“Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon in the sense that it is and
can be produced by a more rapid increase in the quantity of money than in output.”
—Milton Friedman
 
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
 
For the six months since our last shareholder letter of 10/1/21, the Intrepid Capital Fund had a return of -0.47%, which shouldn’t cause you too much eye strain as the return for this period is barely discernible – but nonetheless slightly negative for the period.
 
To show you the contradictions we are confronting as we navigate the capital markets, the Bloomberg Government/Credit Bond Index fell -6.16% and the S&P 500 stock index rose 5.92% over the same six month period.  As a 38-year participant in the capital markets, I find these short-term (6 months) outcomes to be incongruous.
 
I say this as I feel certain that you have heard the phrase “don’t fight the Fed” in financial commentary.  Well, the “Fed” made its first move since the fourth quarter of 2018 in an attempt to remove liquidity from the financial system, now that it is abundantly clear they have had rates too low for too long.
 
As the Intrepid Capital Fund invests across a broad array of both stocks and bonds, it should not be too surprising that the performance of the Fund is between that of both stock and bond indexes.  With the current run rate of inflation north of 7% along with the Federal Reserve Board of Governors broadcasting a 50 basis points increase at their May meeting, the math is not looking good for what I generally call “long duration” investors, whether they are in the stock or bond market.

Duration is simply the weighted average of expected cash flows from an investment by year.  This is most commonly applied to the bond market as a way to assess interest rate risk.  The general assumption is a 1% rise in interest rates multiplied by a security’s duration equals the amount of expected capital loss.
 
This math generally held true for the first quarter of 2022 as the Bloomberg Government/Credit Bond Index lost -6.33% as rates moved up 1%, and that loss roughly matched the duration of the index (~6 years).
 
I don’t want to go to far down the rabbit hole of bond math here, but the takeaway is the headwind of higher interest rates has negatively impacted the bond market and is having similar effects on the more speculative parts of the equity markets.  Those companies that are not cash-generative and unprofitable, with only hopes of positive cash flow far out into the future, have seen considerable markdowns in their share prices over the past six months.  A couple of examples:
 
 
In August 2021, Zoom (ZM) traded for $400/share and today trades for $125/share
     
 
In September 2021, Docusign (DOCU) traded north of $300/share and today trades for $110/share.

The good news here is although we haven’t shown any forward progress in the last six months, I feel pretty good as we enter this new paradigm of investing with multiple rate increases in the forecast and the volatility we have already experienced so far in 2022.  The reason for my confidence is centered around our preference for shorter duration investments – both bond and stock alike.
 
In addition, I feel certain the investment team here will be able to source attractive long-term investments if prices drop from here.
 
Thank you for your continued support.  If there is anything we can do to serve you better, please do not hesitate to give us a call.

Mutual Fund investing involves risk.
 
All investments involve risk.  Principal loss is possible.  The Fund is subject to special risks including volatility due to investments in smaller companies, which involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility.  Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise.  This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities.  Investments by the Fund in lower-rated and non-rated securities present a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities.  The Fund may invest in foreign securities which involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods.  The risks of owning ETFs generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities they are designed to track.  ETFs also have management fees that increase their costs versus the costs of owning the underlying securities directly.

April 1, 2022
 
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
 
After rallying for 7 consecutive quarters, stocks (as measured by the S&P 500) recorded their first quarterly loss since the COVID crash of Q1 2020.  There was good reason for investors to be more cautious, as the quarter had a little bit of everything: continued surging inflation, expectations of a more hawkish Fed, concerns of slowing economic growth, and heightened geopolitical risk following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
 
Still, it’s hard to say there is much fear in the markets today, as the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 indices both ended the quarter within 6% of their all-time highs.
 
For the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Intrepid Endurance Fund returned -11.03%, compared to a return of -6.18% for the Fund’s benchmark Morningstar Small Cap Index.  This underperformance is disappointing, particularly given the Fund’s historical tendency to outperform during periods of falling prices.
 
For the six months ended March 31, 2022, the Intrepid Endurance Fund returned -7.82% versus -2.67% for the Fund’s benchmark Morningstar Small Cap Index.
 
We have written in prior letters that the Fund will tend to be more fully invested going forward when compared to its history, and that exposure will be more concentrated in companies we believe have sustainable competitive advantages that are driving structural market share growth.  While we expect this approach to work well over multi-year periods, it has not served us well in the past few quarters.  Although we were pleased with the operating results and outlooks for the companies that the Fund owns, we fell victim to violent sector and factor rotations during the quarter, and many of our faster-growing holdings saw their multiples compress.  We have made a few minor adjustments to our positioning, but our overall posture and strategy remains consistent.
 
Positioning
 
Perhaps the most notable development during the quarter was the continued increase in inflation, and the risk that poses to the ultra-loose monetary policy the US has enjoyed during most of the last decade.  Instead of abating, as many market

commentators predicted, inflation accelerated higher, ending the quarter with the highest recorded change in Consumer Price Index (CPI) since 1981! Recent results of the businesses we follow confirm this trend, as nearly every single one is raising prices to combat their swelling input costs.
 
We’re not sure what the path of inflation is from here, but we do believe the risk of “higher for longer” has increased since the last time of our last commentary.  Accordingly, we have tweaked the portfolio by (1) reducing exposure to positions we anticipate to fare worse in a more inflationary environment, and (2) slightly increasing the amount of cash in the portfolio.  Regarding the former, we sold Camping World Holdings (CWH) and Naked Wines (WINE LN), two recent additions to the Fund, early during the quarter.  We think both are good businesses and are open to owning them again at more attractive valuations.  The Fund ended the quarter with a cash level of 8%.  In the event of more volatility, we hope to deploy that into attractive opportunities.
 
On the other hand, we increased exposure to businesses whose stocks were punished due to supply chain issues we believe are temporary, but who are seeing very strong demand.  Notable examples included the technology hardware companies Fabrinet (FN) and Silicom (SILC).  To a lesser extent, it also included homebuilder LGI Homes (LGIH).  We view the Fund’s long-term perspective as one of its key advantages, and are confident betting that supply chains will eventually recover and that companies with structural demand growth will disproportionately benefit.
 
We made two notable sales during the quarter:
 
 
Take Two Interactive (TTWO) – a leading video game publisher which the Fund owned for several years.  During the quarter, the company announced the acquisition of a mobile game developer called Zynga (ZNGA).  While we remain very bullish on TTWO, the market cap after the acquisition (which included stock) made the holding too large for a small cap-focused Fund and we sold soon after the announcement.
     
 
IAA Inc.  (IAA) – IAA reported results in February and issued guidance for 2022 that included a decline in profitability.  The drivers of the tough outlook were both market share losses to a better-executing competitor and higher operating costs.  For a business that should benefit both from improved execution after spinning out of its parent company and its pricing power, we lost a good deal of confidence in the management team.  We continue to like the fundamentals of IAA’s industry (salvage auto) and business, and will continue to follow it to see if new management can put it on a better track.

