LARGECAP FUND INVESTMENT REVIEW (Unaudited) (Continued)
November 30, 2018

Management Commentary

The Fund’s lag relative to its benchmark for the fiscal year was primarily driven by underperformance in the Consumer Discretionary, Financial and Industrial sectors. While some of the discrepancy can be attributed to poor security selection, we believe that a broader trend was at play. Specifically, one segment of the market seemed to be discounting the possibility of an impending recession while another did not. Many of the Fund’s holdings recorded record earnings during the year, yet their stock prices remain mired in a sideways or worse pattern. In other words, the market appeared to be assuming said earnings will not be sustainable. Short of a recession, we do not believe this to be the case.

We’ve seen this divergence between growth and value stocks before, but the differential over recent time periods has been particularly acute. In fact, the S&P 500 Growth Index outperformed the S&P 500 Value Index by 7.8% during the fiscal year and by 22.45% over the previous two fiscal years. While our “Growth at a Reasonable Price” strategy generally leads us to invest in a blend of growth and value stocks, over different points in the economic cycle the Fund typically drifts more in one direction or the other. Coming out of the financial crisis, many great companies saw their stock prices depressed notwithstanding their growth prospects. Thus, the Fund tilted slightly to the growth side at the time based on the abundance of attractive opportunities we found. In the last few years we have tilted more towards the value side, as many of the best growth companies appreciated to what we believed were unrealistic earnings multiples and were in our opinion no longer attractive.

Even though our current value bias has cost the Fund relative performance over the past fiscal year, we believe it remains the best option for shareholders going forward based on the existing set of opportunities. Many quality firms with strong free cash flow and growing earnings have been trading at a discount to the S&P 500 index’s price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio. While a few of these firms may ultimately turn out to be unforeseen value traps, our view is that the majority should prosper as long as the economy can avoid a recession. If our belief that a recession is not imminent proves to be false, we expect the high-flying growth names that have led the market will likely suffer the greatest relative hit to their stock prices. Either way, it suggests to us that the current fund positioning is the best one for shareholders going forward.

Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Investments in smaller companies involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility. Investments in American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) are subject to some extent to the risks associated with directly investing in securities of foreign issuers, including the risk of changes in currency exchange rates, expropriation or nationalization of assets, and the impact of political, diplomatic, or social events. Investments in real estate securities may involve greater risk and volatility including greater exposure to economic downturns and changes in real estate values, rents, property taxes, and tax and other laws. A real estate investment trust’s (REIT’s) share price may decline because of adverse developments affecting the real estate industry.

MIDCAP FUND INVESTMENT REVIEW (Unaudited) (Continued)
November 30, 2018

Management Commentary

The Fund’s lag for the fiscal year was primarily driven by underperformance in the Consumer Discretionary, Information Technology and Financials sectors. Historically, the Fund’s “big losers” from an individual security perspective have tended to be offset by its “big winners” over time. While we did benefit this fiscal year from some outsized performers like Hanger and Exact Sciences, we didn’t have enough of them to offset big losers like REV Group and Accelerate Diagnostics. In the long run, we would expect our batting average at each extreme typically to be more balanced, as it has been in the past. We believe that the larger reason for the Fund’s divergence from its benchmark is more likely related to an increase in investor uncertainty with respect to the future economic growth prospects of the U.S. economy.

For example, the Fund’s investments in the Financials sector lagged those of its benchmark by -1.05% during the period. There were no “big losers” in this sector among the stocks held by the Fund. The problem was instead that the Fund favored banks over other financial companies, and bank stocks have not recently kept up with our perception of their underlying economic performance. Additionally, investments in other sectors that benefit from housing turnover also underperformed. While the housing sector has shown signs of slowing, we believe it’s premature to infer that a sharp downturn is imminent, though stock performance would suggest otherwise. Many other pro-cyclical industries are performing poorly, as well.

