December 10, 2020
 
Dear Shareholder:
 
For the 10/31/20 fiscal year, the Huber Capital Diversified Large Cap Value Fund (“Diversified Large Cap Fund”) underperformed both the Russell 1000® Value Index and the S&P 500® Index.  The Huber Capital Equity Income Fund (“Equity Income Fund”) outperformed the Russell 1000® Value Index but underperformed the S&P 500® Index.  The Huber Capital Mid Cap Value Fund (“Mid Cap Value Fund”) underperformed its benchmark, the Russell Midcap® Value Index.  The Huber Capital Small Cap Value Fund (“Small Cap Value Fund”) underperformed its benchmarks, the Russell 2000® Value Index and the Russell 2000® Index.
 
The Huber Funds have decided to change their primary benchmarks from the Russell benchmarks to the Bloomberg benchmarks.  There will be no investment implications as a result of this change.  The new Bloomberg benchmarks offer a more cost-effective solution that is consistent with our management style.  The fund specific changes are as follows:
 
Equity Income Fund – from the Russell 1000® Value Index to the Bloomberg U.S. 1000® Value Index.
 
Small Cap Value Fund – from the Russell 2000® Value Index and the Russell 2000® Index to the Bloomberg U.S. 2000® Value Index.
 
Diversified Large Cap Value Fund – from the Russell 1000® Value Index to the Bloomberg U.S. 1000® Value Index.
 
Mid Cap Value Fund – from the Russell Midcap® Value Index to the Bloomberg U.S. 2500® Value Index.
 
Equity markets had a mixed year after dropping sharply during the COVID-19 pandemic.  Growth once again outpaced value and large caps outperformed small caps.  While headlines have produced volatility, particularly those surrounding the pandemic, politics, and unemployment figures, the market is likely to remain choppy in the coming year as investors await the vaccine rollout and keep tabs on the macroeconomic backdrop.
 
Diversified Large Cap Value Fund Review
 
The Investor Class and Institutional Class of the Diversified Large Cap Value Fund returned -15.00% and -14.73%, respectively, underperforming the -7.57% total return of the Russell 1000® Value Index, the 9.71% total return of the S&P 500® Index, and the -10.56% total return for the Bloomberg U.S. 1000® Value Index for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2020.  Relative to the Russell 1000® Value Index, the largest positive contributors to the Fund’s performance were information technology and real estate, while the largest detractors were materials and industrials.
 
Within information technology, shares of Microsoft Corp. (“Microsoft”), a global software and technology company, benefitted from increased utilization of cloud computing by businesses of all sizes, a trend which has been expedited due to the
1

pandemic.  Microsoft’s Azure is a major player in cloud computing.  The company’s LinkedIn and Office segments also held up well during the pandemic.
 
Within real estate, the largest contributor to positive performance was Granite Real Estate Investment Trust, a REIT (real estate investment trust) focused on industrial, warehouse, and logistics locations.  The company benefitted from high collections as well as their e-commerce exposure.
 
Within materials, Innospec, Inc. (“Innospec”) was the largest detractor from relative performance.  Innospec, a specialty chemical producer focused on the energy and fuel additives markets, was hurt due to a broad slowdown in energy consumption during the pandemic.
 
Within industrials, KBR, Inc. (“KBR”) was the largest detractor from relative performance.  KBR, an engineering and construction company focused on the energy and government services markets, was impacted by a slowdown in energy markets.
 
Equity Income Fund Review
 
The Investor and Institutional Classes of the Equity Income Fund returned -6.68% and -6.38%, respectively, outperforming the -7.57% total return of the Russell 1000® Value Index, and the -10.56% total return of the Bloomberg U.S. 1000® Value Index, and underperforming the 9.71% total return of the S&P 500® Index during the fiscal year ending October 31, 2020.  Relative to the Russell 1000® Value Index, the largest positive contributors to the Fund’s performance were information technology and consumer discretionary, while the largest sector detractors were consumer staples and industrials.
 
Within information technology, Microsoft was the largest contributor to relative performance. Microsoft was discussed in the Diversified Large Cap Value Fund Review section of this letter.
 
