Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present the Steward Funds Semi-Annual Report for the period ending October 31, 2012. The Semi-Annual Report includes commentary on the Funds’ screening process, as well as performance reviews and current strategy from the portfolio managers.

Steward Funds Offer Diversification to Your Portfolio

The asset allocation decision is one of the most important decisions an investor will make and the Steward Funds make it possible to achieve a diverse asset allocation for your investment portfolio. The Funds offer fixed income, large-cap equity, small/mid-cap equity, international equity and global equity income for your investing solutions.

What are the Steward Funds’ Faith-Based Screens?

Did you know faith-based screens are applied to all of the investments within the Steward Funds family? The Steward Funds seek to avoid investment in pornography and abortion, as well as companies that are substantial producers of alcohol, gambling and tobacco. The Funds’ screening resource firm, CFS Consulting Services, LLC, has extensive expertise in the faith-based investing business and brings a wealth of knowledge of screening for Christian-based investors.

The following details each of the Fund’s annual performance and strategies.

STEWARD LARGE CAP ENHANCED INDEX FUND

Fund Performance

For the six month period ending October 31, 2012, the Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund returned 1.02% for the Individual class shares and 1.20% for the Institutional class shares. The return for the S&P 500 for the same period was 2.16%. The S&P Pure index component returns were: -2.04% for the S&P 500 Pure Growth and 5.05% for the S&P 500 Pure Value index.

Factors Affecting Performance

At October 31, 2012, the Fund’s multi-index structure was allocated to the S&P 500, S&P 500 Pure Growth and S&P 500 Pure Value at 60%, 20% and 20% respectively. The Fund has maintained this allocation for the entire six month period. The equity market was primarily driven by government intervention in the financial markets with the Federal Reserve implementing QE3 (Quantitative Easing 3). This program buys $40 billion worth of mortgage bonds per month with no set termination date. Across the pond, the European Central Bank has also introduced a new bond buying program that provides for unlimited purchases of one to three year sovereign debt in the secondary market. The announcement of these programs triggered a sharp rise in equity valuations during the month of September. Growth and value style momentum experienced some volatility as the equity market looked forward to U.S. election results in November.

The more style focused S&P 500 Pure Growth and S&P 500 Pure Value indices when combined have slightly underperformed their non-pure counterparts over the period contributing to the Fund’s lower relative return. The higher weighted style focused companies such as Monster Beverage Corp. (-31.31%) and Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (-38.54%) were the most significant factors.

Performance of the Fund can also be affected by faith-based investment policies which avoid investments in pornography and abortion, as well as companies that are substantial producers of alcohol, tobacco products and gambling. For the six month period ending October 31, 2012, the faith-based investment policies had a net negative performance impact on the Fund. Companies such as Merck & Co., Inc. (abortion/life ethics) and Comcast Corp. (pornography) substantially outperformed the benchmark with returns of +18.66% and +24.86% respectively.

Compensating for a specific restricted industry or company whose total return deviates dramatically from the overall Index is extremely difficult regardless of its weight within that Index.

Current Strategy

The Fund’s strategy is to provide effective diversified large cap equity exposure while adhering to faith-based investment policies. In addition, the Fund seeks to outperform its benchmark through selective allocation between growth and value style securities. This is accomplished by utilizing three subcomponents that represent an appropriate large cap pure growth, large cap pure value and large cap blend benchmark. The Fund will generally not attempt to allocate preferences in one industry over another or in one security over another versus its subcomponent benchmark allocations except to comply with its faith-based investment policies.

STEWARD SMALL-MID CAP ENHANCED INDEX FUND

Fund Performance

For the six month period ending October 31, 2012, the Steward Small Mid-Cap Enhanced Index Fund returned -0.20% for the Individual class shares and -0.07% for the Institutional class shares. The return for the S&P 1000 for the same period was 0.16%. The S&P Pure index component returns were: -0.92% for the S&P 1000 Pure Growth and 0.75% for the S&P 1000 Pure Value index.