Investor enthusiasm driven by tax cuts seems to have been replaced by anxiety related to Federal Reserve interest rate policy and the potential for a trade war with China. While trade policy is important, we do believe that investors have potentially been overreacting. Many investors tend to fight the last battle, which in this case means selling the financial-and housing-related stocks that were central to the Great Recession. Today we believe bank balance sheets are on the whole as strong as ever, and that the housing sector is actually likely undersupplied. Whatever problem emerges as the source of the next bear market, we believe it will be somewhere else.

The potential for a recession increases when the benefits from recent tax cuts wear off in the second half of 2019. For now, we believe the odds of a material slowdown are still low. However, an exogenous event or policy error (such as a trade war) could change this outlook. While we have still maintained a slightly pro-cyclical tilt in the Fund, we will continue to take these factors into account as they relate to the fundamental prospects of the companies in which we invest, and make adjustments to the portfolio as our outlook changes.

Investments in real estate securities may involve greater risk and volatility including greater exposure to economic downturns and changes in real estate values, rents, property taxes, and tax and other laws. A real estate investment trust’s (REIT’s) share price may decline because of adverse developments affecting the real estate industry.

Please refer to the Schedule of Investments on page 12 of this report for holdings information. The management commentary above as well as Fund holdings and asset/sector allocations should not be considered a recommendation to buy or sell any security. In addition, please note that Fund holdings and asset/sector allocations are subject to change.

Earnings Growth is a measure of growth in a company’s net income over a specific period, often one year. It is not a prediction of the Fund’s future returns.

BOND FUND INVESTMENT REVIEW (Unaudited) (Continued)
November 30, 2018

Management Commentary

The fiscal year was a difficult one for many fixed income strategies. Five year or less Treasury yields rose between 67 and 118 basis points depending on the maturity, depressing overall returns as prices fell to compensate. Corporate bonds weren’t much better, as spreads widened by 42 basis points on 10-year BBB-rated securities during the period, countering much of the extra income that an investor would normally expect to receive by holding the riskier asset class. As a result, the Fund’s primary and supplementary benchmarks were only able to eke out small gains for the year after spending most of the fiscal year before early August in negative territory. So while the Fund’s 2.37% return for the fiscal year may not be the largest annual return generated for shareholders over the past decade, it’s one that we are particularly proud of given the circumstances.

During the fiscal year, the Fund’s corporate bond overweight coupled with an allocation to asset-backed and commercial mortgage bonds gave the Fund extra income relative to its benchmarks. While these positions were an important component of the Fund’s outperformance, merely concluding that the corporate position was the dominant factor behind the Fund’s performance does not tell the full story. After all, absent extraordinary issue selection, a corporate overweight coupled with a duration of 2-3 years would likely have generated performance somewhat similar to the 0.31% return of the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Credit 1-5 Year Index.

The key in our opinion to the Fund’s relative success during the period was instead a combination of the shape of the yield curve coupled with a low Fund duration. Because the yield curve for non-government bonds was relatively flat, we were able to buy bonds in the 1-2 year maturity timeframe and earn income that was only modestly below yields available on longer-maturity bonds. At the same time, the short duration helped to reduce both interest-rate and spread-widening risk that hurt many of our peers and the benchmarks. This is because the change in price of a corporate bond from wider spreads is roughly equal to the combination of the change in the spread times the duration of said bond. By keeping the duration small, we were able to reduce the overall impact of a given change in spreads.

Looking forward, we like how the Fund is positioned. The SEC yield of the Fund as of the end of the fiscal year was 3.72%, suggesting that the Fund’s holdings are likely to provide a competitive return for shareholders going forward. We continue to find bargains in the 1-2 year space and see little reason at this time to purchase longer maturities except for the occasional exceptional bond. At some point it very likely will make sense to extend, once the yield curve is steeper than today, either due to long-term rates having risen or because the Federal Reserve has begun a rate-cutting cycle to fight a recession. If we were to extend we would probably concurrently increase the Fund’s allocation to government securities in an effort to reduce the portfolio’s credit risk. However, neither scenario appears imminent to us. Thus, as we look ahead to the next fiscal year we will likely continue with the strategy that served us so well over the past year.

Opinions expressed are subject to change, are not guaranteed and should not be considered investment advice.

Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise. The risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investments in bonds of foreign issuers involve greater volatility, political and economic risks, and differences in accounting methods. Investment by the Fund in lower-rated and non-rated securities presents a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities.

Please refer to the Schedule of Investments on page 19 of this report for holdings information. The management commentary above as well as Fund holdings should not be considered a recommendation to buy or sell any security. In addition, please note that Fund holdings are subject to change.

The federal government guarantees interest payments from government securities while dividend payments carry no such guarantee. Government securities, if held to maturity, guarantee the timely payment of principal and interest.

Basis Points is a unit that is equal to 1/100th of 1%, and is used to denote the change in a financial instrument. The basis point is commonly used for calculating changes in interest rates, equity indexes and the yield of a fixed-income security.

Duration is a commonly used measure of the potential volatility of the price of a debt security, or the aggregate market value of a portfolio of debt securities, prior to maturity. Securities with a longer duration generally have more volatile prices than securities of comparable quality with a shorter duration.

SEC Yield is a standardized yield computed by dividing the net investment income per share earned during the 30-day period prior to quarter-end and was created to allow for fairer comparisons among bond funds.

Spread is the percentage point difference between yields of various classes of bonds compared to treasury bonds.

Yield is the income earned from a bond, which takes into account the sum of the interest payment, the redemption value at the bond’s maturity, and the initial purchase price of the bond.

Yield Curve is a line that plots the interest rates, at a set point in time, of bonds having equal credit quality but differing maturity dates.

Credit Ratings are provided by Standard & Poor’s, who assign a rating based on their analysis of the issuer’s creditworthiness. The highest rating given is AAA and the lowest is C.

BOND FUND INVESTMENT REVIEW (Unaudited) (Continued)
November 30, 2018

The purpose of Moody’s ratings is to provide investors with a simple system of gradation by which relative creditworthiness of securities may be noted. Gradations of creditworthiness are indicated by rating symbols, with each symbol representing a group in which the credit characteristics are broadly the same. The highest rating assigned by Moody’s is AAA and the lowest is C.

Although the makeup of the Bond Fund’s portfolio is constantly changing, as of November 30, 2018, 74.60% of the Fund’s portfolio was invested in corporate bonds. Due to prevailing market conditions, the composition of the Fund’s portfolio as of that date was consistent with the composition of the Fund’s portfolio over the past 5 years. In addition, as of that date 64.91% of the Fund’s portfolio was invested in securities rated BBB by Standard & Poor’s, while an additional 4.09% of the Fund’s portfolio was rated below investment-grade and 16.67% of the Fund’s portfolio was not rated by Standard & Poor’s. For portfolio information current as of the most recent quarter-end, please call 1-800-999-0887 or visit our website at www.thompsonim.com. Compared to a portfolio that is more evenly allocated between government and corporate bonds, a portfolio that is heavily allocated to corporate bonds may provide higher returns but is also subject to greater levels of credit and liquidity risk and to greater price fluctuations. A portfolio that is significantly allocated to bonds having lower and below-investment-grade ratings may also be subject to greater levels of credit and liquidity risk and experience greater price fluctuations than a portfolio comprised of higher-rated investment-grade bonds.

FUND EXPENSE EXAMPLES (Unaudited)
November 30, 2018

Example

A Fund shareholder may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs such as redemption fees; and (2) 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 a Fund 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 June 1, 2018 to November 30, 2018.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below under each Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for such Fund. You may use the information in this line, 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 first line 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

The second line of the table below under each Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on such Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s 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 the ongoing costs of investing in each Fund and other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies.

VALUATION POLICY AND PROCEDURES - The Funds’ Board of Directors (the “Funds’ Board”) has adopted methods for valuing securities set forth in the Funds’ Pricing Policies and Procedures, including circumstances in which market quotes are not readily available or deemed to be unreliable, and has delegated authority to the Advisor to apply those methods in making fair value determinations, subject to oversight by the Funds’ Board. The Advisor has established a valuation committee that, along with other Advisor employees, administers, implements, and oversees the fair valuation process and makes fair value decisions. The valuation committee regularly reviews its own fair value decisions, as well as valuations, valuation techniques and services furnished by pricing services; considers circumstances in the markets which may require it to make or adjust valuation determinations; and reviews previous valuation determinations. The valuation committee reports on its activities and any changes to the fair valuation guidelines to the Funds’ Board.

