Income, expenses (other than class specific expenses) and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based upon its relative net assets.
(2) | Significant Accounting Policies |
The Funds are investment companies and follow accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, “Financial Services-Investment Companies”. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
Investments in Securities
Investments in securities traded on national or international securities exchanges are valued at the last reported sales price prior to the time when assets are valued. Equity securities traded on the over-the-counter market are valued at the last reported sales price or if the last sales price is not available, at the last reported bid price. The sale and bid prices or prices deemed best to reflect fair value quoted by dealers who make markets in these securities are obtained from independent pricing services. Consistent with the Funds’ valuation policies and procedures, debt securities maturing in more than 60 days are priced by an independent pricing service. The pricing service may use models that price securities based on current yields and relative security characteristics, such as coupon rate, maturity date, issuer credit quality, and
48 | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND OTHER INFORMATION |
prepayment speeds as applicable. When market quotations are not readily available, or when Sit Investment Associates, Inc. (the “Adviser” or “SIA”) becomes aware that a significant event impacting the value of a security or group of securities has occurred after the closing of the exchange on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the calculation of the daily net asset value, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith using procedures established by the Funds’ Board of Directors. The procedures consider, among others, the following factors to determine a security’s fair value: the nature and pricing history (if any) of the security; whether any dealer quotations for the security are available; and possible valuation methodologies that could be used to determine the fair value of the security. Debt securities of sufficient credit quality maturing in less than 60 days when acquired, or which subsequently are within 60 days of maturity, are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold. Securities gains and losses are calculated on the identified-cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon the receipt of ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign securities. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis, including level-yield amortization of long-term bond premium and discount using the effective yield method.
Fair Value Measurements
The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Funds’ investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:
• Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. An active market for the security is a market in which transactions occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value.
• Level 2 – debt securities are valued based on evaluated prices received from independent pricing services or from dealers who make markets in such securities. For corporate bonds, U.S. government and government agency obligations, and municipal securities the pricing services utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, and type as well as dealer supplied prices. For asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities, the pricing services utilize matrix pricing which considers prepayment speed assumptions, attributes of the collateral, yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, and type as well as dealer supplied prices. For foreign equities, the pricing services adjust closing prices by applying a systematic process for events occurring after the close of the foreign exchange by utilizing such inputs as Depositary Receipts, quoted prices for similar securities, exchange rates, and certain indexes. All of these inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. An adjustment to any observable input that is significant to the fair value may render the measurement a Level 3 measurement.
• Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs, including the Adviser’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
A summary of the levels for the Funds’ investments as of December 31, 2024 is included with the Funds’ schedules of investments.
Foreign Currency Translations and Forward Foreign Currency Contracts
The fair value of securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies for Global Dividend Growth, ESG Growth, International Growth and Developing Markets Growth Funds are translated daily into U.S. dollars at the closing rate of exchange (approximately 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time). Purchases and sales of securities, income and expenses are translated at the exchange rate on the transaction date. Dividend and interest income includes currency exchange gains (losses) realized between the accrual and payment dates on such income. Exchange gains (losses) may also be realized between the trade and settlement dates on security and forward contract transactions. For securities denominated in foreign currencies, the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on realized and unrealized gains or losses is reflected as a component of such gains or losses.
The Global Dividend Growth, ESG Growth, International Growth and Developing Markets Growth Funds may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts generally for operational purposes, but the Adviser may occasionally utilize contracts to protect against adverse exchange rate fluctuation. Any gains (losses) generated by these contracts are disclosed separately on the statements of operations.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
Six Months Ended December 31, 2024 (Continued)
The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual commitments held by the Funds and the resulting unrealized appreciation or depreciation is determined using foreign currency exchange rates from an independent pricing service. The Funds are subject to the credit risk that the other party will not complete the obligations of the contract.
Federal Taxes
The Funds’ policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of their taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no income tax provision is required. In order to avoid the payment of any federal excise taxes, the Funds will distribute substantially all of their net investment income and net realized gains on a calendar year basis. Also, the Funds may utilize equalization accounting for tax purposes, whereby a portion of redemption payments are treated as distributions of income or gain for income tax purposes.
Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken in federal tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that as of December 31, 2024, no provision for income tax would be required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue until such time as the applicable statute of limitations for audit has expired. For example, U.S. tax returns are generally subject to audit for three years from the date they are filed.
At December 31, 2024, the gross unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments and cost of securities on a tax basis for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Net investment income and net realized gains differ for financial statement and tax purposes because of corporate actions on shares held and/or losses deferred due to “wash sale” transactions. A “wash sale” occurs when a Fund sells a security that it has acquired within a period beginning thirty days before and ending thirty days after the date of sale (a sixty one day period). The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may also differ from its ultimate characterization for tax purposes. Also, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the Funds. The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was as follows:

Distributions
Distributions to shareholders are recorded as of the close of business on the record date. Such distributions are payable in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the Funds’ capital stock. Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid quarterly for the Balanced, Dividend Growth, Global Dividend Growth and Small Cap Dividend Growth Funds and declared and paid annually for Developing Markets Growth, Small Cap Growth, International Growth, Mid Cap Growth, Large Cap Growth and ESG Growth Funds. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, will be made annually for each of the Funds.