Within consumer discretionary, Home Depot was the largest contributor to relative performance.  Home Depot, a home improvement retailer, benefitted from an increase in home improvement projects, particularly “do it yourself” projects driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as a strong housing market.
 
Consumer staples detracted from relative performance due to ownership of Tyson Foods (“Tyson Foods”).  Tyson Foods, a producer of chicken, beef and pork, was impacted by the pandemic, which forced closures of certain plants and has also reduced sales into the higher margin restaurant channel.
 
Within industrials, KBR and Northrup Grumman Corp. (“Northrup Grumman”) detracted from relative performance.  KBR was discussed in the Diversified Large Cap Value Fund Review section.  Northrup Grumman, a global aerospace and defense company, was impacted by COVID-19 plant disruptions, as well as expectations for reduced defense spending as governments deal with economic ramifications of the pandemic.
2

Mid Cap Value Fund Review
 
The Investor and Institutional Classes of the Mid Cap Value Fund returned -22.65% and -22.55%, respectively, underperforming the -13.70% total return of the Bloomberg U.S. 2500® Value Index and Russell Midcap® Value Index, which generated a total return of -6.94% for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2020.  Relative to the Russell Midcap® Value Index, the largest positive contributors to the Fund’s performance were real estate and financials, while the largest sector detractors were energy and information technology.
 
Within real estate, Granite Real Estate Investment Trust was the largest contributor to relative performance.  Granite Real Estate Investment Trust was discussed previously in the Diversified Large Cap Value Fund Review section.
 
Within financials, CNO Financial Group, Inc. (“CNO Financial Group”) and Virtus Investment Partners (“Virtus Investment Partners”) were the largest positive contributors to relative performance.  CNO Financial Group, a provider of life and health insurance, benefitted from deferred health treatments and lower than anticipated COVID-19 mortality trends.  Virtus Investment Partners, an asset manager, benefitted from strong performance in several products as well as their partnership with Allianz Global Investors, leading to favorable fund flows.
 
Within energy, the largest detractors to relative performance were Euronav N.V. (“Euronav”) and Golar LNG Partners LP (“Golar LNG Partners”).  Euronav, a provider of seaborne oil transportation, was negatively impacted by a slowdown in the energy market which drove oil tanker day rates down.  Golar LNG Partners, a provider of liquified natural gas storage and transportation, was similarly impacted by a slowdown in energy markets leading to lower LNG (liquified natural gas) vessel spot rates.
 
Within information technology, Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (“Comtech”) was the largest detractor from relative performance.  Comtech, a provider of communication and satellite services to military and civilian markets, was adversely impacted by the macroeconomic environment causing customers to delay purchases of communications equipment, as well as fallout from the attempted Gilat Satellite Networks acquisition which led to a $70m breakup fee.
 
Small Cap Value Fund Review
 
The Investor and Institutional Classes of the Small Cap Value Fund returned -23.03% and -22.80% respectively, underperforming the -11.06% total return of the Bloomberg U.S. 2000® Value Index, and the Russell 2000® Value Index and Russell 2000® Index, which generated total returns of -13.92% and -0.14%, respectively, in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2020.  Relative to the Russell 2000® Value Index, the largest positive contributors to the Fund’s performance were financials and real estate, while the largest sector detractors were materials and information technology.
 
Within financials, CNO Financial Group and Virtus Investment Partners were the largest positive contributors to relative performance.  Both of these were discussed previously in the Mid Cap Value Fund Review section.
3

Within real estate, Granite Real Estate Investment Trust was the largest positive contributor to relative performance.  This stock was discussed in the Mid Cap Value Fund Review section.
 
Within materials, Uranium Participation Corp. was the largest detractor from relative performance.  Uranium Participation Corp., an investment vehicle for price appreciation in uranium and uranium hexafluoride, declined due to declines in the prices of these commodities.
 
Within information technology, Comtech detracted from relative performance.  Comtech was discussed in the Mid Cap Value Fund Review section.
 
Outlook
 
Huber Capital Management maintains a high degree of optimism.  We remain disciplined with respect to our philosophy and process, populating the Funds with companies we believe embody meaningful upside potential and possess tangible valuation support.  It continues to be our view that in the long run a company’s valuation should ultimately reflect its normalized cash generation capabilities.  By investing in out-of-favor companies that trade at a discount to our estimate of normalized earnings, we seek to provide superior risk-adjusted returns over time.
 
