2     Semi-Annual Report November 30, 2020

Fellow Shareowners: January 25, 2021

Securities markets appreciated during the six months ended November 30, 2020, the first half of the Amana Funds’ fiscal year. Total return for the S&P 500 Index was 19.98% and the broader Dow Jones Islamic Market World Index returned 23.84%. Developing markets outpaced, with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index gaining 31.14%. Islamic fixed-income markets fared well too, with the FTSE Sukuk Index gaining 5.85%.

The Amana Fund portfolios performed respectably compared to these indices. Amana Developing World Investor Shares gained 23.79%, Amana Growth Investor Shares gained 23.62%, Amana Income Investor Shares gained 16.59%, and Amana Participation Investor Shares rose 4.06% for the six months ended November 30, 2020. As expected, lower expenses allowed the Institutional Shares of each Fund to post slightly better returns: Amana Developing World 23.92%, Amana Growth 23.59%, Amana Income 16.71%, and Amana Participation 4.18%. More than 44% of Amana’s shareowner assets are now in Institutional shares.

The Amana Funds’ investment philosophy is to follow Islamic principles, which preclude most investments in banking and finance. We favor companies with good sustainability factors, low debt levels, and strong balance sheets. In volatile and troubled times, these solid principles repeatedly prove their value.

2020 – A Great and Terrible Year

Calendar 2020 was a wild year for the S&P 500 Index, finally ending up 18.39%. Shining through the global pandemic, Amana Growth Fund trounced the S&P 500, with its Investor Shares up 32.86% for the year ended December 31, 2020. For 2019, with Amana Growth Investor up an almost identical 33.07%, we wrote “Great years only happen occasionally.” It’s nice to report that we were wrong. The compounded total return for the two years was 76.80%.

Amana Income Fund – 34 Years of Solid Investing

On June 23, 1986, Amana Income Fund began operations, with both Dr. Yaqub Mirza and Mr. Nicholas Kaiser as founding members of the Board of Trustees. From inception to November 30, 2020 – more than 34 years – the Income Fund’s Investor Shares provided an average annual return of 8.98% (after expenses). Few investment vehicles have such a long-term record of success.

Amana Participation Fund – Five Years of Success

The Amana Participation Fund began operations on September 28, 2015. It was designed with a primary objective of capital preservation and a secondary objective of current income, both consistent with Islamic principles. After five years of successful operation under the dedicated and capable Mr. Patrick Drum, we are pleased to note that investors have embraced its goal of lower volatility compared to equity markets. Assets of the Fund exceeded $141 million as of November 30, 2020.

Strong Comparisons

As experienced investors, we know that gains or losses over a short interval tell an incomplete story compared to performance evaluated over a lengthier time span. That’s why the long-term performance recognition that Amana has received is so important to our shareowners.

As of December 31, Amana Income and Amana Growth maintained strong long-term rankings in their respective mutual fund categories. Amana Income Investor Shares ranked in the top 25% of Morningstar’s “Large Blend” category, out of 591 similar funds surviving for at least 15 years. Amana Growth Investor Shares ranked in the top 31% of the “Large Growth” category, out of 566 similar funds surviving for 15 years. For the last 15 years, its annual total return was 11.83%.

For the past three years as of December 31, three Amana funds (Growth, Developing World, Participation) were rated 4 Stars by Morningstar for above average, risk-adjusted performance. Please refer to “Morningstar Ratings” on pages six and seven for more details.

Morningstar continues to award “Low Carbon” designations to Amana Income and Amana Growth, which identifies them as “low-carbon” funds within the global universe (see page seven).

Lower Expense Ratios

For the six months ended November 30, 2020, we are pleased to note reductions in annualized expense ratios of all Amana Funds and share classes. For the “clean” Institutional Share class of Amana Participation Fund it was 0.56%, for Amana Growth the expense ratio was 0.74%, for Amana Income it was 0.79%, and for Amana Developing World it was 0.94%. Investor Shares expense ratios for each Fund also decreased. See page 39 for more details.

Semi-Annual Report November 30, 2020     3

Lowering Future Expense Ratios

The Trustees continue to work at reducing fund expenses. A Fund’s expense ratio decreases as its assets increase, so please note that total assets for the Trust’s four Funds at November 30, 2020 were a record $4.25 billion – up 18% from the May 31 fiscal year end.

In addition, effective December 1, 2020, with greater assets to spread its costs, Saturna Capital again reduced Advisory and Administrative Services fee rates for the Amana equity funds.

Going Forward

We entered 2020 with cautious optimism. Geopolitical uncertainties, rich corporate valuations, and dubious monetary policies kept us vigilant, while generally strong business and economic fundamentals supported optimism. What we didn’t foresee was a global plague, widespread economic shutdowns, and massive government interventions. By nature, such a “black swan” is unforeseeable, and it’s also why we place emphasis on seeking out companies with robust balance sheets and competitive advantages to sustain operations even through stormy seas. We cannot control the weather, but we can plot a less risky course and pick solid vessels.

Plague year 2020 saw prices for homes, stocks, bonds, bitcoin, lumber, and many other assets soar above intrinsic values. The common thread is cheap money, flowing in from central banks, which supported prices and transformed the ways we save, invest, and consume. So, is there risk of major decline? Maybe this time it’s different? After all, officials are promising loose financial policies and more spending until we are well into a post-COVID recovery.