The only major new position purchased by the Fund was Atento SA (ATTO).  Atento is the leading business process outsourcer in South America and is in the late stage of a turnaround following the implementation of new management in 2019.  The company has experienced accelerated top line growth and significant margin

expansion the last several years, yet still trades at a low valuation due to investors’ disregard for the more volatile Latin American economies as well as a very illiquid stock.  The illiquidity is driven by an unusual shareholder base, with roughly two-thirds of the shares held by institutional credit investors.  These controlling shareholders have a lock-up that expires in Q2 2022 and there was recently a news story that they have hired an investment bank to evaluate strategic alternatives for the company.  We have invested in ATTO due to its improved operating results and cheap valuation, but would not be disappointed if the company was sold to a strategic or financial buyer.

Contributors & Detractors
 
The largest detractors to performance were:
 
 
LGI Homes (LGIH) – Homebuilder stocks such as LGIH were brutalized during the quarter, as rising interest rates and materials costs led to affordability concerns.  We take a longer-term perspective on the housing market, and believe there is a shortage of homes resulting from years of underbuilding.  We think LGIH is one of the best builders in the industry and has the potential to continue gaining market share.  The Fund purchased additional shares following the decline in share price.
     
 
Green Thumb Industries (GTBIF) and Trulieve (TRUL CN) – Both are companies in the cannabis industry, discussed in more detail below.

The top contributors to performance were:
 
 
Civitas Resources (CIVI) – Civitas is a leading oil and natural gas producer in Colorado.  It’s Board of Directors did a masterful job merging with peers to build scale while energy prices were low, and today has a pristine balance sheet, tons of free cash flow, and is returning most of that cash to investors quickly.  With rising oil and gas prices during the quarter, Civitas’ stock was a beneficiary as investors begin to price in higher commodity prices.
     
 
Atento SA (ATTO) – A new position (as described above), a news story suggesting that Atento had hired advisers to evaluate strategic alternatives came out after we initiated our position, sending the shares higher.
     
 
iShares Gold Trust (IAU) – The Fund has held a small position in this gold ETF for several years as a hedge against unfavorable outcomes resulting from what we viewed as extreme monetary policy from the Federal Reserve.  The price of gold rose during the quarter mostly due to rising inflation.

Cannabis Positions
 
It was another frustrating quarter to be a cannabis investor, as these positions once again significantly underperformed the broader indices.  Unfortunately, these stocks continue to trade almost entirely based on expectations of regulatory change instead of their fundamentals.  Institutional investors have still had a tough time entering the industry, which has created some of the most inefficiently priced securities we have come across.  We think two recent examples highlight this inefficiency:
 
 
1)
The interest rates that cannabis companies pay on their debt have come down significantly over the last year.  In a normally functioning industry, we would expect this decline in cost of capital to translate to higher equity prices.  Instead, the opposite has been true for cannabis equity prices over the last year.  In the 25 years that Intrepid has studied the capital markets, we cannot ever recall such a phenomenon.
     
 
2)
A news outlet reported on March 24 that the US House of Representatives would soon be voting on the MORE Act – a bill to decriminalize marijuana.  US cannabis stocks initially rallied on the news, before ending the day roughly flat.  Canadian cannabis stocks, on the other hand, surged! Canadian stocks such as Tilray, Sundial and Aurora were up 22%, 23% and 11%, respectively, on the day.  Importantly, this legislation would have virtually no impact on the Canadian companies! Investors did not care, however, mistaking them for US cannabis companies and sending the stocks rocketing higher.

It’s likely that some type of regulatory change (perhaps banking reform) will be the catalyst that allows a wider pool of investors to access the industry, which we think will create capital inflows and a re-rating of multiples.  The Senate is expected to introduce a sweeping legalization bill in April.  While most do not believe the bill has enough support to pass, many industry insiders think key senators would then pivot to focus on reform that is easier to pass.  Although we do not have a strong view on the timing of such legislation, we strongly believe it is a matter of “when” and not “if.”
 
We continue to remain very bullish on the cannabis businesses that the Fund owns, believing that the incredible growth in demand, government-restricted supply, and cheap EBITDA multiples will ultimately result in attractive prospective returns for the Fund.  However, we have allowed the Fund’s exposure to this industry to shrink as prices have come down.  Despite the seemingly more attractive valuations, we recognize that this industry trades very unconventionally and we would like to reduce concentration risk ahead of upcoming developments on the regulatory front.  The Fund ended the quarter with 11.7% invested in the cannabis industry, which is split between three companies which we view as the highest quality businesses in the industry.

Outlook
 
Although it was a slower than expected start, we remain optimistic about the remainder of the year.  The Fund has concentrated exposure to companies that we believe have significant competitive advantages, talented management teams, strong balance sheets, and trade at reasonable valuations.  We remain laser focused on identifying the best small cap opportunities that share these characteristics instead of trying to predict which sectors will be in favor next quarter or the direction of macroeconomic indicators.  Over longer-term periods, we expect this to produce attractive risk-adjusted returns.
 
Thank you for your trust and investment.  Our capital is invested alongside yours in the Fund and we remain very optimistic about its future.

April 1, 2022
 
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
 
There was nowhere to hide for investors in the first quarter of 2022.  We witnessed a pernicious combination of accelerating inflation and rising rates that dented every major asset class.  Income-oriented investors were especially affected by the rise in the cost of borrowing, which skewered long-duration bonds.  Treasuries and investment-grade bonds sold off significantly more than junk bonds, and even equity indices, as investors repositioned for the end of an overly accommodative Federal Reserve.

 
It turns out that low-single-digit coupons on long-dated fixed income securities are not especially attractive in a normalized environment.  Take Google’s 2.25% Senior Unsecured Bond due in 2060.  These bonds were issued in August 2020 when the 30-year Treasury was yielding a measly 1.25%.  The chart to the left highlights how brutal duration risk can be.  These bonds have sold off over 30% since issuance as rates have moved higher.

 
Our last several commentaries have outlined the peril of long-duration assets and what might happen if/when inflation spurs the Federal Reserve to act.  Fed fund futures are now predicting an effective rate of 2.735% by the end of the year

Intrepid Income Fund

 
compared to an effective rate of just 0.33% today.  It is hard for us to imagine anything but pain for fixed income indices if rates move that much that quickly.
 
We wish we could predict with certainty what will happen next.  Perhaps inflation has already peaked and now is a great time to buy long-duration assets.  Or perhaps inflation continues to accelerate, and we are headed for a recession as stimulus from the pandemic wears off and businesses fail to pass along higher input costs.  We believe that the Intrepid Income Fund (the “Fund”) is well positioned for either scenario.
 
