the economy reopened and recovered—facilitated by the rollout of coronavirus vaccines and some federal fiscal relief—and as corporations reported robust earnings growth. Elevated inflation, which stemmed in part from shortages of some goods and materials and global supply chain disruptions; the emergence of variants of the coronavirus; and the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) decision to taper its monthly asset purchases starting in November, were among the factors that occasionally weighed on the financial markets.
As always, we remain committed to finding the best risk-adjusted opportunities across the asset class spectrum to help balance our goals of preserving invested capital and generating equity-like returns over the long term with less risk than the broader equity market.
Our overall fixed income weight reduced slightly over the year. Our largest exposure remains in bank loans, which we think at current levels offer compelling risk-adjusted return profiles. We also like that bank loans are at the top of the capital structure and are the only fixed income asset class that benefits from rising interest rates, so there could be optionality should rates rise over the next few years off of near-historic lows.
Within equities, the information technology sector detracted the most from relative performance, owing primarily to security selection, driven by Global Payments. Shares underperformed on disappointing revenue hampered by economic restrictions related to the pandemic combined with increased investor concern about disruptive competitors in the merchant acquirer space. The consumer discretionary sector also hindered relative performance due to adverse stock choices, such
as Amazon.com. Despite strong results from its cloud and advertising business segments, Amazon.com underperformed on deceleration in its e-commerce business, which faced tough year-over-year comparisons due to the coronavirus. Weak stock selection in industrials and business services also weighed on relative returns, driven by GE. Conversely, health care contributed the most to relative performance, due to stock choices such as Danaher. Shares of the company outperformed on strong revenue growth from its life sciences and diagnostics businesses, as tailwinds from coronavirus-related demand have proven durable. News of its acquisition of Aldevron, a manufacturer of high-quality plasmid DNA, mRNA, and proteins needed for a range of biotechnology and pharmaceutical applications, also contributed to the upside. The communication services sector also aided relative returns due to security picks, such as Alphabet. Shares of the company surged during the year driven by strong performance from its advertising business, owing to higher market expenditure from retail and other businesses.
After back-to-back years of remarkable gains, equity markets face more uncertain prospects in 2022. A protracted period of strong returns has left valuations extended across most market segments, with attractive opportunities harder to come by. We expect earnings growth to slow, particularly as the tailwind from fiscal stimulus fades and monetary policy begins to tighten. The Fed appears set to not only taper asset purchases, but also to end its bond-buying program early and raise rates in the New Year in an effort to curb inflation. Most sectors already face challenging comparables, and, in our view, diminished liquidity and weaker economic activity are likely to contribute to a regression in spending that will weigh on earnings in the intermediate term. We believe risks in the current market are modestly tilted to the downside and have positioned the portfolio accordingly.

Balanced Fund
The Penn Series Balanced Fund returned 15.77% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index’s return of 28.71% and the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index’s return of -1.54% for the same time period.
The Balanced Fund is comprised of a target allocation of 60% to an equity fund and 40% to a fixed income fund. The equity allocation of the Fund is comprised of the Penn Series Index 500 Fund which seeks a total return that corresponds to that of the S&P 500 Index. The fixed income allocation of the Fund consists of an allocation to the Penn Series Quality Bond Fund.
At the broad asset class level, the Balanced Fund’s equity allocation performed inline with its broad equity benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, for the twelve-month period. The Fund’s fixed income allocation outperformed the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index for the same period.
Quality Bond Fund’s yield curve positioning, credit risk positioning and exposure in structured products contributed positively to the performance.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance
Large Growth Stock Fund
The Penn Series Large Growth Stock Fund returned 16.44% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 27.60% return for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index for the same time period.
The portfolio delivered positive returns for the 12 months ended December 31, 2021, but underperformed its benchmark Russell 1000 Growth Index. Overall, stock selection was responsible for relative underperformance. Information technology was the largest relative underperformer, followed by consumer discretionary and communication services. Consumer staples and health care were the major relative contributors.
Even though the coronavirus pandemic continued, major U.S. stock indexes climbed in 2021, extending the brisk rebound that started in March 2020. Many indexes repeatedly reached record highs throughout the year. Equities advanced as the economy reopened and recovered—facilitated by the rollout of coronavirus vaccines and some federal fiscal relief—and as corporations reported robust earnings growth. Elevated inflation, which stemmed in part from shortages of some goods and materials and global supply chain disruptions; the emergence of variants of the coronavirus; and the Federal Reserve’s decision to taper its monthly asset purchases starting in November were among the factors that occasionally weighed on the financial markets.
In information technology, stock choices detracted from relative results. Our underweight position in NVIDIA led to the underperformance. Shares of NVIDIA climbed higher during the year as the company’s data center business showed signs of reacceleration, underpinned by the demand for chips that can support artificial intelligence and deep learning applications. NVIDIA’s state-of-the-art graphics-processing units, combined with its embedded software intellectual property, have created an expanding moat behind which we believe NVIDIA should be able to continue to innovate and grow earnings. Security selection in consumer discretionary also weighed on relative performance, driven by holdings in Amazon.com.
Unfavorable stock choices in communication services hindered relative results. Shares of Snap Inc. sold off during the quarter as results were impacted by a one-two punch: Apple’s iOS platform changes caused a loss of signal for advertisers, and supply chain issues and labor shortages among advertisers weighed on their
ability to support the incremental demand from advertising spend.
In contrast, a lack of exposure to consumer staples benefited relative results as the defensive haven fell out of favor during the past 12 months, with risk-seeking behavior prevailing. The sector generally lacks compelling growth opportunities that meet our investment criteria. An underweight to health care further modestly contributed to relative performance as the largely defensive sector lagged the Index overall. Within the sector, adverse stock selection partially offset the positive impact.
After back-to-back years of strong performance across most equity and credit sectors, global markets face more uncertain prospects in 2022. Investors will need to use greater selectivity to identify potential opportunities. Higher inflation, a shift toward monetary tightening and new coronavirus variants all pose potential challenges for economic growth and earnings—at a time when valuations appear elevated across many asset categories. Many believe that as governments and central banks withdraw the massive stimulus applied during the pandemic, economic growth inevitably will slow sharply. But slower growth does not necessarily mean low growth. A number of tailwinds should sustain the recovery in 2022, including strong consumer and corporate balance sheets.

The Penn Series Large Cap Growth Fund returned 25.85% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 27.60% return for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index for the same time period.
Over the past year, the global economy was buffeted by an array of crosscurrents as it adjusted to the ebbs and flows of the pandemic. Among the supportive currents were ample fiscal stimulus, loose monetary policy and the rollout of several highly effective coronavirus vaccines. Negative currents included the rapid spread of several coronavirus variants, widespread global production bottlenecks and a surge in inflation. After experiencing a burst of exceptionally strong economic activity as the global economy began to reopen, activity became more muted in the second half of the period amid ongoing supply chain disruptions and a new wave of coronavirus infections, albeit a seemingly milder strain.
Amid rising inflation, markets anticipated a transition from an exceptionally accommodative environment to a more mixed monetary landscape ahead. Indeed, several central banks in emerging markets have already tightened policy and the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) reduced the pace of its asset purchases in November and again in December. However, the European Central Bank, the Bank of Japan and the People's Bank of China are expected to maintain accommodative policies. Sovereign bond yields moved modestly higher during the period amid higher inflation and on expectations of a tighter Fed but remain historically low.
A stricter Chinese regulatory environment toward industries such as online gaming, food delivery and education increased market volatility, as has stress in China's highly leveraged property development sector. Trade relations between the United States and China remained quite strained despite a change in presidential administrations.
Signs of excess investor enthusiasm continued to be seen in pockets of the market such as "meme stocks" popular with users of online message boards, cryptocurrencies and heavy retail participation in the market for short-dated options.
Stock selection and, to a lesser extent, an underweight position in the information technology sector weakened performance relative to the Russell 1000 Growth Index.
Within this sector, not holding shares of computer graphics processor maker NVIDIA and the portfolio's overweight position in financial technology services provider Fiserv held back relative returns. Additionally, holding shares of global banking and payment technologies provider Fidelity National Information Services further detracted from relative results.
Stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector also hindered relative performance. Within this sector, holding shares of online and mobile commerce company Alibaba Group Holding and sportswear and sports equipment manufacturer Adidas, and not holding shares of electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla, dampened relative results.
Elsewhere, the portfolio's overweight positions in video game maker Electronic Arts and global consumer products company Colgate-Palmolive, and holding shares of multinational technology conglomerate Tencent and medical technology company Becton, Dickinson and Company, detracted from relative results.
Stock selection and, to a lesser extent, an overweight position in the financials sector contributed to relative returns. Within this sector, holding shares of financial services provider Charles Schwab, the portfolio's overweight position in risk management and human capital consulting services provider Aon and the timing of the portfolio's ownership in shares of global alternative asset manager Blackstone Group helped relative performance.
Stock selection in the industrials sector also bolstered relative performance. However, there were no individual securities within this sector that were among the portfolio’s top relative contributors during the reporting period.
Stocks in other sectors that aided relative performance included not holding shares of internet retailer Amazon.com and digital payment technology developer PayPal and the portfolio's overweight positions in IT servicing firm Accenture, technology company Alphabet, outsourced clinical development services provider PRA Health Sciences and life sciences supply company Thermo Fisher Scientific. Additionally, holding shares of clinical research organization ICON further supported relative performance.

Penn Series Funds, Inc.
Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance
Large Core Growth Fund
The Penn Series Large Core Growth Fund returned -3.94% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 27.60% return for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index for the same time period.
U.S. equity markets saw increased short-term volatility in 2021 but ultimately overcame concerns about new COVID-19 variants, inflation, and fiscal and monetary policy uncertainties to end the year higher. The economic recovery progressed due to easing restrictions and increasing vaccinations, along with support from the federal government’s pandemic relief and accommodative monetary policy. Inflation persisted longer than expected, in part due to pandemic-related supply-side disruptions and labor shortages, leading the U.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks around the world to begin withdrawing monetary stimulus measures. The clarity on monetary policy and early evidence that the highly contagious omicron variant could be less deadly led markets to rally at year-end.
Large-cap growth equities, as measured by the Russell 1000 Growth Index, advanced over the period. All sectors in the Index had positive performance, led by energy. Utilities had the smallest gain and was the largest relative underperformer in the Index.
Counterpoint Global seeks high quality companies, which we define primarily as those with sustainable competitive advantages. We manage concentrated portfolios that are highly differentiated from the benchmark, with securities weighted on our assessment of the quality of the company and our conviction. The value added or detracted in any period of time will result from stock selection, given our philosophy and process.
The long-term investment horizon and conviction-weighted investment approach embraced by the team since 1998 can result in periods of performance deviation from the benchmark and peers. The Fund underperformed the Index in this reporting period largely due to adverse stock selection.
Greater market volatility and a widespread sell-off in high growth and high multiple equities was a significant headwind to Fund performance through much of 2021. We believe the sell-off was driven by a broad rotation out of such names and not due to company-specific fundamentals, which, across most of the Fund, remained largely robust.
The information technology and communication services sectors were the largest detractors from relative performance, primarily due to mixed stock selection. Consumer discretionary, health care, industrials, financials, materials, energy and consumer staples weighed on relative performance to a lesser extent, where either stock selection, relative sector weightings or both detracted across each position. Zero weight allocations to real estate and utilities also detracted slightly from relative performance.
At the sector level, there were no positive contributors for the period. A sector overweight in communication services and a sector underweight in consumer discretionary were modestly advantageous, but gains were more than offset by the underperformance of our stock selection in each sector. Marginally favorable stock selection in consumer staples was outweighed by the negative impact of a sector underweight there.
As a team, we believe having a market outlook can be an anchor. Our focus is on assessing company prospects over a five-year horizon, and owning a portfolio of unique companies whose market value we believe can increase significantly for underlying fundamental reasons.

