| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| December 31, 2025 |
| 1. | ORGANIZATION |
Boyar Value Fund, Inc. (the Fund) was incorporated on February 28, 1997 under the laws of the State of Maryland and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end, diversified management investment company. The Funds investment objective is long-term capital appreciation.
Under the Funds organizational documents, its officers and Board of Directors (the Board) are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund. However, based on experience, the Fund expects that risk of loss to be remote.
| 2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies.
Segment Reporting - An operating segment is defined 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 entitys 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 CODM is comprised of the portfolio manager and Chief Financial Officer of the Trust. The Fund operates as a single operating segment. The Funds income, expenses, assets, changes in net assets resulting from operations and performance are regularly monitored and assessed as a whole by the CODM responsible for oversight functions of the Fund, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.
Accounting Pronouncement - The Fund adopted the FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements and modifies or eliminates certain existing disclosure provisions. The amendments in this ASU are intended to address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information and to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The Funds adoption of ASU 2023-09 did not have a material impact on the Funds financial statements.

Securities valuation - Securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last reported sale price at the close of the regular trading session of the primary exchange on the business day the value is being determined, or in the case of securities listed on NASDAQ at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. In the absence of a sale such securities shall be valued at the mean between the current bid and ask prices on the day of valuation. Short-term debt obligations having 60 days or less remaining until maturity, at time of purchase, may be valued at amortized cost.
The Fund may hold securities, such as private investments, interests in commodity pools, other non-traded securities or temporarily illiquid securities, for which market quotations are not readily available or are determined to be unreliable. These securities are valued using the fair value procedures approved by the Board. The Board has designated the adviser as its valuation designee (the Valuation Designee) to execute these procedures. The Board may also enlist third party consultants such a valuation specialist at a public accounting firm, valuation consultant or financial officer of a security issuer on an as-needed basis to assist the Valuation Designee in determining a security-specific fair value. The Board is responsible for reviewing and approving fair value methodologies utilized by the Valuation Designee, approval of which shall be based upon whether the Valuation Designee followed the valuation procedures established by the Board.
Fair Valuation Process - The applicable investments are valued by the Valuation Designee pursuant to valuation procedures established by the Board. For example, fair value determinations are required for the following securities: (i) securities for which market quotations are insufficient or not readily available on a particular business day (including securities for which there is a short and temporary lapse in the provision of a price by the regular pricing source); (ii) securities for which, in the judgment of the Valuation Designee, the prices or values available do not represent the fair value of the instrument; factors which may cause the Valuation Designee to make such a judgment include, but are not limited to, the following: only a bid price or an asked price is available; the spread between bid and asked prices is substantial; the frequency of sales; the thinness of the market; the size of reported trades; and actions of the securities markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading; (iii) securities determined to be illiquid; and (iv) securities with respect to which an event that affects the value thereof has occurred (a significant event) since the closing prices were established on the principal exchange on which they are traded, but prior to a Funds calculation of its net asset value. Specifically, interests in commodity pools or managed futures pools are valued on a daily basis by reference to the closing market prices of each futures contract or other asset held by a pool, as adjusted for pool expenses. Restricted or illiquid securities, such as private investments or non-traded securities are valued based upon the current bid for the security from two or more independent dealers or other parties reasonably familiar with the facts and circumstances of the security (who should take into consideration all relevant factors as may be appropriate under the circumstances). If a current bid from such independent dealers or other independent parties is unavailable, the Valuation Designee shall determine the fair value of such security using the following factors: (i) the type of security; (ii) the cost at date of purchase; (iii) the size and nature of the Funds holdings; (iv) the discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase and
9
| BOYAR VALUE FUND, INC. |
| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) |
| December 31, 2025 |
subsequent thereto; (v) information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security; (vi) the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security and the existence of any registration rights; (vii) how the yield of the security compares to similar securities of companies of similar or equal creditworthiness; (viii) the level of recent trades of similar or comparable securities; (ix) the liquidity characteristics of the security; (x) current market conditions; and (xi) the market value of any securities into which the security is convertible or exchangeable.
The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of all of its investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and 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 may include quoted prices for the identical instrument in an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and based on the best information available.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following table summarizes the inputs used as of December 31, 2025 for the Funds investments measured at fair value:

Security Transactions and Related Income - Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains or losses from sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders - Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually. Distributable net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and distributed annually. Dividends and distributions paid and distributed to shareholders are recorded on ex-dividend date.
Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These book/tax differences are considered either temporary (i.e., deferred losses) or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their Federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations or net asset values per share of the Fund.
Federal Income Taxes - The Fund intends to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for Federal income tax is required. The Fund will recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is more likely than not to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Funds tax positions and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years ended December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024, or expected to be taken in the Funds December 31, 2025 year-end tax returns. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal, Maryland and foreign jurisdictions where the Fund makes significant investments. 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.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP 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 income and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| 3. | INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS |

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement
The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) requires the Board of Directors, including a majority of Directors who are not interested persons of The Boyar Value Fund, Inc. (the Fund), as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the Independent Directors), to annually consider the continuance of the Funds investment advisory agreement with its investment adviser, Boyar Asset Management, Inc. (the Adviser) (the Advisory Agreement).
At a Board meeting held on May 20, 2025 the Funds Board of Directors (the Board), including all the Independent Directors, approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement. As required by the 1940 Act, the Board requested and the Adviser provided such information as the Board deemed to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Agreement. The Independent Directors were informed that, in selecting the Adviser and approving the continuance of the Advisory Agreement, they are authorized to engage such experts as they consider appropriate, including counsel to the Independent Directors.
The Independent Directors, both prior to the meeting and other meetings held during the current year, received materials relating to the Advisers investment services under the Advisory Agreement. These materials included information on (i) the investment performance of the Fund over various periods of time compared to the performance of a peer group of mutual funds, which consisted of the Fund and other large-cap value funds (the Peer Group), as classified by Morningstar and objectively selected by the Adviser as comparable to the Fund based upon criteria previously specified by the Independent Directors and used in prior years, and to the S&P Composite 1500 Value Index the Funds benchmark index (the Benchmark Index); (ii) sales and redemption data with respect to the Fund; (iii) the general investment outlook in the markets in which the Fund invests; (iv) arrangements with respect to the distribution of the Funds shares; and (v) the overall nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Adviser.
As part of the review of the continuance of the Advisory Agreement, the Board requested, and the Adviser provided, additional information in order to evaluate the quality of their services and the reasonableness of their fees under the Advisory Agreement. The Independent Directors reviewed information, which included data comparing: (i) the Funds management fee and advisory fee (individually and together), 12b-1 fees, and other non-management expenses, to those incurred by the Peer Group; (ii) the Funds average expense ratio to those of its Peer Group (both before and after waivers); (iii) the Funds investment performance over various time periods to the mean performance of the Peer Group and the Funds benchmark index; (iv) the Advisers financial results and condition, including an oral discussion of the Advisers profitability from the services that have been performed for the Fund; (v) the Advisers current investment management staffing; and (vi) the Funds potential for achieving economies of scale. In support of its review of the statistical information, the Board was provided with a description of the objective non-
17
| BOYAR VALUE FUND, INC. |
| ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)(Continued) |
| December 31, 2025 |
performance-based methodology used by the Adviser to determine the Peer Group to prepare its information and the rationale for including both Peer Group, which was consistent with that used in previous years.
The Board considered several matters in connection with its renewal of the Advisory Agreement including investment performance; personnel and methods; fees and expenses; nature and quality of other services; other benefits; and economies of scale. However, the Board did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling, and this summary does not detail all the matters that were considered. The Independent Directors also met in executive session to deliberate in their considerations of the Advisory Agreement.
The nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Adviser. In considering the renewal of the Advisory Agreement the Board considered the nature, extent and quality of services that the Adviser provided to the Fund, including the Advisers personnel and resources. The Board reviewed the services the Adviser provided in serving as investment adviser and the backgrounds of the personnel providing services to the Fund, including portfolio managers. They also reviewed information provided regarding trading and brokerage practices, risk management and compliance and regulatory matters. The Board also considered the structure of portfolio manager compensation. Based on the materials received from the Adviser, the Board concluded that the services the Adviser provided were satisfactory.
The investment performance of the Fund and Adviser. The Board reviewed performance information for the Fund compared to the Benchmark Index and Peer Group for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year and since inception periods ended April 30, 2025. The Board reviewed the Funds total returns compared to the total returns of its Peer Group and the Benchmark Index. The Board considered the performance of the Fund against the Peer Group and Benchmark Index. The Board also received information on the construction of the Funds Peer Group. Based on the materials provided to the Board and the presentations received from the Adviser, the Board, in reliance on such information, concluded that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory.
The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Fund. The Board reviewed the Funds contractual advisory fee and expense ratio taking into account the Funds net asset size, and reviewed information comparing the advisory fee and expense ratio to those of the Funds Peer Group. The Board discussed the level of work involved in the Advisers management and oversight of the Fund and the other services that the Adviser provided to the Fund. The Board considered the nature and scope of the services provided by the Adviser, including supervision of outside service providers. In light of the nature, quality and extent of services the Adviser provided, the Board concluded that the Funds advisory fee was appropriate. The Board discussed the Funds Expense Limitation Agreement with the Adviser, and considered the Advisers past fee waivers with respect to the Fund.
The Board also compared the fees paid by the Fund to fees paid by other clients of the Adviser, and the Board considered the similarities and differences in the services received by such other clients as compared to the services received by the Fund. Following these comparisons and upon further consideration and discussion of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the fees to be paid to the Adviser by the Fund are appropriate and within the range of what would have been negotiated at arms length.
The Board reviewed the profitability of the Adviser with respect to the Fund. The Board considered the methodology for calculating profitability. Using such methodology, the Board noted that the Adviser did
18
| BOYAR VALUE FUND, INC. |
| ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)(Continued) |
| December 31, 2025 |
accrue a profit from Fund operations without considering marketing related costs. With respect to the Adviser, the Board concluded that based on the services provided, the profit from the Advisers relationship with the Fund was not excessive and not unreasonable to the Fund.
The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether management fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of the Funds investors. The Directors concluded that they would re-visit the issue of certain benefits to the Funds shareholders that might ensue from economies of scale following any significant growth in Fund assets or other change in circumstances.
Fallout Benefits. Because of its relationship with the Fund, the Adviser and its affiliates may derive ancillary benefits from Fund operations, including those derived from the allocation of Fund brokerage and the use of commission dollars to pay for research and other similar services. The Board noted that the Adviser did not anticipate any fallout benefits at this time.
Conclusion. Based on all of the information provided by the Adviser and the Boards considerations and conclusions reached thereon, the Board determined that the compensation to be paid under the Advisory Agreement is appropriate in light of the nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Adviser, and that the continuance of the Advisory Agreement be approved.
