Taylor Frigon Core Growth Fund Annual Report November 30, 2022 (Unaudited) |
For the year ended November 30, 2022, the Taylor Frigon Core Growth Fund (the Fund) underperformed the S&P Mid Cap 400® Index, S&P Small Cap 600 Index and the S&P 500® Index (the S&P 500). The Fund returned (46.51)% whereas its primary benchmark, the S&P Mid Cap 400® Index, returned (3.29)% . The economic and market uncertainty caused by high inflation and unprecedented interest rate hikes hit the Fundwhich is primarily made up of early-stage, high growth companiesparticularly hard, resulting in underperformance versus its benchmark for the period.
Performance of the Fund for the period was mixed between a variety of different sectors and industries. The top performing company came from the information technology space, Impinj, Inc., a company that develops radio-frequency identification (RFID) hardware and software to enable Internet of Things solutions for its customers. The worst performer came from the industrial machinery space, Kornit Digital Ltd., a company that produces digital printers for on-demand garment manufacturing. Other top performers for the year include NAPCO Security Technologies, a leading security solutions provider, Tower Semiconductor Ltd., the leading foundry of analog semiconductor solutions, QuickLogic Corp., a fabless semiconductor manufacturer, and PROCEPT BioRobotics Corp., a medical device company that has developed an innovative Aquablation procedure to treat prostate enlargement. Tower Semiconductor was the third best performing company in the Fund for the period, but we sold out of our position on February 15 after the company announced it would be acquired by Intel. The Funds weakest performers were similarly diversified. They include Grid Dynamics Holdings, Inc., a leading digital transformation service provider, Silvergate Capital Corp., a bank providing services to the digital asset industry, Carvana Co., an online used car retailer, and Coinbase Global, Inc., which operates the largest cryptocur-rency exchange in the United States.
This mixed performance across a diverse set of industries and spaces may be a result of a market trading environment that was marked by the growth versus value trade. Those with a more short-term mindset, concerned about sustained higher inflation and the severe actions the U.S. Federal Reserve has taken to combat non-transitory inflation, appear to have cycled out of so-called growth companies and sought safety by cycling into so-called value companies. We see such activity as nonsense and noise. It is our view that solid and innovative companies, over time, tend to do quite wellregardless of inflation or deflationthus, we pay no attention to these trading games. While it is never our approach to consider such short-term trading in our investment management process, nonetheless, our portfolio can be impacted by these conditions when they are the dominant theme in the minds of traders during a particular period. Our strategy is to focus on the individual businesses in which we are invested, and not concern ourselves with the machinations and whims of the trading environment, but we do think that phenomenon may be partly responsible for some of the price action in our portfolio companies.
As we look forward to 2023, we remain excited that much of the portfolio continues to consist of companies that we believe are very early in their lifecycles with plenty of room for exceptional growth ahead of them. We continue to see the most significant exposure, and thus the most significant opportunities, in the Information Technology and Healthcare Technology areas.
Despite recent underperformance, we remain highly convinced that our narrative-based investment approach that seeks to identify the underlying trends that will drive economic
2022 Annual Report 1
growth in the coming years will continue to prove resilient in the long run. While the market will likely continue to grapple with the impact of an inflationary environment for the foreseeable future, which could prolong the recent heightened volatility and result in further short-term weakness in our portfolio, we generally view such circumstances as opportunities to add to positions whenever possible in order to set ourselves up for a strong move back to the upside.
During this most recent market downturn, we have witnessed the ramifications of what we believe has been an overly loose monetary policy, and the unwinding of this policy may continue to cause further disruption in the near term. This is precisely why the business-based approach to investing is a hallmark of the strategy deployed by the Taylor Frigon Core Growth Fund and, we believe, will be the path to future success, especially in times such as we are entering. We will continue to align ourselves with what we believe are well-managed, innovative companies that have the capability to navigate the storms of extreme uncertainty and find their way to fertile fields of future growth.
Thank you for your continued support as a shareholder and we look forward to our next update.
Sincerely,
Gerry Frigon
Portfolio Manager

2022 Annual Report 4
Expense Example (Unaudited) |
Shareholders of this Fund incur ongoing costs consisting of management and service fees. Although the Fund charges no sales loads or transaction fees, you will be assessed fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks and stop payment orders at prevailing rates charged by Mutual Shareholder Services, LLC, the Funds transfer agent. IRA accounts will be charged an $8.00 annual maintenance fee. If shares are redeemed within 90 days or less of purchase from the Fund, the shares are subject to a 2% redemption fee. Additionally, your account will be indirectly subject to the expenses of any underlying funds. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with similar costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested in the Fund on June 1, 2022 and held through November 30, 2022.
Actual Expenses |
The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. In order to estimate the expenses a shareholder paid during the period covered by this report, shareholders can divide their account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6) and then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled Expenses Paid During the Period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 paid by a shareholder for the period. Shareholders may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in this Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in other funds shareholder reports.