Factors Affecting Performance

At October 31, 2012, the Fund’s multi-index structure was allocated to the S&P 1000, S&P 1000 Pure Growth and S&P 1000 Pure Value at 60%, 20% and 20% respectively. The Fund has maintained this allocation for the entire six month period. The equity market was primarily driven by government intervention in the financial markets with the Federal Reserve implementing QE3. This program buys $40 billion worth of mortgage bonds per month with no set termination date. Across the pond, the European Central Bank has also introduced a new bond buying program that provides for unlimited purchases of one to three year sovereign debt in the secondary market. The announcement of these programs triggered a sharp rise in equity valuations during the month of September. Growth and value style momentum experienced some volatility as the equity market looked forward to U.S. election results in November.

The more style focused S&P 1000 Pure Growth and S&P 1000 Pure Value indices when combined, slightly underperformed their non-pure counterparts over the period contributing negatively to the Fund’s relative return. The higher weighted style focused companies such as VOXX International Corp. (-50.99%) and ITT Educational Services, Inc. (-67.45%) were the primary factors.

Performance of the Fund can also be affected by faith-based investment policies which avoid investments in pornography and abortion, as well as companies that are substantial producers of alcohol, tobacco products and gambling. For the six month period ending October 31, 2012, the faith-based investment policies had a positive performance impact on the Fund. Companies such as WMS Industries Inc. (gambling) and Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (pornography) underperformed the benchmark with returns of -32.97% and -20.95% respectively.

Compensating for a specific industry or company whose total return deviates dramatically from the overall Index is extremely difficult regardless of its weight within that Index.

Current Strategy

The Fund’s strategy is to provide effective diversified small-mid cap equity exposure while adhering to faith-based investment policies. In addition, the Fund seeks to outperform its benchmark through selective allocation between growth and value style securities. This is accomplished by utilizing three subcomponents that represent an appropriate small-mid cap pure growth, small-mid cap pure value and small-mid cap blend benchmark. The Fund will generally not attempt to allocate preferences in one industry over another or in one security over another versus its subcomponent benchmark allocations except to comply with its cultural values investment policies.

STEWARD INTERNATIONAL ENHANCED INDEX FUND

Fund Performance

For the six month period ending October 31, 2012, the Steward International Enhanced Index Fund returned -0.11% for the Individual class shares and 0.07% for the Institutional class shares. The return for the S&P ADR Index was 2.60%. To represent the emerging markets component, the BLDRS Emerging Markets 50 ADR Index Fund returned -4.07% for the same time period.

Factors Affecting Performance

At October 31, 2012, the Fund’s duel-index structure was allocated to the S&P ADR Index and BLDRS Emerging Markets 50 ADR Index Fund at 80% and 20% respectively representing a tilt towards emerging markets. This allocation was in effect for

the entire six month period. The continuing fiscal issues facing the Euro-zone countries which include the funding of the European Financial Stability Facility as well as the eventual recapitalization of the affected banks remain significant obstacles to economic growth. The European Central Bank introduced a new bond buying program in September that provides for unlimited purchases of one to three year sovereign debt in the secondary market. Equity markets responded sharply higher after the announcement as investors view this as a positive step. Slower current economic growth prospects facing the emerging market economies, particularly China, has impaired relative performance during the period.

Performance of the Fund can also be affected by the addition of faith-based investment policies which avoids investments in pornography and abortion, as well as companies that are substantial producers of alcohol, tobacco products and gambling. For the six month period ending October 31, 2012, the faith-based investment policies had a net negative performance impact on the Fund. Companies such as Sanofi (abortion/life ethics) and Novartis AG (abortion/life ethics) substantially outperformed the benchmark with returns of +20.19% and +9.59% respectively.

Compensating for a specific restricted industry or company whose total return deviates dramatically from the overall Index is extremely difficult regardless of its weight within that Index.

Current Strategy

The Fund’s strategy is to provide effective diversified international equity exposure while adhering to faith-based investment policies. In addition, the Fund seeks to outperform its benchmark through selective allocation between the developed and emerging market equity classes. This is accomplished by utilizing two subcomponents that represent an appropriate developed market and emerging market benchmark. The Fund will generally not attempt to allocate preferences in one country over another or in one security over another versus its subcomponent benchmark allocations except to comply with its cultural values investment policies.

