Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization

 

BBR ALO Fund, LLC (the “Fund”) is a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Fund was organized as a Delaware limited liability company on January 10, 2020, and commenced operations on May 1, 2020. BBR Partners, LLC serves as the investment adviser to the Fund (the “Adviser”), and each of Maren Capital LLC (“Maren”), AllianceBernstein L.P. (“AllianceBernstein”), Quantum Capital Management, LLC (“Quantum”) and Summit Street Capital Management, LLC (“Summit Street” and, collectively with Maren, AllianceBernstein and Quantum, the “Subadvisers”) has been engaged to directly manage specified portions of the Fund’s assets. The Adviser and each Subadviser is registered as an investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.

 

AllianceBernstein commenced providing subadvisory services to the Fund on June 30, 2025. On April 28, 2025, the Adviser provided notice to Polen Capital Management, LLC (“Polen”) , a then-current subadviser of the Fund, of the termination of the subadvisory agreement among the Adviser, the Fund and Polen, pursuant to its terms, to be effective after the close of business on June 27, 2025. At a special meeting of Fund investors held on June 27, 2025, upon the recommendation of the Board and further to the Board’s respective approvals at a meeting held on May 22, 2025, Fund investors approved a new subadvisory agreement with AllianceBernstein. Results of the meeting of Fund investors are reported under Special Investor Meeting Results.

 

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by deploying its assets among a select group of long-biased equity investment managers (the “Investment Managers”), and the unregistered investment vehicles (the “Investment Funds”) and/or accounts they operate. In addition to allocating Fund assets to Investment Funds, the Adviser may allocate Fund assets to accounts operated by Investment Managers pursuant to subadvisory agreements with such Investment Managers.

 

Long-biased investing generally involves buying securities with the expectation that their price will increase. Investment Managers that employ long-biased equity strategies typically seek to capitalize on discrepancies between an evaluation of the intrinsic value of an equity security and assessment of the forward-looking prospects of the issuer of the security, and the consensus view reflected in the market price of such security. Investment Managers generally will invest primarily in equity securities and equity-linked instruments in U.S. and global markets, including emerging markets, to create long-biased holdings in various positions, sectors and/or countries. Investment Managers may focus on a particular capitalization range (e.g., small cap vs. large cap) or industry sector (e.g., healthcare, technology or consumer products), may employ a specific investment style (e.g., value vs. growth) or may pursue a broad mandate without specific regard for capitalization, sector or geography. Certain Investment Managers also may seek to extract value by being more trading-oriented or catalyst-driven.

 

Subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act, the business and affairs of the Fund are managed under the direction of its Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Board has the right, power and authority, on behalf of the Fund and in its name, to do all things necessary and proper to carry out its duties under the Fund’s Limited Liability Company Agreement, as amended and restated from time to time. Each Director is vested with the same powers, authority and responsibilities on behalf of the Fund as are customarily vested in each director of a closed-end management investment company registered under the 1940 Act that is organized under Delaware law. The Board may delegate the management of the Fund’s day-to-day operations to one or more officers or other persons (including, without limitation, the Adviser), subject to the investment objective and policies of the Fund and to the oversight of the Board. The Board has engaged the Adviser to manage the day-to-day operations of the Fund, and the Subadvisers to manage allocated portions of the Fund’s assets.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Fund is an investment company and follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Valuation of Investments

 

The 1940 Act provides that securities for which market quotations are “readily available” must be valued at market value, and all other securities and other assets must be valued at “fair value” in accordance with requirements under the 1940 Act. The Board has approved procedures pursuant to which the Fund values its investments (the “Valuation Procedures”), and has designated the Adviser as its “valuation designee” (as defined in Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act) to determine fair value in good faith for all Fund investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Fund’s assets managed by the Subadvisers are valued in accordance with the Valuation Procedures. The value of the Fund’s assets will be based on information reasonably available on each date on which the Fund calculates its net asset value (each, a “Determination Date”) and that the Adviser believes to be reliable.

 

Publicly-traded equity securities are valued, except as indicated below, at the last sale price on the Determination Date on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities primarily are traded (a “primary market”). If there has been no sale on such day, the securities are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked quotations or, if no asked quotations for such security are available, at the most recent bid quotation on such exchange or market on the Determination Date.

