Letter from the Portfolio Managers
 
Over the past 12 months we have experienced unprecedented market conditions which have permanently changed the landscape of our financial system. In a very short period of time, three of the five largest investment banking firms (Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch) either went out of business or were sold to other financial institutions. The remaining two (Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley) have converted to commercial bank status, which will require much more oversight and tighter capital and liquidity constraints. In addition, the government bailout of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and AIG has moved these massive institutions under governmental control. The impact is not only being felt in the US, but across global markets and worldwide economies.
 
Amidst the market turmoil, the US economy has slowed, unemployment has risen, and the housing market has continued to suffer. In reaction, nearly all stock markets and many of the bond markets have experienced declines. Stock markets gyrated wildly and record levels of volatility have become the norm.
 
International markets didn’t fare any better and in fact were generally down more than US markets as recession fears increased. Currency rates also worked against foreign returns as the dollar strengthened against many of the world’s currencies.
 
Bonds, which are generally viewed as less volatile investments during rough markets, were not able to avoid the sell-off. The exception was government bonds as investors avoided bonds with any perceived risk. Nearly all mortgage and corporate bonds were down through October, especially bonds issued by financial institutions that were struggling from the credit crisis. Even some short-term bond funds that were billed as more conservative bond investments  dropped in value with exposure to defaulting mortgage bonds.
 
Performance since inception on December 31, 2007 through the period ending October 31, 2008 for the ActivePassive Funds was as follows:
 
ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund
 
The ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund returned -34.67% for the since inception period ending October 31, 2008, versus the  Russell 1000 Growth Index return of -34.31% for the same period.  The passive component (Vanguard Growth ETF) outperformed the index slightly while the active component (Transamerica Investment Management, LLC) trailed slightly largely due to the weak performance of some of its technology holdings.
 
ActivePassive Large Cap Value Fund
 
The ActivePassive Large Cap Value Fund returned -33.27% for the since inception period ending October 31, 2008, versus the  Russell 1000 Value Index return of -32.90% for the same period. The passive component (Vanguard Value ETF) outperformed the index slightly while the active component (CS McKee, LP) trailed it slightly largely due to the weak performance of some of its energy holdings.

ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund
 
The ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund returned -41.00% for the since inception period ending October 31, 2008, versus the Russell 2500 Growth Index return of -37.25% for the same period.  Both the passive components (Vanguard Small-Cap Growth ETF and Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth ETF) and the active component (Ashfield Capital Partners, LLC) trailed the index. In particular, Ashfield’s performance was largely dragged down by some of its energy holdings.
 
ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Value Fund
 
The ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Value Fund returned -35.13% for the since inception period ending October 31, 2008, versus the Russell 2500 Value Index return of -28.18% for the same period.  Both the passive components (Vanguard Small-Cap Value ETF and Vanguard Mid-Cap Value ETF) and the active component (Transamerica Investment Management, LLC) trailed the index. In particular, Transamerica’s significant overweight in the energy sector weighed down performance.
 
ActivePassive International Equity Fund
 
The ActivePassive International Equity Fund returned -40.80% for the since inception period ending October 31, 2008, versus the MSCI EAFE Index return of -45.02% for the same period.  Both the passive component (iShares MSCI EAFE Index) and the active component (Invesco AIM Advisors, Inc.) outperformed the index.  Invesco AIM’s underweight in the financial sector was the main contributor to the outperformance.
 
ActivePassive Emerging Markets Equity Fund
 
The ActivePassive Emerging Markets Equity Fund returned -49.80% for the since inception period ending October 31, 2008, versus the MSCI Emerging Markets Index return of -54.20% for the same period.  Both the passive component (Vanguard Emerging Markets ETF) and the active component (Hansberger Global Investors, Inc) outperformed the index. Strong stock selection by Hansberger across various sectors contributed to the outperformance.
 
ActivePassive Global Bond Fund
 
The ActivePassive Global Bond Fund returned -9.45% for the since inception period ending October 31, 2008, versus the Merrill Lynch Global Broad Market Index return  of -4.09% for the same period.  Both the passive component (SPDR Lehman International Treasury Bond) and the active components (Loomis Sayles Global Bond Fund and Oppenheimer International Bond Fund) trailed the index largely due to their overweight in international and corporate bonds. The international exposure was hurt by the rising dollar and the corporate bond exposure was hurt by the flight to quality to Treasuries.

ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund
 
The ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund returned -2.97% for the since inception period ending October 31, 2008 versus the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (formerly known as Lehman Brothers) return of -1.74% for the same period.  Both the passive component (Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF) and the active component (Sage Advisory Services) trailed the index. Sage’s significant overweight in corporate bonds versus Treasuries, where they see little value, detracted from performance.
 
ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund
 
The ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund returned -4.54% for the since inception period ending October 31, 2008 versus the Barclays Capital U.S. Municipal Bond Index (formerly known as Lehman Brothers) return of -4.18% for the same period.  The passive component (iShares S&P National Municipal Bond Fund ETF and Markets Vectors-Lehman Brothers AMT-Free Intermediate Municipal Index ETF) outperformed the index slightly while the active component (Gannett, Welsh & Kotler, LLC) trailed it slightly largely due to its overweight in long-term municipal bonds.

Mutual fund investing involves risk.  Principal loss is possible. The fund are non-diversified, meaning that they may concentrate their assets in fewer individual holdings than a diversified fund. Therefore the fund is more exposed to individual stock volatility than a diversified fund. Investments in smaller companies involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility. Investments in foreign securities involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and difference in accounting methods. These risks can be significantly greater for investments in emerging markets. Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investments in lower-rated and non-rated securities present greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities. Income from tax exempt funds may be subject to state and local taxes and a portion of income may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for certain investors. Federal income tax rules will apply to any capital gains distributions. Investments in mortgage-backed securities may involve additional risks, such as credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity and default, and susceptibility to adverse economic developments. The funds will bear its share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds. Shareholders will pay higher expenses than would be the case if making direct investments in the underlying ETFs. Because the funds invests in ETFs, they are subject to additional risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including the risks that the market price of an ETF’s shares may trade at a discount to its net asset value (“NAV”), an active secondary trading market may not develop or be maintained, or trading may be halted by the exchange in which they trade, which may impact a fund’s ability to sell its shares.

ActivePassive Funds
EXPENSE EXAMPLE (Unaudited)
October 31, 2008

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs including exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1); 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 indicated and held for the entire period from May 1, 2008 to October 31, 2008.
 
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns 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 row entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.  There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as Individual Retirement Accounts (generally, a $15 fee is charged to the account annually) that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account.  The example below does not include portfolio trading commissions and related expenses, interest expense or other extraordinary expenses as determined under generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and 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 transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 2008
 
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION
 
The ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund, ActivePassive Large Cap Value Fund, ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund, ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Value Fund, ActivePassive International Equity Fund, ActivePassive Emerging Markets Equity Fund, ActivePassive Global Bond Fund, ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund and ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) are each 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 investment objective of the Funds, except for the ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund and the ActivePassive Global Bond Fund, is long term capital appreciation.  The investment objective of the ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund and the ActivePassive Global Bond Fund is income and capital appreciation.  The Funds are advised by FundQuest Incorporated.  The ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund and ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Value Fund are sub-advised by Transamerica Investment, LLC.  The ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund is sub-advised by Ashfield Capital Partners, LLC.  The ActivePassive International Equity Fund is sub-advised by Invesco AIM Advisors, Inc.  The ActivePassive Emerging Markets Equity Fund is sub-advised by Hansberger Global Investors, Inc.  The ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund is sub-advised by Sage Advisory Services Ltd.  The ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund is sub-advised by Gannett, Welsh & Kotler, LLC.  The Funds began operations on December 31, 2007.
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
A.
Security Valuation:  The Funds’ investments are valued at market value or, in the absence of a market value, at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor and the Trust’s Valuation Committee pursuant to procedures approved by or under the direction of the Board.  Pursuant to those procedures, the Board considers, among other things; the last sale price on the securities exchange, if any, on which a security is primarily traded; the mean between the bid and asked prices; price quotations form an approved pricing service, and other factors as necessary to determine a fair value under certain circumstances.  The Funds’ securities which are traded on securities exchanges are valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which such securities are traded, as of the close of business on the day the
 
 
76

 