STEWARD SELECT BOND FUND

Market Overview

Uncertainty from Europe, Asia and the U.S. continue to worry businesses and investors and has helped keep interest rates at historically low levels. Economic growth in Asia has slowed from its torrid pace of a few years ago while Europe is experiencing negative GDP growth prompting riots in the streets. The uncertainty of the U.S. election is now gone, but the fiscal cliff looms with hard choices. With this backdrop, the Fed has announced yet another round of quantitative easing. “Operation Twist” is scheduled to expire at the end of this year, but many think it will be extended or the quantitative easing will be increased to offset its expiration. The Fed has indicated that they will keep interest rates low until at least 2015. Inflation remains benign at this time and with low global demand and high unemployment in the U.S., inflation is unlikely to increase in the near term.

What does all this mean? The economy in the U.S. will probably grow slowly for the next two years which should be positive for employment and housing. The fiscal cliff will be addressed but, because the choices are difficult, Congress will probably enact a partial solution to push it further into the future. Rates should remain low and the U.S. will remain a safe haven.

Fund Performance

For the six months ending October 31, 2012, the Steward Select Bond Fund returned 2.41% for the Institutional class shares and 2.22% for the Individual class chares. For comparison purposes, the Barclays Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index returned 1.92% for the same period.

The benchmark for the Steward Select Bond Fund has been changed from the Barclays Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index to the Barclays Government Credit Index. This change provides a wider range of maturities for the Fund. It also takes away the mortgage segment that was in the intermediate aggregate index but is not present in the government credit index. The longer maturities in the government credit index allow the Fund to generate a greater income return in the current low rate environment while maintaining high quality bonds in the portfolio.

Portfolio Positioning

We will continue to overweight corporates and underweight U.S. Treasuries in the Steward Select Bond Fund. This weighting has penalized total return versus the benchmark but the fund provides a higher current income than the benchmark. We are also duration neutral versus the benchmark due to our belief that rates will remain about the same for at least a year and probably longer. This duration will allow the fund to generate a better overall income return for the shareholder. We do believe that corporates will eventually outperform U.S. Treasuries with rates as low as they are. The uncertain environment and turmoil in

3


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

 

Europe continues to force a flight to quality that has benefitted U.S. Treasuries over any other fixed income sector even with the very low rates that U.S. Treasuries currently pay. The higher coupons of corporate bonds should overcome the fear in investors at some time in the near future.

Current Strategy

We intend to maintain our strategic direction which includes utilizing an over allocation to corporate bonds. Higher coupons and yields provide elevated long term returns compared to the Treasury market over the same period. In addition, the Fund intends to maintain duration equal to or longer than the benchmark. We believe it is unlikely that rates will decline to any degree in the near term. The spread between governments and corporates will continue to fluctuate, but the temporary advantage that governments have will slowly erode as the higher rates earned by the corporate bonds held in the Fund play a strong role in the overall value and performance.

STEWARD GLOBAL EQUITY INCOME FUND

Fund Performance

For the six month period ending October 31, 2012, the Steward Global Equity Income Fund returned -1.70% for the Individual class shares and -1.53% for the Institutional Class shares. The return for the benchmark S&P 500 for the same period was 2.16%. The return for the global market as represented by the S&P Global 1200 index was 2.23%. The dividend yield on the portfolio as of October 31, 2012 was 3.74%.

Factors Affecting Performance

For the six month period ending October 31, 2012 the equity markets experienced volatility ending with a moderate increase in valuations overall. Valuations were primarily driven by government intervention in the financial markets with the Federal Reserve implementing QE3. This program buys $40 billion worth of mortgage bonds per month with no set termination date. Across the pond, the European Central Bank has introduced a new bond buying program that provides for unlimited purchases of one to three year sovereign debt in the secondary market. The announcement of these programs triggered a rise in equity valuations offsetting losses from earlier in the period.

