Chairmans Commentary

June 30, 2014

Dear Fellow Shareholder,

As I write, people around the world are fixated on the outcomes of a series of soccer matches

called  the  World  Cup.    Every  day  reports  of  the  unexpected  emanate  from  Brazil.    For

instance,  it  surprised  many  that  the  U.S.  advanced  from  its  ominous-sounding  Group  of

Death to play even one match in the knockout round.  Even more astounding to some was

that  2010  World  Cup  Champion  Spain  failed  to  advance  out  of  group  rounds.   Despite  the

heightened drama, Brazil is not the only source of surprises this summer.  We too have found

a  few  as  we  take  this  mid-year  pause  to  assess  the  state  of  financial  markets  and  provide

you with a review of the Funds.

The fact that U.S. equities (as measured by the S&P 500 Index) were in positive territory at

the halfway mark is a wonder to many.  Conventional wisdom at the end of 2013 seemed to

be that U.S. equities were destined to fall in 2014 if for no other reason than they had such

a strong run last year. It initially looked like the conventionalists were, in fact, wise as the

S&P 500 fell nearly 6% in January on uncertainty in emerging markets and heightened ten-

sions with Russia over Ukraine and the Crimea Conflict. Calm was eventually restored and

the markets embarked on a slow, surprisingly staid slog upward to mid-year gains. Overall,

every major U.S. stock market index was up during the first half of 2014.

Using  second  quarter  earnings  estimates,  the  S&P  500s  operating  earnings  per  share  are

expected to be up 4.2% year-to-date.  So, the index grew slightly faster than earnings which

resulted in a modest increase in the markets trailing price-to-earnings multiple (P/E) from

17.2  to  17.7.    Using  projected  estimates,  the  S&P  500  was  priced  at  15.6  times  earnings

expected  over  the  next  12  months.   Valuation  levels    whether  using  trailing  or  projected

earnings fall within historical ranges and help confirm our view that equity markets, in

the aggregate, are fairly valued.

While equity performance thus far this year may have astonished some, lower interest rates

have been a shock to most.  At this time last year, I was writing about fears that the Federal

Reserves plan to begin reducing long-term bond purchases (tapering) would lead to higher

interest  rates  and  be,  at  the  very  least,  disruptive  to  U.S.  equity  markets.   Well,  after  six

months of tapering not only are our stocks higher, but long-term interest rates have actually

fallen.   On  December  31,  2013  the  benchmark  10-year  Treasury  note  yielded  3.03%  and  on

June 30, 2014 it was 2.53%, a decline of 50 basis points!  Yields on other longer-dated fixed

income instruments, such as corporate and municipal bonds, fell in similar fashion often

more.

The surprise decline in long-term interest rates is important for many reasons; I will men-

tion  a  few.    First,  it  serves  as  an  important  reminder  that  the  consensus  is  often  wrong;

1


Chairmans Commentary

frequently so on matters of macroeconomics. This lesson never gets old.  Second, it has given

companies  more  time  to  raise  cheap  capital  to  reinvest  internally,  make  acquisitions,  or

reconstitute their capital structures all of which often leads to per-share intrinsic value

growth.  Most of the businesses we invest in have completed one or more of these activities

in 2014.  Lastly, the lower interest rate environment has extended and intensified the agony

of those seeking to live off interest generated from fixed income securities.  With increased

pressure,  some  have  stretched  even  further  in  credit  quality  or  duration  to  achieve  a  tar-

geted yield and, we fear, may be taking on risks of which they are unaware. This may lead

to some unpleasant surprises.

As  estimated,  the  companies  in  which  we  invest  have  collectively  grown  their  earnings  

and  earning  power    during  the  first  half  of  2014.   Reflecting  this,  all  three  FAM  mutual

funds ended this time period in positive territory performing admirably in an equity mar-

ket that has favored the lower-quality companies we avoid. The Value Fund rose 6.29%, the

Equity-Income Fund grew 5.52%, and the Small Cap Fund was up 0.68%.  By our estimates,

business  values  of  our  holdings  appreciated  more  than  their  share  prices.   Over  time,  we

expect these two to track pretty closely but values and prices often diverge in the short run.

We have invested in a collection of businesses with impressive earnings power.  On a dollar-

weighted basis, our holdings reported a return of 15% on equity over the past year, with only

a modest amount of leverage.  Adjusting for dividend payouts these companies also reported

that  they  grew  nearly  12%  over  the  past  year  without  the  use  of  new,  potentially  dilutive

capital.  This, along with other avenues for value enhancement including acquisitions, cost

cutting, and share repurchases, should help drive growth of the value of our businesses.

In the first half of 2014 we added 10 new companies to our Funds and sold 10.   This parity

is just a coincidence, but it is indicative of opportunistic upgrades to our portfolios swap-

ping  good  companies  for  equal  or  better  enterprises  that  have  better  return  potential.

Indeed, with a couple of exceptions, our sales were the kind we like:   good companies that

had  appreciated  to  levels  that  diminished  our  margin  of  safety  beyond  what  we  think  is

reasonable.  The businesses we added to our holdings, some of which you will read about in

the  Fund  Managers  letters,  run  the  gamut  from  banks  to  retailers  and  land  developers  to

hotels.   Shared  among  them,  though,  are  key  characteristics    they  are  quality,  well-run,

conservatively-financed businesses.

