PEAR TREE FUNDS

FUND EXPENSES

We believe it’s important for Fund shareholders to have a clear understanding of fund expenses and the impact expenses have on investment returns. The following is important information about each Fund’s Expense Example, which appears below.

Expense Example

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (on Ordinary Shares) and other Fund expenses. The example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Actual Expenses

The first line for each Share Class for each Fund provides information about actual account returns and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested for that Fund and Share Class, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To estimate the expenses you paid over the period, simply divide your account value by $1,000, then multiply the result by the number under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Period.”

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line for each Share Class for each Fund shows you hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return.

The hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information only to compare the ongoing expenses of investing in the Fund with the ongoing expenses of other funds. To do so, compare the Fund’s 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

Investment Commentary

(prepared by Polaris Capital Management, LLC, sub-adviser to Pear Tree Polaris Small Cap Fund)

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, Pear Tree Polaris Small Cap Fund’s Ordinary Shares (the “Fund”) underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index (the “Index”). The Fund had a return of 2.75% at net asset value compared to 11.79% for the Index.

Market Conditions and Investment Strategies

The Fund’s underperformance was partially driven by the major disparity between growth and value during the fiscal year period. The Russell 2000 Growth Index was up 18.63%, while the Value Index only reached 5.13% for the one year period ended 3.31.18. Historically, periods of such dispersion are unsustainable. On a positive note, nearly one third of portfolio holdings had double-digit returns for the year. Coating and pigments company, Ferro Corporation, gained more than 50% on strong organic growth and margin expansion. Deckers Outdoor Corporation. had strong returns after defeating a proxy vote by an activist investor. Deckers, the maker of UGG boots and Teva sandals, had relatively flat sales, but improved profitability on the back of aggressive cost restructuring. Animal feed company, Phibro Animal Health Corporation., announced solid sales in its nutritional specialty and vaccine businesses. Bel Fuse Inc. disappointed with lackluster returns in its power module business; however, bookings and backlog improved. Entravision Communications Corporation, a media company focused on the U.S. Hispanic market and Mexico consumers, encountered difficult business conditions, guiding for modest single-digit sales decreases in TV and radio in 2018 Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. declined, likely due to profit taking after reporting weaker sales demand. The stock price rose markedly in mid-2017. Natus Medical Inc. had lower earnings, due to weakness within its neuro-diagnostic business as well as higher capital expenditures related to its new 3D ear scanning tool for audiologists. Higher interest rates did not bode well for interest-rate sensitive real estate investment trusts, including portfolio holding EPR Properties.

Portfolio Changes

Acquisitions were at the core of portfolio change. Dupont Fabros Technology was taken over by Digital Realty Trust, Inc. Swift Transportation was acquired by Knight Transportation. BNC Bancorp was bought out by Pinnacle Financial Partners, both of which were in the Fund portfolio. Lab product distributor, VWR Corporation, received an attractive offer from a private equity firm. Regal Entertainment Group was acquired by U.K.-based theater group Cineworld. The Fund capitalized on the healthy premiums exacted in each of these transactions, while securing stock in the acquirer companies (with the exception of VWR and Cineworld). RH (previously Restoration Hardware) was sold when it reached the target valuation. The Fund exited ATM processor Cardtronics, National CineMedia, Spirit Airlines and Select Income REIT due to fading industry fundamentals. Cash from sales was redeployed to purchase Dril-Quip Inc., a provider of tools for the offshore energy industry; check business Deluxe Corporation.; tech distribution business, Insight Enterprises, Inc.; gypsum wall board producer, Continental Building Products; and electronic components manufacturer, Avnet Inc.

A Look Ahead

In a heated U.S. small cap market, finding undervalued companies becomes more challenging. However, we have identified a few select opportunities for which we are conducting further due diligence. As always, the goal is to improve the valuation and risk profile of the Fund and expect that such efforts will result in improved performance in the future.

The Russell 2000 Index is a market capitalization-weighted index of 2,000 small company stocks. It is widely recognized as representative of the general market for small company stocks.

Small company stocks may trade less frequently and in a limited volume, and their prices may fluctuate more than stocks of other companies. Small company stocks may therefore be more vulnerable to adverse developments than those of larger companies. The Fund may invest in issuers in the real estate industry. Changes in real estate values or economic downturns can have a significant negative effect on these issuers. The Fund may invest in foreign issuers that trade on U.S. stock exchanges. These issuers may be subject to special risks including different corporate governance rules and bankruptcy laws.

The Fund is non-diversified, meaning it may concentrate its assets in fewer individual holdings than a diversified fund. Therefore, the Fund is more exposed to individual stock volatility than diversified funds. As a result, a decline in the value of the securities of one issuer could have a significant negative effect on the Fund. The Fund may have significant investments in one or more specific industry sectors, subjecting it to risks greater than general market risk. For example, adverse news from just one or two companies in a particular industry can hurt the prices of all stocks in that industry.

Investment Commentary

(prepared by Pear Tree Advisors, Inc., the Investment Manger to Pear Tree Quality Fund)

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, the Pear Tree Quality Fund's Ordinary Shares (the "Fund") outperformed its benchmark, S&P 500 (the “Index"). The Fund achieved a return of 14.91% at net asset value compared to 13.99% for the Index.

