International Equity Portfolio Commentary (Unaudited)
The Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust International Equity Portfolio (the Fund) Class S posted a total return of -22.69% for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the reporting period), trailing the -14.45% total return of its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE® Index (Net) (the Index) for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)
International developed markets, as measured by the Index, rallied in the fourth quarter, ending an otherwise discouraging year on a positive note. With the fourth quarter’s 17% rebound, the Index outperformed both U.S. and emerging markets equities (as measured by the S&P 500® and MSCI Emerging Markets Indexes, respectively) for the reporting period, though each index lost value overall.
Inflation was the most significant factor impacting performance. Inflation surged on supply chain disruptions, pent-up consumer demand, and rising energy costs—results of the pandemic and war in Ukraine. Interest rate hikes aimed at fighting inflation were also disruptive, heightening fears of global recession. By the fourth quarter, however, inflation appeared to have peaked, and sentiment turned positive.
Within the Index, the Energy sector outperformed, benefiting from supply/demand imbalances. All other sectors lost value, with Financials and Materials declining least, and Information Technology (IT), Consumer Discretionary and Real Estate losing the most. By country, Portugal was slightly positive, and Hong Kong, Denmark and the UK declined the least. Sweden, the Netherlands and Israel lost the most value.
Stock selection detracted from relative performance during the reporting period. Value investing significantly outperformed growth, meaning the types of companies that meet our Quality-at-a-Reasonable-Price parameters were out of favor. Materials—where we had no direct exposure to the Metals & Mining industry—and Consumer Discretionary and Health Care holdings detracted most. By country, UK-based, Japanese and French names lagged.
Techtronic, the Hong Kong-listed power tool manufacturer, was a key detractor, falling on concerns that rising interest rates would slow U.S. housing demand and retail/DIY spending. Japan’s Sony declined on concerns that inflation would dampen consumer spending. We remain positive on both names.
Our IT and Communications Services holdings outperformed, and stock selection within Energy was beneficial. By country, U.S.-listed foreign multinationals and Swedish and Swiss names added relative value. Schlumberger, the multinational oil-services name, was our top contributor, followed by France’s TotalEnergies.
While global equity markets, as measured by the MSCI All Country World Index (Net), suffered their worst year since 2008, the Index finished the year ahead of the S&P 500 Index for only the second time in a decade, despite the strength of the U.S. dollar (rising almost 8%), the war in Ukraine, and the related European energy crisis.
Earnings in Europe and Japan remained resilient, and surpassed U.S. earnings regardless of these headwinds. Additionally, the era of low rates and low inflation that buoyed the growth-dominated U.S. markets appears to be over, ushering in a possible return to the "old normal" of higher rates and inflation.
In such an environment, we believe shorter duration, real economy stocks could be better positioned, because they should benefit from higher nominal growth, plus investors tend to prefer their predictable, near-term cash flows during periods of high or rising rates. Given international markets have greater exposure to these stocks, it is our view that 2022 may portend the beginning of a longer period of outperformance for international markets versus domestic markets, more akin to the 2002-07 and 1983-88 cycles, than brief periods such as 2017.
Broad optimism about international equities may not necessarily translate into attractive absolute returns in the short term, however. We believe that the fourth quarter’s strong rally could mean tougher quarters ahead, particularly if earnings begin to falter, as they could in some areas.
1

While we agree a peak in the rate hiking cycle should benefit equities in the longer term, in the short-term, our view is that falling inflation may not be positive for earnings, as the strong revenue growth in recent quarters has been more a function of price increases than rising volumes.
Given our outlook, the Fund remains focused around quality businesses with resilient earnings streams while we target new ideas that we believe may benefit in a higher rate, higher inflation, higher capital investment regime.
Sincerely,
Elias Cohen and Thomas Hogan

The performance data quoted represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. For current performance data, including current to the most recent month-end, please visit http://www.nb.com/amtportfolios/performance.
The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares.  The results do not reflect fees and expenses of the variable annuity and variable life insurance policies or the qualified pension and retirement plans whose proceeds are invested in the Fund.
The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. Repayment by a class (of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by NBIA) will decrease the class’s returns. Please see Note B in the Notes to Financial Statements for specific information regarding expense reimbursement and/or fee waiver arrangements.
As stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus, the total annual operating expense ratios for fiscal year 2021 were 1.45% and 1.78% for Class I and Class S shares, respectively (before expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, if any). The expense ratios were 1.02% and 1.54% after expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers for Class I and Class S shares, respectively. The expense ratios for the annual period ended December 31, 2022 can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

COMPARISON OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT
This graph shows the change in value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the past 10 fiscal years, or since the Fund’s inception if it has not operated for 10 years. The graph is based on Class S shares only; the performance of the Fund’s share classes will differ primarily due to different class expenses (see Performance Highlights chart above). The result is compared with benchmarks, which include a broad-based market index and may include a more narrowly based index. Market indices have not been reduced to reflect any of the fees and costs of investing. The results shown in the graph reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. The results do not reflect fees and expenses of the variable annuity and variable life insurance policies or the qualified pension and retirement plans whose proceeds are invested in the Fund. Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results.
Please see Endnotes for additional information.

The MSCI EAFE® Index (Net) (Europe, Australasia, Far East) is a free float-adjusted market capitalization
weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets,
excluding the United States and Canada. The index consists of the following 21 developed market country
indexes: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Israel, Italy,
Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the
United Kingdom. Net total return indices reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using
(for international indices) a tax rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit
from double taxation treaties. Please note that the index described in this report does not take into account
any fees, expenses or tax consequences of investing in the individual securities that it tracks (except the
withholding taxes noted above), and that individuals cannot invest directly in any index. Data about the
performance of an index are prepared or obtained by Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC and
reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The Fund may invest in
securities not included in a described index and generally does not invest in all securities included in a
described index.
The investments for the Fund are managed by the same portfolio manager(s) who manage(s) one or more other registered funds that have names, investment objectives and investment styles that are similar to those of the Fund. You should be aware that the Fund is likely to differ from those other mutual fund(s) in size, cash flow pattern and tax matters. Accordingly, the holdings and performance of the Fund can be expected to vary from those of the other mutual fund(s).
Shares of the separate Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Portfolios, including the Fund, are not available to the general public. Shares of the Fund may be purchased only by life insurance companies to be held in their separate accounts, which fund variable annuity and variable life insurance policies, and by qualified pension and retirement plans.

Information About Your Fund’s Expenses (Unaudited)
As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs such as fees and expenses that are, or may be, imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (if applicable), and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in U.S. dollars) of investing in the Fund and compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
This table is designed to provide information regarding costs related to your investments. The following examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the six month period ended December 31, 2022 and held for the entire period. The table illustrates the Fund’s costs in two ways:
Actual Expenses and
Performance:
The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual
expenses in dollars, based on the Fund’s actual performance during the period indicated.
You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to
estimate the expenses 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 section of the table under the heading entitled
"Expenses Paid During the Period" to estimate the expenses you paid over the period.
Hypothetical Example for
Comparison Purposes:
The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values
and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate
of return at 5% per year before expenses. This return 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 this Fund versus other funds. To do so,
compare the expenses shown in this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical
examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not include any transaction costs, such as fees and expenses that are, or may be imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan. Therefore, the information under the heading "Hypothetical (5% annual 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 transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements International Equity Portfolio
Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
1
General: Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust") is a Delaware statutory trust
organized pursuant to an Amended and Restated Trust Instrument dated March 27, 2014. The Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the "1940 Act"), and its shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust International Equity Portfolio (the "Fund") is a separate operating series of the Trust and is diversified. The Fund currently offers Class I and Class S shares. The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the "Board") may establish additional series or classes of shares without the approval of shareholders.
A balance indicated with a "—", reflects either a zero balance or a balance that rounds to less than 1.
The assets of the Fund belong only to the Fund, and the liabilities of the Fund are borne solely by the Fund and no other series of the Trust.
The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 "Financial Services—Investment Companies."
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires Management to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Shares of the Fund are not available to the general public and may be purchased only by life insurance companies to serve as an investment vehicle for premiums paid under their variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts and to certain qualified pension and other retirement plans.
2
Portfolio valuation: In accordance with ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurement" ("ASC 820"), all investments held by the Fund are carried at the value that Management believes the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment under current market conditions. Various inputs, including the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in the market, are considered in valuing the Fund's investments, some of which are discussed below. At times, Management may need to apply significant judgment to value investments in accordance with ASC 820.
ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to create a classification of value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 – other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, amortized cost, etc.)
Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodology used for valuing an investment are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The value of the Fund’s investments in equity securities, for which market quotations are available, is generally determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on
the latest sale price quoted on a principal exchange or market for that security (Level 1 inputs). Securities traded primarily on the NASDAQ Stock Market are normally valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. The NOCP is the most recently reported price as of 4:00:02 p.m., Eastern Time, unless that price is outside the range of the "inside" bid and asked prices (i.e., the bid and asked prices that dealers quote to each other when trading for their own accounts); in that
15

case, NASDAQ will adjust the price to equal the inside bid or asked price, whichever is closer. Because of delays in reporting trades, the NOCP may not be based on the price of the last trade to occur before the market closes. If there is no sale of a security on a particular day, the independent pricing services may value the security based on market quotations.
Management has developed a process to periodically review information provided by independent pricing services for all types of securities.
Investments in non-exchange traded investment companies are valued using the respective fund’s daily calculated net asset value ("NAV") per share (Level 2 inputs), when available.
If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, or if Management has reason to believe that the valuation received does not represent the amount the Fund might reasonably expect to receive on a current sale in an orderly transaction, Management seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers (generally considered Level 2 or Level 3 inputs depending on the number of quotes available). If such quotations are not available, the security is valued using methods Management has approved in the good-faith belief that the resulting valuation will reflect the fair value of the security. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board designated Management as the Fund's valuation designee. As the Fund's valuation designee, Management is responsible for determining fair value in good faith for any and all Fund investments. Inputs and assumptions considered in determining the fair value of a security based on Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to, the type of the security; the initial cost of the security; the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; quotations or evaluated prices from broker-dealers and/or pricing services; information obtained from the issuer and/or analysts; an analysis of the company’s or issuer’s financial statements; an evaluation of the inputs that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The value of the Fund’s investments in foreign securities is generally determined using the same valuation methods and inputs as other Fund investments, as discussed above. Foreign security prices expressed in local currency values are normally translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time on days the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open for business. Management has approved the use of ICE Data Services ("ICE") to assist in determining the fair value of foreign equity securities when changes in the value of a certain index suggest that the closing prices on the foreign exchanges may no longer represent the amount that the Fund could expect to receive for those securities or on days when foreign markets are closed and U.S. markets are open. In each of these events, ICE will provide adjusted prices for certain foreign equity securities using a statistical analysis of historical correlations of multiple factors (Level 2 inputs). In the absence of precise information about the market values of these foreign securities as of the time as of which the Fund’s share price is calculated, Management has determined on the basis of available data that prices adjusted or evaluated in this way are likely to be closer to the prices the Fund could realize on a current sale than are the prices of those securities established at the close of the foreign markets in which the securities primarily trade.
Fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security is next quoted or next trades.
3
Foreign currency translations: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are normally translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on days the NYSE is open for business, to determine the value of investments, other assets and liabilities. Purchase and sale prices of securities, and income and expenses, are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Net unrealized foreign currency gain/(loss), if any, arises from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, as a result of changes in exchange rates and is stated separately in the Statement of Operations.
4
Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign dividends, as soon as the Fund becomes aware of the dividends. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, including
16

accretion of discount (adjusted for original issue discount, where applicable), if any, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions and foreign currency transactions, if any, are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statement of Operations. Included in net realized gain/(loss) on investments are proceeds from the settlement of class action litigation(s) in which the Fund participated as a class member. The amount of such proceeds for the year ended December 31, 2022, was $18,224.
5
Income tax information: The Fund is treated as a separate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company ("RIC") by complying with the requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to its shareholders. To the extent the Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to shareholders, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.
ASC 740 "Income Taxes" sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as an income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not yet expired. As of December 31, 2022, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax positions.
For federal income tax purposes, the estimated cost of investments held at December 31, 2022 was $35,566,442. The estimated gross unrealized appreciation was $1,665,325 and estimated gross unrealized depreciation was $3,866,510 resulting in net unrealized depreciation in value of investments of $(2,201,185) based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund. The Fund may also utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of their shares as a part of the dividends-paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Any permanent differences resulting from different book and tax treatment are reclassified at year-end and have no impact on net income, NAV or NAV per share of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund recorded the following permanent reclassification primarily related to deemed distributions on shareholder redemptions:

The temporary differences between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings are primarily due to losses disallowed and recognized on wash sales.
6
Foreign taxes: Foreign taxes withheld, if any, represent amounts withheld by foreign tax authorities, net of refunds recoverable.
As a result of several European Court of Justice (“ECJ”) court cases in certain countries across the European Union (“EU”), the Fund has filed tax reclaims for previously withheld taxes on dividends earned in those countries (“ECJ tax reclaims”). These additional filings are subject to various administrative proceedings by the local jurisdictions’ tax authorities within the EU, as well as a number of related judicial proceedings. When the ECJ tax reclaim is “more likely than not” to not be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities due to the uncertainty that exists as to the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these ECJ tax reclaims, and the potential timing of payment, no amounts are reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund has determined that certain ECJ tax reclaims in Sweden are “more likely than not” to be sustained after examination by tax authorities. The income recognized from these ECJ tax reclaims is reflected as “Interest and other income—unaffiliated issuers” in the Statement of Operations and the cost to file these additional ECJ tax reclaims is reflected as “Miscellaneous and other fees” in the Statement of Operations.
7
Distributions to shareholders: The Fund may earn income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed once a year (usually in October) and are recorded on the ex-date.
8
Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds within the complex of related investment companies. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses of the Trust that are not directly attributable to a particular series of the Trust (e.g., the Fund) are allocated among the series of the Trust, on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the series can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which NBIA serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributable to a particular investment company in the complex (e.g., the Trust) or series thereof are allocated among the investment companies in the complex or series thereof on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the investment companies in the complex or series thereof can otherwise be made fairly. The Fund’s expenses (other than those specific to each class) are allocated proportionally each day among its classes based upon the relative net assets of each class.
9
Investments in foreign securities: Investing in foreign securities may involve sovereign and other risks, in addition to the credit and market risks normally associated with domestic securities. These additional risks include the possibility of adverse political and economic developments (including political instability, nationalization, expropriation, or confiscatory taxation) and the potentially adverse effects of unavailability of public information regarding issuers, less governmental supervision and regulation of financial markets, reduced liquidity of certain financial markets, and the lack of uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards or the application of standards that are different or less stringent than those applied in the United States. Foreign securities also may experience greater price volatility, higher rates of inflation, and delays in settlement.
10
Investment company securities and exchange-traded funds: The Fund may invest in shares of other registered investment companies, including exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), within the limitations prescribed by the 1940 Act, in reliance on rules adopted by the SEC, particularly Rule 12d1-4 or any other applicable exemptive relief. Rule 12d1-4 permits fund of funds arrangements, and includes (i) limits on control and
18

voting; (ii) required evaluations and findings; (iii) required fund of funds investment agreements; and (iv) limits on complex structures. Shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear their proportionate share of any management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the management fees and expenses of the Fund.
11
Securities lending: The Fund, using State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) as its lending agent, may loan securities to qualified brokers and dealers in exchange for negotiated lender’s fees. These fees, if any, would be disclosed within the Statement of Operations under the caption “Income from securities loaned-net” and are net of expenses retained by State Street as compensation for its services as lending agent.
The initial collateral received by the Fund at the beginning of each transaction shall have a value equal to at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities (105% in the case of international securities). Collateral in the form of cash and/or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies, equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities, is maintained at all times. Thereafter, the value of the collateral is monitored on a daily basis, and collateral is moved daily between a counterparty and the Fund until the close of the transaction. Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of State Street and is included on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The total value of securities received as collateral for securities on loan is included in a footnote following the Schedule of Investments, but is not included within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities because the receiving Fund does not have the right to sell or repledge the securities received as collateral. The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities. Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the securities loaned and any interest earned or dividends paid or owed on those securities during the term of the loan would accrue to the Fund.
As of December 31, 2022, the Fund had outstanding loans of securities to certain approved brokers, with a value of $1,818,891, for which it received collateral as follows:

Offsetting Assets and Liabilities: The Fund is required to disclose both gross and net information for assets and liabilities related to over-the-counter derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities lending and securities borrowing transactions, if any, that are eligible for offset or subject to an enforceable master netting or similar agreement. The Fund’s securities lending assets at fair value are reported gross in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

13
Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Trust’s organizational documents provide that its officers ("Officers") and trustees ("Trustees") are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against the Trust.
14
Other: All net investment income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Fund are allocated, on the basis of relative net assets, pro rata among its respective classes.
Note B—Investment Management Fees, Administration Fees, Distribution Arrangements, and Other Transactions with Affiliates:
The Fund retains NBIA as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, the Fund pays NBIA an investment management fee at an annual rate of 0.85% of the first $250 million of the Fund’s average daily net assets, 0.825% of the next $250 million, 0.80% of the next $250 million, 0.775% of the next $250 million, 0.75% of the next $500 million, 0.725% of the next $1 billion, and 0.70% of average daily net assets in excess of $2.5 billion. Accordingly, for the year ended December 31, 2022, the investment management fee pursuant to the Management Agreement was equivalent to an annual effective rate of 0.85% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
The Fund retains NBIA as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. Each class pays NBIA an administration fee at the annual rate of 0.30% of its average daily net assets. Additionally, NBIA retains State Street as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. NBIA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.
NBIA has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Fund’s Class I and Class S shares so that the total annual operating expenses of those classes do not exceed the expense limitations as detailed in the following table. These undertakings exclude interest, taxes, transaction costs, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, extraordinary expenses, and dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, if any (commitment fees relating to borrowings are treated as interest for purposes of this exclusion) (“annual operating expenses”); consequently, net expenses may exceed the contractual expense limitations. The Fund has agreed that each of its classes will repay NBIA for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for that class provided that repayment does not cause that class’s annual operating expenses to exceed its contractual expense limitation in place at the time the fees and expenses were waived or reimbursed, or the expense limitation in place at the time the Fund repays NBIA, whichever is lower. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the year in which NBIA incurred the expense.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, there was no repayment to NBIA under these agreements.
At December 31, 2022, the Fund's contingent liabilities to NBIA under the agreements were as follows:

Neuberger Berman BD LLC (the "Distributor") is the Fund’s "principal underwriter" within the meaning of the 1940 Act. It acts as agent in arranging for the sale of the Fund’s Class I shares without sales commission or other compensation and bears all advertising and promotion expenses incurred in the sale of those shares. The Board adopted a non-fee distribution plan for the Fund’s Class I shares.
The Board has adopted a distribution and shareholder services plan (the "Plan") for Class S shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plan provides that, as compensation for administrative and other services related to the sale and distribution of Class S shares, and ongoing services provided to investors in the class, the Distributor receives from Class S a fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of Class S’s average daily net assets. The Distributor may pay a portion of the proceeds from the 12b-1 fee to institutions that provide such services, including insurance companies or their affiliates and qualified plan administrators ("intermediaries") for services they provide respecting the Fund to current and prospective variable contract owners and qualified plan participants that invest in the Fund through the intermediaries. Those institutions may use the payments for, among other purposes, compensating employees engaged in sales and/or shareholder servicing. The amount of fees paid by the class during any year may be more or less than the cost of distribution and other services provided to the class. FINRA rules limit the amount of annual distribution fees that may be paid by a mutual fund and impose a ceiling on the cumulative distribution fees paid. The Plan complies with those rules.
Note C—Securities Transactions:
During the year ended December 31, 2022, there were purchase and sale transactions of long-term securities of $22,721,556 and $21,829,171, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, no brokerage commissions on securities transactions were paid to affiliated brokers.