The primary goal of the Fund is to make money in any environment.  To that end, we are pleased to have gained 0.16% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.  We accomplished this result through a mixture of careful underwriting and a focus on short-duration credits that are not as susceptible to the duration risk we discussed in the introduction.  We detail specific contributors and detractors for the Fund later in the commentary.
 
The beauty of our strategy is that we are constantly able to redeploy capital from maturing securities into the market.  For instance, we expect nearly 1/3 of the Fund’s current positions to be called or to mature before the end of 2022.  In a rising rate environment, this liquidity allows us to take advantage of more attractive prices on bonds as yields increase and prices fall.  Hence, we expect to continue enhancing the Fund’s yield profile to keep up with inflationary pressures.
 
At the end of the first quarter, the yield-to-worst on the Fund was 7.44%, nearly 200 basis points higher than at the end of the prior quarter.  Combined with our emphasis on smaller issue sizes, our strict underwriting criteria, and our short duration bias, we believe we are tailor-made for this environment.

Intrepid Income Fund

 
The chart below shows how our Fund’s metrics compare to various fixed income benchmarks.
 

Outside of the Fund, fixed income performance in the first quarter was down across the board.  The duration-heavy Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index (the “Bloomberg Aggregate Index”) dropped -5.93% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 and the ICE BofAML US Corporate Index (the “Corporate Index”) returned -7.74% over the same period.  Riskier debt also suffered, with the ICE BofAML High Yield Index (the “HY Index”) losing -4.51% in the quarter.  Even the shorter-duration Bloomberg US Govt/Credit 1-5 Year Total Return USD Index (the “1-5 Year TR Index”) lost -3.45% over the same period.
 
We also report semiannual results given the Fund’s 9/30 fiscal year end.  For the first six months of the Fund’s fiscal year, the Fund gained 1.51%.  This compares to a loss of -5.92% for the Bloomberg Aggregate Bond Index and a loss of -7.48% for the Corporate Index.  The 1-5 Year TR Index lost -4.15% and the HY Index lost -3.89% over the same period.
 
Our performance vs.  benchmarks is summarized in the table below.

 
The Fund’s success during the first calendar quarter was primarily attributable to idiosyncratic security performance, but we also benefited from our lack of exposure to longer duration credits.  Our top contributors for the three months ended 3/31/2022 included:
 
 
ZEV 7.5% due 5/15/2024 – Lightning eMotors Inc.  is an electric vehicle company with a very peculiar busted convertible bond.  The company

 
15

Intrepid Income Fund

 
   
emerged from a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) in May 2021, which is when the convert was issued, and the stock quickly deteriorated as SPACs broadly fell out of favor.
     
   
Although ZEV is not the sort of company we typically lend to, we recognized that the Colorado-based manufacturer was flush with cash, had an impressive backlog with blue-chip counterparties, and had massive equity backers like BP Technology Ventures (the venture capital arm of BP), which made it unlikely to default on its debt.  We began purchasing the converts at 70 cents on the dollar, which equated to a very juicy yield of over 20%.
     
   
Shortly after we started buying a position, the company announced a large deal with Forest River, a Berkshire Hathaway company, that sent the stock soaring.  The converts quickly traded up.  Luckily for us, ZEV’s stock has been volatile enough over the past few months that we have opportunistically built a larger position in the converts with a cost basis below 80 cents on the dollar.
     
   
The company continues to carry nearly $200 million of cash on its balance sheet against the ~$88 million outstanding on this convertible note.  We like the fact that the indenture for this note has some protections that are not normally found in a convert, like a negative pledge that restricts the company from borrowing any more debt, and a make-whole feature that allows us to convert the note early with a hefty cash premium from the company.  Given how soon these notes mature, we are confident that the company will find a way to refinance them.
     
   
We will consider adding to our small position in this quirky convert if the company continues its positive fundamental trajectory.
     
 
GRTWST 12% due 9/01/2025 – We have written at length in previous commentaries about our affinity for the debt of Great Western.  No issuer has contributed more to the Fund’s performance over the past few years.  Unfortunately, it seems our favorite driller’s legacy of creating value for the Fund will end towards the close of this Summer.
     
   
PDC Energy announced it is purchasing GRTWST for $1.3 billion and expects to close on the deal by the end of the 2nd quarter.  It is likely that PDC will refinance GRTWST’s bonds upon closing, which means we could get as high as 113 cents on the dollar for a bond that was issued at 97.5 cents on the dollar a little over a year ago and clipped 12% coupons in between.  We see very little risk of the deal not getting done
     
   
We have enjoyed nearly a 35% weighted-IRR across two separate issues since first purchasing GRTWST bonds.  We will be sad to see these go.
     
 
PBFX 6.875% due 5/15/2023 – PBFX continues to march closer to a refinancing, which we believe will happen before the end of the Summer.  The

 
16

Intrepid Income Fund

 
 
logistics company is a free cash flow machine and has done a nice job paying down its revolver in front of these notes coming due.  Nothing special caused these notes to trade up during the quarter, but we believe the market is starting to reward free cash flow generators against the backdrop of a rising rate environment.

Both ZEV and GRTWST were also top contributors for the six months ended 3/31/2021, along with:
 
 
TK 5% due 1/15/2023 – Similar to GRTWST, Teekay Corporation has created a lot of value for the Fund over the past couple of years.  In January, the company announced a tender offer for these convertible notes that was too good to pass up.  We received 102 cents on the dollar for a security we started accumulating for 80 cents on the dollar a couple of years ago.
     
   
Our top detractors for the three-month period ended 3/31/2021 all had one thing in common: a longer-dated maturity.  Although the vast majority of the Fund’s holdings are concentrated in short duration credits, we occasionally lend to exceptional companies for longer periods of time.  These positions included:
     
 
CNSL 5% due 10/01/2028 – Consolidated Communications Holdings, Inc.  is in the middle of an expensive buildout of its fiber network.  We believe in the long-term strategy of the company, and we like the fact it is backed by a strong private equity partner in Spotlight, but the duration risk for these notes was too great for us to hold onto them.  We sold out of this position completely during the quarter after suffering a modest loss.
     
 
LGIH 4% due 7/15/2029 – We have written in previous commentaries about why we like LGI Homes, Inc.  We believe this company is helping to address the shortage of affordable housing that our country faces.  However, the double whammy of a long-dated bond and a business that is susceptible to rising mortgage rates make this position too risky for the Fund.  We sold out of LGIH completely during the quarter at a loss but will look to add back to this position if the yield becomes attractive enough.
     
 
RAX 5.375% due 12/01/2028 –Rackspace Technology, Inc.  is generating decent free cash flow that it is using to improve its balance sheet and it only has modest capital expenditure needs.  Unfortunately, the bonds for this informational technology services company were long-dated enough to get whacked by the sell-off in duration.  We quickly trimmed this position in half during the quarter after suffering a modest loss and have watched the bonds continue to move lower.  We will consider adding back to this position as the yield on the notes moves closer to double-digit territory given that we love the underlying business.