 

Equity-linked instruments are valued based on the value of the underlying reference asset(s) and the terms of the instrument (e.g., an interest rate) to approximate what the Fund would receive on a current termination of the instrument. Such reference asset(s) are valued in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Valuation Procedures.

 

Debt securities and instruments, if any, generally are valued, to the extent possible, by an independent pricing service approved by the Adviser. Each pricing service provides an evaluated price based on its proprietary methodologies, which may use a variety of inputs, models and assumptions based on its methodology for a particular type of security. Debt securities and instruments for which valuation is not provided by a pricing service are valued using an evaluated price provided by Bloomberg, and if Bloomberg does not provide a price, then the security generally will be valued by obtaining prices from broker/dealers on the Determination Date. Overnight and certain other short-term debt securities and instruments with maturities of less than 60 days (excluding U.S. Treasury bills) are valued by the amortized cost method, unless a pricing service provides a valuation for such security, or, in the opinion of the Adviser, the amortized cost method would not represent fair value on the Determination Date.

 

Derivative instruments, if any, which may be used for hedging and non-hedging purposes, are valued in accordance with the Valuation Procedures. Certain derivatives may be valued (i) by pricing services approved by the Adviser, (ii) based on the value of the underlying reference asset(s), (iii) at their last sale price on the primary market, (iv) using evaluated pricing available from Bloomberg, (v) using a quotation obtained from an independent broker/dealer, (vi) at their intrinsic value, (vii) at the most recent settlement price, (viii) at their acquisition cost until such time as market prices become available or (ix) at their fair value determined by the Valuation Committee (as defined below), as applicable.

 

Securities for which market prices are not readily available and securities for which quotations are deemed by the Adviser to be unreliable are fair valued or otherwise valued in accordance with the Valuation Procedures. The Board has approved the formation of a committee established by the Adviser to oversee the valuation of the Fund’s investments pursuant to the Valuation Procedures (the “Valuation Committee”), and assist in the valuation of such securities. Circumstances in which market prices may not be readily available include, but are not limited to, when an exchange or market is not open for trading for an entire trading day or closes early, or trading in a particular security is halted, and no other market prices are available. In these circumstances, portfolio management personnel of the Fund, the Adviser or the Subadvisers will seek to determine whether to recommend an adjustment to the last sale price on the primary market, and the Valuation Committee will meet as necessary, in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

 

The Adviser generally will value the Fund’s investment in any Investment Funds using the “practical expedient,” in accordance with ASC Topic 820, based on the valuation provided to the Adviser by the Investment Fund in accordance with the Investment Fund’s own valuation policies, provided that the Investment Fund falls within the scope of ASC 946. The fair value of investments in Investment Funds ordinarily will be the carrying amount (book value) of the Fund’s interest in such investments, as provided to the Fund by the Investment Managers as of or prior to the relevant Determination Date. The Valuation Procedures, however, require the consideration of all relevant information reasonably available at the time the Fund values its portfolio. As a result, the Adviser may conclude in certain circumstances that the information provided by an Investment Manager does not represent the fair value of the Fund’s interests in an Investment Fund. In accordance with the Valuation Procedures, in the absence of specific transaction activity in interests in a particular Investment Fund, the Adviser

BBR ALO Fund, LLC

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

will consider whether it is appropriate, in light of all relevant circumstances, to value the Fund’s interest in an Investment Fund based on the net asset value reported by the Investment Manager, or whether to adjust such value to reflect a premium or discount to net asset value. Any such decision will be made in good faith, and subject to the review and supervision of the Board.

 

The valuations reported by the Investment Managers, upon which the Fund will calculate its month-end net asset value, may be subject to later adjustment based on information reasonably available at that time. In the event that an Investment Fund does not report a month-end value to the Fund on a timely basis, the Fund will determine the fair value of such Investment Fund based on the most recent final or estimated value reported by the Investment Fund, as well as any other relevant information available at the time the Fund values its portfolio.

 

In general, fair value represents a good faith approximation of the current value of an asset and will be used when there is no public market or possibly no market at all for the asset. The fair values of one or more assets may not be the prices at which those assets ultimately are sold, and the differences may be significant.