SECURITY VALUATION - Each Fund’s equity securities, including common stocks, ADRs and REITs, are valued at their market prices (generally the last reported sales price on the exchange where the securities are primarily traded or, for Nasdaq-listed securities, at their Nasdaq Official Closing Prices). If no sales are reported on a particular day, the mean between the highest bid and lowest asked quotations at the close of the exchanges will generally be used. Investments in money market mutual funds are generally priced at the ending net asset value provided by the service agent of the funds.

Fixed-income securities such as corporate bonds, asset-backed securities, mortgage-backed securities, U.S. government and agency securities, sovereign bonds, municipal bonds and commercial paper are typically valued based on valuations published by an independent pricing service, which uses various valuation methodologies such as matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. Factors considered by pricing services include market characteristics such as benchmark yield curves, option-adjusted spreads, credit spreads and fundamental analytical data relating to the issuer. Short-term investments in fixed-income securities (those with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are generally valued on an amortized cost basis.

Where market quotations are not readily available or are unreliable, a value is determined in good faith pursuant to procedures established by the Funds’ Board. When determining the value of a security, consideration is given to the facts and circumstances relevant to the particular situation, which includes factors such as fundamental analytical data relating to the investment, which may include consideration of yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon rate, maturity and type of issue, nature and duration of any restrictions on disposition of the security and an evaluation of forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased or sold. Fair value pricing is an inherently subjective process, and no single standard exists for determining fair value. Different funds could reasonably arrive at different values for the same security.

VALUATION MEASUREMENTS – In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive to sell an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with an independent buyer in the principal market, or in the absence of a principal market the most advantageous market for the investment or liability. GAAP established a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund’s 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 similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
 
Level 3 –  Significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

Inputs may include price information, specific and broad credit data, liquidity statistics, and other factors. The Fund considers observable data to be that market data which is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market. The determination of what constitutes “observable” requires significant judgment by the Fund. The categorization of a financial instrument within the hierarchy is based upon the pricing transparency of the instrument and does not necessarily correspond to the Fund’s perceived risk of that instrument. Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and which are therefore classified as level-1 securities, include active listed equities and certain U.S. government obligations.

Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but are valued based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs, are classified as level-2 securities. These include certain U.S. government obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, asset-backed securities, mortgage-backed securities, sovereign bonds, municipal bonds, and less liquid listed equities. Level-2 investments include positions that are not traded in active markets.

Investments classified as level-3 securities have significant unobservable inputs, as they trade infrequently or not at all. Level-3 instruments include private-placement and less liquid corporate and municipal debt securities. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the Fund uses one or more valuation techniques (e.g., the market approach, the income approach, or the cost approach) for which sufficient and reliable data is available. Within level 3, the use of the market approach generally consists of using comparable market transactions, while the use of the income approach generally consists of using the net present value of estimated future cash flows, adjusted as appropriate for liquidity, credit, market and/or other risk factors. The inputs used by the Fund in estimating the value of level-3 investments include the original transaction price and recent transactions in the same or similar instruments.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of November 30, 2018:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
November 30, 2018

The Funds did not invest in any level-3 investments as of and during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018. Refer to each Fund’s Schedule of Investments for additional information regarding security types and industry classifications.

SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME - Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds. Discounts/premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted/amortized over the life of the respective securities using the effective interest method for both book and tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded as earned. Income and capital gains on some foreign securities may be subject to foreign withholding 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 rates. The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the Funds to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in a specific industry, state, or region. Debt obligations may be placed on 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. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectability of interest is reasonably assured.

EXPENSES - Each Fund is charged for those expenses that are directly attributed to it. Expenses that are not readily identifiable to a specific Fund are generally allocated among the Funds in proportion to the relative sizes of the Funds.

SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED OR DELAYED-DELIVERY BASIS - Each Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. When-issued securities are securities purchased with delivery to occur at a later date at a stated price and/or yield, thereby involving the risk that the price and/or yield obtained may be more or less than those available in the market when delivery takes place. At the time a Fund makes a commitment to purchase a security on a when-issued basis, the Fund records the transaction and reflects the value of the security in determining net asset value. Each Fund designates and maintains cash and marketable securities at least equal in value to commitments for when-issued securities.

LINE OF CREDIT - The Funds have established an unsecured line of credit (“LOC”) with U.S. Bank N.A. which expires November 8, 2019, used primarily to finance redemption payments. Each individual Fund’s borrowing under the LOC is limited to 5% of the value of that Fund’s net assets, 33.33% of the value of the Fund’s investments, or any explicit borrowing limits imposed by the LOC, whatever is less. Interest is charged at the prime rate, which was 5.25% as of November 30, 2018. As of November 30, 2018, the limits established are: LargeCap Fund - $6,000,000, MidCap Fund - $2,300,000 and Bond Fund - $145,000,000. All terms and borrowing limits imposed by the LOC are subject to review and approval by the Funds’ Board. The LOC was drawn upon during the year; however, as of November 30, 2018, there were no borrowings by the Funds outstanding under the LOC. The following table shows the average balance, average interest rate, interest expense, and maximum borrowings incurred by the Funds on the LOC for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018.

            Average                   Date of

LargeCap Fund $45,230 4.80%     $2,201     $1,189,000 07/24/18
MidCap Fund $14,405 4.86% $709 $884,000 10/24/18

November 30, 2018

USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

GUARANTEES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS - Under the Funds’ organizational documents, each Director, officer, employee or other agent of the Funds (including the Funds’ investment advisor) is indemnified, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and believe the risk of loss to be remote.

PERMANENT BOOK AND TAX DIFFERENCES - GAAP requires that permanent financial reporting and tax differences relating to shareholder distributions be reclassified in the capital accounts.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and realized gains on securities for the LargeCap Fund and MidCap Fund normally are declared at least annually. Bond Fund distributions to shareholders from net investment income normally are declared on a quarterly basis, and distributions to shareholders from realized gains on securities normally are declared at least annually. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - No provision has been made for federal income taxes since the Funds have elected to be taxed as regulated investment companies and intend to distribute substantially all income to shareholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies.

ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES - As of and during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018, the Funds did not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. Also, the Funds recognized no interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits during the same period. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS - The Funds have evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of the Funds’ financial statements. See notes 3 and 6. There were no additional subsequent events which were deemed to have an impact on the Funds’ financial statements.

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND ADMINISTRATIVE AND ACCOUNTING SERVICES AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Investment Advisory Agreement pursuant to which Thompson Investment Management, Inc. (“TIM” or “Advisor”) is retained by the Funds provides for monthly compensation to TIM computed on average daily net assets at the following annual rates:

      First       Over
$50 Million $50 Million
LargeCap Fund 1.00% 0.90%
MidCap Fund 1.00% 0.90%
Bond Fund 0.65% 0.60%

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
November 30, 2018

Effective December 1, 2018, the Advisor is contractually bound to waive management fees and/or reimburse expenses incurred by the Funds through March 31, 2020 so that the annual operating expenses of the Funds do not exceed the following percentages of their respective average daily net assets: LargeCap Fund - 1.03%, MidCap Fund - 1.15% and Bond Fund - 0.80%. Prior to December 1, 2018, the applicable expense limitation percentages were LargeCap Fund - 1.05%, MidCap Fund - 1.15% and Bond Fund - 0.80%. For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018, the Advisor reimbursed expenses incurred by the LargeCap Fund and the MidCap Fund in the amounts of $202,041 and $137,432, respectively. The Funds are not obligated to reimburse the Advisor for any fees or expenses waived in previous fiscal years.

As of November 30, 2018, an affiliated shareholder held 11.30% of the MidCap Fund’s outstanding shares. Transactions by the shareholder may have a material impact on the Fund.