Both CNSL and RAX were also top detractors for the six months ended 3/31/2021, along with:
 

 
17

Intrepid Income Fund

 
 
TPB 5.625% due 2/15/2026 – We have discussed Turning Point Brands, Inc.  extensively in previous commentaries.  These senior secured bonds are well covered by the underlying tobacco business (Stoker’s), which we believe should continue to generate gobs of cash flow in any economic environment.  Over the last year, TPB has experienced changes in the c-suite which has led to the stock selling off.  The new CEO, Efremov Yavor, responded by purchasing some shares in the open market.  We believe the bonds have suffered from being slightly longer dated, but we remain confident in the company’s long-term trajectory and have been adding to our position in the mid-90s.

The Income Fund had four corporate bond positions that were called or matured in the first calendar quarter.  We were very active in reducing or selling out of positions as they hit our internal yield bogey, or presented too much duration risk, completely exiting ten of our holdings.  The proceeds from the bonds that were called, sold, or matured were redeployed into a mixture of existing positions and new positions, including:
 
 
ESICN 9.25% due 4/15/2024 (Owned Previously) – We have written at length about Ensign Energy Services, Inc.  in previous commentaries.  We first purchased these bonds when they were issued in the primary market in early 2019.  Not long afterwards, oil prices began to deteriorate, and we quickly trimmed our exposure to oil field services, exiting ESICN completely.
     
   
The company took advantage of the turmoil in the energy market by buying back nearly $300 million worth of bonds at a deeply discounted price.  Today, the company has $400 million of bonds outstanding under this issue which sits beneath ~$700 million of revolver debt.  Despite this large debt load, the company should generate ~$130 million of free cash flow this year, almost all of which will go towards debt paydown, and should exit the year with less than 3x gross leverage.  We expect the landscape for drilling to continue improving as oil companies become more active and we think that Ensign should have an opportunity to refinance these bonds as soon as this Summer when the call price drops down to 102.313.
     
 
EXTNRG 8.125% due 5/01/2025 – Exterran Corporation is being acquired by Enerflex Limited in an all-share transaction, and these EXTNRG bonds will be taken out once the deal is closed.  EFX has committed bridge financing from RBC that will backstop an anticipated issuance of new debt securities prior to the close.  The combined company will be ~2.5x net levered and should have a BB+ rating, which means it will have a significantly lower coupon than the existing EXTNRG debt.
     
   
We were able to scoop up these EXTNRG 8.125% bonds at 100.75, which equates to a ~10% yield to the 102.03 call price if the deal closes by October 1st.  The company has communicated that closing should be in the 2nd or 3rd quarter, so we believe October 1st is a conservative estimate.

 
18

Intrepid Income Fund

 
   
Although we are highly confident the deal will close, we are also comfortable owning EXTNRG bonds were the deal to fall apart.  Exterran’s free cash flow profile and leverage is very similar to Ensign’s, and we will look to add to this position if the bonds sell off for any reason.
     
 
VRNO 8.5% due 8/28/2023 (New Tranche of Existing Loan Facility) – Verano is in our view one of the best positioned cannabis companies in the country, with exposure to limited license states like Florida, Illinois, and New Jersey.  This loan was an add-on to an existing facility that was syndicated by Chicago Atlantic Group, a REIT that underwrites secured debt in the cannabis space.  We believe the company will look to do a global refinancing on the entire loan facility later this year and we feel well covered by the underlying collateral on this 1st lien paper.
     
 
DISH 5.875% due 11/15/2024 – DISH DBS is one of the largest pay-TV providers with 8.2 million satellite customers and 2.5 million Sling TV subscribers.  The company is a cash flow machine that has managed quite well through continued subscriber losses.  Although net leverage is a little high at 3.7x, we believe the company is well positioned for 5G and should continue generating free cash flow to pay down debt.  We picked up these notes at a ~7% yield-to-worst which we believe is very attractive for a 2.5-year maturity.

Looking back over the past several quarters, we could not be more pleased with the way our strategy has worked in a volatile, rising-rate environment.  We are especially proud of the fact that we were up more than our benchmarks during last year’s bull market run and subsequently have made money so far this year during a sharp sell-off in nearly every asset class.
 
As the graph below shows, our short duration bias and high yield profile makes us a unique choice verses our benchmarks.  As rates continue to move higher, we think it is likely that we will continue to enhance our yield profile while keeping a relatively low effective duration.

Intrepid Income Fund

 
However, as inflation continues to wreak havoc, and rising rates dislodge stubbornly low yields on certain longer-dated fixed income securities, we will continue to stay open-minded.  The portfolio will always have a bias towards short-dated credits, but, at a certain point, we believe that there will be a golden opportunity to lend further out at attractive returns.  Until then, we will continue to sink the three-foot putts.
 
Thank you for your investment.

Mutual fund investing involves risk.  Principal loss is possible.
 
All investments involve risk.  Principal loss is possible.  Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise.  The risk is generally greater for longer term debt securities.  Investments by the Fund in lower-rated and non-rated securities present a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher rated securities.

The ICE BofAML US High Yield Index tracks the performance of US dollar denominated below investment grade corporate debt publicly issued in the US domestic market.  Qualifying securities must have a below investment grade rating (based on an average of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch), at least 18 months to final maturity at the time of issuance, at least one-year remaining term to final maturity as of the rebalancing date, a fixed coupon schedule and a minimum amount outstanding of $250 million.  The Bloomberg U.S.  Aggregate Bond Index is an index representing about 8,200 fixed income securities.  To be included in the index, bonds must be rated investment grade by Moody’s and S&P.  The Bloomberg US Gov/Credit 1-5Y TR Index measures the performance of U.S.  dollar-denominated U.S.  Treasury bonds, government-related bonds, and investment-grade U.S.  corporate bonds that have a remaining maturity of greater than or equal to one year and less than five years.  The ICE BofAML US Corporate Index tracks the performance of US dollar-denominated investment grade corporate debt publicly issued in the US domestic market.  You cannot invest directly in an index.
 
A high-yield bond is a high paying bond with lower credit rating than investment-grade corporate bonds, Treasury bonds and municipal bonds.  Bonds in high yield indices tend to be less liquid and more volatile than U.S.  Treasuries.  Corporate bonds come with significant credit risks and, although sometimes secured by collateral, do not have any guarantee of principal repayment.  U.S.  Treasury Bonds are long-term government debt securities with a maturity of more than 10 years.  They are guaranteed as to the timely payment of principal and interest and are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.  Government.  Investment Grade (IG) is a bond with credit rating of BBB or higher by Standard & Poor’s or Baa3 or higher by Moody’s.  Ratings are expressed as letters ranging from “AAA”, which is the highest grade, to “D”, which is the lowest grade.
 
Yield is the income return on an investment.  It refers to the interest or dividends received from a security and is usually expressed annually as a percentage based on the investment’s cost, its current market value or its face value.  Duration is an approximate measure of the price sensitivity of a fixed-income investment to a change in interest rates, expressed as a number of years.