 

Investment Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses

 

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income and expense is recorded net of applicable withholding taxes on the ex-dividend date and interest income and expense is recorded on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, if applicable, are paid (a portion of which may be reclaimable) or provided for in accordance with the applicable country’s tax rules and rates and are disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Fund accounts for distributions received from investments as dividend income, realized gain, or return of capital based on information provided by the company. Withholding tax reclaims are filed in certain countries to recover a portion of the amounts previously withheld. The Fund records a reclaim receivable based on a number of factors, including a jurisdiction’s legal obligation to pay reclaims as well as payment history and market convention.

 

Currency Translation

 

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and commitments under forward currency exchange contracts are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the quoted bid and ask prices of such currencies against the U.S. dollar. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange prevailing when such securities were acquired or sold. Income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at rates of exchange prevailing when accrued.

 

Net realized gain or loss on foreign currency transactions represents foreign exchange gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign fixed income investments, holding of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on foreign investment transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized currency gains and losses from valuing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities at period-end exchange rates are reflected as a component of net unrealized appreciation or depreciation of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires Fund 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 operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash includes cash equivalents of $139,630,328 consisting of highly liquid money market funds that are readily convertible into cash. Such securities with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying amount of these securities approximates fair value. Cash is held in financial institutions and, at times, may exceed federal insured limits. At September 30, 2025, cash on the statement of financial condition includes $139,630,328 invested in the Fidelity Treasury Fund (FISXX).

3. Select Risk Factors

 

The Fund’s investments may expose the Fund to various risk factors including, but not limited to the following:

 

Investment Risk. All investments risk the loss of capital. The value of the Fund’s total net assets is expected to fluctuate. To the extent that the Fund’s portfolio is concentrated in issuers in a single sector, the risk of any investment decision is increased. While the Adviser believes that the Fund’s investment program will moderate this risk to some degree through multiple Investment Managers, no guarantee or representation is made that the Fund’s investment program will be diversified or successful.

 

An investment in the Fund involves a high degree of risk, including the risk that the investor’s entire investment may be lost. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved. The Fund’s performance depends upon the Adviser’s selection of Investment Managers, the allocation of offering proceeds thereto and the performance of the Investment Managers, including the Subadvisers, and the Investment Funds. The Investment Managers’ investment activities involve the use of strategies and investment techniques with significant risk characteristics, including risks arising from national or international economic conditions, volatility in the global equity, currency, real estate and fixed-income markets, shifts in macro-economic fundamentals, the risks of short sales, the risks of leverage, the potential illiquidity of securities and derivative instruments, the risk of loss from counterparty defaults and the risk of borrowing to meet withdrawal requests, as well as acts of God, uninsurable losses, war, terrorism, earthquakes, hurricanes or floods and other factors which are beyond the control of the Fund or the Investment Managers. No assurance can be given that: (i) the Investment Managers’ investment programs, strategies, decisions and activities will be successful; (ii) the Investment Managers will achieve their return expectations; (iii) the Investment Managers will achieve any return of capital invested; or (iv) investors will not suffer losses from an investment in the Fund. All investments made by the Investment Managers risk the loss of capital. The Investment Managers’ results may vary substantially over time.

 

Market Disruption and Geopolitical Risk. Market risks, including political, regulatory, market, economic and social developments, and developments that impact specific economic sectors, industries or segments of the market, can affect the value and liquidity of the Fund’s and the Investment Funds’ investments. In addition, turbulence and reduced liquidity in financial markets may negatively affect Investment Managers, Investment Funds and issuers, which could adversely affect the Fund. Stock prices may experience greater volatility during periods of challenging market conditions. As a result, during these periods, the Fund’s net asset value will fluctuate, an investor may experience a significant decline in the value of its investment and it could lose money.

 

The Adviser’s business activities, as well as the activities of the Fund, the Investment Funds and their operations and investments, could be materially adversely affected by outbreaks of disease, epidemics and public health issues, which can exacerbate pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries or regions and trigger a prolonged period of global economic slowdown. Recent examples include pandemic risks related to COVID-19 (notably, its significant negative impact on economic and market conditions and global supply chains, and the aggressive measures taken worldwide in response by governments and businesses) and geopolitical risks related to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine and conflict(s) in the Middle East, the imposition of tariffs on and trade disputes with certain countries and other geopolitical tensions, hostilities and instability. To the extent the Fund or the Investment Funds have significant investments in certain countries, regions, companies, industries or market sectors, such positions will increase the risk of loss from adverse developments affecting those countries, regions, companies, industries or sectors.