Other: At December 31, 2022, affiliated persons, as defined in the 1940 Act, owned 0.03% of the Fund’s outstanding shares.
Note E—Line of Credit:
At December 31, 2022, the Fund was a participant in a syndicated committed, unsecured $700,000,000 line of credit (the "Credit Facility"), to be used only for temporary or emergency purposes. Series of other investment companies managed by NBIA also participate in this line of credit on substantially the same terms. Interest is charged on borrowings under this Credit Facility at the highest of (a) a federal funds effective rate plus 1.00% per annum, (b) a daily simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 1.10% per annum, and (c) an overnight bank funding rate plus 1.00% per annum; provided that should the Administrative Agent of the Credit Facility determine that the daily simple SOFR rate is unavailable, then the interest rate option described in (b) shall be replaced with a benchmark replacement determined to be applicable by such Administrative Agent. The Credit Facility has an annual commitment fee of 0.15% per annum of the available line of credit, which is paid quarterly. The Fund has agreed to pay its pro rata share of the annual commitment fee, based on the ratio of its individual net assets to the net assets of all participants at the time the fee is due, and interest charged on any borrowing made by the Fund and other costs incurred by the Fund. Because several mutual funds participate in the Credit Facility, there is no assurance that the Fund will have access to all or any part of the $700,000,000 at any particular time. There were no loans outstanding under the Credit Facility at December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not utilize the Credit Facility.
Note F—Recent Accounting Pronouncement:
In June 2022, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2022-03, "Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions" ("ASU 2022-03"). ASU 2022-03 clarifies the guidance in ASC 820, related to the measurement of the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual sale restrictions, where it eliminates the ability to apply a discount to the fair value of these securities, and introduces disclosure requirements related to such equity securities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, and allows for early adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact of applying this update.
Note G—Other Matters:
Coronavirus: The outbreak of the novel coronavirus in many countries has, among other things, disrupted global travel and supply chains, and adversely impacted global commercial activity, the transportation industry and commodity prices in the energy sector. The impact of this virus has negatively affected and may continue to affect the economies of many nations, individual companies and the global securities and commodities markets, including liquidity and volatility. The development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to its ultimate impact, which may have a continued adverse effect on global economic and market conditions. Such conditions (which may be across industries, sectors or geographies) have impacted and may continue to impact certain issuers of the securities held by the Fund and in turn, may impact the financial performance of the Fund.
Russia's Invasion of Ukraine: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and corresponding events in late February 2022, have had, and could continue to have, severe adverse effects on regional and global economic markets for securities and commodities. Following Russia’s actions, various governments, including the United States, have issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia. The current events have had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on global markets performance and liquidity, thereby negatively affecting the value of the Fund's investments beyond any direct exposure to Russian or Ukrainian issuers. The duration of ongoing hostilities and the vast array of sanctions and related events cannot be predicted. Those events present material uncertainty and risk with respect to markets globally and the performance of the Fund and its investments or operations could be negatively impacted.

a
The date investment operations commenced.
b
Calculated based on the average number of shares outstanding during each fiscal period.
c
Total return based on per share NAV reflects the effects of changes in NAV on the performance of the Fund
during each fiscal period. Returns assume income dividends and other distributions, if any, were reinvested.
Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current returns may be lower or
higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns and principal will fluctuate and shares, when
redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost. Total return would have been lower if
Management had not reimbursed and/or waived certain expenses. The total return information shown does
not reflect charges and other expenses that apply to the separate accounts or the related insurance policies
or other qualified pension or retirement plans, and the inclusion of these charges and other expenses would
reduce the total return for all fiscal periods shown.
d
The class action proceeds listed in Note A of the Notes to Financial Statements had no impact on the Fund’s
total return for the year ended December 31, 2022. The class action proceeds received in 2020 had no
impact on the Fund’s total return for the year ended December 31, 2020. Had the Fund not received the
class action proceeds for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2019, total return based on per share

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust International Equity Portfolio
and Board of Trustees of the Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust International Equity Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the “Trust”)), including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Portfolio (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust) at December 31, 2022, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolio’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and others; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more Neuberger Berman investment companies since 1954.

Board Consideration of the Management Agreement
On an annual basis, the Board of Trustees (the "Board" or "Trustees") of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust"), including the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust or of Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("Management") (including its affiliates), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), ("Independent Fund Trustees"), considers whether to continue the management agreement with Management (the "Agreement") with respect to International Equity Portfolio (the "Fund"). Throughout the process, the Independent Fund Trustees are advised by counsel that is experienced in 1940 Act matters and that is independent of Management ("Independent Counsel"). At a meeting held on September 29, 2022, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement for the Fund.
In evaluating the Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, reviewed extensive materials provided by Management in response to questions submitted by the Independent Fund Trustees and Independent Counsel, and met with senior representatives of Management regarding its personnel, operations, and profitability as they relate to the Fund. The annual contract review extends over at least two regular meetings of the Board to ensure that Management has time to respond to any questions the Independent Fund Trustees may have on their initial review of the materials and that the Independent Fund Trustees have time to consider those responses.  Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of Management.
In connection with its deliberations, the Board also considered the broad range of information relevant to the annual contract review that is provided to the Board (including its various standing committees) at meetings throughout the year, including reports on investment performance, portfolio risk, liquidity management, and other portfolio information for the Fund, as well as periodic reports on, among other matters, pricing and valuation; quality and cost of portfolio trade execution; compliance; and shareholder and other services provided by Management and its affiliates.  The Contract Review Committee, which is comprised solely of Independent Fund Trustees, was established by the Board to assist in its evaluation and analysis of materials for the annual contract review.  The Board has also established other committees that focus throughout the year on specific areas relevant to the annual contract review, such as Fund performance or compliance matters, and that are charged with specific responsibilities regarding the annual contract review.  Those committees provide reports to the full Board, including the members of the Contract Review Committee, which consider that information as part of the annual contract review process.  The Contract Review Committee annually considers and updates the questions it asks of Management in light of legal advice furnished to it by Independent Counsel; its own business judgment; and developments in the industry, in the markets, in mutual fund regulation and litigation, and in Management’s business model.
The Independent Fund Trustees received from Independent Counsel a memorandum discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreement.  During the course of the year and during their deliberations regarding the annual contract review, the Contract Review Committee and the Independent Fund Trustees met with Independent Counsel separately from representatives of Management.
38

Provided below is a description of the Board’s contract approval process and material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding renewal of the Agreement and the compensation to be paid thereunder.  In connection with its approval of the continuation of the Agreement, the Board evaluated the terms of the Agreement, the overall fairness of the Agreement to the Fund, and whether the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.  The Board’s determination to approve the continuation of the Agreement was based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Board throughout the year and specifically in connection with the annual contract review.  The Board considered the Fund’s investment management agreement separately from those of other funds of the Trust.
This description is not intended to include all of the factors considered by the Board.  The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors.  The Board focused on the costs and benefits of the Agreement to the Fund and, through the Fund, its shareholders.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services
With respect to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided, the Board considered the investment philosophy and decision-making processes of, and the qualifications, experience, and capabilities of, and the resources available to, the portfolio management personnel of Management who perform services for the Fund. The Board noted that Management also provides certain administrative services, including fund accounting and compliance services.  The Board also considered Management’s policies and practices regarding brokerage, commissions, other trading costs, and allocation of portfolio transactions and reviewed the quality of the execution services that Management had provided. The Board also reviewed Management’s use of brokers to execute Fund transactions that provide research services to Management.  Moreover, the Board considered Management’s approach to potential conflicts of interest both generally and between the Fund’s investments and those of other funds or accounts managed by Management. The Board also noted that Management had increased its capabilities with respect to environmental, social, and corporate governance matters and considered how that might impact the Fund.  The Board noted the additional responsibilities of Management in administering the liquidity risk management program. 
The Board recognized the extensive range of services that Management provides to the Fund beyond the investment management services.  The Board noted that Management is also responsible for monitoring compliance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies, and restrictions, as well as compliance with applicable law, including implementing rulemaking initiatives of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Board considered that Management assumes significant ongoing entrepreneurial and business risks as the investment adviser and sponsor for the Fund, for which it is entitled to reasonable compensation.  The Trustees also considered that Management’s responsibilities include continual management of investment, operational, cybersecurity, enterprise, legal, regulatory, and compliance risks as they relate to the Fund, and the Board considers on a regular basis information regarding Management’s processes for monitoring and managing risk.  In addition, the Board also noted that when Management launches a new fund or share class, it assumes entrepreneurial risk with respect to that fund or share class, and that some funds and share classes have been liquidated without ever having been profitable to Management. 
The Board also reviewed and evaluated Management’s activities under its contractual obligation to oversee the Fund’s various outside service providers, including its renegotiation of certain service providers’ fees and its evaluation of service providers’ infrastructure, cybersecurity programs, compliance programs, and business continuity programs, among other matters.  The Board also considered Management’s ongoing development of its own infrastructure and information technology to support the Fund through, among other things, cybersecurity, business continuity planning, and risk management.  The Board noted Management’s largely seamless implementation of its business continuity plan in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its success in continuously providing services to the Fund notwithstanding the disruptions caused by the pandemic.  In addition,
39

the Board noted the positive compliance history of Management, as no significant compliance problems were reported to the Board with respect to Management.  The Board also considered the general structure of the portfolio managers’ compensation and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the Fund. The Board also considered the ability of Management to attract and retain qualified personnel to service the Fund.
As in past years, the Board also considered the manner in which Management addressed various matters that arose during the year, some of them a result of developments in the broader fund industry or the regulations governing it.  In addition, the Board considered actions taken by Management in response to recent market conditions over the past year and considered the overall performance of Management in this context.
Fund Performance
The Board requested a report from an outside consulting firm that specializes in the analysis of fund industry data that compared the Fund’s performance, along with its fees and other expenses, to a group of industry peers (“Expense Group”) and to a broader universe of funds pursuing generally similar strategies with the same investment classification and/or objective (“Performance Universe”).  The Board considered the outside consulting group’s statements regarding the composition of each of the Expense Group and Performance Universe and whether they were inclusive of non-proprietary funds, such as the Fund, operated for insurance company investors by independent investment managers or both proprietary funds that are operated by insurance companies or their affiliates, and non-proprietary funds.  The Board considered the Fund’s performance and fees in light of the limitations inherent in the methodology for constructing such comparative groups and determining which investment companies should be included in the comparative groups, noting differences as compared to certain fund industry ranking and rating systems.  The Board also considered the impact and inherent limitation on the comparisons due to the small number of funds included in the Fund’s Expense Group and Performance Universe.
With respect to investment performance, the Board considered information regarding the Fund’s short-, intermediate- and long-term performance, net of the Fund’s fees and expenses, on an absolute basis, relative to a benchmark index that does not deduct the fees or expenses of investing, and compared to the performance of the Expense Group and Performance Universe, each constructed by the consulting firm.  The Board also reviewed performance in relation to certain measures of the degree of investment risk undertaken by the portfolio managers.
The Performance Universe referenced in this section was identified by the consulting firm, as discussed above.  For any period of underperformance, the Board considered the magnitude and duration of that underperformance relative to the Performance Universe, and/or the benchmark (e.g., the amount by which a Fund underperformed, including, for example, whether the Fund slightly underperformed or significantly underperformed its benchmark).  With respect to performance quintile rankings for the Fund compared to its Performance Universe, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance. For investment performance comparisons, the Board looked at the Fund’s Class I as a proxy for both of the Fund’s classes.
The Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended December 31, 2021: (1) as compared to its benchmark, the Fund’s performance was higher for the 1- and 3-year periods; and (2) as compared to its Performance Universe, the Fund’s performance was in the first quintile for the 1-year period and the third quintile for the 3-year period.  The Fund’s Class I shares launched in 2018 and therefore do not have 5- or 10-year performance.  The Board noted the Fund’s ranking was in the second quintile of its Morningstar peer category and in the third quintile of its Lipper peer category for the 7-month period ending July 31, 2021.  In addition, the Board met with the portfolio management team in October 2021 to discuss the Fund’s performance.
40

The Board recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. The Board further acknowledged that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance, and that a single investment theme could disproportionately affect performance.  The Board also considered Management’s responsiveness to the Fund’s relative performance.  In this regard, the Board noted that performance, especially short-term performance, is only one of the factors that it deems relevant to its consideration of the Agreement and that, after considering all relevant factors, it determined to approve the continuation of the Agreement.

With respect to the overall fairness of the Agreement, the Board considered the fee structure for the Fund under the Agreement as compared to the Expense Group provided by the consulting firm, as discussed above.  The Board reviewed a comparison of the Fund’s management fee to its Expense Group.  The Board noted that the comparative management fee analysis includes, in the Fund’s management fee, the separate administrative fees paid to Management.  However, the Board noted that some funds in the Expense Group pay directly from fund assets for certain services that Management covers out of the administration fees for the Fund.  Accordingly, the Board also considered the Fund’s total expense ratio as compared with its Expense Group as a way of taking account of these differences.
The Board compared the Fund’s contractual and actual management fees to the median of the contractual and actual management fees, respectively, of the Fund’s Expense Group. (The actual management fees are the contractual management fees reduced by any fee waivers or other adjustments.)  The Board also compared the Fund’s total expenses to the median of the total expenses of the Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that the Fund’s total expenses were higher than the Expense Group median, and considered whether specific portfolio management, administration or oversight needs contributed to the Fund’s total expenses.   With respect to the quintile rankings for fees and total expenses (net of waivers or other adjustments, if any) for the Fund compared to its Expense Group, the first quintile represents the lowest (best) fees and/or total expenses and the fifth quintile represents the highest fees and/or total expenses. For fee comparisons, the Board looked at the Fund’s Class I as a proxy for both of the Fund’s classes. 
The Board considered that, as compared to its Expense Group, the Fund’s contractual management fee ranked in the fifth quintile, the actual management fee net of fees waived by Management ranked in the second quintile, and total expenses ranked in the fourth quintile. In addition to considering the above-referenced factors, the Board took note of its ongoing dialogue with Management regarding the dynamics of the insurance/annuity marketplace.  The Board considered, among other matters, related tax restrictions and the unique challenges facing that market generally, which assisted the Board in understanding the context for the Fund’s expense ratio and performance.
In concluding that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund, the Board reviewed specific data as to Management’s estimated profit on the Fund for a recent period on a pre-tax basis without regard to distribution expenses. (The Board also reviewed data on Management’s estimated profit on the Fund after distribution/servicing expenses and taxes were factored in, as indicators of the health of the business and the extent to which Management is directing its profits into the growth of the business.) The Board noted that when distribution expenses and taxes were considered, Management experienced a loss on the Fund.  The Board considered the cost allocation methodology that Management used in developing its estimated profitability figures.  In recent years, the Board engaged an independent forensic accountant to review the profitability methodology utilized by Management when preparing this information and discussed with the consultant its conclusion that Management’s process for calculating and reporting its estimated profit was not unreasonable.
41

Recognizing that there is no uniform methodology regarding the allocation of firm-wide or complex-wide expenses within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose and that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to different profit and loss results, the Board, in the past, requested from Management examples of profitability calculated by different methods and noted that the estimated profitability levels were still reasonable when calculated by these other methods.  The Board further noted Management’s representation that its estimate of profitability is derived using methodology that is consistent with the methodology used to assess and/or report measures of profitability elsewhere at the firm.  In addition, the Board recognized that Management’s calculations regarding its costs may not reflect all risks, including regulatory, legal, operational, cybersecurity, reputational, and, where appropriate, entrepreneurial risks, associated with offering and managing a mutual fund in the current regulatory and market environment.  The Board also considered any fall-out (i.e., indirect) benefits likely to accrue to Management or its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund, such as research it may receive from broker-dealers executing the Fund’s portfolio transactions on an agency basis. The Board recognized that Management and its affiliates should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for services they provide to the Fund and, based on its review, concluded that Management’s reported level of estimated profitability on the Fund was reasonable.
Information Regarding Services to Other Clients
The Board also considered other funds and separate accounts that were advised or sub-advised by Management or its affiliates with investment objectives, policies and strategies that were similar to those of the Fund, and compared the fees charged to the Fund to the fees charged to such comparable funds and separate accounts.  The Board considered the appropriateness and reasonableness of any differences between the fees charged to a Fund and such comparable funds and/or separate accounts, and determined that differences in fees and fee structures were consistent with the differences in the management and other services provided. The Board explored with Management its assertion that although, generally, the rates of fees paid by such accounts, except other Neuberger Berman mutual funds, were lower than the fee rates paid by the corresponding Fund, the differences reflected Management’s greater level of responsibilities and significantly broader scope of services to the Fund, the more extensive regulatory obligations and risks associated with managing the Fund, and other financial considerations with respect to creation and sponsorship of the Fund.
Economies of Scale
The Board also evaluated apparent or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services Management provides to the Fund. The Board considered whether the Fund’s fee structure provides for a reduction of payments resulting from the use of breakpoints, the size of any breakpoints in the Fund’s advisory fees, and whether any such breakpoints are set at appropriate asset levels.  The Board also compared the breakpoint structure to that of the Expense Group.  In addition, the Board considered the expense limitation and/or fee waiver arrangements that reduces Fund expenses at all asset levels which can have an effect similar to breakpoints in sharing economies of scale with shareholders and provide protection from an increase in expenses if the Fund’s assets decline.  The Board also considered that Management has provided, at no added cost to the Fund, certain additional services, including but not limited to, services required by new regulations or regulatory interpretations, services impelled by changes in the securities markets or the business landscape, and/or services requested by the Board.  The Board considered that this is a way of sharing economies of scale with the Fund and its shareholders.
Conclusions
In approving the continuation of the Agreement, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Agreement are fair and reasonable to the Fund and that approval of the continuation of the Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.  In reaching this determination, the Board considered that Management could be expected to continue to provide a high level of service to the Fund; that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory over time; that the Board retained confidence in Management’s capabilities to
42

manage the Fund; that the Fund’s fee structure appeared to the Board to be reasonable given the nature, extent, and quality of services provided; and that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund.  The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of materials prepared in connection with the approval or continuance of the Agreement in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year, in addition to material prepared specifically for the most recent annual review of the Agreement.

Mid Cap Growth Portfolio Commentary (Unaudited)
The Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Mid Cap Growth Portfolio (the Fund) Class I generated a total return of -28.73% for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the reporting period), trailing its benchmark, the Russell Midcap® Growth Index (the Index), which returned -26.72% for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)
2022 was largely defined by persistent inflationary pressures and the actions of a decidedly hawkish U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) to curb those trends. The challenges of that scenario were amplified by the geopolitical ramifications of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and China’s rolling COVID-19 lockdowns. Simultaneously, the Fed’s ability to implement their inflation-fighting playbook and quickly affect broad changes in demand and spending behavior was hamstrung by continued healthy employment levels, robust wage growth and vexing raw material shortages and supply chain disruptions that served to perpetuate demand/supply imbalances. The end result was sustained volatility fueled by recessionary worries and shifting sentiment from a market actively recalibrating its focus, expectations and risk tolerance.
On a relative basis, positive stock selection within the Industrials and Consumer Discretionary sectors and the additive allocation impacts of our underweight to Communication Services versus the Index and deliberate approach to cash management fell short of offsetting the impact of stock specific issues and broad weakness across the Financials, Information Technology (IT) and Health Care sectors. At the industry level, our overweight allocation to Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment was a leading contributor to relative performance as our holdings continued to execute and capitalize on robust demand that consistently outpaced available supply, while a mix of stock-specific issues and challenging market sentiment resulted in the IT Services segment being the leading detractor. Drilling down to our holdings, Enphase Energy, which provides microinverters and smart battery systems to pair with solar panels, was the leading contributor to performance as the company continued to exceed expectations throughout the reporting period. The leading detractor was MongoDB, a provider of database development consulting, tools and support, that despite delivering results which exceeded expectations, fell victim to a highly discriminating market that focused on a cautious tone and growth rates that fell short of the magnitude of previous periods.
As we look ahead, we fully anticipate the Fed to remain resolute in their resolve to definitively curb inflation, but we also believe that the opportunity remains for them to achieve their goals without triggering a severe and/or prolonged economic downturn. One key will be whether wage growth can be effectively recalibrated through a resetting of labor opportunities that more accurately reflects current demand, helping to cool inflation while keeping the consumer broadly engaged. A second critical aspect will center on the continued resetting of corporate valuations and forward expectations, with the first or second quarter of 2023 a likely telling measure. Given that lingering uncertainty, we continue to believe that a more judicious approach to risk within the Fund and a bias towards higher qualitative characteristics, sustainable business models, balance sheet strength and managements capable of consistent execution remains a prudent course for navigating a still unsettled environment. In closing, while market drawdowns of this magnitude are disheartening, we are steadfast in our belief that they are necessary for a healthy market and the eventual development of new investment opportunities.