One way to consider whether or not the market has become irrational is to look at the cyclically adjusted price-to-earnings, or CAPE, ratio. This figure considers inflation-adjusted share prices relative to the 10-year average of real earnings per share. When we compare this figure with the US government’s 10-year interest rate, a common starting point for discount rates used in valuation, the market appears to be fairly priced. Looking ahead we don’t expect to see further multiple expansion, barring the Federal

Reserve cutting nominal interest rates into negative territory. With 2020 being far from a normal baseline, we expect some volatility as the market shakes out which companies are deserving of their newfound valuations.

But if company earnings fall short or the virus continues to bewilder vaccines, markets could fall as investors seek to exit. Social distruptions already roil the globe, from Washington DC and Seattle to Moscow and Hong Kong. Yet we retain faith in the power of human effort, resilience, and creativity.

Strong Management Matters

Amana Mutual Funds embody basic principles of sound finance: good governance, transparency, fairness, and risk sharing. The Trustees are active governors, taking seriously their responsibilities to shareowners. Saturna staff work globally, based in offices in Bellingham (Washington), Henderson (Nevada), and Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) to better serve you. While Mr. Kaiser retired in 2020 as the long-term primary manager of Amana Growth and Amana Income, his deputies for years and practioners of Amana’s principles – Mr. Scott Klimo and Mr. Monem Salam – along with other members of Saturna’s investment team, have continued the Amana portfolios’ successes. And Mr. Kaiser continues as the president and a trustee of Amana.

As a group, the five Amana Trustees are solidly committed to investing in Amana Mutual Funds. Including their affiliated accounts, they currently have over $33 million invested in the four mutual funds of the Trust. Both Dr. Mirza and Mr. Kaiser remain among the Trust’s largest individual shareowners.

Respectfully,

Nicholas Kaiser,

President

M. Yaqub Mirza,

Independent Board Chairman

The Morningstar Sustainability Rating and the Morningstar Portfolio Sustainability Score are not based on fund performance and are not equivalent to the Morningstar Rating (“Star Rating”).

^© 2020 Morningstar^®. All rights reserved. Morningstar, Inc. is an independent fund performance monitor. The information contained herein: (1) is proprietary to Morningstar and/or its content providers; (2) may not be copied or distributed; and (3) is not warranted to be accurate, complete, or timely. Neither Morningstar nor its content providers are responsible for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information.

^A  Morningstar Ratings^™ (“Star Ratings”) are as of November 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020. The Morningstar Rating^™ for funds, or “star rating”, is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product’s monthly excess performance (not including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods.

^B  Morningstar Sustainability Ratings are as of November 30,2020. The Morningstar Sustainability Rating^™ is intended to measure how well the issuing companies of the securities within a fund’s portfolio are managing their environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) risks and opportunities relative to the fund’s Morningstar category peers. The Morningstar Sustainability Rating calculation is a two-step process. First, each fund with at least 50% of assets covered by a company-level ESG score from Sustainalytics receives a Morningstar Portfolio Sustainability Score^™. The Morningstar Portfolio Sustainability Score is an asset-weighted average of normalized company-level ESG scores with deductions made for controversial incidents by the issuing companies, such as environmental accidents, fraud, or discriminatory behavior. The Morningstar Sustainability Rating is then assigned to all scored funds within Morningstar Categories in which at least ten (10) funds receive a Portfolio Sustainability Score and is determined by each fund’s rank within the following distribution: High (highest 10%), Above Average (next 22.5%), Average (next 35%), Below Average (next 22.5%), and Low (lowest 10%). The Morningstar Sustainability Rating is depicted by globe icons where High equals 5 globes and Low equals 1 globe. A Sustainability Rating is assigned to any fund that has more than half of its underlying assets rated by Sustainalytics and is within a Morningstar Category with at least 10 scored funds; therefore, the rating it is not limited to funds with explicit sustainable or responsible investment mandates. Morningstar updates its Sustainability Ratings monthly. Portfolios receive a Morningstar Portfolio Sustainability Score and Sustainability Rating one month and six business days after their reported as-of date based on the most recent portfolio. As part of the evaluation process, Morningstar uses Sustainalytics’ ESG scores from the same month as the portfolio as-of date.

The Fund’s portfolios are actively managed and subject to change, which may result in a different Morningstar Sustainability Score and Rating each month.

The Funds were rated on the following percentages of Assets Under Management:

Amana Income Fund	100%
Amana Growth Fund	100%
Amana Developing World Fund	100%

As of November 30, 2020, the Amana Participation Fund had not received a Sustainability Rating.

% Rank in Category is the fund’s percentile rank for the specified time period relative to all funds that have the same Morningstar category. The highest (or most favorable) percentile rank is 1 and the lowest (or least favorable) percentile rank is 100. The top-performing fund in a category will always receive a rank of 1. Percentile ranks within categories are most useful in those categories that have a large number of funds.

The Amana Mutual Funds offer two share classes – Investor Shares and Institutional Shares, each of which has different expense structures.

Morningstar Carbon Metrics (as of September 30, 2020)

Morningstar carbon metrics are asset-weighted portfolio calculations based on their Sustainalytics subsidiary’s carbon-risk research. Based on two of these metrics – Carbon Risk Score and Fossil Fund Involvement % – funds may receive the Low Carbon designation, which allows investors to easily identify low-carbon funds within the global universe.