For many, the World Cup will produce no surprises merely because there were no expecta-

tions.  For the same reason, we will not likely be startled by stock performance in the back

half of 2014.  Absent a large decline, though, we do expect it to continue to be difficult to

2

Chairmans Commentary

find great companies selling at bargain prices.  You can rest assured, however, that we are

not deterred.  We will travel further, make more phone calls, read more 10Ks, and turn over

more  stones  as  we  seek  to  preserve  capital  and  achieve  positive  risk-adjusted  returns  for

you our shareholders.

FAM Funds Expense Data

As of June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

As  a  shareholder  of  the  Funds,  you  incur  ongoing  costs,  including  management  fees,  and

other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs

(in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare  these  costs  with  the  ongoing  costs  of

investing in other mutual funds.

The  Example  is  based  on  an  investment  of  $1,000  at  the  beginning  of  the  period  and  held

for the entire period (1/1/2014 to 6/30/2014).

Actual Expenses

Line  (A)  of  the  following  tables  provides  information  about  actual  account  values  and  ac-

tual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you in-

vested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account

value  by  $1,000  (for  example,  an  $8,600  account  value  divided  by  $1,000  =  8.6),  then  mul-

tiply  the  result  by  the  number  in  the  line  for  your  share  class  under  the  heading  entitled

Expenses  Paid  During  Period  to  estimate  the  expenses  you  paid  on  your  account  during

this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

Line (B) of the following table provides information about hypothetical account values and

hypothetical expenses based on the Funds actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of re-

turn of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds actual return. The hypotheti-

cal  account  values  and  expenses  may  not  be  used  to  estimate  the  actual  ending  account

balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the

ongoing  costs  of  investing  in  the  Fund  and  other  funds.  To  do  so,  compare  this  5%  hypo-

thetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports

of other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs

only. Therefore, line (B) of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not

help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds.

FAM Value Fund

June 30, 2014

Dear Fellow Value Fund Shareholder,

News  from  around  the  globe  may  be  unsettling,  but  U.S.  stocks  continued  their  record-

setting pace for the first half of the year. Political challenges and unrest made headlines in

Russia and Iraq, but the stock market shrugged off these concerns with both the Dow Jones

Industrial Average and the S&P 500 Index hitting numerous all-time highs during the first

half of 2014. The biggest surprise in the financial markets this year is that interest rates in

the U.S. declined compared to unanimous predictions of an increase.

Performance Detail

At  June  30,  2014  the  net  asset  value  per  share  of  the  FAM  Value  Fund  was  $65.70.   This

represents  an  increase  of  6.29%  from  the  beginning  of  the  year.  For  comparison,  the  S&P

500 Index increased 7.14%, the Russell Midcap Index increased 8.67%, and the Russell 2000

Index increased 3.19%.

Best Performers

The best performer, on a dollar-weighted basis, was EOG Resources with a gain of $10.314

million. EOG continues to be a successful investment since our original purchase in 2009.

Under former CEO Mark Pappa, EOG made a transition from a natural gas to an oil compa-

ny  during  the  last  five  years.  This  transition  proved  visionary  as  oil  prices  have  remained

elevated since 2011. The transition to a new CEO has not changed the EOG story as the busi-

ness remains committed to a strong balance sheet, high returns on capital, and a growing

dividend.

The  Funds  second-best  performer  was  Zebra  Technologies  with  a  gain  of  $9.221  million.

Zebra performed well due to an acceleration of sales in its core business and the announce-

ment  of  a  large  acquisition.In April Zebra announced that it was acquiring the Enterprise

Business owned by Motorola Solutions for $3.45 billion. While the stock dropped more than

10% on the announcement of the acquisition, it quickly rebounded and hit new highs dur-

ing  the  second  quarter.  We  took  the  opportunity  to  sell  all  of  our  shares  in  Zebra  during

this period. To complete the acquisition Zebra will be borrowing $3 billion which we believe

is  an  excessive  amount  of  debt  given  the  cash  flow  of  the  combined  company.  While  the

new  corporation  may  be  successful,  we  decided  to  maintain  our  discipline  of  investing  in

businesses with strong balance sheets and sold the stock.

The  third-best  performer  was  Protective  Life  with  a  gain  of  $8.067  million.  The  price  in-

crease  was  also  the  result  of  an  acquisition,  but  in  this  case  Protective  is  the  seller    not

the buyer. In June Protective announced it was being purchased by a large Japanese insur-

ance  company  for  $70  a  share.  It  is  bittersweet  for  us  to  see  Protective  go  as  it  has  one  of

the  better  management  teams  in  the  life  insurance  business  and  is  a  longtime  holding  in

6


FAM Value Fund

the Fund. However, the $70 takeover offer is an excellent price and offers us full value for

our shares.

Worst Performers

In the six months ended June 30, 2014, our most significant losses were in the retail indus-

try. The entire retail sector has been a difficult area in 2014. The brutal winter of 2013-14,

along  with  increased  competition  from  online  commerce,  has  weighed  on  retail  results

everywhere.