The Fund’s dividend strategy experienced some relative weakness during this period as the U.S. approaches its fiscal cliff with uncertainty regarding tax rates of dividend income. Positive areas included the Fund’s largest holding Mattel, Inc. (+11.52%) which reported income up 22% in the third quarter topping Wall Street expectations. Siemens AG (+8.66%) shares rose on strong overall U.S. sales growth as manufacturing customers were increasingly making investments to support productivity and improve efficiency. Canadian telecom giant, BCE Inc. (+10.54%), saw its first quarter profit jump 14.1% which was driven by its wireless division and the increased use of smart phones.

Relative negative performance within the portfolio was reflected in holdings such as Brazilian steel producer, Companhia Siderurgica Nacional S.A. (-35.88%), whose profits missed first quarter analyst estimates on increased costs and a decrease in iron ore sales. Intel Corp. (-22.61%) announced that third quarter revenue is expected to be below the company’s previous outlook as a result of weaker than expected demand in a challenging environment.

Performance of the Fund can also be affected by the addition of faith-based investment policies which avoids investments in pornography and abortion, as well as companies that are substantial producers of alcohol, tobacco products and gambling. Compensating for a specific restricted industry or company whose total return deviates dramatically from the overall Index is extremely difficult regardless of its weight within that Index.

Current Strategy

The Fund’s strategy pursues its objective through the investment of dividend paying stocks that have demonstrated above median yield and a favorable trend in dividend and earnings growth. In addition to domestic stocks, this strategy includes the ability to invest in international securities traded on U.S. market exchanges. As the international market’s share of the world’s total market capitalization continues to grow, the ability to access these markets becomes increasingly important.

The benefits of dividend paying stocks include lower volatility versus non dividend payers and the overall market. Dividends are an important indicator of corporate strength therefore companies are reluctant to change policy which could signal corporate distress and encourages disciplined management. Unlike earnings, which can be affected by various accounting methods; dividends are transparent and cannot be manipulated. In addition, dividends have historically provided a major component of the stock market’s total return. The strategy provides income with capital appreciation while lowering overall risk. This is accomplished while adhering to the Fund’s faith-based investment policies.

STEWARD FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — October 31, 2012 (Unaudited)

Note 1 — Organization:

The Steward Funds consist of five funds (individually a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”) that are series of two separate companies: the Steward Funds, Inc. and the Capstone Series Fund, Inc. The Funds are organized as Maryland corporations. Each is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”) as a diversified open-end management investment company. Four of the Funds are series of Steward Funds, Inc. — Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund, Steward Global Equity Income Fund, Steward International Enhanced Index Fund, and Steward Select Bond Fund. One Fund, Steward Small-Mid Cap Enhanced Index Fund, is a series of Capstone Series Fund, Inc.

Each Fund currently offers two Classes of shares (“Individual Class” and “Institutional Class”). Each Class of shares has equal rights as to earnings, assets and voting privileges, except that Individual Class bears expenses under a Service and Distribution Plan and an Administrative Services Plan. Each Class of shares has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect just that Class or on which the interests of the Class differ from the interests of the other Class. Income and realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are allocated to each Class of shares based on its relative net assets.

Note 2 — Investment Objectives:

Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests primarily in common stocks of large capitalization companies that represent a broad spectrum of the United States economy and allocates selectively between growth and value-type securities. As of October 31, 2012, stocks with market capitalizations between $1.43 billion and $556.56 billion are considered to be large capitalization stocks.

Steward Small-Mid Cap Enhanced Index Fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests primarily in common stocks of small and medium capitalization companies that represent a broad spectrum of the United States economy and allocates selectively between growth and value-type securities. As of October 31, 2012, stocks with market capitalizations between $49.98 million and $13,238.60 million are considered to be small to medium capitalization stocks.

Steward International Enhanced Index Fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests primarily in American Depository Receipts (“ADRs”) representing securities of companies located or domiciled outside of the United States, with selective allocation between equity securities of developed market companies and emerging market companies.