Market Conditions and Investment Strategies

The Fund’s investment manager currently chooses securities for the Fund by periodically selecting a mutual fund (the “Target Portfolio”) and monitoring the Target Portfolio’s holdings. The Fund’s investment adviser, at the direction of the investment manager, rebalances the Fund’s portfolio to correspond to the Target Portfolio’s most recent holdings as publicly reported. From April 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018, the Fund’s Ordinary Shares, when compared to the Target Portfolio, had a tracking error of 0.26.

Over the previous twelve months, the Healthcare sector was the largest positive contributor to the Fund’s performance mainly due to stock selection. The Energy, Industrials, Information Technology, Real Estate, Telecommunication Services and Utilities sectors also contributed to performance.

The largest detractor from performance came from the Consumer Staples sector where a large overweight position in the sector negatively affected relative performance. Other large detractors were an underweight position in the Financial sector and stock selection in the Information Technology sector.

Portfolio Changes

We expect the Fund to have a relatively low turnover rate given the historical stability and relatively low turnover rate of the current Target Portfolio.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, the Fund rebalanced the holdings four times in response to the quarterly holdings report filed by the Target Portfolio. The four rebalances resulted in the sale of 14 positions. The Fund also opened new positions in three companies; one Health Care company and two Financial companies.

A Look Ahead

For the foreseeable future, the Fund’s investment manager expects the Target Portfolio to remain the same. For more information on the selection of the Target Portfolio(s), please see the Fund’s Prospectus.

Investment Commentary

(prepared by Polaris Capital Management, LLC, subadviser to Pear Tree Polaris Foreign Value Fund)

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, the Pear Tree Polaris Foreign Value Fund’s Ordinary Shares (the “Fund”) underperformed its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index (the “Index”). The Fund had a return of 14.27% at net asset value compared to 15.32% for the Index.

Market Conditions and Investment Strategies

Cyclical sectors, namely Consumer Discretionary, Materials, Financials and Industrials, led performance, while defensive names in Health Care, Telecom, Utilities and Consumer Staples detracted.

More than half of the portfolio stocks had double-digit gains for the year. One notable contributor was Nexon Co., Limited, which posted its highest-ever quarterly sales, leading to good year-end results. The Japanese video game company upped its sales and operating profit forecast for 2018. Elsewhere in Information Technology, Samsung Electronics had multiple quarters of double-digit gains, driven by strong semiconductor sales and positive buzz surrounding the launch of the Galaxy S8. Mixi, Inc dropped after reporting declining net sales and operating income, with fewer growth drivers in play.

In Materials, Canada’s Methanex Corporation gained more than 30% during the period as methanol prices rose when a large Chinese methanol-to-olefin plant resumed operations and purchases of methanol. BHP Billiton Plc announced plans to divest its onshore shale business and sought a buyer for its Australian nickel business. The strategic plans were well received by the market.

United Overseas Bank posted impressive results, as the regional recovery in Southeast Asia economies boosted demand for customer loans and other banking services. SpareBank 1 SR-Bank ASA benefitted from a revival of Norwegian loan growth and an uptick on lending margins.

Within Consumer Staples, gains by Japanese brewer, Asahi Group Holdings Limited were offset by losses at Irish convenience food producer, Greencore Group plc. Greencore declined after the company raised concerns about U.S. market penetration and underutilized facilities.

Teva Pharmaceuticals SP, the Israeli drug company, faced mounting pricing pressure in the U.S. generics market during the period. The resultant lower cash flow, and high debt from the Allergan acquisition, forced the company to cut its dividend and plan asset sales to alleviate capital requirements. Italian foundation engineering and oil rig manufacturer, Trevi Finanziaria SpA, tumbled after it submitted a request to its main financing banks, calling for a standstill agreement in order to restructure its oil drilling division.

Portfolio Changes

During the fiscal year, the Fund exited two U.K. homebuilders (Persimmon and Barratt Developments), Konecranes, Showa Denko and Thai Oil, all of which reached target valuation levels. Christian Dior was sold at a profit after it became an acquisition target by LVMH. The Fund also eliminated positions in YIT, Caverion and International Game Technology. Cash was redeployed to buy several Asian companies, including Japanese computer and mobile game developers; Japan’s Kansai Electric Power Company Inc.; and South Korean stocks, SK Hynix Inc., LG Uplus Corporation and Hyundai Mobis Company, Limited. The Fund also invested in three U.K companies including Next plc, Babcock International Group plc and Cineworld Group,plc; one Canadian automotive supplier; and Bancolombia S.A. the largest Colombian bank.

Investment Commentary

(prepared by Polaris Capital Management, LLC, subadviser to Pear Tree Polaris Foreign Value Small Cap Fund)

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, the Pear Tree Polaris Foreign Value Small Cap Fund’s Ordinary Shares (the “Fund”) underperformed its benchmark, the MSCI ACWI ex USA Small Cap Index (the “Index”). The Fund had a return of 17.15% at net asset value compared to 21.03% for the Index.

