Following is Curtis A. Teberg’s commentary on the credit crisis and the current economic climate printed in the SUPERIOR TELEGRAM on October 22, 2008. Since these topics seem to be on the minds of many investors, we are reprinting the column in place of our traditional shareholder letter.

Some promising news about the economy

By Curtis A. Teberg

The question I posed in my semi-annual report to shareholders of The Teberg Fund last September (2007) now seems like an eerie premonition of the credit crisis we’re facing today.

I questioned if “this credit house of cards may just be starting to come down,” and sure enough it did. What I couldn’t imagine then is the global scope of the problem or that it may have started nearly 10 years ago.

A New York Times article from September 30, 1999 forwarded by a colleague started with this sentence:

“In a move that could help increase home ownership rates among minorities and low-income consumers, the Fannie Mae Corporation is easing the credit requirements on loans that it will purchase from banks and other lenders.”

The article went on to describe pressure from the Clinton Administration, banks and mortgage companies on Fannie Mae to ease credit. It also warned that “the government-subsidized corporation may run into trouble in an economic downturn, prompting a government rescue similar to that of the savings and loan industry in the 1980’s.”

What happened in the years that followed might be considered the perfect credit storm.

The Federal Reserve repeatedly dropped interest rates, which increased demand for housing and drove up prices. Domestic and global investors wanted to get in on this boom, and mortgage-backed securities became a greater part of investment portfolios.

This strategy seemed sound because there hadn’t been a major decline in housing values since the Great Depression, and many investors and homeowners assumed real estate appreciation was a given.

For the first time, aggregate mortgage debt became greater than the total value of homeowner equity in the U.S., so it didn’t take much shift in housing values for the credit system to unravel.

Unfortunately, this history lesson doesn’t address the question that’s on the minds of investors about when the market will stabilize and what they should do in the meantime. I certainly won’t make a blanket recommendation to all investors like the kind we’ve heard from nationally-televised financial gurus. Instead, I’ll point out what may be some promising news about the economy.

· The market can rally as quickly as it declines as we just saw after the federal government announced an unprecedented investment in U.S. banks that pushed the Dow up over 900 points in one day.

· Many U.S. companies are in a strong financial position and can likely withstand economic uncertainty.

· It may take up to 12 months to realize the impact of the latest interest rate cut, and lower mortgage rates could help stabilize housing prices.

· Declining oil prices could lower the price of goods and services.

· Historically, some of the best market returns followed periods of great turmoil.

Whether history will repeat itself this time is up to each investor to decide for himself or with the help of a trusted advisor. The sobering thought is that the impact of economic policies made today may not be fully realized for another decade.

The above discussion is based on the opinions of Curtis A. Teberg, given the current economic environment, and is not intended to be a forecast of future events, a guarantee of future results, nor investment advice.

Because the Fund is a “fund of funds,” your cost of investing in the Fund may be higher than your cost of investing directly in the shares of the mutual funds in which the Fund invests. By investing in the Fund, you will indirectly bear your share of any fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds, in addition to indirectly bearing the principal risks of those funds. These risks include, but are not limited to, risks involved with non-diversification and investments in smaller capitalization companies and lower rated securities. The Fund may also commit up to 80% of its assets to high yield funds containing lower rated securities that are subject to a higher risk of default.

The Teberg Fund

Expense Example at September 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of a mutual fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (4/1/08 – 9/30/08).

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses, with actual net expenses being limited to 2.50% per the advisory agreement. Although the Fund charges no sales loads, you will be assessed fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks, and stop payment orders at prevailing rates charged by U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, the Fund’s transfer agent. To the extent the Fund invests in shares of other investment companies as part of its investment strategy, you will indirectly bear your proportionate share of any fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds in which the Fund invests in addition to the expenses of the Fund. Actual expenses of the underlying funds are expected to vary among the various underlying funds. These expenses are not included in the example below. The example below includes, but is not limited to, management fees, 12b-1 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’’ to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Teberg Fund

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at September 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

The Teberg Fund (the “Fund”) is a non-diversified series of Advisors Series Trust (the “Trust”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end management investment company. The Fund began operations on April 1, 2002. The investment objective of the Fund is to maximize total return (capital appreciation plus income).

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

A. Security Valuation: Investments are valued at the respective net asset value per share (“NAV”) of each underlying fund, determined at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 3:00 p.m. central time) on the valuation date. When the Fund is unable to receive an NAV from an underlying fund, shares of the underlying fund will be valued at its fair market value as determined in good faith by the Advisor and the Trust’s Valuation Committee. Most underlying fund securities are valued primarily on the basis of current market quotations or on the basis of information furnished by a pricing service. Certain short-term securities are valued on the basis of amortized cost. If market quotations or information furnished by a pricing service is not readily available or does not accurately reflect fair value for a security held by an underlying fund, or if the value of a security held by an underlying fund has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the applicable exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, that security may be valued at its fair market value as determined in good faith in accordance with procedures approved by the underlying funds’ Boards of Trustees.