Steward Select Bond Fund seeks to provide high current income with capital appreciation and growth of income. The Fund invests primarily in fixed income investments such as corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities and government and agency bonds and notes.

Steward Global Equity Income Fund seeks to provide current income along with growth of capital. The Fund invests primarily in dividend-paying common stocks of large, medium and small capitalization companies that represent a broad spectrum of the global economy. The Fund’s non-U.S. investments will be primarily in the form of ADRs.

In pursuing their investment objectives, the Funds apply a comprehensive set of cultural value screens to all of their portfolio investments.

Note 3 — Significant Accounting Policies:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Funds.

Portfolio Valuation:  Fund investments are recorded at fair value. In determining fair value, the Funds use various validation approaches. Portfolio securities listed on a domestic or foreign exchange are valued at the last sale price on the day of valuation or, if there was no sale that day, at the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices as of the close of trading. Equity securities traded on NASDAQ use the official closing price, if available, and otherwise, use the last reported sale price, or the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices if there was no sale on that day. Equity securities that are traded in the over-the-counter market only, but that are not included on NASDAQ, are valued at the last sale price on the day of valuation. Debt securities, including corporate bonds and U.S. government agency, mortgage-backed, and treasurey obligations, with a remaining maturity of sixty days or more are valued using market prices, if available, or a pricing service when such prices are believed to reflect fair market value. Debt securities with a remaining maturity of less than sixty days are valued

48


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

 

at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Money market funds are valued at net asset value per share. All other securities and securities with no readily determinable market values are valued at their fair value in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Directors.

The Steward Select Bond Fund’s investments in mortgage bonds of religious organizations (“church bonds”) are generally considered to be illiquid due to the limited, if any, secondary market for these bonds. In the absence of such secondary market, the Steward Select Bond Fund values investments in church bonds on the basis of readily available market quotations or, lacking such quotations, at fair value as determined under policies approved by and under the general oversight of the Board of Directors. In determining fair value, all relevant qualitative and quantitative factors available are considered. These factors are subject to change over time and are reviewed periodically. Capstone Asset Management Company’s (“CAMCO” or the “Adviser”) fair valuation process is reviewed and refined by the Adviser’s Internal Valuation Committee no less than monthly and is subject to quarterly review and approval from the Fund’s Board of Directors.

Fair value of the church bonds is generally determined using a matrix formula (Market Approach) that derives a price based on relevant factors, including principal amount, interest rate, term, credit quality and spreads determined under a church bond benchmark yield curve. The Adviser constructs and maintains a church bond benchmark yield curve based on new issue church bonds meeting the Fund’s investment requirements. The Adviser obtains credit research and analysis from various industry sources, including an underwriter of church mortgage bonds. The market approach is sensitive to changes in the yield of new church bond issues and the discount rate applied to the matrix.

When the bond issue becomes delinquent on interest, principal, sinking fund payments or when significant principal or balloon payments are due within the next three years, it is the judgment of the Adviser that the credit quality of the issuer may be impacted. Pursuant to fair value procedures adopted by the Fund’s Board of Directors, the Adviser will determine an adjustment to the matrix price. The relevant inputs that the Adviser may consider in establishing the fair value include, but would not be limited to:

the general conditions in the church bond market and the overall financial market
the transaction price of any recent sales or purchases of the security
the transaction price, maturity and yield-to-maturity of any other fixed income security of the issuer
the estimated value of the underlying collateral
the issuer’s payment history, including the consideration of default on interest payments and/or delinquency of sinking fund payments; as well as conditions for accrual of interest and consideration of the collectability of accrued interest

In addition, the fair value procedures also have specific provisions for treatment of defaulted church bonds. When it becomes more than a remote possibility that foreclosure proceedings are probable, the Adviser will take an Income Approach to the valuation of the securities. The relevant inputs that the Adviser may consider in using the Income Approach to determine a fair value include, but would not be limited to:

any current independent appraisal values
any current listing price of the underlying property
index adjusted appraisal values based on published real estate sources
estimated costs associated with the disposition of the property (10.00% – 31.00%)
risk adjusted discount rate (4.80% – 6.50%)
estimated time to sell in years (1 – 3 years)
probability of foreclosure

Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuations determined both by utilizing the matrix formula and by the Adviser, those estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values that another party might estimate or that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. The differences could be material. The estimated fair values may also be influenced by various market trends and can vary significantly.

GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Funds. Unobservable inputs reflect the Funds' assumptions about inputs market participants

would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risks).

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds' own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

Pursuant to these valuation policies, equity securities are generally categorized as Level 1 securities in the fair value hierarchy (unless there is a fair valuation event, in which case affected securities are generally categorized as Level 2). Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 securities in the fair value hierarchy, except that U.S. Treasury debt securities may be categorized as Level 1, and church bonds are generally categorized as Level 3. Money market funds are generally categorized as Level 1 securities in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table presents information about the Funds’ assets measured at fair value as of October 31, 2012:

The Funds recognize transfers between fair value hierarchy levels at the reporting period end. There were no transfers between levels as of October 31, 2012 from those used on April 30, 2012.

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04 “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)” (“ASU 2011-04”). ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to disclose quantitative information about the unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to make disclosures about amounts and reasons for all transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. The new and revised disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Management has determined that this will not have any impact on the Funds’ financial statements other than enhanced disclosures.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income:  Portfolio security transactions are recorded on trade date. Net realized gains or losses on sales of securities are determined by the identified cost method. Interest income, adjusted for accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Debt obligations may be placed in non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful as identified by the Adviser as part of the valuation process. (The treatment of such interest income may be different for federal income tax purposes) Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or as soon as practical after a Fund determines the existence of a dividend declaration after exercising reasonable due diligence. Income and capital gains on some foreign securities may be subject to foreign withholdings taxes, which are accrued as applicable, and have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and regulations.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders:  Dividends from net investment income, if any, of all Funds are declared and paid quarterly. For all Funds, all net realized long-term or short-term capital gains, if any, will be declared and distributed at least annually.

Income dividends and capital gains distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income, gains and losses on various investment securities held by the Funds, timing differences in the recognition of income, gains and losses and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Funds.

Federal Income Taxes:  The Funds intend to qualify as regulated investment companies under Sub-Chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and accordingly, will generally not be subject to federal and state income taxes or federal excise taxes to the extent that they intend to make sufficient distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains.

As of and during the period ended October 31, 2012, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds are not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2008. For all open tax-years, management of the Funds has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Further, management of the Funds is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of any unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change over the next fiscal year.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

 

Allocation of Expenses:  Expenses directly attributable to a Fund or Class are charged directly to that Fund or Class, while expenses that are attributable to more than one Fund or Class are allocated among the respective Funds and their Classes based upon relative net assets or some other reasonable method.

Foreign Securities:  Investments in securities of issuers in foreign countries involves risks not associated with domestic investments. These risks include, but are not limited to: (1) political and financial instability; (2) currency exchange rate fluctuations; (3) greater price volatility and less liquidity in particular securities and in certain foreign markets; (4) lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards; (5) less government regulation and supervision of some foreign stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies; (6) delays in transaction settlement in certain foreign markets; and (7) less availability of information. Securities of issuers in emerging and developing countries raise additional risks relative to investments in developed country issuers, including exposure to less mature and diversified economies and to less stable market and political systems, as well as to possible currency transfer restrictions, delays and disruptions in settlement of transactions, and higher volatility than found in developed countries.

New Accounting Pronouncement:  In December 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11 “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (“ASU 2011-11”). ASU 2011-11 requires disclosure of both gross and net information related to offsetting and related arrangements, enabling users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on the entity’s financial position. The objective of this disclosure is to facilitate comparison between those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of U.S. GAAP and those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of IFRS. ASU 2011-11 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Management is evaluating any impact which ASU 2011-11 may have on the Funds’ financial statements.