The  Funds  worst  performer,  on  a  dollar-weighted  basis,  was  Bed  Bath  and  Beyond  with

a  loss  of  -$7.921  million.  The  companys  stock  hit  an  all-time  high  of  $80  at  the  end  of  last

year.  Since  that  time,  Bed  Bath  has  reported  two  disappointing  quarters  of  earnings.  The

poor performance is due to a combination of items including cold weather, increased com-

petition,  and  its  investment  spending  on  new  initiatives.  After  a  29%  price  decline  year-

to-date,  the  stock  looks  inexpensive  at  less  than  12  times  last  years  earnings  per  share.

Bed Bath maintains a fortress balance sheet with more than $500 million in cash and is an

aggressive buyer of its own shares.

The second-worst performer was also a retailer, Ross Stores, with a loss of -$5.041 million.

We  have  written  about  Ross  Stores  over  the  years  as  the  stock  has  been  a  top  performer

several  times.  While  many  retailers  have  reported  declining  earnings,  Ross  continues  to

grow.  Earnings  per  share  increased  last  year  by  10%  and  this  years  first  quarter  results

grew 7%.  We still believe that Ross Stores remains relatively insulated from the challenges

in retail as the companys offering of brand name fashions for less remains very popular.

Additionally,  their  physical  stores  allow  consumers  to  partake  in  the  treasure  hunt  as

new merchandise arrives every week.

The  third-worst  performer  was  Home  BancShares  which  generated  a  loss  of  -$2.450  mil-

lion.  The  good  news  is  that  Home  Bancshares  was  a  very  successful  investment  for  the

Fund.  We  first  purchased  shares  in  Home  in  early  2011  at  around  $10  (adjusted  for  stock

splits).  At  that  time  investors  were  still  licking  their  wounds  from  the  financial  crisis  and

were  suspicious  of  banks.  We  felt  that  Home  BancShares  was  a  well-run  bank  with  con-

siderable  financial  strength  that  could  take  advantage  of  weaker  competitors.  This  is  ex-

actly  what  happened  as  the  bank  announced  a  number  of  acquisitions    growing  their

assets  from  $3.8  billion,  at  the  time  of  our  purchase,  to  almost  $7  billion  by  December  31,

2013. This success was recognized in the stocks valuation which we estimated to be at the

high-end when 2013 closed. Consequently, we sold all of the Funds shares above $30 in the

first quarter. The $30+ price was considerably higher than our original stock purchase, but

lower than the stocks price on 12/31/13 this created the loss.

FAM Value Fund

Portfolio Activity

Purchases

We purchased stock in three new companies during the first half of the year: CDW Corpo-

ration, Starwood Hotels, and T. Rowe Price Group.

CDW  is  a  distributor  of  technology  equipment  and  services  to  customers  in  both  business

and  government  segments.  This  is  the  second  time  we  have  invested  in  the  company.  We

originally  purchased  the  stock  in  2005.  Two  years  later  CDW  was  taken  over  by  a  private

equity firm. After six years of private ownership, CDW was taken public late last year and

this gave us the opportunity to repurchase the stock. As is typical under private ownership,

the  business  was  saddled  with  a  fair  amount  of  debt.  As  CDW  became  public,  its  manage-

ment  team  indicated  that  they  were  committed  to  using  the  companys  significant  free

cash  flow  to  reduce  that  debt.  As  we  track  their  progress  so  far,  they  are  doing  exactly  as

they said and debt is declining at a fast pace. Each dollar of debt that is repaid creates one

dollar  of  new  value  for  the  stock  holders.  We  believe  that  CDW  will  grow  its  core  business

at  a  modest  pace  and,  through  the  smart  use  of  free  cash  flow,  will  have  good  returns  for

its shareholders.

Starwood  Hotels  is  an  owner  and  operator  of  hotels  around  the  world.  Starwood  operates

well-known  brands  like  Sheraton,  Westin,  St.  Regis,  and  W  hotels.  It  is  a  global  company

with  hotels  in  100  countries  and  is  in  the  process  of  executing  a  time-tested  strategy  in

the hotel business called asset-lite. During this process, Starwood is selling hotels to other

investors  and  retaining  the  right  to  manage  the  hotel  for  a  fee.  This  model  has  been  very

successful  for  other  large  hotel  enterprises  and  should  create  more  than  $3  billion  of  free

cash flow to deploy for the benefit of its shareholders over the next few years.

T. Rowe Price Group is an investment advisory firm that offers mutual funds and managed

accounts to a wide range of customers. The company has been very successful in the retire-

ment market. T. Rowe maintains a fortress balance sheet with more than $3 billion in cash

and  investments  along  with  no  debt.  The  company  is  well-run  with  excellent  long-term

earnings  growth  and  more  than  20  years  of  dividend  increases.  At  our  purchase  price  the

stock is trading in the lower end of its valuation range over the last decade.

Sales

In addition to the sales of Home BancShares and Zebra Technologies detailed above, there

were two other significant sales: TCF Financial and VCA Antech.

We  owned  shares  in  TCF  Financial  for  more  than  a  decade  and  it  proved  to  be  a  poor  in-

vestment. TCF was impacted by a host of difficulties over the years including a severe set-

back  from  the  financial  crisis.  We  owned  a  number  of  financial  stocks  through  the  crisis

and many of these stocks have gone on to all-time highs. TCF was different as it struggled

with  credit  losses  long  after  most  banks  were  reporting  improved  results.  Additionally,

8

FAM Value Fund

TCF relied on consumer banking fees that were reduced in post-crisis regulations. We most

certainly should have sold the stock earlier, but it always seemed to be a good bargain. We

did  add  to  the  position  at  very  low  prices  in  2012  and  made  an  excellent  return  on  those

purchases, but our overall results were poor.

