Performance Summaries
April 30, 2022 (Unaudited)
The following is performance information for the Funds. The returns represent past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The Funds’ investment returns will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. The Funds are not subject to a sales charge, so a sales charge is not applied to their total returns. In addition to the Adviser’s decisions regarding issuer/industry investment selection and allocation, other factors may affect Fund performance. These factors include, but are not limited to, Fund operating fees and expenses, portfolio turnover, and subscription and redemption cash flows affecting the Funds. Please visit our website at www.commercefunds.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns.

Recent Market Events related to COVID-19
In early 2020, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) emerged globally. The outbreak has resulted in travel and border restrictions, quarantines, curfews, restrictions on large gatherings, cancellations, lower consumer activity, diminished demand for a wide range of products and services, disruption in manufacturing and supply chains and general public concern and uncertainty. While governments have taken unprecedented actions to limit disruption to the financial system caused by COVID-19, global financial markets have experienced, and may continue to experience, significant losses in value, volatility and liquidity constraints resulting from the spread of the disease. Although vaccines for COVID-19 are becoming more widely available, the future impact of COVID-19 is currently unknown, and the pace of recovery may vary from market to market, which may exacerbate other risks that apply to the Funds, including political, social and economic risks. Any such impact could adversely affect a Fund’s performance and the performance of the securities in which a Fund invests, and may lead to losses on your investment in the Fund. The full extent of the impact of COVID-19 on a Fund’s performance cannot be determined at this time and will depend on future developments, including the duration and the continued spread of the disease as well as the availability and success of related vaccines. The Commerce Funds’ long-term commitment to shareholders remains unchanged, and we encourage you to maintain perspective and stay current with timely commentary and investment insights by visiting Commercefunds.com.

THE COMMERCE FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements
April 30, 2022 (Unaudited)
The Commerce Funds (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end, management investment company. The Trust consists of eight portfolios (individually, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”): Growth Fund, Value Fund, MidCap Growth Fund, Bond Fund, Short-Term Government Fund, National Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund, Missouri Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund and Kansas Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund. Each of the Funds offers one class of shares (the “Shares”). Each Fund is classified as a diversified open-end management investment company, except the Growth Fund, which is classified as non-diversified under the Act.
The Funds have entered into an Advisory Agreement with Commerce Investment Advisors, Inc. (the “Adviser” or “Commerce”), a subsidiary of Commerce Bank.
| | |
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | | |
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and require management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. Each Fund is an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.
A. Investment Valuation — The Funds’ valuation policy is to value investments at fair value.
B. Investment Income and Investments — Investment income is comprised of interest income, and dividend income. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date with realized gains and losses on sales calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV’’) calculations. Distributions received from the Funds’ investments in United States (“U.S.”) real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain or a return of capital. A return of capital is recorded by the Funds as a reduction to the cost basis of the REIT. For treasury inflation indexed securities, adjustments to principal due to inflation/deflation are reflected as increases/decreases to interest income with a corresponding adjustment to cost.
For securities with paydown provisions, principal payments received are treated as a proportionate reduction to the cost basis of the securities and excess or shortfall amounts are recorded as income.
C. Expenses — Expenses incurred by the Trust that do not specifically relate to an individual Fund of the Trust are allocated to the Funds based on each Fund’s average net assets and are accrued daily.
D. Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies (mutual funds) and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Funds are not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid according to the following schedule:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Income Distribution | | Capital Gains Distribution |
Fund | | Declared | | Paid | | Declared | | Paid |
| | | | |
Value | | Quarterly | | Quarterly | | Annually | | Annually |
| | | | |
Growth and MidCap Growth | | Annually | | Annually | | Annually | | Annually |
| | | | |
Bond, Short-Term Government, National Tax-Free Intermediate Bond, Missouri Tax-Free Intermediate Bond and Kansas Tax-Free Intermediate Bond | | Daily | | Monthly | | Annually | | Annually |

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) | | |
Net capital losses, if any, are carried forward to future fiscal years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gains distributions.
The characterization of distributions to shareholders for financial reporting purposes is determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from GAAP. The source of each Fund’s distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either from distributable earnings or capital. Certain components of the Funds’ net assets on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities reflect permanent GAAP/tax differences based on the appropriate tax character.
E. Forward Commitments — A forward commitment involves entering into a contract to purchase or sell securities, typically on an extended settlement basis, for a fixed price at a future date. The purchase of securities on a forward commitment basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines before the settlement date. Conversely, the sale of securities on a forward commitment basis involves the risk that the value of the securities sold may increase before the settlement date. Although a Fund will generally purchase securities on a forward commitment basis with the intention of acquiring the securities for its portfolio, the Fund may dispose of forward commitments prior to settlement which may result in a realized gain or loss.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | | |
U.S. GAAP defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price); the Funds’ policy is to use the market approach. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these investments. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk), either directly or indirectly;
Level 3 — Prices or valuations that require significant unobservable inputs (including the Adviser’s assumptions in determining fair value measurement).