The Fund adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), effective with the beginning of the Fund’s fiscal year. SFAS 157 establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques giving the highest priority to readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. See note 7 – Summary of Fair Value Exposure for more information.

B. Federal Income Taxes: It is the Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

The Teberg Fund

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at September 30, 2008 (Unaudited) – continued

On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Effective September 30, 2007, the Fund adopted FIN 48. Management of the Fund reviewed the tax positions in the open tax years 2005 to 2008 and determined that the implementation of FIN 48 had no impact on the Fund’s net assets or results of operations.

C. Security Transactions, Dividends 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. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which differs from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. To the extent these book/tax differences are permanent such amounts are with the capital accounts based on their Federal tax treatment.

D. 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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

E. 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 between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.

F. New Accounting Pronouncement: In March 2008, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 161") was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by requiring enhanced disclosure that enables investors to understand how and why an entity uses derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for, and how derivative instruments affect an entity's results of operations and financial position. Management is currently evaluating the implications of SFAS 161. The impact on the Fund’s financial statement disclosures, if any, is currently being assessed.

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

For the six months ended September 30, 2008, First Associated Investment Advisors, Inc. (the “Advisor”) provided the Fund with investment management services under an Investment Advisory Agreement. The Advisor furnished all investment advice, office space, facilities, and provides most of the personnel needed by the Fund. As compensation for its services, the Advisor is entitled to a monthly fee at the annual rate of 1.50% based upon the average daily net assets of the Fund. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, the Fund incurred $268,289 in advisory fees.

The Fund is responsible for its own operating expenses. The Advisor has agreed to reduce fees payable to it by the Fund and to pay Fund operating expenses to the extent necessary to limit the Fund’s aggregate annual operating expenses to 2.50% of average daily net assets. Any such reduction made by the Advisor in its fees or payment of expenses which are the Fund’s obligation are subject to reimbursement by the Fund to the Advisor, if so requested by the Advisor, in subsequent fiscal years if the aggregate amount actually paid by the Fund toward the operating expenses for such fiscal year (taking into account the reimbursement) does not exceed the applicable limitation on Fund expenses. The Advisor is permitted to be reimbursed only for fee reductions and expense payments made in the previous three fiscal years, but is permitted to look back five years and four years, respectively, during the initial six years and seventh year of the Fund’s operations. 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. There were no expenses subject to recapture pursuant to the aforementioned conditions at September 30, 2008. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, the Advisor waived $6,385 in 12b-1 fees received from underlying funds that were purchased through a broker. The 12b-1 fees received by the Fund are included in the advisory fee waiver in the Statement of Operations.

The Teberg Fund

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at September 30, 2008 (Unaudited) – continued

U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (the “Administrator”) acts as the Fund’s Administrator under an Administration Agreement. The Administrator prepares various federal and state regulatory filings, reports and returns for the Fund; prepares reports and materials to be supplied to the Trustees; monitors the activities of the Fund’s custodian, transfer agent and accountants; coordinates the preparation and payment of the Fund’s expenses and reviews the Fund’s expense accruals. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, the Fund incurred $35,772 in administration fees.

U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC also serves as the fund accountant and transfer agent to the Fund. U.S. Bank N.A., an affiliate of U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, serves as the Fund’s custodian. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, the Fund incurred $13,713, $9,067, and $3,831 in fund accounting, transfer agency, and custody fees, respectively.

Quasar Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) acts as the Fund’s principal underwriter in a continuous public offering of the Fund’s shares. The Distributor is an affiliate of the Administrator.

Certain officers of the Fund are also employees of the Administrator.

For the six months ended September 30, 2008, the Fund was allocated $3,057 of the Chief Compliance Officer fee.

NOTE 4 – DISTRIBUTION FEES

The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 (the “Plan”). The Plan permits the Fund to pay for distribution and related expenses at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The expenses covered by the Plan may include the cost of preparing and distributing prospectuses and other sales material, advertising and public relations expenses, payments to financial intermediaries and compensation of personnel involved in selling shares of the Fund. Payments made pursuant to the Plan will represent compensation for distribution and services activities, not reimbursements for specific expenses incurred. Pursuant to a distribution coordination agreement adopted under the Plan, distribution fees are paid to the Advisor as “Distribution Coordinator”.