Our  ownership  of  VCA  Antech  is  a  better  story.  VCA  Antech  is  the  leading  provider  of  pet

health care services in the country.  We held a small position in the Fund in 2012 and added

to  it  in  2013  when  we  believed  the  stock  was  discounted  nicely  and  the  business  was  im-

proving.   We  were  right  on  both  counts  and  sold  the  stock  this  year  after  a  good  one-year

return.

Outlook

Commentary  from  the  media  concerning  investing  usually  revolves  around  big  themes

like  economic  growth  or  geopolitical  developments.  We  tend  to  focus  on  individual  com-

panies  because  we  believe  the  results  of  a  business  will  be  reflected  in  its  stock  price  over

time. As we look at the state of American commerce today through the lens of the compa-

nies  in  which  we  invest,  we  see  a  number  of  positive  trends  for  stocks.  First  of  all,  stock

prices follow profits and the collective earnings of American industry are at record levels.

In fact, we expect 2014 to be the fourth consecutive year of record profits for the corpora-

tions in the S&P 500 Index. These earnings are the result of modest sales growth and excel-

lent cost control as many businesses are posting record margins.

In addition to profitability, there are two other important trends. The first is that the merg-

ers  and  acquisition  market  is  very  active.  Companies  are  using  their  cash  flow  and  the

ample financing environment to grow their businesses through acquisitions. For example,

six  of  the  Top  10  Holdings  in  the  Fund  have  been  involved  in  at  least  one  acquisition  this

year.  Our  holdings,  Brown  &  Brown  and  Mednax,  have  completed  multiple  transactions.

These acquisitions increase their sales and profits allowing them to grow faster in a slow-

growing  economy.  The  other  important  trend  is  that  management  teams  are  getting  bet-

ter at allocating the cash that their businesses generate. The current trend of shareholder

activists is well-recognized in corporate boardrooms and directors and executives alike are

sharpening their focus on using resources efficiently. As a result, we are seeing increased

dividends and smart share repurchases at many companies whose stock we own.

Of  course,  we  are  not  the  only  ones  to  recognize  these  trends  and  the  good  performance

of  businesses  is  currently  reflected  in  the  price  you  have  to  pay  to  purchase  their  stock.

We  see  most  stocks  at  fair  value,  certainly  not  cheap,  and  it  is  much  harder  to  find  a  bar-

gain  compared  to  three  years  ago.  However,  the  good  news  is  that  we  do  not  necessarily

need  new  ideas  at  this  time.  We  believe  that  each  of  the  Funds  holdings  is  solid  and  well-

positioned  for  the  future.  They  also  meet  our  four  core  criteria:  quality/distinct  business;

strong  management  team;  financially  strong;  and  selling  at  a  reasonable  price  based  on

our estimate of their economic worth. We are optimistic about the long term and will con-

tinue to work diligently on your behalf.

FAM Equity-Income Fund

June 30, 2014

Dear Fellow FAM Equity-Income Fund Shareholder,

Highlights

      FAM Equity-Income Fund posted a return of 5.52% for the first half of 2014.

      The 5-year annualized growth rate of the dividends for the Funds holdings was

9.8% as of 6/30/2014.

The  strategy  of  the  Fund  is  to  invest  in  high-quality  companies  that  pay  solid  dividends

and we like these dividends to grow over time.  This can be a great advantage to sharehold-

ers  because  the  dividend  yield,  based  on  the  original  cost  basis  of  the  investment,  grows

as  well.   Our  team  handpicks  each  investment  in  the  Fund  through  our  active  research

process.   Due  to  the  fact  that  we  spend  so  much  time  getting  to  know  these  investments,

we  want  them  to  contribute  to  the  performance  of  the  Fund  for  many  years.  We  have  no

interest  in  selling  holdings  just  to  make  a  few  percentage  points  of  return  before  moving

on to the next short-term trade.  We are looking for investments which will compound over

the long term; this has been the Funds philosophy since its inception in 1996.

Performance Detail

For  the  first  half  of  the  year  the  FAM  Equity-Income  Fund  appreciated  5.52%,  compared

to  the  S&P  500  Index  which  appreciated  7.14%,  Russell  Midcap  Index  which  rose  8.67%,

and Russell 2000 Index which increased 3.19%.   The Lipper Equity Income category which

tracks  funds  with  a dividend strategy appreciated 7.27%.   The strong stock market perfor-

mance continues to propel equities higher and the Fund participated in this upward trend.

Energy was our best performing sector in the Fund due to the turmoil in Ukraine and Iraq.

The  technology  sector  also  made  a  healthy  contribution  to  performance.    The  consumer

sector had the largest negative impact on performance year-to-date, but also provided the

best opportunities to purchase stock in quality companies at deeply discounted prices.

Best Performers

The  best  performing  company  in  the  portfolio,  on  a  dollar-weighted  basis,  was  EOG  Re-

sources  with  a  gain  of  $2.569  million.   EOG  continues  to  be  a  successful  investment  since

our original purchase below $40 in 2009 to the recent quarter-end price of $116 per share.