The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted valuation procedures (“Valuation Procedures”) that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Funds, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Board has delegated to Commerce day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Funds’ portfolio investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, Commerce regularly performs price verifications and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued) | | |
A. Level 1 and Level 2 Fair Value Investments — The valuation techniques and significant inputs used in determining the fair values for investments classified as Level 1 and Level 2 are as follows:
Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a U.S. securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by the Adviser to not represent fair value, equity securities may be valued at the closing bid price. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. Certain equity securities containing unique attributes may be classified as Level 2.
Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price on the valuation date, or if no sale occurs, at the last bid price, and are generally classified as Level 2 .
Underlying Funds (including Money Market Funds) — Underlying Funds (“Underlying Funds”) include other investment companies in which the Funds may invest. Investments in the Underlying Funds are valued at the NAV per share on the day of valuation. Because the Funds invests in Underlying Funds that fluctuate in value, the Funds’ shares will correspondingly fluctuate in value. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. For information regarding an Underlying Fund’s accounting policies and investment holdings, please see the Underlying Fund’s shareholder report.
Debt Securities — Debt securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued daily on the basis of quotations furnished by an independent pricing service or provided by securities dealers. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which consider yield or price with respect to comparable bonds, quotations from bond dealers or by reference to other securities that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date, to determine current value. With the exception of treasury securities of G7 countries, which are generally classified as Level 1, these investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
i. Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities — Mortgage-backed securities represent direct or indirect participations in, or are collateralized by and payable from, mortgage loans secured by residential and/or commercial real estate property. Asset-backed securities include securities whose principal and interest payments are collateralized by pools of other assets or receivables. The value of certain mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities (including adjustable rate mortgage loans) may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. The value of these securities may also fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers.
Asset-backed securities may present credit risks that are not presented by mortgage-backed securities because they generally do not have the benefit of a security interest in collateral that is comparable to mortgage assets. Some asset-backed securities may only have a subordinated claim on collateral.
Collateralized mortgage-backed securities (“CMOs”) may exhibit even more price volatility and interest rate risk than other mortgage-backed securities. They may lose liquidity as CMO market makers may choose not to repurchase, or may offer prices, based on current market conditions, that are unacceptable to a Fund based on the Adviser’s analysis of the market value of the security.
ii. Treasury Inflation Indexed Securities — These are treasury securities in which the principal amount is adjusted daily to keep pace with inflation, as measured by the U.S. Consumer Pricing Index for Urban Consumers. The repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity is guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. The value of U.S. Treasury inflation protected public obligations will generally fluctuate in response to changes in real interest rates, generally decreasing when real interest rates rise and increasing when real interest rates fall. Inflation-protected bonds typically have lower yields than conventional fixed-rate bonds because of their inflation adjustment feature.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued) | | |
Short Term Investments — Short-term investments, except for Government obligations, having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Government obligations maturing in less than 60 days shall be valued at their market price. With the exception of treasury securities, which are generally classified as Level 1, these investments are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
i. When-Issued Securities and Forward Commitments — When-issued securities, including TBA (“To Be Announced”) securities, are securities that are authorized but not yet issued in the market and purchased in order to secure what is considered to be an advantageous price or yield to a Fund. A forward commitment involves entering into a contract to purchase or sell securities, typically on an extended settlement basis, for a fixed price at a future date. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines before the settlement date. Conversely, the sale of securities on a forward commitment basis involves the risk that the value of the securities sold may increase before the settlement date. Although a Fund will generally purchase securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis with the intention of acquiring the securities for its portfolio, the Fund may dispose of when-issued securities or forward commitments prior to settlement, which may result in a realized gain or loss.
For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund and cash collateral received, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as receivables/payables for collateral on certain contracts. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments. There is no collateral held as of April 30, 2022.
B. Level 3 Fair Value Investments — The valuation techniques and significant inputs used in determining the fair values for investments classified as Level 3 are as follows:
To the extent that the aforementioned significant inputs are unobservable, or if quotations are not readily available, or if Commerce believes that such quotations do not accurately reflect fair value, the fair value of a Fund’s investments may be determined under valuation procedures approved by the Board. Commerce, consistent with the Funds’ procedures and applicable regulatory guidance, may make an adjustment to the most recent valuation prices of either domestic or foreign securities in light of significant events to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities at the time of determining a Fund’s NAV. Significant events that could affect a large number of securities in a particular market may include, but are not limited to: significant fluctuations in U.S. or foreign markets; market dislocations; market disruptions; or unscheduled market closings. Significant events that could also affect a single issuer may include, but are not limited to: corporate actions such as reorganizations, mergers and buyouts; ratings downgrades; and bankruptcies.

4. AGREEMENTS AND OTHER AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS (continued) | | |
Agreement. Under the Co-Administration Agreement, GSAM and Commerce administer the Trust’s business affairs. As compensation for the services rendered under the Co-Administration Agreement, GSAM and Commerce are entitled to a fee, accrued daily and payable monthly, at the contractual annual rate of the corresponding Fund’s average daily net assets. Pursuant to the Co-Administration Agreement, the Funds pay an aggregate administrative fee at the annual rate of 0.1375% of 1% of each Fund’s average daily net assets, allocated as follows: (1) for each Fund, Commerce is entitled to receive an administrative fee payable on the last day of each month at the annual rate of 0.12% of 1% of each Fund’s average daily net assets; and (2) for each Fund, GSAM is entitled to receive an administrative fee payable on the last day of each month at the annual rate of 0.0175% of 1% of each Fund’s average daily net assets. State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) also provides certain enhanced accounting and administrative services to the Funds pursuant to an Amended and Restated Enhanced Accounting and Administrative Services Agreement which services include, among other things, certain financial reporting, daily compliance and treasury services.