 

As of the date hereof, there is uncertainty with respect to legislation, regulation and government policy at the federal, state and local levels, notably as respects U.S. fiscal, tax, trade, healthcare, energy, immigration, foreign and government regulatory policy. Recent events have created a climate of heightened uncertainty and introduced new and difficult-to-quantify macroeconomic and geopolitical risks with potentially far-reaching implications. There has been a corresponding meaningful increase in the uncertainty surrounding interest rates, tax rates, inflation, energy costs, foreign exchange rates, trade volumes and fiscal and monetary policy. To the extent the U.S. Congress or the White House implements additional changes to U.S. policy, those changes may impact, among other things, the U.S. and global economy, international trade and relations, the U.S. regulatory environment, corporate taxes, inflation, healthcare, unemployment and immigration, among other areas. Until any additional policy changes are finalized, it cannot be known whether the Fund and its investments or future investments may be positively or negatively affected, or the impact of continuing uncertainty.

 

Equity Securities. An Investment Fund’s and the Fund’s portfolio may include positions in common stocks, preferred stocks and convertible securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers. Investment Managers may focus on investments within specific sectors, countries and/or regions. Investment Managers also may invest in depositary receipts or shares relating to non-U.S. securities. Equity securities fluctuate in value in response to many factors, including the activities and financial condition

3. Select Risk Factors (continued)

 

of individual companies, the business market in which individual companies compete and general market and economic conditions. Investment Managers may invest in equity securities without restriction as to market capitalization, such as those issued by smaller capitalization companies, including micro-cap companies. Investment Managers may purchase securities in all available securities trading markets, including initial public offerings and the aftermarket.

 

Investment Approach. Investment Funds are not registered as investment companies under the 1940 Act. The Fund, as an investor in an Investment Fund, does not have the benefit of the protections afforded by the 1940 Act to investors in registered investment companies. Although the Adviser periodically receives information from the Investment Fund regarding its investment performance and investment strategies, the Adviser may have little or no means of independently verifying this information. An Investment Manager may use proprietary investment strategies that are not fully disclosed to the Adviser, and such strategies may involve risks that are not anticipated by the Adviser. Investment Managers may change their investment strategies (i.e., may experience style drift) at any time. In addition, the Fund and the Adviser have no control over an Investment Fund’s investment management, brokerage, custodial arrangements or operations, and must rely on the experience and competency of the Investment Manager in these areas. The performance of the Fund depends on the success of the Adviser in selecting Investment Managers for investment by the Fund and the allocation and reallocation of Fund assets among Investment Managers.

 

Investment Managers make investment decisions independently of each other so that, at any particular time, Investment Managers may buy, sell or hold similar positions at the same time. Alternatively, an Investment Manager may purchase shares in an issuer that at the same time are being sold by another Investment Manager; transactions of this sort could result in the Fund’s directly or indirectly incurring certain transaction costs without accomplishing any net investment result. Because the Fund may make additional investments in or withdraw from Investment Managers only at certain times due to restrictions imposed by the Investment Managers or Investment Funds, the Fund may, from time to time, temporarily invest some of its assets in money market securities, money market funds, or other similar types of investments.

 

Investment Funds may permit or require that withdrawals or redemptions of interests be made in-kind, or in part in cash and in part in-kind. The Fund may receive securities that are illiquid or difficult to value upon its withdrawal of all or a portion of its interest in an Investment Fund. In addition, Investment Funds may impose so-called “gates,” limiting the proportion of assets investors, including the Fund, may withdraw on any single withdrawal date. The Fund may otherwise not be able to withdraw from an Investment Fund except at specified times, thereby limiting the Adviser’s ability to withdraw assets from an Investment Fund that may have poor performance or for other reasons.