Yield to worst is a measure of the lowest possible yield that can be received on a bond that fully operates within the terms of its contract without defaulting.  It is a type of yield that is referenced when a bond has provisions that would allow the issuer to close it out before it matures.
 
Basis points refers to a common unit of measure for interest rates and other percentages in finance.  One basis point is equal to 1/100th of 1%, or 0.01%, or 0.0001, and is used to denote the percentage change in a financial instrument.
 
Effective duration is a duration calculation for bonds that have embedded options.  This measure of duration takes into account the fact that expected cash flows will fluctuate as interest rates change and is, therefore, a measure of risk.
 
EBITDA, or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, is a measure of a company’s overall financial performance and is used as an alternative to net income in some circumstances.
 
A busted convertible bond is a convertible bond where the underlying stock trades far below its conversion price, causing it to act solely as a bond given that there is a very low probability that it will ever reach the convertible price before maturity.
 
A special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) is a company that has no commercial operations and is formed strictly to raise capital through an initial public offering (IPO) or the purpose of acquiring or merging with an existing company.
 
Free cash flow represents the cash a company generates after accounting for cash outflows to support operations and maintain its capital assets.
 
Weighted-IRR is the dollar-weighted average internal rate of return for an investment over a specific time horizon.  Internal rate of return is a measurement of a portfolio’s actual return between dates, including the effects from all cash inflows and outflows.

EXPENSE EXAMPLE
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Intrepid Capital Management Funds Trust (the “Funds”), you incur ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other expenses incurred by the Funds.  This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare 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 the entire period of October 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022.
 
Actual Expenses

The first line of the following table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses.  Although the Funds charge no sales load or transaction fees, you will be assessed fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks or stop payment orders at prevailing rates charged by U.S. Bank Global Fund Services, the Funds’ transfer agent.  If you request a redemption be made by wire transfer, currently a $15.00 fee is charged by the Funds’ transfer agent.  To the extent that a Fund invests in shares of other investment companies as part of its investment strategy, you will indirectly bear your proportionate share of any fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds in which the Fund invests in addition to the expenses of the Fund.  Actual expenses of the underlying funds are expected to vary among the various underlying funds.  These expenses are not included in the following example.  The example includes, but is not limited to, management fees, shareholder servicing fees, distribution fees, fund accounting, custody and transfer agent fees.  However, the example below does not include portfolio trading commissions and related expenses, interest expense and other extraordinary expenses as determined under generally accepted accounting principles.  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 following table 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 you paid for the period.  You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and 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 and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange 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.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).  The Funds are investment companies and, accordingly, follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Investment Companies.
 
Valuation of Securities
 
The Trust has adopted authoritative fair valuation accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value.  These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion in changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period.  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).

Equity investments, including common stocks, foreign issued common stocks, exchange-traded funds, closed end mutual funds, real estate investments trusts and

certain preferred securities, which are traded on an exchange (other than The NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc., referred to as “NASDAQ”) are valued at the last sale price reported by the exchange on which the securities are primarily traded on the day of valuation.  Securities that are traded on NASDAQ under one of its three listing tiers, NASDAQ Global Market, NASDAQ Global Select Market and NASDAQ Capital Market, are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.  If there are no sales on a given day for securities traded on an exchange, the latest mean quotation will be used.  If there is no Nasdaq Official Closing Price for a Nasdaq-listed security or sale price available for an over-the-counter security, the latest mean quotations from Nasdaq will be used.  When using the market quotations or closing price provided by the pricing service and when the market is considered active, the security will be classified as a Level 1 security.  When using the latest mean quotation, the security will be classified as Level 2.
 
Investment in mutual funds, including money market funds, are generally priced at the ending net asset value (NAV) provided by the service agent of the funds and will be classified as Level 1 securities.
 
Debt securities, such as corporate bonds, convertible bonds, senior loans, and U.S. government agency issues for which market quotations are not readily available may be valued based on information supplied by independent pricing services using matrix pricing formulas and/or independent broker bid quotations.  Debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less may be valued on an amortized cost basis to the extent it is equivalent to fair value, which involves valuing an instrument at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the impact of fluctuating rates on the fair value of the instrument.  Amortized cost will not be used if it does not approximate fair value, due to credit or other impairments of the issuer.  These securities will generally be classified as Level 2 securities.
 
Options can diverge from the prices of their underlying instruments.  These are valued at the composite last price reported by the exchange on which the options are primarily traded on the day of the valuation and are classified as Level 1.  If there is no composite last price on a given day the latest mean will be used.  When using the latest mean quotation, these contracts are classified as Level 2.
 
Forward currency contracts derive their value from the underlying currency prices.  These are valued by a pricing service using pricing models.  The models use inputs that are observed from active markets, such as exchange rates.  These contracts are classified as Level 2.
 
Futures contracts are valued at the last sale price at the close of trading on the relevant exchange or board of trade.  If there was no sale on the applicable exchange or board of trade on such day, they are valued at the average of the quoted bid and

asked prices as of the close of such exchange or board of trade.  When using the market quotations and when the market is considered active, the contract will be classified as Level 1.
 
Any securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Funds’ adviser pursuant to procedures established under the general supervision and responsibility of the Funds’ Board of Trustees and will be classified as Level 3 assets.
 
The inputs of methodology used for valuing securities may not be an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
 
As of March 31, 2022, the Funds’ assets and liabilities carried at fair value were classified as follows:

The price quote is provided by the loan’s underwriter who maintains an active market in the loan and has knowledge of existing and prospective holders.
 
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
 
The Funds’ adviser may use derivative instruments, such as forward currency contracts, as a means to manage exposure to different types of risk, including market risk  and exchange rate risk, and to gain exposure to underlying securities. During the period ended March 31, 2022, the Intrepid Income Fund and the Intrepid Endurance Fund held derivative instruments.
 
Forward Currency Contracts
 
The Intrepid Income Fund and Intrepid Endurance Fund used forward currency contracts during the period for the purpose of hedging exposures to non-U.S. dollar denominated assets. In general the use of these contracts may reduce the overall risk level in a fund, but may also lower fund performance. The use of these contracts does not create leverage in the Fund, but does expose the Fund to counterparty credit risk. When the contract is settled, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it settled.

Offsetting on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities
 
For financial reporting purposes, the Fund offsets financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements within appreciation on forward currency contracts and depreciation on forward currency contracts on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
 
As of March 31, 2022, the gross amount of derivative assets and liabilities which were not offset for the Intrepid Endurance Fund or for the Intrepid Income Fund are presented gross on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Intrepid Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

Derivative Risk
 
The risks of using the types of derivatives in which the Funds may engage include the risk that movements in the value of the derivative may not fully offset or complement instruments currently held in the Funds in the manner intended by the Funds’ adviser; the risk that the counterparty to a derivative contract may fail to comply with their obligations to the Fund; the risk that the derivative may not possess a liquid secondary market at a time when the Fund would look to disengage the position; the risk that additional capital from the Fund may be called upon to fulfill the conditions of the derivative contract; and the risk that the cost of the derivative contracts may reduce the overall returns experienced by the Funds.
 
