Meridian Growth Fund
Portfolio Performance and Composition (Unaudited)

Market Overview
Although stronger economic growth, positive earnings news, and new corporate tax-cut legislation propelled stocks higher during the period, rising interest rates, geopolitical tensions, and the threat of increased trade barriers fueled market volatility. Despite the volatility, stocks delivered solid returns across most segments of the market. In fact, within the Russell 2500 Growth Index, every sector advanced, with information technology and healthcare leading the way. Sectors with the smallest gains included materials, which was weaker due to recently instituted tariffs, and real estate, which was pressured by rising interest rates.
As U.S. inflation inched its way toward the Federal Reserve’s stated inflation target of 2%, Fed policymakers raised short-term interest rates on three separate occasions during the period. Policymakers stated that two more rate hikes will likely follow before year end.
Our most striking observation over the past year was the dramatic outperformance of growth stocks versus their value peers. Based on the Russell family of indices, small cap growth outperformed small cap value by 990 basis points, and large cap growth outperformed large cap value by 1,570 basis points.

Fund Performance
For the twelve months ended June 30, 2018, the Meridian Growth Fund Legacy Class shares returned 20.14%, underperforming its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Growth Index, which gained 21.53%.
Our investment process prioritizes the management of risk over the opportunity for return, with the goal of building an all-weather portfolio that can perform in a variety of market conditions. Although volatility in 2017 was virtually nonexistent, we are encouraged by what we have seen so far in 2018. During the first six months of the year, there were nine days in which the Russell 2500 Growth Index declined greater than 2%. The Meridian Growth Fund outperformed the Index on all nine of these days, delivering better than 80% downside protection on average.
The Fund’s underperformance during the period was driven primarily by an underweight position in the information technology sector, the benchmark’s top-performing sector. Other notable detractors included industrials holdings, which struggled amid escalating tensions between the U.S. and major trading partners, and energy holdings, which declined despite rising oil prices. Conversely, our investments in the healthcare sector bolstered relative returns, particularly pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and life sciences holdings. An underweight position in the weak-performing materials sector further lifted results, as materials stocks lagged the broader index due to recently instituted tariffs.
The three largest contributors to the Fund’s performance during the period were TriNet Group, Inc. (TNET), LPL Financial Holdings, Inc. (LPLA), and ServiceMaster Global Holdings, Inc. (SERV).
TriNet Group, Inc. (TNET) is a cloud-based professional employer organization (PEO) servicing small and medium-sized businesses in the United States. We believe the company’s significant investment in technology and new products over the past year will allow it to continue to differentiate itself within the marketplace and increase market share. We expect the company to begin increasing contracted on-site employees now that these investments are behind it. Over the past year, TriNet has continued to grow earnings and revenue at a healthy pace, benefiting from benign health and workers’ compensation claims, past price increases, and a sizeable decline in the company’s tax rate. With the business firing on all cylinders, we maintain a positive outlook for the company. TriNet was our largest position at the end of the period despite our decision to trim the stock as it appreciated.
LPL Financial Holdings, Inc. (LPLA) is a leading financial services provider to independent advisors and RIAs. LPL continues to benefit as the industry moves away from commission-based accounts to fee-based accounts which generate more recurring revenue and higher profits. The company has also benefited from rising interest rates, a strong market backdrop, and a benign regulatory environment over the past year. We scaled back our position as the stock gained, but remain invested, as we believe expectations for additional rate increases will bode well for the stock.
ServiceMaster Global Holdings, Inc. (SERV) operates a pest control business under the Terminix brand and a home appliance warranties business under the American Home Shield brand. Both business segments offer

Portfolio Performance and Composition (Unaudited) (continued)
  nondiscretionary services that are generally immune to economic downturns. This, along with a fragmented competitive landscape, enables ServiceMaster to routinely raise prices. During the period, the company announced plans to spin off its American Home Shield business and hired a new CEO, which sent shares higher. We trimmed our position as the stock appreciated but remain confident in the long-term potential of this company.
The three largest detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period were Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. (SBH), Switch, Inc. (SWCH), and Evolent Health (EVH).
Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. (SBH) is a specialty distributor and retailer of beauty products to salons and consumers worldwide. We like this company for its long track record of consistent and strong earnings growth and its promising international opportunities. A decline in same-store sales pressured the stock during the period. Declining traffic to Sally’s strip mall locations and weather-related disturbances were the main culprits for the declining same store sales. More recently, the company announced plans to implement new loyalty and e-commerce initiatives aimed at increasing store traffic and sales. While we believe these initiatives will be positive over the long-term, they could create near-term disruptions. Nonetheless, Sally Beauty continues to grow earnings, reduce operating costs, and generate solid free cash flow. In addition, management plans to allocate more cash to reducing leverage, which we view as a positive. Sally Beauty is smaller position in the Fund today compared to a year ago as we balance an attractive valuation with high leverage and near-term risks around the roll-out of a new loyalty program.
Switch, Inc. (SWCH) is a technology infrastructure ecosystem corporation whose core business is the design, construction, and operation of data centers. The proprietary design of its data centers features a patented cooling system and unmatched uptime statistics which give Switch a cost advantage versus its competitors. Although Switch reported double-digit revenue growth in its most recent quarter, EBITDA declined versus last year and results missed analysts’ expectations. The company’s new focus on securing larger deals with customers is extending sales cycles and pressuring near-term revenue growth. Although we are disappointed in Switch’s performance, we continue to believe in the long-term growth potential of the company as it continues to increase capacity utilization across its hyper-scale data centers. We increased our position during the period.
Evolent Health, Inc. (EVH) develops proprietary software and services that enable health providers to migrate from fee-for-service reimbursement to value-based payment models. We invested in this company due to its success in developing partnerships with accountable care organizations (ACOs) to help reengineer their operations to provide coordinated health care at a lower cost to patients. Evolent’s stock fell on news that it agreed to acquire Premier Health, a network of hospitals and health care providers in Ohio and a customer of Evolent’s. We viewed the deal with Premier Health as an unexpected change in Evolent’s strategy and were also concerned with the slower-than-expected pace of adoption among clients incorporating Evolent’s payment model. We consequently liquidated our position in the stock.

Outlook
Small and mid cap indices continued their upward advance with the market entering its 10th year in bull market territory. We continue to have a favorable economic outlook as the robust job market has led to rising labor force participation, improving wages, and higher consumer confidence. In addition, the overall business climate remains very healthy with recently enacted tax reform spurring investment and high business confidence. Against this backdrop, we expect growth and overall profits to remain solid. However, our enthusiasm is tempered in part by the current valuation of the overall equity markets. Valuations more fully reflect the positive underlying fundamentals of the current environment, particularly within the technology and healthcare sectors. We continue to employ a risk-first approach that should enable us to deliver solid outperformance during most market corrections. As a result, we have trimmed and sold many of our more dynamic, higher growth companies that we believe are priced to perfection and vulnerable to a market pullback. This has led to an underweight position in the healthcare and technology sectors. Offsetting this underweight, we have continued to find attractive opportunities in the industrial sector, especially within the commercial and professional services industry group, as well as select opportunities within the consumer sector.
The Federal Reserve has continued its normalization process by shrinking its balance sheet and increasing interest rates. Given the health of the economy and rising inflationary pressures, we believe the Fed will continue to increase rates. We are

monitoring rising trade tensions and tariff implementations closely and worry that an escalating trade war could accelerate overall inflationary pressures and the pace at which the Fed pursues its normalization process. The result of this would likely be increased volatility and a pullback in the overall market, two outcomes that would likely be good for our strategy. Through the first half of 2018, we are encouraged to see a trend toward more typical volatility as measured by the number of days that the benchmark declines greater than 2%. While corrections can be unnerving, they allow us to execute on the Fund’s downside protection goal while positioning the Fund to achieve its upside participation target as we add companies that are poised to outperform when the market rebounds.
Thank you for your continued investment in Meridian Growth Fund.