We aim for neutrality relative to the weight of important factors in the macro-economy, a policy also consistent with 100% bottom-up investment management.  With the massive shift of assets from active to passive management in recent years, we believe benchmarks have become price momentum strategies.  Flows into index funds and exchange-traded funds have resulted in the bidding up of underlying securities and, accordingly, the distortion of sector and industry weights relative to the weight of the related factor in the macro-economy.  Additionally, frequently used classification schema may assign companies to sectors which, in our view, don’t accurately reflect the company’s primary exposure.  Accordingly, Huber Capital Management utilizes a GDP (gross domestic product)-based factor analysis to assess factor exposure and may, therefore, at times appear meaningfully out-of-line with respect to corresponding benchmark weights, despite being adequately diversified.
 
Nevertheless, as of October 31, 2020, the Funds were positioned as follows with respect to the sector weights in their corresponding benchmarks: the Diversified Large Cap Value Fund was overweight information technology, consumer staples, utilities and industrials, and underweight real estate, financials, consumer discretionary, communication services, health care, energy, and materials.  The Equity Income Fund was overweight information technology and industrials, and underweight communication services, consumer discretionary, financials, real estate, energy, utilities, materials, consumer staples and industrials. The Mid Cap Value Fund was overweight energy, information technology, financials, consumer staples, utilities, materials, and underweight real estate, consumer discretionary, communication services, industrials, and health care.  The Small Cap Value Fund was overweight energy, industrials, utilities, health care, materials and
4

information technology, and underweight financials, real estate, communication services, consumer staples, and consumer discretionary.
 
As always, we thank you for your continued support and for entrusting us with your investment dollars.
 
Sincerely,
 
The Huber Capital Management Team
 

 
Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
 
Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. The Funds may invest in foreign securities which involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. The risks are greater for investments in emerging markets.  Additionally, the Funds are subject to sector emphasis risk meaning that companies in the same or related businesses may comprise a significant portion of a Fund’s portfolio and adversely affect the value of the portfolio to a greater extent than if such business comprised a lesser portion of a portfolio. Investments in initial public offerings (“IPOs”) carry additional risk such as market and liquidity risk and can fluctuate considerably. When a Fund’s asset base is small, the impact of IPOs on the Fund’s performance could be magnified. Investments in small- and medium capitalization companies involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater price volatility than large-capitalization companies. Value stocks have a lower expected growth rate in earnings and sales versus growth stocks.
 
Fund holdings and sector allocations are subject to change at any time and should not be considered a recommendation to buy or sell any security.  Please see the schedules of investments in this report for complete Fund holdings.
 
Current and future portfolio holdings are subject to risk.
 
The information provided herein represents the opinion of Huber Capital Management, LLC and is not intended to be a forecast of future events, a guarantee of future results, nor investment advice.
 
The S&P 500® Index, an unmanaged index, consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity, and industry group representation.  It is a market-value weighted index (stock price times number of shares outstanding), with each stock’s weight in the Index proportionate to its market value.
 
The Russell 1000® Value Index measures the performance of those Russell 1000® companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values.
 
The Russell 2000® Index, an unmanaged index, is comprised of the 2,000 smallest companies in the Russell 3000® Index.
 
The Russell 2000® Value Index measures the performance of those Russell 2000® companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values.
 
The Russell Midcap® Value Index, an unmanaged index, measures the performance of the mid-cap value segment of the U.S. equity universe. It is a market capitalization weighted index representing the smallest 800 companies in the Russell 1000® Index.  It includes those Russell Midcap companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower expected growth values.
 
Bloomberg U.S. 1000® Value Index is screened from the Bloomberg U.S. 1000 Index and is constructed based on a linear combination of risk factors.  The four factors are: 1) Earnings Yield, 2) Valuation, 3) Dividend Yield and 4) Growth.  The factors are equally weighted when forming a composite signal where Growth is considered to be a negative indicator and thus flipped to be a negative.  The Indices are market-capitalization-weighted.