ActivePassive Funds
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
October 31, 2008
 
 
securities are being valued or, lacking any reported sales, at the mean between the last available bid and asked price.  Securities that are traded on more than one exchange are valued on the exchange determined by the Advisor to be the primary market.  Securities primarily traded in the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation (“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 or if there has been no sale on such day, at the mean between the bid and asked prices.  Over-the-counter (“OTC”) securities which are not traded in the NASDAQ Global Market System shall be valued at the most recent trade price.  Short-term debt obligations with remaining maturities in excess of 60 days are valued at current market prices, as discussed above.  Short-term securities with 60 days or less remaining to maturity are, unless conditions indicate otherwise, amortized to maturity based on their cost to a Fund if acquired within 60 days of maturity or, if already held by the Fund on the 60th day, based on the value determined on the 61st day. All other assets of the Funds are valued in such manner as the Board in good faith deems appropriate to reflect their fair value.
 
B.
Federal Income Taxes:  It is the Funds’ 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.
 
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 ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund, ActivePassive Large Cap Value Fund, ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund, ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Value Fund, ActivePassive International Equity Fund and ActivePassive Emerging Markets Equity Fund will make distributions of dividends and capital gains, if any, at least annually, typically in December.  The Funds may make any additional payment of dividends or distributions if they deem it desirable at any other time during the year.  The ActivePassive Global Bond Fund, the ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund and the ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund distribute substantially all of their net investment income monthly and substantially all of their capital gains annually.  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 differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. To extent these book/tax differences are permanent, such amounts are reclassified within 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 reclassified between financial and tax reporting.  These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.  For the period ended October 31, 2008, the following tables shows the reclassifications made:

The permanent differences primarily relate to paydown and Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) adjustments with differing book and tax methods for accounting.
 
F.
Foreign Risk:  Investments in foreign securities entail certain risks.  There may be a possibility of nationalization or expropriation of assets, confiscatory taxation, political or financial instability, and diplomatic developments that could affect the value of the Funds’ investments in certain foreign countries.  Since foreign securities normally are denominated and traded in foreign currencies, the value of the Funds’ assets may be affect-

ActivePassive Funds

ed favorably or unfavorably by currency exchange rates, currency exchange control regulations, foreign withholding taxes, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies.  There may be less information publicly available about a foreign issuer than about a U.S. issuer, and foreign issuers are not generally subject to accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices comparable to those in the United States.  The securities of some foreign issuers are less liquid and at times more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.
 
 
In addition to securities traded principally in securities markets outside the United States and securities denominated in foreign currencies, the Fund may invest in American Depository Receipts (ADRs).  ADRs generally are U.S. dollar-denominated receipts issued by domestic banks representing the deposit with the bank of securities of a foreign issuer, and are traded on exchanges or over-the-counter in the United States.  Because an ADR represents an indirect investment in securities of a foreign issuer, investments in ADRs are subject to the risks associated with foreign securities generally, as described above.
 
G.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes:  The Funds adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, a classification of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.  FIN 48 establishes financial reporting rules regarding recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return.  The adoption of FIN 48 had no impact on the Funds’ net assets or results of operations.
 
H.
Fair Value Measurements:  In September 2006, FASB issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”.  This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  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.

Recently Issued 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 derivate 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 Funds’ financial statement disclosures, if any, is currently being assessed.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Trustees Advisors Series Trust and
Shareholders of The Active Passive Funds
 
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund, ActivePassive Large Cap Value Fund, ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund, ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Value Fund, ActivePassive International Equity Fund, ActivePassive Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Active Passive Global Bond Fund, ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund, and ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, each a series of Advisors Series Trust (the “Trust”), including the schedule of investments, as of October 31, 2008, and the related statements of operations, the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the period December 31, 2007 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 2008.  These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement.  The Trusts are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trusts’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2008, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ActivePassive Large Cap Growth Fund, ActivePassive Large Cap Value Fund, ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund, ActivePassive Small/Mid Cap Value Fund, ActivePassive International Equity Fund, ActivePassive Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Active Passive Global Bond Fund, ActivePassive Intermediate Taxable Bond Fund, and ActivePassive Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund as of October 31, 2008, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets and their financial highlights for the period December 31, 2007 to October 31, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The percentage of fees billed by Tait, Weller, & Weller 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.