The portfolio Carbon Risk Score is a number between 0 and 100 (a lower score is better). A portfolio’s Carbon Risk Score is the asset-weighted sum of the carbon risk scores of its holdings, averaged over the trailing 12 months. The carbon risk of a company is Sustainalytics’ evaluation of the degree to which a firm’s activities and products are aligned with the transition to a low-carbon economy. The assessment includes carbon intensity, fossil fuel involvement, stranded assets exposure, mitigation strategies, and green product solutions.

Fossil Fuel Involvement % is the portfolio’s asset-weighted percentage exposure to fossil fuels, averaged over the trailing 12 months. Companies with fossil fuel involvement are defined as those in the following subindustries: Thermal Coal Extraction, Thermal Coal Power Generation, Oil & Gas Production, Oil & Gas Power Generation, and Oil & Gas Products & Services.

To receive the Low Carbon designation a fund must have a Carbon Risk Score below 10 and a Fossil Fuel Involvement % of less than 7% of assets. For these metrics to be calculated, at least 67% of a portfolio’s assets must be covered by Sustainalytics company carbon-risk research. All Morningstar carbon metrics are calculated quarterly.

Amana Income Fund was rated on 96% and Amana Growth Fund was rated on 95% of assets under management.

Growth of $10,000

Comparison of any mutual fund to a market index must be made bearing in mind that the index is unmanaged and expense-free. Conversely, the Fund will (1) be actively managed; (2) have an objective other than mirroring the index, such as limiting risk; (3) bear transaction and other operational costs; (4) stand ready to buy and sell its securities to shareowners on a daily basis; and (5) provide a wide range of services. The graph compares $10,000 invested in Investor Shares of the Fund on November 30, 2010, to an identical amount invested in the S&P 500 Index, a broad-based stock market index. The graph shows that an investment in Investor Shares of the Fund would have risen to $28,548 versus $37,703 in the Index. Investor Shares are used in this chart because they represent the larger share class in terms of assets and have a longer track record. Please note that investors cannot invest directly in the index.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The “Growth of $10,000” graph and “Average Annual Returns” performance table assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. They do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareowner might pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

¹  Expense ratios shown in this table have been restated to reflect a reduction in the Advisory and Administrative Services fee, which became effective on December 1, 2020. Ratios presented in this table differ from the expense ratios shown elsewhere in this report as they represent older fiscal periods.

Amana Growth Fund: Performance Summary

Average Annual Returns (as of November 30, 2020)
	1 Year		5 Year		10 Year		Expense Ratio1
Investor Shares (AMAGX)		29.75%		18.55%		14.24%		1.03%
Institutional Shares (AMIGX)2		30.06%		18.83%		n/a		0.79%
S&P 500 Index		17.46%		13.97%		14.18%		n/a

Growth of $10,000

Comparison of any mutual fund to a market index must be made bearing in mind that the index is unmanaged and expense-free. Conversely, the Fund will (1) be actively managed; (2) have an objective other than mirroring the index, such as limiting risk; (3) bear transaction and other operational costs; (4) stand ready to buy and sell its securities to shareowners on a daily basis; and (5) provide a wide range of services. The graph compares $10,000 invested in Investor Shares of the Fund on November 30, 2010, to an identical amount invested in the S&P 500 Index, a broad-based stock market index. The graph shows that an investment in Investor Shares of the Fund would have risen to $37,844 versus $37,703 in the Index. Investor Shares are used in this chart because they represent the larger share class in terms of assets and have a longer track record. Please note that investors cannot invest directly in the index.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The “Growth of $10,000” graph and “Average Annual Returns” performance table assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. They do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareowner might pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

¹  Expense ratios shown in this table have been restated to reflect a reduction in the Advisory and Administrative Services fee, which became effective on December 1, 2020. Ratios presented in this table differ from the expense ratios shown elsewhere in this report as they represent older fiscal periods.

²  Institutional shares of the Amana Growth Fund began operations September 25, 2013.

Fund Objective

The objective of the Growth Fund is long-term capital growth, consistent with Islamic principles.

Amana Developing World Fund: Performance Summary

Average Annual Returns (as of November 30, 2020)

	1 Year		5 Year		10 Year		Expense Ratio1
Investor Shares (AMDWX)		18.60%		6.23%		1.37%		1.34%
Institutional Shares (AMIDX)2		18.84%		6.42%		n/a		1.21%
MSCI Emerging Markets Index		18.43%		10.71%		3.60%		n/a

Growth of $10,000

Comparison of any mutual fund to a market index must be made bearing in mind that the index is unmanaged and expense-free. Conversely, the Fund will (1) be actively managed; (2) have an objective other than mirroring the index, such as limiting risk; (3) bear transaction and other operational costs; (4) stand ready to buy and sell its securities to shareowners on a daily basis; and (5) provide a wide range of services. The graph compares $10,000 invested in Investor Shares of the Fund on November 30, 2010, to an identical amount invested in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, a broad-based international equity index. The graph shows that an investment in Investor Shares of the Fund would have fallen to $11,455 versus rising to $14,253 in the Index. Investor Shares are used in this chart because they have a longer track record. Please note that investors cannot invest directly in the index.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The “Growth of $10,000” graph and “Average Annual Returns” performance table assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. They do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareowner might pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

¹  By regulation, expense ratios shown in this table are as stated in the Funds’ most recent prospectus, which is dated September 25, 2020, and incorporates results for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2020. Ratios presented in this table differ from the expense ratios shown elsewhere in this report as they represent different fiscal periods.