Market Overview
Although stronger economic growth, positive earnings news, and new corporate tax-cut legislation propelled stocks higher during the period, rising interest rates, geopolitical tensions, and the threat of increased trade barriers fueled market volatility. Despite the volatility, stocks delivered solid returns across most segments of the market. In fact, within the Russell 2500 Index, all sectors experienced a gain with information technology delivering the strongest performance.
As U.S. inflation inched its way toward the Federal Reserve’s stated inflation target of 2%, Fed policymakers raised short-term interest rates on three separate occasions during the period. Policymakers stated that two more rate hikes will likely follow before year end.
Investors continued to demonstrate a preference for large-cap stocks, which outperformed mid-caps and small caps during the period, as measured by the Russell family of indices. Meanwhile, growth stocks outperformed value across all capitalization ranges.

Fund Performance
For the twelve months ended June 30, 2018, the Meridian Contrarian Fund Legacy Class shares returned 25.73%, outperforming its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Index, which gained 16.24%.
Our investment process seeks to identify out-of-favor companies that we believe have depressed valuations and visible catalysts for sustainable improvement. Experience has taught us that businesses with the potential for earnings growth and multiple expansion can be a powerful source of outperformance. As such, we employ a fundamental research-driven process that includes screening for companies that have multiple quarters of year-over-year earnings declines, understanding the reason for the declines, then singling out the companies we believe are poised for an earnings rebound via a cohesive turnaround plan, a new management team, or through improvements or changes to the business. The outcome of this process is a concentrated portfolio of 50-65 of our best ideas.
With a process that prioritizes the management of risk over the opportunity for return, we scrutinize the quality of each prospective investment’s business model and its valuation. Our high standards for quality require that a company have a durable competitive advantage, improving return on invested capital and free cash flow, as well as sustainable future earnings growth. As part of our risk-management process, we analyze the beta-adjusted weights of Fund holdings against the Russell 2500 Index to determine how sensitive each holding is to movement in the broader market. Depending on the degree to which a stock correlates closely with market movement (high beta) or inversely to the market (low beta), we may increase or decrease our weighting to align with the Fund’s risk parameters. Our most recent beta analysis contributed to our decision to trim our positions in oil and gas company California Resources Corp. and biopharmaceutical firm Nektar Therapeutics, both of which were among our strongest individual contributors.
Top sector contribution came from healthcare, where Nektar delivered outsized gains. Other areas of strength in the Fund included information technology, which outperformed on the strength of our semiconductor holdings, and energy where we averaged nearly 700 basis points of exposure over the period. Conversely, relative performance was hindered by negative stock selection in the materials and financials sectors. Broadly speaking, materials stocks have pulled back in recent months after a long period of solid gains driven by increased investment in infrastructure spending in the U.S. Concerns of a trade war also weighed on the sector.
The three largest contributors to the Fund’s performance during the period were Nektar Therapeutics (NKTR), California Resources Corp. (CRC), and Juno Therapeutics, Inc. (JUNO).
Nektar Therapeutics (NKTR) is a biotech company currently transitioning from being a provider of technology solutions for other drug companies to developing its own drugs. When we originally purchased shares, investors attributed very little value to the company’s proprietary immuno-oncology program, which we viewed as a significant opportunity. Since then, most clinical trial data has been supportive of Nektar’s rising stock price. However, the most recent preliminary data gave the perception that newer patients to the trial did not show a clear benefit from Nektar’s lead cancer drug. We have met with several key opinion leaders who believe it takes

Portfolio Performance and Composition (Unaudited) (continued)
  four to six months for this drug to demonstrate efficacy for most patients. We therefore expect the efficacy data to improve for these newer patients as the trial continues. While we maintain a favorable view of Nektar’s prospects in immune-oncology, we reduced our investment in the company to manage downside risk.
California Resources Corp. (CRC) is an oil and gas exploration and drilling company operating exclusively in California. We like CRC for its high free cash flow, world-class resource base, and flexible operating methods. Investor skepticism about the ability of oil producers to profitably drill for oil in California has led the market to significantly underappreciate CRC’s attributes. More recently, the company demonstrated a capacity to grow production, sending shares higher. An increase in oil prices also supported stock gains. Although we remain confident in the long-term prospects for this company, we trimmed our position based on risk management.
Juno Therapeutics, Inc. (JUNO) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing cellular immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer. Our opportunity to invest in Juno was created by a poor stock price reaction to clinical trial results that showed drug safety issues. We were motivated by management’s clearly articulated plan to introduce a safer version of the therapy and conduct new trials. Over time, Juno’s clinical trial data showed superiority versus its competitors, and ultimately Juno announced it was being acquired by biotech giant Celgene in a $9 billion deal. News of the acquisition was well received by the market and we sold our stake at a profit.
The three largest detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period were Celgene Corp. (CELG), Owens-Illinois (OI), and US Concrete, Inc. (USCR).
Celgene, Inc. (CELG) is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the development of innovative therapies for the treatment of cancer and inflammatory diseases. The commercial success of Revlimid, Celgene’s treatment for multiple myeloma, is one of many things that initially attracted us to this company. Revlimid generates significant free cash flow, providing Celgene with ample capital to research and develop other drugs. The stock traded lower during the period following setbacks for some of its key pipeline drugs, including a treatment for multiple sclerosis that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration rejected due to insufficient data. We continue to believe Revlimid is a strong franchise and that Celgene has pricing power. We consequently used the downturn in the stock as an opportunity to increase our position.
Owens-Illinois, Inc. (OI) is a manufacturer of glass containers primarily for the food and beverage industry. We invested in this steady, low-growth company after our research revealed that its stock valuation did not reflect improving fundamentals and that earnings were poised to experience a period of outsized growth. Over the past few years, new management has taken several steps to drive a positive operational transformation and improve capital allocation. We see evidence of progress in the company’s improving return on invested capital and recent earnings growth. However, unfavorable foreign currency exchange impacts are likely to weaken near-term results. Approximately 70% of Owens-Illinois’ revenues are generated overseas. We believe the market has overreacted to the transitory currency impact and are maintaining our position.
US Concrete, Inc. (USCR) produces ready-mixed concrete in select markets. We originally purchased shares of this company following a period of bad weather, which temporarily slowed business and led to a downturn in the stock. We felt the strength of US Concrete’s underlying business would continue to support growth. Weather was again an issue in early 2018. Given that the first quarter is the least significant season for construction-related businesses and that US Concrete has a large and growing backlog for its concrete, we remain confident in the growth prospects for this company and are comfortable with our investment.

Outlook
Our outlook for the economy and market continues to be dictated by the information we glean during our company-level research. Currently, companies are expressing confidence in the domestic economy while reporting slower growth outside the U.S., which is reflected in many non-U.S. stock prices. We are comfortable with our international exposure and believe our overall mix of investments will allow us to deliver the solid long-term performance our investors expect and deserve. We are particularly optimistic about our information technology (IT) holdings as we believe these companies will benefit from higher IT spending among businesses with more cash on hand because of recent corporate tax cuts.

Portfolio Performance and Composition (Unaudited)

Market Overview
Although stronger economic growth, positive earnings news, and new corporate tax-cut legislation propelled stocks higher during the period, rising interest rates, geopolitical tensions, and the threat of increased trade barriers fueled market volatility. Despite the volatility, stocks delivered solid returns across most segments of the market. In fact, within the S&P 500 Index, all but one sector gained, with information technology and consumer discretionary stocks delivering the strongest performance. The only sector to decline was consumer staples.
As U.S. inflation inched its way toward the Federal Reserve’s stated inflation target of 2%, Fed policymakers raised short-term interest rates on three separate occasions during the period. Policymakers stated that two more rate hikes will likely follow before year end.
Investors continued to demonstrate a preference for large-cap stocks, which outperformed mid-caps and small caps during the period, as measured by the Standard & Poor’s and Russell family of indices. Meanwhile, growth stocks outperformed value across all capitalization ranges.

