WHAT WERE THE FUND COSTS FOR THE PAST YEAR? (based on a hypothetical $10,000 investment)

Fund Name	Costs of a $10,000 investment	Costs paid as a percentage of a $10,000 investment
Matrix Advisors Value Fund	$110	0.99%

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?

For the fiscal year (7/1/23-6/30/24), the Matrix Value Fund was up +22.36% versus the S&P 500® Index gain of +24.56% and the Russell 1000® Value gain of +13.03%. For the year, nearly all sectors contributed to the Fund’s strong performance, with the exception of Materials and Health Care. The strongest performing sectors were Consumer Discretionary, Communications Services, Financials and Industrials.

The primary reason the Fund’s performance lagged the S&P 500®’s return over the 12 months was the relative underperformance of its Technology holdings versus the benchmark. The Fund’s Technology holdings were the third-largest contributor to its performance, just not as strong as the benchmark’s. Like last year, the largest Tech companies continued to benefit from the ongoing euphoria about stocks perceived to be beneficiaries of the artificial intelligence wave. MAVFX owned a number of these, but some of the stocks driving that move are highly valued and we would not consider them to be Value stocks. Compared to the Russell Index, however, the Fund outperformed largely because of its higher-weighting in these mega-cap Tech stocks.

Looking forward, we anticipate that the contribution of portfolio results will shift from those sectors that have led performance for the last 18 months to some other sectors. Our Healthcare stocks have solid fundamentals and are at very attractive valuations. Similarly, we think our large positions in Financials has significant additional upside. We are optimistic about the Fund’s positioning and prospects for the balance of 2024 and beyond. The strong fundamentals of our holdings should eventually be reflected in their stock prices.

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM OVER THE PAST 10 YEARS?*

There were no “other services” provided by the principal accountant during the last two fiscal years.

(c) Tax Fees	$2,800	$2,800
(d) All Other Fees	$0	$0

(e)(1) The audit committee has adopted pre-approval policies and procedures that require the audit committee to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services of the registrant, including services provided to any entity affiliated with the registrant.

(e)(2) The percentage of fees billed by Tait, Weller & Baker LLP, the registrant’s principal accountant, applicable to non-audit services pursuant to waiver of pre-approval requirement for each of the last two fiscal years were as follows:

	FYE  6/30/2024	FYE  6/30/2023
Audit-Related Fees	0%	0%
Tax Fees	0%	0%

(g) The following table indicates the non-audit fees billed or expected to be billed by the registrant’s accountant for services to the registrant and rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant for each of the last two fiscal years on behalf of the Fund.

Matrix Advisors Value Fund, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 2024

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

Matrix Advisors Value Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) as a diversified, open-end management investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies”. The Fund commenced operations September 16, 1983. The Fund’s investment objective is to achieve a total rate of return which is comprised of capital appreciation and current income.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Fund consistently follows the accounting policies set forth below which are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

A.
Security Valuation. Securities traded on a national securities exchange, except those listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market, LLC (“NASDAQ”), are valued at the last reported sales price at the close of regular trading on each day the exchanges are open for trading (generally 4:00 p.m, Eastern time). Securities traded on NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price. Quotations of foreign securities, currencies and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar, as provided by on independent pricing service or reporting agency. Foreign currency exchange rates generally are valued at the last sale price at the close on an exchange on which the security is primarily traded. Securities traded on an exchange for which there have been no sales are valued at the mean between the last reported bid and the asked quotes, or the last sale price when appropriate.

Securities for which quotations are not readily available are stated at their respective fair values as determined in good faith by Matrix Asset Advisors, Inc. (the “Advisor” or “Matrix”), the Fund’s investment advisor and valuation designee, in accordance with procedures approved by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Fund under Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act. In determining fair value, the Fund takes into account all relevant factors and available information. Consequently, the price of the security used by the Fund to calculate its net asset value (“NAV”) per share may differ from quoted or published prices for the same security. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and there is no single standard for determining a security’s fair value. As a result, different mutual funds could reasonably arrive at a different fair value for the same security. It is possible that the fair value determined for a security is materially different from the value that could be realized upon the sale of that security or from the values that other mutual funds may determine.