²  Institutional shares of the Amana Developing World Fund began operations September 25, 2013.

Fund Objective

The objective of the Developing World Fund is long-term capital growth, consistent with Islamic principles.

Amana Participation Fund: Performance Summary

Average Annual Returns (as of November 30, 2020)
	1 Year		5 Year		10 Year		Expense Ratio1
Investor Shares (AMAPX)2		4.58%		3.21%		n/a		0.88%
Institutional Shares (AMIPX)2		4.93%		3.43%		n/a		0.64%
FTSE Sukuk Index		8.44%		5.39%		4.82%		n/a

Growth of $10,000

Comparison of any mutual fund to a market index must be made bearing in mind that the index is unmanaged and expense-free. Conversely, the Fund will (1) be actively managed; (2) have an objective other than mirroring the index, such as limiting risk; (3) bear transaction and other operational costs; (4) stand ready to buy and sell its securities to shareowners on a daily basis; and (5) provide a wide range of services. The graph compares $10,000 invested in Institutional Shares of the Fund on September 28, 2015, to an identical amount invested in the FTSE Sukuk Index, a measurement of global Islamic fixed income securities, also known as sukuk. The graph shows that an investment in Institutional Shares of the Fund would have risen to $11,779 versus $13,021 in the Index. Institutional Shares are used in this chart because they represent the larger share class in terms of assets. Please note that investors cannot invest directly in the index.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The “Growth of $10,000” graph and “Average Annual Returns” performance table assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. They do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareowner might pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

¹ By regulation, expense ratios shown in this table are as stated in the Funds’ most recent prospectus, which is dated September 25, 2020, and incorporates results for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2020. Ratios presented in this table differ from the expense ratios shown elsewhere in this report as they represent different fiscal periods.

²  The Amana Participation Fund commenced operations September 28, 2015.

Fund Objective

The objectives of the Participation Fund are capital preservation and current income, consistent with Islamic principles. Capital preservation is its primary objective.

Credit ratings are the lesser of S&P Global Ratings or Moody’s Investors Service. If neither S&P nor Moody’s rate a particular security, that security is categorized as not rated (except for US Treasury securities and securities issued or backed by US agencies which inherit the credit rating for the US government). Ratings range from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Bonds rated BBB or above are considered investment grade. Credit ratings BB and below are lower-rated securities (junk bonds). Ratings apply to the creditworthiness of the issuers of the underlying securities and not the fund or its shares. Ratings may be subject to change.

Notes To Financial Statements

Note 1 – Organization

Amana Mutual Funds Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware Statutory Trust on March 11, 2013, and is the successor to Amana Mutual Funds Trust, an Indiana Business Trust (“Prior Trust”) organized on July 26, 1984, pursuant to a reorganization on July 19, 2013. Each Fund is a series of the Trust and the Income, Growth, and Developing World Funds are successors to the corresponding series of the Prior Trust. The Trust is registered as an open-end, diversified management company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust restricts its investments to those acceptable to Muslims by investing in accordance with Islamic principles. Four portfolio series have been created. The Income Fund was first authorized to sell shares of beneficial interest to the public on June 23, 1986. The Growth Fund began operations on February 3, 1994. The Developing World Fund began operations on September 28, 2009. Institutional shares of Income, Growth, and Developing World Funds were first offered September 25, 2013. The Participation Fund (both Investor and Institutional Shares) began operations September 28, 2015. The Participation Fund is a nondiversified fund.

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

Each class of shares of a Fund represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments of the Fund and has in all respects the same rights and obligations as each other class of the Fund, except that each class bears its own class expenses, and each class has exclusive voting rights on matters affecting that class. Each class of shares may be subject to different investment minimums and other conditions of eligibility as may be described in the prospectus for the particular class of shares, as from time to time in effect.

Income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, and expenses to be paid by a Fund and not allocated to a particular class as provided below, shall be allocated to each class on the basis of relative net assets. Expenses allocable to a specific class are expenses specifically incurred by or for such class including the following:

• Distribution fees;

• Retirement plan custodial fees; and

• Any applicable service fees.

Net investment income dividends and capital gain distributions paid by the Fund on each class of its shares will be calculated in the same manner on the same day and at the same time.

Investment risks:

Income, Growth, Developing World, and Participation Funds: The value of the shares of each of the Funds rises and falls as the value of the securities in which the Funds invest goes up and down. The Funds limit the securities they purchase to those consistent with Islamic principles. This limits opportunities and may affect performance. Each of the Funds may invest in securities that are not traded in the United States. Investments in the securities of foreign issuers may involve risks in addition to those normally associated with investments in the securities of US issuers. These risks include currency and market fluctuations, and political or social instability. The risks of foreign investing are generally magnified in the smaller and more volatile securities markets of the developing world.

Growth Fund: The smaller and less seasoned companies that may be in the Growth Fund have a greater risk of price volatility.