C. Distribution Agreement — The Commerce Funds’ shares are offered on a continuous basis through Goldman Sachs which acts as Distributor under the Distribution Agreement with The Commerce Funds. Goldman Sachs does not receive compensation from the Funds for these services.
D. Other Agreements — The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses (excluding interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) for all Funds (except The MidCap Growth Fund) to the extent that such expenses exceeded, on an annualized basis, 1.00%, 0.70%, 0.80%, 0.68%, 0.70%, 0.70% and 0.70% of the average net assets of The Growth, Value, Bond, Short-Term Government, National Tax-Free Intermediate Bond, Missouri Tax-Free Intermediate Bond and Kansas Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Funds, respectively.

In addition, the Funds are not obligated to reimburse the Adviser for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any. Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly and are disclosed in the Statements of Operations for the six months period ended April 30, 2022.
Pursuant to a Shareholder Administrative Services Plan adopted by the Trust’s Board of Trustees, the Funds may enter into agreements with service organizations, such as banks and financial institutions, which may include affiliates of the Adviser (“Service Organizations”), under which they will render shareholder administration support services. Servicing agreements entered into by the Funds will provide that the Service Organizations will render shareholder administrative support services to their customers who are the beneficial owners of shares of the Funds in consideration for a Fund’s payment of up to 0.15% (on an annualized basis) of the average daily net asset value of the shares of the Fund beneficially owned by such customers and held by the Service Organizations. Certain shareholder agreements entered into before November 17, 2015 may provide for payments of up to 0.25% of the average daily net asset value of the shares of the Fund beneficially owned by customers and held by a Service Organization.
E. Deferred Compensation Plan — Certain Trustees participate in a Deferred Compensation Plan, as amended and restated (the “Plan”), which allows eligible Trustees as described in the Plan to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the Trustees’ fees payable. Under the Plan, such Trustees have deferred fees treated as if they had been invested by The Commerce Funds in the shares of one or more Funds of the Trust. All amounts payable to the Trustees under the Plan are determined based on the performance of such Funds and are accrued monthly.

The difference between GAAP-basis and tax-basis unrealized gains (losses) are attributable primarily to wash sales and differences in the tax treatment of market discount accretion and premium amortization.
Commerce and GSAM have reviewed the Funds’ tax positions for all open tax years (the current and prior three fiscal years) and have concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Such open tax years remain subject to examination and adjustment by tax authorities.
The Funds’ risks include, but are not limited to, the following:
Credit Risk — The fixed income Funds are subject to credit risk because an issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security may be unable or unwilling to make interest and principal payments when due. A bond’s value could decline because of concerns about an issuer’s willingness to make such payments.
High Yield Risk — The Bond Fund and the Tax-Free Funds are subject to high yield risk. High yield securities are subject to greater levels of credit and liquidity risk. High yield securities are considered speculative with respect to an issuer’s ability to make principal and interest payments and may be more volatile than higher-rated securities of similar maturity.
Interest Rate Risks — The fixed income Funds are subject to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of the Fund’s portfolio will decline because of rising interest rates. The magnitude of this decline will often be greater for longer-term, fixed-income securities than shorter-term securities.
Investment Companies Risk — The Funds may invest, consistent with their respective investment objectives and strategies, in securities of other investment companies subject to statutory limitations prescribed by the Act. These limitations include a prohibition on any Fund acquiring more than 3% of the voting shares of any other investment company, and a prohibition on investing more than 5% of the Fund’s total assets in securities of any one investment company or more than 10% of its total assets in securities of all investment companies (except money market funds). The Funds will indirectly bear their proportionate share of any management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies.

7. OTHER RISKS (continued) | | |
LIBOR Risk — The London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) is used extensively in the U.S. and globally as a “benchmark” or “reference rate” for various commercial and financial contracts, including corporate and municipal bonds, bank loans, assetbacked and mortgage-related securities, interest rate swaps and other derivatives. For example, debt securities in which a Fund invests may pay interest at floating rates based on LIBOR or may be subject to interest caps or floors based on LIBOR. In addition, issuers of instruments in which a Fund invests may obtain financing at floating rates based on LIBOR, and a Fund may use leverage or borrowings based on LIBOR.