Concentration of Investments
The Developing Markets Growth Fund may concentrate investments in countries with limited or developing capital markets which may involve greater risks than investments in more developed markets and the prices of such investments may be volatile. The consequences of political, social or economic changes in these markets may have disruptive effects on the market prices of the Fund’s investments and the income it generates, as well as the Fund’s ability to repatriate such amounts.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain 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 results for the respective periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
Under each Fund’s organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to each Fund. In addition, certain of each Fund’s contracts with its service providers contain general indemnification clauses. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown since the amount of any future claims that may be made against each Fund cannot be determined and each Fund has no historical basis for predicting the likelihood of any such claims.
(3) Investment Security Transactions
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities, other than short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2024, were as follows:

Item 11: | Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Contract. |
During the Registrant’s most recent fiscal half-year, the Boards of Directors approved the renewal of the investment management agreements with the Sit Mutual Funds. Below is the Boards’ discussion at the October 29, 2024 board meeting of the material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the board’s approval.
BOARD RE-APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS
At their joint meeting held on October 29, 2024, the Boards of Directors (the “Boards”) of Sit Mid Cap Growth Fund, Inc., Sit Large Cap Growth Fund, Inc., Sit International Growth Fund, Sit Balanced Fund, Sit Developing Markets Growth Fund, Sit ESG Growth Fund, Sit Small Cap Growth Fund, Sit Dividend Growth Fund, Sit Global Dividend Growth Fund and Sit Small Cap Dividend Growth Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) unanimously approved the continuation for another one-year period of the investment management agreements entered into by and between Sit Investment Associates, Inc. (“SIA”) and each of Sit Mid Cap Growth Fund, Inc., dated November 1, 1996; Sit Large Cap Growth Fund, Inc., dated November 1, 1996; and Sit Mutual Funds Inc., dated November 1, 1992 (collectively, the “Agreements”).
In advance of the October 29, 2024 meeting, the Boards requested and received materials from SIA to assist them in considering the re-approval of the Agreements. The Boards, including all of the Directors who are not “interested persons” (as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)) of the Funds (the “non-interested Directors”) approved the Agreements after discussion and consideration of various factors relating to the Boards’ selection of SIA as the Funds’ investment adviser and the Boards’ approval of the fees to be paid under the Agreements. In evaluating the Agreements, the Directors relied upon their knowledge, resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year, of SIA and its services and personnel. The Directors did not consider any single factor as controlling in determining whether to approve the Agreements, and the items described herein are not all-encompassing of the matters considered by the Directors.
Investment Adviser Criteria. The Directors began their analysis by discussing their criteria for determining the quality of an investment adviser. In this regard, the Directors noted that their criteria were similar to those used by institutional investors in evaluating and selecting investment advisers. The Directors discussed several factors in assessing the nature, extent and quality of the services performed by SIA, including the following:
Investment Philosophy and Process. The Directors considered SIA’s philosophy of managing assets. With respect to equity securities, the Directors noted that SIA seeks to identify growth-oriented securities issued by companies with the potential for earnings growth at a faster rate than the general economy and market indices. The Directors considered SIA’s belief that earnings growth is the primary determinant of superior long-term returns for equity securities, and that SIA invests in companies it believes exhibit above-market and consistent growth, as well as conservative and cyclical growth companies. They also considered that SIA’s active management style concentrates on the best growth opportunities at reasonable valuation levels. The Directors determined that the Funds’ investment objectives are consistent with SIA’s investment philosophy and growth style. The Directors reviewed the Funds’ portfolio characteristics and noted that SIA consistently managed the Funds in a growth style. The Directors found no indication in reviewing the Funds’ portfolio characteristics of style drift away from growth stocks over market cycles. The Directors noted that, in periods during which growth stocks have generally under-performed relative to value stocks, Fund performance may not rank favorably in comparisons with other funds investing in value stocks.
The Directors discussed SIA’s consistent and well-defined investment process. With respect to equity securities, the Directors noted that SIA utilizes a team-based, top-down and bottom-up investment decision making process.
Investment Professionals. The Directors discussed the experience, knowledge and organizational stability of SIA and its investment professionals. The Directors noted that SIA’s senior professionals are actively involved in the investment process and have significant investment industry experience.
The Directors discussed the depth of SIA’s investment staff, noting that SIA has over 35 investment professionals. Given the investment products offered by SIA and SIA’s amount of assets under management, the Directors determined that SIA’s investment staff is well positioned to meet the current needs of its clients, including the Funds, and to accommodate growth in its number of clients and assets under management for the near future. The Directors concluded that the depth of SIA’s investment staff, and in particular senior management and investment analysts, is actually greater than the Funds currently require at their present asset size. The Directors noted that SIA has the resources of an investment firm with over $17 billion in assets under management working for the benefit of the Funds’ shareholders. The Directors concluded that SIA has substantial resources to provide services to the Funds and that SIA’s services had been acceptable.
