These tables depict the long-term credit-quality ratings assigned to the Fund’s portfolio holdings by Standard & Poor’s (S&P) and Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s), each of which is a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (NRSRO). These credit-quality ratings are shown without regard to gradations within a given rating category. For example, securities rated “A-” have been included in the “A” rated category. Rated securities that have been prerefunded, but not rated again by the NRSRO, have been included in the “Not rated by…” category.
|
Rated securities include a security with an obligor and/or credit enhancer that has received a rating from an NRSRO with respect to a class of debt obligations that is comparable in priority and security with the security held by the Fund. Credit-quality ratings are an assessment of the risk that a security will default in payment and do not address other risks presented by the security. Please see the descriptions of credit-quality ratings in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information. Holdings that are rated only by a different NRSRO than the one identified have been included in the “Not rated by…” category.

Investment Adviser Fee – WesBanco Investment Department is the Funds’ investment adviser (the “Adviser”). The Advisory Agreement between the Funds and the Adviser provides for an annual fee equal to the percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
Fund Name | Investment Adviser Fee Percentage |
Small Company Growth Fund | 0.75% |
Growth Fund | 0.75% |
Balanced Fund | 0.75% |
Government Bond Fund | 0.60% |
West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund | 0.60% |
Tactical Opportunity Fund | 0.75% |
The Adviser may voluntarily waive a portion of its fee or reimburse a Fund for certain operating expenses.

Fund Name | Adviser Fee Waiver | |||
Tactical Opportunity Fund | $ | 27,058 |
Administrative Fee – ALPS Fund Services, Inc. (“ALPS”) provides the Funds with certain administrative personnel and services. The fees paid to ALPS are based on the daily average aggregate net assets of the Trust for the period, subject to an annual minimum (on the Trust level). Fees are allocated to each Fund based on daily net assets (each Fund’s net assets as a percentage of total Trust net assets).
Distribution (12b-1) Fee – ALPS Distributors, Inc. (“ADI”) serves as the Funds’ distributor.
The Funds’ Trustees previously adopted a Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the terms of the Plan, the Funds could have compensated the distributor from the net assets of the Funds to finance activities intended to result in sale of each Fund’s shares. The Plan specified that the Funds may have incurred distribution expenses at 0.25% of the daily net assets of each Fund. The Plan expired on August 31, 2007, and the Funds’ Trustees did not approve its renewal.
Shareholder Services Fee – Under the terms of Shareholder Services Agreements with WesBanco Bank (“WesBanco”), an affiliate of the Adviser, and other financial institutions, the Funds may pay WesBanco, or other financial institutions, up to 0.25% of average daily net assets. The fee is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts. WesBanco and the financial institutions may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of their fee. WesBanco and the financial institutions can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at their sole discretion.
Recordkeeping Fee – The Funds may pay recordkeeping fees on an average net assets basis or on a per account per year basis to financial intermediaries for providing recordkeeping services to the Funds and shareholders.

Custodian Fees – WesBanco, an affiliate of the Adviser, is the Funds’ custodian. The custodian fee paid to WesBanco is based on the level of each Fund’s average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses. WesBanco may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. WesBanco can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.
Offering Costs – The Tactical Opportunity Fund will bear all expenses incurred in its business and operations, including all organization and initial offering costs (unless assumed by the Adviser), subject to the expense limitation plan. Costs incurred in connection with the offering and initial registration of the Tactical Opportunity Fund have been deferred and will be amortized on a straight-line bases over the first twelve months after commencement of operations.
General – Certain Officers and Trustees of the Funds are Officers and Directors or Trustees of the above companies.
6. Investment Transactions
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations, for the six months ended June 30, 2017, were as follows:
Fund | Purchases | Sales | ||||||
Small Company Growth Fund | $ | 24,422,879 | $ | 32,142,460 | ||||
Growth Fund | 53,886,694 | 71,612,370 | ||||||

Tactical Opportunity Fund | 21,313,067 | 4,018,292 |
Fund | Purchases | Sales | ||||||
Government Bond Fund | $ | – | $ | 7,821,664 |
Since the West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers located in one state, it will be more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of that state than would be a comparable tax-exempt mutual fund that invests nationally. In order to reduce the credit risk associated with such factors, at June 30, 2017, 26% of the securities in the portfolio were backed by letters of credit, bond insurance of various financial institutions, or financial guaranty assurance agencies.
Additionally, the Funds may invest a portion of their assets in securities of companies that are deemed by the Funds’ management to be classified in similar business sectors. The economic developments within a particular sector may have an adverse effect on the ability of issuers to meet their obligations. Additionally, economic developments may have an effect on the liquidity and volatility of portfolio securities.
8. Compensation of Trustees
None of the Trustees are entitled to receive any retirement, pension plans or deferred compensation benefits from the Trust. Interested Trustees receive the same compensation as Independent Trustees. No officers of the Funds are compensated by the Funds, but officers may be reimbursed by the Funds for travel and related expenses incurred in performing their duties.