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 those estimates.
 
Indemnification
 
In the normal course of business the Funds enter into contracts that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims against the Funds that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
 
Foreign Currency Transactions
 
The books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars.  Foreign currency denominated transactions (i.e. market value of investment securities, assets and liabilities, purchases and sales of investment securities, and income and expenses) are translated into U.S. dollars at the current rate of exchange.  The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held.  Such fluctuations are reflected in net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments and foreign currency translation.
 
The value of a Fund’s foreign investments may be significantly affected by changes in currency exchange rates and the Fund may incur costs in converting securities denominated in foreign currencies to U.S. dollars. In many countries, there is less publicly available information about issuers than is available in the reports and ratings published about companies in the United States. Additionally, foreign companies are not subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards. Dividends and interest on foreign securities may be subject to foreign withholding taxes, which would reduce the Fund’s income without providing a tax credit for the Fund’s shareholders.

Intrepid Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

Although each Fund intends to invest in securities of foreign issuers domiciled in nations which the Adviser considers as having stable and friendly governments, there is the possibility of expropriation, confiscatory taxation, currency blockage or political or social instability which would affect investments in those nations.
 
Securities Transactions and Investment Income
 
The Funds record security transactions based on trade date.  Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.  Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the lives of the respective securities using the effective yield method.  Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.  Net realized gains or losses are determined using the identified cost method.
 
Distribution to Shareholder Policy
 
Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid at least monthly or quarterly, for Intrepid Income Fund and Intrepid Capital Fund, respectively and annually for Intrepid Endurance Fund. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually.
 
Federal Income Taxes
 
The Funds comply with, and intend to continue to comply with, the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and to make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to its shareholders sufficient to relieve it from Federal income taxes.
 
Allocation of Income, Expenses, and Gains/Losses
 
Income, expenses (other than those deemed to be attributable to a specific share class), and gains and losses of each Fund are allocated to each class of shares based upon the ratio of net assets represented by each class as a percentage of the net assets of that Fund.  Expenses deemed directly attributable to a specific class of shares are charged against the operations of such class.  Most Fund expenses are allocated by class based on relative net assets.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
 
In March 2020, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)—Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 provides optional temporary financial reporting relief from the effect of certain types of contract modifications due to the planned discontinuation of LIBOR and other interbank-offered based reference rates as of the end of 2021. ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management is currently evaluating the

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

impact of the optional guidance on the Fund’s financial statements and disclosures. The Fund did not utilize the optional expedients and exceptions provided by ASU No. 2020-04 during the period ended March 31, 2022.
 
Other Risks
 
The global outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) has disrupted global economic markets and adversely affected individual companies and investment products. The prolonged economic impact of COVID-19 is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Fund invests depends on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the value of the Fund’s investments.
 
Subsequent Events Evaluation
 
On February 22, 2022, the Board of Trustees of Intrepid Capital Management Funds Trust, based on the recommendation of Intrepid Capital Management, Inc., the adviser to the Intrepid Endurance Fund, approved a change in the name and principal investment strategies of the Intrepid Endurance Fund to Intrepid Small Cap Fund (the “Fund”). In connection with this name change, the Board also approved the adoption and implementation of non-fundamental investment policy requiring that the Fund invest at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities of small capitalization companies.  Otherwise, the principal investment strategies of the Fund remain unchanged, as do the “Principal Risks” of the Fund. The changes to the Fund’s name and principal investment strategies will become effective on June 6, 2022.
 
In preparing these financial statements, the Trust has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure resulting from subsequent events after the Statements of Assets and Liabilities date of March 31, 2022 through the date the financial statements were available for issue. This evaluation did not result in any subsequent events that necessitated disclosure and/or adjustments.
 
3.    INVESTMENT ADVISER

The Trust has entered into investment advisory agreements (collectively, “Agreement”) with Intrepid Capital Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”), with whom certain officers and Trustees of the Trust are affiliated, to furnish investment advisory services to the Funds.  Under the terms of the Agreement, the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, compensates the Adviser for its management services on the Intrepid Capital Fund at the annual rate of 1.00% on the first $500 million of average daily net assets and 0.80% on each of the Fund’s average daily net assets in excess of $500 million, on the Intrepid Endurance Fund at an annual rate of 1.00% of average daily net assets, and on Intrepid Income Fund at the annual rate of 0.75% of average daily net assets.
 
For the Intrepid Capital Fund, the Adviser agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse other expenses in both the Investor Share Class and Institutional Share Class,

 
58

Intrepid Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

including organization expenses, to the extent necessary to ensure that operating expenses did not exceed 1.15%. The Investor Share Class may have a Net Expense ratio higher than these expense caps as a result of any sales, distribution and other fees incurred under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), acquired fund fees and expenses or other expenses (such as taxes, interest, brokerage commissions and extraordinary items) that are excluded from the calculation. For the Intrepid Endurance Fund, effective January 22, 2021 in connection with the Reorganization (see Note 9), the Adviser agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse other expenses in both the Investor Share Class and Institutional Share Class, including organization expenses, to the extent necessary to ensure that the operating expenses did not exceed 1.05% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the Investor Class shares of the Fund, and do not exceed 1.15% of the average daily net assets for the Institutional Class shares.  The Investor Share Class may have a Net Expense ratio higher than these expense caps as a result of any sales, distribution and other fees incurred under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, acquired fund fees and expenses or other expenses (such as taxes, interest, brokerage commissions and extraordinary items) are excluded from the calculation. For the Intrepid Income Fund, the Adviser agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse other expenses of the Fund, including organization expenses, to the extent necessary to ensure that the Fund’s operating expenses did not exceed 0.90% of average daily net assets.  The Fund may have Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses after Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement higher than these expense caps as a result of acquired fund fees and expenses or other expenses (such as taxes, interest, brokerage commissions and extraordinary items) that are excluded from the calculation.  Any such waivers or reimbursements for the Funds are subject to later adjustment to allow the Adviser to recoup amounts waived or reimbursed to the extent actual fees and expenses on a monthly basis during the fiscal year are less than the respective expense cap limitations, provided, however, that the Adviser shall only be entitled to recoup such amounts for a period of three years from the month such amount was waived or reimbursed.  Waived/reimbursed expenses subject to potential recovery by year of expiration are as follows:

There is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on the tax returns for the fiscal year-end September 30, 2021, or for any other tax years which are open for exam. As of September 30, 2021, the Intrepid Capital Fund, the Intrepid Endurance Fund and the Intrepid Income Fund’s open tax years include the tax years ended September 30, 2018 through 2021. The Trust is 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 year. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties, nor were any accrued as of September 30, 2021.
 