In July of 2017, the head of the UK Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) announced a desire to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. The FCA and ICE Benchmark Administrator announced that most LIBOR settings will no longer be published after December 31, 2021. On March 5, 2021, the administrator of LIBOR announced a delay in the phase out of the majority of the U.S. dollar LIBOR publications until June 30, 2023, with the remainder of LIBOR publications having ceased on December 31, 2021. The U.S. Federal Reserve, based on the recommendations of the New York Federal Reserve’s Alternative Reference Rate Committee (comprised of major derivative market participants and their regulators), has begun publishing SOFR that is intended to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR. Proposals for alternative reference rates for other currencies have also been announced or have already begun publication. Markets are slowly developing in response to these new reference rates. Uncertainty related to the liquidity impact of the change in rates, and how to appropriately adjust these rates at the time of transition, poses risks for the Funds. The effect of any changes to, or discontinuation of, LIBOR on the Funds will depend on, among other things, (1) existing fallback or termination provisions in individual contracts and (2) whether, how, and when industry participants develop and adopt new reference rates and fallbacks for both legacy and new instruments and contracts. The expected discontinuation of LIBOR could have a significant impact on the financial markets in general and may also present heightened risk to market participants, including public companies, investment advisers, investment companies, and broker-dealers. The risks associated with this discontinuation and transition will be exacerbated if the work necessary to effect an orderly transition to an alternative reference rate is not completed in a timely manner. For example, current information technology systems may be unable to accommodate new instruments and rates with features that differ from LIBOR. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the transition away from LIBOR on the Funds until new reference rates and fallbacks for both legacy and new instruments and contracts are commercially accepted and market practices become settled.
Liquidity Risk — The fixed income Funds are subject to liquidity risk. Each fixed income Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the time periods described in the Funds’ prospectus because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high number of redemption requests or other reasons. Liquidity risk may result from the lack of an active market or reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities, and may be magnified in a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income mutual funds may be higher than normal, causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity. Certain portfolio securities held by the fixed income funds may be less liquid than others, which may make those securities difficult or impossible to sell at an advantageous time or price.
Market Risk — Certain securities and other investments held by a Fund may experience increased volatility, illiquidity, or other potentially adverse effects in response to changing market conditions, inflation, changes in interest rates, lack of liquidity in the bond or equity markets, volatility. in the equity markets, market disruptions caused by local or regional events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness (including epidemics and pandemics) or’ other public health issues, recessions or other events or adverse investor sentiment. There is also a risk that a particular style of investing, such as growth, may underperform other styles of investing or the market generally.
General economic conditions and/or the activities of individual companies may cause the value of the securities in `a Fund to increase or decrease, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. Your shares at redemption may be worth more or less than your initial investment. The value of a security may decline due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in
74

7. OTHER RISKS (continued) | | |
interest or currency rates, adverse changes to credit markets or adverse investor sentiment generally. The value of a security may also decline due to factors that affect a particular industry or industries such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry. During a general downturn in the securities markets, multiple asset classes may decline in value simultaneously. Equity securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed income securities.
Credit ratings downgrades may also negatively affect securities held by a Fund. Even when markets perform well, there is no assurance that the investments held by a Fund will increase in value along with the broader market. In addition, market risk includes the risk that geopolitical events will disrupt the economy on a national or global level. For instance, local or regional events such as war, terrorism, market manipulation, government defaults, government shutdowns, natural/environmental disasters, the spread of infectious illness (including epidemics or pandemics) or other public health issues, recessions or other events can, all negatively impact the securities markets, which could cause the Funds to lose value. Any market disruptions could also prevent a Fund from executing advantageous investment decisions in a timely manner. Funds that have focused their investments in a region enduring geopolitical market disruption will face higher risks of loss. Thus, investors should closely monitor current market conditions to determine whether a specific Fund meets their individual financial needs and tolerance for risk.
Mid-Cap and Small-Cap Risk — The Growth, Value and MidCap Growth Funds are subject to the risks associated with investing in equity securities of mid- and/or small-cap companies. Investing in securities of smaller and mid-sized companies may be riskier than investing in larger, more established companies. Smaller and mid-sized companies are more vulnerable to adverse developments because of more limited product lines, markets or financial resources. Also, these stocks may trade less often and in limited volume compared to larger cap stocks trading on a national securities exchange. The prices of these stocks may be more volatile than the prices of larger company stocks. As a result, a Fund’s net asset value may be subject to rapid and substantial changes.
Non-Diversified Risk — The Growth Fund is classified as a non-diversified fund under the Act. Non-diversified funds typically hold fewer securities than diversified funds do. Consequently, the change in value of any one security may affect the overall value of a non-diversified portfolio more than it would a diversified portfolio.
Portfolio Concentration Risk — The Missouri Tax-Free Intermediate Bond and Kansas Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Funds invest a large percentage of their assets in obligations of issuers within Missouri and Kansas, respectively. Therefore, they are subject to possible concentration risks associated with economic, political or legal developments or industrial or regional matters specifically affecting those states.
Under normal market conditions, The Missouri Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund and The Kansas Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund invest at least 80% of their assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at the time of purchase) in Missouri and Kansas municipal securities, respectively, the income from which, in the opinion of bond counsel, is exempt from regular federal income tax, federal alternative minimum taxes and Missouri and Kansas state taxes, respectively. Alternatively, at least 80% of a Fund’s distributed income must be exempt from such taxes. For each of the Missouri and Kansas Tax-Free Funds, the actual payment of principal and interest on Missouri and Kansas municipal securities is dependent on the Missouri General Assembly and the Kansas legislature, respectively, allotting money each fiscal year for these payments.