Note 4 — Investment Advisory and Other Agreements:

CAMCO, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Capstone Financial Services, Inc. (“CFS”) serves as investment adviser to the Funds. During the year, each Fund’s Board of Directors approved a new advisory agreement with CAMCO which was submitted to the Fund’s shareholders for approval on November 18, 2011 and November 21, 2011 as a result of the change of control which occurred on January 12, 2012. CAMCO receives compensation for its services as investment adviser. The fee is accrued daily and paid monthly based on each Fund’s average daily net assets. Pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory agreement, CAMCO has full discretion to manage the assets of the Funds in accordance with its investment objectives.

The advisory fees for the Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund and the Steward Small-Mid cap Enhanced Index Fund are calculated at the annual rate of 0.15% on the first $500 million of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The rate then declines to 0.125% on the next $500 million of average daily net assets, and to 0.10% on average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. The Steward Global Equity Income Fund and the Steward International Enhanced Index Fund each pay 0.30% on the first $500 million of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The rate then declines to 0.25% on the next $500 million of average daily net assets, and to 0.20% on average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. The Steward Select Bond Fund pays 0.25% on the first $500 million of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The rate then declines to 0.20% on the next $500 million of average daily net assets, and to 0.175% on average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion.

Administration services are provided to the Funds by CFS Consulting Services, LLC (“CCS”), an affiliate of CAMCO and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CFS. Pursuant to the terms of the administration agreement with CCS, CCS will supervise the Funds’ daily business affairs, coordinate the activities of persons providing services to the Funds, and furnish office space and equipment to the Funds. As compensation for its services, CCS receives a monthly fee calculated at the annual rate of 0.075% on the first $500 million of the Funds’ aggregate average daily net assets. The rate declines to 0.03% of the Funds’ aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $500 million.

CCS also serves as a consultant to the Funds. CCS receives its fee monthly, based on the annual average aggregate daily net assets of the Funds as follows:

   
First   $ 200,000,000       0.100 % 
Next   $ 200,000,000       0.075 % 
Next   $ 200,000,000       0.060 % 
Next   $ 400,000,000       0.050 % 
Over   $ 1,000,000,000       0.040 % 

Compliance services are also provided by CCS under the terms of a compliance services agreement which provides for certain compliance services for the Funds and the Board, including the service of the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) for the Funds. The Funds will pay CCS a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.025% of average daily net assets for compliance

services other than the compensation of the CCO. The CCO compensation aggregates to $72,000 ($6,000 per month) for all Funds in the Steward Funds group and is allocated monthly among the Funds in the group based on the relative net assets of the Funds for that month.

Capstone Asset Planning Company (“CAPCO”) serves as the Distributor of the Funds’ shares. CAPCO is an affiliate of CAMCO, and both are wholly-owned subsidiaries of CFS.

Each of the Funds has adopted a Service and Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act whereby the Fund’s assets are used to compensate CAPCO for costs and expenses incurred in connection with the distribution and marketing of shares of each Fund and servicing of each Fund’s Individual Class shareholders. Distribution and marketing expenses include, among other things, printing of prospectuses for prospective investors, advertising literature, and costs of personnel involved with the promotion and distribution of the Funds’ shares. Under the Plan, the Funds pay CAPCO an amount computed monthly at an annual rate of 0.25% of each Fund’s Individual Class average daily net assets (including reinvested dividends paid with respect to those assets). Of this amount, CAPCO may allocate to securities dealers, (which may include CAPCO itself) and other financial institutions and organizations (collectively “Service Organizations”) amounts based on the particular Fund’s average net assets owned by stockholders for whom the Service Organizations have a servicing relationship.

The Administrative Services Plan provides that each Fund, out of assets attributable to its Individual Class shares, shall compensate CAPCO to cover the costs of payments to certain third-party shareholder service providers related to the administration of group accounts in which the Fund’s shareholders participate. The fee is charged to the Individual Class as a whole, up to 0.10% on the average daily net assets. The fee charged will be limited to the amount of fees paid to third-party shareholder service providers, which is calculated based on the value of shares held in such group accounts. The fee is in addition to fees payable for the Service and Distribution Plan.