Large Cap Value Fund
The Penn Series Large Cap Value Fund returned 27.88% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 25.16% return for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index for the same time period.
Global equities recorded double-digit returns and emerging markets lost ground during the 12-month period ended December 31, 2021. Global markets were supported by accommodative monetary policy and strong company earnings growth, while economic turbulence in China, geopolitical risks and inflation pressured emerging markets. Increased market volatility periodically sent risk assets lower, but investors continued to buy the dip. Toward the end of the period, global markets fell as the rapid spread of the coronavirus omicron variant triggered concern that new restrictions could derail the economic recovery. Encouraging developments in COVID-19 treatments and vaccines and a reluctance to reinstate shutdowns helped investors look past the potential impact of the omicron variant. Stock markets gave back gains, however, after the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) took a hawkish pivot and confirmed that it would accelerate the wind-down of its bond purchases and raise rates multiple times in 2022. After digesting the Fed’s comments, equity markets rose as investors appeared to adjust to the shift and remained focused on still generally supportive monetary policy. Growth outperformed value, in terms of style, and large-cap stocks outperformed their small-cap peers.
For the year 2021, the Portfolio rose in absolute terms and outperformed its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index. Stock selection contributed to relative outperformance during the period, while sector selection detracted. Contributions from stock selection within consumer discretionary and industrials outweighed the underperformance from selection within financials and an underweight to energy.
Leading contributors to full-year relative returns included LKQ. The company continues to see revenue acceleration from economic reopening but its cost-management efforts in 2020 have helped to deliver improved profitability as well. CBRE also contributed to relative returns as it continues to see leasing and business services momentum confirmed by the company’s quarterly results. Wells Fargo contributed to relative performance after passing the Federal Reserve’s Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review tests,
allowing for more meaningful capital return and bolstering confidence in the company’s turnaround under new leadership.
Leading detractors from full-year relative returns included Leidos, an engineering and technology services provider for defense, civil and health markets. The company reported earnings that missed expectations throughout the year. FLEETCOR Technologies also detracted from relative returns as the corporate payment business remained weak given persistent pandemic-related headwinds. Comcast detracted from relative performance after reporting weaker broadband subscriber growth than had been expected at a recent analyst day.
The boost from extraordinary monetary and fiscal stimulus is ebbing, but the inflationary pressures sparked by demand spikes and supply shocks have forced the Fed to concede that these pressures are no longer transitory due to base effects. Labor is tight and wages are responding, which, despite the challenges to profit margins and productivity, can help sustain the recovery on Main Street. As always, we believe that inflationary pressures are best managed at the company level. Companies that enjoy pricing power while continuing to invest in their key assets should be better equipped to retain and grow market share as they navigate this volatile transition from early- to mid-cycle. We seek to own attractively valued companies that are good businesses exhibiting signs of improving success. We believe the Fund’s holdings have attractive fundamentals that are consistent with our philosophy—high free-cash-flow yields, low earnings variability and low leverage. These well-managed companies deploy capital wisely, allowing them to grow dividends and enhance the long-term value of their shares.

Large Core Value Fund
The Penn Series Large Core Value Fund returned 24.46% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 25.16% return for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index for the same time period.
In 2021, equity markets delivered robust gains despite the evolution of new and more transmissible strains of the COVID-19 virus and supply chain disruptions driving inflation increases over the period.
On the COVID-19 front, the U.S. benefited from a strong vaccine rollout program during the first half of the year. As investors looked forward to end of pandemic restrictions on work and play, industries that suffered due to the pandemic became the strong performers of 2021, including energy, financials, travel and entertainment. The emergence of the Delta variant, a more contagious stain of the COVID-19 virus, during the second quarter, and then later the Omicron variant during the fourth quarter, tempered investors’ ebullience to some degree as the end of the calendar year neared.
Supply chain disruptions arose during the period, which contributed to elevated inflation levels. Drivers of the disruptions included ramped up demand for goods from pandemic induced lows and surging COVID-19 cases across Asia, resulting in reduced factory and port capacity. From computer chips to shipping containers, scarcities of key items led to temporary factory shutdowns, empty store shelves and rising prices. The U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) announced in the fourth quarter that it would begin tapering its $120 billion in monthly bond purchases that had bolstered the economy throughout the pandemic. The Fed’s actions to tamp down inflation were applauded by investors, with stocks gaining ground after the announcements that tapering would begin and that three rate hikes were forecast for 2022.
Despite the multitude of challenges investors faced in 2021, most equity markets delivered double-digit gains over the period. The S&P 500 Index returned 28.71%, the Russell 2000 Index posted a 14.82% gain, while in international markets, the MSCI EAFE Index notched a 11.26% return. Emerging markets were one of the few areas of weakness, with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index posting a return of -2.54%.
As has been the trend over the last several years, growth stocks once again outperformed their value counterparts, albeit by a smaller margin than in more recent years. The
Russell 1000 Growth Index outperformed the Russell 1000 Value Index, with the respective indices delivering returns of 27.60% and 25.16% respectively.
The Fund delivered strong absolute performance but underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index. Sector allocation results modestly detracted from relative performance, while security selection aided results. All 11 of the economic sectors within the Index registered positive returns, with energy, real estate and financials delivering the strongest results.
Stock selection results were additive across seven of the 11 sectors, with the largest selection gains within communication services, industrials and real estate. Additionally, an overweight exposure to the strong-performing energy sector contributed to relative results. The top relative contributor for the period was an overweight position in hydrocarbon exploration company EOG Resources. Within information technology, the Fund’s position in Alphabet aided relative performance. In the real estate sector, overweight exposures to Mid-America Apartment Communities and EastGroup Properties were contributive. Elsewhere, positions in industrials firm Johnson Controls and materials company Steel Dynamic helped relative performance.
Stock selection results were negative across four of the 11 sectors for the period, with the most challenged selection results within information technology and health care. An overweight exposure to the utilities sector also detracted. Within information technology, the Fund’s positions in Fidelity National Information Services and Cognizant Technology Solutions hurt relative performance. In health care, positions in LHC Group, Neurocrine Biosciences and Medtronic detracted. The Fund’s avoidance of strong-performing Pfizer represented a drag on relative performance. Elsewhere, overweight positions in Walt Disney and Verizon Communications hurt relative results.

Index 500 Fund
The Penn Series Index 500 Fund returned 28.29% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 28.71% return for its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index for the same time period.
The investment objective of the Penn Series Index 500 Fund is to seek a total return (capital appreciation and income) which correspond to that of the S&P 500 Index.
The Fund and Index returns reflect the reinvestment of dividends and other income. The Fund’s performance reflects the expenses of managing the Fund, including brokerage and advisory expenses. The Index is unmanaged and Index returns do not reflect fees and expenses of any kind, which would have a negative impact on returns. As-of flows contributed to the difference between the Fund’s performance and that of the Index.
At the start of 2021, the Democratic Party’s victory in Georgia paved way for further stimulus measures, resulting in the S&P 500 Index gaining 6.17% during the first quarter. In addition, the COVID-19 infection rate continued to trend down and the vaccine rollout accelerated during the period with President Biden raising his vaccination goal from 100 million to 200 million. President Biden also announced a stimulus package worth 9% of U.S. GDP leading to upgrades in consensus forecasts for U.S. growth this year.
In the second quarter of 2021, the S&P 500 Index gained 8.55% as the pandemic was reined in, consumer spending increased, growth stocks rebounded, first-quarter earnings grew strongly and the prospects of fiscal stimulus improved in the context of President Biden concluding a bipartisan deal to boost infrastructure spending by $600 billion.
The S&P 500 Index delivered modest returns of 0.58% in the third quarter of 2021. In the U.S., the economic growth remained strong during the third quarter as the manufacturing and services sector contributed towards the economic progress. The job market improved with approximately 850,000 and 943,000 jobs being added in June and July respectively, which are the largest additions since August 2020.
In the last quarter of the year, President Biden made progress on his infrastructure spending proposals by signing the long-awaited Infrastructure Investment and
Jobs Act, which is a $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill. The bill includes $550 billion of additional spending in order to upgrade roads, bridges and railways and deploy electric vehicle charging stations across the country. The S&P 500 index increased 11.03% during the fourth quarter.
The Fund used S&P 500 Index futures contracts in order to gain exposure to the Index during the reporting period. The Fund’s use of index futures helped the Fund track the Index.
On an individual security level, the top positive contributors to the Fund’s performance during the reporting period were Microsoft Corporation, Apple Inc., and NVIDIA Corporation. The top negative contributors to the Fund’s performance during the reporting period were Walt Disney Company, Global Payments Inc., and PayPal Holdings, Inc.