The investments of The Growth, Value and MidCap Growth Funds may be concentrated in securities of technology companies. At times, securities of technology companies may experience significant price fluctuations. The Value Fund’s performance may be adversely affected by events affecting the financial sectors, if it invests a relatively large percentage of its assets in those sectors. The financial sectors can be significantly affected by changes in interest rates, government regulation, the rate of corporate and consumer debt defaulted, price competition, and the availability and cost of capital. The MidCap Growth Fund concentrates in mid-cap stocks. Investing in smaller and mid-sized companies may be riskier than investing in larger, more established companies.
The Bond and Short-Term Government Funds may invest 80% and 100%, respectively, of their total assets in mortgage-related securities and The Bond Fund may invest 80% of its total assets in asset-backed securities. Mortgage-backed securities, especially collateralized mortgage-backed securities, may be subject to risks that include price volatility, liquidity, and enhanced
75

7. OTHER RISKS (continued) | | |
sensitivity to interest rates. As a result, mortgage-backed securities may be more difficult to value and liquidate, if necessary. Mortgage-backed securities are also subject to prepayment risk, which may result in a decreased rate of return and a decline in the value of the securities. Asset-backed securities are dependent upon payment of the underlying consumer loans or receivables by individuals, and the certificate holder frequently has no recourse against the entity that originated the loans or receivables. Asset-backed securities have a greater risk of default during periods of economic downturn than other securities. Also, asset-backed securities may be less liquid than other securities and therefore more difficult to value and liquidate, if necessary.
Quantitative Model Risk — The Growth, Value and MidCap Growth Funds are subject to the risk that securities selected using quantitative models may perform differently from the market as a whole for many reasons, including the factors used in building the model and the weights placed on each factor, among others. The quantitative models used by the Adviser to manage The Growth, Value and MidCap Growth Funds may not perform as expected, particularly in volatile markets.
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees, officers, employees and agents are indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act and state law, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, in their experience, Commerce and GSAM believe the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.
Approval of Advisory Agreement — The Trustees oversee the management of the Trust, and review the investment performance and expenses of the Funds at regularly scheduled meetings held during the Funds’ fiscal year. In addition, the Trustees determine annually whether to reapprove and continue the Trust’s Advisory Agreement with the Adviser for the Funds (the “Advisory Agreement”).
The Advisory Agreement was most recently approved by the Trustees, including all of the Trustees who are not parties to the Advisory Agreement or “interested persons” (as such term is defined in the Act) of any party thereto (the “non-interested Trustees”), on November 16, 2021 (the “Annual Contract Meeting”).1
Prior to the Annual Contract Meeting, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) received written materials provided by the Adviser and their independent consultant, Broadridge Financial Services, Inc. (“Broadridge”), relating to the Trustees’ consideration of the Advisory Agreement. During the Annual Contract Meeting, the Trustees also received and considered the Adviser’s oral presentations and discussed the information that had been provided. In connection with their deliberations, the non-interested Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel regarding their responsibilities under applicable law and met separately in executive session with independent counsel without members of management present.
In evaluating the Advisory Agreement, the Trustees relied upon their knowledge, resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year, of the Adviser and its services and personnel. Both in meetings specifically dedicated to the review of the Advisory Agreement and meetings held during the year, the Trustees reviewed materials relating to the Adviser’s investment management services. Specifically, the Trustees reviewed, among other things, information relating to: (i) the terms

of the Advisory Agreement; (ii) the Funds’ investment performance over different time periods in comparison to the investment performance of mutual fund peer categories selected by Broadridge, a third-party provider of mutual fund data; (iii) the contractual investment advisory fees, the actual investment advisory fees (after expense reimbursements) and the total expenses borne by the Funds in comparison to those borne by mutual fund peer groups selected by Broadridge; (iv) the Adviser’s staffing for the Funds and the experience of the portfolio managers and other investment personnel; (v) the fees paid by the Funds to the Adviser and its affiliates for services, and the expenses incurred by them in connection with the provision of those services; (vi) the profitability of the Advisory Agreement to the Adviser, and a comparison of the Adviser’s profitability with publicly reported profitability information of other advisers; (vii) information about fees charged to institutional accounts for which an affiliate of the Adviser, Commerce Trust Company (“CTC”), performs services similar to those performed for the Funds; and (viii) potential economies of scale.
In connection with their approval of the Advisory Agreement for each of the Funds, the Trustees gave weight to various factors, but did not identify any single factor as controlling their decision. As part of their review, the Trustees considered the following factors:
Nature, Quality and Extent of Services — The Trustees reviewed the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Adviser to the Funds, considering each Fund’s investment objectives, strategies and shareholder base and the information received from management throughout the year. They considered the resources available to the Adviser and its key investment personnel and their experience and length of service to the Funds. They took into account the presentations provided by the Adviser’s investment personnel at each Board meeting, which included analyses of Fund operations, holdings and performance and detailed descriptions of the operation of the Equity Funds’ quantitative models. The Trustees also considered the Adviser’s compliance record, investment and liquidity risk management programs, effectiveness of oversight over the Funds’ other service providers, communications to and support services for shareholders, services provided to the Funds as one of their co-administrators, adherence to the Funds’ investment policies, execution of portfolio transactions, cybersecurity and business continuity programs (including the current work from home environment), selection of broker dealers and other similar factors.