 

4. Fair Value Disclosures

 

The Fund discloses the fair value of its investments in accordance with FASB ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements”, which establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurement). FASB ASC 820-10-35-40 to 54 provides three levels of fair value as listed below.

 

 

Level 1 – Inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

 

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 that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available.

 

The notion of unobservable inputs is intended to allow for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. Under Level 3, the owner of an asset must determine fair value based on its own assumptions about what market participants would take into account in determining the fair value of the asset, using the best information available.

4. Fair Value Disclosures (continued)

 

The inputs or methodology for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement; however, the determination of what constitutes “observable” requires significant judgment by the Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee considers observable data to be market data that is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.

5. Investment Advisory and Other Agreements

 

The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Adviser. In consideration of services provided, the Fund pays the Adviser a unitary management fee, computed and payable monthly in arrears, at an annual rate of 0.80% of the Fund’s net asset value (the “Investment Advisory Fee”). In turn, the Adviser pays substantially all operating expenses of the Fund, except fees and expenses of the Investment Funds, the fees payable to the Subadvisers, interest expenses, taxes, portfolio transaction-related fees and expenses, costs of borrowing, litigation and indemnification expenses, and any other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. For the period ended September 30, 2025, the Fund accrued fees to the Adviser of $7,167,185, of which $5,893,099 was paid during the period.

 

Each of Maren, AllianceBernstein, Quantum and Summit Street has been engaged to directly manage specified portions of the Fund’s assets pursuant to subadvisory agreements with each Subadviser. In consideration of the subadvisory services provided to the Fund by the Subadvisers, the Fund pays a fee, calculated based on the net asset value of the respective allocated portion of the Fund’s assets, to each Subadviser (the “Subadvisory Fees”). For the period ended September 30, 2025, the weighted average aggregate fee payable by the Fund to the Subadvisers and Polen, as applicable, was 0.44% of the allocable portion of the Fund’s assets managed by the Subadvisers and Polen. For the period ended September 30, 2025, the Fund accrued fees to the Subadvisers of $4,006,875, of which $3,300,355 was paid during the period.

 

For purposes of determining the Investment Advisory Fee payable to the Adviser for any month, “net asset value” means the total value of all assets of the Fund as of the end of such month, less an amount equal to all accrued debts, liabilities and obligations of the Fund as of such date, and calculated before giving effect to any repurchase of Shares on such date and before any reduction for any fees and expenses of the Fund. For purposes of determining the Subadvisory Fees payable to each Subadviser, “net asset value” means the total value of the assets of the Fund allocated to the Subadviser as of the end of a month or quarter, as the case may be, less a pro rata portion of all accrued debts, liabilities and obligations of the Fund as of such date, and calculated before giving effect to any repurchase of shares on such date and before any reduction for any fees and expenses of the Fund. The Investment Advisory Fee and the Subadvisory Fees are prorated for any partial period based on the number of days in such period. The Investment Advisory Fee and the Subadvisory Fees are paid to the Adviser and the Subadvisers, respectively, out of the Fund’s assets and, therefore, will decrease the net profits or increase the net losses of the Fund. The Investment Advisory Fee and the Subadvisory Fees are in addition to the asset-based fees, incentive fees or allocations, if applicable, and other expenses charged by the Investment Funds and indirectly borne by investors.

5. Investment Advisory and Other Agreements (continued)

 

UMB Fund Services, Inc. serves as administrator (the “Administrator”) to the Fund and provides certain accounting, administrative, record keeping and investor related services. In consideration of these services, the Adviser pays the Administrator, out of the Investment Advisory Fee, certain annual fees subject to a minimum fee of $215,000, in addition to certain other fixed and transactional fees, and reimburses certain of the Administrator’s expenses. During the period ended September 30, 2025, the Adviser paid the Administrator $212,747.

 

UMB Bank, n.a., an affiliate of the Administrator, serves as the primary custodian of the assets of the Fund, and may maintain custody of such assets with U.S. and non-U.S. sub-custodians, securities depositories and clearing agencies.

 

6. Federal Income Taxes

 

The Fund has elected to be treated, and intends to operate in a manner so as to qualify continuously, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Assuming that the Fund continues to so qualify, the Fund generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income and gains that it distributes to investors.