Mid Cap Growth Fund
The Penn Series Mid Cap Growth Fund returned 16.66% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 12.73% return for its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth Index for the same time period.
For the period, the Fund had strong returns, outperforming its benchmark. Aside from communication services and materials, which experienced a bit of valuation retrenchment in the portfolio from the pull-forward effect of COVID-19, all sectors in the Fund posted positive returns for the fiscal year. The benchmark posted positive returns in all sectors, with the exception of communication services and consumer staples during the reporting period. Sector overweight and underweight allocations compared to the benchmark were a slight detractor to relative performance. Stock selection, as is expected from our bottom-up stock selection strategy, was the primary driver of overall performance compared to the benchmark.
The strongest contribution to relative performance where the Fund had exposure was in healthcare, followed by consumer discretionary, industrials, consumer staples, communication services and information technology. The Fund’s underexposure in utilities contributed to relative performance, as did the cash position.
Information technology remained the largest allocation within the Fund for the reporting period. Healthcare, a relative underweight position to the benchmark, added the most significant relative performance during the period.
Our exposure to materials was the only relative detractor to performance for the period where we had capital allocated. Other detractors to performance were generated from the rebounds in both energy and real estate by way of no holdings in small allocations within the benchmark. Equity options detracted from performance by way of exposure throughout the reporting period to portfolio insurance in lieu of raising excess cash. While there was continued uncertainty throughout the reporting period due to macro disruptions, the market largely shrugged off seemingly stretched valuation levels and thus, the portfolio insurance was not needed.
From a macro perspective, we are concerned with the confluence of inflationary pressures, the potential for
slowing earnings growth, and the seemingly stretched valuations embedded in the current market. As inflation continues to prove to be more fundamental than transitory, we are trying to assess how, when and to what degree interest rates will rise in the United States. Mid-cap stocks have historically performed well in a rising interest rate environment when there is above average gross domestic product growth, much like what we are projected to face in 2022 in the United States. However, a collision course appears to be imminent between rising real interest rates and slowing earnings growth, which the market could weather, were it not for the exuberant valuations levels that we are experiencing at present. As part of our overall strategy, we are mindful of the macro environment as it relates to portfolio construction and the current environment has us focusing much more intently on valuations of individual holdings.
As growth managers, we continue to look for opportunities to invest in companies that have sound capital structures and the ability to grow throughout the business and economic cycle, not because of the cycle. These business models appear to have a product and or service set that is durable, coupled with a capital structure and management team that should allow them to execute competitively in any market environment. We continue to seek opportunities in business and consumer technology, innovation in life sciences, the green energy revolution, and many other areas that we believe should continue to grow, regardless of the economic cycle.
Stock picking is always key to our process and performance but will be paramount in this environment as we seek to manage valuation risk in the portfolio, while investing in durable, secular growth companies.

Mid Cap Value Fund
The Penn Series Mid Cap Value Fund returned 19.27% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 28.34% return for its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index for the same time period.
Stocks rose in the first half of 2021, as healthy economic and earnings growth and optimism around COVID-19 vaccines lifted investor sentiment. Accommodative monetary policy also supported the growth outlook. Stocks suffered downward volatility in the third quarter as the spread of the new Delta variant renewed pandemic concerns. Supply constraints and higher input costs also fueled inflation, which pushed interest rates higher. While rising interest rates initially favored value stocks, in the mid-cap market they underperformed growth for the quarter overall. In the fourth quarter, the identification of another highly transmissible COVID-19 variant, Omicron, contributed to market turbulence. The Federal Reserve (Fed) also indicated it would accelerate the withdrawal of its monetary stimulus. The prospect of higher interest rates in 2022 triggered a market rotation away from more speculative, high-valuation stocks and a move into value stocks, which outperformed growth in the fourth quarter.
The Portfolio delivered positive returns but underperformed its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index, for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2021. Stock selection in industrials, financials and information technology detracted from relative performance, while selection in health care and utilities and an underweight in consumer staples contributed.
BWX Technologies, a supplier of nuclear components and fuel for the defense industry, was the Portfolio’s largest individual detractor on a relative basis. Over the period it faced continued uncertainty regarding the outlook for government defense spending, and the stock declined as the company reported disappointing revenue and profits growth. Relative performance also was dampened by our investment in Global Payments, a provider of financial technology that helps retailers process digital credit card payments. The stock was pressured by concerns that "buy now, pay later" alternatives may take market share away from traditional credit cards.
LabCorp, the leading global life sciences company, was the largest individual contributor over the year. The company outperformed due to continued strength in COVID-19 testing, non-COVID laboratory work –
particularly its expanded testing, treatment and clinical trial access for people with cancer – and activist involvement in the stock. Equity LifeStyle Properties, an owner and operator of manufactured housing communities and vacation sites, was also a top contributor, benefiting from the increased popularity of RV vacation parks as tourist destinations since the start of the pandemic.
While we have welcomed a renewed investor focus on fundamentals, we see potential sources of market risk as we head into 2022. The economic expansion appears to be on track, but higher input costs, supply chain bottlenecks and labor shortages could remain headwinds for growth and company profitability. From a historical perspective, valuations in some parts of the market still appear expensive and out of line with company fundamentals. The Fed also has a difficult task, dialing back its stimulus enough to contain inflation without derailing the economic recovery or market expansion. This task is further complicated by uncertainty around COVID-19 variants and global economic pressures. Higher inflation could push the Fed and other central banks to act more aggressively to slow the economy, which would result in higher interest rates and the potential for increased market volatility. Despite broader market risks, we believe this environment could work to our advantage. Periods of rising interest rates historically have favored value and higher-quality stocks over growth equities. We also believe market volatility could provide us with ample value opportunities, as we look to invest in companies whose potential may have yet to be fully appreciated by the market.

Mid Core Value Fund
The Penn Series Mid Core Value Fund returned 23.13% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 28.34% return for its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index for the same time period.
Broad U.S. equity markets delivered strong returns in 2021, buoyed by expanding vaccine availability, federal aid, positive economic news and strong corporate earnings reports. Stocks experienced some volatility throughout the year, due to the emergence of the delta and omicron variants of the coronavirus, supply chain constraints, inflation concerns and labor shortages.
Mid-cap stocks as measured by the Russell family of indices outperformed small caps but underperformed large caps. Value stocks outperformed growth within the mid-cap market.
Stock selection in materials hindered relative performance. Higher materials costs pressured container and packaging holdings such as Sonoco Products. A lack of exposure to metals and mining also dampened relative returns.
Security selection in financials weighed on relative returns against a backdrop of strong equity markets and continued reopenings. Our preference for higher-quality banks and our investments in insurance dampened performance. Not owning companies in the consumer finance industry also detracted.
Select holdings in the machinery and electrical equipment industries benefited performance. Electrical product provider nVent Electric was a top performer.
Medical device company, Zimmer Biomet Holdings, underperformed following strong performances in the second half of 2020, when elective surgeries began to be allowed during the pandemic. With the omicron surge late in the year, elective surgeries were delayed further by many providers. Pinnacle West Capital, Arizona-based utility, underperformed due to regulatory overhangs surrounding its pending general rate case in Arizona. While the Arizona Corporation Commission delivered a disappointing final determination on the case in early November, the stock rallied at the end of the year. Weak earnings in Universal Health Services management company’s behavioral health segment pressured shares. COVID-19 has caused a psychiatric nurse shortage, limiting Universal’s ability to fill beds and meet high
demand. However, we think this issue is transitory and the risk/reward profile remains attractive.
Exploration and production company, ConocoPhillips, outperformed due in part to its continued strong execution. During the third quarter, it unveiled what we think is an attractive 10-year financial plan and announced an attractively priced acquisition of assets from a competitor. The stock also benefited from stronger commodity prices. Electrical products provider nVent Electric, delivered strong results, executing well on pricing and productivity. We believe nVent has growing earnings power, supported by an end-market recovery and stronger demand for industrial products. Shares of Advance Auto Parts, a retailer of automotive aftermarket replacement parts, outperformed due to better-than-expected demand trends.
The portfolio seeks to invest in companies where we believe the valuation does not reflect the quality and normal earnings power of the company. Our process is based on individual security selection, but broad themes have emerged.
Easy monetary policy and generous fiscal spending have buoyed the market since mid-2020. Confident investors have been willing to take on risks, including bidding up the prices of lower-quality companies at the greatest risk from the economic downturn. We think this behavior has created an opportunity for investors who focus on overlooked higher-quality businesses. In the months ahead, we believe investors will assess risk more prudently as stimulus fades, economic growth moderates and interest rates and inflation rise. In our view, this creates an opening for quality-focused investors because certain high-quality stocks are now trading at a large discount to low-quality stocks, based on our analysis.
We believe long-term demographic trends support demand for companies in the health care sector. Through our bottom-up process, we are finding quality companies with attractive risk/reward profiles, particularly in the health care providers and services and health care equipment and supplies industries. We maintain a significant position in Zimmer Biomet Holdings. Over the last two years, the company has faced significant COVID-19 disruption, leading to a high patient backlog. We think this backlog should decline over time and result in a limited impact on its normalized earnings power.
The portfolio remains overweight in consumer staples. Despite a challenging environment from a cost inflation perspective, many consumer staples companies are

generating strong returns on capital, buying back stock and growing dividends. Moreover, industry consolidation over time has enabled the companies to pass cost increases to consumers. We believe actions to offset inflation, including fewer promotions and price increases, should support earnings and margins. The sector has underperformed significantly since the market bottom in 2020. Some consumer staples companies were not direct beneficiaries of the reopening and are perceived relative losers in an inflationary environment. We think these conditions are temporary and can lead to outperformance.
Our portfolio remains overweight in the financials sector, where we have identified higher-quality companies selling at attractive valuations. Our financials positions include holdings in the banking, capital markets and insurance industries. In the fourth quarter, we reduced or eliminated our positions in several individual holdings as their valuations moved higher, while also selectively adding to existing positions in companies with attractive risk/reward profiles.
The extended valuation of real estate stocks has led to a continued underweight position in the sector. While we are underweight the information technology sector, we have found select stocks that meet our investment criteria.

SMID Cap Growth Fund
The Penn Series SMID Cap Growth Fund returned 7.73% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 5.04% return for its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Growth Index for the same time period.
In 2021, the Fund outperformed the Russell 2500 Growth Index. Stock selection in the health care and information technology sectors contributed to returns, while holdings in consumer staples and an underweight to real estate detracted from performance.
Power storage company, Generac Holdings, Inc., was a top contributor to returns in 2021. Extreme weather events, such as those in Texas, spurred demand for generators and energy storage. Generac Holdings demonstrated its ability to grow the top line and execute accretive acquisitions during the year, driving the stock higher. We sold out of the position as the market cap became too big for the portfolio, allocating proceeds of the sale to better risk-reward opportunities elsewhere in the portfolio. Life sciences diagnostics company, PerkinElmer, Inc., was also a top contributor during the year. The stock’s strength was broadly due to the company’s exposure to COVID-19 testing and its PCR test’s accuracy despite the emergence of the Omicron variant. We continue to like this company, as a greater share of its revenue is recurring and its business mix shifts toward life sciences segments.
Vertex, Inc., a tax compliance software provider, detracted from returns. The market reacted negatively to consistently conservative guidance and to an increasingly difficult competitive environment. While we liked the stock and saw room for revenue and earnings growth, we sold out of the position in the second quarter, as we do not expect this stock to experience sufficient multiple expansion in the foreseeable future. Pet food company Freshpet, Inc. also detracted from performance. The stock’s weakness can largely be attributed to management commentary and lowered guidance related to supply chain issues. While input cost pressures may be a headwind in the short term, we believe the secular growth tailwinds driving Freshpet sales remain intact, and we expect earnings to grow and margins to expand over time.
The end of 2021 was cast with the development of the Omicron variant. We expect this to remain a major focus of the market in the first quarter of 2022, as entities around the world continue to navigate pockets of outbreaks and implement responses accordingly. Other
major themes such as the acceleration in the Federal Reserve’s winding down of its asset purchasing program and interest rate hikes, inflation readings, supply chain issues, and the global energy shortage may test the market again. The unclear future of the social spending bill will also be in play in 2022. We will stay true to our quality-first investment approach and seek to invest in businesses with healthy balance sheets, relatively stable cash flows, and differentiated business models aligned to secular tailwinds. We continue to test our models and re-evaluate our assumptions with increasing information, remain focused on the long-term investment horizon, and believe this fundamental approach will generate excess return in the long run for our clients.