Pursuant to an Administrative and Accounting Services Agreement, TIM maintains the Funds’ financial records in accordance with the 1940 Act, prepares all necessary financial statements of the Funds and calculates the net asset value per share of the Funds on a daily basis. As compensation for its services, each Fund pays TIM a fee computed daily and payable monthly at the annual rate of 0.15% of average daily net assets up to $30 million, 0.10% of the next $70 million of average daily net assets and 0.025% of average daily net assets in excess of $100 million, with an annual minimum fee of $30,000 per Fund. The calculations of daily net asset value are subcontracted to U.S. Bank Global Fund Services, resulting in fees paid by TIM for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018, in the following amounts:

Administrative &
      Accounting Fees Paid
LargeCap Fund             $42,127            
MidCap Fund $36,381
Bond Fund $297,893

The Funds reimburse the Advisor for a portion of amounts paid by the Advisor out of the Advisor’s own resources under various shareholder, account maintenance, networking and other services provided to the Funds by broker-dealers and other intermediaries. The amount reimbursed by the Funds is equal to (1) for those accounts maintained through a shareholder servicing arrangement, an annual rate of no more than 0.10% of the average daily net assets of the omnibus accounts in the Funds for which all broker-dealers and other intermediaries, in the aggregate, are responsible, and (2) for those accounts maintained through a networking arrangement, no more than $6 per year per account in the Funds for which the broker-dealers and other intermediaries are responsible; provided however, in all cases only one of these fees shall be applicable to the assets in an account. This amount has been determined by the Funds’ Board to approximate (or not to exceed) the transfer agency fees that would otherwise have been payable by the Funds if such broker-dealers and intermediaries did not maintain these accounts. Such amounts are recorded within Shareholder servicing costs on each Fund’s Statement of Operations. For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018, the amounts reimbursed by the Funds to the Advisor were:

Intermediary
      Fees Reimbursed
LargeCap Fund           $22,015          
MidCap Fund $3,294
Bond Fund $870,826

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Thompson IM Funds, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Thompson IM Funds, Inc. comprising Thompson LargeCap Fund, Thompson MidCap Fund, and Thompson Bond Fund (the “Funds”) as of November 30, 2018, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of November 30, 2018, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2018, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Funds’ auditor since 2010.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement

The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”) requires that the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) for Thompson IM Funds, Inc. (the “Funds”) be approved annually by a vote of a majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Directors who are not parties to the Agreement or “interested persons” of the Funds as that term is defined in the Act (the “Independent Directors”). At its meeting on November 7, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Funds, including all of the Independent Directors, voted unanimously to renew the existing Agreement between the Funds and Thompson Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) for each of the LargeCap Fund, the MidCap Fund, and the Bond Fund (each of these series of the Funds is sometimes referred to as a “Fund” in this section).

The Board’s approval was based on its consideration and evaluation of a variety of factors, including: (1) the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Advisor; (2) the performance of each of the Funds in comparison to its benchmark index and to a peer group of mutual funds; (3) the management fees and total operating expenses of each Fund, including comparative information with respect to a peer group of mutual funds and with respect to fees charged by the Advisor to other clients whose assets are managed under similar objectives and strategies; (4) the extent to which economies of scale may be realized as a Fund grows; and (5) whether fee levels reflect any potential economies of scale for the benefit of shareholders. The Board generally viewed these factors in their totality, with no single factor serving as the principal reason for determining whether to renew the Agreement and with individual Board members giving different weight to different factors.

In connection with the renewal process, both the Independent Directors as well as the full Board met separately in person on November 7, 2018, and the full Board met by telephone on November 5, 2018, to consider information relevant to the renewal process. The Independent Directors and the full Board are referred to collectively as the “Board” in this section.