Fund Performance
For the twelve months ended June 30, 2018, the Meridian Equity Income Fund Legacy Class shares returned 38.78% (net), outperforming its primary benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, which gained 14.37%.
Our investment objective is to generate superior results independent of the benchmark. To achieve this goal, we engage in fundamental research and active portfolio construction to identify and invest in a combination of long and short stock positions, as well as call and put options. During the period, this approach enabled us to outperform our benchmark, particularly within the energy and consumer staples sectors. Outperformance in energy was driven by our long stock position in California Resources Corporation, a top contributor discussed later in this letter.
Although the Fund outperformed the benchmark by a wide margin, relative gains were limited by the negative contribution of our gold call options. Although the defensive nature of these investments pressures Fund results in an up market, they provide a measure of protection in down markets. As such, we are comfortable maintaining a position in gold. Another area of relative weakness in the Fund was the utilities sector, where underperformance was driven by our only utilities holding Dominion Energy. Utilities stocks generally were pressured by the rising interest rate environment. Dominion Energy shares further underperformed due to the company’s announced acquisition of SCANA, a South Carolina based utility.
In terms of positioning, approximately 24% of the Fund’s total assets continued to be allocated to information technology stocks. As demand for anytime, anywhere connectivity rises and smartphone, tablet, and computer usage increases, we continue to focus on investments in companies providing the leading-edge solutions and services to augment processing power, memory, and storage. The Fund’s remaining assets are invested in what we call “special teams” and “defensive plays.” Special teams include companies with game-changing products and services, while defensive plays include investments we believe will improve the Fund’s odds of outperforming when the market is down and during times of heightened volatility.
The largest contributors to the Fund’s performance during the period included California Resources Corp. (CRC), Nvidia Corp. (NVDA), and Juno Therapeutics, Inc. (JUNO).
California Resources Corp. (CRC) is the largest oil and natural gas producer in California, operating exclusively within the State of California. On January 22, 2016, Brent Crude hit its low at $27 due to global oversupply. Later that year, OPEC and non-OPEC producers cut production by 1.8 million barrels per day to reduce global crude oil inventories to normal levels. Crises in Venezuela significantly removed additional supply. Recently, OPEC and non-OPEC producers increased production in response to market concerns that the accelerated rate of supply reduction could result in undersupply by the end of 2018. Against this backdrop, oil prices rose during the period, driving CRC’s stock higher. We like CRC for the quality and resiliency of its world-class resource base, and we like the common equity for the free cash flow leverage to Brent crude oil prices. We continue to be confident in the long-term prospects for this company and maintained our position.
Nvidia Corp. (NVDA) led by Co-Founder and CEO Jensen Huang, is a California-based fabless semiconductor company known for the invention of the GPU and its GeForce consumer brand. Unlike CPUs, which are general purpose processors, GPUs use a parallel processing approach which makes them optimal for computationally

  intensive end markets such as supercomputing, meteorological forecasting, molecule discovery and video gaming. As the largest cloud companies in the world increase their own investments in data center and computing capacity to deliver connected services to both consumer and enterprises, we believe that NVIDIA will be a beneficiary. We are comfortable with our sizable position in this long-term holding.
Juno Therapeutics, Inc. (JUNO) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing cellular immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer. Our investment thesis for Juno was based on its work with experimental new gene therapies designed to reprogram T cells from a patient’s own immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells. In January, Juno announced it was being acquired by biotech giant Celgene in a $9 billion deal. The merger expands Celgene’s developmental pipeline of blood-cancer drugs at a time when Celgene is facing patent challenges to its cancer treatment, Revlimid. News of the acquisition was well received by the market and we sold our stake at a profit.
The three largest detractors from Fund performance were our short position in GrubHub, Inc. (GRUB), and our long stock positions in Switch, Inc. (SWCH), and Celgene, Inc. (CELG).
GrubHub, Inc. (GRUB) is an online and mobile food ordering company that connects diners with local restaurants. Our investment thesis for short-selling GrubHub was based on our belief that Amazon’s entry into the online food ordering business would negatively impact GrubHub’s long- term industry position. However, recently announced GrubHub partnerships, including one with Yum! Brands, operator of Taco Bell and KFC, and strong quarterly results drove shares higher during the period. After revisiting our investment thesis and performing additional research on the industry and GrubHub in particular, we now believe we were wrong in our thinking about GrubHub. We consequently exited our short position.
Switch, Inc. (SWCH) is a technology infrastructure company, led by Founder and CEO Rob Roy, whose core business is the design, construction, and operation of advanced data centers for mission critical computing applications including cloud computing, payment processing, ecommerce and online gaming. Switch operates four primary campuses in the United States to host servers for customers including government, cloud service providers and enterprises. The company’s value proposition to customers includes guaranteed 100% uptime, access to the lowest total cost of power, which is 100% renewable, significant connectivity savings, deployment in low sales tax jurisdictions and participation in a growing customer purchasing cooperative. During the period, Switch reported revenue growth which missed analysts’ expectations and caused the shares to underperform. Management noted a strong sales pipeline expected to close later this year. We continue to believe in the long-term growth potential of the company and increased our position size.
Celgene, Inc. (CELG) is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the development of innovative therapies for the treatment of cancer and inflammatory diseases. The commercial success of Revlimid, Celgene’s treatment for multiple myeloma, is one of many things that initially attracted us to this company. Revlimid generates significant free cash flow, providing Celgene with ample capital to research and develop other drugs. In addition, the company owns significant stakes in a number of good biotech companies, some of which we invest in. The stock traded lower during the period following setbacks for some of its key pipeline drugs, including a treatment for multiple sclerosis that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration rejected due to insufficient data. We continue to believe Revlimid is a strong franchise which is attractively valued. We consequently used the downturn in the stock as an opportunity to increase our position.

Outlook
Despite rising tension from trade wars, we believe the U.S. economy will continue to power ahead and that the dollar will strengthen. Nonetheless, we are cognizant of the multitude of variables that could spark volatility in the market. By making relatively large allocations to the stocks of companies in which we have the highest conviction while also incorporating investments that provide a level of insurance in down markets, we feel confident that the Fund is positioned to successfully navigate market swings and to outperform the benchmark. We also remain confident in the fundamental, company-level research that guides our investment decisions.

Meridian Small Cap Growth Fund
Portfolio Performance and Composition (Unaudited)

Market Overview
Although stronger economic growth, positive earnings news, and new corporate tax-cut legislation propelled stocks higher during the period, rising interest rates, geopolitical tensions, and the threat of increased trade barriers fueled market volatility. Despite the volatility, stocks delivered solid returns across most segments of the market. In fact, within the Russell 2000 Growth Index, every sector advanced, with healthcare and information technology leading the way. Sectors with the smallest gains included utilities and real estate, which were both pressured by rising interest rates.
As U.S. inflation inched its way toward the Federal Reserve’s stated inflation target of 2%, Fed policymakers raised short-term interest rates on three separate occasions during the period. Policymakers stated that two more rate hikes will likely follow before year end.
Our most striking observation over the past year was the dramatic outperformance of growth stocks versus their value peers. Based on the Russell family of indices, small cap growth outperformed small cap value by 990 basis points, and large cap growth outperformed large cap value by 1,570 basis points.