The Penn Series SMID Cap Value Fund returned 35.58% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 27.78% return for its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Value Index for the same time period.
Global markets were supported by accommodative monetary policy and strong company earnings growth, while economic turbulence in China, geopolitical risks and inflation pressured emerging markets. Increased market volatility periodically sent risk assets lower, but investors continued to buy the dip. Toward the end of the period, global markets fell as the rapid spread of the coronavirus omicron variant triggered concern that new restrictions could derail the economic recovery.
The Portfolio rose in absolute terms and outperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Value Index, for the 12-month period. Security selection in consumer discretionary contributed, while selection in energy detracted. An underweight to healthcare contributed, while an underweight to energy detracted.
Textbook and education technology company Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH) rose after agreeing to sell its HMH Books & Media trade publishing business for $349 million. Shares of ON Semiconductor rose on continued outperformance that began in early 2020. Management reported 3Q21 results exemplified by notable margin improvement, driven by an exit from lower profitability contracts combined with cyclically strong pricing.
Nomad Foods, a European manufacturer of frozen foods underperformed as end-market volumes declined after strong pandemic-driven increases in 2020. The Portfolio does not hold any shares in GameStop, and this lack of exposure detracted over the 12-month period as the stock was driven up by speculative fervor.
In 2021, value stocks enjoyed better performance relative to growth than any point over the past five years. We believe that the main driver of this stronger performance was and remains earnings growth. Investors’ view that the recession would destroy value profits was shown to be wrong, and they proved more resilient and grew dramatically faster than expected. Despite better performance, the valuation discount of value stocks relative to growth remains among the largest since the tech bubble. We continue to believe that the key to value closing this gap, in 2022 and beyond, will lie in sustained strong earnings and cash-flow growth. Investors remain
anxious. They see four obstacles to earnings growth for value stocks and remain concerned about the continuing effects of the pandemic, the severity of supply-chain disruptions, the impact of inflation and what the new normal will look like. Further challenges for companies relate to the environmental, social and governance (ESG) behaviors with companies likely focusing on improving their scores across a number of metrics. Value companies that wish to grow earnings and close the valuation gap with their growth peers will have to navigate each of these challenges. We remain convinced that the most interesting opportunities exist in companies that combine attractive free-cash-flow-based valuation, compelling company or niche industry catalysts, strong quality and a proactive approach to ESG issues.

Small Cap Growth Fund
The Penn Series Small Cap Growth Fund returned 8.70% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 2.83% return for its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index for the same time period.
Small-cap stocks rose in the first half of 2021, as healthy economic and earnings growth and optimism around COVID-19 vaccines lifted investor sentiment. Accommodative monetary also supported the growth outlook. Stocks suffered downward volatility in the third quarter of 2021 as the spread of the new Delta variant led to renewed pandemic concerns. Supply constraints and higher input costs also fueled inflation, which pushed interest rates higher. In the fourth quarter, the identification of another highly transmissible COVID-19 variant, Omicron, contributed to market turbulence. The Federal Reserve (Fed) also indicated it would accelerate the withdrawal of its monetary stimulus. The prospect of higher interest rates in 2022 spurred a market rotation away from more speculative, high valuation growth stocks in the fourth quarter. Against this backdrop, the Russell 2000 Growth Index underperformed the broader mid-cap equity market for the 12-month period.
For the 12 months ending December 31, 2021, the Portfolio delivered positive returns and outperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index. Stock selection in health care and industrials contributed to relative performance. Stock selection in consumer discretionary and consumer staples detracted.
We were encouraged to see a number of our moderate-growth companies rewarded during the period. These included ON Semiconductor, a leading global supplier of advanced semiconductors. The company has benefited from strong demand and pricing trends supporting high-growth areas such as electric vehicles and automation. It has also streamlined its cost structure under the guidance of a disciplined new management team.
Saia was another contributor. This less-than-truckload trucking company has benefited from strong demand and pricing trends, which supported its earnings performance. Many of its competitors have gone out of business in recent years, which has strengthened Saia’s competitive positioning and pricing power. It has also opened terminals in new locations to build out its transport network, helping it to better compete with regional and national carriers.
QuantumScape was a notable detractor. It is developing a next-generation, solid-state battery that could potentially allow electric vehicles to charge faster and travel farther. We invested in the company in 2020, and the stock initially rose on investor excitement over this potential game-changing technology. Following this run-up, we significantly reduced our position in light of the high stock valuation and the long time frame to commercialization. Unfortunately, our small position was affected by a pullback in the stock price, as excitement over this large potential opportunity was tempered by the reality of the manufacturing hurdles the company will need to overcome. It could be several years before the company sees any significant revenue acceleration. We continued to hold a small position in QuantumScape due to the large, long-term opportunity of its revolutionary technology potentially reaching commercialization.
Eargo, another detractor, is a disruptor in the hearing aid market. It sells hearing aids directly to consumers, charging substantially less than people would pay ordering through their audiologist. Eargo’s patented, aesthetically pleasing designs helped it gain market share relative to traditional hearing aids. Despite positive business trends, the stock sold off sharply on news that Eargo’s insurance billing practices were under investigation. Given uncertainty around this situation, we opted to exit the position.
We have been encouraged by signs we may be returning to an environment in which investors reward profitable companies with high returns on invested capital. At the same time, we recognize that the tug-of-war between high-growth pandemic beneficiaries and real-world stocks could continue in the short term as investors await more clarity on such issues as the outlook for the pandemic and the timing of Fed interest rate moves. We also recognize that the above-average market returns of the past few years may be hard to sustain in 2022. While interest rates remain low from a historic standpoint, they will likely move higher as the Fed withdraws its policy support. Companies face other sources of uncertainty, including supply chain bottlenecks, labor shortages and inflation pressures. International factors, including developments in China and tensions over Ukraine, could also impact the market. Despite these sources of uncertainty, we believe we will continue to find attractive investment opportunities that meet our qualifications. We continue to seek out disciplined, well-managed and reasonably valued growth companies with track records of innovation and profitability. We also favor companies with established supplier relationships and strong competitive positioning that may help them pass along

Small Cap Value Fund
The Penn Series Small Cap Value Fund returned 26.67% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 28.27% return for its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index for the same time period.
In 2021, the Fund underperformed the Russell 2000 Value Index. Stock selection in the financials and consumer discretionary sectors detracted from performance, while holdings in the health care and industrials sectors contributed to returns.
Novavax, Inc., a developer of vaccines for infectious diseases, was a top detractor during the year. We initiated a position in the company following the announcement of strong efficacy data for its COVID-19 vaccine. We later sold our position as the fast-evolving regulatory, supply chain, and competitor dynamics of the industry proved a challenge for the company. Ovintiv, Inc., an oil and gas company, was also a top detractor over the one-year period. We initiated a position in the third quarter of 2021, as the company has benefited from the rally in commodity prices. We are optimistic on Ovintiv, as we believe sustainable free cash flows and continued de-levering of the balance sheet can drive return of capital to shareholders.
Herc Holdings, an equipment rental supplier, was a top contributor in 2021. In July, Herc Holdings announced strong second quarter earnings, which included top and bottom line beats and optimistic commentary from management. The stock’s upward moves continued on the back of the company’s investor day in September, as the market reacted favorably to new strategic initiatives and capital allocation plans. We exited our position in Herc Holdings in the fourth quarter following continued outperformance, and deployed the proceeds to what we felt were better opportunities elsewhere. Zurn Water Solutions was also a top contributor to returns during the year. The market reacted favorably to the announced combination of Rexnord’s Process & Motion Control Business with Regal Beloit, in which Rexnord retained its water management business as a standalone called Zurn Water Solutions Corp. The deal closed in early October 2021 and the standalone high growth water management business re-rated higher. We continue to like Zurn Water Solutions going forward, as the water management business was Rexnord’s highest growth segment and has higher growth and margins than other pure water plays.
The end of 2021 was cast with the development of the Omicron variant. We expect this to remain a major focus
of the market in the first quarter of 2022, as entities around the world continue to navigate pockets of outbreaks and implement responses accordingly.

The Index is unmanaged and Index returns do not reflect fees and expenses of any kind, which would have a negative impact on returns. The cumulative effect of small weighting differences between the securities and the currencies in the Fund and the Index contributed to the difference between the Portfolio’s performance and that of the Index.
The Fund had positive performance in 2021. Despite the negative impact from multiple COVID-19 variants and inflation fears, positive performance was driven mostly by earnings growth, fiscal and monetary policy and the distribution of vaccines in response to the global pandemic. The first and second quarter of 2021 had positive performance due to vaccine rollouts, falling infection rates and the announcement of a stimulus package. Third quarter performance was negative on the back of ongoing supply chain issues and inflation worries even with the reopening of the economy. Performance in the fourth quarter was positive with the passage of a bipartisan infrastructure bill and strong earnings growth despite ongoing supply chain bottlenecks, hawkish sentiment from the Federal Reserve and the emergence of a new COVID-19 variant.
The Fund used Russell 2000 Index futures contracts in order to gain exposure to the Index during the reporting period. The Fund’s use of index futures helped the Fund track the Index.
On an individual security level, the top positive contributors to the Fund’s performance during the reporting period were GameStop Corp. Class A, Avis Budget Group, Inc., and Synaptics Incorporated. The top negative contributors to the Fund’s performance during the reporting period were Allakos, Inc., BridgeBio Pharma, Inc., and Invitae Corp.

Developed International Index Fund
The Penn Series Developed International Index Fund returned 10.54% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 11.26% return for its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index for the same time period.
The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to replicate the returns and characteristics of an international index comprised of securities from developed countries.
The Fund and Index returns reflect the reinvestment of dividends and other income. The Fund’s performance reflects the expenses of managing the Fund, including brokerage and advisory expenses. The Index is unmanaged and Index returns do not reflect fees and expenses of any kind, which would have a negative impact on returns. The cumulative effect of small weighting differences between the securities and the currencies in the Fund and the Index contributed to the difference between the Portfolio’s performance and that of the Index.
The Fund had positive performance in 2021. The MSCI EAFE Index gained almost 9% over the first six months of the year, as much of the developed world experienced economic recovery. Widespread COVID-19 vaccine availability and distribution, along with initiatives throughout Europe and Asia collectively contributed to the Index’s success. During the first quarter, the UK developed a £65 billion stimulus package and Japan approved a relatively large budget equivalent to $1 trillion to kickstart their respective economies. Following those plans, the second quarter brought recovery funding approvals for many European countries including Portugal, Spain and Greece. The second half of the year saw a more modest, but positive return of 2.24%. The third quarter produced a small dip in the Index of -0.45% as supply chain disruptions and the unfortunate reality of a new COVID-19 variant emerged. As the year closed, however, the Index righted the ship thanks to strong earnings announcements and healthy holiday spending.
The Fund used MSCI EAFE Index futures contracts in order to gain exposure to the Index during the reporting period. The Fund’s use of index futures helped the Fund track the Index.
On an individual security level, the top positive contributors to the Fund’s performance during the reporting period were Nestle S.A., Novo Nordisk A/S Class B and ASML Holding NV. The top negative contributors to the Fund’s performance during the reporting period were SoftBank Group Corp., AIA Group Limited and M3, Inc.