 

In accounting for income taxes, the Fund follows the guidance in FASB ASC 740, as amended by Accounting Standards Update 2009-06, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 prescribes the minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken by an entity before being measured and recognized in the financial statements. Fund management has concluded there were no uncertain tax positions as of the period ended September 30, 2025 for federal income tax purposes or in the Fund’s major state and local tax jurisdiction of Delaware.

 

Because U.S. federal income tax regulations differ from U.S. GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect the applicable tax characterization. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future. The tax basis components of distributable earnings may differ from the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities due to temporary book/tax differences arising primarily from partnership investments. These amounts will be finalized before filing the Fund’s federal tax return.

 

At September 30, 2025, gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments, based on cost for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

 

Cost of investments

  $ 1,382,151,061  

Gross unrealized appreciation

  $ 449,049,954  

Gross unrealized depreciation

    (43,408,359 )

Net unrealized appreciation on investments

  $ 405,641,595  

 

The difference between cost amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes is due primarily to timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses in security transactions.

 

7. Investment Transactions

 

For the period ended September 30, 2025, the purchase and sale of investments in securities, excluding short-term investments and U.S. Government securities, were $671,334,376 and $620,967,451, respectively.

 

8. Capital Share Transactions

 

The Fund offers Shares on a continuous basis. Shares may be purchased as of the first business day of each month at the Fund’s then current net asset value per Share.

 

The Fund, from time to time, may provide liquidity to investors by offering to repurchase Shares pursuant to written tenders by investors. Repurchases will be made at such times and on such terms as may be determined by the Board in its complete and exclusive discretion. In determining whether the Fund should repurchase Shares from investors pursuant to written

BBR ALO Fund, LLC

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2025 (Unaudited) (continued)

 

 

8. Capital Share Transactions (continued)

 

tenders, the Fund’s Board will consider the recommendation of the Adviser. The Adviser expects that each repurchase offer will apply to a predetermined percentage of the net assets of the Fund, and that it will recommend to the Board that the Fund offer to repurchase Shares from investors on a quarterly basis, with such repurchases to occur as of each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 (or, if any such date is not a business day, on the immediately preceding business day).

 

The Fund expects that dividends will be paid annually on the Shares in amounts representing substantially all of the net investment income, if any, earned each year. Payments on the Shares may vary in amount depending on investment income received and expenses of operation; however, in order to continue to qualify as a RIC, substantially all of any taxable net capital gain realized on investments will be paid to investors at least annually.

 

For the period ended September 30, 2025, transactions in Shares were as follows:

 

Shares outstanding, April 1, 2025

    123,741,744  

Shares issued

    7,733,646  

Shares reinvested

     

Shares repurchased

    (5,204,705 )

Shares outstanding, September 30, 2025

    126,270,685  

 

9. Indemnification

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these agreements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund, and therefore cannot be established; however, the Fund expects the risk of loss from such claims to be remote.

 

10. Subsequent Events

 

Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Fund through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no subsequent events to report.

Approval of New Subadvisory Agreement (Unaudited)

 

 

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of BBR ALO Fund, LLC (the “Fund”), including the Directors who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the Fund (the “Independent Directors”), considered the approval of a subadvisory agreement among the Fund, BBR Partners, LLC (the “Adviser”) and AllianceBernstein L.P. (“AllianceBernstein”) (the “Proposed Subadvisory Agreement”) at a meeting held on May 22, 2025.

 

In determining whether to approve the Proposed Subadvisory Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Directors, reviewed and discussed with management materials furnished by AllianceBernstein in response to formal requests for information relevant to the Board’s deliberations, including: information regarding the AllianceBernstein, its personnel, operations and financial conditions and the services it proposed to provide to the Fund; and comparative fee and performance information. The Independent Directors also met in an executive session, during which they had the opportunity to discuss with counsel the approval of the Proposed Subadvisory Agreement and the duties and responsibilities of board members in connection with considering the approval of subadvisory agreements.

 

In considering the approval of the Proposed Subadvisory Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Directors, considered all factors that it believed to be relevant, including those discussed below. The Board did not identify any one factor as dispositive, and each Board member may have attributed different weights to the factors considered.