8.    LINE OF CREDIT

The Intrepid Capital Management Funds Trust has a $20,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured, umbrella 364-day line of credit, for temporary emergency purposes, including the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of securities. The average interest rate as of March 31, 2022 was 3.00%. During the period ended March 31, 2022, the Intrepid Income Fund’s maximum borrowing was $14,781,000 and average borrowing was $1,831,555.  The Intrepid Endurance Fund and the Intrepid Capital Fund did not use the line.
 
9.    REORGANIZATION

On January 22, 2021, the Intrepid Endurance Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”) acquired all the net assets of the Intrepid Disciplined Value Fund (the “Acquired Fund”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization approved by the series’ board of trustees on November 17, 2020. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two funds managed by the Adviser with comparable investment objectives and strategies. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 1,027,967 shares of the Acquiring Fund (valued at $18,311,674) for all 1,576,243 shares of the Acquired Fund at the close of business on January 22, 2021. For financial reporting purposes, assets received, and shares issued by the Acquiring Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Acquired Fund was carried forward to align ongoing reporting to the Acquiring Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes. The Acquired Fund’s net assets at that date ($18,311,674), including $6,619,064 of unrealized appreciation, were combined with those of the Acquiring Fund. The aggregate net assets of the Acquiring Fund immediately before the acquisition were $68,948,878. The aggregate net assets of the Acquiring Fund immediately after the acquisition were $87,260,552. Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue

and earnings of the Acquired Fund that have been included on the Acquiring Fund’s Statement of Operations since January 22, 2021. 60% of the costs associated with the Plan of Reorganization were paid by the Adviser. 40% of the costs associated with the Plan of Reorganization were paid by the Acquired Fund and Acquiring Fund.
 
Assuming the acquisition had been completed on October 1, 2020, the beginning of the annual reporting year for the Acquiring Fund, the Acquired Fund’s pro forma results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2022, are as follows:
 
Net Investment Loss:

10.   LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Consistent with Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Fund has established a liquidity risk management program to manage “liquidity risk” (the “LRMP”). “Liquidity Risk” is defined as the risk that the Fund could not meet requests to redeem shares issued by a Fund without significant dilution of remaining investors’ interest in the Fund. The LRMP is overseen by the Program Administrator, a committee comprised of representatives of the Fund’s investment adviser and officers of the Fund. The Fund’s Board of Directors has approved the designation of the Program Administrator to oversee the LRMP.
 
On November 9, 2021, the Trustees reviewed and considered a written report prepared by the Program Administrator that addressed the operation of the LRMP and assessed the LRMP’s adequacy and effectiveness of implementation for the most recent annual period (the “Review Period”). During the period covered by the report, it was determined that: (1) the LRMP continues to be reasonably designed to effectively assess and manage the Funds’ Liquidity Risk; and (2) the LRMP has been adequately and effectively implemented with respect to the Fund during the reporting period. Following the Trustees’ review and discussion, they determined that they believe the disclosures in the report, taken as a whole, provide the information necessary for the Trustees to effectively asses the LRMP and its implementation during the Review Period, and that they are comfortable with the report’s conclusion that the LRMP is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Funds’ liquidity risk and complies with the requirements of Rule 22e-4, and that the LRMP has operated as intended during the Review Period.

Investment Advisory Agreement Disclosure
 
On November 9, 2021, the Board of Trustees of Intrepid Capital Management Funds Trust (the “Trustees”) approved the continuation of the investment advisory agreements for the Intrepid Capital Fund, the Intrepid Endurance Fund and the Intrepid Income Fund (each a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”) with the investment adviser to the Funds, Intrepid Capital Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”). As part of the process of approving the continuation of the advisory agreements, the Trustees reviewed the fiduciary duties of the Trustees with respect to approving the advisory agreements and the relevant factors for the Trustees to consider, and the members of the Board of Trustees who are not deemed “interested persons” (as that term is defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940) of the Funds (the “Independent Trustees”) met in executive session to discuss the renewal of the advisory agreements.
 
In advance of the meetings, the Adviser sent detailed information to the Trustees to assist them in their evaluation of the investment advisory agreements. This information included, but was not limited to, a memorandum from Fund counsel that summarized the legal standards applicable to the Trustees’ consideration of the advisory agreements; detailed comparative information relating to the Funds’ management fees and other expenses of the Funds; information regarding fees paid and other payments; information on the Adviser’s profitability; information about brokerage commissions; detailed comparative information relating to the Funds’ performance; information about sales and redemptions of the Funds; information about the Funds’ compliance program; and other information the Trustees believed was useful in evaluating the approval of advisory agreements.
 
All of the factors discussed by the Trustees were considered as a whole, and were considered separately by the Independent Trustees, meeting in executive session. The factors were viewed in their totality by the Trustees, with no single factor being the principal or decisive factor in the Trustees’ determination of whether to approve the continuation of the investment advisory agreements. The Trustees recognized that the management and fee arrangements for the Funds are the result of years of review and discussion between the Independent Trustees and the Adviser, that certain aspects of such arrangements may receive greater scrutiny in some years than in others and that the Trustees’ conclusions may be based, in part, on their consideration of these same arrangements and information received during the course of the year and in prior years. Prior to approving the continuation of the investment advisory agreements, the Trustees and the Independent Trustees in executive session considered, among other items:
 
 
The nature and quality of the investment advisory services provided by the Adviser.

 
66

Intrepid Funds

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (continued)
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

 
A comparison of the fees and expenses of the Funds to other similar funds.
     
 
A comparison of the fee structures of other accounts managed by the Adviser.
     
 
Whether economies of scale are recognized by the Funds.
     
 
The costs and profitability of the Funds to the Adviser.
     
 
The performance of the Funds.
     
 
The other benefits to the Adviser from serving as investment adviser to the Funds (in addition to the advisory fee).

The material considerations and determinations of the Board of Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, are as follows:
 
Nature and Quality of Investment Advisory Services
 
The Trustees noted that the Adviser supervises the investment portfolios of the Funds, directing the day-to-day management of the Funds’ portfolios, including the purchase and sale of investment securities, and they concluded that the Adviser expends substantial resources to provide this supervision. The Trustees then discussed with management the nature of the investment process employed by the portfolio managers of the Funds, which is highly research intensive, and requires that the Adviser expend substantial resources to determine the portfolio of the Funds.
 
Management noted that in employing its strategy, the Adviser conducts extensive research on target companies, including telephonic and onsite interviews with management, competitors, analysts and others. The Trustees then discussed staffing at the Adviser, and concluded that the Adviser has sufficient staffing to conduct the research needed to meet the investment objectives of the Funds.
 
