NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

 

THE DAVLIN PHILANTHROPIC FUND

 

 

 

1. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

 

 

 

 

At December 31, 2013, the net unrealized appreciation on investments, based on cost for federal income tax purposes of $6,687,378 amounted to $2,969,935, which consisted of aggregate gross unrealized appreciation of $3,269,747 and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation of $299,812.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. SECURITY VALUATIONS

 

 

 

 

Portfolio securities that are listed on national securities exchanges or the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the last sale price as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, or in the absence of recorded sales, at the readily available closing bid price on such exchanges or such System.   Unlisted securities that are not included in such System are valued at the quoted bid price in the over-the-counter-market.   Securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor under procedures established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Fund's Board of Directors.  Short-term investments are valued at amortized cost, if their original maturity was 60 days or less, or by amortizing the values as of the 61st day prior to maturity, if their original term to maturity exceeded 60 days.

 

As required by the fair value topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The topic also establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability.  The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

 

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

 

Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, 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)

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The following table summarizes the inputs used to value the Fund’s assets measured at fair value as of December 31, 2013:

ITEM 2. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.


      (a)

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. The Registrant maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Registrant's filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Company Act of 1940 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such information is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Registrant's management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, recognizes that any set of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Within 90 days prior to the filing date of this Quarterly Schedule of Portfolio Holdings on Form N-Q, the Registrant had carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Registrant's management, including the Registrant's principal executive officer and the Registrant's principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, the Registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

      (b)

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS. There have been no significant changes in the Registrant's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation in connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Schedule of Portfolio Holdings on Form N-Q.