The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. The results do not reflect fees and expenses of the variable annuity and variable life insurance policies or the qualified pension and retirement plans whose proceeds are invested in the Fund.
The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. Repayment by a class (of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by NBIA) will decrease the class’s returns. Please see Note B in the Notes to Financial Statements for specific information regarding expense reimbursement and/or fee waiver arrangements.
As stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus, the total annual operating expense ratios for fiscal year 2021 were 0.89% and 1.14% for Class I and Class S shares, respectively (before expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, if any). The expense ratio was 1.10% after expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers for Class S shares. The expense ratios for the annual period ended December 31, 2022 can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

Information About Your Fund’s Expenses (Unaudited)
As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs such as fees and expenses that are, or may be, imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (if applicable), and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in U.S. dollars) of investing in the Fund and compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
This table is designed to provide information regarding costs related to your investments. The following examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the six month period ended December 31, 2022 and held for the entire period. The table illustrates the Fund’s costs in two ways:
Actual Expenses and
Performance:
The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual
expenses in dollars, based on the Fund’s actual performance during the period indicated.
You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to
estimate the expenses 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 section of the table under the heading entitled
"Expenses Paid During the Period" to estimate the expenses you paid over the period.
Hypothetical Example for
Comparison Purposes:
The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values
and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate
of return at 5% per year before expenses. This return 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 this Fund versus other funds. To do so,
compare the expenses shown in this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical
examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not include any transaction costs, such as fees and expenses that are, or may be imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan. Therefore, the information under the heading "Hypothetical (5% annual 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 transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements Mid Cap Growth Portfolio
Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
1
General: Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust") is a Delaware statutory trust
organized pursuant to an Amended and Restated Trust Instrument dated March 27, 2014. The Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the "1940 Act"), and its shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Mid Cap Growth Portfolio (the "Fund") is a separate operating series of the Trust and is diversified. The Fund currently offers Class I and Class S shares. The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the "Board") may establish additional series or classes of shares without the approval of shareholders.
A balance indicated with a "—", reflects either a zero balance or a balance that rounds to less than 1.
The assets of the Fund belong only to the Fund, and the liabilities of the Fund are borne solely by the Fund and no other series of the Trust.
The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 "Financial Services—Investment Companies."
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires Management to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Shares of the Fund are not available to the general public and may be purchased only by life insurance companies to serve as an investment vehicle for premiums paid under their variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts and to certain qualified pension and other retirement plans.
2
Portfolio valuation: In accordance with ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurement" ("ASC 820"), all investments held by the Fund are carried at the value that Management believes the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment under current market conditions. Various inputs, including the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in the market, are considered in valuing the Fund's investments, some of which are discussed below. At times, Management may need to apply significant judgment to value investments in accordance with ASC 820.
ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to create a classification of value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 – other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, amortized cost, etc.)
Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodology used for valuing an investment are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The value of the Fund’s investments in equity securities, for which market quotations are available, is generally determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on
the latest sale price quoted on a principal exchange or market for that security (Level 1 inputs). Securities traded primarily on the NASDAQ Stock Market are normally valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. The NOCP is the most recently reported price as of 4:00:02 p.m., Eastern Time, unless that price is outside the range of the "inside" bid and asked prices (i.e., the bid and asked prices that dealers quote to each other when trading for their own accounts); in that
12

case, NASDAQ will adjust the price to equal the inside bid or asked price, whichever is closer. Because of delays in reporting trades, the NOCP may not be based on the price of the last trade to occur before the market closes. If there is no sale of a security on a particular day, the independent pricing services may value the security based on market quotations.
Management has developed a process to periodically review information provided by independent pricing services for all types of securities.
Investments in non-exchange traded investment companies are valued using the respective fund’s daily calculated net asset value ("NAV") per share (Level 2 inputs), when available.
If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, or if Management has reason to believe that the valuation received does not represent the amount the Fund might reasonably expect to receive on a current sale in an orderly transaction, Management seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers (generally considered Level 2 or Level 3 inputs depending on the number of quotes available). If such quotations are not available, the security is valued using methods Management has approved in the good-faith belief that the resulting valuation will reflect the fair value of the security. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board designated Management as the Fund's valuation designee. As the Fund's valuation designee, Management is responsible for determining fair value in good faith for any and all Fund investments. Inputs and assumptions considered in determining the fair value of a security based on Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to, the type of the security; the initial cost of the security; the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; quotations or evaluated prices from broker-dealers and/or pricing services; information obtained from the issuer and/or analysts; an analysis of the company’s or issuer’s financial statements; an evaluation of the inputs that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
Fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security is next quoted or next trades.
3
Foreign currency translations: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are normally translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on days the New York Stock Exchange is open for business, to determine the value of investments, other assets and liabilities. Purchase and sale prices of securities, and income and expenses, are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Net unrealized foreign currency gain/(loss), if any, arises from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, as a result of changes in exchange rates and is stated separately in the Statement of Operations.
4
Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign dividends, as soon as the Fund becomes aware of the dividends. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, including accretion of discount (adjusted for original issue discount, where applicable), if any, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions and foreign currency transactions, if any, are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statement of Operations. Included in net realized gain/(loss) on investments are proceeds from the settlement of class action litigation(s) in which the Fund participated as a class member. The amount of such proceeds for the year ended December 31, 2022, was $195,648.
5
Income tax information: The Fund is treated as a separate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company ("RIC") by complying with the requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to its shareholders. To the extent the Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to shareholders, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.
13

ASC 740 "Income Taxes" sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as an income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not yet expired. As of December 31, 2022, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax positions.
For federal income tax purposes, the estimated cost of investments held at December 31, 2022 was $419,790,806. The estimated gross unrealized appreciation was $86,494,715 and estimated gross unrealized depreciation was $47,116,338 resulting in net unrealized appreciation in value of investments of $39,378,377 based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund. The Fund may also utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of their shares as a part of the dividends-paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Any permanent differences resulting from different book and tax treatment are reclassified at year-end and have no impact on net income, NAV or NAV per share of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund recorded the following permanent reclassification related to net operating losses written off:

The temporary differences between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings are primarily due to losses disallowed and recognized on wash sales, and mark-to-market adjustments on passive foreign investment companies ("PFICS").
To the extent the Fund’s net realized capital gains, if any, can be offset by capital loss carryforwards, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gains. Capital loss carryforward rules allow for RICs to carry forward capital losses indefinitely and to retain the character of capital loss carryforwards as short-term or long-term. As determined at December 31, 2022, the Fund had unused capital loss carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes to offset future net realized capital gains, if any, as follows:

6
Distributions to shareholders: The Fund may earn income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed once a year (usually in October) and are recorded on the ex-date.
7
Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds within the complex of related investment companies. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses of the Trust that are not directly attributable to a particular series of the Trust (e.g., the Fund) are allocated among the series of the Trust, on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the series can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which NBIA serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributable to a particular investment company in the complex (e.g., the Trust) or series thereof are allocated among the investment companies in the complex or series thereof on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the investment companies in the complex or series thereof can otherwise be made fairly. The Fund’s expenses (other than those specific to each class) are allocated proportionally each day among its classes based upon the relative net assets of each class.
8
Investments in foreign securities: Investing in foreign securities may involve sovereign and other risks, in addition to the credit and market risks normally associated with domestic securities. These additional risks include the possibility of adverse political and economic developments (including political instability, nationalization, expropriation, or confiscatory taxation) and the potentially adverse effects of unavailability of public information regarding issuers, less governmental supervision and regulation of financial markets, reduced liquidity of certain financial markets, and the lack of uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards or the application of standards that are different or less stringent than those applied in the United States. Foreign securities also may experience greater price volatility, higher rates of inflation, and delays in settlement.
9
Investment company securities and exchange-traded funds: The Fund may invest in shares of other registered investment companies, including exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), within the limitations prescribed by the 1940 Act, in reliance on rules adopted by the SEC, particularly Rule 12d1-4 or any other applicable exemptive relief. Rule 12d1-4 permits fund of funds arrangements, and includes (i) limits on control and voting; (ii) required evaluations and findings; (iii) required fund of funds investment agreements; and (iv) limits on complex structures. Shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear their proportionate share of any management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the management fees and expenses of the Fund.
10
Foreign taxes: Foreign taxes withheld, if any, represent amounts withheld by foreign tax authorities, net of refunds recoverable.
11
Securities lending: The Fund, using State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) as its lending agent, may loan securities to qualified brokers and dealers in exchange for negotiated lender’s fees. These fees, if any, would be disclosed within the Statement of Operations under the caption “Income from securities loaned-net” and are net of expenses retained by State Street as compensation for its services as lending agent.
The initial collateral received by the Fund at the beginning of each transaction shall have a value equal to at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities (105% in the case of international securities). Collateral in the form of cash and/or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies, equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities, is maintained at all times. Thereafter, the value of the collateral is monitored on a daily basis, and collateral is moved daily between a counterparty and the Fund until the close of the transaction. Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of State Street and is included on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The total value of securities received as collateral for securities on loan is included in a footnote following the Schedule of Investments, but is not included within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities because the receiving Fund does not have the right to sell or repledge the securities received as collateral. The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities. Any
15

increase or decrease in the fair value of the securities loaned and any interest earned or dividends paid or owed on those securities during the term of the loan would accrue to the Fund.
As of December 31, 2022, the Fund did not have any outstanding loans of securities.
12
Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Trust’s organizational documents provide that its officers ("Officers") and trustees ("Trustees") are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against the Trust.
13
Other: All net investment income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Fund are allocated, on the basis of relative net assets, pro rata among its respective classes.
Note B—Investment Management Fees, Administration Fees, Distribution Arrangements, and Other Transactions with Affiliates:
The Fund retains NBIA as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, the Fund pays NBIA an investment management fee at an annual rate of 0.55% of the first $250 million of the Fund’s average daily net assets, 0.525% of the next $250 million, 0.50% of the next $250 million, 0.475% of the next $250 million, 0.45% of the next $500 million, 0.425% of the next $2.5 billion, and 0.40% of average daily net assets in excess of $4 billion. Accordingly, for the year ended December 31, 2022, the investment management fee pursuant to the Management Agreement was equivalent to an annual effective rate of 0.54% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
The Fund retains NBIA as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. Each class pays NBIA an administration fee at the annual rate of 0.30% of its average daily net assets. Additionally, NBIA retains State Street as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. NBIA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.
NBIA has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Fund’s Class I and Class S shares so that the total annual operating expenses of those classes do not exceed the expense limitations as detailed in the following table. These undertakings exclude interest, taxes, transaction costs, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, extraordinary expenses, and dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, if any (commitment fees relating to borrowings are treated as interest for purposes of this exclusion) ("annual operating expenses"); consequently, net expenses may exceed the contractual expense limitations. The Fund has agreed that each of its classes will repay NBIA for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for that class provided that repayment does not cause that class’s annual operating expenses to exceed its contractual expense limitation in place at the time the fees and expenses were waived or reimbursed, or the expense limitation in place at the time the Fund repays NBIA, whichever is lower. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the year in which NBIA incurred the expense.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, there was no repayment to NBIA under these agreements.
At December 31, 2022, the Fund's contingent liabilities to NBIA under the agreements were as follows:

Neuberger Berman BD LLC (the "Distributor") is the Fund’s "principal underwriter" within the meaning of the 1940 Act. It acts as agent in arranging for the sale of the Fund’s Class I shares without sales commission or other compensation and bears all advertising and promotion expenses incurred in the sale of those shares. The Board adopted a non-fee distribution plan for the Fund’s Class I shares.
The Board has adopted a distribution and shareholder services plan (the "Plan") for Class S shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plan provides that, as compensation for administrative and other services related to the sale and distribution of Class S shares, and ongoing services provided to investors in the class, the Distributor receives from Class S a fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of Class S’s average daily net assets. The Distributor may pay a portion of the proceeds from the 12b-1 fee to institutions that provide such services, including insurance companies or their affiliates and qualified plan administrators ("intermediaries") for services they provide respecting the Fund to current and prospective variable contract owners and qualified plan participants that invest in the Fund through the intermediaries. Those institutions may use the payments for, among other purposes, compensating employees engaged in sales and/or shareholder servicing. The amount of fees paid by the class during any year may be more or less than the cost of distribution and other services provided to the class. FINRA rules limit the amount of annual distribution fees that may be paid by a mutual fund and impose a ceiling on the cumulative distribution fees paid. The Plan complies with those rules.
Note C—Securities Transactions:
During the year ended December 31, 2022, there were purchase and sale transactions of long-term securities of $303,029,951 and $322,566,556, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, no brokerage commissions on securities transactions were paid to affiliated brokers.
Note D—Fund Share Transactions:
Share activity for the years ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, was as follows:

Note E—Line of Credit:
At December 31, 2022, the Fund was a participant in a syndicated committed, unsecured $700,000,000 line of credit (the "Credit Facility"), to be used only for temporary or emergency purposes. Series of other investment companies managed by NBIA also participate in this line of credit on substantially the same
17

terms. Interest is charged on borrowings under this Credit Facility at the highest of (a) a federal funds effective rate plus 1.00% per annum, (b) a daily simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 1.10% per annum, and (c) an overnight bank funding rate plus 1.00% per annum; provided that should the Administrative Agent of the Credit Facility determine that the daily simple SOFR rate is unavailable, then the interest rate option described in (b) shall be replaced with a benchmark replacement determined to be applicable by such Administrative Agent. The Credit Facility has an annual commitment fee of 0.15% per annum of the available line of credit, which is paid quarterly. The Fund has agreed to pay its pro rata share of the annual commitment fee, based on the ratio of its individual net assets to the net assets of all participants at the time the fee is due, and interest charged on any borrowing made by the Fund and other costs incurred by the Fund. Because several mutual funds participate in the Credit Facility, there is no assurance that the Fund will have access to all or any part of the $700,000,000 at any particular time. There were no loans outstanding under the Credit Facility at December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not utilize the Credit Facility.
Note F—Recent Accounting Pronouncement:
In June 2022, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2022-03, "Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions" ("ASU 2022-03"). ASU 2022-03 clarifies the guidance in ASC 820, related to the measurement of the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual sale restrictions, where it eliminates the ability to apply a discount to the fair value of these securities, and introduces disclosure requirements related to such equity securities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, and allows for early adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact of applying this update.
Note G—Other Matters:
Coronavirus: The outbreak of the novel coronavirus in many countries has, among other things, disrupted global travel and supply chains, and adversely impacted global commercial activity, the transportation industry and commodity prices in the energy sector. The impact of this virus has negatively affected and may continue to affect the economies of many nations, individual companies and the global securities and commodities markets, including liquidity and volatility. The development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to its ultimate impact, which may have a continued adverse effect on global economic and market conditions. Such conditions (which may be across industries, sectors or geographies) have impacted and may continue to impact certain issuers of the securities held by the Fund and in turn, may impact the financial performance of the Fund.
Russia's Invasion of Ukraine: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and corresponding events in late February 2022, have had, and could continue to have, severe adverse effects on regional and global economic markets for securities and commodities. Following Russia’s actions, various governments, including the United States, have issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia. The current events have had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on global markets performance and liquidity, thereby negatively affecting the value of the Fund's investments beyond any direct exposure to Russian or Ukrainian issuers. The duration of ongoing hostilities and the vast array of sanctions and related events cannot be predicted. Those events present material uncertainty and risk with respect to markets globally and the performance of the Fund and its investments or operations could be negatively impacted.

Notes to Financial Highlights Mid Cap Growth Portfolio
a
Calculated based on the average number of shares outstanding during each fiscal period.
b
Total return based on per share NAV reflects the effects of changes in NAV on the performance of the Fund
during each fiscal period. Returns assume income dividends and other distributions, if any, were reinvested.
Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current returns may be lower or
higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns and principal will fluctuate and shares, when
redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost. Total return would have been lower if
Management had not reimbursed and/or waived certain expenses. The total return information shown does
not reflect charges and other expenses that apply to the separate accounts or the related insurance policies
or other qualified pension or retirement plans, and the inclusion of these charges and other expenses would
reduce the total return for all fiscal periods shown.
c
The class action proceeds listed in Note A of the Notes to Financial Statements had no impact on the Fund’s
total returns for the year ended December 31, 2022. The class action proceeds received in 2021, 2019 and
2018 had no impact on the Fund’s total returns for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2019 and 2018,
respectively.
d
Represents the annualized ratios of net expenses to average daily net assets if Management had not
reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fee. Management did
not reimburse or waive fees during the fiscal periods shown for Class I.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Mid Cap Growth Portfolio
and Board of Trustees of the Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Mid Cap Growth Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the “Trust”)), including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Portfolio (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust) at December 31, 2022, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolio’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and others. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more Neuberger Berman investment companies since 1954.

Board Consideration of the Management Agreement
On an annual basis, the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”) of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the “Trust”), including the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust or of Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC (“Management”) (including its affiliates), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), (“Independent Fund Trustees”), considers whether to continue the management agreement with Management (the “Agreement”) with respect to Mid Cap Growth Portfolio (the “Fund”).  Throughout the process, the Independent Fund Trustees are advised by counsel that is experienced in 1940 Act matters and that is independent of Management (“Independent Counsel”).  At a meeting held on September 29, 2022, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement for the Fund.
In evaluating the Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, reviewed extensive materials provided by Management in response to questions submitted by the Independent Fund Trustees and Independent Counsel, and met with senior representatives of Management regarding its personnel, operations, and profitability as they relate to the Fund. The annual contract review extends over at least two regular meetings of the Board to ensure that Management has time to respond to any questions the Independent Fund Trustees may have on their initial review of the materials and that the Independent Fund Trustees have time to consider those responses. Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of Management.
In connection with its deliberations, the Board also considered the broad range of information relevant to the annual contract review that is provided to the Board (including its various standing committees) at meetings throughout the year, including reports on investment performance, portfolio risk, liquidity management, and other portfolio information for the Fund, as well as periodic reports on, among other matters, pricing and valuation; quality and cost of portfolio trade execution; compliance; and shareholder and other services provided by Management and its affiliates.  The Contract Review Committee, which is comprised solely of Independent Fund Trustees, was established by the Board to assist in its evaluation and analysis of materials for the annual contract review.  The Board has also established other committees that focus throughout the year on specific areas relevant to the annual contract review, such as Fund performance or compliance matters, and that are charged with specific responsibilities regarding the annual contract review.  Those committees provide reports to the full Board, including the members of the Contract Review Committee, which consider that information as part of the annual contract review process.  The Contract Review Committee annually considers and updates the questions it asks of Management in light of legal advice furnished to it by Independent Counsel; its own business judgment; and developments in the industry, in the markets, in mutual fund regulation and litigation, and in Management’s business model.
The Independent Fund Trustees received from Independent Counsel a memorandum discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreement.  During the course of the year and during their deliberations regarding the annual contract review, the Contract Review Committee and the Independent Fund Trustees met with Independent Counsel separately from representatives of Management.
34

Provided below is a description of the Board’s contract approval process and material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding renewal of the Agreement and the compensation to be paid thereunder.  In connection with its approval of the continuation of the Agreement, the Board evaluated the terms of the Agreement, the overall fairness of the Agreement to the Fund, and whether the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.  The Board’s determination to approve the continuation of the Agreement was based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Board throughout the year and specifically in connection with the annual contract review.  The Board considered the Fund’s investment management agreement separately from those of other funds of the Trust.
This description is not intended to include all of the factors considered by the Board.  The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors.  The Board focused on the costs and benefits of the Agreement to the Fund and, through the Fund, its shareholders.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services
With respect to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided, the Board considered the investment philosophy and decision-making processes of, and the qualifications, experience, and capabilities of, and the resources available to, the portfolio management personnel of Management who perform services for the Fund. The Board noted that Management also provides certain administrative services, including fund accounting and compliance services.  The Board also considered Management’s policies and practices regarding brokerage, commissions, other trading costs, and allocation of portfolio transactions and reviewed the quality of the execution services that Management had provided. The Board also reviewed Management’s use of brokers to execute Fund transactions that provide research services to Management.  Moreover, the Board considered Management’s approach to potential conflicts of interest both generally and between the Fund’s investments and those of other funds or accounts managed by Management.  The Board noted the additional responsibilities of Management in administering the liquidity risk management program.
The Board recognized the extensive range of services that Management provides to the Fund beyond the investment management services.  The Board noted that Management is also responsible for monitoring compliance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies, and restrictions, as well as compliance with applicable law, including implementing rulemaking initiatives of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Board considered that Management assumes significant ongoing entrepreneurial and business risks as the investment adviser and sponsor for the Fund, for which it is entitled to reasonable compensation.  The Trustees also considered that Management’s responsibilities include continual management of investment, operational, cybersecurity, enterprise, legal, regulatory, and compliance risks as they relate to the Fund, and the Board considers on a regular basis information regarding Management’s processes for monitoring and managing risk.  In addition, the Board also noted that when Management launches a new fund or share class, it assumes entrepreneurial risk with respect to that fund or share class, and that some funds and share classes have been liquidated without ever having been profitable to Management. 
The Board also reviewed and evaluated Management’s activities under its contractual obligation to oversee the Fund’s various outside service providers, including its renegotiation of certain service providers’ fees and its evaluation of service providers’ infrastructure, cybersecurity programs, compliance programs, and business continuity programs, among other matters.  The Board also considered Management’s ongoing development of its own infrastructure and information technology to support the Fund through, among other things, cybersecurity, business continuity planning, and risk management.  The Board noted Management’s largely seamless implementation of its business continuity plan in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its success in continuously providing services to the Fund notwithstanding the disruptions caused by the pandemic.  In addition, the Board noted the positive compliance history of Management, as no significant compliance problems were reported to the Board with respect to Management.  The Board also considered the general structure of the
35