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and to the extent applicable, shareholder services fees and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2017.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line of the table below (“Actual Fund Return”) provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred 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 section under the heading “Expense Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses attributable to your investment during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line under each fund of the table below (“Hypothetical Fund Return”) provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a 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. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are required to be provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds with other funds. To do so, compare this 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. Therefore, the second line of the table below (“Hypothetical Fund Return”) is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Board Review of Advisory Contract
As required by the 1940 Act, the Board of Trustees (“Board” or “Trustees”) of the WesMark Funds (“Funds”) has reviewed, at its May 2017 meeting, the Funds’ investment advisory contract with WesBanco Investment Department (“Adviser”). The Board met telephonically prior to the meeting to discuss the materials received in connection with their consideration of the renewal of the investment advisory agreement and made an additional request to the Adviser at that time. Following a review and approval by the Funds’ Independent Trustees in executive session at the May meeting, the Board reviewed and approved the continuation of the Funds’ investment advisory agreement with the Adviser for the one-year period commencing on May 31, 2017. The Board’s decision to approve the investment advisory agreement reflects the exercise of its business judgment on whether to continue the existing arrangements.
The Board is aware that various courts, including the United States Supreme Court, have interpreted provisions of the 1940 Act and have indicated in their decisions that the following factors may be relevant to an Adviser’s fiduciary duty with respect to its receipt of compensation: the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser, including the investment performance of a Fund and the Adviser; the Adviser’s cost of providing the services; the extent to which the Adviser may realize “economies of scale” as a Fund grows larger and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale; any profits or indirect benefits that may accrue to the Adviser and its affiliates as a result of the Adviser’s relationship with a Fund; performance and expenses of comparable funds; and the extent to which the independent Board members are fully informed about all facts bearing on the Adviser’s services and fees. The Funds’ Board is aware of these factors and is guided by them in its review of the Funds’ advisory contract to the extent they are appropriate and relevant, as discussed further below.
In connection with its review, the Board requests and receives a significant amount of detailed information about the Funds and the WesBanco organization. The Adviser and other service providers of the Funds provide much of this information at each regular meeting of the Board, and furnish additional reports in connection with the particular meeting at which the Board’s formal review of the advisory contract occurs. In between regularly scheduled meetings, the Board receives additional information on particular matters as the need arises. Thus, the Board’s evaluation of an advisory contract is informed by reports covering such matters as: the Adviser’s investment philosophy, personnel, and processes; a Fund’s short- and long-term performance (in absolute terms, certain competitor or “peer group” funds and/or other benchmarks, as appropriate), and comments on the reasons for performance; a Fund’s expenses (including the advisory fee itself and the overall expense structure of a Fund, both in absolute terms and relative to similar and/or competing funds, with due regard for any expense limitations); the use and allocation of brokerage commissions derived from trading a Fund’s portfolio securities; the nature and extent of the advisory and other services provided to a Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates; compliance and audit reports concerning the Funds and the primary service providers to the Funds; and relevant developments in the mutual fund industry and how the Funds and/or the Adviser are
responding to them. The evaluation process is evolutionary, reflecting continually developing considerations. Changing circumstances drive the criteria considered and the emphasis placed on relevant criteria.
With respect to the nature and quality of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board received and considered information concerning the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds. The Trustees considered the background and experience of the members of the portfolio management teams responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds and considered the functioning of the portfolio management teams for the Funds. In this regard the Board discussed the work load and work allocation among the various portfolio managers. The Trustees also considered the new resources that the Adviser recently added in investment research and compliance. The Board concluded it was satisfied with the functioning of the portfolio management teams and was satisfied with the capabilities and commitment of the Adviser to provide high quality service to the Funds. With respect to a Fund’s performance and expenses in particular, the Board has found the use of comparisons to other mutual funds with comparable investment programs to be useful, given the high degree of competition within the mutual fund business. While mindful that courts have cautioned against giving such comparisons too much weight, the Board focuses on comparisons with other similar mutual funds (rather than non-mutual fund products or services) because it is believed that they are more relevant. For example, other mutual funds are the products most like the Funds, and they are readily available as alternative investment vehicles. The range of their fees and expenses therefore appears to be a generally reliable indication of what consumers have found to be reasonable in the precise marketplace in which the Funds compete. A Fund’s ability to deliver competitive performance when compared to its peer group may be a useful indicator of how the Adviser is executing on the Fund’s investment program, which would in turn assist the Board in reaching a conclusion that the nature, extent, and quality of the Adviser’s investment management services are such as to warrant continuation of the advisory contract. The Funds are the only advisory clients of the Adviser. However, personnel of the Adviser may assist in the provision of asset management services for clients of affiliates of the Adviser. The Board is aware of these arrangements and is briefed on any changes to these arrangements.
For the one year and three year period ended March 31, 2017, the performance of the WesMark Small Company Growth Fund and WesMark Growth Fund were below the median of the relevant peer groups. The WesMark West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund’s Performance for the one year period ended March 31, 2017 was at the median of the relevant peer group but for the three year period ended March 31, 2017 was below the median of the relevant peer group. The performance of the WesMark Balanced Fund for the one year period ended March 31, 2017 was below the median of the relevant peer group but for the three year period ended March 31, 2017 was above the median of the relevant peer group. The performance of the WesMark Government Bond for the one year and three year periods ended March 31, 2017 was above the median

