FORM N-CSRS

CERTIFIED SHAREHOLDER REPORT OF REGISTERED MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES

Investment Company Act file number 811-08191

The registrant’s Board of Directors determined that the registrant does not have an Audit Committee member who possesses all of the attributes required to be an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in instruction 2(b) of Item 3 of Form N-CSR. It was the consensus of the board that, although no one individual Audit Committee member meets the technical definition of an audit committee financial expert, the Committee has sufficient expertise collectively among its members to effectively discharge its duties and that the Committee will engage additional expertise if needed.

The registrant has engaged its principal accountant to perform audit services. “Audit services” refer to performing an 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 for those fiscal years. “Audit-related services” refer to the assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit. “Tax services” refer to professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. The following table details the aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees by the principal accountant. Since the accounting fees were approved by the Board of Directors in total, the principal accountant has provided an estimate of the split between audit and preparation of the tax filings.

The Audit Committee of the registrant’s Board of Directors recommends a principal accountant to perform audit services for the registrant. Each year, the registrant’s Board of Directors vote to approve or disapprove the principal accountant recommended by the Audit Committee for the following year’s accounting work.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

June 27, 2022

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

We are very proud to present the April 2022 Semi-Annual Report of Bullfinch Fund, Inc. This report contains the unaudited financial statements for both the Unrestricted Series and the Greater Western New York Series.

Two words describe the first quarter and they both begin with the letter “I.” Inflation soared to unprecedented heights and while the Russian invasion into Ukraine may have exasperated the situation, we have been teetering on runaway inflation for some time now.

Anyone who has bought gas over the last year knows that rising energy prices have been the root cause of inflation. Logistical log jams are generally temporary in nature. Public policies that fail to address obvious fluctuations in oil prices can lead to (and seems to have led to) sustained, longer term inflation. Add to this public policies that continue to encourage spending (not productivity) and you have continued demand-push inflation with short supply inventories.

We can forgive the initial public policy push as it was thought Covid would unnaturally slow the economy and increased government spending would be needed to prevent an economic crash. It turned out the Covid rebound happened much quicker than anyone expected. In a sense, this exasperated the inflation problem when demand returned before the supply chains were fully back in operation.

In terms of individual stock performance for the past six months, the Unrestricted Series was led by Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co., Meridian Bioscience, Inc., AAR Corporation, and Bristol-Myers Squibb Co., all up 30% or more. Of the stocks held for the full reporting period, Adobe, Inc., General Electric Co., and Amazon.com Inc., fell the most (by 26% or more).

In the Greater Western New York Series, Astronics Corp., Manning & Napier Inc, and Bristol-Myers Squibb Co., led the way, each up by more than 30%. On the downside, two stocks held the entire period (Graham Corp. and Gibraltar Industries, Inc.), fell by more than 41%.

The last six months have been a challenge for the market as a whole as the economy of the country has floundered for a variety of reasons. Fortunately, our defensive posture has cushioned our portfolios on the downside. As the prospects of a recession grow, we don’t anticipate a change in this strategy in the near-term.

We wish to thank our shareholders for expressing their confidence in us and wish you continued good fortune.

Best Regards,

Bullfinch Fund, Inc.

Christopher Carosa, CTFA

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The graph below represents the changes in value for an initial $10,000 investment in the BULLFINCH Fund from 11/1/11 to 4/30/22. These changes are then compared to a $10,000 investment in the Value Line Geometric Index. The Value LINE Geometric Index (VLG) is an unmanaged index of between 1,600 and 1,700 stocks. Value Line states “The VLG was intended to provide a rough approximation of how the median stock in the Value Line Universe performed. The VLG also has appeal to institutional investors as a proxy for the so-called ‘multi-cap’ market because it includes large cap, mid cap and small cap stocks alike.” The Fund feels it is an appropriate benchmark because the Fund’s portfolios are multi-cap portfolios. The Fund’s returns include the reinvestment of all dividends, but do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemptions of fund shares. Past performance is not predictive of future performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

UNRESTRICTED SERIES
(A SERIES WITHIN BULLFINCH FUND, INC.)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

APRIL 30, 2022 (UNAUDITED)

NOTE A - SCOPE OF BUSINESS

The Unrestricted Series (the “Series”) is a series within the Bullfinch Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”), which was organized as a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-ended non-diversified management investment company. The Fund offers two series of common stock. In addition to the Unrestricted Series, the Fund also offers the Greater Western New York Series.

The investment objective of the Series is to seek conservative long-term growth in capital. The Adviser seeks to achieve this objective by using an asset mix consisting primarily of exchange listed securities and over-the-counter common stocks as well as U.S. Government securities maturing within five years.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Series in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The Series follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standard Board Accounting Standard Codification 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies.

Fair Value Measurements – ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value:

Cash & Equivalents- Cash consists of amounts deposited in a bank sweept account and is federally insured. The Series has not experienced any losses on such amounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Security Valuation - The Series records its investments at fair value and is in compliance with FASB ASC 820-10-50. Securities traded on national securities exchanges or the NASDAQ National Market System are valued daily at the closing prices of the securities on those exchanges and securities traded on over-the-counter markets are valued daily at the closing bid prices. Short-term and money market securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

ASSETS AT FAIR VALUE AS OF:

In cases where market prices are unreliable or not readily available, for example, when trading on securities are halted as permitted by the SEC or when there is no trading volume on an Over-the-Counter security held by the Fund, the Fund relies on fair value pricing provided by the Adviser. In performing its fair value pricing, the Adviser acts under the ultimate supervision of, and follows, the policies of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors retains the right to determine its own fair value price should it have reason to believe the price provided by the Adviser does not reflect fair value. Valuing securities at fair value involves greater reliance on judgment than securities that have readily available market quotations. There can be no assurance the Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to a security if they were to sell the security at approximately the time at which the Fund determines their net asset value per share.

Series Allocations - Common expenses of the Fund are evenly split between the two series of the Fund unless the Board of Directors approves an alternative allocation of expenses based on management’s estimate.

Income Taxes - It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute an amount sufficient to avoid imposition of any excise tax under Section 4982 of the Code. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made.

Management has reviewed all open tax years and major tax jurisdictions and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Series’tax returns are open for examination by the relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitation which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return.

Distributions to Shareholders - Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Series made a distribution of its ordinary income of $22,165 to its shareholders on December 28, 2020, in the form of stock dividends equal to 986.224 shares of stock. The Series made a distribution of its short term capital gains of $629 to its shareholders on December 28, 2020, in the form of stock dividends equal to 27.978 shares of stock.

Other - The Series follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date. The specific identification method is used for determining gains and losses for financial statement and income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non –cash dividends received in the form of stock, if any, are recorded as dividend income at fair value. Distributions received by the Series may include a return of capital that is estimated by management. Such amounts are recorded as reduction of the cost of investments or reclassified to capital gains.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results can differ from those estimates.

Subsequent Events - In accordance with GAAP, the Fund has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date of issuance of these financial statements.

NOTE C – INVESTMENTS

For the six months ended April 30, 2022, the Series purchased $0 of common stock. During the same period, the Series redeemed $1,076,040 of common stock. The Series also redeemed $1,300,000 in Treasury Bills.

At April 30, 2022, the gross unrealized appreciation for all securities totaled $4,896,361 and the gross unrealized depreciation for all securities totaled 498,856 or a net unrealized appreciation of $4,397,505. The aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes at April 30, 2022 was $4,480,721.
