STATE FARM ASSOCIATES’ FUNDS TRUST

NOTES TO SCHEDULES OF INVESTMENTS

1. Investment Objective

The State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust (the “Trust”) has four separate investment portfolios (each a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, management investment company. Each Fund has its own investment objective, investment policies, restrictions, and attendant risks and is diversified as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940. Each Fund follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 946, “Financial Services-Investment Companies.” State Farm Investment Management Corp. (“SFIMC”) is the Trust’s investment adviser.

The State Farm Growth Fund (the “Growth Fund”) seeks long-term growth of capital which may be supplemented by income. The Growth Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in common stocks and other income producing equity securities.

The State Farm Balanced Fund (the “Balanced Fund”) seeks long-term growth of principal while providing some current income. The Balanced Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing under normal market conditions approximately 60% of its total assets in common stocks, and ordinarily limits its common stock investments to no more than 75% of its total assets. The Balanced Fund ordinarily invests at least 25% of its total assets in fixed income securities. The Balanced Fund invests in bonds to provide relative stability of principal and income.

The State Farm Interim Fund (the “Interim Fund”) seeks the realization over a period of years of the highest yield consistent with relatively low price volatility. The Interim Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective through investment in high quality debt securities with short and intermediate-term maturities.

The State Farm Municipal Bond Fund (the “Municipal Bond Fund”) seeks as high a rate of income exempt from federal income taxes as is consistent with prudent investment management. The Municipal Bond Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective through investment primarily in a diversified selection of municipal bonds (for example, general obligation bonds of a state or bonds financing a specific project) with maturities of one to seventeen years, although from time to time SFIMC may purchase issues with longer maturities. The Municipal Bond Fund normally invests so that either (1) at least 80% of the Fund’s net investment income is exempt from regular federal income tax or (2) at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets are invested in securities that produce income exempt from regular federal income tax.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their schedules of investments in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Securities Valuation

All investments in securities are recorded at their fair value. For more information see Note 3 Securities Valuation.

Securities Transactions

For financial reporting purposes, security transactions are accounted for on trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed).

Income Taxes

Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and, in the manner provided therein, to distribute substantially all of their taxable income, including any net realized gain on sales of investments, reportable for federal income tax purposes.

For more information refer to Note 4 Income Taxes.

Foreign Currency Translation

Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing foreign exchange rates at August 31, 2016. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing foreign exchange rates on the respective dates of transactions. That portion of realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed, but is included with realized and unrealized gains and losses on investment securities.

Securities Purchased on a “When-Issued” Basis

The Municipal Bond Fund may purchase municipal bonds on a “when-issued” basis. Delivery and payment for these securities may be a month or more after the purchase date, during which time such securities are subject to market fluctuations. The Municipal Bond Fund identifies and holds specific liquid assets with a market value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued purchase commitments in order to ensure that it can meet those commitments. It is possible that the securities will never be issued and the commitment cancelled. At August 31, 2016, the Municipal Bond Fund had commitments of $22,120,860 (representing 3.03% of net assets) for when-issued securities.

3. Securities Valuation

Investments are valued at fair value pursuant to valuation procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The valuation procedures assign to SFIMC the responsibility for determining fair value using the processes and factors as outlined in the valuation procedures. If SFIMC cannot determine fair value based on the valuation procedures, the Board or the Executive Committee of the Board will determine fair value.

Fair value is defined as the price that the Funds would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-tier hierarchy is used to classify fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in three broad levels as follows:

 

    Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to the Funds for identical assets or liabilities.

 

    Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, interest rates, yield curves and credit spreads. For assets or liabilities with a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

    Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available. These inputs, based on the best information available in the circumstances, would include reasonably available information about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability and might include SFIMC’s own data.

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or liability might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those cases, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the fair value hierarchy. The end of the reporting period method is used for determining when transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred.

Stocks, closed-end registered investment companies and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) traded on securities exchanges, or in an over-the-counter (“OTC”) market in which transaction prices are reported, are valued at the last sales price on the day of valuation or, if there are no reported sales on that day, at the last reported bid price for the day. Stocks traded on NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Long-term debt securities and U.S. Treasury bills are generally valued using quotations provided by an independent pricing service. Short-term debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less (other than U.S. Treasury bills) are generally valued on an amortized cost basis, which approximates market value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued each day based on the closing net asset value of the respective fund. Short sales, if any, are valued at market value.

Portfolio securities that are primarily traded on foreign securities exchanges (“foreign securities”) are valued at the closing values of such securities on the respective exchange where each security is primarily traded. SFIMC may determine that a market quotation for a foreign security held by a Fund is not reliable because of events or circumstances that have occurred between the time of the market quotation and the time the net asset value of the Fund is calculated (“subsequent event”). A subsequent event might include company-specific developments, a development that might affect an entire market or region, a potential global development or a significant change in one or more U.S. securities indexes. If SFIMC determines that the market quotation for a foreign security is not reliable, SFIMC may determine the foreign security’s value in SFIMC’s reasonable judgment.

For securities other than foreign securities, for which market prices are not readily available or are considered unreliable, SFIMC is required to obtain bid price quotations from brokers or dealers in the securities. If SFIMC cannot obtain a quotation for the security or if SFIMC believes the quotation does not represent the security’s fair value, then SFIMC will determine the security’s value in SFIMC’s reasonable judgment.

In determining a value based on reasonable judgment, SFIMC may use different methodologies, including multiple of earnings, multiple of book value, discount from market of a similar freely traded security or, for debt securities, yield to maturity. Other factors SFIMC may consider in determining value for a security include, but are not limited to, fundamental analytical data relating to the security, the nature and duration of any restrictions on disposition of the security, the last traded price of the security, significant global or regional events such as political unrest, natural disasters, and war, and significant movements in major market indices, ETFs, index futures or other financial instruments in the U.S. or other markets. All securities valued based on SFIMC’s reasonable judgment are subsequently reported to the Board on a quarterly basis.

SFIMC reviews the pricing methodologies of the Funds’ approved pricing vendors, including understanding a vendor’s key inputs and assumptions in valuing securities. SFIMC also engages in transaction back-testing with respect to portfolio securities sold by the Funds to compare unrealized gains and losses to realized gains and losses.