Market Conditions and Investment Strategies

The Fund posted absolute positive returns in nine sectors, with only Consumer Staples and Materials detracting. Greatest contributions came from the Information Technology sector. Supply-demand metrics favored Yageo Corporation, as it raised prices on its capacitors and transistors. Taiwan Union Technology Corporation noted healthy sales of its mass lamination services and copper clad laminates. NIIT Technologies Limited recorded excellent results and won large deals in the insurance and transportation space. Hana Microelectronics PCL detracted, as an appreciating Thai Baht impacted the company’s USD-reported revenue. Thailand also announced plans to boost the national minimum wage.

SIXT SE had triple-digit gains for the year, after announcing robust earnings attributable to increased auto rental business in Germany, Spain, France and the U.S. Netherlands architect engineering firm Arcadis NV produced encouraging results and offered an upbeat outlook for the business. Results in the Industrial sector were somewhat muted by underperformers, Carrillion plc and Galliford Try plc. We sold British facilities and construction services firm, Carillion plc, on concerns about mismanagement and recent write-downs on contracts. Galliford Try suffered two strategic setbacks, walking away from its pursuit of Bovis Homes and allocating an additional $50+ million to the Aberdeen road project due to the collapse of one of the joint venture partners.

Japanese rice-cooker & vacuum flask manufacturer Zojirushi Corporation, rose during the period after a sell-side analyst issued a buy recommendation citing better industry conditions and good overseas markets. JD Weatherspoon plc announced improved like-for-like sales, lower utility and interest costs, and the sale of lower margin pubs. The strategic moves were well received, with the stock rising more than 30 percent. Consumer Discretionary gains were somewhat mitigated by losses at Hong Kong textile manufacturer Texwinca Holdings Limited plc, which declined due to lesser demand and higher cotton prices.

The most notable detractor was Conviviality, the U.K.-based wine and spirit retailer. Credit insurers of the company withdrew their support after Conviviality came up with profit warnings and short-term liquidity issues. The company tried to raise capital without success after which it filed for administration.

Portfolio Changes

During the year, the Fund sold companies as they reached target valuations including Thai Union Group PCL, Bonduelle S.C.A. and Prima Meat Packers Limited. Others were sold at a healthy profit on acquisition news, including Spotless Group Holdings Limited and Programmed Maintenance Services Limited. A few were exited due to changing business dynamics or management concerns, including Carillion plc and Semperit AG Holding. Cash was reallocated to a number of Norwegian banks and a ferry service; Japan’s Zojirushi Corporation., Kanematsu Corporation., and Dowa Holdings Co. Limited; Korean housewares and electronics retailers; Taiwan’s fabless IC design company, Sitronix Technology Corporation, a small regional bank; and U.K. theater operator, Cineworld Group plc.

A Look Ahead

Global macro-economic conditions appear promising, as evidenced by supply-demand metrics and sales trends. Many of the companies with which we meet are reporting favorable business dynamics, especially in the Technology sector. We continue to find many undervalued small-cap companies in Asia, and we expect to add opportunistically to the portfolio.

PEAR TREE FUNDS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization of the Trust

Pear Tree Funds, (the “Trust”) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust currently has five series (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”), each with its own investment objective and strategy. A sixth series of the Trust, Pear Tree PanAgora Risk Parity Emerging Markets Fund, was reorganized and merged into Pear Tree PanAgora Emerging Markets Fund in May 2018. See Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies-Subsequent Events-Reorganization of Pear Tree PanAgora Risk Parity Emerging Markets Fund,” below.

Pear Tree Polaris Small Cap Fund (“Small Cap”) seeks maximum long-term capital appreciation.

Pear Tree Quality Fund (“Quality”) seeks long-term growth of capital.

Pear Tree PanAgora Emerging Markets Fund (“Emerging Markets”) seeks long-term growth of capital.

Pear Tree Polaris Foreign Value Fund (“Foreign Value”) seeks long-term capital growth and income.

Pear Tree Polaris Foreign Value Small Cap Fund (“Foreign Value Small Cap”) seeks long-term capital growth and income.

Each of the Funds is a “non-diversified company,” within the meaning of the 1940 Act, other than Emerging Markets, which is a “diversified company.”

As the Trust is an investment company, each Fund accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services-Investment Companies”.

The Trustees of the Trust (the "Trustees”) have authorized each Fund to issue three classes of shares, designated as Ordinary Shares, Institutional Shares and R6 Shares. During the period covered by these financial statements, each Fund offered Ordinary Shares and Institutional Shares. Beginning February 6, 2017, each of Foreign Value and Foreign Value Small Cap also offered R6 Shares. The three classes differ principally in their respective expense structures and minimum investment requirements. Each class of shares of a Fund represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments of that Fund and has equal rights to voting (except as noted in the following sentence), redemptions, dividends and liquidation. Ordinary Shares bear distribution (Rule 12b-1) fees and have exclusive voting rights with respect to the distribution plan that has been adopted by Ordinary Share shareholders pursuant to Rule 12b-1. There is no 12b-1 distribution plan applicable to Institutional Shares or R6 shares of any Fund.