Certain officers and directors of the Funds are also officers and/or directors of CAMCO, CAPCO and CCS.

Citi Fund Services Ohio, Inc. (“Citi Ohio”), serves as the Funds’ transfer agent and fund accountant.

Note 8 — Contingencies and Commitments:

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain various representations and warranties and provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims against the Funds and is presently unknown. However, based on experience, the Funds consider the risk of loss from such potential claims to be remote.

Note 9 — Control Ownership:

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities creates a presumption of control of the Funds, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of October 31, 2012, the following were record owners of the approximate amounts of each share class listed below. Record ownership is not necessarily the same as beneficial ownership.

Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund – Individual Class   National Financial Services Corp.   72%
Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund – Institutional Class   National Financial Services Corp.   50%

Note 10  — Legal Proceedings:

Lyondell Chemical Company

In October, 2011, CAMCO was named as a defendant in the Weisfelner, as Trustee of the LB Creditor Trust v. Morgan Stanley & Co. (“Creditor Trust Action”) case. The plaintiff seeks to recover the proceeds from the sale of the shares of Lyondell Chemical Company (“Lyondell”). On April 2, 2012, a joinder to the pending motion was filed to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint in the Creditor Trust Action on behalf of CAMCO. Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund was a beneficial owner of Lyondell stock so it is possible the Fund may be identified as a defendant in this action. At this stage of the proceedings, neither CAMCO nor Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund is able to make a reliable prediction as to the outcome of the lawsuit or the effect, if any, on the Fund’s net asset value. The lawsuit does not allege any wrongdoing on the part of the Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund.

Tribune Company

Steward Funds, Inc. and CAMCO have been named as defendants and putative members of a proposed defendant class in the case entitled Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Tribune Co. v. FitzSimons (In re Tribune Co.), No. 12-2652 (S.D.N.Y.) (the “FitzSimons action”). In this action, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Tribune Company (“UCC”) is seeking to recover money paid in connection with a pre-bankruptcy distribution by Tribune Company (“Tribune”) to its shareholders pursuant to a 2007 leveraged buyout transaction (“LBO”). In a second action, a group of Tribune creditors, not including the UCC, filed multiple actions involving state law constructive fraudulent conveyance claims against former Tribune shareholders (the “SCLFC actions”). Steward Funds, Inc. has been named as a defendant in one of these suits, entitled Deutsche Bank Trust Co. Americas v. Employees Retirement Fund of the City of Dallas, No. 11-9568 (S.D.N.Y.). The SLCFC actions have been consolidated together with the FitzSimons action in a multidistrict litigation proceeding captioned In re Tribune Co. Fraudulent Conveyance Litig., No. 11-2296 (S.D.N.Y.) (the “MDL proceeding”). Steward Multi-Manager Equity Fund (which terminated operations in early 2008) and Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund were beneficial owners of Tribune stock. At this stage of the proceedings, CAMCO and Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund are not able to make a reliable

prediction as to the outcome of these lawsuits or the effect, if any, on the Fund’s net asset value. None of these lawsuits alleges any wrongdoing on the part of CAMCO, Steward Multi-Manager Equity Fund, or Steward Large Cap Enhanced Index Fund.

Note 11 — Subsequent Events:

Management has evaluated events subsequent to October 31, 2012 and has concluded no such events require adjustment or disclosure as of October 31, 2012.

EXPENSE EXAMPLES (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Steward Funds, you may incur redemption fees for certain transactions and fees if your account is under $200, (small account fees). You will also incur ongoing costs, including management fees; [and/or service] 12b-1 fees; and other Fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Steward 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 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from May 1, 2012 through October 31, 2012.

Actual Expenses

The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

 

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes (Unaudited)

The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Steward Funds' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare this 5% hypothetical 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. The expenses do not include any redemption or small account fees, which Funds, in certain circumstances, may assess. The Funds do not charge transactional costs, such as sales charges (front or back end loads) or exchange fees, although other funds might. Therefore, this table is useful only in comparing ongoing costs and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
