CLIPPER FUNDSM
|
•
|
Clipper Fund increased shareholder wealth by 29.6% in 2019 and has compounded at more than 12% per year for the last 10 years.
|
•
|
Over the most recent one-, three-, five- and 10-year periods, a $10,000 investment in the Fund grew to $12,963, $13,286, $16,349, and $31,176 respectively.
|
•
|
The Fund’s holdings can be characterized by three traits: selective, attractive growth, and undervalued. Selective: The Fund has only 27 holdings vs. the S&P 500 Index’s 505
holdings. Attractive Growth: The Fund’s holdings have an EPS Growth (5 years) of 21.0% vs. the S&P 500 Index’s EPS Growth (5 years) of 17.1%. Undervalued: The Fund’s holdings have a P/E (forward) of 17.1x vs. the S&P 500
Index’s P/E (forward) of 20.0x.
|
•
|
Portfolio holdings include select opportunities in durable industrial businesses, dominant Internet platforms that we consider the blue chips of tomorrow, resilient and undervalued
financial companies, and durable businesses under short-term clouds both in the U.S. and internationally.
|
•
|
Selectivity allows us to reject many of today’s most popular and overvalued companies perceived by investors as safe but that may face the prospect of dividend cuts and falling
profits in the years ahead.
|
•
|
As a result, we believe that the Fund is well-positioned to build wealth and outperform its benchmark over the long term.

The companies included in the Standard & Poor’s 500® Index are divided into eleven sectors. One or more industry groups make up a sector. For purposes of
measuring concentration, the Fund generally classifies companies at the industry group or industry level. See the SAI for additional information regarding the Fund’s concentration policy.
|
2
|
A company’s or sector’s contribution to or detraction from the Fund’s performance is a product both of its appreciation or depreciation and its weighting within the
Fund. For example, a 5% holding that rises 20% has twice as much impact as a 1% holding that rises 50%.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures.
The fund Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent accountant relating to the operations or financial reporting of the funds. Prior to the
commencement of any audit or non-audit services to a fund, the Audit Committee reviews the services to determine whether they are appropriate and permissible under applicable law.
The fund Audit Committee has adopted a policy whereby audit and non-audit services performed by the fund independent accountant require pre-approval in advance at regularly scheduled Audit Committee
meetings. If such a service is required between regularly scheduled Audit Committee meetings, pre-approval may be authorized by the Audit Committee Chairperson with ratification at the next scheduled audit committee meeting.
|
(e)(2)
|
No services included in (b) – (d) above were approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
|
(f)
|
Not applicable
|
(g)
|
The Funds’ independent accountant did not provide any services to the investment advisor or any affiliate for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The fund has not paid any
fees for non-audit not previously disclosed in items 4 (b) – (d).
|
(h)
|
The registrant’s audit committee of the board of trustees has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser, and any entity
controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with
maintaining the principal accountant’s independence. No such services were rendered.

1.
|
I have reviewed this report on Form N-CSR of Clipper Funds Trust;
|
2.
|
Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;
|
3.
|
Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects
the financial condition, results of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows (if the financial statements are required to include a statement of cash flows) of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;
|
4.
|
The registrant's other certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rule 30a-3(c) under the Investment Company Act of 1940) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the Investment Company Act of 1940) for the registrant and have:
|
|
(a)
|
Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to
ensure that material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;
|
|
(b)
|
Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our
supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;
|
|
(c)
|
Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of this report based on such evaluation; and
|
|
(d)
|
Disclosed in this report any change in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this
report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting; and
|
|
5.
|
The registrant's other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's board
of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):
|
|
(a)
|
All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably
likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial information; and
|
|
(b)
|
Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's internal control
over financial reporting.