At times, a Fund’s investments may include investments in industries or industry sectors that are interrelated or have common risks, making the Fund more susceptible to any economic, political, or regulatory developments or other risks affecting those industries and sectors. To the extent that a Fund is permitted to invest in foreign markets, especially emerging markets or countries with limited or developing markets, such investments may subject the Fund to a greater degree of risk than in the U.S. market or a developed market. Risks associated with these foreign and developing markets include political, social or economic factors and may affect the price of a Fund’s investments and income generated by these investments, as well as a Fund’s ability to repatriate such amounts. Information regarding each Fund’s principal investment risks is contained in the Funds’ prospectus. Please refer to the Funds’ prospectus when considering a Fund’s investment risks.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements, which are consistent with those policies generally accepted in the investment company industry.

Security Valuation

Portfolio securities are valued each business day generally at the last reported sale price on the principal exchange or market on which they are traded. If on a business day there is no such reported sale, the

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PEAR TREE FUNDS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

securities generally are valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices. For securities where no such sales have been reported, a Fund may value such securities at the last reported bid price. In the event that there is information suggesting that valuation of such securities based upon bid and/or asked prices may not be accurate, a Fund may value such securities in good faith at fair value in accordance with procedures (the “Valuation Procedures”) established by the Trustees, which may include a determination to value such securities at the last reported sales price. Short-term investments that mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost. Securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon the prevailing exchange rate at the time of valuation. As a result, changes in the value of those currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar may affect a Fund’s net asset value. Because foreign markets may be open at different times than when the New York Stock Exchange is open for regular trading, the value of a Fund’s shares may change on days when Fund shareholders are not able to buy or sell them. If events materially affecting the values of a Fund’s foreign investments occur between the close of foreign markets and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, these investments may be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith using the Valuation Procedures.

The Funds’ Valuation Procedures include fair valuation accounting standards that 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 used to develop the measurements of fair value. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

•

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a Fund 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, prepayment 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 a Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset liability, and would be based on the best information available.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of the markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in changing an investment’s assigned level within the hierarchy.

Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

The Funds have adopted financial reporting rules regarding offsetting assets and liabilities and related arrangements to enable users of their financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on their financial position. During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Funds were not subject to any master netting arrangements or similar agreements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Guarantees and Indemnifications

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as, among other things, this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss with respect to these arrangements to be minimal.

Subsequent Events

In preparing these financial statements, the Funds evaluated subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financials were issued. Except as provided below, there were no events or transactions that occurred through the date the financials were issued that materially impacted the accounts or disclosures in the Funds’ financial statements.

Reorganization of Pear Tree PanAgora Risk Parity Emerging Markets Fund. On May 9, 2018, Pear Tree PanAgora Emerging Markets Fund, a series of the Trust (“Emerging Markets Fund”), acquired all of the net assets of Pear Tree PanAgora Risk Parity Emerging Markets Fund, another series of the Trust (“Risk Parity Fund”), pursuant to an agreement and plan of reorganization (the “Plan of Reorganization”). The Plan of Reorganization was approved by the Trustees of the Trust on February 8, 2018 for Risk Parity Fund and Emerging Markets Fund as parties to the transactions contemplated by the Plan of Reorganization (collectively, the “Reorganization”), and separately for Emerging Markets Fund as the holder of more

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

than 90 percent of Risk Parity Fund’s outstanding voting shares. The other Risk Parity Fund shareholders were not asked to vote on or approve the Plan of Reorganization, and their vote or approval was not required to effect the Reorganization as proposed. The purpose of the Reorganization was to combine two funds managed by the same investment sub-adviser with comparable investment objectives and strategies.

The Reorganization was accomplished by the exchange of all of the assets of Risk Parity Fund and the assumption by Emerging Markets Fund of all liabilities of Risk Parity Fund, and then the liquidation of Risk Parity Fund. Risk Parity Fund shareholders (other than Emerging Markets Fund), which as of the time of the Reorganization held Risk Parity Fund shares representing approximately 2.8 percent of Risk Parity Fund’s net assets, or $1,709,958, received shares of Emerging Markets Fund having an aggregate value of $1,709,958. Immediately prior to the Reorganization, the net assets of Emerging Markets Fund were $114,570,815.

The Reorganization was intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a tax-free liquidation as to Emerging Markets Fund in its capacity as a shareholder of Risk Parity Fund, and a tax-free reorganization as to all other shareholders of Risk Parity Fund. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by Emerging Markets Fund were recorded at fair value. For federal income tax purposes, the cost basis of the assets received from Risk Parity Fund was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of Emerging Markets Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders.