The indexes do not reflect the payment of transaction costs, fees and expenses associated with an investment in the Funds.  The Funds’ value disciplines may prevent or restrict investment in major stocks in the benchmark indices.  It is not possible to invest directly in an index.  The Funds’ returns may not correlate with the returns of their benchmark indexes.
 
Cash flow measures the cash generating capability of a company by adding non-cash charges (e.g., depreciation) and interest expense to pretax income.
 
Diversification does not assure a profit, nor does it protect against a loss in a declining market.

Foreign securities typically involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods than domestic securities.

EXPENSE EXAMPLE – October 31, 2020 (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of a mutual fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, redemption fees, and exchange fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service fees, and other Fund expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.  The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested in each Fund at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (5/1/20 – 10/31/20).
 
Actual Expenses
For each class of the Equity Income Fund, the Small Cap Value Fund, the Diversified Large Cap Value Fund and the Mid Cap Value Fund, two lines are presented in the tables below – the first line for each class provides information about actual account values and actual expenses.  You may be assessed a fee for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks, and stop payment orders at prevailing rates charged by U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, the Funds’ transfer agent.  The Examples below include, but are not limited to, management fees, fund accounting, custody and transfer agent fees. 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 During Period” for your Fund and class to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class of each Fund, the second line for each class provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the respective Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return.  The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other 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 transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. 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 transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at October 31, 2020
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION
 
The Huber Capital Equity Income Fund, the Huber Capital Small Cap Value Fund, the Huber Capital Diversified Large Cap Value Fund, and the Huber Capital Mid Cap Value Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are each a diversified series of Advisors Series Trust (the “Trust”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.  Each of the Funds has separate assets and liabilities and differing investment objectives.  The investment objective of the Huber Capital Equity Income Fund (the “Equity Income Fund”), Huber Capital Diversified Large Cap Value Fund (the “Diversified Large Cap Value Fund”), and the Huber Capital Mid Cap Value Fund (the “Mid Cap Value Fund”) is current income and capital appreciation.  The investment objective of the Huber Capital Small Cap Value Fund (the “Small Cap Value Fund”) is capital appreciation.  The Funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies”.
 
The Investor Class of the Equity Income Fund and the Small Cap Value Fund commenced operations on June 29, 2007.  As of October 25, 2011, the former Institutional shares were re-designated as Investor Class shares.  The Equity Income Fund and the Small Cap Value Institutional Classes subsequently commenced operations on October 25, 2011. The Diversified Large Cap Value Fund commenced operations on December 31, 2012.  The Mid Cap Value Fund commenced operations on December 31, 2015.
 
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
 
A.
Security Valuation:  All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in note 3.
     
 
B.
Federal Income Taxes:  It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to shareholders.  Therefore, no Federal income or excise tax provision is required.
     
   
The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities.  The tax returns of the Funds’ prior three fiscal years are open for examination. Management has reviewed all open tax years in

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at October 31, 2020, Continued
   
major jurisdictions and concluded that there is no impact on the Funds’ net assets and no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax events relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and the state of Wisconsin; however, the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.
     
 
C.
Securities Transactions, Income and Distributions:  Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.  Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.
     
   
Investment income, expenses (other than those specific to the class of shares), and realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are allocated to the separate classes of the Funds based upon their relative net assets on the date income is earned or expensed and realized and unrealized gains and losses are incurred.
     
   
Each Fund is charged for those expenses that are directly attributable to the Fund, such as investment advisory, custody and transfer agent fees.  Expenses that are not attributable to a Fund are typically allocated among the Funds in proportion to their respective net assets.  Common expenses of the Trust are typically allocated among funds in the Trust based on a fund’s respective net assets, or by other equitable means.
     
   
The Funds distribute substantially all net investment income, if any, annually and net realized capital gains, if any, annually.  Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may include short-term capital gains.  All short-term capital gains are included in ordinary income for tax purposes.
     
   
The amount and character of income and net realized gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with Federal income tax rules and regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  To the extent these book/tax differences are permanent, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their Federal tax treatment.
     
 
D.
Reclassification of Capital Accounts:  Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting.  These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.
55

Huber Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at October 31, 2020, Continued
   
For the year ended October 31, 2020, there were no reclassifications between paid-in capital and distributable earnings.
     