portfolio managers’ compensation and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the Fund. The Board also considered the ability of Management to attract and retain qualified personnel to service the Fund.
As in past years, the Board also considered the manner in which Management addressed various matters that arose during the year, some of them a result of developments in the broader fund industry or the regulations governing it.  In addition, the Board considered actions taken by Management in response to market conditions over the past year and considered the overall performance of Management in this context.
Fund Performance
The Board requested a report from an outside consulting firm that specializes in the analysis of fund industry data that compared the Fund’s performance, along with its fees and other expenses, to a group of industry peers (“Expense Group”) and to a broader universe of funds pursuing generally similar strategies with the same investment classification and/or objective (“Performance Universe”).  The Board considered the outside consulting group’s statements regarding the composition of each of the Expense Group and Performance Universe and whether they were inclusive of non-proprietary funds, such as the Fund, operated for insurance company investors by independent investment managers or both proprietary funds that are operated by insurance companies or their affiliates, and non-proprietary funds.  The Board considered the Fund’s performance and fees in light of the limitations inherent in the methodology for constructing such comparative groups and determining which investment companies should be included in the comparative groups, noting differences as compared to certain fund industry ranking and rating systems.  The Board also considered the impact and inherent limitation on the comparisons due to the small number of funds included in the Fund’s Expense Group and Performance Universe.
With respect to investment performance, the Board considered information regarding the Fund’s short-, intermediate- and long-term performance, net of the Fund’s fees and expenses, on an absolute basis, relative to a benchmark index that does not deduct the fees or expenses of investing, and compared to the performance of the Expense Group and Performance Universe, each constructed by the consulting firm.  The Board also reviewed performance in relation to certain measures of the degree of investment risk undertaken by the portfolio managers.
The Performance Universe referenced in this section was identified by the consulting firm, as discussed above.  For any period of underperformance, the Board considered the magnitude and duration of that underperformance relative to the Performance Universe, and/or the benchmark (e.g., the amount by which a Fund underperformed, including, for example, whether the Fund slightly underperformed or significantly underperformed its benchmark).  With respect to performance quintile rankings for the Fund compared to its Performance Universe, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance. For investment performance comparisons, the Board looked at the Fund’s Class I as a proxy for both of the Fund’s classes.
The Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended December 31, 2021: (1) as compared to its benchmark, the Fund’s performance was higher for the 1- and 3-year periods and lower for the 5- and 10-year periods; and (2) as compared to its Performance Universe, the Fund’s performance was in the fourth quintile for the 1- and 10-year periods and the third quintile for the 3- and 5-year periods.  The Board noted the Fund’s outperformance versus its benchmark during the 7-month period and certain other periods ending July 31, 2022.  The Board also noted the Fund’s ranking was in the third quintile of its Lipper and Morningstar peer categories for the 7-month period ending July 31, 2022.  In addition, the Board met with members of the portfolio management team in October 2021 to discuss the Fund’s performance.
Noting that the Fund underperformed over certain periods, the Board discussed with Management the Fund’s performance, potential reasons for the relative performance, and, if necessary, steps that Management had taken,
36

or intended to take, to improve performance.  The Board recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. The Board further acknowledged that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance, and that a single investment theme could disproportionately affect performance.  The Board also considered Management’s responsiveness to the Fund’s relative performance.  In this regard, the Board noted that performance, especially short-term performance, is only one of the factors that it deems relevant to its consideration of the Agreement and that, after considering all relevant factors, it determined to approve the continuation of the Agreement notwithstanding the Fund’s relative performance.
Fee Rates, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits
With respect to the overall fairness of the Agreement, the Board considered the fee structure for the Fund under the Agreement as compared to the Expense Group provided by the consulting firm, as discussed above.  The Board reviewed a comparison of the Fund’s management fee to its Expense Group.  The Board noted that the comparative management fee analysis includes, in the Fund’s management fee, the separate administrative fees paid to Management.  However, the Board noted that some funds in the Expense Group pay directly from fund assets for certain services that Management covers out of the administration fees for the Fund.  Accordingly, the Board also considered the Fund’s total expense ratio as compared with its Expense Group as a way of taking account of these differences.
The Board compared the Fund’s contractual and actual management fees to the median of the contractual and actual management fees, respectively, of the Fund’s Expense Group. (The actual management fees are the contractual management fees reduced by any fee waivers or other adjustments.)  The Board also compared the Fund’s total expenses to the median of the total expenses of the Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that the Fund’s actual management fee and total expenses were higher than the Expense Group median, and considered whether specific portfolio management, administration or oversight needs contributed to the Fund’s actual management fee and total expenses.  With respect to the quintile rankings for fees and total expenses (net of waivers or other adjustments, if any) for the Fund compared to its Expense Group, the first quintile represents the lowest (best) fees and/or total expenses and the fifth quintile represents the highest fees and/or total expenses.  For fee comparisons, the Board looked at the Fund’s Class I as a proxy for both of the Fund’s classes.
The Board considered that, as compared to its Expense Group, the Fund’s contractual management fee, the actual management fee net of fees waived by Management, and total expenses each ranked in the fourth quintile.  In addition to considering the above-referenced factors, the Board took note of its ongoing dialogue with Management regarding the dynamics of the insurance/annuity marketplace.  The Board considered, among other matters, related tax restrictions and the unique challenges facing that market generally, which assisted the Board in understanding the context for the Fund’s expense ratio and performance.
In concluding that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund, the Board reviewed specific data as to Management’s estimated profit on the Fund for a recent period on a pre-tax basis without regard to distribution expenses. (The Board also reviewed data on Management’s estimated profit on the Fund after distribution/servicing expenses and taxes were factored in, as indicators of the health of the business and the extent to which Management is directing its profits into the growth of the business.)  The Board considered the cost allocation methodology that Management used in developing its estimated profitability figures.  In recent years, the Board engaged an independent forensic accountant to review the profitability methodology utilized by Management when preparing this information and discussed with the consultant its conclusion that Management’s process for calculating and reporting its estimated profit was not unreasonable. 
37

Recognizing that there is no uniform methodology regarding the allocation of firm-wide or complex-wide expenses within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose and that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to different profit and loss results, the Board, in the past, requested from Management examples of profitability calculated by different methods and noted that the estimated profitability levels were still reasonable when calculated by these other methods.  The Board further noted Management’s representation that its estimate of profitability is derived using methodology that is consistent with the methodology used to assess and/or report measures of profitability elsewhere at the firm.  In addition, the Board recognized that Management’s calculations regarding its costs may not reflect all risks, including regulatory, legal, operational, cybersecurity, reputational, and, where appropriate, entrepreneurial risks, associated with offering and managing a mutual fund in the current regulatory and market environment.  The Board also considered any fall-out (i.e., indirect) benefits likely to accrue to Management or its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund, such as research it may receive from broker-dealers executing the Fund’s portfolio transactions on an agency basis.  The Board recognized that Management and its affiliates should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for services they provide to the Fund and, based on its review, concluded that Management’s reported level of estimated profitability on the Fund was reasonable.
Information Regarding Services to Other Clients
The Board also considered other funds and separate accounts that were advised or sub-advised by Management or its affiliates with investment objectives, policies and strategies that were similar to those of the Fund, and compared the fees charged to the Fund to the fees charged to such comparable funds and separate accounts.  The Board considered the appropriateness and reasonableness of any differences between the fees charged to a Fund and such comparable funds and/or separate accounts, and determined that differences in fees and fee structures were consistent with the differences in the management and other services provided. The Board explored with Management its assertion that although, generally, the rates of fees paid by such accounts, except other Neuberger Berman mutual funds, were lower than the fee rates paid by the corresponding Fund, the differences reflected Management’s greater level of responsibilities and significantly broader scope of services to the Fund, the more extensive regulatory obligations and risks associated with managing the Fund, and other financial considerations with respect to creation and sponsorship of the Fund.
Economies of Scale
The Board also evaluated apparent or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services Management provides to the Fund. The Board considered whether the Fund’s fee structure provides for a reduction of payments resulting from the use of breakpoints, the size of any breakpoints in the Fund’s advisory fees, and whether any such breakpoints are set at appropriate asset levels.  The Board also compared the breakpoint structure to that of the Expense Group. In addition, the Board considered the expense limitation and/or fee waiver arrangements that reduces Fund expenses at all asset levels which can have an effect similar to breakpoints in sharing economies of scale with shareholders and provide protection from an increase in expenses if the Fund’s assets decline.  The Board also considered that Management has provided, at no added cost to the Fund, certain additional services, including but not limited to, services required by new regulations or regulatory interpretations, services impelled by changes in the securities markets or the business landscape, and/or services requested by the Board.  The Board considered that this is a way of sharing economies of scale with the Fund and its shareholders.
Conclusions
In approving the continuation of the Agreement, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Agreement are fair and reasonable to the Fund and that approval of the continuation of the Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.  In reaching this determination, the Board considered that Management could be expected to continue to provide a high level of service to the Fund; that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory over time; that the Board retained confidence in Management’s capabilities to
38

manage the Fund; that the Fund’s fee structure appeared to the Board to be reasonable given the nature, extent, and quality of services provided; and that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund.  The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of materials prepared in connection with the approval or continuance of the Agreement in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year, in addition to material prepared specifically for the most recent annual review of the Agreement.

Mid Cap Intrinsic Value Portfolio Commentary (Unaudited)
The Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Mid Cap Intrinsic Value Portfolio (the Fund) Class I generated a total return of -9.75% for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the reporting period), outperforming its benchmark, the Russell Midcap® Value Index (the Index), which returned -12.03% for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)
Reflecting on the economic and market outlook for 2023, it’s clear that the challenges encountered in 2022 and those that remain are mostly attributable to the global response to the pandemic. From disrupted supply chains to labor shortages and excessive financial stimulus, the long-term symptom of the pandemic policy responses here and abroad has been inflation. Reducing inflation is job one for the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed), and how this progresses is critically important if we aspire to a pre-pandemic economy. As much as we need the Fed to be successful in its quest to tame inflation, it’s critical that they accomplish the goal without engendering a severe economic contraction. We are a highly indebted society, and a deep recession could clearly risk a financial shock of some kind.
Throughout the reporting period, companies highlighted the difficulties they encountered running their operations. Parts shortages, increased logistics and labor costs, and spikes in commodity costs were often cited as reasons for earnings disappointments. As the year progressed and interest rates and the dollar rose, foreign exchange translations and increased borrowing costs were added to the litany of issues to navigate.
In spite of these obstacles, nearly half of the Fund’s earnings performance was either better or in line with analyst’s expectations prior to the start of the year. Not surprisingly, the other half of the Fund, where earnings were revised down, generated all the negative return for 2022. Our Communication Services and Consumer Discretionary and Staples stocks were amongst the hardest hit. Looking at what worked, our Energy, Industrials and Financials names helped. Despite the selloff in the Information Technology (IT) sector, we added value here as well.
Given the outsized impact negative earnings and revisions had on performance in 2022, it is worthwhile understanding the source of 2022’s disappointing results and the opportunity for recovery. The supply chain disruption was a huge challenge. We witnessed this with several of our technology investments and the well-publicized chip shortage. We believe solving this issue can go a long way toward reducing earnings risks in 2023 and setting the stage for a performance recovery.
Commodity costs and foreign exchange also played a role in the underperformers. Both of these items are now trending lower, and if interest rates peak, we believe they are less likely to repeat as reasons to revise earnings downward in the year ahead. Business conditions held up for most of the Fund, but the consensus among economists is that the economy will likely experience a recession in 2023 or 2024, the severity of which depends on how quickly the Fed shifts gears and starts to loosen rather than staying tight.
Our activity during the year was focused more on adding to underperformers and trimming winners rather than introducing new ideas. Additionally, only two companies in the Fund were acquired, slightly fewer than what we generally expect. The outlook for M&A in 2023 is also uncertain. Leveraged lending markets are virtually shut down, and caution prevails among private equity firms and strategic buyers. Smaller transactions by buyers looking for technology are likely, but public acquirers need to be very mindful of excessively leveraging their balance sheets.
We made eight new investments in 2022. Five were in our traditional wheelhouse of the IT and Industrials sectors, where a combination of complexity and interrupted growth led to underperformance.
While we are disappointed with 2022’s results, more relevant for us is a clear path forward. With higher interest rates and less room for stimulative government programs, we anticipate that future growth will have to come from innovation (productivity) and demographics. We remain confident in the compelling long-term opportunities in the mid cap equity market and our Fund, but uncertain that the challenges of 2022 will not prevail into 2023.

For current performance data, including current to the most recent month-end, please visit http://www.nb.com/amtportfolios/performance.
The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. The results do not reflect fees and expenses of the variable annuity and variable life insurance policies or the qualified pension and retirement plans whose proceeds are invested in the Fund.
The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. Repayment by a class (of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by NBIA) will decrease the class’s returns. Please see Note B in the Notes to Financial Statements for specific information regarding expense reimbursement and/or fee waiver arrangements.
As stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus, the total annual operating expense ratios for fiscal year 2021 were 1.00% and 1.26% for Class I and Class S shares, respectively (before expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, if any). The expense ratios for the annual period ended December 31, 2022 can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

COMPARISON OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT
This graph shows the change in value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the past 10 fiscal years, or since the Fund’s inception, if it has not operated for 10 years. The graph is based on Class I shares only; the performance of the Fund’s share classes will differ primarily due to different class expenses (see Performance Highlights chart above). The result is compared with benchmarks, which include a broad-based market index and may include a more narrowly based index. Market indices have not been reduced to reflect any of the fees and costs of investing. The results shown in the graph reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. The results do not reflect fees and expenses of the variable annuity and variable life insurance policies or the qualified pension and retirement plans whose proceeds are invested in the Fund. Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results.

Information About Your Fund’s Expenses (Unaudited)
As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs such as fees and expenses that are, or may be, imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (if applicable), and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in U.S. dollars) of investing in the Fund and compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
This table is designed to provide information regarding costs related to your investments. The following examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the six month period ended December 31, 2022 and held for the entire period. The table illustrates the Fund’s costs in two ways:
Actual Expenses and
Performance:
The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual
expenses in dollars, based on the Fund’s actual performance during the period indicated.
You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to
estimate the expenses 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 section of the table under the heading entitled
"Expenses Paid During the Period" to estimate the expenses you paid over the period.
Hypothetical Example for
Comparison Purposes:
The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values
and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate
of return at 5% per year before expenses. This return 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 this Fund versus other funds. To do so,
compare the expenses shown in this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical
examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not include any transaction costs, such as fees and expenses that are, or may be imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical (5% annual 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 transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements Mid Cap Intrinsic Value Portfolio
Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
1
General: Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust") is a Delaware statutory trust
organized pursuant to an Amended and Restated Trust Instrument dated March 27, 2014. The Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the "1940 Act"), and its shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Mid Cap Intrinsic Value Portfolio (the "Fund") is a separate operating series of the Trust and is diversified. The Fund currently offers Class I and Class S shares. The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the "Board") may establish additional series or classes of shares without the approval of shareholders.
A balance indicated with a "—", reflects either a zero balance or a balance that rounds to less than 1.
The assets of the Fund belong only to the Fund, and the liabilities of the Fund are borne solely by the Fund and no other series of the Trust.
The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 "Financial Services—Investment Companies."
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires Management to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Shares of the Fund are not available to the general public and may be purchased only by life insurance companies to serve as an investment vehicle for premiums paid under their variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts and to certain qualified pension and other retirement plans.
2
Portfolio valuation: In accordance with ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurement" ("ASC 820"), all investments held by the Fund are carried at the value that Management believes the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment under current market conditions. Various inputs, including the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in the market, are considered in valuing the Fund's investments, some of which are discussed below. At times, Management may need to apply significant judgment to value investments in accordance with ASC 820.
ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to create a classification of value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 – other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, amortized cost, etc.)
Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodology used for valuing an investment are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The value of the Fund’s investments in equity securities, for which market quotations are available, is generally determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on
the latest sale price quoted on a principal exchange or market for that security (Level 1 inputs). Securities traded primarily on the NASDAQ Stock Market are normally valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. The NOCP is the most recently reported price as of
13

4:00:02 p.m., Eastern Time, unless that price is outside the range of the "inside" bid and asked prices (i.e., the bid and asked prices that dealers quote to each other when trading for their own accounts); in that case, NASDAQ will adjust the price to equal the inside bid or asked price, whichever is closer. Because of delays in reporting trades, the NOCP may not be based on the price of the last trade to occur before the market closes. If there is no sale of a security on a particular day, the independent pricing services may value the security based on market quotations.
Management has developed a process to periodically review information provided by independent pricing services for all types of securities.
Investments in non-exchange traded investment companies are valued using the respective fund’s daily calculated net asset value ("NAV") per share (Level 2 inputs), when available.
If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, or if Management has reason to believe that the valuation received does not represent the amount the Fund might reasonably expect to receive on a current sale in an orderly transaction, Management seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers (generally considered Level 2 or Level 3 inputs depending on the number of quotes available). If such quotations are not available, the security is valued using methods Management has approved in the good-faith belief that the resulting valuation will reflect the fair value of the security. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board designated Management as the Fund's valuation designee. As the Fund's valuation designee, Management is responsible for determining fair value in good faith for any and all Fund investments. Inputs and assumptions considered in determining the fair value of a security based on Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to, the type of the security; the initial cost of the security; the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; quotations or evaluated prices from broker-dealers and/or pricing services; information obtained from the issuer and/or analysts; an analysis of the company’s or issuer’s financial statements; an evaluation of the inputs that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
Fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security is next quoted or next trades.
3
Foreign currency translations: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are normally translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on days the New York Stock Exchange is open for business, to determine the value of investments, other assets and liabilities. Purchase and sale prices of securities, and income and expenses, are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Net unrealized foreign currency gain/(loss), if any, arises from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, as a result of changes in exchange rates and is stated separately in the Statement of Operations.
4
Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign dividends, as soon as the Fund becomes aware of the dividends. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, including accretion of discount (adjusted for original issue discount, where applicable), if any, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions and foreign currency transactions, if any, are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statement of Operations. Included in net realized gain/(loss) on investments are proceeds from the settlement of class action litigation(s) in which the Fund participated as a class member. The amount of such proceeds for the year ended December 31, 2022, was $22,504.
5
Income tax information: The Fund is treated as a separate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company ("RIC") by complying with the requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs and to distribute
14

substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to its shareholders. To the extent the Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to shareholders, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.
ASC 740 "Income Taxes" sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as an income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not yet expired. As of December 31, 2022, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax positions.
For federal income tax purposes, the estimated cost of investments held at December 31, 2022 was $105,904,350. The estimated gross unrealized appreciation was $32,375,506 and estimated gross unrealized depreciation was $14,225,075 resulting in net unrealized appreciation in value of investments of $18,150,431 based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund. The Fund may also utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of their shares as a part of the dividends-paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Any permanent differences resulting from different book and tax treatment are reclassified at year-end and have no impact on net income, NAV or NAV per share of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2022, there were no permanent differences requiring a reclassification between total distributable earnings/(losses) and paid-in capital.
The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, was as follows:

The temporary differences between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings are primarily due to losses disallowed and recognized on wash sales and tax adjustments related to other investments.
6
Distributions to shareholders: The Fund may earn income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed once a year (usually in October) and are recorded on the ex-date.
It is the policy of the Fund to pass through to its shareholders substantially all real estate investment trust ("REIT") distributions and other income it receives, less operating expenses. The distributions received from REITs are generally composed of income, capital gains, and/or return of REIT capital, but the REITs do not report this information to the Fund until the following calendar year. At December 31, 2022, the Fund estimated these amounts for the period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022 within the financial statements because the 2022 information is not available from the REITs until after the Fund's fiscal
15

year-end. All estimates are based upon REIT information sources available to the Fund together with actual IRS Forms 1099-DIV received to date. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the character of distributions paid to shareholders of the Fund, if any, disclosed within the Statements of Changes in Net Assets is based on estimates made at that time. Based on past experience it is possible that a portion of the Fund’s distributions during the current fiscal year, if any, will be considered tax return of capital, but the actual amount of the tax return of capital, if any, is not determinable until after the Fund’s fiscal year-end. After calendar year-end, when the Fund learns the nature of the distributions paid by REITs during that year, distributions previously identified as income are often recharacterized as return of capital and/or capital gain. After all applicable REITs have informed the Fund of the actual breakdown of distributions paid to the Fund during its fiscal year, estimates previously recorded are adjusted to reflect actual results. As a result, the composition of the Fund’s distributions as reported herein may differ from the final composition determined after calendar year-end.
7
Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds within the complex of related investment companies. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses of the Trust that are not directly attributable to a particular series of the Trust (e.g., the Fund) are allocated among the series of the Trust, on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the series can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which NBIA serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributable to a particular investment company in the complex (e.g., the Trust) or series thereof are allocated among the investment companies in the complex or series thereof on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the investment companies in the complex or series thereof can otherwise be made fairly. The Fund’s expenses (other than those specific to each class) are allocated proportionally each day among its classes based upon the relative net assets of each class.
8
Investments in foreign securities: Investing in foreign securities may involve sovereign and other risks, in addition to the credit and market risks normally associated with domestic securities. These additional risks include the possibility of adverse political and economic developments (including political instability, nationalization, expropriation, or confiscatory taxation) and the potentially adverse effects of unavailability of public information regarding issuers, less governmental supervision and regulation of financial markets, reduced liquidity of certain financial markets, and the lack of uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards or the application of standards that are different or less stringent than those applied in the United States. Foreign securities also may experience greater price volatility, higher rates of inflation, and delays in settlement.
9
Investment company securities and exchange-traded funds: The Fund may invest in shares of other registered investment companies, including exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), within the limitations prescribed by the 1940 Act, in reliance on rules adopted by the SEC, particularly Rule 12d1-4 or any other applicable exemptive relief. Rule 12d1-4 permits fund of funds arrangements, and includes (i) limits on control and voting; (ii) required evaluations and findings; (iii) required fund of funds investment agreements; and (iv) limits on complex structures. Shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear their proportionate share of any management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the management fees and expenses of the Fund.
10
Foreign taxes: Foreign taxes withheld, if any, represent amounts withheld by foreign tax authorities, net of refunds recoverable.
11
Securities lending: The Fund, using State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") as its lending agent, may loan securities to qualified brokers and dealers in exchange for negotiated lender’s fees. These fees, if any, would be disclosed within the Statement of Operations under the caption "Income from securities loaned-net" and are net of expenses retained by State Street as compensation for its services as lending agent.
The initial collateral received by the Fund at the beginning of each transaction shall have a value equal to at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities (105% in the case of international securities). Collateral in the form of cash and/or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or
16

its agencies, equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities, is maintained at all times. Thereafter, the value of the collateral is monitored on a daily basis, and collateral is moved daily between a counterparty and the Fund until the close of the transaction. Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of State Street and is included on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The total value of securities received as collateral for securities on loan is included in a footnote following the Schedule of Investments, but is not included within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities because the receiving Fund does not have the right to sell or repledge the securities received as collateral. The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities. Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the securities loaned and any interest earned or dividends paid or owed on those securities during the term of the loan would accrue to the Fund.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not participate in securities lending.
12
Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Trust’s organizational documents provide that its officers ("Officers") and trustees ("Trustees") are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against the Trust.
13
Other: All net investment income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Fund are allocated, on the basis of relative net assets, pro rata among its respective classes.
Note B—Investment Management Fees, Administration Fees, Distribution Arrangements, and Other Transactions with Affiliates:
The Fund retains NBIA as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, the Fund pays NBIA an investment management fee at an annual rate of 0.55% of the first $250 million of the Fund’s average daily net assets, 0.525% of the next $250 million, 0.50% of the next $250 million, 0.475% of the next $250 million, 0.45% of the next $500 million, 0.425% of the next $2.5 billion, and 0.40% of average daily net assets in excess of $4 billion. Accordingly, for the year ended December 31, 2022, the investment management fee pursuant to the Management Agreement was equivalent to an annual effective rate of 0.55% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
The Fund retains NBIA as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. Each class pays NBIA an administration fee at the annual rate of 0.30% of its average daily net assets. Additionally, NBIA retains State Street as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. NBIA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.
NBIA has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Fund’s Class I and Class S shares so that the total annual operating expenses of those classes do not exceed the expense limitations as detailed in the following table. These undertakings exclude interest, taxes, transaction costs, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, extraordinary expenses, and dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, if any (commitment fees relating to borrowings are treated as interest for purposes of this exclusion) ("annual operating expenses"); consequently, net expenses may exceed the contractual expense limitations. The Fund has agreed that each of its classes will repay NBIA for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for that class provided that repayment does not cause that class’s annual operating expenses to exceed its contractual expense limitation in place at the time the fees and expenses were waived or reimbursed, or the expense limitation in place at the time the Fund repays NBIA, whichever is lower. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the year in which NBIA incurred the expense.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, there was no repayment to NBIA under these agreements.

At December 31, 2022, the Fund's contingent liabilities to NBIA under the agreements were as follows:

Neuberger Berman BD LLC (the "Distributor") is the Fund’s "principal underwriter" within the meaning of the 1940 Act. It acts as agent in arranging for the sale of the Fund’s Class I shares without sales commission or other compensation and bears all advertising and promotion expenses incurred in the sale of those shares. The Board adopted a non-fee distribution plan for the Fund’s Class I shares.
The Board has adopted a distribution and shareholder services plan (the “Plan”) for Class S shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plan provides that, as compensation for administrative and other services related to the sale and distribution of Class S shares, and ongoing services provided to investors in the class, the Distributor receives from Class S a fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of Class S’s average daily net assets. The Distributor may pay a portion of the proceeds from the 12b-1 fee to institutions that provide such services, including insurance companies or their affiliates and qualified plan administrators (“intermediaries”) for services they provide respecting the Fund to current and prospective variable contract owners and qualified plan participants that invest in the Fund through the intermediaries. Those institutions may use the payments for, among other purposes, compensating employees engaged in sales and/or shareholder servicing. The amount of fees paid by the class during any year may be more or less than the cost of distribution and other services provided to the class. FINRA rules limit the amount of annual distribution fees that may be paid by a mutual fund and impose a ceiling on the cumulative distribution fees paid. The Plan complies with those rules.
Note C—Securities Transactions:
During the year ended December 31, 2022, there were purchase and sale transactions of long-term securities of $18,690,413 and $31,205,221, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, no brokerage commissions on securities transactions were paid to affiliated brokers.
Note D—Fund Share Transactions:
Share activity for the years ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, was as follows:

Note E—Line of Credit:
At December 31, 2022, the Fund was a participant in a syndicated committed, unsecured $700,000,000 line of credit (the "Credit Facility"), to be used only for temporary or emergency purposes. Series of other investment companies managed by NBIA also participate in this line of credit on substantially the same terms. Interest is charged on borrowings under this Credit Facility at the highest of (a) a federal funds effective rate plus 1.00% per annum, (b) a daily simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 1.10% per annum, and (c) an overnight bank funding rate plus 1.00% per annum; provided that should the Administrative Agent of the Credit Facility determine that the daily simple SOFR rate is unavailable, then the interest rate option described in (b) shall be replaced with a benchmark replacement determined to be applicable by such Administrative Agent. The Credit Facility has an annual commitment fee of 0.15% per annum of the available line of credit, which is paid quarterly. The Fund has agreed to pay its pro rata share of the annual commitment fee, based on the ratio of its individual net assets to the net assets of all participants at the time the fee is due, and interest charged on any borrowing made by the Fund and other costs incurred by the Fund. Because several mutual funds participate in the Credit Facility, there is no assurance that the Fund will have access to all or any part of the $700,000,000 at any particular time. There were no loans outstanding under the Credit Facility at December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not utilize the Credit Facility.
Note F—Recent Accounting Pronouncement:
In June 2022, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2022-03, "Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions" ("ASU 2022-03"). ASU 2022-03 clarifies the guidance in ASC 820, related to the measurement of the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual sale restrictions, where it eliminates the ability to apply a discount to the fair value of these securities, and introduces disclosure requirements related to such equity securities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, and allows for early adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact of applying this update.
Note G—Other Matters:
Coronavirus: The outbreak of the novel coronavirus in many countries has, among other things, disrupted global travel and supply chains, and adversely impacted global commercial activity, the transportation industry and commodity prices in the energy sector. The impact of this virus has negatively affected and may continue to affect the economies of many nations, individual companies and the global securities and commodities markets, including liquidity and volatility. The development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to its ultimate impact, which may have a continued adverse effect on global economic and market conditions. Such conditions (which may be across industries, sectors or geographies) have impacted and may continue to impact certain issuers of the securities held by the Fund and in turn, may impact the financial performance of the Fund.
Russia's Invasion of Ukraine: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and corresponding events in late February 2022, have had, and could continue to have, severe adverse effects on regional and global economic markets for securities and commodities. Following Russia’s actions, various governments, including the United States, have issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia. The current events have had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on global markets performance and liquidity, thereby negatively affecting the value of the Fund's investments beyond any direct exposure to Russian or Ukrainian issuers. The duration of ongoing hostilities and the vast array of sanctions and related events cannot be predicted. Those events present material uncertainty and risk with respect to markets globally and the performance of the Fund and its investments or operations could be negatively impacted.

Notes to Financial Highlights Mid Cap Intrinsic Value Portfolio
a
Calculated based on the average number of shares outstanding during each fiscal period.
b
Total return based on per share NAV reflects the effects of changes in NAV on the performance of the Fund
during each fiscal period. Returns assume income dividends and other distributions, if any, were reinvested.
Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current returns may be lower or
higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns and principal will fluctuate and shares, when
redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost. Total return would have been lower if
Management had not reimbursed and/or waived certain expenses. Total return would have been higher if
Management had not recouped previously reimbursed and/or waived expenses. The total return information
shown does not reflect charges and other expenses that apply to the separate accounts or the related
insurance policies or other qualified pension or retirement plans, and the inclusion of these charges and
other expenses would reduce the total return for all fiscal periods shown.
c
The class action proceeds listed in Note A of the Notes to Financial Statements had no impact on the Fund’s
total returns for the year ended December 31, 2022. The class action proceeds received in 2019 and 2018
had no impact on the Fund’s total returns for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
d
Represents the annualized ratios of net expenses to average daily net assets if Management had not
reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fee. Management did
not reimburse or waive fees during the fiscal periods shown for Class I.
e
After repayment of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by Management, as
applicable. Had the Fund not made such repayments, the annualized ratios of net expenses to average net
assets would have been:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Mid Cap Intrinsic Value Portfolio
and Board of Trustees of the Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Mid Cap Intrinsic Value Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust")), including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Portfolio (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust) at December 31, 2022, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolio’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and others. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more Neuberger Berman investment companies since 1954.

Board Consideration of the Management Agreement
On an annual basis, the Board of Trustees (the "Board" or "Trustees") of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust"), including the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust or of Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("Management") (including its affiliates), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), ("Independent Fund Trustees"), considers whether to continue the management agreement with Management (the "Agreement") with respect to Mid Cap Intrinsic Value Portfolio (the "Fund"). Throughout the process, the Independent Fund Trustees are advised by counsel that is experienced in 1940 Act matters and that is independent of Management ("Independent Counsel"). At a meeting held on September 29, 2022, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement for the Fund.
In evaluating the Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, reviewed extensive materials provided by Management in response to questions submitted by the Independent Fund Trustees and Independent Counsel, and met with senior representatives of Management regarding its personnel, operations, and profitability as they relate to the Fund. The annual contract review extends over at least two regular meetings of the Board to ensure that Management has time to respond to any questions the Independent Fund Trustees may have on their initial review of the materials and that the Independent Fund Trustees have time to consider those responses. Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of Management.
In connection with its deliberations, the Board also considered the broad range of information relevant to the annual contract review that is provided to the Board (including its various standing committees) at meetings throughout the year, including reports on investment performance, portfolio risk, liquidity management, and other portfolio information for the Fund, as well as periodic reports on, among other matters, pricing and valuation; quality and cost of portfolio trade execution; compliance; and shareholder and other services provided by Management and its affiliates.  The Contract Review Committee, which is comprised solely of Independent Fund Trustees, was established by the Board to assist in its evaluation and analysis of materials for the annual contract review.  The Board has also established other committees that focus throughout the year on specific areas relevant to the annual contract review, such as Fund performance or compliance matters, and that are charged with specific responsibilities regarding the annual contract review. Those committees provide reports to the full Board, including the members of the Contract Review Committee, which consider that information as part of the annual contract review process. The Contract Review Committee annually considers and updates the questions it asks of Management in light of legal advice furnished to it by Independent Counsel; its own business judgment; and developments in the industry, in the markets, in mutual fund regulation and litigation, and in Management’s business model.
The Independent Fund Trustees received from Independent Counsel a memorandum discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreement. During the course of the year and during their deliberations regarding the annual contract review, the Contract Review Committee and the Independent Fund Trustees met with Independent Counsel separately from representatives of Management.

Provided below is a description of the Board’s contract approval process and material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding renewal of the Agreement and the compensation to be paid thereunder. In connection with its approval of the continuation of the Agreement, the Board evaluated the terms of the Agreement, the overall fairness of the Agreement to the Fund, and whether the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. The Board’s determination to approve the continuation of the Agreement was based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Board throughout the year and specifically in connection with the annual contract review. The Board considered the Fund’s investment management agreement separately from those of other funds of the Trust.
This description is not intended to include all of the factors considered by the Board. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The Board focused on the costs and benefits of the Agreement to the Fund and, through the Fund, its shareholders.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services
With respect to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided, the Board considered the investment philosophy and decision-making processes of, and the qualifications, experience, and capabilities of, and the resources available to, the portfolio management personnel of Management who perform services for the Fund. The Board noted that Management also provides certain administrative services, including fund accounting and compliance services. The Board also considered Management’s policies and practices regarding brokerage, commissions, other trading costs, and allocation of portfolio transactions and reviewed the quality of the execution services that Management had provided. The Board also reviewed Management’s use of brokers to execute Fund transactions that provide research services to Management. Moreover, the Board considered Management’s approach to potential conflicts of interest both generally and between the Fund’s investments and those of other funds or accounts managed by Management. The Board noted the additional responsibilities of Management in administering the liquidity risk management program.
The Board recognized the extensive range of services that Management provides to the Fund beyond the investment management services. The Board noted that Management is also responsible for monitoring compliance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies, and restrictions, as well as compliance with applicable law, including implementing rulemaking initiatives of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board considered that Management assumes significant ongoing entrepreneurial and business risks as the investment adviser and sponsor for the Fund, for which it is entitled to reasonable compensation. The Trustees also considered that Management’s responsibilities include continual management of investment, operational, cybersecurity, enterprise, legal, regulatory, and compliance risks as they relate to the Fund, and the Board considers on a regular basis information regarding Management’s processes for monitoring and managing risk.  In addition, the Board also noted that when Management launches a new fund or share class, it assumes entrepreneurial risk with respect to that fund or share class, and that some funds and share classes have been liquidated without ever having been profitable to Management.
The Board also reviewed and evaluated Management’s activities under its contractual obligation to oversee the Fund’s various outside service providers, including its renegotiation of certain service providers’ fees and its evaluation of service providers’ infrastructure, cybersecurity programs, compliance programs, and business continuity programs, among other matters. The Board also considered Management’s ongoing development of its own infrastructure and information technology to support the Fund through, among other things, cybersecurity, business continuity planning, and risk management. The Board noted Management’s largely seamless implementation of its business continuity plan in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its success in continuously providing services to the Fund notwithstanding the disruptions caused by the pandemic.  In addition, the Board noted the positive compliance history of Management, as no significant compliance problems were reported to the Board with respect to Management. The Board also considered the general structure of the
36

portfolio managers’ compensation and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the Fund. The Board also considered the ability of Management to attract and retain qualified personnel to service the Fund.
As in past years, the Board also considered the manner in which Management addressed various matters that arose during the year, some of them a result of developments in the broader fund industry or the regulations governing it. In addition, the Board considered actions taken by Management in response to market conditions over the past year and considered the overall performance of Management in this context.
Fund Performance
The Board requested a report from an outside consulting firm that specializes in the analysis of fund industry data that compared the Fund’s performance, along with its fees and other expenses, to a group of industry peers ("Expense Group") and to a broader universe of funds pursuing generally similar strategies with the same investment classification and/or objective ("Performance Universe"). The Board considered the outside consulting group’s statements regarding the composition of each of the Expense Group and Performance Universe and whether they were inclusive of non-proprietary funds, such as the Fund, operated for insurance company investors by independent investment managers or both proprietary funds that are operated by insurance companies or their affiliates, and non-proprietary funds. The Board considered the Fund’s performance and fees in light of the limitations inherent in the methodology for constructing such comparative groups and determining which investment companies should be included in the comparative groups, noting differences as compared to certain fund industry ranking and rating systems. The Board also considered the impact and inherent limitation on the comparisons due to the small number of funds included in the Fund’s Expense Group and Performance Universe.
With respect to investment performance, the Board considered information regarding the Fund’s short-, intermediate- and long-term performance, net of the Fund’s fees and expenses, on an absolute basis, relative to a benchmark index that does not deduct the fees or expenses of investing, and compared to the performance of the Expense Group and Performance Universe, each constructed by the consulting firm. The Board also reviewed performance in relation to certain measures of the degree of investment risk undertaken by the portfolio managers.
The Performance Universe referenced in this section was identified by the consulting firm, as discussed above.  For any period of underperformance, the Board considered the magnitude and duration of that underperformance relative to the Performance Universe, and/or the benchmark (e.g., the amount by which a Fund underperformed, including, for example, whether the Fund slightly underperformed or significantly underperformed its benchmark).  With respect to performance quintile rankings for the Fund compared to its Performance Universe, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance. For investment performance comparisons, the Board looked at the Fund’s Class I as a proxy for both of the Fund’s classes.
The Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended December 31, 2021: (1) as compared to its benchmark, the Fund’s performance was higher for the 1-year period and lower for the 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods; and (2) as compared to its Performance Universe, the Fund’s performance was in the first quintile for the 1-year period and the fifth quintile for the 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods.  The Board noted the Fund’s outperformance versus its benchmark during the 7-month period ending July 31, 2022.  The Board also noted the Fund’s ranking was in the third quintile of its Morningstar peer category for the 7-month period ending July 31, 2022.  The Board considered Management’s representations regarding the factors impacting the Fund’s performance and discussed with Management the additional portfolio management resources that were added to the Fund in 2021 and the steps it was taking with respect to the Fund’s performance.  In addition, the Board met with members of the portfolio management team in October 2021 to discuss the Fund’s performance.
37

Noting that the Fund underperformed over certain periods, the Board discussed with Management the Fund’s performance, potential reasons for the relative performance, and, if necessary, steps that Management had taken, or intended to take, to improve performance.  The Board recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. The Board further acknowledged that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance, and that a single investment theme could disproportionately affect performance.  The Board also considered Management’s responsiveness to the Fund’s relative performance.  In this regard, the Board noted that performance, especially short-term performance, is only one of the factors that it deems relevant to its consideration of the Agreement and that, after considering all relevant factors, it determined to approve the continuation of the Agreement notwithstanding the Fund’s relative performance.
Fee Rates, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits
With respect to the overall fairness of the Agreement, the Board considered the fee structure for the Fund under the Agreement as compared to the Expense Group provided by the consulting firm, as discussed above. The Board reviewed a comparison of the Fund’s management fee to its Expense Group. The Board noted that the comparative management fee analysis includes, in the Fund’s management fee, the separate administrative fees paid to Management. However, the Board noted that some funds in the Expense Group pay directly from fund assets for certain services that Management covers out of the administration fees for the Fund. Accordingly, the Board also considered the Fund’s total expense ratio as compared with its Expense Group as a way of taking account of these differences.
The Board compared the Fund’s contractual and actual management fees to the median of the contractual and actual management fees, respectively, of the Fund’s Expense Group. (The actual management fees are the contractual management fees reduced by any fee waivers or other adjustments.) The Board also compared the Fund’s total expenses to the median of the total expenses of the Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that the Fund’s actual management fee and total expenses were higher than the Expense Group median, and considered whether specific portfolio management, administration or oversight needs or the Fund’s relatively small size contributed to the Fund’s actual management fee and total expenses. With respect to the quintile rankings for fees and total expenses (net of waivers or other adjustments, if any) for the Fund compared to its Expense Group, the first quintile represents the lowest (best) fees and/or total expenses and the fifth quintile represents the highest fees and/or total expenses. For fee comparisons, the Board looked at the Fund’s Class I as a proxy for both of the Fund’s classes.
The Board considered that, as compared to its Expense Group, the Fund’s contractual management fee ranked in the fourth quintile and the actual management fee and total expenses each ranked in the fifth quintile. In addition to considering the above-referenced factors, the Board took note of its ongoing dialogue with Management regarding the dynamics of the insurance/annuity marketplace. The Board considered, among other matters, related tax restrictions and the unique challenges facing that market generally, which assisted the Board in understanding the context for the Fund’s expense ratio and performance.
In concluding that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund, the Board reviewed specific data as to Management’s estimated profit on the Fund for a recent period on a pre-tax basis without regard to distribution expenses. (The Board also reviewed data on Management’s estimated profit on the Fund after distribution/servicing expenses and taxes were factored in, as indicators of the health of the business and the extent to which Management is directing its profits into the growth of the business.) The Board noted that when distribution expenses and taxes were considered, Management experienced a loss on the Fund.)  The Board considered the cost allocation methodology that Management used in developing its estimated profitability figures. In recent years, the Board engaged an
38

independent forensic accountant to review the profitability methodology utilized by Management when preparing this information and discussed with the consultant its conclusion that Management’s process for calculating and reporting its estimated profit was not unreasonable.
Recognizing that there is no uniform methodology regarding the allocation of firm-wide or complex-wide expenses within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose and that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to different profit and loss results, the Board, in the past, requested from Management examples of profitability calculated by different methods and noted that the estimated profitability levels were still reasonable when calculated by these other methods. The Board further noted Management’s representation that its estimate of profitability is derived using methodology that is consistent with the methodology used to assess and/or report measures of profitability elsewhere at the firm. In addition, the Board recognized that Management’s calculations regarding its costs may not reflect all risks, including regulatory, legal, operational, cybersecurity, reputational, and, where appropriate, entrepreneurial risks, associated with offering and managing a mutual fund in the current regulatory and market environment. The Board also considered any fall-out (i.e., indirect) benefits likely to accrue to Management or its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund, such as research it may receive from broker-dealers executing the Fund’s portfolio transactions on an agency basis. The Board recognized that Management and its affiliates should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for services they provide to the Fund and, based on its review, concluded that Management’s reported level of estimated profitability on the Fund was reasonable.
Information Regarding Services to Other Clients
The Board also considered other funds and separate accounts that were advised or sub-advised by Management or its affiliates with investment objectives, policies and strategies that were similar to those of the Fund, and compared the fees charged to the Fund to the fees charged to such comparable funds and separate accounts. The Board considered the appropriateness and reasonableness of any differences between the fees charged to a Fund and such comparable funds and/or separate accounts, and determined that differences in fees and fee structures were consistent with the differences in the management and other services provided. The Board explored with Management its assertion that although, generally, the rates of fees paid by such accounts, except other Neuberger Berman mutual funds, were lower than the fee rates paid by the corresponding Fund, the differences reflected Management’s greater level of responsibilities and significantly broader scope of services to the Fund, the more extensive regulatory obligations and risks associated with managing the Fund, and other financial considerations with respect to creation and sponsorship of the Fund.
Economies of Scale
The Board also evaluated apparent or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services Management provides to the Fund. The Board considered whether the Fund’s fee structure provides for a reduction of payments resulting from the use of breakpoints, the size of any breakpoints in the Fund’s advisory fees, and whether any such breakpoints are set at appropriate asset levels. The Board also compared the breakpoint structure to that of the Expense Group. In addition, the Board considered the expense limitation and/or fee waiver arrangements that reduces Fund expenses at all asset levels which can have an effect similar to breakpoints in sharing economies of scale with shareholders and provide protection from an increase in expenses if the Fund’s assets decline. The Board also considered that Management has provided, at no added cost to the Fund, certain additional services, including but not limited to, services required by new regulations or regulatory interpretations, services impelled by changes in the securities markets or the business landscape, and/or services requested by the Board. The Board considered that this is a way of sharing economies of scale with the Fund and its shareholders.
39

Conclusions
In approving the continuation of the Agreement, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Agreement are fair and reasonable to the Fund and that approval of the continuation of the Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. In reaching this determination, the Board considered that Management could be expected to continue to provide a high level of service to the Fund; that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory over time; that the Board retained confidence in Management’s capabilities to manage the Fund; that the Fund’s fee structure appeared to the Board to be reasonable given the nature, extent, and quality of services provided or the Fund’s relatively small size; and that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund. The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of materials prepared in connection with the approval or continuance of the Agreement in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year, in addition to material prepared specifically for the most recent annual review of the Agreement.