Investments in other funds are valued at their respective NAVs as determined by those funds for purchase and/or redemption orders placed on that day, in accordance with the 1940 Act.

Foreign securities are recorded in the financial statements after translation to U.S. dollars based on the applicable exchange rate at the end of the period. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the currency exchange rate from the fluctuations arising as a result of changes in the market prices of investments during the period.

B.
Shares Valuation. The NAV per share of the Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses), by the total number of shares outstanding of the Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. The Fund’s shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is closed for trading. The offering and redemption price per share of the Fund is equal to the Fund’s NAV per share.

C.
Federal Income Taxes. The Fund has elected to be treated as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and any capital gains less any applicable capital loss carryforwards. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax

positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years (2021 – 2023), or expected to be taken in the Fund’s 2024 tax returns. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U. S. Federal, New York State and New York City. The Fund is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.

D.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 these estimates.

E.
Security Transactions, Investment Income, and Distributions. Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The Fund will distribute net investment income and net capital gains, if any, at least annually. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses are evaluated on the basis of identified costs. Premiums and discounts on the purchase of securities are amortized/accreted using the effective interest method. U.S. GAAP requires that permanent financial reporting and tax differences be reclassified in the capital accounts.

F.
Indemnification Obligations. Under the Fund’s organizational documents, its current and former Officers and Directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred or that would be covered by other parties.

G.
Subsequent Events. The Fund has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of the Fund’s financial statements and has determined that no events have occurred that require disclosure in these financial statements.

NOTE 3 – INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

The Fund has an investment advisory agreement with the Advisor to serve as investment advisor. Certain officers of the Advisor are also officers of the Fund. Under the terms of the agreement, the Fund has agreed to pay the Advisor as compensation for all services rendered, staff and facilities provided and expenses paid or assumed, an annual advisory fee, accrued daily, paid monthly, of 0.75% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund accrued $449,158 in advisory fees.

The Advisor has contractually agreed to reduce its advisory fees and/or pay expenses of the Fund through at least October 31, 2024, to ensure that the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding front-end or contingent deferred loads, acquired fund fees and expenses, leverage interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization, and extraordinary expenses such as litigation) will not exceed 0.99% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. In connection with this expense limitation, the Advisor is entitled to recoup fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed within a three-year period from the date of the waiver or expense payment if such reimbursement will not cause the Fund’s expense ratio to exceed the lesser of: (i) the expense limitation in effect at the time of the waiver and/or the expense payment or (ii) the expense limitation in place at the time of recoupment. This arrangement can be terminated only by, or with the consent of, the Board upon 60 days’ written notice to the Advisor.

Any such reimbursement will be reviewed by the Fund’s Board. The Fund must pay its current ordinary operating expenses before the Advisor is entitled to any reimbursement of fees and/or expenses.

NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE

The Fund has adopted fair valuation accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set forth a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosure about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion of changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period. These standards define fair value as the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy is organized into three levels based upon the assumptions (referred to as “inputs”) used to value the asset or liability. These standards state that “observable inputs” reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources. “Unobservable inputs” reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use to value the asset or liability.

The Fund follows a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and the Fund’s own market assumptions (unobservable inputs). These inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments and are summarized in the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 – 

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the company has the ability to access.

Level 2 – 

Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayments speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.

Level 3 – 

Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the company’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

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

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund’s net assets as of June 30, 2024.

			Level 1			Level 2			Level 3			Total
Equity
Common Stocks*			$60,809,293			$   —			$   —			$60,809,293
Total Equity			$60,809,293			$—			$—			$60,809,293

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and

Shareholders of Matrix Advisors Value Fund, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Matrix Advisors Value Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”), including the schedule of investments, as of June 30, 2024, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of June 30, 2024, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We have served as the Fund’s auditor since 1999.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2024 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