Under former CEO Mark Pappa, EOG made a transition from a natural gas to an oil compa-

ny  during  the  last  five  years.  This  transition  proved  visionary  as  oil  prices  have  remained

elevated since 2011. The transition to a new CEO has not changed the EOG story as the busi-

ness remains committed to a strong balance sheet, high returns on capital, and a growing

dividend.

CDW  Corp.  contributed  $1.487  million  to  the  value  of  the  Fund  as  the  stock  appreciated

17

FAM Equity-Income Fund

38%  in  the  first  half  of  the  year  and  was  the  second-best  performer.   CDW  is  a  distributor

of technology equipment and services to customers in both business and government seg-

ments.  The  corporation  reported  nice  earnings  growth  in  the  first  quarter  and  manage-

ment  continued  to  pay  down  high-cost  debt.   The  percent  of  ownership  by  private  equity

also continued to decline.

The third-best performer, US Ecology, added $1.379 million to the value of the Fund with a

total return on the stock of 30.4%.  US Ecology is a leading North American provider of en-

vironmental services to commercial and government entities. The company reported very

strong results for the first quarter which is typically a slow quarter due to winter weather.

Additionally,  management  made  a  large  acquisition  of  Environmental  Quality  Company.

This  acquisition  makes  US  Ecology  even  more  valuable  in  our  eyes;  however,  it  does  have

some  near-term  execution  risk  as  management  integrates  the  organization.   The  stock  is

up 35% year-to-date and 80% for the last 12 months.

Worst Performers

The toy company Mattel, Inc. was the worst performer, on a dollar-weighted basis, and de-

tracted from the value of the Fund by -$1.075 million.  While Mattel has been a strong com-

pounder  for  several  years,  it  reported  weak  results  in  both  the  fourth  quarter  (Christmas

season)  and  first  quarter.   The  company  struggled  with  a  higher  percentage  of  toy  sales

coming from online sources this left inventory levels too high at brick and mortar retail

stores.   This  is  a  fixable  issue  and  management  is  dedicating  great  effort  to  address  this

changing  dynamic  in  the  sales  channel.   Management  is  also  working  on  better  targeting

their advertising budget toward online sales.   We bought additional shares after the stock

declined which we believe will be advantageous to the longer-term return of the Fund.

Discount  apparel  retailer  Ross  Stores  was  the  second-worst  performer  with  a  loss  of

-$0.914 million to the value of the Fund.  The business reported earnings for their first fis-

cal quarter that were at the high end of managements guidance, yet the stock declined in

tandem with other retailers.  Ross is executing very well in this tough environment and we

believe  it  is  well-positioned  to  continue  growing  into  the  future.   We  also  feel  it  remains

relatively insulated from the challenges in retail as the companys offering of brand name

fashions  for  less  remains  very  popular.   Ross  only  has  1,300  stores  in  33  states  and  we  be-

lieve  it  can  support  another  500  to  1,000  stores  providing  a  long  runway  for  growth.   Ad-

ditionally,  management  continuously  buys  back  stock  and  increased  the  dividend  by  19%

over  last  year.   Its  worth  noting  that  the  Fund  has  owned  shares  in  Ross  Stores  for  more

than a decade.  Over the last 10 years the stock has compounded at 18.5% compared to 7.8%

for the S&P 500 Index.  We are not concerned that the stock price return of Ross Stores lags

the S&P 500 for a six-month period.

18

FAM Equity-Income Fund

Tupperware Brands, also in the consumer space, was the third-worst performer declining

in  value  by  -$0.386  million  due  to  issuing  guidance  for  the  current  year  that  was  below

analysts  expectations.   Management  is  working  to  stabilize  and  transform  their  beauty

business in Mexico which is experiencing some competitive pressure from discounting as

well as a sales force reshuffle.   The good news is that Tupperware continues to experience

double-digit growth in emerging markets which should provide continued organic growth

opportunities  going  forward.  Moreover,  share  repurchases  and  dividends  this  year  will

represent  greater  than  $6.00/share  returned  to  shareholders.    In  the  long  term,  we  are

happy  to  own  part  of  a  business  with  strong  growth  opportunities  run  by  a  management

team  dedicated  to  returning  considerable  amounts  of  cash  to  shareholders  in  the  form  of

dividends and buybacks.   This is another case where we added to our position as the stock

declined.

Portfolio Activity

We  took  advantage  of  the  recent  dislocation  in  the  retail  industry  to  purchase  two  new

names in the portfolio.   We initiated a position in American Eagle Outfitters which strug-

gled last year and so far this year.  The stock declined 30% in 2013 and another 20% through

the  first  six  months  of  2014.  We  believe  the  stock  has  declined  enough  to  put  the  odds  of

success  in  this  investment  strongly  in  our  favor.   American  Eagle  has  no  long-term  debt

and  a  large  war  chest  of  cash.    Their  strong  financial  position  should  provide  the  busi-

ness  with  staying  power  as  some  of  their  missteps  are  corrected.   Additionally,  American

Eagles  Chairman  beneficially  owns  8%  of  the  stock  which  provides  him  with  plenty  of

incentive to get them back on track.  Finally, the dividend yield is 4.5%.