Short Duration Bond Portfolio Commentary (Unaudited)
The Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Short Duration Bond Portfolio (the Fund) Class I posted a -5.19% total return for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the reporting period), trailing its benchmark, the Bloomberg 1-3 Year U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index (the Index), which returned -3.69% for the same period.
The overall U.S. bond market fell sharply during the reporting period. This was driven by a number of factors, including elevated inflation, which reached a 40-year high in May. This triggered a sharp reversal in U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) monetary policy, which included seven rate hikes in 2022 for a total of 4.25%, the most since 1980. Investor sentiment was also negatively impacted by the repercussions from the war in Ukraine and the potential for the Fed’s action to push the economy into a recession. Against this backdrop, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index posted its worst ever calendar year return since the index’s inception in 1976. All told, the spread sectors (non-U.S. Treasury securities) generally experienced double-digit declines in 2022, as was the case with the overall Treasury market.
The largest detractor from the Fund’s performance during the reporting period was its exposure to structured products, including asset-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities. Our allocation to corporate bonds was also a headwind for returns. Their spreads widened due to their duration, interest rate sensitivity and periods of investor risk aversion, not because of significantly weakening corporate fundamentals, in our view. There were no significant contributors to relative performance in this challenging market environment, although security selection within Energy was additive.
The Fund’s use of futures contracts contributed positively to performance during the reporting period.
We maintained the Fund’s overall positioning during the reporting period, focusing on a diversified mix of non-Treasury spread sectors. Toward the end of the period, we increased the overall quality of the Fund and increased its cash position. In doing so, we have additional "dry powder" to use to take advantage of market dislocations.
Looking ahead, while we have conviction that U.S. inflation will head lower in 2023, we believe it will take continued rate hikes by the Fed. In our view, the central bank is likely to be conservative in leaving rates higher for longer in order to avoid a "double-dip" rise in inflation, as occurred in the 1970s; it will likely look for a convincing decline in inflation before starting to cut rates. With the uncertainties surrounding the Fed and the trajectory for the economy, we have taken a more cautious approach for the Fund. In our view, this environment is well suited to active management given the array of macro events and the opportunities that can arise during periods of elevated volatility.

The performance data quoted represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. For current performance data, including current to the most recent month-end, please visit http://www.nb.com/amtportfolios/performance.
The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. The results do not reflect fees and expenses of the variable annuity and variable life insurance policies or the qualified pension and retirement plans whose proceeds are invested in the Fund. 
The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. Repayment by a class (of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by NBIA) will decrease the class’s returns. Please see Note B in the Notes to Financial Statements for specific information regarding expense reimbursement and/or fee waiver arrangements.
For the period ended December 31, 2022, the 30-day SEC yield was 5.48% for Class I shares.
As stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus, the total annual operating expense ratio for fiscal year 2021 was 0.83% for Class I shares (before expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, if any, and after restatement). The expense ratios for the annual period ended December 31, 2022 can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

COMPARISON OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT
This graph shows the change in value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the past 10 fiscal years, or since the Fund’s inception, if it has not operated for 10 years. The result is compared with benchmarks, which include a broad-based market index and may include a more narrowly based index. Market indices have not been reduced to reflect any of the fees and costs of investing. The results shown in the graph reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. The results do not reflect fees and expenses of the variable annuity and variable life insurance policies or the qualified pension and retirement plans whose proceeds are invested in the Fund. Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results.

The Bloomberg 1-3 Year U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index is the 1-3 year component of the Bloomberg
U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index. The Bloomberg U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index is the
non-securitized component of the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and includes Treasuries and
government-related (agency, sovereign, supranational, and local authority debt) and corporate securities.
Please note that the indices described in this report do not take into account any fees, expenses or tax
consequences of investing in the individual securities that they track, and that individuals cannot invest
directly in any index. Data about the performance of an index are prepared or obtained by Neuberger
Berman Investment Advisers LLC and reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions,
if any. The Fund may invest in securities not included in a described index and generally does not invest in
all securities included in a described index.
The investments for the Fund are managed by the same portfolio manager(s) who manage(s) one or more other registered funds that have names, investment objectives and investment styles that are similar to those of the Fund. You should be aware that the Fund is likely to differ from those other mutual fund(s) in size, cash flow pattern and tax matters. Accordingly, the holdings and performance of the Fund can be expected to vary from those of the other mutual fund(s).

Information About Your Fund’s Expenses (Unaudited)
As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs such as fees and expenses that are, or may be, imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (if applicable), and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in U.S. dollars) of investing in the Fund and compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
This table is designed to provide information regarding costs related to your investments. The following examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the six month period ended December 31, 2022 and held for the entire period. The table illustrates the Fund’s costs in two ways:
Actual Expenses and
Performance:
The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual
expenses in dollars, based on the Fund’s actual performance during the period indicated.
You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to
estimate the expenses 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 section of the table under the heading entitled
"Expenses Paid During the Period" to estimate the expenses you paid over the period.
Hypothetical Example for
Comparison Purposes:
The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values
and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate
of return at 5% per year before expenses. This return 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 this Fund versus other funds. To do so,
compare the expenses shown in this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical
examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not include any transaction costs, such as fees and expenses that are, or may be imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan. Therefore, the information under the heading "Hypothetical (5% annual 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 transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements Short Duration Bond Portfolio
Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
1
General: Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust") is a Delaware statutory trust
organized pursuant to an Amended and Restated Trust Instrument dated March 27, 2014. The Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the "1940 Act"), and its shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Short Duration Bond Portfolio (the "Fund") is a separate operating series of the Trust and is diversified. The Fund currently offers only Class I shares. The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the "Board") may establish additional series or classes of shares without the approval of shareholders.
A balance indicated with a "—", reflects either a zero balance or a balance that rounds to less than 1.
The assets of the Fund belong only to the Fund, and the liabilities of the Fund are borne solely by the Fund and no other series of the Trust.
The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 "Financial Services—Investment Companies."
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires Management to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Shares of the Fund are not available to the general public and may be purchased only by life insurance companies to serve as an investment vehicle for premiums paid under their variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts and to certain qualified pension and other retirement plans.
2
Portfolio valuation: In accordance with ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurement" ("ASC 820"), all investments held by the Fund are carried at the value that Management believes the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment under current market conditions. Various inputs, including the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in the market, are considered in valuing the Fund's investments, some of which are discussed below. At times, Management may need to apply significant judgment to value investments in accordance with ASC 820.
ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to create a classification of value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 – other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, amortized cost, etc.)
Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodology used for valuing an investment are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The value of the Fund’s investments in debt securities is determined by Management primarily by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on bid quotations, or if quotations are not available, by methods which include various considerations based on security type (generally Level 2 inputs). In addition to the consideration of yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type, indications as to values from dealers, and general market conditions, the following is a description of other
20

Level 2 inputs and related valuation techniques used by independent pricing services to value certain types of debt securities held by the Fund:
Corporate Bonds. Inputs used to value corporate debt securities generally include relevant credit information, observed market movements, sector news, U.S. Treasury yield curve or relevant benchmark curve, and other market information, which may include benchmark yield curves, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, comparable securities, and reference data, such as market research publications, when available ("Other Market Information").
Convertible Bonds. Inputs used to value convertible bonds generally include underlying stock data, conversion rates, credit specific details, relevant listed bond and preferred stock prices and Other Market Information.
Asset-Backed Securities and Mortgage-Backed Securities. Inputs used to value asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities generally include models that consider a number of factors, which may include the following: prepayment speeds, cash flows, spread adjustments and Other Market Information.
The value of futures contracts is determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services at the settlement price at the market close (Level 1 inputs).
Management has developed a process to periodically review information provided by independent pricing services for all types of securities.
Investments in non-exchange traded investment companies are valued using the respective fund’s daily calculated net asset value ("NAV") per share (Level 2 inputs), when available.
If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, or if Management has reason to believe that the valuation received does not represent the amount the Fund might reasonably expect to receive on a current sale in an orderly transaction, Management seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers (generally considered Level 2 or Level 3 inputs depending on the number of quotes available). If such quotations are not available, the security is valued using methods Management has approved in the good-faith belief that the resulting valuation will reflect the fair value of the security. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board designated Management as the Fund's valuation designee. As the Fund's valuation designee, Management is responsible for determining fair value in good faith for any and all Fund investments. Inputs and assumptions considered in determining the fair value of a security based on Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to, the type of the security; the initial cost of the security; the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; quotations or evaluated prices from broker-dealers and/or pricing services; information obtained from the issuer and/or analysts; an analysis of the company’s or issuer’s financial statements; an evaluation of the inputs that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
Fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security is next quoted or next trades.
3
Foreign currency translations: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are normally translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on days the New York Stock Exchange is open for business, to determine the value of investments, other assets and liabilities. Purchase and sale prices of securities, and income and expenses, are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Net unrealized foreign currency gain/(loss), if any, arises from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, as a result of changes in exchange rates and is stated separately in the Statement of Operations.
4
Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign dividends, as soon as the Fund becomes aware of the dividends. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, including
21

accretion of discount (adjusted for original issue discount, where applicable), if any, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions and foreign currency transactions, if any, are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statement of Operations.
5
Income tax information: The Fund is treated as a separate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company ("RIC") by complying with the requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to its shareholders. To the extent the Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to shareholders, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.
ASC 740 "Income Taxes" sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as an income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not yet expired. As of December 31, 2022, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax positions.
For federal income tax purposes, the estimated cost of investments held at December 31, 2022 was $92,031,178. The estimated gross unrealized appreciation was $360,801 and estimated gross unrealized depreciation was $8,204,020 resulting in net unrealized depreciation in value of investments of $(7,843,219) based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund. The Fund may also utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of their shares as a part of the dividends-paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Any permanent differences resulting from different book and tax treatment are reclassified at year-end and have no impact on net income, NAV or NAV per share of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2022, there were no permanent differences requiring a reclassification between total distributable earnings/(losses) and paid-in capital.
The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, was as follows:

The temporary differences between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings are primarily due to amortization of bond premium and mark-to-market adjustments on futures.
To the extent the Fund’s net realized capital gains, if any, can be offset by capital loss carryforwards, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gains. Capital loss carryforward rules allow for RICs to carry forward capital losses indefinitely and to retain the character of capital loss carryforwards as short-term or
22

long-term. As determined at December 31, 2022, the Fund had unused capital loss carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes to offset future net realized capital gains, if any, as follows:
 
Capital Loss Carryforwards
 
Long-Term
Short-Term
$25,744,241
$3,833,916
6
Foreign taxes: Foreign taxes withheld, if any, represent amounts withheld by foreign tax authorities, net of refunds recoverable.
7
Distributions to shareholders: The Fund may earn income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed once a year (usually in October) and are recorded on the ex-date.
8
Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds within the complex of related investment companies. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses of the Trust that are not directly attributable to a particular series of the Trust (e.g., the Fund) are allocated among the series of the Trust, on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the series can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which NBIA serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributable to a particular investment company in the complex (e.g., the Trust) or series thereof are allocated among the investment companies in the complex or series thereof on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the investment companies in the complex or series thereof can otherwise be made fairly.
9
Investments in foreign securities: Investing in foreign securities may involve sovereign and other risks, in addition to the credit and market risks normally associated with domestic securities. These additional risks include the possibility of adverse political and economic developments (including political instability, nationalization, expropriation, or confiscatory taxation) and the potentially adverse effects of unavailability of public information regarding issuers, less governmental supervision and regulation of financial markets, reduced liquidity of certain financial markets, and the lack of uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards or the application of standards that are different or less stringent than those applied in the United States. Foreign securities also may experience greater price volatility, higher rates of inflation, and delays in settlement.
10
Investment company securities and exchange-traded funds: The Fund may invest in shares of other registered investment companies, including exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), within the limitations prescribed by the 1940 Act, in reliance on rules adopted by the SEC, particularly Rule 12d1-4 or any other applicable exemptive relief. Rule 12d1-4 permits fund of funds arrangements, and includes (i) limits on control and voting; (ii) required evaluations and findings; (iii) required fund of funds investment agreements; and (iv) limits on complex structures. Shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear their proportionate share of any management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the management fees and expenses of the Fund.
11
When-issued/delayed delivery securities: The Fund may purchase securities with delivery or payment to occur at a later date beyond the normal settlement period. At the time the Fund enters into a commitment to purchase a security, the transaction is recorded and the value of the security is reflected in the NAV. The price of such security and the date when the security will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations. No interest accrues to the Fund until payment takes place. At the time the Fund enters into this type of transaction it is required to segregate cash or other liquid assets at least equal to the amount of the commitment. When-issued and delayed delivery transactions can have a leverage-like effect on the Fund, which can increase fluctuations in the Fund’s NAV. Certain risks may arise upon entering into when-issued or delayed delivery securities transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors. Additionally, losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities.
23

The Fund may also enter into a TBA agreement and “roll over” such agreement prior to the settlement date by selling the obligation to purchase the pools set forth in the agreement and entering into a new TBA agreement for future delivery of pools of mortgage-backed securities. TBA mortgage-backed securities may increase prepayment risks because the underlying mortgages may be less favorable than anticipated by the Fund.
12
Derivative instruments: The Fund’s use of derivatives during the year ended December 31, 2022, is described below. Please see the Schedule of Investments for the Fund’s open positions in derivatives, if any, at December 31, 2022. The disclosure requirements of ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”) distinguish between derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting and those that do not. Because investment companies value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statement of Operations, they do not qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, even though the Fund’s investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are considered non-hedge transactions for purposes of this disclosure.
Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act which became effective in August 2022, regulates the use of derivatives for certain funds registered under the 1940 Act ("Rule 18f-4"). The Funds have adopted a Rule 18f-4 Policy which provides, among other things, that unless a Fund qualifies as a "limited derivatives user" as defined in Rule 18f-4, the Fund is subject to a comprehensive derivatives risk management program, is required to comply with certain value-at-risk based leverage limits and is required to provide additional disclosure both publicly and to the SEC regarding its derivatives positions. If a Fund qualifies as a limited derivatives user, Rule 18f-4 requires the Fund to have policies and procedures to manage its aggregate derivatives risk.
Futures contracts: During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund used U.S. Treasury and Eurodollar futures to manage the duration of the Fund.
At the time the Fund enters into a futures contract, it is required to deposit with the futures commission merchant a specified amount of cash or liquid securities, known as “initial margin,” which is a percentage of the value of the futures contract being traded that is set by the exchange upon which the futures contract is traded. Each day, the futures contract is valued at the official settlement price of the board of trade or U.S. commodity exchange on which such futures contract is traded. Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin,” to and from the broker are made on a daily basis, or as needed, as the market price of the futures contract fluctuates. Daily variation margin adjustments, arising from this “mark to market,” are recorded by the Fund as unrealized gains or losses.
Although some futures by their terms call for actual delivery or acquisition of the underlying securities or currency, in most cases the contracts are closed out prior to delivery by offsetting purchases or sales of matching futures. When the contracts are closed or expire, the Fund recognizes a gain or loss. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility there may be an illiquid market, possibly at a time of rapidly declining prices, and/or a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. Futures executed on regulated futures exchanges have minimal counterparty risk to the Fund because the exchange’s clearinghouse assumes the position of the counterparty in each transaction. Thus, the Fund is exposed to risk only in connection with the clearinghouse and not in connection with the original counterparty to the transaction.
For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the futures transactions undertaken by the Fund may cause the Fund to recognize gains or losses from marking contracts to market even though its positions have not been sold or terminated, may affect the character of the gains or losses recognized as long-term or short-term, and may affect the timing of some capital gains and losses realized by the Fund. Also, the Fund’s losses on transactions involving futures contracts may be deferred rather than being taken into account currently in calculating the Fund’s taxable income.

Securities lending: The Fund, using State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) as its lending agent, may loan securities to qualified brokers and dealers in exchange for negotiated lender’s fees. These fees, if any, would be disclosed within the Statement of Operations under the caption “Income from securities loaned-net” and are net of expenses retained by State Street as compensation for its services as lending agent.
The initial collateral received by the Fund at the beginning of each transaction shall have a value equal to at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities (105% in the case of international securities). Collateral in the form of cash and/or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies, equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities, is maintained at all times. Thereafter, the value of the collateral is monitored on a daily basis, and collateral is moved daily between a counterparty and the Fund until the close of the transaction. Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of State Street and is included on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The total value of securities received as collateral for securities on loan is included in a footnote following the Schedule of Investments, but is not included within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities because the receiving Fund does not have the right to sell or repledge the securities received as collateral. The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities. Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the securities loaned and any interest earned or dividends paid or owed on those securities during the term of the loan would accrue to the Fund.
As of December 31, 2022, the Fund did not have any outstanding loans of securities.
14
Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Trust’s organizational documents provide that its officers ("Officers") and trustees ("Trustees") are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the
25

performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against the Trust.
Note B—Investment Management Fees, Administration Fees, Distribution Arrangements, and Other Transactions with Affiliates:
The Fund retains NBIA as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, the Fund pays NBIA an investment management fee at an annual rate of 0.17% of the first $2 billion of the Fund’s average daily net assets and 0.15% of average daily net assets in excess of $2 billion. Accordingly, for the year ended December 31, 2022, the investment management fee pursuant to the Management Agreement was equivalent to an annual effective rate of 0.17% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
The Fund retains NBIA as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. The Fund pays NBIA an administration fee at the annual rate of 0.40% of its average daily net assets. Additionally, NBIA retains State Street as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. NBIA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.
NBIA has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Fund so that the total annual operating expenses do not exceed the expense limitation as detailed in the following table. This undertaking excludes interest, taxes, transaction costs, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, extraordinary expenses, and dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, if any (commitment fees relating to borrowings are treated as interest for purposes of this exclusion) (“annual operating expenses”); consequently, net expenses may exceed the contractual expense limitation. The Fund has agreed that it will repay NBIA for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed provided that repayment does not cause the annual operating expenses to exceed its contractual expense limitation in place at the time the fees and expenses were waived or reimbursed, or the expense limitation in place at the time the Fund repays NBIA, whichever is lower. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the year in which NBIA incurred the expense.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, there was no repayment to NBIA under these agreements.
At December 31, 2022, the Fund had no contingent liabilities to NBIA under the agreement.

The Board adopted a non-fee distribution plan for the Fund’s Class I shares.