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 or the charges assessed by Mutual Shareholder Services, LLC as described above and expenses of any underlying funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Taylor Frigon Core Growth Fund (the Fund) was organized as a diversified series of PFS Funds (the Trust) on December 7, 2016, and commenced operations on December 27, 2016. The Trust was established under the laws of Massachusetts by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated January 13, 2000, which was amended and restated as of January 20, 2011. The Trust is registered as an open-end investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). The Trust may offer an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest in a number of separate series, each series representing a distinct fund with its own investment objectives and policies. As of November 30, 2022, there were thirteen series authorized by the Trust. The Funds objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The investment adviser to the Fund is Taylor Frigon Capital Management, LLC (the Adviser).
2.) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies. The financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The Fund follows the significant accounting policies described in this section.
SECURITY VALUATION
All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in Note 3. The Trusts Board of Trustees (Board) has designated the Advisor as Valuation Designee pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act.
SHARE VALUATION
The net asset value (the NAV) is generally calculated as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) every day the Exchange is open. The NAV is calculated by taking the total value of the Funds assets, subtracting its liabilities, and then dividing by the total number of shares outstanding, rounded to the nearest cent. The offering price and redemption price per share is equal to the net asset value per share, except that shares of the Fund are subject to a redemption fee of 2% if redeemed within 90 days or less of purchase. During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022, proceeds from redemption fees were $3,403.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Funds policy is to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. It is the Funds policy to distribute annually, prior to the end of the calendar year, dividends sufficient to satisfy excise tax requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. This Internal Revenue Code requirement may cause an excess of distributions over the book year-end accumulated income. In addition, it is the Funds policy to distribute annually, after the end of the fiscal year, any remaining net investment income and net realized capital gains.
The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of certain tax positions only where the position is more likely than not to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Funds tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal tax authorities; however, the Fund is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The treatment for financial reporting purposes of distributions made to shareholders during the year from net investment income or net realized capital gains may differ from their ultimate treatment for federal income tax purposes. The differences between book and tax basis are caused
2022 Annual Report 10
Notes to the Financial Statements - continued
primarily by differences in the timing of the recognition of certain components of income, expense, or realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes. Where such differences are permanent in nature, they are reclassified in the components of the net assets based on their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, result of operations, or net asset value per share of the Fund.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which 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 increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
EXPENSES
Expenses incurred by the Trust that do not relate to a specific fund of the Trust are allocated to the individual funds based on each funds relative net assets or another appropriate basis.
OTHER
The Fund records security transactions based on a trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, and interest income, if any, is recognized on an accrual basis. The Fund uses the specific identification method in computing gain or loss on the sale of investment securities. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds understanding of the applicable countrys tax rules and rates.
3.) INVESTMENT SECURITIES VALUATIONS
The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of its investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in 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, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. 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 fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
VALUATION OF FUND ASSETS
A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows.
Equity securities (common stocks, including ADRs). Equity securities generally are valued by using market quotations, but may be valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service when the Valuation Designee believes such prices accurately reflect the fair value of such securities. Securities that are traded on any stock exchange or on the NASDAQ over-the-counter market are generally valued by the pricing service at the last quoted sale price. Lacking a last sale price, an equity security is generally valued by the pricing service at its last bid price. Generally, if the security is traded in an active market and is valued at the last sale price, the security is categorized as a level 1 security, and if an equity security is valued by the pricing service at its last
2022 Annual Report 11
Notes to the Financial Statements - continued
bid, it is generally categorized as a level 2 security. When market quotations are not readily available, when the Valuation Designee determines that the market quotation or the price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the current fair value, or when restricted securities are being valued, such securities are valued as determined in good faith by the Valuation Designee, subject to review of the Board and are categorized in level 2 or level 3, when appropriate.
In accordance with the Trusts good faith pricing guidelines, the Valuation Designee is required to consider all appropriate factors relevant to the value of securities for which it has determined other pricing sources are not available or reliable as described above. There is no standard procedure for determining fair value, since fair value depends upon the circumstances of each individual case. As a general principle, the current fair value of an issue of securities being valued by the Valuation Designee would appear to be the amount which the owner might reasonably expect to receive for them upon their current sale. Methods which are in accordance with this principle may, for example, be based on (i) a multiple of earnings; (ii) a discount from market of a similar freely traded security (including a derivative security or a basket of securities traded on other markets, exchanges or among dealers); or (iii) yield to maturity with respect to debt issues, or a combination of these and other methods. The Board maintains responsibilities for the fair value determinations under Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and oversees the Valuation Designee.
The following table summarizes the inputs used to value the Funds assets measured at fair value as of November 30, 2022:
Valuation Inputs of Assets | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | ||||
Common Stocks | $30,489,026 | $0 | $0 | $30,489,026 |
The Fund did not hold any Level 3 assets during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022.
The Fund did not invest in derivative instruments during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022.