Late  in  the  quarter  we  bought  shares  in  the  shoe  retailer  DSW,  Inc.  after  they  reported  a

sub-par quarter.  The stock declined by 40% from year-end which gave us an attractive en-

try point to buy shares.  The stock has subsequently rebounded by 13% already making this

a  successful  investment,  and  it  has  a  dividend  yield  of  2.7%  as  of  quarter-end.   We  expect

this dividend to grow over time.

Also  in  the  quarter  we  continued  to  build  our  position  in  CDW,  which  is  now  nearly  4%  of

the Funds assets.   Additionally, we bought more shares in Mattel, McGrath RentCorp, and

Tupperware Brands.

We  exited  our  position  in  CA  Technologies  because  we  thought  the  valuation  was  over-

extended.    The  stock  appreciated  53%  last  year  and  we  didnt  see  any  evidence  that  the

company  was  going  to  be  able  to  get  back  on  a  growth  track.   We  bought  this  position  at  a

modest  valuation  and  a  4%  dividend  yield.   Since  we  exited  the  position,  the  stock  has  de-

clined 12%.  We also exited our position in Dr. Pepper Snapple Group so we could invest the

proceeds in a company that we estimate has better long-term growth prospects.

19

FAM Equity-Income Fund

There were a number of positions that we trimmed due to valuations that were at the high-

er end of their historical valuation range.   These companies included IDEX Corp., OneBea-

con Insurance, and US Ecology.

Outlook

We  continue  to  seek  investments  with  growth  potential  as  well  as  strong  balance  sheets.

This combination should allow companies to grow their dividends paid to shareholders as

well  as  weather  any  future  economic  turbulence  that  may  arise.   We  recognize  that  the

market is trading at all-time highs and this makes bargains more difficult to find; howev-

er, at any given time there is always a sub-sector of the market that is unloved by investors.

This historically has been fertile ground to till for the next crop of investments.

We continue to work diligently on your behalf.  Thank you.

FAM Small Cap Fund

June 30, 2014

Dear Fellow FAM Small Cap Fund Shareholder,

A year ago we reminded investors that, We are focused on building wealth over long periods

of time.  Short-term results will ebb and flow.  Although we have outperformed over shorter-

time periods thus far, even the best investors sustain both short- and medium-term periods

of underperformance throughout their careers.  This may materialize even though the under-

lying intrinsic values of the portfolios companies may be increasing in value.   Patience is

key and over time stock prices reflect a companys earnings power. 6/30/2013 FAM Small

Cap Fund Semi-Annual Letter

Despite our continued outperformance since inception, these comments were prescient and

we  have  lagged  the  Russell  2000,  our  benchmark,  year-to-date  and  over  the  past  year.

Fortunately, our comments regarding the intrinsic value of our companies have also been

prescient.  In aggregate, our holdings continue to grow their intrinsic value giving us oppor-

tunities to put capital to work across many names in the portfolio at more attractive valu-

ations.  For the long-term shareholder this may be a positive development because our goal

is to continue to outperform over longer-term periods of time.

Further exacerbating short-term relative results has been a preference in the market toward

speculative  and  lower-quality  investments.   With  a  continuation  of  the  low  interest  rate

environment and strong markets in 2013, we have witnessed investors engaging in riskier

behavior.  We will take no part in this activity as we remain committed to not only growing

capital, but preserving it as well.  We will expand on this market activity later.

Performance Detail

Small caps have underperformed this year, following stellar results last year, as shown by

the relative returns of the Russell 2000 Index versus the S&P 500 Index. The FAM Small Cap

Fund underperformed year-to-date (YTD) and on a one-year basis, but continued its outper-

formance since inception.

Best Performers

The Funds best performer, on a dollar-weighted basis, was Winthrop Realty Trust  with a

gain of $0.965 million year-to-date.  Winthrop was on our worst performers list in each of

our  last  two  letters!   This  goes  to  show  you  that  if  value  creation  is  occurring,  then  it  will

eventually be recognized by the market.  In this case CEO Michael Ashner decided to speed

up the process by announcing the liquidation of the company at a time when valuations for

high-quality  commercial  real  estate  have  increased  quite  substantially,  yet  these  market

prices were not being recognized in the stock.  Recent property sales indicate that there may

still be some upside between now and the eventual complete liquidation of the business.

The second-best performing stock was Skullcandy with a gain of $0.564 million.   This is a

transitional story in which new CEO Hoby Darling, formerly of Nike, is leading the change.

Our  thesis  was  that  the  investor  disfavor  had  gone  too  far  for  a  company  with  potential

earnings power that was much greater than what was being reported as well as net cash on

the  balance  sheet.   Although  progress  had  been  made,  the  stock  market  gave  us  an  oppor-

tunity  that  we  could  not  resist.   Following  better  than  expected  earnings  results  the  stock

rose considerably in one day!   As this price was well above our estimate of intrinsic value,

we sold all of our shares to take advantage of market participants overly joyous mood.

Worst Performers

The worst performing stock, on a dollar-weighted basis, was Destination Maternity with a

loss  of  -$0.598  million  year-to-date.   Despite  being  preceded  by  six  straight  quarters  of

positive same-store sales, the company was not immune to the adverse retail environment

that hit the majority of the apparel industry.  As a result, Destination Maternity twice low-

ered its full-year fiscal 2014 earnings guidance this has weighed heavily on the stock.  We

hate to blame the weather, but living through this winter personally we have no doubt that

it had a negative effect.   Although this is a setback in the short term, we still like the com-

panys niche presence along with managements ability to allocate capital wisely.