To facilitate evaluation of the Agreement, the Board worked with the Advisor and independent legal counsel to request, obtain, and review information prepared or compiled by the Advisor as well as an independent analysis of each Fund’s performance, expenses, and profitability prepared by Broadridge, a leading independent provider of data for independent directors of investment companies for purposes of their review of investment advisory agreements. Information reviewed included a memorandum from Fund counsel discussing the fiduciary duty of Directors under Section 15(c) of the Act; an executive summary and memorandum from Fund management providing its recommendation for renewal of the Agreement; the Advisor’s analysis of profitability of the Agreement to the Advisor and the profitability of related service contracts with the Advisor; a separate profitability comparison prepared by Broadridge; a detailed statistical report from Broadridge comparing each Fund’s respective performance and expenses with both a comparison “group” and a comparison “universe” and a report from Broadridge outlining its methodology in preparing that report; supplementary performance information as of the most recent calendar quarter for the Funds, including a comparison of each Fund’s performance to an applicable category of funds as determined by Morningstar, Inc., a ranking service widely recognized in the mutual fund industry; information regarding the composition of and fees charged for standardized investment products offered to separately managed account clients of the Advisor; the Advisor’s Form ADV, which, among other things, showed fees charged by the Advisor to manage the investments of other clients with objectives and programs similar to the Funds; the Agreement and other service agreements with the Advisor; and background information on the Funds’ portfolio managers and reports from the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer. In addition, the Board had received and considered detailed information on the Funds’ investment performance and expenses at each of its quarterly meetings during the year as well as in-person reports from the Fund’s portfolio managers and reports from the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer. Throughout the review and approval process, the Independent Directors were represented by independent legal counsel. The Board consulted with independent legal counsel and the Advisor throughout the review and approval process to evaluate the information provided, including the methodology employed by Broadridge in the reports produced for the Board, and to confirm that the content of the information produced as a result of its follow-up requests was satisfactory.

The Board considered the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor, including services required to be provided under the Agreement, services required to be provided under other agreements with the Advisor and with affiliates of the Advisor, and additional services provided by the Advisor that were not required under any of those agreements. The Board considered the background and experience of the Funds’ portfolio managers, other advisory personnel, compliance personnel, and other support personnel. It noted that in addition to considering these factors at this meeting, it had also considered many of these factors during the course of its quarterly meetings over the past year as well as at its November 5 special telephonic meeting. The Board noted that, in addition to investment management and broker-selection services, the Advisor prepares compliance and other materials for each of the Board’s meetings; provides office space, equipment, information technology and administrative services necessary for operation of the Funds; and performs regular compliance and risk-analysis functions for the Funds. The Board believed that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor were comparable to those provided by advisors to comparable funds and that such services were adequate for the Funds’ needs, and were being performed by the Advisor in a competent and appropriate manner.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) (Continued)
 

The Board reviewed the one-, two-, three-, four-, five- and ten-year investment performances of each Fund.

The Board observed that the investment performance for the LargeCap Fund was in the top 40 percent or top 60 percent of its Broadridge performance group for all but the three-year period, in which it ranked in the bottom 40 percent, although it compared less favorably relative to its performance universe, in which it ranked in the bottom 40 percent for all but the two-year period.

The performance of the MidCap Fund ranked in the top 40 percent of its performance group for the two- and ten-year periods, but in the bottom 40 percent for all other periods. It ranked in the top 40 percent of its performance universe for the two- and ten-year periods and in the top 60 percent for the three- and five-year periods.

The Board noted that the Bond Fund ranked in the top 20 percent of both its performance group and its performance universe for every period measured.

After considering the performances of the LargeCap Fund, MidCap Fund, and Bond Fund, the Board determined that relative to the performances of comparable funds and to each Fund’s benchmark index, the performance of each Fund was within an acceptable range.

In reviewing the cost of services provided to the Funds and profits realized by the Advisor from these relationships, the Board compared information relating to the various management fees charged to separately managed accounts of the Advisor that have relatively analogous investment objectives as those of a Fund. Among the information reviewed by the Board was information relating to standardized investment products offered to separately managed account clients of the Advisor. The Board determined that these standardized products in most instances had investment objectives and styles that were sufficiently different from the investment objectives and styles of any of the Funds so as to make the comparison inapt. With respect to those standardized products available to separately managed account clients of the Advisor that the Board determined to be sufficiently similar in investment objective and strategy to a Fund to be relevant for comparative purposes, the Board determined that in light of the significantly different level of services and resources required for the management of these products and the Funds, the management fees charged by the Advisor with respect to each of the Funds were reasonable relative to the management fees charged by the Advisor with respect to the relevant standardized separately managed account product.