The Trustees considered that the Adviser had invested significant resources in the Funds and provided capable and experienced portfolio management and compliance staff for the Funds’ operations. They took into account that the Adviser managed the Funds’ assets using a highly disciplined and analytic money management and credit research process and exhibited an ability to attract and retain high quality personnel. The Trustees considered the longevity and stability of the Funds’ portfolio managers serving the Funds and noted that the portfolio managers averaged over thirty years of experience in the portfolio management business. They also considered matters related to the Adviser’s communications, including providing clear and concise reports to the Board and updating the Trustees frequently on Fund compliance and performance issues. In addition, they noted that the Adviser and its affiliates had other client relationships with many of the Funds’ shareholders and provided them with other services through these relationships. In addition, the Trustees took into account the Adviser’s compliance record and compliance oversight of the Funds’ other service providers. Accordingly, the Trustees concluded that the nature, quality, and extent of the services provided by the Adviser to each Fund under the Advisory Agreement was appropriate and that the Funds would benefit from the Adviser’s continued service to them.
Performance of the Funds — The Trustees considered the short-term and long-term performance of each Fund, bearing in mind the performance information that they received at the Annual Contract Meeting and at various other Board meetings held throughout the year. They reviewed performance in light of the recent volatile market conditions and each Fund’s investment objectives and strategies, including risk and credit parameters, as applicable. They also considered and discussed the Broadridge and other information provided during the Annual Contract Meeting, which included comparisons of each Fund’s performance with that of its benchmark and with the performance of comparable funds identified by Broadridge and data on the risk and return measures of each Fund.

The Trustees evaluated the performance of the Trust’s three Equity Funds for various periods ended September 30, 2021. Among other things, they noted that the performance of each of the Equity Funds had fallen below its Lipper category median for the one-year period. The Trustees also considered that The Value Fund had exceeded the Lipper category median for the three-year and ten-year periods and underperformed the Lipper category median for the Quarter, year-to-date, and five-year periods; The Growth Fund had underperformed its Lipper category median for all periods except the ten-year period; and The MidCap Growth Fund underperformed its Lipper category for all periods except the YTD. The Trustees considered that the Equity Funds’ quantitative models appeared to be operating consistently with the Adviser’s descriptions and expectations thereof. The Trustees further considered that the Adviser had separately recommended, upon Board and shareholder approval, a change of The Growth Fund’s classification under the 1940 Act from “diversified” to “non-diversified” in order to manage the Fund consistent with desired portfolio weighting and the Fund’s risk/return profile. After considering the benchmark and performance information of the Equity Funds, the Trustees concluded that The MidCap Growth, The Growth and The Value Funds had each performed satisfactorily and in line with their quantitative investment strategies.
The Trustees examined the performance of the Trust’s Fixed Income Funds for various periods ended September 30, 2021. Among other things, they considered that The Bond Fund had met or exceeded its Lipper category median for the YTD, one-, five-, and 10-year periods and underperformed its Lipper category median for the Quarter and three-year periods; The Short Term Government Fund had underperformed its Lipper category for all periods, except the three- and ten-year periods; The National Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund had underperformed its Lipper category median for the YTD and one-year periods but had outperformed in the Quarter, three-, five- and ten-year periods; The Missouri Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund outperformed its Lipper category median for the Quarter, YTD, three-, five- and ten-year periods but underperformed in the one-year period; and The Kansas Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund outperformed its Lipper median category for all periods except the YTD and one-year periods. In considering the benchmark performance for each of the tax-free Funds, the Board considered that the benchmarks included municipal securities of states other than those in which the Tax-Free Funds were invested. After reviewing the performance information of the Fixed Income Funds, the Trustees concluded that The Bond, The Short-Term Government, The National Tax-Free Intermediate Bond and The Missouri Tax-Free Intermediate Bond, and The Kansas Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Funds had performed satisfactorily over most time periods.
Fund Fees and Expenses — The Trustees then examined the Funds’ advisory fees and total net operating expenses. They reviewed each Fund’s advisory fees and net expense ratios compared to similar funds as presented in the Broadridge information. They considered that the advisory fees for The Bond, The Short-Term Government, The Growth, The MidCap Growth, The Value, and The Missouri Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Funds were below their respective Broadridge peer group averages, and The National Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund and The Kansas Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund were above their respective Broadridge peer group averages. They also considered that the total net operating expenses for all Funds were equal or lower than their respective Broadridge peer group average. In addition, the Trustees considered the amount of assets in the Funds, the Funds’ share structure, the Adviser’s caps on total operating expenses for each of the Funds (except for The MidCap Growth Fund) and the reimbursements made by the Adviser to maintain those caps. The Trustees also considered the Broadridge expense versus one-year performance charts in determining that the Funds’ shareholders were generally receiving value for the services provided by the Adviser.