 
E.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operation during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     
 
F.
Redemption Fees: The Funds charge a 1.00% redemption fee to shareholders who redeem shares held for 60 days or less.  Such fees are retained by the Funds and accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital.  The redemption fees retained by each Fund are disclosed in the statements of changes.
     
 
G.
REITs: The Funds have made certain investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) which pay dividends to their shareholders based upon funds available from operations.  It is quite common for these dividends to exceed the REIT’s taxable earnings and profits resulting in the excess portion of such dividends being designated as a return of capital.  The Funds intend to include the gross dividends from such REITs in their annual distributions to its shareholders and, accordingly, a portion of the Funds’ distributions may also be designated as a return of capital.
     
 
H.
Foreign Currency:  Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions.
     
   
The Funds do not isolate those portions of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
     
   
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise
56

Huber Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at October 31, 2020, Continued
   
from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period-end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
     
 
I.
Events Subsequent to the Fiscal Year End:  In preparing the financial statements as of October 31, 2020, management considered the impact of subsequent events for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.  Management has determined there were no subsequent events that would need to be disclosed in the Funds’ financial statements.
 
NOTE 3 – SECURITIES VALUATION
 
The Funds have adopted authoritative fair value accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value.  These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value, a discussion in changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period and expanded disclosure of valuation levels for major security types.  These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
 
 
Level 1 –
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have 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 identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speed, 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 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.

Following is a description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
 
Each Fund determines the fair value of its investments and computes its net asset value per share as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (4:00 EST).
 
Equity Securities – The Funds’ investments are carried at fair value. Securities that are primarily traded on a national securities exchange shall be valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded on the day of valuation or, if there has been no sale on such day, at the mean between the bid and asked prices.  Securities primarily traded in the NASDAQ Global Market
57

Huber Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at October 31, 2020, Continued
System for which market quotations are readily available shall be valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”).  If the NOCP is not available, such securities shall be valued at the last sale price on the day of valuation, or if there has been no sale on such day, at the mean between the bid and asked prices.  Over-the-counter securities which are not traded in the NASDAQ Global Market System shall be valued at the most recent sales price.  The values for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates.  Exchange rates are provided daily by a recognized independent pricing agent.  To the extent, these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Investment Companies – Investments in open-end mutual funds, including money market funds, are generally priced at their net asset value per share provided by the service agent of the funds and will be classified in level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Short-Term Securities – Short-term debt securities, including those securities having a maturity of 60 days or less, are valued at the evaluated mean between the bid and asked prices. To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, these securities would be classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
The Board of Trustees (“Board”) has delegated day-to-day valuation issues to a Valuation Committee of the Trust which is comprised of representatives from the Funds’ administrator, U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, doing business as U.S. Bank Global Fund Services (“Fund Services”). The function of the Valuation Committee is to value securities where current and reliable market quotations are not readily available or the closing price does not represent fair value by following procedures approved by the Board. These procedures consider many factors, including the type of security, size of holding, trading volume and news events. All actions taken by the Valuation Committee are subsequently reviewed and ratified by the Board.
 
Depending on the relative significance of the valuation inputs, fair valued securities may be classified in either level 2 or level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.  The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ securities as of October 31, 2020:

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). The primary focus of ASU 2018-13 is to improve the effectiveness of the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The changes affect all companies that are required to include fair value measurement disclosures. In general, the amendments in ASU 2018-13 are effective for all entities for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. An entity is permitted to early adopt the removed or modified

disclosures upon the issuance of ASU 2018-13 and may delay adoption of the additional disclosures, which are required for public companies only, until their effective date. The Funds have adopted all applicable provisions of ASU 2018-13.
 
The global outbreak of COVID-19 (commonly referred to as “coronavirus”) has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain.  The ultimate economic fallout from the pandemic, and the long-term impact on economies, markets, industries and individual issuers, are not known.  The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Funds invest depends on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Funds’ investments, impair the Funds’ ability to satisfy redemption requests, and negatively impact the Funds’ performance.
 