The information provided by Broadridge indicated that the advisory fees of the LargeCap Fund, after taking into account the waiver of a portion of those fees, were in the highest 40 percent of the Fund’s Broadridge comparison group and highest 20 percent of the Fund’s comparison universe. That information indicated that the actual total expense ratio of the LargeCap Fund was among the highest 40 percent of its comparison universe, although its actual total expense ratio was closer to the median of its comparison group. The Board observed that the Advisor was proposing to institute a more substantial fee waiver that would further lower the ceiling on the maximum total expense ratio that the Fund could incur from 1.05 percent to 1.03 percent of average daily net assets of the Fund. After taking into account all of these considerations, the Board determined that the management fee and total expense ratio of the LargeCap Fund were reasonable.

The Board noted that the MidCap Fund’s contractual management fee ranked among the highest of funds in the MidCap Fund’s Broadridge comparison group, though after taking into account the waiver of a portion thereof by the Advisor, its total expenses ranked in the fourth quintile of its comparison group. The Board observed that the total expense ratio and the non-management expense ratio of the Fund continued to be relatively high, in particular as compared to the Fund’s Broadridge comparison universe, but that these ratios compared somewhat more favorably relative to the Fund’s comparison group. The Board observed that the opportunity existed for the total expense ratio, and in particular non-management expenses, to further decline as the MidCap Fund grows in assets. The Board considered that the Advisor was proposing to continue the fee waiver for the Fund, capping the maximum total expense ratio that the Fund could incur at 1.15 percent. After taking into account all of these considerations, the Board determined that the management fee and total expense ratio of the MidCap Fund were reasonable.

The Board noted that the Bond Fund’s contractual management fee was among the highest of its Broadridge comparison group and that its actual management fee was the highest of both its comparison group and comparison universe. The Board also noted, however, that the Fund’s total expense ratio was in the lowest 40 percent of both its Broadridge comparison group and comparison universe, which the Board determined was reasonable.

With regard to profitability, the Board noted that the Advisor’s pre-tax profitability, before accounting for marketing fees borne by the Advisor, ranked below the median of firms included in the Broadridge analysis, though it ranked somewhat above the median of firms on a post-marketing basis. The Board observed that all of the investment advisors for which profitability information was publicly available and that were included in the Broadridge comparison were publicly traded entities having markedly different marketing strategies from that of the Advisor. The Board determined that the operating margins of the Advisor were reasonable and, after reviewing information provided by Broadridge and reviewing the Advisor’s own analysis, the Board concluded that the cost of services provided by the Advisor and its affiliates to the Funds and the profits realized with respect thereto were reasonable.

53



ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) (Continued)
 

The Board also considered whether economies of scale might be realized as the Funds’ assets increase. It noted that the Agreement provides for a fee breakpoint at $50 million of assets. This breakpoint is equal to ten basis points for the LargeCap Fund and MidCap Fund and five basis points for the Bond Fund. The Board considered that an increase in assets could provide economies of scale in the Funds’ operations. However, it noted that the level of assets of both the LargeCap Fund and the MidCap Fund presented no meaningful opportunity for such economies. Therefore the Board concluded that neither Fund was likely to realize material economies of scale until its assets grew significantly. The Board noted that assets in the Bond Fund had continued to trend upward, but determined that the Bond Fund had not yet reached a point where the Fund was realizing any material economies of scale.

The Board considered additional benefits to the Advisor arising from the Agreement, such as that the Funds may enhance the Advisor’s reputation as an investment adviser, thereby helping the Advisor to attract other clients and investment personnel. The Board determined that benefits of the sort derived from the Agreement were consistent with the benefits received by other advisers to mutual funds.

Based primarily on these considerations, the Board renewed the Agreement with respect to each Fund.