The Trustees took into account information provided at the Annual Contract Meeting that compared the Funds’ advisory fees to advisory fees charged by CTC, the Adviser’s affiliate, to similar institutional accounts managed by CTC personnel. The Trustees considered that these accounts were not managed by the Adviser, but some of the Adviser’s same investment personnel provided advisory services to CTC. In certain instances, the fees charged were lower than the fees charged to the Funds and in other instances the fees were about the same or higher. Specifically, the Trustees noted that The MidCap Growth and The Short-Term Government Funds generally paid higher management fees than CTC’s similar institutional accounts; The Growth and The Bond Funds generally paid management fees in the middle range as compared to CTC’s similar institutional

accounts; and The Value Fund generally paid lower management fees than CTC’s similar institutional accounts. The Trustees did not review similar comparative fee information for The Tax-Free Funds because the Adviser and CTC did not offer investment services to comparable institutional accounts. The Trustees also noted that the Adviser provided significant additional services for the Funds that its affiliate did not provide to non-mutual fund clients, including but not limited to administrative services, regulatory compliance support and testing, Board support, oversight of the Funds’ other service providers, risk management monitoring and various other services, and, that in servicing the Funds, the Adviser assumed legal risks that its affiliate did not assume in servicing many of its similar clients.
Costs of Services and Profits Realized by the Adviser — The Board examined the Adviser’s cost of providing advisory services to the Funds, both on a pre-marketing and post-marketing cost basis, as well as its profitability. The Trustees considered that the Adviser appeared to have a rigorous and consistent program in place to control Fund expenses and noted that all eight of the Funds had total net operating expenses equal to or under their respective Broadridge peer group averages. They considered the Adviser’s profitability in light of the profitability of other investment advisers’ publicly-reported profitability margins and took into account that profitability varied significantly based on an asset manager’s business model, products, services and other factors, making comparisons somewhat unreliable. Based on its review of the foregoing information, and in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board concluded that the profits realized by the Adviser supported the renewal of the Advisory Agreement.
Economies of Scale — The Trustees also considered that the Funds (other than The Growth and The Value Funds) had breakpoints in their respective advisory fee schedules. In addition, they considered that the Adviser was reimbursing expenses to certain of the Funds to keep them within their fee caps.
Fall-Out Benefits — The Trustees further considered that the Adviser benefitted from its relationship with the Funds through, among other things, its contract as a Co-Administrator of the Funds, and the Funds’ contribution to the scale of the Adviser’s advisory business. The Trustees noted that they received regular, quarterly reports on the Adviser’s soft dollar program and that its program was in compliance with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. They considered that the Adviser did not “pay up” for soft dollar trades and had a system in place to test for best execution, which was regularly reviewed by the Board.
Conclusion — The Trustees reviewed and discussed the information that had been submitted to them in connection with the reapproval of the Advisory Agreement. They gave weight to various factors but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. The Trustees considered the Broadridge comparative information with respect to Fund performance, fees and profitability of the Adviser, Fund assets levels, the Fund’s shareholder base and distribution model and Commerce’s relationship with and services to the shareholders. They concluded that Commerce had provided value to shareholders at a reasonable price and that Fund performance was generally competitive. After further discussion, the Trustees concluded that the investment advisory fees paid by the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided by the Adviser, Fund performance, the Adviser’s costs and the Funds’ current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels as well as the fallout benefits to the Adviser. For these reasons, the Board determined that the Advisory Agreement should be reapproved and continued.
Subsequent events after the Statement of Assets and Liabilities date have been evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued. Commerce and GSAM have concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Fund Expenses – Six Month Period Ended April 30, 2022 (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Funds you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; shareholder servicing fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2021 through April 30, 2022, which represents a period of 181 days in a 365-day year.
Actual Expenses — The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you 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” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ 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 funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as exchange fees, but shareholders of other funds may incur such costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Impact of Russian Invasion of Ukraine (Unaudited)
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has negatively affected the global economy and has resulted in significant disruptions in financial markets and increased macroeconomic uncertainty. In addition, governments around the world have responded to Russia’s invasion by imposing economic sanctions and export controls on certain industry sectors, companies and individuals in or associated with Russia. Russia has imposed its own restrictions against investors and countries outside Russia and has proposed additional measures aimed at non-Russian-owned businesses. Businesses in the U.S. and globally have experienced shortages in materials and increased costs for transportation, energy and raw materials due, in part, to the negative effects of the war on the global economy. The escalation or continuation of the war between Russia and Ukraine or other hostilities presents heightened risks relating to cyber-attacks, the frequency and volume of failures to settle securities transactions, supply chain disruptions, inflation, as well as the potential for increased volatility in commodity, currency and other financial markets. The extent and duration of the war, sanctions and resulting market disruptions, as well as the potential adverse consequences for the Funds operations are difficult to predict.

The Commerce Funds
The Growth Fund:
The Fund is subject to market risk so that the value of the securities in which it invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular industry sectors and/or general economic conditions. The Fund is non-diversified. The Growth Fund invested 44.8% and 43.6% in the information technology sector, and 17.1% and 18% in the consumer discretionary sector, as of April 30, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively. Investments in technology companies, which may produce or use products or services that prove commercially unsuccessful or become obsolete, may be subject to greater price volatility than securities of companies in other sectors.
Additionally, companies engaged in the consumer discretionary sector are affected by fluctuations in supply and demand and changes in consumer preferences, social trends and marketing campaigns. Changes in consumer spending as a result of world events, political and economic conditions, commodity price volatility, changes in exchange rates, imposition of import controls, increased competition, depletion of resources and labor relations also may adversely affect these companies.
The Fund is also subject to quantitative model risk, which is the risk that securities selected using quantitative models may perform differently from the market as a whole for many reasons, including the factors used in building the model and the weights placed on each factor, among others. The quantitative model used by the Adviser to manage the Fund may not perform as expected, particularly in volatile markets.