Fund Performance
For the twelve months ended June 30, 2018, the Meridian Small Cap Growth Fund Legacy Class shares returned 24.66% (net), outperforming its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index, which gained 21.86%.
Our investment process prioritizes the management of risk over the opportunity for return with the goal of building an all-weather portfolio that can perform in a variety of market conditions. Although volatility in 2017 was virtually nonexistent, we are encouraged by what we have seen so far in 2018. During the first six months of the year, there were 10 days in which the Russell 2000 Growth Index declined greater than 2%. The Fund outperformed the Index on all 10 of these days, delivering better than 70% downside protection on average.
The Fund’s outperformance was driven primarily by investments in the information technology sector, where software and services holdings led gains. Positive stock selection in the healthcare sector, particularly among pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and life sciences holdings, further buoyed returns. An underweight position in the materials sector also proved beneficial, as the sector struggled amid ongoing concerns about trade wars. Conversely, consumer staples was an area of weakness in the Fund, due to the disappointing performance of a single holding in this sector. The weak results posted by our industrials and energy holdings also weighed on results.
The three largest contributors to the Fund’s performance during the quarter were TriNet Group, Inc. (TNET), Exa Corporation (EX) and Axon Enterprise, Inc. (AAXN)
TriNet Group, Inc. (TNET) is a cloud-based professional employer organization (PEO) servicing small and medium-sized businesses in the United States. We believe the company’s significant investment in technology and new products over the past year will allow it to continue to differentiate itself within the marketplace and increase market share. We expect the company to begin growing worksite employees now that these investments are behind it. Over the past year, TriNet has continued to grow earnings and revenue at a healthy pace, benefiting from benign health and workers’ compensation claims, past price increases, and a sizeable decline in the company’s tax rate. With the business firing on all cylinders, we maintain a positive outlook for the company. TriNet was our largest position at the end of the period.
Exa Corporation (EXA) develops simulation software used primarily by automobile and truck manufacturers. Exa’s software enhances performance and reduces costs by eliminating the need for expensive prototypes, the existing method used to test and optimize vehicles’ aerodynamic, thermal, and acoustic properties. The company expanded into the oil and gas industry with a solution that can help exploration and production companies lower costs and better understand critical properties. Among the many things we liked about Exa was the recurring revenue stream generated through its consumption-based term license revenue model. In September 2017, the company announced it would be acquired by French software maker Dassault Systèmes for a 43% premium. News of the acquisition was well received by the market and we sold our position.
Axon Enterprise, Inc. (AAXN) develops and manufactures non-lethal electric weapons and technology products for law enforcement, including body cameras and a cloud-based digital evidence platform known as

Meridian Funds 19 www.meridianfund.com


Table of Contents
Meridian Small Cap Growth Fund
Portfolio Performance and Composition (Unaudited) (continued)
  Evidence.com. Our investment thesis for the company is based on growing global demand for Axon’s products. This thesis continues to play out as the company recently announced better-than-expected first-quarter financial results. Net income nearly tripled as operating margin increased to more than 13%. After enjoying a long run of strong performance, we sold our shares of Axon at a profit following management’s announcement of a secondary offering of common stock aimed at bolstering its balance sheet in front of a planned migration to a subscription model in the weapons segment. We think moving to a subscription model makes good business sense, but we worry that this transition will have a negative impact on free cash flow generation.
The three largest detractors from the Fund’s performance during the quarter were Hudson Technologies, Inc. (HDSN), Sally Beauty Holdings (SBH) and InnerWorkings (INWK).
Hudson Technologies, Inc. (HDSN) supplies the growing refrigerant market with critical chemicals used in air conditioning and refrigeration systems. With a market-leading position in the reclamation market, we believe the company stands to benefit from the federally mandated phaseout of ozone-damaging virgin R-22 gas production over the next decade. In the near term, however, Hudson is struggling with lower refrigerant prices due in part to a later-than-expected summer season and continued supply of virgin R-22 into the marketplace. As a result, the company’s revenues and profits will likely come in below original expectations and result in a near-term violation of Hudson’s debt covenants. We continue to believe the R-22 gas market is poised for a rebound as virgin production is scheduled to be completely phased out by 2019. In addition, Hudson continues to generate significant free cash flow, which reduces our concern around any near-term liquidity issues. We maintained our position in the stock.
Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. (SBH) is a specialty distributor and retailer of beauty products to salons and consumers worldwide. We like this company for its long track record of consistent and strong earnings growth and its promising international opportunities. A decline in same-store sales pressured the stock during the period. Declining traffic to Sally Beauty’s strip mall locations and weather-related disturbances were the main culprits for the declining same store sales. More recently, the company announced plans to implement new loyalty and e-commerce initiatives aimed at increasing store traffic and sales. While we believe these initiatives will be positive over the long term, they could create near-term disruptions. Nonetheless, Sally Beauty continues to grow earnings, reduce operating costs, and generate solid free cash flow. In addition, management plans to allocate more cash to reducing leverage, which we view as a positive. Sally Beauty is smaller position in the Fund today compared to a year ago as we balance an attractive valuation with high leverage and near-term risks around the roll-out of a new loyalty program.
InnerWorkings (INWK) provides print procurement solutions to corporate clients. Through proprietary software applications and databases, the company stores, analyzes, and tracks the production capabilities of its supplier network, as well as detailed pricing data for bids and print jobs, which allows it to find better pricing for clients. We believe InnerWorkings has significant growth potential given its current low market penetration among Fortune 500 companies. A renewed commitment to improving return on invested capital and an organic growth strategy also bode well for the company. During the period, the company delayed the filing of its 2018 first quarter 10-Q on multiple occasions pending a restatement of prior year earnings, prompting investors to lose patience. While disappointing, we believe the finalization of the restatement is imminent and that the forward outlook for the company has not changed materially. Despite the pull back in the stock, we did not add to the position given the high amount of uncertainty surrounding the restatement.

Outlook
Small cap indices continued their upward advance with the market entering its 10th year in bull market territory. We continue to have a favorable economic outlook as the robust job market has led to rising labor force participation, improving wages, and higher consumer confidence. In addition, the overall business climate remains very healthy with recently enacted tax reform spurring investment and high business confidence. Against this backdrop, we expect growth and overall profits to remain solid. However, our enthusiasm is tempered in part by the current valuation of the overall equity markets. Valuations more fully reflect the positive underlying fundamentals of the current environment, particularly within the technology and healthcare sectors. We continue to employ a risk-first approach that should enable us to deliver solid outperformance during most market corrections. As a result, we have trimmed and sold many of our more dynamic, higher growth companies that we believe are priced to perfection and vulnerable to a market pullback. This has led to an

underweight position in the healthcare and technology sectors. Offsetting this underweight, we have continued to find attractive opportunities in the industrial sector, especially within the commercial and professional services industry group, as well as select opportunities within the consumer sector.
The Federal Reserve has continued its normalization process by shrinking its balance sheet and increasing interest rates. Given the health of the economy and rising inflationary pressures, we believe the Fed will continue to increase rates. We are monitoring rising trade tensions and tariff implementations closely and worry that an escalating trade war could accelerate overall inflationary pressures and the pace at which the Fed pursues its normalization process. The result of this would likely be increased volatility and a pullback in the overall market, two outcomes that would likely be good for the Fund. Through the first half of 2018, we are encouraged to see a trend toward more typical volatility as measured by the number of days that the benchmark declines greater than 2%. While corrections can be unnerving, they allow us to execute on the Fund’s downside protection goal while positioning the Fund to achieve its upside participation target as we add that are poised to outperform when the market rebounds.