Note E—Line of Credit:
At December 31, 2022, the Fund was a participant in a syndicated committed, unsecured $700,000,000 line of credit (the "Credit Facility"), to be used only for temporary or emergency purposes. Series of other investment companies managed by NBIA also participate in this line of credit on substantially the same terms. Interest is charged on borrowings under this Credit Facility at the highest of (a) a federal funds effective rate plus 1.00% per annum, (b) a daily simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 1.10% per annum, and (c) an overnight bank funding rate plus 1.00% per annum; provided that should the Administrative Agent of the Credit Facility determine that the daily simple SOFR rate is unavailable, then the interest rate option described in (b) shall be replaced with a benchmark replacement determined to be applicable by such Administrative Agent. The Credit Facility has an annual commitment fee of 0.15% per annum of the available line of credit, which is paid quarterly. The Fund has agreed to pay its pro rata share of the annual commitment fee, based on the ratio of its individual net assets to the net assets of all participants at the time the fee is due, and interest charged on any borrowing made by the Fund and other costs incurred by the Fund. Because several mutual funds participate in the Credit Facility, there is no assurance that the Fund will have access to all or any part of the $700,000,000 at any particular time. There were no loans outstanding under the Credit Facility at December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not utilize the Credit Facility.
Note F—Recent Accounting Pronouncement:
In December 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2022-06 (“ASU 2022-06”), “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”, which is an update to Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-01 (“ASU 2021-01”), “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)” and defers the sunset date for applying the reference rate reform relief in Topic 848. ASU 2021-01 is an update of ASU 2020-04, which is in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and particularly the risk of cessation of LIBOR, regulators have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 is elective and applies to all entities,
27

subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU 2021-01 update clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The amendments in this update are effective immediately through December 31, 2024, for all entities. Management is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of the additional requirements and its impact on the Fund's financial statements.
Note G—Other Matters:
Coronavirus: The outbreak of the novel coronavirus in many countries has, among other things, disrupted global travel and supply chains, and adversely impacted global commercial activity, the transportation industry and commodity prices in the energy sector. The impact of this virus has negatively affected and may continue to affect the economies of many nations, individual companies and the global securities and commodities markets, including liquidity and volatility. The development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to its ultimate impact, which may have a continued adverse effect on global economic and market conditions. Such conditions (which may be across industries, sectors or geographies) have impacted and may continue to impact certain issuers of the securities held by the Fund and in turn, may impact the financial performance of the Fund.
Russia's Invasion of Ukraine: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and corresponding events in late February 2022, have had, and could continue to have, severe adverse effects on regional and global economic markets for securities and commodities. Following Russia’s actions, various governments, including the United States, have issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia. The current events have had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on global markets performance and liquidity, thereby negatively affecting the value of the Fund's investments beyond any direct exposure to Russian or Ukrainian issuers. The duration of ongoing hostilities and the vast array of sanctions and related events cannot be predicted. Those events present material uncertainty and risk with respect to markets globally and the performance of the Fund and its investments or operations could be negatively impacted.

a
Calculated based on the average number of shares outstanding during each fiscal period.
b
Total return based on per share NAV reflects the effects of changes in NAV on the performance of the Fund
during each fiscal period. Returns assume income dividends and other distributions, if any, were reinvested.
Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current returns may be lower or
higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns and principal will fluctuate and shares, when
redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost. The total return information shown does not
reflect charges and other expenses that apply to the separate accounts or the related insurance policies or
other qualified pension or retirement plans, and the inclusion of these charges and other expenses would
reduce the total return for all fiscal periods shown.
c
The class action proceeds received in 2021 and 2019 had no impact on the Fund's total return for the years

based on per share NAV for the year ended December 31, 2018, would have been:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Short Duration Bond Portfolio and Board of Trustees of the Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust
Opinion on the Financial Statements
 We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Short Duration Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the “Trust”)), including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Portfolio (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management) at December 31, 2022, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolio’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and others. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more Neuberger Berman investment companies since 1954.

Board Consideration of the Management Agreement
On an annual basis, the Board of Trustees (the "Board" or "Trustees") of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust"), including the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust or of Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("Management") (including its affiliates), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), ("Independent Fund Trustees"), considers whether to continue the management agreement with Management (the "Agreement") with respect to Short Duration Bond Portfolio (the "Fund").  Throughout the process, the Independent Fund Trustees are advised by counsel that is experienced in 1940 Act matters and that is independent of Management ("Independent Counsel").  At a meeting held on September 29, 2022, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement for the Fund.
In evaluating the Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, reviewed extensive materials provided by Management in response to questions submitted by the Independent Fund Trustees and Independent Counsel, and met with senior representatives of Management regarding its personnel, operations, and profitability as they relate to the Fund. The annual contract review extends over at least two regular meetings of the Board to ensure that Management has time to respond to any questions the Independent Fund Trustees may have on their initial review of the materials and that the Independent Fund Trustees have time to consider those responses.  Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of Management.
In connection with its deliberations, the Board also considered the broad range of information relevant to the annual contract review that is provided to the Board (including its various standing committees) at meetings throughout the year, including reports on investment performance, portfolio risk, liquidity management, and other portfolio information for the Fund, including the use of derivatives, as well as periodic reports on, among other matters, pricing and valuation; quality and cost of portfolio trade execution; compliance; and shareholder and other services provided by Management and its affiliates.  The Contract Review Committee, which is comprised solely of Independent Fund Trustees, was established by the Board to assist in its evaluation and analysis of materials for the annual contract review.  The Board has also established other committees that focus throughout the year on specific areas relevant to the annual contract review, such as Fund performance or compliance matters, and that are charged with specific responsibilities regarding the annual contract review.  Those committees provide reports to the full Board, including the members of the Contract Review Committee, which consider that information as part of the annual contract review process.  The Contract Review Committee annually considers and updates the questions it asks of Management in light of legal advice furnished to it by Independent Counsel; its own business judgment; and developments in the industry, in the markets, in mutual fund regulation and litigation, and in Management’s business model.
The Independent Fund Trustees received from Independent Counsel a memorandum discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreement.  During the course of the year and during their deliberations regarding the annual contract review, the Contract Review Committee and the Independent Fund Trustees met with Independent Counsel separately from representatives of Management.
43

Provided below is a description of the Board’s contract approval process and material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding renewal of the Agreement and the compensation to be paid thereunder.  In connection with its approval of the continuation of the Agreement, the Board evaluated the terms of the Agreement, the overall fairness of the Agreement to the Fund, and whether the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.  The Board’s determination to approve the continuation of the Agreement was based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Board throughout the year and specifically in connection with the annual contract review.  The Board considered the Fund’s investment management agreement separately from those of other funds of the Trust.
This description is not intended to include all of the factors considered by the Board.  The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors.  The Board focused on the costs and benefits of the Agreement to the Fund and, through the Fund, its shareholders.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services
With respect to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided, the Board considered the investment philosophy and decision-making processes of, and the qualifications, experience, and capabilities of, and the resources available to, the portfolio management personnel of Management who perform services for the Fund. The Board noted that Management also provides certain administrative services, including fund accounting and compliance services.  The Board also considered Management’s policies and practices regarding trade execution, transaction costs, and allocation of portfolio transactions and reviewed the quality of the execution services that Management had provided. Moreover, the Board considered Management’s approach to potential conflicts of interest both generally and between the Fund’s investments and those of other funds or accounts managed by Management.  The Board also noted that Management had increased its capabilities with respect to environmental, social, and corporate governance matters and considered how that might impact the Fund.  The Board noted the additional responsibilities of Management in administering the liquidity risk management program.
The Board recognized the extensive range of services that Management provides to the Fund beyond the investment management services.  The Board noted that Management is also responsible for monitoring compliance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies, and restrictions, as well as compliance with applicable law, including implementing rulemaking initiatives of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Board considered that Management assumes significant ongoing entrepreneurial and business risks as the investment adviser and sponsor for the Fund, for which it is entitled to reasonable compensation.  The Trustees also considered that Management’s responsibilities include continual management of investment, operational, cybersecurity, enterprise, legal, regulatory, and compliance risks as they relate to the Fund, and the Board considers on a regular basis information regarding Management’s processes for monitoring and managing risk.  In addition, the Board also noted that when Management launches a new fund or share class, it assumes entrepreneurial risk with respect to that fund or share class, and that some funds and share classes have been liquidated without ever having been profitable to Management.
The Board also reviewed and evaluated Management’s activities under its contractual obligation to oversee the Fund’s various outside service providers, including its renegotiation of certain service providers’ fees and its evaluation of service providers’ infrastructure, cybersecurity programs, compliance programs, and business continuity programs, among other matters.  The Board also considered Management’s ongoing development of its own infrastructure and information technology to support the Fund through, among other things, cybersecurity, business continuity planning, and risk management.  The Board noted Management’s largely seamless implementation of its business continuity plan in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its success in continuously providing services to the Fund notwithstanding the disruptions caused by the pandemic.  In addition, the Board noted the positive compliance history of Management, as no significant compliance problems were
44

reported to the Board with respect to Management.  The Board also considered the general structure of the portfolio managers’ compensation and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the Fund. The Board also considered the ability of Management to attract and retain qualified personnel to service the Fund.
As in past years, the Board also considered the manner in which Management addressed various matters that arose during the year, some of them a result of developments in the broader fund industry or the regulations governing it.  In addition, the Board considered actions taken by Management in response to market conditions and considered the overall performance of Management in this context.
Fund Performance
The Board requested a report from an outside consulting firm that specializes in the analysis of fund industry data that compared the Fund’s performance, along with its fees and other expenses, to a group of industry peers (“Expense Group”) and to a broader universe of funds pursuing generally similar strategies with the same investment classification and/or objective (“Performance Universe”).  The Board considered the outside consulting group’s statements regarding the composition of each of the Expense Group and Performance Universe and whether they were inclusive of non-proprietary funds, such as the Fund, operated for insurance company investors by independent investment managers or both proprietary funds that are operated by insurance companies or their affiliates, and non-proprietary funds.  The Board considered the Fund’s performance and fees in light of the limitations inherent in the methodology for constructing such comparative groups and determining which investment companies should be included in the comparative groups, noting differences as compared to certain fund industry ranking and rating systems.  The Board also considered the impact and inherent limitation on the comparisons due to the small number of funds included in the Fund’s Expense Group and Performance Universe.
With respect to investment performance, the Board considered information regarding the Fund’s short-, intermediate- and long-term performance, net of the Fund’s fees and expenses, on an absolute basis, relative to a benchmark index that does not deduct the fees or expenses of investing, and compared to the performance of the Expense Group and Performance Universe, each constructed by the consulting firm.  The Board also reviewed performance in relation to certain measures of the degree of investment risk undertaken by the portfolio managers.
The Performance Universe referenced in this section was identified by the consulting firm, as discussed above.  For any period of underperformance, the Board considered the magnitude and duration of that underperformance relative to the Performance Universe, and/or the benchmark (e.g., the amount by which a Fund underperformed, including, for example, whether the Fund slightly underperformed or significantly underperformed its benchmark).  With respect to performance quintile rankings for the Fund compared to its Performance Universe, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance.
The Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended December 31, 2021: (1) as compared to its benchmark, the Fund’s performance was higher for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods; and (2) as compared to its Performance Universe, the Fund’s performance was in the first quintile for the 1-year period, the second quintile for the 3- and 10-year periods, and the third quintile for the 5-year period. The Board also took into account that in July 2022, Management added a new portfolio manager, and in 2020, Management made changes to the Fund’s investment strategy.
The Board recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. The Board further acknowledged that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance, and that a single investment theme could disproportionately affect performance.  The
45

Board also considered Management’s responsiveness to the Fund’s relative performance.  In this regard, the Board noted that performance, especially short-term performance, is only one of the factors that it deems relevant to its consideration of the Agreement and that, after considering all relevant factors, it determined to approve the continuation of the Agreement.
Fee Rates, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits
With respect to the overall fairness of the Agreement, the Board considered the fee structure for the Fund under the Agreement as compared to the Expense Group provided by the consulting firm, as discussed above.  The Board reviewed a comparison of the Fund’s management fee to its Expense Group.  The Board noted that the comparative management fee analysis includes, in the Fund’s management fee, the separate administrative fees paid to Management.  However, the Board noted that some funds in the Expense Group pay directly from fund assets for certain services that Management covers out of the administration fees for the Fund.  Accordingly, the Board also considered the Fund’s total expense ratio as compared with its Expense Group as a way of taking account of these differences.
The Board compared the Fund’s contractual and actual management fees to the median of the contractual and actual management fees, respectively, of the Fund’s Expense Group. (The actual management fees are the contractual management fees reduced by any fee waivers or other adjustments.)  The Board also compared the Fund’s total expenses to the median of the total expenses of the Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that the Fund’s actual management fee and total expenses were higher than the Expense Group median, and considered whether specific portfolio management, administration or oversight needs contributed to the Fund’s actual management fee and total expenses. With respect to the quintile rankings for fees and total expenses (net of waivers or other adjustments, if any) for the Fund compared to its Expense Group, the first quintile represents the lowest (best) fees and/or total expenses and the fifth quintile represents the highest fees and/or total expenses.
The Board considered that, as compared to its Expense Group, the Fund’s contractual management fee ranked fourth out of five funds and the actual management fee and total expenses each ranked fifth out of five funds.  The Board also took into account that in 2020 Management reduced the Fund’s expense limitation. In addition to considering the above-referenced factors, the Board took note of its ongoing dialogue with Management regarding the dynamics of the insurance/annuity marketplace.  The Board considered, among other matters, related tax restrictions and the unique challenges facing that market generally, which assisted the Board in understanding the context for the Fund’s expense ratio and performance.
In concluding that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund, the Board reviewed specific data as to Management’s estimated loss on the Fund for a recent period on a pre-tax basis without regard to distribution expenses. (The Board also reviewed data on Management’s estimated loss on the Fund after distribution/servicing expenses and taxes were factored in, as indicators of the health of the business and the extent to which Management is directing its profits into the growth of the business.)  The Board considered the cost allocation methodology that Management used in developing its estimated profitability figures.  In recent years, the Board engaged an independent forensic accountant to review the profitability methodology utilized by Management when preparing this information and discussed with the consultant its conclusion that Management’s process for calculating and reporting its estimated loss was not unreasonable.
Recognizing that there is no uniform methodology regarding the allocation of firm-wide or complex-wide expenses within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose and that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to different profit and loss results, the Board, in the past, requested from Management examples of profitability calculated by different methods and noted that the estimated profitability levels were still reasonable when calculated by these other methods.  The Board further noted Management’s representation that its estimate of profitability is derived using methodology that is
46

consistent with the methodology used to assess and/or report measures of profitability elsewhere at the firm.  In addition, the Board recognized that Management’s calculations regarding its costs may not reflect all risks, including regulatory, legal, operational, cybersecurity, reputational, and, where appropriate, entrepreneurial risks, associated with offering and managing a mutual fund in the current regulatory and market environment.  The Board also considered any fall-out (i.e., indirect) benefits likely to accrue to Management or its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund.  The Board noted that Management incurred a loss on its management of the Fund during the review period even before consideration of distribution expenses and taxes.
Information Regarding Services to Other Clients
The Board also considered other funds and separate accounts that were advised or sub-advised by Management or its affiliates with investment objectives, policies and strategies that were similar to those of the Fund, and compared the fees charged to the Fund to the fees charged to such comparable funds and separate accounts.  The Board considered the appropriateness and reasonableness of any differences between the fees charged to a Fund and such comparable funds and/or separate accounts, and determined that differences in fees and fee structures were consistent with the differences in the management and other services provided. The Board explored with Management its assertion that although, generally, the rates of fees paid by such accounts, except other Neuberger Berman mutual funds, were lower than the fee rates paid by the corresponding Fund, the differences reflected Management’s greater level of responsibilities and significantly broader scope of services to the Fund, the more extensive regulatory obligations and risks associated with managing the Fund, and other financial considerations with respect to creation and sponsorship of the Fund.
Economies of Scale
The Board also evaluated apparent or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services Management provides to the Fund. The Board considered whether the Fund’s fee structure provides for a reduction of payments resulting from the use of breakpoints, the size of any breakpoints in the Fund’s advisory fees, and whether any such breakpoints are set at appropriate asset levels.  The Board also compared the breakpoint structure to that of the Expense Group. In addition, the Board considered the expense limitation and/or fee waiver arrangements that reduces Fund expenses at all asset levels which can have an effect similar to breakpoints in sharing economies of scale with shareholders and provide protection from an increase in expenses if the Fund’s assets decline.  The Board also considered that Management has provided, at no added cost to the Fund, certain additional services, including but not limited to, services required by new regulations or regulatory interpretations, services impelled by changes in the securities markets or the business landscape, and/or services requested by the Board.  The Board considered that this is a way of sharing economies of scale with the Fund and its shareholders.
Conclusions
In approving the continuation of the Agreement, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Agreement are fair and reasonable to the Fund and that approval of the continuation of the Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.  In reaching this determination, the Board considered that Management could be expected to continue to provide a high level of service to the Fund; that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory over time; that the Board retained confidence in Management’s capabilities to manage the Fund; that the Fund’s fee structure appeared to the Board to be reasonable given the nature, extent, and quality of services provided; and that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund.  The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of materials prepared in connection with the approval or continuance of the Agreement in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year, in addition to material prepared specifically for the most recent annual review of the Agreement.

Sustainable Equity Portfolio Commentary (Unaudited)
The Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Sustainable Equity Portfolio (the Fund) Class I generated a total return of -18.45% for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the reporting period), trailing the -18.11% total return of its benchmark, the S&P 500® Index (the Index). (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)
In 2022, rising interest rates, extreme inflationary pressures, and global recessionary fears continued to weigh on equity markets, which suffered some of their worst performance in 40+ years, even with a late-year rally.
As inflation hit multi-year highs, coordinated monetary policy action from global central banks worked to thread the needle between taming inflation and balancing recession risks. The U.S. Federal Reserve Board hiked interest rates seven times during the reporting period, for a total increase of 4.25%.
Within this backdrop, growth stocks underperformed value across the market-cap spectrum, with the weakest earnings per share growth, greatest multiple contraction, and sharpest price declines.
We believe market and economic cycles are normal and necessary. This year, some unsustainable excesses were wrung out of a market that had been supported by years of global central banks’ loose, easy monetary policy. For example, facing a surprise tax bill, the special purpose acquisition companies (SPAC) boom dwindled; crypto mania ended with a series of bankruptcies; and the IPO market faced one of its hardest years since 2009.
Our performance within the difficult environment validates our commitment to investing in what we believe to be high quality companies. We look beyond short-term and technical metrics such as earnings and price volatility and seek to take a holistic ownership approach to defining quality. Our analysis emphasizes visible cash flows, deep economic moats, healthy balance sheets with pricing power, robust stakeholder relationships, and thoughtful and disciplined consideration for issues such as diversity, management tenure, and operational efficiency.
Health Care, Financials and Information Technology holdings contributed most to our relative performance for the year, and insurers Cigna and Progressive were top contributors. Both are relatively large portfolio holdings that benefited from strong earnings and business tailwinds.
Our underweight versus the Index to the strong Energy sector was our most significant headwind, followed by stock selection within Industrials and Utilities. Alphabet and Zebra Technologies were key detractors. Alphabet, parent of Google, was the biggest detractor as its core ad business fell short of expectations. Zebra, an enterprise mobile computing company, stumbled as supply chain disruptions within semiconductors prevented the company from meeting strong demand. We continue to own both names.
During the reporting period, given the market pullback, we continued to be opportunistic. We sold our positions in Accenture, Advance Auto Parts, ANSYS, Aptiv, Comcast, CoStar Group, Medtronic, Stanley Black & Decker, Starbucks, Unilever and Discovery, given unfavorable outlooks for these cyclical businesses within the current economic environment. We used proceeds to opportunistically add to businesses we believe have distinctive, high-quality management teams, including new positions in Amazon, Apple, Bank of America, Berkshire Hathaway, Costco and Coterra Energy.
The fourth quarter’s rally was powered by the belief that inflation may have peaked. However, looking ahead, we believe the economic backdrop remains fairly uncertain, existing in an uncomfortable balance between inflation, interest rates and economic growth.
Given this situation, we anticipate ongoing market volatility, and the possibility of downward earnings growth revisions and lower earnings. We believe this type of market will underscore the value of our disciplined, long-term approach, and fundamentally driven bottom-up stock selection. As always, we will work to use volatility as an opportunity to strengthen the portfolio, buying what we view as high quality companies on temporary price drops, and selling into strength.

For current performance data, including current to the most recent month-end, please visit http://www.nb.com/amtportfolios/performance.
The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. The results do not reflect fees and expenses of the variable annuity and variable life insurance policies or the qualified pension and retirement plans whose proceeds are invested in the Fund. 
The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. Repayment by a class (of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by NBIA) will decrease the class’s returns. Please see Note B in the Notes to Financial Statements for specific information regarding expense reimbursement and/or fee waiver arrangements.
As stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus, the total annual operating expense ratios for fiscal year 2021 were 0.89% and 1.16% for Class I and Class S shares, respectively (before expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, if any). The expense ratios for the annual period ended December 31, 2022 can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

COMPARISON OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT
This graph shows the change in value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the past 10 fiscal years, or since the Fund’s inception, if it has not operated for 10 years. The graph is based on Class I shares only; the performance of the Fund’s share classes will differ primarily due to different class expenses (see Performance Highlights chart above). The result is compared with benchmarks, which include a broad-based market index and may include a more narrowly based index. Market indices have not been reduced to reflect any of the fees and costs of investing. The results shown in the graph reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. The results do not reflect fees and expenses of the variable annuity and variable life insurance policies or the qualified pension and retirement plans whose proceeds are invested in the Fund. Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results.