Participation Fund: While the Participation Fund does not invest in conventional bonds, risks similar to those of conventional fixed-income funds apply. These include: diversification and concentration risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, and high-yield risk. The Participation Fund also includes risks specific to investments in Islamic fixed-income instruments. The structural complexity of sukuk, along with the weak infrastructure of the sukuk market, increases risk. As compared to rights of conventional bondholders, holders of sukuk may have limited ability to pursue legal recourse to enforce the terms of the sukuk or to restructure the sukuk in order to seek recovery of principal. Sukuk are also subject to the risk that some Islamic scholars may deem certain sukuk as not meeting Islamic investment principles subsequent to the sukuk being issued.

The Funds may invest substantially in one or more sectors, which can increase volatility and exposure to issues specific to a particular sector or industry.

Note 2 – Unaudited Information

The information in this interim report has not been subject to independent audit.

Note 3 – Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which are consistently followed by the Funds in preparation of their financial statements.

Security valuation:

Investments in securities traded on a national securities exchange and over-the-counter securities for which sale prices are available are valued at that price. Securities for which there are no sales are valued at latest bid price.

Foreign markets may close before the time as of which the Funds’ share prices are determined. Because of this, events occurring after the close and before the determination of the Funds’ share prices may have a material effect on the values of some or all of the Funds’ foreign securities. To account for this, the Funds may use outside pricing services for valuation of their non-US securities.

In cases in which there is not a readily available market price, a fair value for such security is determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Trustees.

Security transactions are recorded on trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of securities are recorded on the identified cost basis.

Sukuk certificates in which the Participation Fund invests are valued based on evaluated prices supplied by an independent pricing service, which include valuations provided by market makers and other participants, provided that there is sufficient market activity on which the pricing service can base such valuations. Where market activity is insufficient for making such determinations, the independent pricing service uses proprietary valuation methodologies and may consider a variety of factors, such as yield curves, credit spreads, estimated default rates, anticipated market interest rate volatility, coupon rates, and other factors in order to calculate the security’s fair value.

Notes To Financial Statements (continued)

Foreign currency:

Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions.

The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the US dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Share valuation:

Each Fund computes the share price of each share class by dividing the net assets attributable to each share class by the outstanding shares of that class. Each share class represents an interest in the same investment portfolio. Each share class is identical in all respects except that each class bears its own class expenses, and each class has exclusive voting rights. As a result of the differences in the expenses borne by each share class, the share price and distributions will vary among a Fund’s share classes. The Funds’ shares are not priced or traded on days the New York Stock Exchange is closed. The NAV is both the offering and redemption price per share.

Fair value measurements:

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 establishes a three-tier framework for measuring fair value based on a hierarchy of inputs. The hierarchy distinguishes between market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and the Funds’ own market assumptions (unobservable inputs). These inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments and are summarized below.

Share Valuation Inputs as of November 30, 2020

Funds	Quoted Price	Significant Observable Input	Significant Unobservable Input	Total

34     Semi-Annual Report November 30, 2020

Notes To Financial Statements (continued)

Level 1 —  Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Trust has the ability to access.

Level 2 —  Observable inputs other than quoted prices 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 the Trust’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 availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of 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 the 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.

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

The table on page 38 is a summary of the inputs used as of November 30, 2020, in valuing the Funds’ investments carried at fair value.

Investment concentration:

The fundamental policies of the Funds prohibit earning interest, in accordance with Islamic principles. Consequently, cash is held in non-interest-bearing deposits with the Funds’ custodian or other banks. “Other assets (net of liabilities)” in the Funds’ Schedules of Investments primarily represents cash on deposit with the custodian. Cash on deposit will vary widely over time. Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 825, “Financial Instruments,” identifies these items as a concentration of credit risk. The risk is managed by careful financial analysis and review of the custodian’s operations, resources, and protections available to the Trust. This process includes evaluation of other financial institutions providing investment company custody services.

Federal income taxes:

The Funds intend to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and to make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to its shareowners sufficient to relieve it from all or substantially all federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

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 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 (2017—2019) or expected to be taken in the Funds’ 2020 tax returns. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdiction as US federal and foreign jurisdictions where the Funds make significant investments; 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 12 months.

Reclassification of capital accounts:

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications are as of the fiscal year ended May 31, 2020, and have no effect on net assets or NAV per share.

	Income Fund		Growth Fund
Distributed earnings	$-		$-
Paid-in capital	$-		$-
	Developing World Fund		Participation Fund
Distributed earnings	$21,646		$-
Paid-in capital	$(21,646	)	$-

Distributions to shareowners:

For the Amana Participation Fund, dividends to shareowners from net investment income are paid daily and distributed on the last business day of each month. For the Amana Income Fund, Amana Growth Fund, and Amana Developing World Fund, dividends to shareowners from net investment income, if any, are paid in May and December. As a result of their investment strategies, the Growth and Developing World Funds do not expect to pay income dividends. Distributions of capital gains, if any, are made at least annually, and as required to comply with federal excise tax requirements. Distributions to shareowners are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends are paid in shares of the Funds, at the net asset value on the payable date. Shareowners may elect to take distributions if they total $10 or more in cash.

Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 increases and decreases in net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign taxes:

Withholding taxes on foreign dividends are paid (a portion of which may be reclaimable) or provided for in accordance with the applicable country’s tax rules and rates and are disclosed in the Statement of Operations. Withholding tax reclaims are filed in certain countries to recover a portion of the amounts previously withheld. The Funds record a reclaim receivable based on a number of factors, including a jurisdiction’s legal obligation to pay reclaims as well as payment history and market convention.

Notes To Financial Statements (continued)

LIBOR Transition Risk:

The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority announce a phase out of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) by the end of 2021 and it is expected that LIBOR will cease to be published after that time. The Funds may be exposed to financial instruments tied to LIBOR to determine payment obligations, financing terms, hedging activities, or investment value. The transition process away from LIBOR might lead to increase volatility and illiquidity in markets for , and reduce the effectiveness of new hedges placed against, instruments whose term currently include LIBOR. The ultimate effect of the LIBOR transition process on the Funds is uncertain.

Other:

Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, and sukuk income is recognized on an accrual basis.

Expenses incurred by the Trust on behalf of the Funds (e.g., professional fees) are allocated to the Funds on the basis of relative daily average net assets. Net investment losses may not be utilized to offset net investment income in future periods for tax purposes

Recent Accounting Pronouncement:

In August 2018, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820: Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 eliminates the requirement to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the timing of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 will require the need to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and the changes in unrealized gains and losses for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 will also require that information is provided about the measurement uncertainty of Level 3 fair value measurements as of the reporting date. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, and allows for early adoption of either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify the requirements. Management has elected to adopt early the provisions that eliminate the disclosure requirements. Management is still currently evaluating the impact of applying the rest of the guidance.

Note 4 – Transactions with Affiliated Persons

Under a contract approved annually by the Board of Trustees of the Trrust, including those who are not party to the contract or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) of such parties or the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), Saturna Capital Corporation (“Saturna Capital”) provides investment advisory services and certain other administrative services and facilities required to conduct Trust business. Effective December 1, 2020, the Amana Growth Fund, Amana Income Fund, and Amana Developing World Fund each pay an advisory and administration fee of 0.80% on the first $1 billion of a Fund’s average daily net assets, 0.65% on the next $1 billion, and 0.50% on assets over $2 billion. The Amana Participation Fund pays an advisory and administration fee of 0.50% annually of the average daily net assets. For the fiscal period ended November 30, 2020, the Funds paid the following advisory fees to Saturna Capital:

	Advisory fees
Income Fund	$5,150,462
Growth Fund	$8,733,794
Developing World Fund	$149,601
Participation Fund	$327,785

Certain officers and one trustee of Amana are also officers and directors of the investment adviser.

Saturna Brokerage Services, Inc. (“SBS”), a subsidiary of Saturna Capital, is registered as a broker-dealer and acts as distributor. The Funds have adopted a Distribution Plan in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act applicable to the Investor Shares of each Fund. The plan provides that the Funds will pay a fee to SBS at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets applicable to Investor Shares of each Fund. The fee is paid to SBS as reimbursement for expenses incurred for distribution-related activity. For the fiscal period ended November 30, 2020, the Funds paid the following distribution fees to SBS:

Distribution (12b-1) fees
Income Fund Investor Shares (AMANX)	$936,814
Income Fund Institutional Shares (AMINX)	n/a
Growth Fund Investor Shares (AMAGX)	$1,782,414
Growth Fund Institutional Shares (AMIGX)	n/a
Developing World Fund Investor Shares (AMDWX)	$18,136
Developing World Fund Institutional Shares (AMIDX)	n/a
Participation Fund Investor Shares (AMAPX)	$24,636
Participation Fund Institutional Shares (AMIPX)	n/a

For the fiscal period ended November 30, 2020, Saturna Capital spent an additional $3,324,241 of its own resources, and not part of the 12b-1 expense of the Funds, to compensate broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries, or their affiliates, in connection with the sale, distribution, retention, and/or servicing of Fund shares. To the extent that these resources are derived from advisory fees paid by the Funds, these payments could be considered “revenue sharing.” Any such payments will not change the net asset value or the price of a Fund’s shares.

SBS is used to effect equity portfolio transactions for the Trust. SBS currently executes portfolio transactions without commission. Transactions effected through other brokers are subject to commissions payable to that broker.

Saturna Trust Company (“STC”), a subsidiary of Saturna Capital, acts as retirement plan custodian for Fund shareowners. Each class of shares of a Fund pays an annual fee of $10 per account for retirement plan services to Saturna Trust Company. For the fiscal period ended November 30, 2020, the Funds incurred the following retirement plan custodial fees to STC:

Retirement plan custodial fees
Income Fund Investor Shares (AMANX)	$30
Income Fund Institutional Shares (AMINX)	$5,495
Growth Fund Investor Shares (AMAGX)	$45
Growth Fund Institutional Shares (AMIGX)	$6,571
Developing World Fund Investor Shares (AMDWX)	$5
Developing World Fund Institutional Shares (AMIDX)	$1,537
Participation Fund Investor Shares (AMAPX)	$38

Expenses

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As an Amana Mutual Fund shareowner, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (or service) 12b-1 fees, and other Fund expenses such as shareowner reports (like this one). Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross earnings, directly reduce the investment return of a fund. Mutual funds (unlike other financial investments) only report their results after deduction of operating expenses.