Performance and Expense Disclosures
June 30, 2018

Disclosures Regarding Fund Performance
Past performance is not predictive of future performance. Current performance may be lower or higher than the quoted past performance. Reported performance assumes reinvestment of Fund distributions. Reported performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares, nor does it reflect the 2% redemption fee on shares sold within 60 days of original purchase date. If reflected, the taxes and fees would reduce the performance quoted. Net asset value, investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. You can obtain the most current month-end performance at www.meridianfund.com.
Performance prior to September 5, 2013 reflects the Fund’s performance under the management of Aster Investment Management Co. using similar investment strategies.
Legacy class shares are no longer offered to the public effective March 1, 2014, except under certain limited circumstances.
Investor Class, Class A, and Class C Shares of the Meridian Growth Fund are closed to new investors effective June 15, 2017. Existing investors may continue to purchase shares.
Investor Class, Class A, and Class C Shares of the Meridian Small Cap Growth Fund are closed to new investors effective June 29, 2018. Existing investors may continue to purchase shares.
Indices are typically unmanaged, and do not reflect deductions for fees or expenses. You cannot invest directly in an index.

Disclosures Regarding Fund Expenses
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur certain costs which include: 1) transaction related costs, such as redemption fees for sales made within 60 days of original purchase; and 2) operating costs, such as investment advisory fees, administrative fees, service and distribution (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses.
Operating costs, which are deducted from a Fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the portfolio. The Fund Expense examples reported on the previous pages are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period and assume reinvestment of all dividends and distributions.
The first section of the example describes actual expenses and account values for the 6 month period reported. To use this information to calculate the expenses you paid for your investment in the Fund, divide your account value by $1,000 then multiply the result by the number reported under “Expenses Paid During the Period”.
The second section of the example describes hypothetical expenses and account values using the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed 5% return. These hypothetical expenses and returns should be used to compare the Fund’s expenses to other mutual funds’ reported hypothetical expenses and not to calculate your actual expenses paid during the period.
The expense examples do not reflect any transactional costs, such as the imposition of a 2% redemption fee on shares held 60 days or less. Therefore, the information reported within these expense examples are meant to highlight on- going costs of owning Fund shares and will not reflect the total relative costs of owning different mutual funds. If these transactional costs were included, the reported expenses would have been higher.
Investors should consider the investment objective and policies, risk considerations, charges and ongoing expenses of an investment carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information relevant to an investment in any of the Meridian Funds. Please read the prospectus carefully before you invest. To obtain a prospectus, please contact your investment representative or the Funds' transfer agent at 800.446.6662 or access our website at www.meridianfund.com.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies: Meridian Fund, Inc. (the “Meridian Funds” or the “Company”) comprises the following separate series: the Meridian Growth Fund (the “Growth Fund”), the Meridian Contrarian Fund (the “Contrarian Fund”), the Meridian Equity Income Fund (the “Equity Income Fund”), and the Meridian Small Cap Growth Fund (the “Small Cap Growth Fund”) (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”). The Company is registered as an open-end investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and is organized as a Maryland corporation. Each Fund is classified as a "diversified" management investment company.
  Meridian Funds offer five share classes: Legacy Class Shares, Investor Class Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Institutional Class Shares. Prior to July 1, 2015, Class A Shares were known as Advisor Class Shares. As of June 30, 2018, Institutional Class Shares of the Equity Income Fund and Contrarian Fund are not currently being offered for sale. Effective June 15, 2017, Investor Class, Class A, and Class C Shares of the Growth Fund are closed to new investors. Effective June 29, 2018, Investor Class, Class A, and Class C Shares of the Small Cap Growth Fund are closed to new investors. Legacy Class Shares are available to investors who have continuously held an investment in any Meridian Fund prior to November 15, 2013. Institutional Class Shares are available to certain eligible investors including endowments, foundations and qualified retirement plans. Class A, Class C and Investor Class Shares are available for purchase through financial intermediary platforms. Class A Shares are subject to a maximum initial sales charge (front-end load) of 5.75%. Class C Shares are subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") if redeemed within one year of purchase. Investor Class Shares are not subject to frond-end load or CDSC and require a higher minimum initial investment. All Classes have identical rights and privileges with respect to the Fund in general, and exclusive voting rights with respect to Class specific matters. Net Asset Value ("NAV") per share may differ by class due to each class having its own expenses directly attributable to that class. Investor Class, Class A and Class C Shares are subject to shareholder servicing and sub-transfer agent fees. Class A and Class C Shares are also subject to certain expenses related to the distribution of these shares. See Note 6 for further information on additional share classes.
  The primary investment objectives of the Growth Fund and Contrarian Fund are to seek long-term growth of capital.
  The primary investment objective of the Equity Income Fund is to seek long-term growth of capital along with income as a component of total return.
  The primary investment objective of the Small Cap Growth Fund is to seek long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in equity securities of small capitalization companies.
  The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Each Fund is considered an investment company under U.S. GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies.
a. Cash & Cash Equivalents: The Funds consider their investment in a FDIC insured interest bearing account to be cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are valued at cost plus any accrued interest. The Funds maintain cash balances, which, at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Funds maintain these balances with a high quality financial institution.
b. Restricted Cash: At June 30, 2018, the Contrarian Fund and Equity Income Fund held restricted cash in connection with investments in certain derivative securities. Restricted cash is held in a segregated account with the Contrarian Fund and Equity Income Funds' custodian as well as with brokers and is reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Deposits at brokers and custodian for written options and securities sold short. Restrictions may include legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against short-term borrowing arrangements or contracts entered into with others.
c. Share Valuation: The NAV of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by each Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses), by the total number of shares outstanding of each Fund. The result is rounded to the nearest cent. Each Fund’s shares will not be priced on the days in which the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is closed for trading.
d. Investment Valuations: Equity securities are valued at the closing price or last sales price on the principal exchange or market on which they are traded; or, if there were no sales that day, at the last reported bid price.

  Fixed income (debt) securities are valued on the basis of last available bid prices or current market quotations provided by dealers or pricing services. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments, various relationships observed in the market between investments and calculated yield measures.
  Investments in open-end U.S. mutual funds are valued at NAV each business day.
  The market value of the Funds' investments in exchange traded funds is based on the published NAV of each fund computed as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on days when the NYSE is open.
  Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the last bid and ask prices at the close of the options market in which the options trade. An exchange-traded option for which there is no mean price is valued at the last bid (long positions) or ask (short positions) price. If no bid or ask price is available, the prior day’s price will be used, unless it is determined that the prior day’s price no longer reflects the fair value of the option.
  Securities and other assets for which reliable market quotations are not readily available or for which a significant event has occurred since the time of the most recent market quotation, will be valued based upon other available factors deemed relevant by ArrowMark Colorado Holdings, LLC (the “Adviser”) under the guidelines established by, and under the general supervision and responsibility of, the Funds’ Board of Directors (the “Board”). Effective March 31, 2017, Arrowpoint Asset Management, LLC changed its name to ArrowMark Colorado Holdings, LLC. These factors include but are not limited to (i) attributes specific to the investment; (ii) the principal market for the investment; (iii) the customary participants in the principal market for the investment; (iv) data assumptions by market participants for the investment, if reasonably available; (v) quoted prices for similar investments in active markets; and (vi) other factors, such as future cash flows, interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and/or default rates. Valuations based on such factors are reported to the Board on a quarterly basis.
e. Fair Value Measurements: As described in Note 1.d. above, the Funds utilize various methods to determine and measure the fair value of investment securities on a recurring basis. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3) that are significant to the fair value instrument. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
  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.); and
  Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds' determinations as to the fair value of investments).
  The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The summary of inputs used to value the Funds’ securities as of June 30, 2018 is as follows:

f. Investment Transactions and Investment Income: Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses on security transactions are determined on the basis of specific identification for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Under the applicable foreign tax laws, a withholding tax at various rates may be imposed on capital gains, dividends and interest. Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on debt securities, is accrued daily. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted and amortized over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method.
g. Option writing: When the Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability and subsequently adjusted to the current fair value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from investments. The difference between the premium and amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain or, if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security or currency in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Fund. The Fund as writer of an option bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
h. Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses: Income, gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each share class based on the relative proportion of the net assets of the class to each Fund’s total net assets. Expenses are allocated on the basis of relative net assets of the class to the Fund, or if an expense is specific to a share class, to that specific share class.

i. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses at the date of the financial statements. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be significant.
j. Foreign Currency Translation: Securities denominated in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars using the spot market rate of exchange at the time of valuation. Purchases and sales of such securities and related dividend and interest income are converted into U.S. dollars using the spot market rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such translations. The Funds do not separately report the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from changes in market prices on securities held. Such changes are included in net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments as reported in the Statements of Operations.
k. Distributions to Shareholders: The Funds record distributions to shareholders on the ex-dividend date. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.
  Distributions which exceed net investment income and net realized capital gains are reported as distributions in excess of net investment income or distributions in excess of net realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes but not for tax purposes. To the extent they exceed net investment income and net realized capital gains for tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of paid-in-capital.
l. Guarantees and Indemnification: Under the Funds’ organizational documents, its Officers and Directors are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses, subject to applicable law. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

3. Investment Transactions: The cost of investments purchased and the proceeds from sales of investments, excluding short-term securities and U.S. government obligations, for the year ended June 30, 2018, were as follows:
  Purchases   Proceeds from Sales
Growth Fund

$713,382,334   $708,362,300
Contrarian Fund

$290,590,774   $333,939,186

$962,182,914   $514,744,424
       
       
4. Other Investment Transactions
a. Restricted Securities: Restricted securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value, as determined by the board of directors. Restricted securities issued by publicly traded companies are generally valued at a discount to similar publicly traded securities. Restricted securities issued by nonpublic entities may be valued by reference to comparable public entities or fundamental data relating to the issuer, or both. Depending on the relative significance of valuation inputs, these instruments may be classified in either level 2 or level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2018, Contrarian and Equity Income don’t hold any restricted securities.
b. Private Placement Securities: Privately issued securities are restricted securities that are offered in a private placement and are generally not registered with the SEC or any federal or state regulatory authority. Securities issued in a private placement are generally "restricted securities" as that term is defined under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, and may not be resold without registration with the SEC or the availability of an exemption therefrom. There is generally no public trading market for privately offered securities and it is generally not anticipated that a public trading market will develop. There are substantial restrictions on the transfer of privately offered securities. Such securities have limited liquidity that makes it difficult or impossible to sell. An investment in privately issued securities often requires a long-term investment horizon and it may be many years before an investor receives significant distributions from such investment. Due to the lack of public market for privately offered securities, it may be difficult to value the investment.
c. Securities Lending: The Funds have entered into an agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Lending Agent”), dated September 23, 2015 (“Securities Lending Agreement”), to provide securities lending services to the Funds. Under this program, the proceeds (cash collateral) received from borrowers are used to invest in money market funds or joint repurchase agreements. Under the Securities Lending Agreement, the borrowers may pay the Funds negotiated lender fees and the Funds receive cash and/or securities as collateral in an amount equal to not less than 102% of the market value of loaned securities. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of each business day of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund, or excess collateral is returned by the Fund, on the next business day. The borrower pays fees at the Funds’ direction to the Lending Agent. Although the risk of lending is generally mitigated by the collateral, the Funds could experience a delay in recovering securities and a possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them.
  The following table summarizes the securities received as collateral for securities lending:
  Collateral Type   Coupon Range   Maturity Date Range   Market Value
Growth Fund

U.S. Government Obligations   0.00% - 8.75%   7/12/18 - 11/15/47   $234,023,461
Contrarian Fund

U.S. Government Obligations   0.00% - 8.75%   7/12/18 - 11/15/47   110,569,645
Equity Income Fund

U.S. Government Obligations   0.00% - 8.00%   8/16/18 - 11/15/47   1,030,701
Small Cap Growth Fund

U.S. Government Obligations   0.00% - 8.75%   7/12/18 - 11/15/47   140,192,901
Income generated from securities lending is presented in the Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2018, the total value of securities on loan for the Growth Fund, Contrarian Fund, Equity Income Fund, and the Small Cap Growth Fund were $334,359,119, $191,177,903, $1,017,400, and $216,105,628, respectively. Securities on loan are

footnoted in the Schedules of Investments. As of June 30, 2018, the total collateral value for the Growth Fund, Contrarian Fund, Equity Income Fund, and the Small Cap Growth Fund were $342,814,272, $195,602,341, $1,030,802 and $221,737,784, respectively.
d. Repurchase Agreements and Joint Repurchase Agreements: The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements for temporary cash management purposes provided that the value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest, will equal or exceed the value of the repurchase agreement during the term of the agreement. The underlying collateral for all repurchase agreements is held in safekeeping by the Funds' custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.
  Additionally, the Funds may enter into joint repurchase agreements for reinvestment of cash collateral on securities lending transactions under the securities lending program offered by the Lending Agent (the “Program”), provided that the value of the underlying collateral, including accrued interest will equal or exceed the value of the joint repurchase agreement during the term of the agreement. The Funds participate on a pro rata basis with other clients of the Lending Agent in its share of the underlying collateral under such joint repurchase agreements and in its share of proceeds from any repurchase or other disposition of the underlying collateral. The underlying collateral for joint repurchase agreements is held in safekeeping by the Funds’ custodian or at the Federal Reserve Bank. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings commence with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited. Pursuant to the Program, the Funds are indemnified for such losses by the Lending Agent.
  At June 30, 2018, the market value of repurchase agreements or joint repurchase agreements outstanding for the Growth Fund, Contrarian Fund, Equity Income Fund, and the Small Cap Growth Fund were $108,790,811, $85,032,696, $101 and $81,544,883, respectively.
e. Master Netting Arrangements: The Funds may enter into master netting agreements with their counterparties for the securities lending program and repurchase agreements, which provide the right, in the event of default (including bankruptcy or insolvency) for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to master netting agreements in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For securities lending transactions see Note 4.c.

f. Options: Certain Funds purchase and write call and put options to increase or decrease their exposure to underlying instruments (including equity risk, interest rate risk and/or commodity price risk) and/or, in the case of options written, to generate gains from options premiums. A call option gives the purchaser (holder) of the option the right (but not the obligation) to buy, and obligates the seller (writer) to sell (when the option is exercised) the underlying instrument at the exercise or strike price at any time or at a specified time during the option period. A put option gives the holder the right to sell and obligates the writer to buy the underlying instrument at the exercise or strike price at any time or at a specified time during the option period. When the Funds purchase (write) an option, an amount equal to the premium paid (received) by the Funds is reflected as an asset (liability). The amount of the asset (liability) is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased (written). When an instrument is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the instrument acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the instrument sold. When an option expires (or the Funds enter into a closing transaction), the Funds realize a gain or loss on the option to the extent of the premiums received or paid (or gain or loss to the extent the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premiums received or paid). When the Funds write a call option, such option is “covered,” meaning that the Funds hold the underlying instrument subject to being called by the option counterparty. When the Funds write a put option, such option is covered by cash in an amount sufficient to cover the obligation.
  In purchasing and writing options, the Funds bear the risk of an unfavorable change in the value of the underlying instrument or the risk that the Funds may not be able to enter into a closing transaction due to an illiquid market. Exercise of a written option could result in the Funds purchasing or selling a security when it otherwise would not, or at a price different from the current market value.
  Average quarterly balances of outstanding derivative financial instruments were as follows.