The second-worst performing stock was Biglari Holdings with a loss of -$0.452 million.  We

continue  to  believe  that  CEO  Sardar  Biglari  is  building  long-term  shareholder  wealth

through  his  capital  allocation  decisions,  even  if  these  decisions  may  negatively  impact

short-term  results.   One  such  decision  has  been  an  initiative  to  build  out  the  necessary

infrastructure  to  sustain  a  much  larger  Steak  n  Shake  franchise  organization.   This  has

affected  earnings  today,  but  should  create  a  growing,  steady  stream  of  cash  flow  into  the

future. Furthermore, Steak n Shake has continued to grow organically as shown by its 21st

consecutive  quarter  of  positive  same-store  sales  despite  the  negative  weather  and  retail

environment.  Steak n Shake represents the largest operating business at Biglari Holdings,

a company Mr. Biglari views as a cash generating machine.

FAM Small Cap Fund

Portfolio Activity

We  sold  five  companies  completely  in  the  first  half  of  the  year,  including  the  aforemen-

tioned Skullcandy.  Other sales included Americas Car-Mart, Gordmans, Inventure Foods,

and Rofin-Sinar Technologies.  We also purchased five new holdings: Consolidated-Tomoka

Land Co., Hallmark Financial, Hudson Valley Holding Corp., Landauer, and PC Connection.

In each case we felt that we were able to upgrade the portfolio by buying shares in businesses

that were more attractively valued and/or higher quality than our previous holdings.  Our

cash balance ended the quarter at just over 9% as we also added to numerous existing posi-

tions in the portfolio.

Investment vs. Speculation

Today, we believe that speculation has crept into certain corners of the market.  There have

been many consequences of the fallout from the financial crisis and the resulting period of

low interest rates.  These low interest rates have driven investors to chase returns whether

in high-yield bonds, sub-prime auto loans, or in speculative stocks which have taken off in

this easy money environment.  Investors may be turning a blind eye to the increased risk

that accompanies these returns.  Areas fostering speculative activity may include biotech,

small pharma, social media, cloud computing, and alternative energy.

What are some of the signs of overheating?  Lets take a look at returns and use small pharma

and  biotech  as  examples.   Since  the  start  of  2013  small  pharma  and  biotech  stocks  have

outperformed  the  Russell  2000  by  a  wide  margin.   This  has  driven  investors  to  look  in  the

rear view mirror and engage in typical herd-like behavior.  We have seen investor flows into

ETFs related to these two areas pick up significantly.  Furthermore, IPO activity in the space

has been red hot.  In fact, in the first quarter of this there were 26 biotech IPOs a quarterly

record.  This matched the entire year of 2000 when speculation was rampant!

As a whole, we find that these industries have negative earnings and investors are hoping

to find the next great thing before it takes off.  Undoubtedly some of these speculative secu-

rities will turn into the next great businesses, but many more will not have the wherewithal

to survive.  Even so, these are exactly the types of companies that have outperformed over

the  last  couple  of  years  as  investors  have  been  willing  to  take  on  more  risk  (whether  they

know it or not).   As we think about not only return, but also risk, we will avoid jumping on

the bandwagon.

We  believe  that  investing  in  quality,  financially  durable,  well-run  businesses  at  the  right

price is the key to building real wealth over the long term.  Our team conducts in-depth,

30

FAM Small Cap Fund

independent research and analyzes the companies behind the stocks to gain unique insights.

We use this firsthand knowledge and our time-tested process to help mitigate risk and gen-

erate attractive returns.

As Ben Graham once said, Investment is most intelligent when it is most businesslike.

Outlook

Recently,  we  have  become  more  excited  about  our  opportunity  set  as  some  volatility  and

weakness in small caps have created the prospect of purchasing shares at a discount to their

intrinsic  value.   It  is  periods  like  these  that  set  up  future  performance.   We  continue  to

search diligently to find bargain opportunities on your behalf.

Thank you for investing with us in the FAM Small Cap Fund.

FAM Funds - Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1  Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

FAM Value Fund, FAM Equity-Income Fund and FAM Small Cap Fund are each a series of

Fenimore Asset Management Trust, a diversified, open-end management investment

company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Each Fund offers a

single class of shares.  The investment objective of the FAM Value Fund is to maximize

long-term return on capital.  The investment objective of the FAM Equity-Income Fund is

to provide current income and long term capital appreciation from investing primarily in

income-producing equity securities.  The investment objective of the FAM Small Cap Fund

is to maximize long-term return on capital.

The following is a summary of each Funds significant accounting policies, which are in

accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of Ameri-

ca (GAAP),  followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements.

a)    Valuation of Securities

Securities traded on a national securities exchange or admitted to trading on NASDAQ are valued at the last reported sale price or the NASDAQ official closing price. Common stocks for which no sale was reported, and over-the-counter securities, are valued at the last reported bid price. Short-term securities are carried at amortized cost, which approximates value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or have not traded are valued at fair value as determined by procedures established by the Board of Trustees. Investments in Invesco Short Term Treasury Fund are valued at that funds net asset value.