With the Amana Funds, unlike many mutual funds, you do not incur sales charges (loads) on purchases, reinvested dividends, or other distributions. There are no redemption fees or exchange fees. You may incur fees related to extra services requested by you for your account, such as bank wires. The examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Examples

The following examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (June 1, 2020 to November 30, 2020).

Actual Expenses

The first line for each Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you have invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during

this period. The Funds may charge for extra services (such as domestic bank wires, international bank wires, or overnight courier delivery of redemption checks) rendered on request, which you may need to estimate to determine your total expenses.

Hypothetical Example For Comparison Purposes

The second line for each Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio (based on the last six months) 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 expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareowner reports of other mutual funds. You may wish to add other fees that are not included in the expenses shown in the table, such as IRA fees charged by custodians other than Saturna Trust Company (note that Saturna does not charge such fees to shareowners directly on Saturna IRAs, ESAs, or HSAs with the Amana Funds), and charges for extra services such as bank wires. Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads) or exchange fees (note that the Amana Funds do not assess any such transactional costs). Therefore, the “Hypothetical” line of each fund is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and may not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Renewal of Investment Advisory Contract

During their meeting of September 14, 2020, the Trustees of Amana Mutual Funds Trust, including the Independent Trustees, discussed the continuance of the Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement between the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, and Saturna Capital Corporation (“Saturna”), focusing on the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by Saturna to the Amana Funds. The Trustees considered Saturna’s specific responsibilities in all aspects of day-to-day management of the Funds as well as the qualifications, experience and responsibilities of the Funds’ portfolio managers and other key personnel at Saturna. The Trustees considered that the Funds offer a full range of high-quality investor services, including unique services for Islamic investors. The Trustees discussed Saturna’s experience, ability, and commitment to quality service through performing internally such functions as shareowner servicing, administration, retirement plans, accounting, marketing, and distribution – all in addition to investment management.

The Trustees took into consideration Saturna’s continued avoidance of significant operational and regulatory compliance problems, plus its continued investments in infrastructure, information management systems, personnel, training, compliance, and investor education materials, all designed to meet investor needs with high quality services. They recognized Saturna’s efforts to recruit and retain qualified, experienced, and specialized staff and improve the capital base on which Saturna operates, which the Trustees believe is important to the long-term success of the Funds. The Trustees recognized Saturna’s focus on investors and its efforts to avoid conflicts of interest.

The Trustees considered the investment performance of each Fund over time, including comparative information from Morningstar and Lipper, which provide independent analysis of mutual fund data and, among other things, rank mutual fund performance within categories comprised of similarly managed funds. The Trustees considered and discussed each Fund’s performance relative to the Fund’s Morningstar category for the one-, three-, five-, ten-, and fifteen-year periods, as applicable, and the related Morningstar rankings (one through five stars) for the three-, five- and ten-year periods, as applicable, ended as of July 31, 2020. The Trustees also noted the high ratings for sustainability assigned to the Amana Growth Fund and Amana Developing World Fund by Morningstar. The Trustees also considered each Fund’s performance within its Lipper category.

The Trustees considered the short-, medium- and long-term investment performance of Amana Income Fund, Amana Growth Fund, and Amana Developing World Fund, each relative to their Morningstar and Lipper categories and noted that the Funds were managed for the long term. The Trustees also considered the short-term performance of Amana Participation Fund. The Trustees noted that the long-term investment performance of Amana Income Fund and Amana Growth Fund, both in absolute numbers and relative to Morningstar and Lipper categories, remained strong. The Trustees noted that the longer term performance of the Amana Developing World Funds was in the fourth quartile for its Morningstar category, but that Fund’s shorter term performance was in the top quartile and the second quartile for the one- and three-year periods, respectively. The Trustees noted that the Amana Participation Fund’s shorter term performance was in the top quartile and the second quartile for its Morningstar category for the one- and three-year periods, respectively. The Trustees

noted the risk-averse investment style used by Saturna to manage the Funds and considered other factors, which can affect a Fund’s performance relative to the Fund’s broader Morningstar and Lipper peer categories. In evaluating such performance data, the Trustees noted that Islamic investment restrictions to which the Funds adhere increase Saturna’s research expenses and obligations and impose constraints on Saturna’s selection of the Funds’ portfolio investments that impact performance. The Trustees found that Saturna continued to manage the Funds in a manner that is designed to be acceptable to Islamic investors and that the risk averse approach also is attractive non-Islamic long-term investors.

Recognizing the investment mandates of the Funds, the Trustees also considered the performance of the Funds as compared to a more limited group of other funds with similar investment objectives and strategies, including faith-based managed funds, and a range of asset sizes. The Trustees considered these comparative performance data, along with the comparative data published by Morningstar and Lipper, as well as each Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark, to evaluate each Fund’s performance over near-term and long-term time periods, as applicable. When evaluating the Funds’ performance record, the Board noted that relative performance comparisons, especially over limited periods of time, is only one of the factors that it deems relevant to its consideration of each Fund’s agreement. The Board noted that, after considering all relevant factors, it may be appropriate to approve the continuation of the agreement notwithstanding a Fund’s underperformance relative to its Morningstar or Lipper peer groups during certain periods.