The Value Fund:
The Fund is subject to market risk so that the value of the securities in which it invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular industry sectors and/or general economic conditions. The Value Fund invested 17.4% and 21% in the financials sector and 15.7% and 14.5% in the health care sector, as of April 30, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively. The Value Fund’s performance may be adversely affected by events affecting the financial sectors, if it invests a relatively large percentage of its assets in those sectors. The financial sectors can be significantly affected by changes in interest rates, government regulation, the rate of corporate and consumer debt defaulted, price competition, and the availability and cost of capital. Factors such as extensive government regulation, restrictions on government reimbursement for medical expenses, rising costs of medical products, services and facilities, pricing pressure, an increased emphasis on outpatient services, limited number of products, industry innovation, costs associated with obtaining and protecting patents, product liability and other claims, changes in technologies and other market developments can affect companies in the health care sector. The Fund is also subject to quantitative model risk, which is the risk that securities selected using quantitative models may perform differently from the market as a whole for many reasons, including the factors used in building the model and the weights placed on each factor, among others. The quantitative model used by the Adviser to manage the Fund may not perform as expected, particularly in volatile markets.
The MidCap Growth Fund:
The Fund is subject to market risk so that the value of the securities in which it invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular industry sectors and/or general economic conditions. Investments in technology companies, which may produce or use products or services that prove commercially unsuccessful or become obsolete, may be subject to greater price volatility than securities of companies in other sectors. The MidCap Growth Fund invested 33.6% and 31.5% in the information technology sector, 16.5% and 14.9% in the industrials sector and 16.1% and 17.5% in the health care sector, as of April 30, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively. Changes in government regulation, world events and economic conditions may adversely affect companies in the industrials sector. In addition, these companies are at risk for environmental and product liability damage claims. Also, commodity price volatility, changes in exchange rates, imposition of import controls, increased competition, depletion of resources, technological developments and labor relations could adversely affect the companies in this sector. Additionally, factors such as extensive government regulation, restrictions on government reimbursement for medical expenses, rising costs of medical products, services and facilities, pricing pressure, an increased

THE COMMERCE FUNDS
emphasis on outpatient services, limited number of products, industry innovation, costs associated with obtaining and protecting patents, product liability and other claims, changes in technologies and other market developments can affect companies in the health care sector. The Fund invests in small- and mid-capitalization securities. Generally, smaller and mid-sized companies are more vulnerable to adverse developments because of more limited product lines, markets or financial resources. As a result, the securities of smaller and mid-sized companies may involve greater risks than those associated with larger, more established companies and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic trading and price movements. The Fund is also subject to quantitative model risk, which is the risk that securities selected using quantitative models may perform differently from the market as a whole for many reasons, including the factors used in building the model and the weights placed on each factor, among others. The quantitative model used by the Adviser to manage the Fund may not perform as expected, particularly in volatile markets.
The Bond Fund:
Investments in fixed income securities are subject to the risks associated with debt securities including credit and interest rate risk. The guarantee on U.S. government securities applies only to the underlying securities of the Fund if held to maturity and not to the value of the Fund’s shares. Mortgage-backed securities, especially collateralized mortgage-backed securities, may be subject to risks that include price volatility, liquidity and enhanced sensitivity to interest rates. Asset-backed securities may be less liquid than other securities and therefore more difficult to value and liquidate, if necessary.
The Short-Term Government Fund:
Investments in fixed income securities are subject to the risks associated with debt securities including credit and interest rate risk. The guarantee on U.S. government securities applies only to the underlying securities of the Fund if held to maturity and not to the value of the Fund’s shares. Mortgage-backed securities, especially collateralized mortgage-backed securities, may be subject to risks that include price volatility, liquidity and enhanced sensitivity to interest rates.
The National Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund:
Investments in fixed income securities are subject to the risks associated with debt securities including credit and interest rate risk. Investments in municipal securities can be significantly affected by political changes as well as uncertainties in the municipal market related to taxation or legislative changes. The Fund’s investments may subject shareholders to the federal alternative minimum tax and state income taxes.
The Missouri Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund:
Investments in fixed income securities are subject to the risks associated with debt securities including credit and interest rate risk. The Fund invests its assets predominately in Missouri bonds. The actual payment of principal and interest on these bonds is dependent on the Missouri General Assembly allotting money each fiscal year for these payments. Investments in municipal securities can be significantly affected by political changes as well as uncertainties in the municipal market related to taxation or legislative changes. In addition, the Fund’s investments may subject shareholders to federal alternative minimum tax. The investment income from this Fund may be subject to state income taxes.
The Kansas Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund:
Investments in fixed income securities are subject to the risks associated with debt securities including credit and interest rate risk. The Fund invests its assets predominately in Kansas bonds. The actual payment of principal and interest on these bonds is dependent on the Kansas legislature allotting money each fiscal year for these payments. Investments in municipal securities can be significantly affected by political changes as well as uncertainties in the municipal market related to taxation or legislative changes. In addition, the Fund’s investments may subject shareholders to federal alternative minimum tax. The investment income from this Fund may be subject to state income taxes.