International Equity Fund
The Penn Series International Equity Fund returned 12.23% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 7.82% return for its benchmark, the MSCI ACWI ex U.S. Index for the same time period.
Stocks that helped absolute performance included Constellation Software. Reporting strong 3Q2021 results, the stock followed the outperformance of technology stocks during the fourth quarter. Constellation Software is a Canadian based company specializing in vertical market solutions – back office/operational software in a wide range of verticals such as health care, law and public transit. Nestle was another top contributor that helped absolute performance. Nestle reported better than expected 3Q2021 growth and announced a trimming of its stake in L’Oreal and will use the proceeds for a buyback. Nestle is one of the largest food companies in the world with a vast product and geographic sales mix. Another holding that helped absolute performance was Diageo, a global leader in alcoholic beverages. Diageo, whose principal activity is manufacturing and distributing spirits and beer, held a Capital Markets Day where it increased its mid-term guidance.
Stocks that hurt absolute performance included CAE, a global leader in flying simulators and training for both commercial and military aircrafts. The company reported disappointing results on the defense segment during the third quarter because of limited access to customers' site due to Covid-19. Also, the outbreak of Omicron had a negative impact on air travel related stocks, including CAE. Flutter Entertainment, the largest global online betting platform, also hurt absolute performance. During the third quarter earnings report in November, Flutter guided down 2021’s EBITDA range by 5% due to non-recurring unexpected events (i.e. adverse sporting outcomes and a sudden change in Dutch regulation) and a deliberate downward management of UK online stakes in anticipation of upcoming regulation on online stakes. Lastly, Yum China (YUMC), the leading fast-food chain of KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut within China, was another holding that hurt absolute performance. YUMC shares have been weighed by the spread of Omicron in China which is expected to result in restaurant traffic declines.
Markets continued to weigh positive economic growth and earnings recoveries from COVID-19 with the future economic impact of the new Omicron variant, further
regulatory crackdowns by the Chinese government and a slowing real estate sector in China, as well as a backdrop of more demanding valuations.
In buoyant markets, investors may be ignoring risks hiding in plain sight, such as high government debt, rising wages and inflation and supply chain issues. This could result in increased volatility and diverging company performance.
The merits of business models that can outperform against difficult backdrops are often underappreciated. For example, payments group Mastercard enjoys low capital intensity and high margins. It offers a degree of inflation protection by taking a percentage of value transacted and is positioned to capture changes in consumer spending. Another example is UK-based Rentokil, which should continue to see resilient growth thanks to its “essential” pest control services and can be a beneficiary of consolidation.
It takes time to diversify supply chains. One example is Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, which is building capacity in Japan that will be ready in 2024. We believe companies that are less exposed to disruptions in supply chains, such as software and service-oriented companies, should perform better in the current environment, as will businesses that possess pricing power.
Gas shortages in Europe, along with rising commodity prices, are largely due to political decisions. In the energy transition, renewables are not yet able to meet the continent’s needs. Manufacturing and utilities will be hardest hit by rising costs and European consumers may not be prepared to pay higher prices for goods and energy.
EM currencies, excluding China’s renminbi, are the cheapest they have been since 2014, while current account deficits are in a better place than when we last saw tapering in key markets, such as India. Emerging markets stocks are trading at attractive valuations relative to developed market peers, underscoring the long-term opportunity of the emerging markets asset class.
The U.S. market has outperformed international over the last decade, but there have been periods in the past when international equities outperformed. International stocks can help U.S. investors diversify currency risk and provide diversification across sectors as some of the

Emerging Markets Equity Fund
The Penn Series Emerging Markets Equity Fund returned -5.69% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the -2.54% return for its benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index for the same time period.
Stocks that helped absolute performance included SK hynix, a leader in the memory semiconductor space. SK hynix reported record high third quarter sales/profits during its October quarterly results and shared a high conviction for strong chip demand in 4Q21. Its U.S. competitor, Micron, also reported strong quarterly results and shared positive guidance. The company is seeing early signs of a stabilization in demand from PC customers. End-demand from the solid growth drivers remains intact across end markets, particularly in datacenter, 5G smartphones and auto/industrial. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), a Taiwanese logic chip maker, was another top contributor to absolute performance. TSMC has outgrown the global semiconductor market by an average of nine percentage points over the last 20 years. Semiconductor cycle and peak margins have been a key market concern recently due to rising capital expenditure spend. However, TSMC’s customers are willing to pay more for the value that TSMC delivers. Hence, the company expects long-term gross margins to achieve 50% or higher. Despite end-market softness for PC and smartphone, TSMC remains confident that its capacity will remain tight throughout 2022. ChaCha Food, a Chinese snack food maker, was another contributor that helped absolute performance. ChaCha is the leading player in roasted seeds, commanding roughly 40% market share. It is also the leading player in nuts, known for its high quality, fresh products and differentiated flavors. The company has seen solid volume growth continuing for its core seeds business and additionally has demonstrated strong pricing power after putting through 8-18% price increases.
Stocks that hurt absolute performance included Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba. In November, Alibaba reported quarterly results that fell short of consensus expectations. Total revenue grew 29% year-on-year, 3% below expectations while EBITDA declined 27%, missing consensus by 13%, in part due to a step-up in investment in new areas. Additionally, Alibaba has been subsidizing merchants during this weaker economic period. Management lowered its FY22 revenue growth guidance to +20-23% (from +30%) seeing a more challenging
macroeconomic environment and increased competition. Yum China (YUMC), leading fast-food chain in China, was another holding that hurt absolute performance. YUMC shares have been weighed by the spread of Omicron in China, which is expected to result in restaurant traffic declines. YUMC has the exclusive right to operate and sublicense KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell in China. Hindustan Unilever (HUL), the largest fast-moving consumer goods company in India, was another holding that hurt absolute performance. HUL traded down after reporting earnings in October due to missing consensus EPS estimates. Also, Nielsen in India pointed to a slowdown in rural consumptions during the quarter. While HUL did not experience a slowdown in their rural business, the Nielsen report increased investor hesitancy. Though the company missed consensus estimates, we believe HUL continues to benefit from the recovery in Indian consumer spending and are managing the key input cost inflation occurring across the country by leveraging their pricing power.
Select emerging markets are poised for an economic rebound. In general, emerging markets central banks have not stimulated as much as developed markets. Some emerging markets central banks have raised interest rates quickly to combat sharp increases in inflation. Brazil has been among the most aggressive in this regard, which could negatively impact its GDP growth in 2022. Inflation is picking up in India and Indonesia, but monetary policy there has been more supportive, particularly in India, and interest rate rises are likely to be gradual. Both countries are coming off periods of weak credit growth and relatively slow economic growth, even before COVID-19. We see a lot of pent-up demand on the credit side and potential for a strong economic recovery this year.
Emerging markets currencies, excluding China’s renminbi, are the cheapest they have been since 2014, while current account deficits are in a better place in key markets like India and Indonesia. Emerging markets stocks are trading at attractive valuations (12x 2022 forecast earnings vs 18x for developed market stocks), underscoring the long-term opportunity of the emerging markets asset class.
The speed and rate of regulatory action in China took markets by surprise. Some measures reflect Beijing’s concern about social issues, such as the price of education and minors playing online games. We approach China with caution and are avoiding sectors that may be under a longer-term cloud. Regulation on e-commerce, however, shows China catching up with

developed markets, and intervention could level the playing field for some companies such as JD.com, China’s second largest B2C online platform after Alibaba. The consumer staples space is less affected. For example, ChaCha Food is able to pursue volume growth and expansion opportunities with strong pricing coming through, and stationery maker Shanghai M&G has room for consolidation.
Retail investors in China have pushed up valuations of some stocks, particularly A-shares, although there are select quality names that are trading at reasonable valuations. As fundamental long-term investors, we can take advantage of this volatility by focusing on companies with leading industry positions and good volume growth that are taking market share.

Real Estate Securities Fund
The Penn Series Real Estate Securities Fund returned 42.70% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to the 41.30% return for its benchmark, the FTSE NAREIT All Equity REITs Index for the same time period.
U.S. real estate securities had a sizable gain in the year, as they continued to rally from their lows in early 2020. Progress in vaccine distribution allowed certain regions to begin lifting restrictions on public gatherings, business activities and travel, notwithstanding some fits and starts as new virus variants emerged. Economic reopenings and additional fiscal relief led to increasing activity, generating stronger demand for real estate. Supply growth in many property sectors slowed amid labor shortages and rising construction costs, giving landlords greater pricing power to negotiate rents. Borrowing costs for many public real estate companies remained near historical lows. These positive conditions drove improving investor optimism, resulting in lower cap rates (higher property values) and higher earnings multiples.
Returns were positive for all property types. Top performers included regional mall owners, aided by a strong recovery in retail fundamentals. Self storage, which had been one of the more resilient sectors through the pandemic, continued to see strong demand amid continued moving activity, driving rates for new customers up significantly from 2020 levels. Apartments also outperformed. Leasing trends for apartments in U.S. coastal markets have bounced back quickly, and Sunbelt markets remained exceptionally strong, fueled by strong housing demand. Office companies advanced but trailed the Index amid an uncertain demand outlook due to work-from-home trends.
The portfolio had a positive total return for the year and outperformed its benchmark. Factors that helped relative performance included our overweight in regional malls, specifically Simon Property Group, an owner of Class A properties that gained more than 90% in the year. Our overweight in the self storage sector also aided performance, as did stock selection in the diversified sector, where we had a beneficial out-of-index position in Jones Lang LaSalle. Stock selection in the data centers sector aided performance as well, due mostly to our overweight in CyrusOne, which outperformed. Our underweight in the office sector further helped performance.
Factors that detracted from relative performance included stock selection in the industrial sector. Our underweight in Prologis, which reflects our view on its relative valuation, detracted. Prologis continued to benefit from the widespread demand for warehouse and logistics facilities. Stock selection in apartments also hindered performance; we were underweight Mid-America Communities, which was a top performer in the sector.
Real estate market activity is strong, and construction starts in many sectors have been delayed by labor shortages and higher costs for building materials, reducing supply pressures. Long-term cash flow growth prospects are above average, and earnings estimates and asset values are rising. While a strengthening economy has led to greater inflation and has caused the market to price in interest rate hikes, we believe REITs are well positioned to tolerate an eventual increase in rates. A strong economic backdrop should lead to higher demand for many real estate property types, allowing landlords to raise rents. Meanwhile, REITs continue to offer attractive levels of income relative to traditional asset classes, and the “new-economy normal” could create sector opportunities for the next several years.
In terms of notable sector positioning, we are overweight hotels, with a preference for the regional gaming business, which is driven by consumers rather than corporate demand or air travel. Within retail, our allocation is concentrated in companies with high-quality assets that we believe may be long-term winners. Our substantial overweight in health care reflects our positive outlook for life science and senior housing properties. Self storage is also among our larger sector overweights given improving demand due to increased moving activity.

