Class Name Costs of a $10,000 investment Costs paid as a percentage of a $10,000 investment
Class A $446 4.05%

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM FOR THE SIX MONTH PERIOD AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?

For the 6-month period ended January 31, 2026, the Fund returned a 10.48% (this number includes a sales load of 5.75% as well as Fund expenses and change in Market Value) for Class A outperforming its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index. The Fund's primary objective is growth of capital. The S&P 500 posted a gain of 10.13% while the Dow Jones Industrial Average posted a gain of 11.72% during the reporting period. A performance chart comparing this class to the S&P 500 Index is further down in this report.

WHAT FACTORS INFLUENCED PERFORMANCE?

The Fund is invested primarily in large cap, growth-oriented domestic common stocks. The Fund's largest sector allocation is Semiconductor Capital Equipment at 14.78% of the portfolio, and the largest holding in the portfolio is Teradyne, Inc. (at 14.78% of the Total Net Assets), the world"s largest producer of automated test equipment for semiconductors. The table below shows how the top 3 and bottom 3 stocks performed and how they contribute to the performance of the portfolio. As of this report, as stated in our Key Fund Statistics, our portfolio contained 27 stocks. The S&P 500 Index is a broad index that contains 500 stocks whereas the Dow Jones Industrial Average is an Index that contains 30 stocks. As a diversified portfolio, we follow strict guidelines to maintain our diversification which in turn, can help protect your assets in case of a sudden downturn in a sector or multiple sectors. Sometimes performance can be affected negatively by diversification regulations. This year your Fund was required to sell some stock in order to meet the IRS's diversification standards which negatively affected the performance. Keep in mind, major indexes, such as the two mentioned above, may or may not have to follow the same set of standards on diversification to manage the product and, unlike the Fund, do not have any expenses or overhead.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

American Growth Fund, Inc. Series One ("Series One") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Series One is a diversified, open-end management investment company. Series One follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 "Financial Services - Investment Companies." Series One's primary investment objectives are growth of capital. Series One's investment advisor is Investment Research Corporation (IRC). Series One offers Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class D shares. Class D shares are available to shareholders of accounts established prior to March 1, 1996. Class A and Class D have a maximum sales charge (load) imposed on purchases (as a percentage of offering price) of 5.75%. Purchases of Class A and Class D shares in amounts of $1,000,000 or more which are not subject to an initial sales charge generally will be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0% of amounts redeemed within the first year of purchase. Class B has a maximum deferred sales charge (Contingent Deferred Sales Charge) as a percentage of original purchase price or redemption proceeds, whichever is lower, for the first 2 years of 5%, 3rd & 4th years - 4%, 5th yr. - 3%, 6th yr. - 2%, 7th yr. - 1%.Class C has a maximum deferred sales charge as a percentage of original purchase price or redemption proceeds, whichever is lower, of 1% for the first year. All classes of shares have identical rights to earnings, assets and voting privileges, except that each class has its own distribution and/or service plan and expenses directly attributable to that class and exclusive voting rights with respect to matters affecting that class.

Reclassifications - Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that certain components of net assets be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets nor net asset value per share. For the year ended July 31, 2025, the following reclassifications were made:

Series One
Distributable earnings (loss) Paid-In Capital
$802,118 $(802,118)

Cash and cash equivalents - During the ordinary course of business, the Fund holds cash balances at a major financial institution that are held to meet short-term liquidity requirements, rather than for investment purposes. The cash balances may exceed federally insured limits. The Fund has not experienced losses on these accounts, and management believes the Fund is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Investment Valuation - Investment securities traded on the New York Stock Exchange or other stock exchange approved for this purpose by the Board of Directors will be valued on the basis of the closing sale thereof on such stock exchange, or, if such sale is lacking, at the mean between closing bid and asked prices on such day. If no bid and asked prices are quoted for such day or information as to New York or other approved exchange transactions is not readily available, the security will be valued by reference to recognized composite quotations or such other method as the Board of Directors in good faith deem will reflect its fair market value. Securities not traded on any stock exchange but for which market quotations are readily available are valued on the basis of the mean of the last bid and asked prices. Short-term securities are valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices or by such other method as the Board of Directors determine to reflect their fair market value. The Board of Directors in good faith determine the manner of ascertaining the fair market value of other securities and assets.

Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses - Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated daily to

American Growth Fund, Inc. - Series One - Financial Statements and Financial Highlights - January 31, 2026 - Page 11

Notes to Financial Statements

American Growth Fund, Inc.

(Unaudited)

each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

Federal Income Taxes - No provision for federal income nor excise taxes have been made because the Fund intends to comply with the provisions of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to shareholders.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is "more likely than not" to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on the open tax years 2023-2025 and expected to be taken in the Fund's 2026 tax returns. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal, Colorado State and foreign jurisdictions where the Fund makes significant investments; however the Fund is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09 ("ASU 2023-09"), Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which amends quantitative and qualitative income tax disclosure requirements in order to increase disclosure consistency, bifurcate income tax information by jurisdiction and remove information that is no longer beneficial. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. Fund management has evaluated the impact of ASU 2023-09 and determined that adoption will not have a material effect on the Fund's financial statements, as the Fund qualifies as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M and generally does not incur significant income tax expense.

Classification of Distributions to Shareholders - The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from its ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or realized gain was recorded by the Fund.

Security Transactions and Related Investment Income - Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the investments are purchased or sold (trade date). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments are reported on an identified cost basis which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Securities Valuations - As described in note 1, the Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of most of its investments on a recurring basis. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:

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

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs 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, represent the Fund'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.

American Growth Fund, Inc. - Series One - Financial Statements and Financial Highlights - January 31, 2026 - Page 12

Notes to Financial Statements

American Growth Fund, Inc.

(Unaudited)

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 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 following is a summary of the inputs used, as of January 31, 2026, in valuing the Fund's assets carried at fair value:

Series One
Equity Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Common Stock $20,352,320 - - $20,352,320

The industry classifications of Level 1 investments are included in the Schedule of Investment (Item 6 - Investments of Form N-CSRS).

There were no transfers in to or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 for the six months ended January 31, 2026. Transfers are recognized at the end of the reporting period.

Segment Reporting - The Fund has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). Adoption of the standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect the Fund's financial position or the results of its operations. An operating segment is defined in Topic 280 as a component of a public entity that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the public entity's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and has discrete financial information available. The Fund operates as a single reportable segment, an investment company whose investment objective is included in Note 1. In connection with the adoption of ASU 2023-07, Timothy Taggart has been designated as the Fund's CODM, who is responsible for assessing the performance of the Fund's single segment and deciding how to allocate the segment's resources. To perform this function, the CODM reviews the information in the Fund's Financial Statements.

4. Underwriting, Investment Advisory Contracts, Service Fees and Other Related Parties

Under the investment advisory contract with IRC, the advisor receives annual compensation for investment advice, computed and paid monthly, for Series One equal to 1% of the first $30 million of the Fund's average annual net assets and 0.75% such assets in excess of $30 million. Series One pays their own operating expenses. For the six months ended January 31, 2026, the Fund accrued $99,297 of Investment advisory fees with $18,310 remaining payable.

Class B and Class C shares each are subject to annual service and distribution fees of 1.00% of average daily net assets. Class A shares are subject to annual service and distribution fees no greater than 0.30% of average daily net assets.

For the six months ended January 31, 2026 commissions and sales charges paid by investors on the purchase of Series One Class A and D shares totaled $7,899 of which $1,576, was retained by World Capital Brokerage, Inc. ("WCB"), an affiliated broker/dealer which serves as the underwriter and distributor of the Series One. Sales charges advanced to broker/dealers by WCB on sales of Series One Class B and C shares totaled $1,115, of which $0, was retained by WCB. For the six months ended January 31, 2026, WCB received contingent deferred sales charges of $162 upon redemption Series One to WCB for brokerage commission on securities transactions.