 

(i) The nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by AllianceBernstein: The Board reviewed the services that AllianceBernstein would provide to the Fund, including generally managing the Fund’s investments in accordance with the stated policies of the Fund. The Board also discussed the amount of time AllianceBernstein would dedicate to the Fund and the type of transactions that would be effected on behalf of the Fund. The Board also considered AllianceBernstein’s investment philosophies and investment processes with respect to, and the investment outlook for, the Fund. In addition, the Board considered the education, background and experience of AllianceBernstein’s advisory and other personnel proposing to provide services to the Fund. The Board then considered certain administrative services to be provided by AllianceBernstein to the Fund, including general administrative and compliance services and assistance in meeting certain legal and regulatory requirements. The Board acknowledged AllianceBernstein’s engagement of skilled investment professionals, research analysts and administrative, legal and compliance staff members to seek to ensure that a high level of quality in compliance and administrative services would be provided to the Fund. Accordingly, the Board concluded that the quality and scope of services to be offered by AllianceBernstein to the Fund was appropriate and supported approval of the Proposed Subadvisory Agreement.

 

(ii) Investment performance of AllianceBernstein: Because AllianceBernstein had not yet commenced providing subadvisory services to the Fund, the Board recognized the limitations regarding its ability to evaluate the investment performance of AllianceBernstein in managing a portion of the Fund’s assets. The Board, however, reviewed AllianceBernstein’s historical performance record in managing registered funds and separately managed accounts that have investment objectives similar to that of the Fund and investment mandates and strategies similar to those to be employed by AllianceBernstein. The Board also discussed with representatives of the Adviser the investment strategies to be employed by AllianceBernstein in the management of its portion of the Fund’s assets. The Board noted AllianceBernstein’s reputation and experience with respect to the proposed investment strategies to be employed as respects the portion of the Fund’s assets to be allocated to AllianceBernstein, the portfolio managers’ experience with such investment strategies and the Adviser’s experience and reputation in selecting, evaluating and overseeing the Fund’s then-current subadvisers. Based on its consideration and review of the foregoing information, the Board concluded that these factors supported a decision to approve the Proposed Subadvisory Agreement.

 

(iii) Fees to be paid to AllianceBernstein: The Board reviewed the fees to be paid by the Fund to AllianceBernstein, and compared the fees to those being charged by AllianceBernstein to other funds and accounts managed by AllianceBernstein that are comparable to the portion of the Fund’s assets to be managed by AllianceBernstein in terms of investment strategies and policies and other relevant criteria. The Board noted that the fee rate to be paid by the Fund to AllianceBernstein was comparable to that of a similarly-situated account managed within the AB International Strategic Core Strategy. The Board determined that the fees to be paid under the Proposed Subadvisory Agreement did not constitute fees that are so disproportionately large as to bear no reasonable relationship to the services rendered and that could not have been the product of arm’s-length bargaining.

 

(iv) The costs of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by AllianceBernstein and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund: The Board considered the fees to be paid to AllianceBernstein, the competitiveness of those fees, which had been negotiated at arm’s length between the Adviser and AllianceBernstein, and the level of services to be provided by AllianceBernstein. The Board considered the fact that, since AllianceBernstein had not yet commenced providing subadvisory

 

23

Approval of New Subadvisory Agreement (Unaudited) (continued)

 

 

services to the Fund, AllianceBernstein were not yet able to provide the Board with specific information concerning the cost of services to be provided to the Fund and the expected profits to be realized by AllianceBernstein. The Board determined to revisit this issue no later than when it next reviewed the Proposed Subadvisory Agreement following its initial term.

 

(v) The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels would reflect such economies of scale: The Board considered potential or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services AllianceBernstein would provide to the Fund. The Board noted that the Adviser had negotiated a competitive fee with AllianceBernstein. The Board concluded that the fee was appropriate at this time, and that it will have the opportunity to periodically re-examine whether any economies of scale were appropriately reflected in the fees paid by the Fund to AllianceBernstein.

 

Based on the foregoing and other relevant considerations, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, acting within its business judgment: (i) determined that approval of the Proposed Subadvisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and shareholders; (ii) voted to approve the Proposed Subadvisory Agreement; and (iii) voted to recommend approval of the Proposed Subadvisory Agreement by shareholders of the Fund.