Aggressive Allocation Fund
The Penn Series Aggressive Allocation Fund returned 16.42% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2021, compared to its benchmarks, the Russell 3000 Index’s return of 25.66% and the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index’s return of -1.54% for the same time period.
The Aggressive Allocation Fund is comprised of a target allocation of 90% equity funds and 10% fixed income funds. The equity allocation of the Fund is comprised of domestic equity funds ranging from large capitalization funds to small capitalization funds as well as developed international and emerging markets equity funds and the fixed income portion is primarily allocated to intermediate-term and short-term bond funds.
The asset allocation of the Aggressive Allocation Fund contributed negatively to its performance. During the period, the Fund’s allocation to large cap value stocks, small cap growth stocks, mid cap growth stocks, emerging markets and international equities underperformed the Russell 3000 Index. The allocation in large cap growth stocks, small cap value stocks, mid cap value stocks and REITs generated positive asset allocation performance. On the fixed income side, allocation to high yield bonds and short-term bonds contributed positively to performance.
Fund selection of the Aggressive Allocation Fund contributed negatively to its performance. During the period, our managers for the Penn Series Large Cap Value, Mid Cap Growth, SMID Cap Growth, SMID Cap Value, Small Cap Growth, Flexibly Managed and International Equity Funds outperformed their respective benchmark by more than 2%, while the Penn Series Large Growth Stock, Mid Core Value, Mid Cap Value and Emerging Markets Equity Funds underperformed their respective benchmarks by more than 2%. On the fixed income side, Penn Series Limited Maturity Bond outperformed its benchmark and the Penn Series High Yield Bond Fund underperformed its benchmark.
Looking ahead, interest rate policy is expected to tighten in response to rising inflation. The market is currently predicting three rate hikes throughout the course of 2022, along with the end of quantitative easing. We will continually review the Fund to help ensure that it remains consistent with its investment objective by making adjustments, when necessary.

Important Information about Fund Expenses
Hypothetical Examples of a $1,000 Investment (Unaudited)
We believe that it is important for you to understand the effect of fees on your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a participant in any of the Penn Series Funds, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund. A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio.
The Penn Series Funds are the underlying investment vehicles for the variable life and variable annuity contracts issued by The Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company and its subsidiary, The Penn Insurance and Annuity Company. These contracts have transaction costs, additional administrative expense fees and mortality and expense risk charges. Because of these additional expenses, the costs to investors will be higher than the figures shown in the following expense examples. The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in each fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for six months beginning July 1, 2021 and held through December 31, 2021. The examples illustrate your fund’s costs in two ways:
Actual Fund Performance in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. The “Ending Value” shown is derived from the fund’s actual return, and “Expenses Paid During Period” shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, 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 given for your fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
Hypothetical 5% Annual Return is intended to help you compare your fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a return of 5% before expenses during the period shown, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case — because the return used is not the fund’s actual return — the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s cost by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholders reports of other funds. Because the return used is not an actual return, it may not be used to estimate the actual ending account value or expenses you paid for the period.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are only meant to highlight and help you compare your ongoing costs of investing in the funds and do not reflect any fees and charges deducted under your insurance contract. The “Annualized Expense Ratio” represents the actual expenses for the six-month period indicated and will be different from the expense ratio in the Financial Highlights which is for the year ended December 31, 2021.

High Yield Bond Fund

See Security Valuation Note.
@ Security exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. At December 31, 2021, the aggregate value of Rule 144A securities was $116,144,705, which represents 68.5% of the Fund’s net assets.
Variable rate security. The rate disclosed is the rate in effect on the report date. The information in parenthesis represents the benchmark and reference rate for each relevant security and the rate floats based upon the reference rate and spread. The security may be further subject to interest rate floors and caps. For loan agreements, the rate shown may represent a weighted average interest rate. Certain variable rate securities are not based on a published reference rate and spread, but are determined by the issuer or agent and are based on current market conditions, or, for mortgage-backed securities, are impacted by the individual mortgages which are paying off over time. These securities do not indicate a reference rate and spread in their descriptions.
(1) The value of this security was determined using significant unobservable inputs and is reported as a Level 3 security in the Valuation Hierarchy table located at the end of the Schedule of Investments.
* Non-income producing security.
µ Perpetual security with no stated maturity date.
Loan Agreements in which the Fund invests generally pay interest at rates which are periodically predetermined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. These base lending rates are generally (i) the Prime Rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks, (ii) the lending rate offered by one or more European banks such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or (iii) the Certificate of Deposit rate. Rate shown represents the actual rate at December 31, 2021. Loan Agreements, while exempt from registration under the Security Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), contain certain restrictions on resale and cannot be sold publicly. Floating rate Loan Agreements often require repayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturity shown.

(1) The value of this security was determined using significant unobservable inputs and is reported as a Level 3 security in the Valuation Hierarchy table located at the end of the Schedule of Investments.
µ Perpetual security with no stated maturity date.
Loan Agreements in which the Fund invests generally pay interest at rates which are periodically predetermined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. These base lending rates are generally (i) the Prime Rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks, (ii) the lending rate offered by one or more European banks such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or (iii) the Certificate of Deposit rate. Rate shown represents the actual rate at December 31, 2021. Loan Agreements, while exempt from registration under the Security Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), contain certain restrictions on resale and cannot be sold publicly. Floating rate Loan Agreements often require repayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturity shown.
Variable rate security. The rate disclosed is the rate in effect on the report date. The information in parenthesis represents the benchmark and reference rate for each relevant security and the rate floats based upon the reference rate and spread. The security may be further subject to interest rate floors and caps. For loan agreements, the rate shown may represent a weighted average interest rate. Certain variable rate securities are not based on a published reference rate and spread, but are determined by the issuer or agent and are based on current market conditions, or, for mortgage-backed securities, are impacted by the individual mortgages which are paying off over time. These securities do not indicate a reference rate and spread in their descriptions.
× This loan will settle after December 31, 2021, at which time the interest rate, based on the LIBOR and the agreed upon spread on trade date, will be reflected.

(1) Other financial instruments are derivative instruments not reflected in the value of total investments in securities in the Schedule of Investments such as future contracts and forward foreign currency contracts which are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the instrument and written options which are reported at their fair value at period end.
^ A reconciliation of Level 3 instruments is presented when the Fund has a significant amount of Level 3 investments at the beginning and/or end of the period in relation to the net assets. Management has concluded that Level 3 investments are not material in relation to net assets.
It is the Fund's practice to recognize transfers into and transfers out of Level 3 at the fair value hierarchy as of the beginning of period.
An amount of $12,125,700 was transferred from Level 2 into Level 3 at 12/31/2021 due to decrease in trading activities at period end.

(1) Other financial instruments are derivative instruments not reflected in the value of total investments in securities in the Schedule of Investments such as future contracts and forward foreign currency contracts which are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the instrument.
It is the Fund's practice to recognize transfers into and transfers out of Level 3 at the fair value hierarchy as of the beginning of period. An amount of $0 was transferred from Level 2 into Level 3 at December 31, 2021 due to decrease in trading activities at period end.

1 The net investment income (loss) per share was calculated using the average shares outstanding method.
2 Total investment return is based on the change in net asset value of a share during the period and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions at net asset value. Total returns do not reflect expenses associated with variable contracts such as administrative fees, account charges and surrender charges, which if reflected would reduce the total returns for all periods presented. Total returns may reflect adjustments to conform with generally accepted accounting principles.
3 The ratio includes expenses waived/reimbursed net of amount recaptured and fees paid indirectly, where applicable; if expenses waived/ reimbursed net of amount recaptured and fees paid indirectly were excluded, the ratio would have been higher (lower), respectively, than the ratio shown.
4 The ratio excludes expenses waived/reimbursed net of amount recaptured and fees paid indirectly, where applicable; if expenses waived/ reimbursed net of amount recaptured and fees paid indirectly were included, the ratio would have been lower than the ratio shown.
(a) Less than one penny per share.

1 The net investment income (loss) per share was calculated using the average shares outstanding method.
2 Total investment return is based on the change in net asset value of a share during the period and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions at net asset value. Total returns do not reflect expenses associated with variable contracts such as administrative fees, account charges and surrender charges, which if reflected would reduce the total returns for all periods presented. Total returns may reflect adjustments to conform with generally accepted accounting principles.
3 The Fund also will indirectly bear its prorated share of expenses of the underlying funds. Such expenses are not included in the calculation of this ratio.

Fund of Funds (“FOFs”) – Each Penn Series FOF seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in other Penn Series Funds (“Underlying Funds”) and uses asset allocation strategies to determine how much to invest in the Underlying Funds. Each of the following is a Penn Series FOFs: Balanced, Aggressive Allocation, Moderately Aggressive Allocation, Moderate Allocation, Moderately Conservative Allocation and Conservative Allocation Funds.
2 —  Significant Accounting Policies
The following significant accounting policies are followed by Penn Series in the preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be material. The Funds are investment companies and follow the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 946.
Security Valuation:
Money Market Fund — Investments in securities are valued using the amortized cost method as permitted by Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which involves initially valuing investments at cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any premium or discount. This method approximates market value.
Limited Maturity Bond, Quality Bond, High Yield Bond, Flexibly Managed, Large Growth Stock, Large Cap Growth, Large Core Growth, Large Cap Value, Large Core Value, Index 500, Mid Cap Growth, Mid Cap Value, Mid Core Value, SMID Cap Growth, SMID Cap Value, Small Cap Growth, Small Cap Value, Small Cap Index, Developed International Index, International Equity, Emerging Markets Equity, Real Estate Securities Funds — Portfolio securities listed on a securities exchange or an automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available, including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the principal exchange or market on which they are traded on the valuation date or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent quoted bid price. Securities valued according to these valuation methods are categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy described below. Debt and fixed income securities are valued by recognized independent third-party valuation services, employing valuation methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-dealer supplied valuations, and matrix pricing. Matrix pricing for corporate bonds, floating rate notes, municipal securities and U.S. government and government agency obligations considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type and, for asset backed securities, commercial mortgage securities and U.S. government agency mortgage securities, also considers prepayment speed assumptions and attributes and performance of the underlying collateral. Securities valued according to these valuation methods are generally categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy described below. To the extent that bid prices are provided by the pricing service, the Funds will use the bid price. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates as of the valuation date.
220



Penn Series Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements — December 31, 2021