Change of Sub-Adviser for Pear Tree Quality Fund. On February 8, 2018, the Trustees of the Trust voted to temporarily appoint Chartwell Investment Partners, LLC (“Chartwell”) to serve as the sub-adviser to Quality Fund, as well as to approve a new sub-advisory agreement between Chartwell and the Manager. The Trustees were required to consider taking such action because Columbia Partners, L.L.C. - Investment Management (“Columbia”), at the time the sub-adviser to Quality Fund, had entered into an agreement to merge with Chartwell, which upon consummation of the merger would have caused Columbia’s sub-advisory agreement relating to Quality Fund to terminate. The terms and conditions of the Chartwell sub-advisory agreement regarding Quality Fund, including sub-advisory fees, were substantially similar to the terms and conditions of the Columbia sub-advisory agreement that it was replacing. The merger occurred on or about March 31, 2018. The Trustees’ appointment of Chartwell and approval of the sub-advisory agreement between Chartwell and the Manager were subject to reconsideration at the Trustees’ May 2018 regularly scheduled meeting. At the Trustees’ May 16, 2018 meeting, they reapproved the appointment of Chartwell as the Quality Fund sub-adviser, as well as the sub-advisory agreement between the Manager and Chartwell.

At the Trustees’ direction, officers of the Trust are in the process of preparing an Information Statement to be sent to Quality Fund shareholders in lieu of conducting a shareholder vote to approve the new sub-advisory agreement.

Security Transactions and Related Investment Income

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date (i.e., the date the order to buy or sell is executed, which may or may not be the settlement date). Dividend income, less foreign taxes withheld, is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are recorded as soon as a Fund becomes aware of the ex-dividend data in the exercise of reasonable diligence. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or a capital gain is recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Each Fund estimates the components of distributions that may be considered nontaxable distributions or capital gain distributions for tax purposes. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. In determining the net gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of securities is determined on the identified cost basis. Each Fund’s investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated among classes based upon the daily relative net assets.

PEAR TREE FUNDS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

When a Fund participates in a reverse repurchase transaction, the Funds’ custodian takes possession through the federal book-entry system of those securities of the counterparty collateralizing the counterparty’s obligation under the reverse repurchase transaction. Collateral is marked-to-market daily to confirm that the market value of the underlying assets remains sufficient to cover the counterparty’s obligation to the participating Fund. The participating Fund may experience costs and delays in liquidating the collateral if the counterparty or the issuer of the collateral defaults or enters into bankruptcy.

Counterparty Credit Risk

Some transactions in which a Fund may engage involve instruments that are not traded on an exchange. Rather, these instruments are traded between counterparties based on contractual relationships. As a result, the Fund is subject to the risk that the counterparty will not perform obligations under the related contract. Although the Fund expects to enter into transactions only with counterparties believed by the Fund’s investment manager or sub-adviser to be creditworthy, there can be no assurance that a counterparty will not default and that the Fund will not sustain a loss on a transaction as a result.

The purchase of participatory notes involves risk that is in addition to the risks normally associated with a direct investment in the underlying securities. A Fund holding a participatory note is subject to the risk that the issuer of the participatory note (i.e., the issuing bank or broker-dealer), which is the only responsible party under the note, is unable or refuses to perform under the terms of the participatory note.

Foreign Currency Transactions

All monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the prevailing exchange rate at the time of valuation. Income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the prevailing rates of exchange when accrued or incurred.

Reported net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and losses from currency gains and losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on investment transactions, and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts

Certain Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to manage their exposure to fluctuations in certain foreign currencies. A forward currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a set price. The forward currency contracts are valued at the forward rate and are marked-to-market daily. The change in market value is recorded by a Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it is opened and the value at the time it is closed. In addition to the risks of financial investments mentioned above, risks arise from unanticipated movements in currency values.

Spot Foreign Currency Contracts

A Fund may also engage in a spot transaction, which is an immediate method for converting one currency into another. Specifically, a spot foreign currency contract is an obligation to buy or sell a specified amount of foreign currency at the prevailing exchange rate for immediate delivery. Generally, these transactions effect a physical exchange of two underlying currencies that are processed on “the spot” with immediate settlement on the spot date, which is generally T + 2. Although these transactions are

instantaneous and may mitigate unwanted foreign exchange exposure, they are subject to movements in the spot exchange rate (i.e., the prevailing exchange rate at the time of the transaction), which can be unpredictable.

Securities Lending

To generate additional income, each of Small Cap, Quality and Emerging Markets lend its securities to institutional investors using Securities Finance Trust Company (“eSecLending”) as its lending agent. Small Cap, Quality and Emerging Markets may each lend up to 30 percent of its assets pursuant to certain agreements (“Securities Lending Agreements”) requiring that the loan be continuously secured. Securities loaned are arranged by eSecLending with certain pre-approved borrowers, typically broker-dealers acting on behalf of institutional clients. The borrowers are required to provide cash or securities as collateral against loaned securities in the amount of 105 percent of the market value of borrowings for loans of non-U.S. equities and non-U.S. fixed income securities, and 102 percent of the borrowings for loans of U.S. equities and U.S. fixed income securities. Collateral is marked-to-market daily. Cash collateral is invested in a registered money market fund.

Risks, such as delay in recovery of lent securities, may occur should the borrower of the securities fail financially or should the value of the securities loaned increase above the value of the collateral received. eSecLending provides indemnification insurance via highly rated third party insurers to cover these potential risks.