Board Review of Advisory Contract
of the relevant peer group. The Board reviewed the performance of the Funds for the first quarter of 2017 and noted that the WesMark Growth Fund, WesMark Small Company Growth Fund and WesMark West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund were above the median of their respective peer groups for the quarter, while the WesMark Balanced Fund and the WesMark Government Fund were below the median of their respective peer groups for the quarter. The Board also noted that the peer performance comparisons for the WesMark West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund were of limited value because of the unique nature of the West Virginia municipal bond market and the limited number of municipal bond funds dedicated to West Virginia. Overall the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the Advisor’s performance in managing the Funds. The Board will continue to monitor these efforts and performance of the Funds.
The Board requested and reviewed a report prepared by an independent rating organization which compared each of the Fund’s fees, including gross advisory fees, to a peer group for each WesMark Fund compiled by the independent rating organization. The report indicated that the gross investment advisory fee for WesMark West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund, WesMark Balanced Fund, WesMark Growth Fund and WesMark Government Bond Fund were above the average for the selected peer groups while the gross investment advisory fee for WesMark Small Company Growth Fund was below the average for the selected peer group. The Board also reviewed the other information provided in the report such as the Funds’ total expense ratios verses those of the selected peer groups. Based on the review of the report, the Board concluded it was satisfied that the advisory fees and overall expense structure of the Funds remained competitive and was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser’s services. The Board will continue to monitor advisory fees and other expenses borne by the Funds.
The Board also considered whether “economies of scale” may exist and whether the Funds benefit from any such economies. The Board noted that, each of the Funds is still of relatively small size relative to many of its peers and had not experienced meaningful asset growth over the past year. Under these circumstances, the Board concluded there were no meaningful “economies of scale” enjoyed by the adviser in managing the Funds. However, the Board noted that shareholders of a Fund may benefit from an increase in size of the Fund due to the fixed expenses of the Fund being spread over a larger asset base potentially resulting in lower expense ratios for the Funds. The Trustees also noted that the Adviser had made investments in the hiring of investment management personnel and that the benefits of those investments were likely to be experienced by the Funds as a whole.
The Board also receives financial information about the Adviser, including information on the profitability of the Adviser on a fund- by-fund basis. Although the Board considered the profitability of the Adviser on a fund-by-fund basis, in the Board’s view, the cost of performing advisory services on a fund-specific basis is difficult to estimate satisfactorily as it involves making certain assumptions in the allocation of expenses and is a relatively minor consideration in its overall evaluation. The Board therefore determined that the profitability analysis was of limited value.
The Board considered, in addition to the advisory fees, the compensation and benefits received by the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the Funds. This included fees received for services, such as custody and shareholder servicing, provided to the Funds by other entities in the WesBanco organization and research and trading services received by the Adviser from brokers (or from third parties with which these broker-dealers have arrangements) that execute fund trades (“soft dollar arrangements”). The Trustees considered the benefit to the Adviser and its affiliates from such soft dollar arrangements, including that the services received are of value to the Adviser in advising the Funds and that the Adviser might otherwise be required to separately purchase such services. The Trustees concluded that the “soft dollar” arrangements appeared to benefit the Funds and did not seem unreasonable. The Board also concluded that the amounts received by the Advisor or its affiliates for the provision of custody and shareholder servicing did not appear unreasonable.
In assessing the Adviser’s performance of its obligations, the Board also considers whether a circumstance or event has occurred that would constitute a reason for it to not renew an advisory contract. In this regard, the Board is mindful of the potential disruptions of the Funds’ operations and various risks, uncertainties and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision to terminate or not renew an advisory contract. Thus, the Board’s “selection” or approval of the Adviser must reflect the fact that it is the shareholders who have effectively selected the Adviser by virtue of having invested in the Funds. The Board concluded that, in light of the factors discussed above, including the nature, extent, quality and scope of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates, continuation of the advisory contract was appropriate.
The Board also reviewed and discussed the quality of the material provided to the Board and the process by which the Board considered the renewal of the advisory agreement. The Board concluded that it was satisfied with the material provided by the Adviser and was satisfied with the process for considering renewal of the agreement. However, in order to continuously focus on improving the quality of the material and the process for reviewing the material the Board determined to continue to work with the Adviser in jointly identifying areas of improvement, if any.
The Board based its decision to renew the advisory contracts on the totality of the circumstances and relevant factors and with a view to past and future long-term considerations. The Board does not consider any one factor to be determinative. With respect to the factors that were relevant, the Board’s decision to approve the contract reflects its determination that the Adviser’s performance and actions provide a satisfactory basis to support the decision to continue the existing arrangements. Because the totality of circumstances includes considering the relationship of each Fund to the WesMark family of Funds, the Board does not approach consideration of each Fund’s advisory contract as if that were the only fund offered by the Adviser.