The Trustees also reviewed the fees and expenses of the Funds and considered the components of each Fund’s operating expenses. The Trustees noted that the expense ratios for both share classes of Amana Growth Fund, Amana Developing World Fund and Amana Participation Fund and for the Institutional share class of Amana Income Fund were the same as or below their respective Morningstar category average expense ratios, and the expense ratio for the Investor share class of Amana Income Fund was higher than the Morningstar category average expense ratio. The Trustees also noted that, effective in 2019, Saturna had agreed to reduce the breakpoints in the investment advisory fee for Amana Growth Fund, Amana Income Fund and Amana Developing World Fund, by five basis points at each asset level, and effective on December 1, 2020, Saturna had agreed to a further reduction in the advisory fee breakpoints for these Funds at higher asset levels in excess of $1 billion. The Trustees noted that these actions were expected to lower the Funds’ advisory fees at current and/ or higher asset levels. In light of the services provided by Saturna, the Trustees found each Fund’s advisory fee structure and expense ratios to be reasonable given the size of each Fund, the services provided, and the expenses incurred by the adviser. They noted the significant sponsorship of the Funds by Saturna evidenced, in part, by the amount of fees and expenses paid by Saturna out of its own resources to brokerage platforms and similar unaffiliated intermediaries. The Trustees noted that the expenses imposed by intermediaries are often borne by funds and the Trustees appreciated that Saturna’s efforts help make the Funds more widely available and otherwise less expensive had the Funds borne these expenses. The Trustees recognized that the competitive performance record of Amana Income Fund and Amana Growth Fund over the long-term had likely contributed to their asset size, which resulted in lower expense ratios due to rising costs being

40     Semi-Annual Report November 30, 2020

spread over a larger asset base. The Trustees also took note of the costs borne by Saturna in subsidizing operations of the Amana Developing World Fund and Amana Participation Fund, noting that it had committed significant resources in developing and managing these Funds.

The Trustees reviewed Saturna’s financial information and discussed the issue of Saturna’s profitability related to its management and administration of the Funds. They discussed the reasonableness of Saturna’s profitability with respect to each of the Funds as part of their evaluation of whether the advisory fees bear a reasonable relationship to the mix of services provided by Saturna, including the nature, extent, and quality of such services. The Trustees noted Saturna’s decades of dedicated service provided to Amana Mutual Fund Trust and its shareowners.

The Trustees considered the extent to which advisory fees paid to Saturna reflect economies of scale. The Trustees considered the fact that fee breakpoints lower the operating expenses and expense ratios of the Funds as assets grow and demonstrate the benefits of economies of scale are being shared with shareowners. In this connection, the Board noted that the investment advisory fee rate schedules for each Fund other than the Amana Participation Fund include breakpoints that reduce the fee rate as Fund assets increase above certain levels, and that Saturna has agreed, in 2019 and effective December 1, 2020, to reduce the breakpoints in the investment advisory fee for Amana Growth Fund, Amana Income Fund and Amana Developing World Fund as described above. With respect to the Amana Participation Fund, the Board determined that the investment advisory fees are reasonable and appropriate and that breakpoints in the fee schedule are unnecessary based on the current level of the Fund’s assets. The Trustees considered and compared the fees charged by Saturna to other types of advisory accounts for which Saturna serves as an investment adviser, including non-mutual fund advisory clients and individual advisory clients. The Trustees noted the significant differences between the full range of services Saturna provides to the Funds, including investment advisory and administrative services, transfer agency services, and other services, as compared to the investment advisory services provided to the other advisory accounts. The Trustees also considered how the various services provided to those other accounts, which include Saturna’s investment management, research, and customer service operations performed for those accounts, benefit the Funds.

The Trustees considered potential benefits to Saturna and to its other businesses from acting as investment adviser for the Funds, but also noted that Saturna’s other business lines also potentially benefit the Funds. The Trustees also noted that there were no soft dollar arrangements with respect to trading in the Funds’ portfolios and that Saturna’s affiliated broker, Saturna Brokerage Services, voluntarily waives brokerage commissions for executing Fund portfolio transactions, resulting in lower transaction costs for the Funds. The Trustees further considered that Saturna was currently waiving its transfer agency fees to zero for each Fund.

The Trustees concluded that the fees paid by the Funds to Saturna were, from an arm’s-length bargaining perspective, reasonable and in the best interest of the Funds and their shareowners in light of the services provided, comparative performance, expense and advisory fee information, costs of services provided, profits to be realized, and benefits derived or to be derived by Saturna from its relationship with the Funds. Following this discussion, the Trustees unanimously agreed based on their business judgment to renew the Investment Advisory and Administrative Services Agreement between Saturna and Amana Growth Fund, Amana Income Fund, Amana Developing World Fund, and Amana Participation Fund.

Statement Regarding Liquidity Risk Management Program

The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Liquidity Rule”) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.

Pursuant to the Liquidity Rule, the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, has adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “Program”) to govern the Trust’s approach to managing liquidity risk. The Program is overseen by Saturna Capital’s Liquidity Risk Committee, and the Program’s principal objectives include assessing, managing and periodically reviewing each Fund’s liquidity risk, based on factors specific to the circumstances of the Fund.

At a meeting of the Board held on December 7, 2020, the Trustees received a report addressing the operation of the Program and assessing its adequacy and effectiveness of implementation. It was reported to the Board that the assessment found that the Program was adequately designed and effective in achieving its objectives. Further, that review of the Program’s implementation evidenced substantial compliance with relevant policies and procedures.