NOTE 4 – INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
The Funds have an investment advisory agreement with Huber Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) pursuant to which the Adviser is responsible for providing investment management services to the Funds.  The Adviser furnishes all investment advice, office space and facilities, and provides most of the personnel needed by the Funds.  As compensation for its services, the Adviser is entitled to a fee, computed daily and payable monthly.  The Equity Income Fund pays fees calculated at an annual rate of 0.99% based upon the Fund’s average daily net assets for the first $10 billion, 0.75% based upon the Fund’s average daily net assets for the next $10 billion, and 0.50% based upon the Fund’s average daily net assets in excess of $20 billion.  For the period February 28, 2020 through February 27, 2021, the Adviser has agreed to voluntarily reduce the Equity Income Fund’s contractual management fee from 0.99% to 0.75%. The Small Cap Value Fund pays fees calculated at an annual rate of 1.35% based upon the Fund’s average daily net assets for the first $5 billion and 1.00% based upon the Fund’s average daily net assets in excess of $5 billion. For the period February 28, 2020 through February 27, 2021, the Adviser has agreed to voluntarily reduce the Small Cap Value Fund’s contractual management fee from 1.35% to 0.99%. The Diversified Large Cap Value Fund pays fees calculated at an annual rate of 0.75% based upon the Fund’s average daily net assets for the first $10 billion and 0.50% based upon the Fund’s average daily net assets in excess of $10 billion.  For the period February 28, 2020 through February 27, 2021, the Adviser has agreed to voluntarily reduce the Diversified Large Cap Value Fund’s contractual management fee from 0.75% to 0.00%.  The Mid Cap Value Fund pays fees calculated at an annual rate of 1.00% based upon the Fund’s average daily net assets.  For the period February 28, 2020 through February 27, 2021, the Adviser has agreed to voluntarily reduce the Mid Cap Value Fund’s contractual management fee from

1.00% to 0.00%.  For the year ended October 31, 2020, the advisory fees incurred by the Funds are disclosed in the statements of operations.
 
The Funds are responsible for their own operating expenses. The Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce fees payable to it by the Funds and to pay Fund operating expenses (excluding class specific expenses such as the 0.25% 12b-1 fees applied to the Investor Class, 0.15% shareholder servicing fees applied to the Investor Class and 0.10% applied to the Institutional Class of the Mid Cap Value Fund, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest expense, taxes and extraordinary expenses) to the extent necessary to limit the Funds’ aggregate annual operating expenses as follows:
 
   
Expense Caps

Small Cap Value Fund
1.35%
 
Diversified Large Cap Value Fund
0.75%
 
Mid Cap Value Fund
1.00%

Percent of average daily net assets of the Funds.
 
Any such reduction made by the Adviser in its fees or payment of expenses which are the Funds’ obligation are subject to reimbursement by the Funds to the Adviser, if so requested by the Adviser, in any subsequent month in the 36-month period from the date of the management fee reduction and expense payment if the aggregate amount actually paid by the Funds toward the operating expenses for such fiscal year (taking into account the reimbursement) will not cause the Fund to exceed the lesser of: (1) the expense limitation in place at the time of the management fee reduction and expense payment; or (2) the expense limitation in place at the time of the reimbursement.  Any such reimbursement is also contingent upon Board of Trustees review and approval at the time the reimbursement is made. Such reimbursement may not be paid prior to the Fund’s payment of current ordinary operating expenses.  For the year ended October 31, 2020, the Adviser reduced its fees and absorbed Fund expenses in the amount of $150,039 for the Equity Income Fund, $132,640 for the Small Cap Value Fund, $181,127 for the Diversified Large Cap Value Fund, and $201,442 for the Mid Cap Value Fund.
 
No amounts were recouped by the Adviser. The Adviser may recapture portions of the amounts shown below no later than the corresponding dates:

Fund Services serves as the Funds’ administrator, fund accountant and transfer agent.

The Board of Trustees has approved a new distribution agreement to enable Quasar to continue serving as the Funds’ Distributor.
 