Certain officers of Series One are also officers of WCB and IRC.

For the six months ended January 31, 2026, under an agreement with IRC, Series One was charged $84,563, for the costs and expenses related to employees of IRC who provided administrative, clerical and accounting services to the Fund and $44,044, to provide the daily fund accounting services. In addition, Series One was charged $1,000, by an affiliated company of IRC for the rental of office space.

5. Federal Income Tax Matters

Dividends paid by Series One from net investment income and distributions of net realized short-term capital gains are, for federal income tax purposes, taxable as ordinary income to shareholders.

Series One distributes net realized capital gains, if any, to its shareholders at least annually, if not offset by capital loss carryovers. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences are primarily due to the differing treatment of net operating losses, foreign currency and tax allocations. Accordingly, these permanent differences in the character of income and distributions between financial statements and tax basis have been reclassified to paid-in capital.

At July 31, 2025, Series One for federal income tax purposes had no available capital loss carryover.

Net capital losses incurred after October 31, and within the taxable year, are deemed to arise on the first business day of Series One's next taxable year.

At July 31, 2025, Series One did not have any post-October losses.

Series One had $2,243,220 & $1,413,273 of long term capital gain distributions paid during the year ended July 31, 2025 and the year ended July 31, 2024, respectively.

(Unaudited)

As of July 31, 2025 the components of accumulated gains (loss) on a tax-basis for Series One was as follows:

Long Capital Gains $ 2,575,526)
Unrealized appreciation 12,648,685)
Total accumulated gain $ 15,224,211)

6. Senior Derivative Rules

The Fund has adopted rules regarding the engagement of utilizing derivatives. Currently, the Fund does not utilize derivatives as an investment vehicle.

7. Fair value determination and readily available market quotations.

The Fund has adopted rules regarding the fair value determination and has determined in accordance with the Fund's Form N1-A these methodologies will be reviewed/tested in conjunction with the annual review of the Fund's Form N1-A. For purposes of section 2(a)(41) of the Act (15 U.S.C. 80a-2(a)(41)), a market quotation is readily available only when that quotation is a quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments that the Fund can access at the measurement date, provided that a quotation will not be readily available if it is not reliable.

8. Liquidity

As you are aware, Series One invests primarily in common stocks and securities convertible into common stock. These securities are issued by large companies, and to a lesser extent, small and mid-sized companies. Your Fund generally does not invest in illiquid securities. There are times where the Fund has sold shares of stock in order to pay for certain required services such as the annual audit performed by an independent outside auditor or legal fees. The Fund may also sell shares of stock when orders are placed to redeem shares. When either of these situations happen, your Investment Committee generally will first sell those holdings that they believe are currently, or in the future may, underperform in the market or, alternatively, they may sell holdings in sectors that the committee believes may over-weight that sector when looking at the portfolio as a whole to maintain or improve diversification.

9. Subsequent Events

In preparing these financial statements, the Fund evaluated and found no events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date these financial statements were issued.

Item 11 - Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Contract.

BOARD APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

Meeting of the Board of Directors Held on January 23, 2026

At a regular meeting of the Board of Directors (the "Board") held on January 23, 2026 (the "meeting"), the Board, assisted by legal counsel representing the American Growth Fund, Inc. and the Independent Directors, including a majority of the Directors who are not interested persons of the Board (the "Independent Directors"), considered the approval for another year of the investment advisory agreement (the "Agreement") between Investment Research Corporation (the "Advisor") and the Trust for Series One.

In connection with its review and approval of the Agreement for another year at the Meeting, the Independent Directors participating considered materials furnished by the Advisor, including information about, but not limited to, the Advisor's personnel, operations and financial condition. The Independent Directors also submitted questions to the Advisor prior to the Meeting. At the Meeting, representatives from the Advisor, presented information to the Board regarding the Advisor and the Fund, discussed with the Independent Directors all information provided, and responded to questions from the Board.