4.) INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (Management Agreement) with the Adviser. The Adviser manages the investment portfolio of the Fund, subject to policies adopted by the Trusts Board of Trustees. Under the Management Agreement, the Adviser, at its own expense and without reimbursement from the Trust, furnishes office space and all necessary office facilities, equipment, and executive personnel necessary for managing the Fund and pays the operating expenses of the Fund excluding management fees, brokerage fees and commissions, taxes, borrowing costs (such as (a) interest and (b) dividend expenses on securities sold short), ADR fees, fees and expenses of acquired funds, fees pursuant to Rule 12b-1 distribution plans, and extraordinary or non-recurring expenses. For its services, the Adviser receives an investment management fee equal to 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.
As a result of the above calculation, for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022, the Adviser earned management fees totaling $407,778. At November 30, 2022, the Fund owed the Adviser management fees of $26,654.
Additionally, the Fund has a Services Agreement with the Adviser (the Services Agreement). Under the Services Agreement the Adviser receives an additional fee of 0.45% of the average daily net assets up to $100 million, and 0.25% of such assets in excess of $100 million and is obligated to pay the operating expenses of the Fund excluding management fees, brokerage fees and commissions, 12b-1 fees (if any), taxes, borrowing costs (such as (a) interest and (b) dividend expenses on securities sold short), ADR fees, the cost of acquired funds and extraordinary expenses.
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022, the Adviser earned services fees of $183,500. At November 30, 2022, the Fund owed the Adviser services fees of $12,077.
5.) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Jeffrey R. Provence of Premier Fund Solutions, Inc. (the Administrator) also serves as trustee/officer of the Fund. Mr. J. Provence, as an owner of the Administrator, receives benefits from the administration fees paid by the Adviser.
The Trustees who are not interested persons of the Fund were paid a total of $3,750, in Trustees fees for their services to the Fund for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022. These fees were paid by the Adviser.

6.) PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022, purchases and sales of investment securities other than short-term investments and U.S. Government obligations aggregated $11,143,205 and $11,259,403, respectively.
7.) CONTROL OWNERSHIP
The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of that fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of November 30, 2022, Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), for the benefit of its customers, held, in aggregate, 81.10% of the shares in the Fund. The Trust does not know whether any underlying accounts held at Schwab, owned or controlled 25% or more of the voting securities of the Fund.
8.) TAX MATTERS
For Federal income tax purposes, the cost of securities owned at November 30, 2022 was $34,208,619. At November 30, 2022, the composition of unrealized appreciation (the excess of value over tax cost) and depreciation (the excess of tax cost over value) on a tax basis was as follows:
Appreciation | (Depreciation) | Net Appreciation/(Depreciation) | |||||
$8,763,190 | ($12,482,783) | ($3,719,593) |
The tax character of distributions was as follows:
Fiscal Year Ended | Fiscal Year Ended | |||||
November 30, 2022 | November 30, 2021 | |||||
Ordinary Income | $ -0- | $ -0- | ||||
Long-term Capital Gain | 5,473,820 | 2,355,555 | ||||
$ 5,473,820 | $ 2,355,555 |
As of November 30, 2022, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis were as follows:
Other Accumulated Losses | $ (987,209 | ) | |
Unrealized Depreciation on Investments - Net | (3,719,593 | ) | |
$ (4,706,802 | ) |
As of November 30, 2022, the difference between book and tax basis unrealized appreciation was attributed to the tax treatment of passive foreign investment companies (PFICs) and the deferral of wash sales. Under current tax law, late-year ordinary losses incurred after December 31 of a Funds fiscal year may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax purposes. As of November 30, 2022, other accumulated losses included deferred late year ordinary losses of $486,490, and an available unused short-term capital loss carryforward of $500,719 with no expiration.
For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022, the following reclassification was primarily attributed to the reclassification of net operating loss.
Paid in Capital | $(644,478 | ) | |
Total Distributable Earnings | 644,478 |
9.) CONCENTRATION OF SECTOR RISK
If a Fund has significant investments in the securities of issuers in industries within a particular sector, any development affecting that sector will have a greater impact on the value of the net assets of the Fund than would be the case if the Fund did not have significant investments in that sector. In addition, this may increase the risk of loss of an investment in the Fund and increase the volatility of the Funds NAV per share. From time to time, circumstances may affect a particular sector and the companies within such sector. For instance, economic or market factors, regulation or deregulation, and technological or other developments may negatively impact all companies in a particular sector and therefore the value of a Funds portfolio will be adversely affected. As of November 30, 2022, the Fund had 54.06% of the value of its net assets invested in stocks within the Information Technology sector.
10.) CASH CONCENTRATION IN UNINSURED ACCOUNT
For cash management purposes, the Fund may concentrate cash with the Funds custodian. This may result in cash balances exceeding the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limits. As of November 30, 2022, the Fund held $2,818,753 in cash at US Bank, N. A., exceeding the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000.

11.) COVID-19 RISKS
Unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues; and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. The impact of COVID-19 has adversely affected, and other infectious illness outbreaks that may arise in the future could adversely affect, the economies of many nations and the entire global economy, individual issuers and capital markets in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. Public health crises caused by the COVID-19 outbreak may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries or globally. The duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and its effects cannot be determined with certainty.
12.) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of these financial statements and has noted no such events.