GAAP establishes a three-tier framework for measuring fair value based on a hier-

archy of inputs.  The hierarchy distinguishes between market data obtained from

independent sources (observable inputs) and the Funds own market assumptions

(unobservable inputs).  These inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds

investments.  These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

Level 2 other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for identical

securities in inactive markets and quoted prices for similar securities)

Level 3 significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds own assumptions in

determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indica-

tion of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

41

FAM Funds - Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value each Funds net assets as of

June 30, 2014:

FAM Value Fund

Level 1

Common Stocks

$888,857,831

Temporary Investments

$  53,643,550

Temporary Investments

Total Investments in Securities

$  58,987,652

During the period ended June 30, 2014 there were no Level 2 or 3 inputs used to value

the Funds net assets.  Refer to the Statement of Investments to view securities segre-

gated by industry type.

b)      Federal Income Taxes

It is each Funds policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue

Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its tax-

able income to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income or excise

tax is required.

GAAP requires uncertain tax positions to be recognized, measured, presented and

disclosed in the financial statements.  For the period ended June 30, 2014 manage-

ment has evaluated the tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of

42

FAM Funds - Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

preparing the Funds tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are more-

likely-than-not of being sustained upon review by the applicable tax authority.

Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be

recorded as a tax expense in the current year.  Based on the evaluation, management

has determined that no liability for unrecognized tax expense is required.  Tax years

2010 through present remain subject to examination by U.S. and New York taxing

authorities.  No examination of the Funds tax filings is presently in progress.

c)      Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires manage-

ment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets

and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the

financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net

assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from

those estimates.

d)      Other

Securities transactions are recorded on trade date. Realized gains and losses on

securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Interest income is ac-

crued as earned and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash

dividends are included in dividends on the ex-dividend date at the fair market value

of the shares received. The Funds record distributions received in excess of income

from underlying investments as a reduction of cost of investments and/or realized

gain. Such amounts are based on estimates if actual amounts are not available, and

actual amounts of income, realized gain and return of capital may differ from the

estimated amounts. The Funds adjust the estimated amounts of the components

of distributions (and consequently its net investment income) as an increase to

unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) and realized gain/(loss) on investments as

necessary once the issuers provide information about the actual composition of the

distributions. Distributions  to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Distributions to shareholders are determined in accordance with income tax regula-

tions and may differ from those determined for financial statement purposes. To

the extent these differences are permanent such amounts are reclassified within the

capital accounts.

Note 2  Investment Advisory Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Under each Investment Advisory Contract, each series pays an investment advisory fee to

Fenimore Asset Management, Inc. (the Advisor) equal, on an annual basis, to 1% of each

Funds average daily net assets. The Advisor has entered into a voluntary agreement with

each Fund to reduce the investment advisory fee for each Fund through December 31,

2014 to 0.95% of the Funds average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. No such waiver

43

FAM Funds - Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

was required for the period ended June 30, 2014. Thomas Putnam is an officer and trustee

of the Funds and also an officer and director of the Advisor.  The Chief Compliance Officer

is an officer of the Funds and compensated by the Funds in the amount of $42,984 as well

as an officer of the Advisor and compensated additionally by the Advisor.

The Investment Advisory Contract requires the Advisor to reimburse the Funds its

expenses to the extent that such expenses, including the advisory fee, for the fiscal year

exceed 2.00% of the average daily net assets. For the period ended June 30, 2014 the Advi-

sor contractually agreed to reimburse the FAM Value Fund for its expenses to the extent

such expenses exceeded 1.28% of the average daily net assets; the FAM Equity-Income

Fund for its expenses to the extent such expenses exceeded 1.40% of the average daily net

assets; and the FAM Small Cap Fund for its expenses to the extent such expenses exceed

1.50% of the average daily net assets.  No such reimbursement was required for the period

ended June 30, 2014 for the FAM Value Fund, FAM Equity-Income Fund, and FAM Small

Cap Fund.

FAM Shareholder Services, Inc. (FSS), a company under common control with the Advi-

sor, serves as shareholder servicing agent and receives a monthly fee of $2.33 per share-

holder account.  For the period ended June 30, 2014, shareholder servicing agent fees paid

to FSS were as follows:

FAM Value Fund

$205,386

FAM Equity-Income Fund

$  35,644

FAM Small Cap Fund

$   12,971

Additionally, FSS serves as the Fund administrative agent and receives an annual fee

of 0.085% on the first $750,000,000 of the Funds average daily net assets, and 0.075%

thereafter.  For the period ended June 30, 2014, the Funds administrative fees paid to FSS

amounted to:

FAM Value Fund

$380,267

FAM Equity-Income Fund

$  62,447

FAM Small Cap Fund

$  21,829

Fenimore Securities, Inc. (FSI), a company also under common control with the Advi-

sor, acts as distributor of the Funds shares.  FSI receives no compensation for providing

distribution services to the Funds.

$3,000,000, respectively.

Borrowings under the agreement bear interest at the prime rate as announced by the

lending bank.  The line of credit is available until December 1, 2014, when any advances

are to be repaid.  During the period ended June 30, 2014, no amounts were drawn from

the available lines.

47

FAM Funds - Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 7.  Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety

of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications.  The Funds

maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future

claims that might be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred.  However, based

on the experience of the Advisor, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

Note 8.  Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements

were available to be issued, and has determined that there were no subsequent events

requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