For the year ended June 30, 2018, the effect of equity option positions written can be found in the Statements of Operations under Realized and Unrealized Gain (Loss), Net realized gain on written options and Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on written options, and are included in Options written at value on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Equity options purchased are included in Investments, at value on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Realized and unrealized gain/loss of equity options purchased are included in Net realized gain on investments and foreign currency transactions and Net change in unrealized appreciation on investments and foreign currency translations on the Statements of Operations.
g. Warrants: The Company can invest in warrants and stock purchase rights of companies of any market capitalization. A warrant gives the Company the right to buy stock, typically from the issuer. The warrant specifies the amount of underlying stock, the purchase (or "exercise") price, and the date the warrant expires. Certain warrants may permit, without legal obligation, net settlement for stock or cash. The Company has no obligation to exercise the warrant and buy the stock.
h. Short Sales: The Funds may enter into short sales. A short sale occurs when a fund sells a security it generally does not own (the security is borrowed), in anticipation of a decline in the security’s price. The initial amount of a short sale is recorded as a liability which is marked-to-market daily. Fluctuations in the value of the short liability are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. If a Fund shorts a security when also holding a long position in the security (a “short against the box”), as the security’s price declines, the short position increases in value, offsetting the long position’s decrease in value. The opposite effect occurs if the security’s price rises. A Fund realizes a gain or loss

June 30, 2018


  upon closing of the short sale (returning the security to the counterparty by way of purchase or delivery of a long position owned). Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from security purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested. The Funds are liable to the buyer for any dividends payable on securities while those securities are in a short position. These dividends are an expense of the Funds. The Funds designate collateral consisting of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid assets sufficient to collateralize the market value of short positions.
5. Market and Debt Securities Risk
  In the normal course of business, each Fund's investment activities expose it to various types of risk associated with the financial instruments and markets in which it invests. The significant types of financial risks each Fund is exposed to include market risk and debt securities risk. Each Fund’s prospectus provides details of these and other types of risk.
  Market Risk: Market risk refers to the possibility that the market values of securities or other investments that a Fund holds will fall, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, or fail to rise. Security values may fall or fail to rise because of a variety of factors affecting (or the market’s perception of) individual companies or other issuers (e.g., an unfavorable earnings report), industries or sectors, or the market as a whole, reducing the value of an investment in a Fund. Accordingly, an investment in the Fund could lose money over short or even long periods. The market values of the securities the Fund holds also can be affected by changes (or perceived changes) in U.S. or foreign economies and financial markets, and the liquidity of these securities, among other factors. In general, equity securities tend to have greater price volatility than debt securities. In addition, stock prices may be sensitive to rising interest rates, as the cost of capital rises and borrowing costs increase. As a result, the value of your investments in a Fund may be more or less than the value of your purchase price.
  Debt Securities Risk: Each Fund may invest in debt securities of both government and corporate issuers. A decline in prevailing levels of interest rates generally increases the value of debt securities in a Fund’s portfolio, while an increase in rates usually reduces the value of those securities. The value of a Fund’s debt securities, including bonds and convertible securities, are affected by movements in interest rates; if interest rates rise, the value of these securities may fall. Generally, the longer the average maturity of a debt security, the greater the change in its value. As a result, to the extent that a Fund invests in debt securities, interest rate fluctuations will affect the Fund’s net asset value, but not the income it receives from debt securities it owns. Debt securities are also subject to credit, liquidity risk and prepayment and extension risk. Credit risk is the risk that the entity that issued a debt security may become unable to make payments of principal and interest, and includes the risk of default. Liquidity risk is the risk that a Fund may not be able to sell portfolio securities because there are too few buyers for them. Prepayment and extension risk is the risk that a loan, bond or other security might be called or otherwise converted, prepaid or redeemed before maturity. If a loan or security is converted, prepaid or redeemed before maturity, particularly during a time of declining interest rates or spreads, the portfolio managers may not be able to invest the proceeds in securities or loans providing as high a level of income, resulting in a reduced yield to a Fund. Conversely, as interest rates rise or spreads widen, the likelihood of prepayment decreases. The portfolio managers may be unable to capitalize on securities with higher interest rates or wider spreads because a Fund’s investments are locked in at a lower rate for a longer period of time.
6. Affiliate Transactions and Fees
  Management Fees: Under the Investment Management Agreement, the Adviser receives the following fees for providing certain investment management and other services necessary for managing each Fund. The fee is paid monthly in arrears and calculated based on that month’s daily average net assets.

9. Federal Income Taxes Information: It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of their taxable income to their shareholders; therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (current and prior three tax years), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue. The Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next 12 months. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year ended June 30, 2018, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
  U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. As of period end, the following permanent differences attributable to the capital gain adjustment on sale of Partnerships, the recharacterization of distributions, and mark-to-market adjustments in passive foreign investment companies were reclassified to the following accounts:
  Increase/(Decrease)

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders of Meridian Growth Fund, Meridian Contrarian Fund, Meridian Equity Income Fund, and Meridian Small Cap Growth Fund and Board of Directors of Meridian Fund, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Meridian Fund, Inc. comprising Meridian Growth Fund, Meridian Contrarian Fund, Meridian Equity Income Fund, and Meridian Small Cap Growth Fund (the “Funds”) as of June 30, 2018, and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for year then ended (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of June 30, 2018, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights for the years or periods ended June 30, 2017 and prior, were audited by other auditors whose report dated August 24, 2017, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and financial highlights.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audit includes performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2018, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the Funds’ auditor since 2018.

EX-99.CODE ETH

MERIDIAN FUND, INC.

CODE OF ETHICS FOR

PRINCIPAL OFFICERS AND SENIOR FINANCIAL OFFICERS

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Meridian Fund, Inc. (the “Company”) has adopted this Code of Ethics (the “Code”) for the Company’s Principal Officers and Senior Financial Officers (the “Officers”) to guide and remind the Officers of their responsibilities to the Company, other Officers, shareholders of the Company, and governmental authorities. Officers are expected to act in accordance with the guidance and standards set forth in this Code.

For the purposes of this Code, the Company’s Principal Officers and Senior Financial Officers shall include: the Principal Executive Officer; the Principal Financial Officer; the Principal Accounting Officer; the Controller; and any persons performing similar functions on behalf of the Company, regardless of whether such persons are employed by the Company or a third party.

This Code is intended to serve as the code of ethics described in Section 406 of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Form N-CSR. To the extent that an Officer is subject to the Company’s code of ethics adopted pursuant to Rule 17j-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Rule 17j-1 Code”), this Code is separate from and in addition to the Rule 17j-1 Code. This Code also should be interpreted in the context of all applicable laws, regulations, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, as amended, and all other governance and disclosure policies and documents adopted by the Board. All Officers must become familiar and fully comply with this Code. Because this Code cannot and does not cover every applicable law or provide answers to all questions that might arise, all Officers are expected to use common sense about what is right and wrong, including a sense of when it is proper to seek guidance from others on the appropriate course of conduct.

The purpose of this Code is to set standards for the Officers that are reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and are necessary to promote:

 

   

honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

 

   

full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in any other public communications by the Company;

 

   

compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

 

   

the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to the appropriate persons as set forth in the Code; and

 

   

accountability for adherence to the Code.


1.

HONEST AND ETHICAL CONDUCT

 

a.

Honesty, Diligence and Professional Responsibility

Officers are expected to observe both the form and the spirit of the ethical principles contained in this Code. Officers must perform their duties and responsibilities for the Company:

 

   

with honesty, diligence, and a commitment to professional and ethical responsibility;

 

   

carefully, thoroughly and in a timely manner; and

 

   

in conformity with applicable professional and technical standards.

Officers who are certified public accountants are expected carry out their duties and responsibilities in a manner consistent with the principles governing the accounting profession, including any guidelines or principles issued by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board or the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants from time to time.

 

b.

Objectivity / Avoidance of Conflicts of Interest

Officers are expected to maintain objectivity and avoid conflicts of interest. In the performance of their duties and responsibilities for the Company, Officers must not subordinate their judgment to personal gain and advantage, or be unduly influenced by their own interests or by the interests of others. Officers must avoid participation in any activity or relationship that constitutes a conflict of interest unless that conflict has been completely disclosed to affected parties. Further, Officers should avoid participation in any activity or relationship that could create the appearance of a conflict of interest.

