O’Shaughnessy Funds
Notes to Schedule of Investments
October 31, 2012 (Unaudited)

Note 1 – Securities Valuation

The O’Shaughnessy Funds’ (the “Funds”) investments in securities are carried at their fair value. Equity securities, including common stocks, convertible securities and preferred stocks, that are primarily traded on a national securities exchange shall be valued at the last sales price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded on the day of valuation or, if there has been no sale price on such day, at the mean between the bid and asked prices. Securities primarily traded in the NASDAQ Global Market 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.  Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at their net asset value per share.  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.
 
Short-term securities having a maturity of 60 days or less are valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value.  To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, these securities would be classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or if the closing price does not represent fair value, are valued following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees (“Board”). These procedures consider many factors, including the type of security, size of holding, trading volume and news events.  Fair valuation may also be used for securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, securities for which no or limited trading activity has occurred for a period of time, or securities that are otherwise deemed to be illiquid.  Depending on the relative significance of the valuation inputs, these securities may be classified in either Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
The Board has delegated day-to-day valuation issues to a Valuation Committee which is comprised of one or more trustees and representatives from U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, the Funds’ administrator.  The function of the Valuation Committee is to value securities where current and reliable market quotations are not readily available.  All actions taken by the Valuation Committee are reviewed and ratified by the Board.
 
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 majority 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 the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
 
·  
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, 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.
 

 
 
 

 
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily 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, 2012:

Refer to the Funds’ Schedules of Investments for a detailed break-out of common stocks and preferred stocks by industry classification. Transfers between levels are recognized at October 31, 2012, the end of the reporting period.  The Enhanced Dividend Fund and Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund recognized no transfers to/from Level 1 or Level 2. In the All Cap Core Fund, a transfer in the amount of $37,917 was made from Level 1 to Level 2 at the end of the reporting period due to the lack of availability of a closing price on the primary U.S. exchange.  There were no Level 3 securities held in the Funds during the period ended October 31, 2012.