Investment Performance. The Directors reviewed and discussed the Funds’ investment performance on an absolute and comparable basis for various periods as discussed below. The Directors noted that the investment performance of the Funds has generally been competitive with indices and other funds with similar investment styles as the Funds, such as equity growth funds.
Corporate Culture. The Directors discussed SIA’s corporate values and commitment to operate under the highest ethical and professional standards. They considered that SIA’s culture is set and practiced by senior management of SIA who insist that all SIA professionals exhibit honesty and integrity. The Directors noted that SIA’s values are evident in the services it provides to the Funds.
Review of Specific Factors. The Directors continued their analysis by reviewing specific information on SIA and the Funds, and the specific terms of the Agreements, including the following:
Investment Performance. The Directors reviewed the investment performance of each Fund for the 3-month, 1-year, and 5-year periods ended September 30, 2024, both on an absolute basis and on a comparative basis to indices and mutual funds within the same investment categories. As noted above, the Directors concluded that the investment performance of the Funds has been competitive in relation to funds with similar objectives and strategies.
Fees and Expenses. The Directors noted that the Funds pay SIA a monthly fee and SIA is responsible for all of the Funds’ expenses, except interest, brokerage commissions, portfolio transaction charges including acquired fund fees and expenses, certain extraordinary expenses, and fees paid under a distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act for Class S shares of Sit Dividend Growth Fund, Sit Global Dividend Growth Fund, Sit Small Cap Dividend Growth Fund, and Sit ESG Growth Fund. The Directors reviewed fees paid in prior years and the current fees to be paid under the Agreements both before and after fee waivers with respect to Sit Balanced Fund, Sit International Growth Fund, Sit Developing Markets Growth Fund, Sit Dividend Growth Fund, Sit Global Dividend Growth Fund, Sit Small Cap Dividend Growth Fund and Sit ESG Growth Fund.
The Directors compared each Fund’s expense ratio to (i) the average and median expense ratios of no-load mutual funds within the same Morningstar, Inc. (“Morningstar”) investment category, (ii) the average expense ratio for load funds within the Fund’s Morningstar category, and (iii) the average expense ratio for all funds within the Fund’s Morningstar category. The Directors also compared each Fund’s management fees to (i) the average and median actual management fees of no-load mutual funds within the same Morningstar investment category, (ii) the average actual management fees for load funds within the Fund’s Morningstar category, and (iii) the average actual management fees for all funds within the Fund’s Morningstar category. Generally, the Funds’ expense ratios were higher than or approximated the averages of the applicable category. The Directors noted that the Morningstar no-load categories include funds of various asset sizes, some of which are significantly larger in assets than the Funds. The Directors also noted that, unlike other funds within each Fund’s Morningstar category, SIA charges a single unified management fee and is responsible for paying all Fund operating expenses. The Directors concluded that the fees paid by the Funds are reasonable and appropriate.
The Directors reviewed the extent to which the fees to be paid under the Agreements by each Fund may be affected by an increase in the Fund’s assets, which included reviewing each Fund’s current and historical assets and the likelihood and magnitude of future increases in the Fund’s assets. The Directors agreed that it is appropriate that the Funds benefit from improved economies of scale as the Funds’ assets increase. However, the Directors concluded that, given the amount of the Funds’ current assets and the likelihood and magnitude of future increases in the Funds’ assets, a graduated fee structure for each Fund was unnecessary at the time because the fees to be paid under the current Agreements were reasonable and appropriate.
The Directors reviewed the expenses paid by SIA relating to the operations of the Funds, and SIA’s income with respect to its management of the Funds for the past two calendar years. The Directors concluded that the expenses paid were appropriate and that SIA’s profit margin with respect to the management of the Funds was acceptable.
The Directors reviewed SIA’s investment advisory fee schedule for investment management services provided to other clients. The Directors compared the services provided to the Funds and other clients of SIA and its affiliates and recognized that the Funds’ expenses are borne by SIA except as noted above. The Directors concluded that the fees paid by the Funds in relation to the fees paid by other clients of SIA and its affiliates were appropriate and reasonable.
The Directors discussed the extent to which SIA receives ancillary benefits from its relationship with the Funds, such as soft dollar arrangements by which brokers provide research services to SIA as a result of brokerage generated by the Funds. The Boards concluded that any benefits SIA receives from its relationship with the Funds are well within industry norms, are reflected in the amount of the fees paid by the Funds to SIA and are appropriate and reasonable.
Non-Advisory Services. The Directors considered the quality of non-advisory services which SIA provides to the Funds (and their shareholders) and the quality and depth of SIA’s non-investment personnel who provide such services. The Directors concluded that the level of such services and the quality and depth of such personnel are acceptable and consistent with industry standards.
Finally, the Directors considered the compliance staff and the regulatory history of SIA and the Funds and concluded that both are acceptable and consistent with industry standards.
Based on these conclusions, without any single conclusion being dispositive, the Directors, including the non-interested Directors by separate vote, determined that renewal of the Agreements was in the interest of each Fund and its shareholders.