Proxy Voting

 

A description of the policies and procedures used by the Fund to determine how to vote proxies is available: (i) without charge, upon request, by calling the Fund at (212) 313-9870; and (ii) on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

 

The Fund is required to file, on Form N-PX, its complete proxy voting record for the 12-month period ended June 30, no later than August 31. The Fund’s Form N-PX filing is available: (i) without charge, upon request, by calling the Fund at (212) 313-9870; and (ii) on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

 

Availability of Quarterly Portfolio Schedules

 

The Fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year as an exhibit to its report on Form N-PORT. The Fund’s Form N-PORT reports are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or by calling the Fund at (212) 313-9870.

 

Dividend Reinvestment Program

 

The Fund has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to which distributions of dividends and capital gains (“Dividends”) paid by the Fund will be automatically reinvested in additional Shares of the Fund by UMB Fund Services, Inc., as agent of the Plan (the “Plan Agent”), unless an investor “opts out” (elects not to reinvest in Shares). An investor that elects not to participate in the Plan will receive Dividends in cash, paid by the Plan Agent, as Dividend disbursing agent, directly to the investor’s account, which will be the same account from which investments and any other payments required as a condition to the investor’s investment in the Fund will be made by the investor. Even if an investor does not participate in the Plan, however, the Fund will have the ability to declare a large portion of Dividends in Shares instead of in cash. The tax treatment of dividends and capital gain distributions will be the same whether the investor takes them in cash or reinvests them to purchase additional Shares.

 

The Plan Agent serves as agent for the Fund’s investors in administering the Plan. After the Fund declares a Dividend, the Plan Agent will, as agent for the investors, distribute newly-issued Shares on behalf of the participants. The number of Shares to be issued will be computed at a per share rate equal to the net asset value per Share on the Dividend payment date. There is no sales charge or other charge for reinvestment. The Fund reserves the right to suspend or limit at any time the ability of investors to reinvest distributions. Additional information regarding the reinvestment of distributions may be obtained by contacting the Adviser at the number noted herein. The Plan Agent’s fees for the handling of reinvestment of Dividends are paid by the Adviser. The automatic reinvestment of Dividends will not relieve participants of any income tax that may be payable or required to be withheld on such Dividends.

 

Investors may elect initially not to reinvest by indicating that choice in their subscription agreement. Thereafter, investors are free to change their election at any time by contacting the Adviser at (212) 313-9870. Such withdrawal will be effective immediately if received not less than ten days prior to a Dividend record date; otherwise, it will be effective for all subsequent Dividends.

 

The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time. All correspondence concerning the Plan should be directed to the Adviser at (212) 313-9870.

AllianceBernstein. Kent Hargis and Brian Holland have served as the portfolio managers of the portion of the Fund's assets that are allocated to Alliance Bernstein since June 2025.

 

Mr. Hargis, who joined AllianceBernstein in 2003, is the Chief Investment Officer of Strategic Core Equities at AllianceBernstein.

Mr. Hargis also has been portfolio manager for the Global Low Carbon Strategy Portfolio since 2022, and managed the Emerging Portfolio from 2015 through 2023.

 

Mr. Holland, who joined AllianceBernstein in 2004, is a Portfolio Manager and Senior Research Analyst for International Strategic Core Equities at AllianceBernstein. He joined the Strategic Core Equities team as a Senior Research Analyst in 2022 and was appointed Portfolio Manager of International Strategic Core Equities effective January 2023. From 2014 to 2022, Mr. Holland was a senior research analyst on the US Small and Mid Cap Value team, responsible for coverage of technology and materials companies.

Conflicts of Interest. AllianceBernstein provides advisory services to other clients that invest in securities of the same type in which the Fund invests. As a result, there may be an incentive to favor one vehicle or account over another, resulting in conflicts of interest. AllianceBernstein is aware of its obligation to ensure that, when orders for the same securities are entered on behalf of the Fund and other accounts, the Fund receives a fair and equitable allocation of the orders, particularly where affiliated accounts may participate. AllianceBernstein has adopted various compliance policies and procedures that it believes are reasonably designed to address various conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with its management of other accounts and investment vehicles, and that provide a methodology for seeking to ensure fair treatment of all clients.