Options are valued at the last traded price on the market where such options are principally traded or, if there was no trade on such day, at the last bid quote. Futures contracts are valued at the last settlement price on the market where such futures contracts are principally traded. Although derivatives may be subject to netting provisions, as discussed further in Note 7, derivatives held are valued at their gross amounts.
To assess the continuing appropriateness of third-party pricing service security valuations, Penn Mutual Asset Management, LLC (“PMAM” or the “Adviser”), the investment adviser to each of the Funds, or the Fund’s sub-adviser, as applicable, or the fund accounting service provider, who is subject to oversight by the Administrator, regularly monitor the prices and compare prices to alternate sources where applicable. Price challenges are issued for valuation differences exceeding certain tolerances or when considered not reflective of the market by the Adviser or sub-adviser, as applicable.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value prices determined using methods approved by the Penn Series Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”). The Penn Series Valuation Committee (the “Valuation Committee”), established by and subject to oversight by the Board of Directors, monitors pricing related policies and procedures and approves all fair value determinations. The Valuation Committee consists of representatives from PMAM and Penn Mutual, the administrator to the Funds (the “Administrator”). The Valuation Committee regularly makes good faith judgments, using sources and information obtained, including recommendations and supporting rationales and inputs from the Adviser or the applicable sub-adviser, to establish and /or adjust fair valuations of securities as events occur and circumstances warrant. The information and inputs may include but are not limited to cost of the security, last sale price, private transaction trading prices, comparable publicly traded security prices, discount rates, publicly disclosed news stories and regulatory filings, estimated cash flows and yield curves. As part of its procedures, the Valuation Committee monitors the fair valued securities, considers additional news or significant developments relative to the specific security, reviews the valuations with the Adviser or respective sub-adviser on a regular basis and applies back testing procedures to valuations as applicable. Reasons for which securities may be valued in this manner include, but are not limited to, trading on an exchange for a security has been halted, suspended or has not begun, a security has been de-listed from a national exchange, trading on a security’s primary market is temporarily closed at a time when, under normal conditions, it would be open, or valuation by a third party pricing service is currently not available or is no longer available.
Certain events may occur between the time that foreign markets close, on which securities held by the Fund principally trade, and the time at which the Fund’s NAV is calculated. These securities are valued at a fair value utilizing an independent third party valuation service in accordance with procedures adopted by the Fund’s Board of Directors. The methodology and procedures followed by the valuation service consider the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as ADRs, financial futures, ETFs, and certain indexes as well as prices for similar securities. Securities valued using such valuation service are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as these adjustment factors are considered other observable inputs to the valuation. Values from the valuation service are applied in the event that there is a movement in the U.S. market that exceeds a specific threshold that has been established by the Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee has also established a “confidence interval”, which is used to determine the level of historical correlation between the value of a specific foreign security and movements in the U.S. market before a particular security will be fair valued when the threshold is exceeded. In the event that the threshold established by the Valuation Committee is exceeded on a specific day, the Funds shall value the non-U.S. securities in their portfolios that exceed the applicable “confidence interval” based upon the adjusted prices provided by the fair valuation service.
The determination of a security’s fair value price often involves the consideration of a number of subjective factors, and is therefore subject to the unavoidable risk that the value assigned to a security may be higher or lower than the security’s value would be if a reliable market quotation for the security was readily available.
Balanced, Aggressive Allocation, Moderately Aggressive Allocation, Moderate Allocation, Moderately Conservative Allocation and Conservative Allocation Funds — The valuation of each Fund’s investment in its Underlying Funds is based on the net asset values of the Underlying Funds each business day.
Fair value measurements are determined within a framework that has established a fair value hierarchy based upon the various data inputs utilized in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset. Inputs may be observable or unobservable.
221



Penn Series Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements — December 31, 2021

Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability 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 asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. These inputs are summarized into three broad levels 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, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
Level 3 items at December 31, 2021 consist of $22,523,988 and $2,665,136 of equities in the Flexibly Managed Fund and Large Growth Stock Fund, respectively which were not publicly trading. The unobservable inputs used in valuing these securities include new rounds of financing, negotiated transactions of significant size between other investors in the company, relevant market valuations of peer companies and strategic events affecting the company. Significant increases (decreases) in the valuation indicated by the new rounds of financing, valuations observed through negotiated transactions between other investors in the company or changes in the market valuation of relevant peer companies would result in directionally similar changes to the fair value. Fair value determinations are reviewed and updated on a regular basis and as information becomes available, including actual purchase and sale transactions of the issue. For certain loan agreements where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and are categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Foreign Currency Translation The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: market value of investment securities, assets and liabilities at the current rate of exchange; purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
The Funds do not isolate the portion of realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments which is due to changes in the foreign exchange rate from that which is due to changes in market prices of all securities. Such fluctuations are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of U.S. dollar denominated transactions as a result of, among other factors, the level of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets and the possibility of political or economic instability.
Loan Agreements Certain Funds may invest in loan agreements, also known as bank loans, which represent an interest in amounts owed by a borrower to a syndication of lenders. Bank loans may involve multiple loans with the same borrower under a single credit agreement (each loan, a tranche), and each tranche may have different terms and associated risks. A bank or other financial institution typically acts as the agent and administers a bank loan in accordance with the associated credit agreement. Bank loans are generally noninvestment grade and often involve borrowers whose financial condition is troubled or uncertain and companies that are highly leveraged. The Funds may buy and sell bank loans in the form of either loan assignments or loan participations. A loan assignment transfers all legal, beneficial, and economic rights to the buyer. Although loan assignments continue to be administered by the agent, the buyer acquires direct rights against the borrower. In many cases, a loan assignment requires the consent of both the borrower and the agent. In contrast, a loan participation generally entitles the buyer to receive the cash flows from principal, interest, and any fee payments that the seller is entitled to receive from the borrower; however, the seller continues to hold legal title to the loan. As a result, with loan participations, the buyer generally has no right to enforce compliance with terms of the credit agreement against the borrower, and the buyer is subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the seller. Bank loans often have extended settlement periods, during which the Fund is subject to nonperformance by the counterparty.
Private Investments Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies Special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) are shell companies that have no operations but are formed to raise capital with the intention of merging with or acquiring a company with the proceeds of the SPAC’s initial public offering (IPO). Certain Funds may acquire equity
222



Penn Series Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements — December 31, 2021

securitites of an issuer that are issued through a private investment in public equity (PIPE), including on a when-issued basis. PIPE transactions typically involve the purchase of securities directly from a publicly traded company or its affiliates in a private placement transaction, typically at a discount to the market price of the issuer’s common equity. Purchased PIPE shares will be restricted from trading until the registration statement for the shares is declared effective. Upon registration, the shares can be freely sold; however, in certain circumstances, the issuer may have the right to temporarily suspend trading of the shares in the first year after the merger or acquisition. The securities issued by a SPAC may be considered illiquid, more difficult to value, and/or be subject to restrictions on resale. PIPE are valued based upon valuations of the underlying SPACs.
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is accrued as earned. Discounts and premiums on debt and fixed income securities are accreted and amortized using the effective interest method. Premiums on callable debt securities are amortized to interest income to the earliest call date using the effective interest method. The cost of investment securities sold is determined by using the specific identification method for both financial reporting and income tax purposes. Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are directly charged. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of each Fund and do not include any expenses associated with the Underlying Funds of the FOFs. Other expenses attributable to the Funds are allocated in accordance with methodologies, which are reviewed with the Board of Directors no less than annually.
Dividends to Shareholders Except for the Money Market Fund, all or a portion of each Fund’s undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized gain on investment and foreign exchange transactions, if any, at December 31, 2021 were deemed distributed as consent dividends to each respective Fund’s shareholders in place of regular distributions. As consent dividends, shareholders of each Fund agree to treat their share of undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized gain on investment and foreign exchange transactions, if any, at December 31, 2021, respectively, as dividend income and net capital gains for tax purposes. In the case of the Money Market Fund, dividends paid from undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized gain on investments are declared daily and paid monthly.
Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains recorded in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. To the extent that these differences are permanent, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require such reclassification. Distributions from net realized gains may involve short-term capital gains, which are included as ordinary income for tax purposes.
The character of distributions received from Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) held by a Fund is generally comprised of net investment income, capital gains, and return of capital. It is the policy of the Funds to estimate the character of distributions received from the underlying REITs based on historical data provided by the REITs.
Foreign Capital Gains Taxes The International Equity Fund and Emerging Markets Equity Fund accrue capital gains tax on unrealized and realized gains for certain securities of issuers domiciled in India. At December 31, 2021, the Funds had accrued capital gains taxes of $385,196 and $587,612, respectively, which is reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the International Equity Fund and Emerging Markets Equity Fund had realized capital gains tax expense of $456,829 and $314,852, respectively, which is reflected in the Net realized gain (loss) on Investments line item in the Statement of Operations.

Effective September 10, 2009, Penn Series, on behalf of its Money Market Fund, PMAM, and Penn Mutual, entered into an agreement whereby PMAM and Penn Mutual may temporarily and voluntarily waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in excess of their current fee waiver and expense reimbursement commitments in an effort to maintain a minimum net distribution yield for the Money Market Fund. Under the agreement, PMAM and Penn Mutual may, subject to certain minimum yield criteria, as well as a prospective three-year reimbursement period, recapture from the Money Market Fund any fees or expenses waived and/or reimbursed under this arrangement. These reimbursement payments by the Fund to PMAM and/or Penn Mutual are considered “extraordinary expenses” and are not subject to any net operating expense limitations in effect at the time of such payment. This recapture could negatively affect the Fund’s future yield.
If, at the end of each month, there is no liability of PMAM and Penn Mutual to pay the Funds such excess amount, and if payments of the advisory fee or administrative and corporate services fee at the end of prior months during the preceding three fiscal years have been reduced in excess of that required to maintain expenses within the expense

limitation, such excess reduction is eligible to be recaptured by PMAM and Penn Mutual and, if recaptured, would become payable by the Funds to PMAM and Penn Mutual along with the advisory fee or administrative and corporate services fee for that month, as applicable. Penn Mutual and/or PMAM’s election not to recapture the amount of any reduction and reimbursement to which it is entitled in no way impairs the rights of Penn Mutual and/or PMAM to subsequently recapture such amount, provided that such amount remains eligible for recapture and would not cause the Fund to exceed its expense limit for that fee payment period.
As of December 31, 2021, the Money Market Fund waived and/or reimbursed administrative and corporate services fees that are subject to potential recapture by PMAM and Penn Mutual through the periods stated below. If not recaptured, the waiver and/or reimbursed administrative and corporate services fees will expire according to the table below:

6 — Federal Income Taxes
Each Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code for federal income tax purposes. As such, each Fund is required to distribute all investment company taxable income and net capital gains, if any, to its shareholders in order to avoid the imposition of entity-level federal, state, and local income taxes as well as an entity-level excise tax. Except for the Money Market Fund, to the extent any Fund had undistributed investment company taxable income and net capital gains at December 31, 2021, such undistributed investment company taxable income and net capital gains were deemed distributed as consent dividends in place of regular distributions. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal, state, or local income and excise taxes.
On December 22, 2010, The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law. The Act amended several tax rules impacting the Funds. Some highlights of the enacted provisions are as follows:
The Act allows for capital losses occurring in the taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 (“post-enactment losses”) to be carried forward indefinitely. However, the Act requires any future gains to be first offset by post-enactment losses before using capital losses incurred in the taxable years beginning prior to the effective date of the Act (“pre-enactment losses”). As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment loss carryforwards have an increased likelihood to expire unused. Furthermore, post-enactment losses will retain their character as either long-term capital losses or short-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term capital losses as under previous law.
The Act provides that a RIC may elect for any taxable year to treat any portion of any qualified late-year loss for such taxable year as arising on the first day of the following taxable year. The term “qualified late-year loss” means any post-October capital loss and any late-year ordinary loss.
The Act also contains simplification provisions, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests.
Reclassification of Capital Accounts:
Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined under U.S. GAAP. These book/ tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to paid-in capital or accumulated net realized gain or net investment income, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise. Accordingly, the following permanent differences as of December 31, 2021, primarily attributable to consent dividends, were reclassed between the following accounts:

The differences between book basis and tax basis appreciation are primarily due to wash sales, Passive Foreign Investment Companies, Partnership Investments, Trust Preferred Securities, real estate investment trust adjustments, and the treatment of certain corporate actions.
It is each Fund’s policy to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code under Subchapter M, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision is made for federal income taxes.
Management of the Funds has reviewed tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by all major tax jurisdictions, including federal (i.e., the last four tax year ends and the interim tax period since then, as applicable). Management believes that there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken.
7 — Derivative Financial Instruments
The Funds may trade derivative financial instruments in the normal course of investing activities to assist in managing exposure to market risks such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. These financial instruments include purchase options, written options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts.
The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Funds have in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
Futures ContractsA futures contract is a standardized contract between two parties to buy or sell a specified asset at a specified future date at a price agreed today (the future price). The party agreeing to buy the underlying asset in the future assumes a long position. The price is determined by the instantaneous equilibrium between the forces of supply and demand among competing buy and sell orders on the exchange at the time of the purchase or sale of the contract.
To the extent permitted by the investment objective, restrictions and policies set forth in the Funds’ Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, the Funds may participate in various derivative-based transactions. The Index 500, Developed International Index and Small Cap Index Funds employ futures to maintain market exposure and otherwise assist in attempting to replicate the performance of their respective indices. These derivatives offer unique characteristics and risks that assist the Funds in meeting their investment objectives. The Funds typically use derivatives in two ways: cash equitization and return enhancement. Cash equitization is a technique that may be used by the Funds through the use of futures contracts to earn “market-like” returns with the Funds’ excess and liquidity reserve cash balances and receivables. Return enhancement can be accomplished through the use of derivatives in the Funds. By purchasing these instruments, the Funds may more effectively achieve the desired fund characteristics that assist in meeting the Funds’ investment objectives.
Futures contracts involve a number of risks, such as possible default by the counterparty to the transaction, credit risk with respect to initial and variation margins held in a brokerage account, market movement and the potential of greater loss than if these techniques had not been used by a Fund. These investments can also increase the Fund’s share price and expose the Fund to significant additional costs.
The Limited Maturity Bond, Quality Bond, Index 500, Small Cap Index and Developed International Index Funds have entered into futures contracts during the year ended December 31, 2021. Open futures contracts held by the

Penn Series Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements — December 31, 2021

Limited Maturity Bond, Quality Bond, Index 500, Small Cap Index and Developed International Index Funds at December 31, 2021 are listed after the Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
OptionsAn option establishes a contract between two parties concerning the buying or selling of an asset at a reference price. The buyer of the option gains the right, but not the obligation, to engage in some specific transaction on the asset, while the seller incurs the obligation to fulfill the transaction if so requested by the buyer. The price of an option derives from the difference between the reference price and the value of the underlying asset plus a premium based on the time remaining until the expiration of the option. The Funds may buy and sell options, or write options.
Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the option is traded. The difference between the premium received or paid, and market value of the option, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. The net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation is reported in the Statements of Operations. When an option is exercised, the cost of the security purchased or the proceeds of the security sale are adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. Upon the expiration or closing of the option transaction, a gain or loss is reported in the Statements of Operations.
The Flexibly Managed and Mid Cap Growth Funds received premiums for options written. The risk in writing a call option is that the Funds give up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Funds may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Funds pay a premium whether or not the option is exercised. The Funds also have the additional risk that there may be an illiquid market where the Funds are unable to close the contract.
The total market value of written options held in the Flexibly Managed Fund as of December 31, 2021 can be found on the Schedule of Investments.
Forward Foreign Currency ContractsA forward currency contract involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date, which may be any number of days from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. These contracts are traded directly between currency traders and their customers. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by each Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed or offset with the same counterparty, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the change in the value of the contract when it was opened and the value at the time it was closed or offset.
The Mid Core Value Fund entered into forward currency contracts in conjunction with the planned purchase or sale of foreign denominated securities in order to hedge the U.S. dollar cost or proceeds. The Fund hedged currencies in times of base currency weakness in order to reduce the volatility of returns for the local securities which the Fund owns.
Foreign forward currency contracts involve a number of risks, including the possibility of default by the counterparty to the transaction and, to the extent the portfolio manager’s judgment as to certain market movements is incorrect, the risk of losses that are greater than if the investment technique had not been used. For example, there may be an imperfect correlation between the Fund’s portfolio holdings of securities denominated in a particular currency and the forward contracts entered into by the Fund. An imperfect correlation of this type may prevent the Fund from achieving the intended hedge or expose the Fund to the risk of currency exchange loss. These investment techniques also tend to limit any potential gain that might result from an increase in the value of the hedged position. These investments can also increase the volatility of the Fund’s share price and expose the Fund to significant additional costs. The forward foreign currency contracts outstanding are listed after the Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

In order to better define their contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Funds mitigate their counterparty risk, the Funds may participate in International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements (“ISDA Master Agreement” or “ISDA”) with derivative contract counterparties or enter into similar agreements covering foreign exchange contracts (“Fx Letters”). An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs over-the-counter (“OTC”) traded derivatives and foreign exchange contracts and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, a Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instrument’s payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default (closeout netting) including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. Also, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events. An Fx Letter is also a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty and is limited to cover only foreign exchange contracts. Fx Letters typically contain netting provisions covering events of default and do not require collateral to be posted. ISDAs and Fx Letters containing netting provisions may be referred to as Master Netting Agreements (“MNA”).
Collateral and margin requirements differ by type of derivative. Margin requirements are established by the broker for OTC traded derivatives or by the clearing house for exchange traded derivatives. Brokers can ask for margining in excess of the minimum in certain circumstances. Collateral terms are contract specific for OTC derivatives (foreign currency exchange contracts and options). For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark to market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by a Fund and the counterparty. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a party has to exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer has to be made. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. The Fund attempts to mitigate counterparty risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that it believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.

8 — Credit and Market Risk
Recently, the global pandemic outbreak of an infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19 has resulted in substantial market volatility and global business disruption, impacting the global economy and the financial health of individual companies in significant and unforeseen ways. The duration and future impact of COVID-19 are currently unknown, which may exacerbate other types of risks that apply to the Funds and negatively impact Fund performance.
241



Penn Series Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements — December 31, 2021

The Funds may invest a portion of their assets in illiquid securities, which may include securities with contractual restrictions on resale, securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other securities which may not be readily marketable. The relative illiquidity of these securities may impair the Funds’ ability to dispose of them in a timely manner and at a fair price when it is necessary or preferable to do so.
The high yield securities in which the High Yield Bond Fund may invest are predominantly speculative as to the issuer’s continuing ability to meet principal and interest payments. The value of the lower quality securities in which the High Yield Bond Fund may invest will be affected by the credit worthiness of individual issuers, general economic and specific industry conditions, and will fluctuate inversely with changes in interest rates. In addition, the secondary trading market for lower quality bonds may be less active and less liquid than the trading market for higher quality bonds.
The High Yield Bond, Flexibly Managed, Large Core Growth, Mid Core Value, Small Cap Growth, Developed International Index, International Equity and the Emerging Markets Equity Funds invest in securities of foreign issuers in various countries. These investments may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United States, as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of future political and economic developments and the level of governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets in the respective countries.
Investment in privately placed securities may be less liquid than in publicly traded securities. Although these securities may be resold in privately negotiated transactions, the prices realized from these sales could be less than those originally paid by the Funds or less than what may be considered the fair value of such securities. Further, companies whose securities are not publicly traded may not be subject to the disclosure and other investor protection requirements that might be applicable if their securities were publicly traded.
9 —  Contractual Obligations
In the general course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnification. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, management of the Funds expects the risk of loss to be remote.
10 — Recent Accounting Pronoucements and Reporting Updates
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 (“ASU 2020-04”), Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)—Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 provides optional temporary financial reporting relief from the effect of certain types of contract modifications due to the planned discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank-offered based reference rates as of the end of 2021. ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying ASU 2020-04.
Management is also actively working with other financial institutions and counterparties to modify contracts as required by applicable regulation and within the regulatory deadlines.
11 —  Subsequent Events
Except as disclosed below, Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Funds through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that no additional subsequent events require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
Effective upon the open of markets on January 1, 2022, Ms. Eileen McDonnell retired as an “interested” (as that term is defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940) Director of the Penn Series Funds, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Board of Directors (the “Board”). Effective January 1, 2022, Mr. David O’Malley was appointed to the Board as an “interested” Director. In addition, effective January 1, 2022, Mr. Keith Huckerby has assumed the role of President of the Company.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders of the Funds and Board of Directors
Penn Series Funds, Inc.:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Penn Series Funds, Inc., comprised of the Money Market Fund, Limited Maturity Bond Fund, Quality Bond Fund, High Yield Bond Fund, Flexibly Managed Fund, Balanced Fund, Large Growth Stock Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund, Large Core Growth Fund, Large Cap Value Fund, Large Core Value Fund, Index 500 Fund, Mid Cap Growth Fund, Mid Cap Value Fund, Mid Core Value Fund, SMID Cap Growth Fund, SMID Cap Value Fund, Small Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Value Fund, Small Cap Index Fund, Developed International Index Fund, International Equity Fund, Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Real Estate Securities Fund, Aggressive Allocation Fund, Moderately Aggressive Allocation Fund, Moderate Allocation Fund, Moderately Conservative Allocation Fund, and Conservative Allocation Fund (collectively, the Funds), including the schedules of investments, as of December 31, 2021, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the related notes (collectively, the financial statements) and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of December 31, 2021, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. 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 Funds 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 audits 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. Such procedures also included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent, underlying companies, agent banks and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures when replies were not received. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more Penn Series Funds, Inc. investment companies since 2004.