The Trustees also considered the background and experience of the Adviser’s senior management and expertise of, and the level of attention given to the Funds by, investment personnel of the Adviser, and determined that the personnel servicing the Funds are well qualified. In addition, the Trustees deliberated on the quality of the material service providers to the Funds, who provide administrative and distribution services on behalf of the Funds and are overseen by the Adviser, and the overall reputation and capabilities of the Adviser, noting that they believe the service providers are respected in the industry and provide valuable services to the Funds.
 
Based on the Trustees’ review, the Trustees believe that the Adviser provides high quality services to the Funds, and they noted that their overall confidence in the Adviser is high. The Trustees also determined that they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the investment advisory services provided to the Funds by the Adviser, and that the nature and extent of the services provided by the Adviser are appropriate to assure that each Fund’s operations are conducted in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Comparative Fees and Expenses
 
The Trustees then discussed with management the variables, in addition to the management fees, such as administrative and transaction fees that impact costs to the shareholders of the Funds, noting that as discussed, managing the Funds is resource intensive. Management reviewed with the Trustees the comparison of the Funds’ expense ratios to other similar funds. As part of the discussion with management, the Trustees ensured that they understood and were comfortable with the criteria used by the Adviser to determine the mutual funds that make up the peer universes for purposes of their review.
 
While the Funds had higher than average fees and expenses, the Trustees believe this was due to the resource intensive nature of the Funds and the lower average net assets under management of the Funds when compared to the peer groups. The Trustees concluded that the expense ratios of the Funds are within a reasonable range of comparable mutual funds, and that the Funds’ fees are reasonable.
 
Comparison of Fee Structures of Other Accounts
 
The Trustees then inquired of management regarding the distinction between the services performed by the Adviser for separate accounts or private investment companies and those performed by the Adviser for the Funds. The Adviser noted that the management of the Funds involves more comprehensive and substantive duties than the management of separate accounts or private investment companies. Specifically, the Adviser noted the following:
 
 
The Adviser provides tailored investment advisory services to the Funds in order to accommodate the cash flow volatility presented by the purchases and redemptions of shareholders.
     
 
With regard to the Funds, the Adviser attempts to serve the needs of thousands of accounts, ranging from direct accounts holding a few thousand dollars to the large omnibus accounts of intermediaries who in turn service thousands of large and small accounts.
     
 
The Adviser maintains a robust shareholder communication effort for the Funds to reach shareholders through direct contact, through intermediaries, or via the financial press.
     
 
The Adviser coordinates with the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer and other service providers to insure compliance with regulatory regimens imposed by Federal law and the Internal Revenue Code.
     
 
Separate accounts or private investment companies do not require the same level of services and oversight, nor do they present the same compliance risk.

Intrepid Funds

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (continued)
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

The Trustees concluded that the services performed by the Adviser for the Funds require a higher level of service and oversight than the services performed by the Adviser for separate accounts or private investment companies, and that the services performed by the Adviser for the Funds require a higher level of compliance resources from the Adviser. Based on this determination, the Trustees believe that the differential in advisory fees between the Funds and the separate accounts and private investment companies is reasonable, and concluded that the fee rates charged to the Funds in comparison to those charged to the Adviser’s other clients are reasonable.
 
In addition to the above, the Trustees discussed with management the fact that increasingly investors in the Funds invest through brokerage platforms (intermediaries), with fewer investors going directly to the Funds’ transfer agent. The Trustees noted that in connection with the intermediaries, the Adviser absorbs all costs in excess of the fees paid by the Funds. As result, the cost of obtaining, retaining and servicing shareholders for the Funds is significantly higher than the costs for separately managed accounts.
 
Performance
 
The Trustees noted that at each quarterly meeting, the Trustees review reports comparing the investment performance of the Funds to various indices. Based on the information provided at this meeting and the information and quarterly discussions regarding the Funds’ investment performance, the Trustees believe that the Adviser manages the Funds in a manner that is materially consistent with their stated investment objective and style.
 
The Trustees reviewed the Adviser’s quality of investment management, management history and ability to successfully market the Funds. The Trustees noted that  while the Funds have underperformed, the investment strategies of the Funds are designed to provide lower risk, which means it is expected that the Funds will underperform on a comparative basis during periods of market outperformance, but that investors should be protected in case of a downturn in the market.
 
The Trustees concluded that the performance of the Funds, adjusting for risk, has been satisfactory on a relative basis and on an absolute basis. They continue to believe that the Adviser’s discipline should lead to more favorable results in the long-term, and concluded that renewal of the existing advisory agreement was in the best interest of the Funds’ shareholders.
 
Costs and Profitability
 
The Trustees considered the cost of services provided and the profits realized by the Adviser, by reviewing reports provided by the Funds’ administrator that compared the Funds’ investment advisory fees to those of other comparable mutual funds. Mr. Travis acknowledged that the Funds’ contractual investment advisory fee was higher than the industry average and attributed it to other peer funds realizing
 

 
69

Intrepid Funds

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (continued)
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

economies of scale to decrease advisory costs. The Trustees also considered the Funds’ overall expense ratios compared to peer group funds and the Adviser’s willingness to waive a portion of its advisory fees to keep the overall expenses of the Funds lower.
 
The Trustees discussed the Adviser’s profitability, as presented, and the impact of the intermediary service fees on the profitability. The Trustees also considered the resources and revenues that the Adviser has put into managing and distributing the Funds, and concluded that the level of profitability realized by the Adviser from its provision of services to the Funds is reasonable, and that the overall expense ratios and investment advisory fees were fair and within a reasonable range of industry averages.
 
Economies of Scale
 
The Trustees then discussed with management whether economies of scale are recognized by the Funds. They noted that as Fund assets grow, certain fixed costs are spread over the larger asset base, which may lead to some economies of scale. On the other hand, the Trustees noted that many of the Funds’ expenses are subject to diseconomies of scale. For example, the intermediary service fees generally increase as the Funds’ assets grow. Given the size of the Funds and the reimbursements being made by the Adviser, the Trustees determined that the proposed fee schedules were acceptable.
 
Fall-Out Benefits
 
The Trustees then considered other benefits to the Adviser from serving as adviser to the Funds (in addition to the advisory fee). The Trustees noted that the Adviser derives ancillary benefits from its association with the Funds in the form of proprietary and third party research products and services received from broker dealers that execute portfolio trades for the Funds. The Trustees determined such products and services have been used for legitimate purposes relating to the Funds by providing assistance in the investment decision-making process. The Trustees concluded that the other benefits realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Funds were reasonable.
 
Conclusion
 
After reviewing the materials and management’s presentation, as well as other information regularly provided at the Board’s quarterly meetings throughout the year regarding the quality of services provided by the Adviser, the performance of the Funds, expense information, regulatory compliance issues, trading information and related matters and other factors deemed relevant by the Trustees, the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the investment advisory agreements.
 
The Trustees noted that all of the factors above were considered by them as a whole, and separately by the Independent Trustee meeting in executive session. The factors were viewed in their totality by the Trustees, with no single factor being the