Matters considered by the Board, including the Independent Directors, at the Meeting in connection with its re-approval of the Agreement included the following:

Performance. The Board reviewed the Fund's investment performance reports, which compared the performance of the Fund with several other mutual funds with generally similar investment strategies, at least in part, over various time periods, as well as with relevant benchmarks, and discussed these reports with

American Growth Fund, Inc. - Series One - N-CSRS - January 31, 2026 - Page 10

representatives of the Advisor. The Board considered the Fund's comparative performance over short-term and longer-term time periods. The relative performance of the Series compared to peer funds and benchmarks over recent time periods comparable mixed returns on most data points and was deemed satisfactory given the nature of the Fund, did not reflect an unreasonable gap in performance and that the Advisor had presented substantive information which was discussed in length at the meeting.

Costs of Services and Profitability. The Board reviewed and considered the contractual annual advisory fee paid by the Fund to the Advisor, in light of the extent and quality of the advisory services provided by the Advisor to the Fund. The Board received and considered information including a comparison of the Fund's contractual advisory fee rate with those of peer funds. The Board also reviewed and considered the total expense ratio for the Fund, alongside comparative total expense ratio information for peer funds. In doing so, the Board also considered the relative size of the Fund compared to the peer funds.

In addition, the Board, including the Independent Directors, specifically considered the profits realized by the Advisor and its affiliates, based in part on the Advisor financial information presented at the meeting and information regarding amounts paid to the Advisor and its affiliates. The Board also reviewed other benefits realized by the Advisor and its affiliates arising from its relationship with the Trust, and the profitability of the Fund to the Advisor and its affiliates.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services under the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the Fund under the Agreement. The Trustees reviewed certain background materials supplied by the Advisor in its presentation, including its Form ADVs.

The Board reviewed and considered the Advisor's investment advisory personnel, its history as an asset manager, and its performance and the amount of assets currently under management by the Advisor and its affiliated entities. The Board also reviewed the research and decision-making processes utilized by the Advisor, including the methods adopted to seek to achieve compliance with the investment objective, and policies of the Fund.

The Board considered the background and experience of the Advisor's management in connection with the Fund, including reviewing the qualifications, backgrounds, and responsibilities of the parties primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund and the extent of the resources devoted to research and analysis of actual and potential investments.

Economies of Scale. After discussion, it was the consensus of the Board and the Independent Directors that the Fund had not reached an asset level where any material economies of scale were being realized by the Advisor that could be shared with the Fund. The Board discussed the economies of scale for the Fund and

the fact that while economies of scale is not something that can be applied to the Fund now given the small asset bases, it would be revisited at a later date.

Other Benefits to the Advisor. The Board reviewed and considered any other incidental benefits derived or to be derived by the Advisor from its relationship with the Fund.

In reviewing the factors above, the Board concluded that no single factor was identified by the Directors to be determinative as the principal factor in whether to renew the Agreement. The Board concluded that:

  • The nature and quality of services provided to the Fund and its shareholders by IRC were reasonable and adequate;
  • The profitability of IRC and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund was not unreasonable with respect to the Fund;
  • There were no material economies of scale or other incidental benefits accruing to the Advisor in connection with its relationship with the Fund;
  • Performance of the Fund, as addressed above; The Board considered substantive information which was discussed in length at the meeting regarding the

American Growth Fund, Inc. - Series One - N-CSRS - January 31, 2026 - Page 11

mixed performance against its peer group and under performance against market indexes for the Fund, as well as, measures aimed at improving performance; and

The Directors gave consideration to the circumstances, which positively affected its decision to reapprove the Investment Advisory Agreement.

Based on the Board's' deliberations and their evaluation of the information described above, the Directors, including all of the Independent Directors, concluded that the Advisor's compensation for investment advisory services is consistent with the best interests of its shareholders and accordingly approved continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreement for an additional period.