NOTE 5 – SHAREHOLDER SERVICING FEE
 
The Funds have entered into a shareholder servicing agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Adviser, under which the Investor Class of the Funds may pay servicing fees at an annual rate of up to 0.15% of the average daily net assets of each Investor Class and at an annual rate of up to 0.10% of the average daily net assets of the Institutional Class of the Mid Cap Value Fund.  Payments to the Adviser under the Agreement may reimburse the Adviser for payments it makes to selected brokers, dealers and administrators which have entered into service agreements with the Adviser for services provided to shareholders of the Funds.  The services provided by such intermediaries are primarily designed to assist shareholders of the Funds and include the furnishing of office space and equipment, telephone facilities, personnel and assistance to the Funds in servicing such shareholders.  Services provided by such intermediaries also include the provision of support services to the Funds and include establishing and maintaining shareholders’ accounts and record processing, purchase and redemption transactions, answering routine client inquiries regarding the Funds, and providing such other personal services to shareholders as the Funds may reasonably request.  During the year ended October 31, 2020, the Institutional Class of the Mid Cap Value Fund did not accrue shareholder servicing fees. For the year ended October 31, 2020, the shareholder servicing fees accrued by the Funds’ Investor Class are disclosed in the statements of operations.
 
NOTE 6 – 12B-1 DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT AND PLAN
 
The Funds have adopted a Distribution Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 (the “Plan”). The Plan permits the Funds to pay Quasar Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) for distribution and related expenses at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of each Fund’s

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at October 31, 2020, Continued
NOTE 11 – ADVISOR REIMBURSEMENT FOR LOSS
 
On March 28, 2017, the Fund received a reimbursement of $94 from the Adviser related to net losses incurred on the disposal of investments that were purchased in violation of the Fund’s investment restrictions during the year ended October 31, 2017.
 
NOTE 12 – PRINCIPAL RISKS
 
Below is a summary of some, but not all, of the principal risks of investing in the Funds, each of which may adversely affect a Fund’s net asset value and total return. The Funds’ most recent prospectus provides further descriptions of each Fund’s investment objective, principal investment strategies and principal risks.
 
 
Foreign and Emerging Markets Risk – Investments in foreign currencies and foreign issuers are subject to additional risks, including political and economic risks, greater volatility, civil conflicts and war, sanctions or other measures by the United States or other governments, liquidity risks, currency fluctuations, higher transaction costs, delayed settlement, possible foreign controls on investment, expropriation and nationalization risks, and less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of foreign markets. Events and evolving conditions in certain economies or markets may alter the risks associated with investments tied to countries or regions that historically were perceived as comparatively stable becoming riskier and more volatile. These risks are magnified in countries in “emerging markets.” Emerging market countries typically have less-established market economies than developed countries and may face greater social, economic, regulatory and political uncertainties. In addition, emerging markets typically present greater illiquidity and price volatility concerns due to smaller or limited local capital markets and greater difficulty in determining market valuations of securities due to limited public information on issuers.
     
 
Value Style Investing Risk – A style of investing which targets undervalued companies with characteristics for improved valuations. This style of investing is subject to the risk that the valuations never improve or that the returns on “value” securities may not move in tandem with the returns on other styles of investing or the stock market in general.
     
 
Sector Emphasis Risk –Securities of companies in the same or related businesses, if comprising a significant portion of each portfolio, could react in some circumstances negatively to market conditions, interest rates and economic, regulatory or fiscal developments and adversely affect the value of the portfolio to a greater extent than if such business comprised a lesser portion of the Fund’s portfolio.

Huber Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at October 31, 2020, Continued
 
Market and Regulatory Risk – Events in the financial markets and economy may cause volatility and uncertainty and adversely impact the Fund’s performance. Market events may affect a single issuer, industry, sector, or the market as a whole.  Traditionally liquid investments may experience periods of diminished liquidity. Governmental and regulatory actions, including tax law changes, may also impair portfolio management and have unexpected or adverse consequences on particular markets, strategies, or investments. The Fund’s investments may decline in value due to factors affecting individual issuers (such as the results of supply and demand), or sectors within the securities markets.  The value of a security or other investment also may go up or down due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular issuer, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in interest rates or exchange rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally.  In addition, unexpected events and their aftermaths, such as the spread of deadly diseases; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; financial, political or social disruptions; terrorism and war; and other tragedies or catastrophes, can cause investor fear and panic, which can adversely affect the economies of many companies, sectors, nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.
     