Emerging Markets			1,357,044			1,289,346

Allocations of Trust Expenses

Trust expenses attributable to a specific Fund are allocated to that Fund. Trust expenses that are not attributed to a specific Fund are allocated among all Funds in proportion to the respective net assets of the Funds.

A Fund’s expenses allocable to a specific class of shares of that Fund, such as distribution (12b-1) fees and certain transfer agent fees, are allocated to that class. Fund expenses that are not attributable to a specific class, which includes management fees, custody expenses, and most other regular expenses, are allocated to all classes in proportion to the respective net assets of the Fund’s classes. (See Note 3.)

Income, and realized and unrealized gains and losses are calculated at the Fund level and allocated daily to each class of shares based on their respective percentage of adjusted net assets at the beginning of the day. (See Note 3.)

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions to shareholders are recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions paid by each Fund with respect to each class of shares are calculated in the same manner, at the same time, and in the same amount, except that Ordinary Shares incur distribution (12b-1) fees while Institutional Shares and R6 Shares do not. Distributions from net investment income for each Fund, if any, are declared and paid annually. Distributions from net realized gains for each Fund, if any, are generally declared and paid annually.

3. Management Fee, Advisory Fees and Other Affiliate Transactions

Management Fees

The Trust has entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Pear Tree Advisors, Inc. (the “Manager”) with respect to each Fund. Compensation of the Manager, for management and administration of the Funds, including selection and monitoring of investment sub-advisers, is paid monthly based on the average daily net asset value of each Fund for the month. The annual stated contractual rate of such fees is 1.00 percent of the average daily total net assets of each of the Funds, except for Small Cap, for which there is an annual rate of 0.80 percent of the average daily total net assets, respectively.

For the period of March 31, 2017 through July 31, 2018, with respect to Foreign Value and Foreign Value Small Cap, the Manager has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee that it would otherwise receive under the Management Agreement such that the actual aggregate management fee that the Manager would receive during the waiver period for serving as the investment manager of each such Fund would be calculated using an annual rate of 0.90 percent of that Fund’s Net Assets, as such term is defined in the Management Agreement. Prior to July 31, 2018, this arrangement only may be terminated by the Trustees in their sole discretion.

From January 27, 2011 to July 31, 2013, the Manager had waived a portion of its management fee relating to Quality Fund by an amount equal to the annualized rate of 0.15 percent of Quality Fund’s average daily net assets if and when the Quality Fund’s average daily net assets were up to $100 million, and in an amount equal to the annualized rate of 0.25 percent of Quality Fund’s average daily net assets if and when Quality Fund’s average daily net assets equal to or greater than $100 million. From April 1, 2011 to

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PEAR TREE FUNDS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

August 1, 2013, the Manager had waived or reimbursed Fund expenses relating to Institutional Shares of Quality Fund such that the total annualized fund operating expenses relating to Institutional Shares were not more than 1.00 percent.

Beginning December 1, 2013, the Manager has agreed until July 31, 2018 to waive a portion of its management fee relating to Quality Fund such that the aggregate management fee to be received by the Manager during the waiver period would be determined using (a) an annual rate of 0.75 percent of Quality Fund’s average daily net assets if the Quality Fund’s average daily net assets are up to and including $125 million, and (b) thereafter, an annual rate of 0.50 percent of Quality Fund’s average daily net assets for amounts in excess of $125 million. Prior to July 31, 2018, this arrangement only may be terminated by the Trustees in their sole discretion.

During the period covered by these financial statements, Emerging Markets invested a portion of its assets in Pear Tree PanAgora Risk Parity Emerging Markets Fund, a separate series of the Trust (“Risk Parity”). The Manager and the Sub-Adviser each had agreed, for so long as Emerging Markets invested a portion of its assets in Risk Parity, to waive its management fees or sub-advisory fees, as the case may be, that it would otherwise receive from or with respect to its management of Emerging Markets portfolio.

Beginning March 18, 2016, the Manager contractually agreed until July 31, 2018 to waive such portion of the management fees that it would otherwise receive under its agreement with Pear Tree Funds for serving as investment manager to Emerging Markets Fund, such that the aggregate management fee that the Manager would receive during the waiver period for serving as the investment manager of Emerging Markets Fund would be calculated using (a) an annual rate of 0.78 percent if Emerging Markets Fund’s net assets are up to $300 million, (b) an annual rate of 0.83 percent if Emerging Markets Fund’s net assets are between $300 million and $600 million, and (c) an annual rate of 0.88 percent if Emerging Markets Fund’s net assets are in excess of $600 million. Prior to July 31, 2018, this arrangement only may be terminated by the Trustees in their sole discretion.

In addition, under the Management Agreement, the Manager has agreed to reduce its compensation, and if necessary, assume expenses, with respect to Small Cap Fund to the extent that the total expenses of Small Cap Fund individually exceed 2 percent of average net assets for any fiscal year. Small Cap Fund expenses subject to this limitation are exclusive of brokerage, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, which include incremental custody costs associated with international securities. Expenses are calculated gross of custody credits, if applicable.