A conflict of interest would generally arise if an Officer directly or indirectly participated in any investment, interest, association, activity or relationship that may impair or appear to impair the Officer’s objectivity.

Any Officer who may be involved in a situation or activity that might be a conflict of interest or give the appearance of a conflict of interest should consider reporting such situation or activity using the reporting procedures set forth in Section 4 of this Code.

The Audit Committee will not be responsible for monitoring or enforcing this conflict of interest policy, but rather each Officer is responsible for self-compliance with this conflict of interest policy.

 

c.

Preparation of Financial Statements

Officers must not knowingly make any misrepresentations regarding the Company’s financial statements or any facts in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, and must

 

2


comply with all applicable laws, standards, principles, guidelines, rules and regulations in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements. This section is intended to prohibit:

 

   

making, or permitting or directing another to make, materially false or misleading entries in the Company’s financial statements or records;

 

   

failing to correct the Company’s financial statements or records that are materially false or misleading when he or she has the authority to record an entry; and

 

   

signing, or permitting or directing another to sign, a document containing materially false or misleading financial information.

Officers must be scrupulous in their application of generally accepted accounting principles. No Officer may (i) express an opinion or state affirmatively that the financial statements or other financial data of the Company are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, or (ii) state that he or she is not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such statements or data in order for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, if such statements or data contain any departure from generally accepted accounting principles then in effect in the United States.

Officers must follow the laws, standards, principles, guidelines, rules and regulations established by all applicable governmental bodies, commissions or other regulatory agencies in the preparation of financial statements, records and related information. If an Officer prepares financial statements, records or related information for purposes of reporting to such bodies, commissions or regulatory agencies, the Officer must follow the requirements of such organizations in addition to generally accepted accounting principles.

If an Officer and his or her supervisor have a disagreement or dispute relating to the preparation of financial statements or the recording of transactions, the Officer should take the following steps to ensure that the situation does not constitute an impermissible subordination of judgment:

 

   

The Officer should consider whether (i) the entry or the failure to record a transaction in the records, or (ii) the financial statement presentation or the nature or omission of disclosure in the financial statements, as proposed by the supervisor, represents the use of an acceptable alternative and does not materially misrepresent the facts or result in an omission of a material fact. If, after appropriate research or consultation, the Officer concludes that the matter has authoritative support and/or does not result in a material misrepresentation, the Officer need do nothing further.

 

   

If the Officer concludes that the financial statements or records could be materially misstated as a result of the supervisor’s determination, the Officer should follow the reporting procedures set forth in Section 4 of this Code.

 

3


d.

Obligations to the Independent Auditor of the Company

In dealing with the Company’s independent auditor, Officers must be candid and not knowingly misrepresent facts or knowingly fail to disclose material facts, and must respond to specific inquiries and requests by the Company’s independent auditor.

Officers must not take any action, or direct any person to take any action, to fraudulently influence, coerce, manipulate or mislead the Company’s independent auditor in the performance of an audit of the Company’s financial statements for the purpose of rendering such financial statements materially misleading.

 

2.

FULL, FAIR, ACCURATE, TIMELY AND UNDERSTANDABLE DISCLOSURE

It is the Company’s policy to provide full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with, or submits to, the SEC and in any other public communications by the Company. The Company has designed and implemented Disclosure Controls and Procedures to carry out this policy.

Officers are expected to use their best efforts to promote, facilitate, and prepare full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in all reports and documents that the Company files with, or submits to, the SEC and in any other public communications by the Company.

Officers must review the Company’s Disclosure Controls and Procedures to ensure they are aware of and carry out their duties and responsibilities in accordance with the Disclosure Controls and Procedures and the public reporting obligations of the Company. Officers are responsible for monitoring the integrity and effectiveness of the Company’s Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

 

3.

COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS

Officers are expected to know, respect and comply with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the conduct of the Company’s business. If an Officer is in doubt about the legality or propriety of an action, business practice or policy, the Officer should seek advice from the Officer’s supervisor or the Company’s legal counsel.

In the performance of their work, Officers must not knowingly be a party to any illegal activity or engage in acts that are discreditable to the Company.

Officers are expected to promote the Company’s compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. To promote such compliance, Officers may establish and maintain mechanisms to educate employees carrying out the finance and compliance functions of the Company about any applicable laws, rules or regulations that affect the operation of the finance and compliance functions and the Company generally.

 

4


4.

REPORTING OF ILLEGAL OR UNETHICAL BEHAVIOR

Officers should promptly report any conduct or actions by an Officer that do not comply with the law or with this Code. Officers and the Company shall adhere to the following reporting procedures:

 

   

Any Officer who questions whether a situation, activity or practice is acceptable must immediately report such practice to the Principal Executive Officer of the Company (or to an Officer who is the functional equivalent of this position) or to the Company’s legal counsel. The person receiving the report shall consider the matter and respond to the Officer within a reasonable amount of time.

 

   

If the Officer is not satisfied with the response of the Principal Executive Officer or counsel, the Officer must report the matter to the Chairman of the Audit Committee. If the Chairman is unavailable, the Officer may report the matter to any other member of the Audit Committee. The person receiving the report shall consider the matter, refer it to the full Audit Committee if he or she deems appropriate, and respond to the Officer within a reasonable amount of time.

 

   

If, after receiving a response, the Officer concludes that appropriate action was not taken, he or she should consider any responsibility that may exist to communicate to third parties, such as regulatory authorities or the Company’s independent auditor. In this matter, the Officer may wish to consult with his or her own legal counsel.

 

   

The Audit Committee and the Company will not be responsible for monitoring or enforcing this reporting of violations policy, but rather each Officer is responsible for self-compliance with this reporting of violations policy.

 

   

To the extent possible and as deemed reasonable and as allowed by law, reports will be treated as confidential.

 

   

If the Audit Committee determines that an Officer violated this Code, failed to report a known or suspected violation of this Code, or provided intentionally false or malicious information in connection with an alleged violation of this Code, the Company may take disciplinary action against any such Officer to the extent the Audit Committee deems appropriate. No Officer will be disciplined for reporting a concern in good faith.

 

   

The Company and the Audit Committee may report violations of the law to the appropriate authorities.

 

5


5.

ACCOUNTABILITY AND APPLICABILITY

All Officers will be held accountable for adherence to this Code. On an annual basis, within 30 days of the beginning of each calendar year, each Officer shall certify in writing his or her receipt, familiarity and commitment to compliance with this Code, by signing the Acknowledgment Form (Appendix A to this Code).

This Code is applicable to all Officers, regardless of whether such persons are employed by the Company or a third party. If an Officer is aware of a person (“Potential Officer”) who may be considered an Officer as defined by this Code, the Officer should inform legal counsel to the Company of such Potential Officer so that a determination can be made regarding whether such Potential Officer has completed or should complete an Acknowledgment Form. However, the absence of such a determination will not be deemed to relieve any person of his or her duties under this Code.

 

6.

DISCLOSURE OF THIS CODE

This Code shall be disclosed by at least one of the following methods in the manner prescribed by the SEC, unless otherwise required by law:

 

   

by filing a copy of the Code with the SEC;

 

   

by posting the text of the Code on the Company’s website; or

 

   

by providing, without charge, a copy of the Code to any person upon request.

 

7.

WAIVERS

Any waiver of this Code, including an implicit waiver, that has been granted to an Officer, may be made only by the Board or a committee of the Board to which such responsibility has been delegated, and must be disclosed by the Company in the manner prescribed by law and as set forth above in Section 6 (Disclosure of this Code).

 

8.

AMENDMENTS

This Code may be amended by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Board. Any amendments to this Code will be provided to the Officers.

Approved by the Board of Directors on August 12, 2014.