 
Focus Risk – At such times the Funds hold the securities of a small number of issuers, it may be more exposed to the risks associated with and developments affecting an individual issuer or a smaller number of issuers than a fund that invests more widely. This may increase the Funds’ volatility and cause the performance of a relatively smaller number of issuers to have a greater impact on a Fund’s performance.
     
 
Small Companies Risk (Small Cap Value Fund only) – Investing in securities of small-sized companies may involve greater volatility than investing in larger and more established companies because companies with small market capitalizations can be subject to more abrupt or erratic share price changes than larger, more established companies.
     
 
Mid-Sized Company Risk (Mid Cap Value Fund only) – A mid cap company may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than stocks of larger companies. These stocks present greater risks than securities of larger, more diversified companies.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Trustees Advisors Series Trust and Shareholders of Huber Capital
Equity Income Fund, Huber Capital Small Cap Value Fund, Huber Capital Diversified
Large Cap Value Fund, Huber Capital Mid Cap Value Fund
 
Opinion on the Financial Statements
 
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Huber Capital Equity Income Fund, Huber Capital Small Cap Value Fund, Huber Capital Diversified Large Cap Value Fund, and Huber Capital Mid Cap Value Fund (the “Funds”), each a series of Advisors Series Trust (the “Trust”), including the schedules of investments, as of October 31, 2020, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, with respect to Huber Capital Mid Cap Value Fund the financial highlights for each of the four years in the period then ended and for the period December 31, 2015 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 2016, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).  In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Funds as of October 31, 2020, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and their financial highlights for periods indicated above, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Basis for Opinion
 
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits.  We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.  We have served as the auditor of one or more of the funds in the Trust since 2003.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.  The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting.  As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
 
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.  Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2020 by correspondence with the custodian and broker.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

STATEMENT REGARDING LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (Unaudited)
Each Fund has adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “program”). The Board has designated a committee at the Adviser to serve as the administrator of the program. The Adviser’s committee conducts the day-to-day operation of the programs pursuant to policies and procedures administered by the committee.
 
Under the program, the Adviser’s committee manages each Fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Fund could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Fund. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of each Fund’s investments, limiting the amount of each Fund’s illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to each Fund for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. The committee’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of each Fund’s investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
 
The Board reviewed a report prepared by the committee regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period June 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020. No significant liquidity events impacting the Funds were noted in the report. In addition, the committee provided its assessment that the program had been effective in managing each Fund’s liquidity risk.

Item 2. Code of Ethics.

The registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer.  The registrant has not made any substantive amendments to its code of ethics during the period covered by this report.  The registrant has not granted any waivers from any provisions of the code of ethics during the period covered by this report.

A copy of the registrant’s Code of Ethics is filed herewith.

Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.

The registrant’s Board of Trustees has determined that there is at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee.  Ms. Gail S. Duree is the “audit committee financial expert” and is considered to be “independent” as each term is defined in Item 3 of Form N‑CSR.

Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

The registrant has engaged its principal accountant to perform audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services during the past two fiscal years.  “Audit services” refer to performing an audit of the registrant's annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years.  “Audit-related services” refer to the assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit.  “Tax services” refer to professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.  There were no “other services” provided by the principal accountant.  The following table details the aggregate fees billed or expected to be billed for each of the last two fiscal years for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees by the principal accountant.

The audit committee has adopted pre-approval policies and procedures that require the audit committee to pre‑approve all audit and non‑audit services of the registrant, including services provided to any entity affiliated with the registrant.

The percentage of fees billed by Tait, Weller & Baker LLP applicable to non-audit services pursuant to waiver of pre-approval requirement were as follows:

All of the principal accountant’s hours spent on auditing the registrant’s financial statements were attributed to work performed by full‑time permanent employees of the principal accountant.

The following table indicates the non-audit fees billed or expected to be billed by the registrant’s accountant for services to the registrant and to the registrant’s investment adviser (and any other controlling entity, etc.—not sub-adviser) for the last two years.  The audit committee of the Board of Trustees has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant's investment adviser is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence and has concluded that the provision of such non-audit services by the accountant has not compromised the accountant’s independence.