For the year ended March 31, 2018, aggregate management fees exclusive of fee waivers and Fund reimbursements, from all Funds were $31,795,313.

Sub-Advisory Fees

The Manager has entered into sub-advisory contracts with the following sub-advisers (collectively the “Sub-Advisers”) to provide investment sub-advisory services to the following Funds: Chartwell Investment Partners, LLC (Quality), PanAgora Asset Management, Inc. (Emerging Markets), and Polaris Capital Management, LLC (Small Cap, Foreign Value, and Foreign Value Small Cap).

For services rendered, the Manager pays to the Sub-Advisers of a Fund a fee based on a percentage of the average daily total net assets of the Fund. The fee for each Fund is determined separately. During the year ended March 31, 2018, the fees paid by the Manager to the Sub-Advisers of the Funds were as follows:

Small Cap

0.25% of the first $100 million and

0.30% of amounts in excess of $100 million but less than

Distribution Fees, including Fees under 12b-1 Plans

The Funds have entered into a distribution agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) with U.S. Boston Capital Corporation (the “Distributor”). For its services under the Distribution Agreement, the Distributor receives the distribution (12b-1) fees, that is, 0.25 percent of the average daily net asset value of the Ordinary Shares of the Funds, payable monthly.

Holders of Institutional Shares and R6 Shares pay no portion of the 12b-1 Plan expenses of the Funds applicable to Ordinary Shares, and neither Institutional Shares nor R6 Shares are subject to any other distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1. Holders of Institutional Shares and R6 Shares also are not entitled to vote on matters involving the 12b-1 Plan applicable to Ordinary Shares. During the year ended March 31, 2018, the aggregate 12b-1 distribution fees of the Funds were $3,898,185.

Transfer Agent Fees

Transfer agent functions are provided to the Funds by Pear Tree Institutional Services, a division of the Manager (the “Transfer Agent”), pursuant to a transfer agent agreement (the “Transfer Agent Agreement”). The Transfer Agent Agreement, provides for with respect to Ordinary Shares and Institutional Shares, base fees, that are payable to the Transfer Agent at an annual rate of 0.16 percent of the average daily total net asset value of each such class, and with respect to R6 Shares, base fees payable at an annual rate of 0.01 percent of the average daily total net asset value of R6 Shares. The Transfer Agent also is entitled to reimbursement of out of pocket expenses. As of March 31, 2017 through July 31, 2018, the Transfer Agent has contractually agreed to waive such portion of the base fees that it would otherwise receive for serving as the transfer agent such that the aggregate transfer agent fee with respect to Institutional Shares of each of Small Cap, Foreign Value and Foreign Value Small Cap would be calculated using an annual rate of 0.04 percent of that Fund’s net assets attributable to Institutional Shares. Effective June 1, 2017 through July 31, 2018, the Transfer Agent has contractually agreed to waive such portion of the base fees that it would otherwise receive for serving as the transfer agent such that the aggregate transfer agent fee with respect to Institutional Shares of each of Quality, Emerging Markets would be calculated using an annual rate of 0.04 percent of that Fund’s net assets attributable to Institutional Shares. Prior to July 31, 2018, those arrangements only may be terminated by the Trustees in their sole discretion.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, the aggregate amount of transfer agent fees paid by the Funds, exclusive of fee waivers, was $4,913,275.

Fund Administration Fees

Pursuant to an Administration Agreement, the Manager provides certain administrative services to the Funds. During the year ended March 31, 2018, the aggregate amount of fees paid by all Funds pursuant to this agreement was $884,370.

The Trustees have approved reimbursement to the Manager for a percentage of the compensation (including benefits) paid by the Manager to the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer. For the year ended March 31, 2018, the Trust reimbursed the Manager a portion of the Chief Compliance Officer’s compensation in the aggregate amount of $233,731.

Custody and Fund Accounting

Custody and fund accounting services are provided to the Funds by State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”).

Trustees’ Fees

For the year ended March 31, 2018, each Trustee who was not an “interested person” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act, received a fee for serving in that role in the aggregate amount of $37,500, and each of the Chairman of the Audit Committee and the Lead Independent Trustee received additional payments in the aggregate amount of $3,000. All fees paid to the Trustees were allocated among the Funds in proportion to their respective net assets. Compensation for the services of the Trustee who was an interested person of the Trust during that period was paid by the Manager.

Fund Investments in Securities of Affiliated Entities

As of March 31, 2018, the market value of all securities of affiliated companies held in Emerging Markets Fund amounted to $61,894,442, representing 52.3% of net assets. As of March 31, 2018, no other Fund held securities of affiliated companies.

4. Purchases and Sales

During the year ended March 31, 2018, purchases of investment securities other than U.S. Government obligations and short-term investments for Small Cap, Quality, Emerging Markets, Foreign Value, and Foreign Value Small Cap, were $20,115,372, $60,972,238, $57,508,484, $1,113,190,761, and $420,347,215, respectively. Sales of such securities for the Funds were $23,990,719, $68,316,733, $64,736,470, $605,143,694 and $202,566,508, respectively.

5. Contingent Liability

The Trust maintains a joint fidelity bond with the Funds’ Transfer Agent through ICI Mutual Insurance Company (“ICI Mutual”). The annual premium is allocated among the Funds and the Transfer Agent. Additionally, the Funds have committed to ICI Mutual up to 300 percent of the annual premium, one-third of which was provided in cash, with each Fund’s pro rata portion recorded as an asset. The remainder is secured with an irrevocable letter of credit.

6. Concentration of Risk

The relatively large investments of Emerging Markets, and from time to time Foreign Value and Foreign Value Small Cap, in countries with limited or developing capital markets 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 each Fund’s investments and the income they generate, as well as each Fund’s ability to repatriate such amounts.

7. Federal Income Taxes

It is the policy of the Funds to distribute all of their taxable income within the prescribed time and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) applicable to regulated investment companies. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required.

The tax components of capital shown in the following tables represent: (1) losses or deductions the portfolios may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years, (2) distribution requirements the portfolios must satisfy under the income tax regulations, and (3) unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments for federal income tax purposes.

PEAR TREE FUNDS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Certain Funds had capital loss carryovers at March 31, 2018. The accumulated capital losses noted in the table may be available to offset future realized capital gains and thereby reduce future taxable gain distributions.

For the year ended March 31, 2018, capital losses utilized were as follows, Emerging Markets $6,998,512, Foreign Value $164,957,808 and Foreign Value Small Cap $11,868,387. The Emerging Markets Fund had $18,600,610 in capital loss carryforwards which expired March 31, 2018.

As a result of the passage of the Registered Investment Company Modification Act of 2010 (“the Act”), losses incurred in fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 and beyond retain their character as short-term or long-term and have no expiration date and are utilized before capital losses incurred prior to the Act.

The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by the tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Funds’ 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 2015-2017, or expected to be taken in the Funds’ 2018 tax returns. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and Massachusetts State; however the Funds are 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.

The primary differences between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of investments consist of wash sale loss deferrals, return of capital distributions by real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), mark-to-market valuation on passive foreign investment companies (“PFICs”) held and foreign capital gains taxes accrued. The net tax appreciation/(depreciation) in the table below includes unrealized tax gain/(loss) on foreign currency and investments.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require that certain components of net assets be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on a Fund’s net assets or a Fund’s net asset value per share. For the year ended March 31, 2018, permanent differences in book and tax accounting have been reclassified to shares of beneficial interest, undistributed/(over-distributed) net investment income and accumulated net realized gain/(loss) on investments and foreign denominated assets, liabilities and currency.

Foreign Value Fund			—			(488,135 )			488,135
Foreign Value Small Cap Fund			—			(202,562 )			202,562

The permanent differences primarily relate to net operating losses, return of capital distributions by real estate investment trusts (REITs) and non-REIT securities, foreign currency reclasses, adjustments for sale of shares in passive foreign investment corporations (PFICs) and capital loss carryovers expiring in current year.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Trustees of the Pear Tree Funds

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the Pear Tree Polaris Small Cap Fund, Pear Tree Quality Fund, Pear Tree PanAgora Emerging Markets Fund, Pear Tree Polaris Foreign Value Fund, and Pear Tree Polaris Foreign Value Small Cap Fund, each a series of the Pear Tree Funds (“the Funds”), including the schedules of investments, as of March 31, 2018, the related statements 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, and 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 Funds as of March 31, 2018, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and their 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 Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ 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 Funds 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 auditor of one or more of the funds in the Trust since 2007.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Funds’ 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 Funds’ 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 March 31, 2018 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

(a) - (d) The following chart shows the aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for services rendered by the registrant’s principal accountant, Tait, Weller and Baker, LLP (“Tait Weller”).

* “Audit Fees” are fees associated with professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

** “Audit-Related Fees” are fees associated with assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the registrant’s financial statements and are not reported under “Audit Fees

*** “Tax Fees” are fees associated with professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. Included with general tax compliance, advice and planning provided by Tait Weller to Pear Tree Funds was a review of Pear Tree Funds’ federal tax filings.

**** “All Other Fees” are fees associated with products and services provided by the principal accountant, other than the services reported as “Audit Fees,” “Audit-Related Fees,” or “Tax Fees.”

(i) All audit and permissible non-audit services rendered to the Pear Tree Funds; and

(ii) All permissible non-audit services rendered to Pear Tree Advisors, Inc. if the services relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant. Pre-approval is currently on an engagement-by-engagement basis.

The Audit Committee may delegate the pre-approval of audit and permissible non-audit services and the related fees to the Chairman of the Audit Committee. Any such member’s decision to pre-approve audit and/or non-audit services and related fees shall be presented to the full Audit Committee, solely for informational purposes, at their next scheduled meeting.

(a) The President and Treasurer of the registrant have concluded, based on their evaluation of the effectiveness of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 30a-3(c) under the 1940 Act) as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this report on Form N-CSR, that the design and operation of such procedures provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in this report on Form N-CSR is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

(b) There has been no change in the registrant’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the 1940 Act) that occurred during the second fiscal quarter of 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.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Company Act of 1940, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