Information About Your Fund’s Expenses (Unaudited)
As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs such as fees and expenses that are, or may be, imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (if applicable), and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in U.S. dollars) of investing in the Fund and compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
This table is designed to provide information regarding costs related to your investments. The following examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the six month period ended December 31, 2022 and held for the entire period. The table illustrates the Fund’s costs in two ways:
Actual Expenses and
Performance:
The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual
expenses in dollars, based on the Fund’s actual performance during the period indicated.
You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to
estimate the expenses 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 section of the table under the heading entitled
"Expenses Paid During the Period" to estimate the expenses you paid over the period.
Hypothetical Example for
Comparison Purposes:
The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values
and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate
of return at 5% per year before expenses. This return 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 this Fund versus other funds. To do so,
compare the expenses shown in this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical
examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not include any transaction costs, such as fees and expenses that are, or may be imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan. Therefore, the information under the heading "Hypothetical (5% annual 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 transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements Sustainable Equity Portfolio
Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
1
General: Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust") is a Delaware statutory trust
organized pursuant to an Amended and Restated Trust Instrument dated March 27, 2014. The Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the "1940 Act"), and its shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Sustainable Equity Portfolio (the "Fund") is a separate operating series of the Trust and is diversified. The Fund currently offers Class I and Class S shares. The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the "Board") may establish additional series or classes of shares without the approval of shareholders.
A balance indicated with a "—", reflects either a zero balance or a balance that rounds to less than 1.
The assets of the Fund belong only to the Fund, and the liabilities of the Fund are borne solely by the Fund and no other series of the Trust.
The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 "Financial Services—Investment Companies."
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires Management to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Shares of the Fund are not available to the general public and may be purchased only by life insurance companies to serve as an investment vehicle for premiums paid under their variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts and to certain qualified pension and other retirement plans.
2
Portfolio valuation: In accordance with ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurement" ("ASC 820"), all investments held by the Fund are carried at the value that Management believes the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment under current market conditions. Various inputs, including the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in the market, are considered in valuing the Fund's investments, some of which are discussed below. At times, Management may need to apply significant judgment to value investments in accordance with ASC 820.
ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to create a classification of value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 – other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, amortized cost, etc.)
Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodology used for valuing an investment are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The value of the Fund’s investments in equity securities, for which market quotations are available, is generally determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on
the latest sale price quoted on a principal exchange or market for that security (Level 1 inputs). Securities traded primarily on the NASDAQ Stock Market are normally valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. The NOCP is the most recently reported price as of 4:00:02 p.m., Eastern Time, unless that price is outside the range of the "inside" bid and asked prices (i.e., the bid and asked prices that dealers quote to each other when trading for their own accounts); in that
14

case, NASDAQ will adjust the price to equal the inside bid or asked price, whichever is closer. Because of delays in reporting trades, the NOCP may not be based on the price of the last trade to occur before the market closes. If there is no sale of a security on a particular day, the independent pricing services may value the security based on market quotations.
Management has developed a process to periodically review information provided by independent pricing services for all types of securities.
Certificates of deposit are valued at amortized cost (Level 2 inputs).
Investments in non-exchange traded investment companies are valued using the respective fund’s daily calculated net asset value ("NAV") per share (Level 2 inputs), when available.
If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, or if Management has reason to believe that the valuation received does not represent the amount the Fund might reasonably expect to receive on a current sale in an orderly transaction, Management seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers (generally considered Level 2 or Level 3 inputs depending on the number of quotes available). If such quotations are not available, the security is valued using methods Management has approved in the good-faith belief that the resulting valuation will reflect the fair value of the security. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board designated Management as the Fund's valuation designee. As the Fund's valuation designee, Management is responsible for determining fair value in good faith for any and all Fund investments. Inputs and assumptions considered in determining the fair value of a security based on Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to, the type of the security; the initial cost of the security; the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; quotations or evaluated prices from broker-dealers and/or pricing services; information obtained from the issuer and/or analysts; an analysis of the company’s or issuer’s financial statements; an evaluation of the inputs that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The value of the Fund’s investments in foreign securities is generally determined using the same valuation methods and inputs as other Fund investments, as discussed above. Foreign security prices expressed in local currency values are normally translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time on days the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open for business. Management has approved the use of ICE Data Services ("ICE") to assist in determining the fair value of foreign equity securities when changes in the value of a certain index suggest that the closing prices on the foreign exchanges may no longer represent the amount that the Fund could expect to receive for those securities or on days when foreign markets are closed and U.S. markets are open. In each of these events, ICE will provide adjusted prices for certain foreign equity securities using a statistical analysis of historical correlations of multiple factors (Level 2 inputs). In the absence of precise information about the market values of these foreign securities as of the time as of which the Fund’s share price is calculated, Management has determined on the basis of available data that prices adjusted or evaluated in this way are likely to be closer to the prices the Fund could realize on a current sale than are the prices of those securities established at the close of the foreign markets in which the securities primarily trade.
Fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security is next quoted or next trades.
3
Foreign currency translations: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are normally translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on days the NYSE is open for business, to determine the value of investments, other assets and liabilities. Purchase and sale prices of securities, and income and expenses, are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Net unrealized foreign currency gain/(loss), if any, arises from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, as a result of changes in exchange rates and is stated separately in the Statement of Operations.
4
Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign dividends, as soon as the Fund becomes aware of the dividends. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
15

income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, including accretion of discount (adjusted for original issue discount, where applicable), if any, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions and foreign currency transactions, if any, are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statement of Operations.
5
Income tax information: The Fund is treated as a separate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company ("RIC") by complying with the requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to its shareholders. To the extent the Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to shareholders, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.
ASC 740 "Income Taxes" sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as an income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not yet expired. As of December 31, 2022, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax positions.
For federal income tax purposes, the estimated cost of investments held at December 31, 2022 was $435,348,672. The estimated gross unrealized appreciation was $214,559,005 and estimated gross unrealized depreciation was $18,417,002 resulting in net unrealized appreciation in value of investments of $196,142,003 based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund. The Fund may also utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of their shares as a part of the dividends-paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Any permanent differences resulting from different book and tax treatment are reclassified at year-end and have no impact on net income, NAV or NAV per share of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund recorded the following permanent reclassification related to a miscellaneous adjustment:

6
Distributions to shareholders: The Fund may earn income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed once a year (usually in October) and are recorded on the ex-date.
7
Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds within the complex of related investment companies. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses of the Trust that are not directly attributable to a particular series of the Trust (e.g., the Fund) are allocated among the series of the Trust, on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the series can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which NBIA serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributable to a particular investment company in the complex (e.g., the Trust) or series thereof are allocated among the investment companies in the complex or series thereof on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the investment companies in the complex or series thereof can otherwise be made fairly. The Fund’s expenses (other than those specific to each class) are allocated proportionally each day among its classes based upon the relative net assets of each class.
8
Investments in foreign securities: Investing in foreign securities may involve sovereign and other risks, in addition to the credit and market risks normally associated with domestic securities. These additional risks include the possibility of adverse political and economic developments (including political instability, nationalization, expropriation, or confiscatory taxation) and the potentially adverse effects of unavailability of public information regarding issuers, less governmental supervision and regulation of financial markets, reduced liquidity of certain financial markets, and the lack of uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards or the application of standards that are different or less stringent than those applied in the United States. Foreign securities also may experience greater price volatility, higher rates of inflation, and delays in settlement.
9
Investment company securities and exchange-traded funds: The Fund may invest in shares of other registered investment companies, including exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), within the limitations prescribed by the 1940 Act, in reliance on rules adopted by the SEC, particularly Rule 12d1-4 or any other applicable exemptive relief. Rule 12d1-4 permits fund of funds arrangements, and includes (i) limits on control and voting; (ii) required evaluations and findings; (iii) required fund of funds investment agreements; and (iv) limits on complex structures. Shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear their proportionate share of any management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the management fees and expenses of the Fund.
10
Foreign taxes: Foreign taxes withheld, if any, represent amounts withheld by foreign tax authorities, net of refunds recoverable.
11
Securities lending: The Fund, using State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") as its lending agent, may loan securities to qualified brokers and dealers in exchange for negotiated lender’s fees. These fees, if any, would be disclosed within the Statement of Operations under the caption "Income from securities loaned-net" and are net of expenses retained by State Street as compensation for its services as lending agent.
The initial collateral received by the Fund at the beginning of each transaction shall have a value equal to at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities (105% in the case of international securities). Collateral in the form of cash and/or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies, equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities, is maintained at all times. Thereafter, the value of the collateral is monitored on a daily basis, and collateral is moved daily between a counterparty and the Fund until the close of the transaction. Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of State Street and is included on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The total value of securities received as collateral for securities on loan is included in a footnote following the Schedule of Investments, but is not included within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities because the receiving Fund does not have the right to sell or repledge the securities received as collateral. The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities. Any
17

increase or decrease in the fair value of the securities loaned and any interest earned or dividends paid or owed on those securities during the term of the loan would accrue to the Fund.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not participate in securities lending.
12
Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Trust’s organizational documents provide that its officers ("Officers") and trustees ("Trustees") are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against the Trust.
13
Other: All net investment income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Fund are allocated, on the basis of relative net assets, pro rata among its respective classes.
Note B—Investment Management Fees, Administration Fees, Distribution Arrangements, and Other Transactions with Affiliates:
The Fund retains NBIA as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, the Fund pays NBIA an investment management fee at an annual rate of 0.55% of the first $250 million of the Fund’s average daily net assets, 0.525% of the next $250 million, 0.50% of the next $250 million, 0.475% of the next $250 million, 0.45% of the next $500 million, 0.425% of the next $2.5 billion, and 0.40% of average daily net assets in excess of $4 billion. Accordingly, for the year ended December 31, 2022, the investment management fee pursuant to the Management Agreement was equivalent to an annual effective rate of 0.53% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
The Fund retains NBIA as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. Each class pays NBIA an administration fee at the annual rate of 0.30% of its average daily net assets. Additionally, NBIA retains State Street as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. NBIA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.
NBIA has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Fund’s Class I and Class S shares so that the total annual operating expenses of those classes do not exceed the expense limitations as detailed in the following table. These undertakings exclude interest, taxes, transaction costs, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, extraordinary expenses, and dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, if any (commitment fees relating to borrowings are treated as interest for purposes of this exclusion) ("annual operating expenses"); consequently, net expenses may exceed the contractual expense limitations. The Fund has agreed that each of its classes will repay NBIA for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for that class provided that repayment does not cause that class’s annual operating expenses to exceed its contractual expense limitation in place at the time the fees and expenses were waived or reimbursed, or the expense limitation in place at the time the Fund repays NBIA, whichever is lower. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the year in which NBIA incurred the expense.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, there was no repayment to NBIA under these agreements.
At December 31, 2022, the Fund's contingent liabilities to NBIA under the agreements were as follows:

Neuberger Berman BD LLC (the "Distributor") is the Fund’s "principal underwriter" within the meaning of the 1940 Act. It acts as agent in arranging for the sale of the Fund’s Class I shares without sales commission or other compensation and bears all advertising and promotion expenses incurred in the sale of those shares. The Board adopted a non-fee distribution plan for the Fund’s Class I shares.
The Board has adopted a distribution and shareholder services plan (the "Plan") for Class S shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plan provides that, as compensation for administrative and other services related to the sale and distribution of Class S shares, and ongoing services provided to investors in the class, the Distributor receives from Class S a fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of Class S’s average daily net assets. The Distributor may pay a portion of the proceeds from the 12b-1 fee to institutions that provide such services, including insurance companies or their affiliates and qualified plan administrators ("intermediaries") for services they provide respecting the Fund to current and prospective variable contract owners and qualified plan participants that invest in the Fund through the intermediaries. Those institutions may use the payments for, among other purposes, compensating employees engaged in sales and/or shareholder servicing. The amount of fees paid by the class during any year may be more or less than the cost of distribution and other services provided to the class. FINRA rules limit the amount of annual distribution fees that may be paid by a mutual fund and impose a ceiling on the cumulative distribution fees paid. The Plan complies with those rules.
Note C—Securities Transactions:
During the year ended December 31, 2022, there were purchase and sale transactions of long-term securities of $148,269,784 and $174,193,796, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, no brokerage commissions on securities transactions were paid to affiliated brokers.
Note D—Fund Share Transactions:
Share activity for the years ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, was as follows:

Note E—Line of Credit:
At December 31, 2022, the Fund was a participant in a syndicated committed, unsecured $700,000,000 line of credit (the "Credit Facility"), to be used only for temporary or emergency purposes. Series of other investment companies managed by NBIA also participate in this line of credit on substantially the same
19

terms. Interest is charged on borrowings under this Credit Facility at the highest of (a) a federal funds effective rate plus 1.00% per annum, (b) a daily simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 1.10% per annum, and (c) an overnight bank funding rate plus 1.00% per annum; provided that should the Administrative Agent of the Credit Facility determine that the daily simple SOFR rate is unavailable, then the interest rate option described in (b) shall be replaced with a benchmark replacement determined to be applicable by such Administrative Agent. The Credit Facility has an annual commitment fee of 0.15% per annum of the available line of credit, which is paid quarterly. The Fund has agreed to pay its pro rata share of the annual commitment fee, based on the ratio of its individual net assets to the net assets of all participants at the time the fee is due, and interest charged on any borrowing made by the Fund and other costs incurred by the Fund. Because several mutual funds participate in the Credit Facility, there is no assurance that the Fund will have access to all or any part of the $700,000,000 at any particular time. There were no loans outstanding under the Credit Facility at December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not utilize the Credit Facility.
Note F—Recent Accounting Pronouncement:
In June 2022, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2022-03, "Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions" ("ASU 2022-03"). ASU 2022-03 clarifies the guidance in ASC 820, related to the measurement of the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual sale restrictions, where it eliminates the ability to apply a discount to the fair value of these securities, and introduces disclosure requirements related to such equity securities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, and allows for early adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact of applying this update.
Note G—Other Matters:
Coronavirus: The outbreak of the novel coronavirus in many countries has, among other things, disrupted global travel and supply chains, and adversely impacted global commercial activity, the transportation industry and commodity prices in the energy sector. The impact of this virus has negatively affected and may continue to affect the economies of many nations, individual companies and the global securities and commodities markets, including liquidity and volatility. The development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to its ultimate impact, which may have a continued adverse effect on global economic and market conditions. Such conditions (which may be across industries, sectors or geographies) have impacted and may continue to impact certain issuers of the securities held by the Fund and in turn, may impact the financial performance of the Fund.
Russia's Invasion of Ukraine: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and corresponding events in late February 2022, have had, and could continue to have, severe adverse effects on regional and global economic markets for securities and commodities. Following Russia’s actions, various governments, including the United States, have issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia. The current events have had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on global markets performance and liquidity, thereby negatively affecting the value of the Fund's investments beyond any direct exposure to Russian or Ukrainian issuers. The duration of ongoing hostilities and the vast array of sanctions and related events cannot be predicted. Those events present material uncertainty and risk with respect to markets globally and the performance of the Fund and its investments or operations could be negatively impacted.

Notes to Financial Highlights Sustainable Equity Portfolio
a
Calculated based on the average number of shares outstanding during each fiscal period.
b
Total return based on per share NAV reflects the effects of changes in NAV on the performance of the Fund
during each fiscal period. Returns assume income dividends and other distributions, if any, were reinvested.
Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current returns may be lower or
higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns and principal will fluctuate and shares, when
redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost. Total return would have been lower if
Management had not reimbursed and/or waived certain expenses. The total return information shown does
not reflect charges and other expenses that apply to the separate accounts or the related insurance policies
or other qualified pension or retirement plans, and the inclusion of these charges and other expenses would
reduce the total return for all fiscal periods shown.
c
The class action proceeds received in 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018 had no impact on the Fund’s total returns
for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
d
Represents the annualized ratios of net expenses to average daily net assets if Management had not
reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fee. Management did
not reimburse or waive fees during the fiscal periods shown for Class I.
e
After the close of business on April 30, 2019, the Fund acquired all of the net assets of Neuberger Berman
Advisers Management Trust Guardian Portfolio and Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Large
Cap Value Portfolio in a tax-free exchange of shares pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization and Dissolution
approved by the Board. Portfolio turnover excludes purchases of $114,219,008 of securities acquired
pursuant to the reorganization, and there were no sales made following a purchase-of-assets transaction
relative to the reorganization.
f
After repayment of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by Management, as
applicable. Had the Fund not made such repayments, the annualized ratios of net expenses to average net
assets would have been:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Sustainable Equity Portfolio
and Board of Trustees of the Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust Sustainable Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio") (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust")), including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Portfolio (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust) at December 31, 2022, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolio’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and others. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more Neuberger Berman investment companies since 1954.

Board Consideration of the Management Agreement
On an annual basis, the Board of Trustees (the "Board" or "Trustees") of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust"), including the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust or of Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("Management") (including its affiliates), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), ("Independent Fund Trustees"), considers whether to continue the management agreement with Management (the "Agreement") with respect to Sustainable Equity Portfolio (the "Fund"). Throughout the process, the Independent Fund Trustees are advised by counsel that is experienced in 1940 Act matters and that is independent of Management ("Independent Counsel"). At a meeting held on September 29, 2022, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement for the Fund.
In evaluating the Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, reviewed extensive materials provided by Management in response to questions submitted by the Independent Fund Trustees and Independent Counsel, and met with senior representatives of Management regarding its personnel, operations, and profitability as they relate to the Fund. The annual contract review extends over at least two regular meetings of the Board to ensure that Management has time to respond to any questions the Independent Fund Trustees may have on their initial review of the materials and that the Independent Fund Trustees have time to consider those responses. Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of Management.
In connection with its deliberations, the Board also considered the broad range of information relevant to the annual contract review that is provided to the Board (including its various standing committees) at meetings throughout the year, including reports on investment performance, portfolio risk, liquidity management, and other portfolio information for the Fund, as well as periodic reports on, among other matters, pricing and valuation; quality and cost of portfolio trade execution; compliance; and shareholder and other services provided by Management and its affiliates. The Contract Review Committee, which is comprised solely of Independent Fund Trustees, was established by the Board to assist in its evaluation and analysis of materials for the annual contract review.  The Board has also established other committees that focus throughout the year on specific areas relevant to the annual contract review, such as Fund performance or compliance matters, and that are charged with specific responsibilities regarding the annual contract review. Those committees provide reports to the full Board, including the members of the Contract Review Committee, which consider that information as part of the annual contract review process. The Contract Review Committee annually considers and updates the questions it asks of Management in light of legal advice furnished to it by Independent Counsel; its own business judgment; and developments in the industry, in the markets, in mutual fund regulation and litigation, and in Management’s business model.
The Independent Fund Trustees received from Independent Counsel a memorandum discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreement. During the course of the year and during their deliberations regarding the annual contract review, the Contract Review Committee and the Independent Fund Trustees met with Independent Counsel separately from representatives of Management.

Provided below is a description of the Board’s contract approval process and material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding renewal of the Agreement and the compensation to be paid thereunder. In connection with its approval of the continuation of the Agreement, the Board evaluated the terms of the Agreement, the overall fairness of the Agreement to the Fund, and whether the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. The Board’s determination to approve the continuation of the Agreement was based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Board throughout the year and specifically in connection with the annual contract review. The Board considered the Fund’s investment management agreement separately from those of other funds of the Trust.
This description is not intended to include all of the factors considered by the Board. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The Board focused on the costs and benefits of the Agreement to the Fund and, through the Fund, its shareholders.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services
With respect to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided, the Board considered the investment philosophy and decision-making processes of, and the qualifications, experience, and capabilities of, and the resources available to, the portfolio management personnel of Management who perform services for the Fund. The Board noted that Management also provides certain administrative services, including fund accounting and compliance services. The Board also considered Management’s policies and practices regarding brokerage, commissions, other trading costs, and allocation of portfolio transactions and reviewed the quality of the execution services that Management had provided. The Board also reviewed Management’s use of brokers to execute Fund transactions that provide research services to Management. Moreover, the Board considered Management’s approach to potential conflicts of interest both generally and between the Fund’s investments and those of other funds or accounts managed by Management. The Board also noted that Management had increased its capabilities with respect to environmental, social, and corporate governance matters and considered how that might impact the Fund. The Board noted the additional responsibilities of Management in administering the liquidity risk management program.
The Board recognized the extensive range of services that Management provides to the Fund beyond the investment management services. The Board noted that Management is also responsible for monitoring compliance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies, and restrictions, as well as compliance with applicable law, including implementing rulemaking initiatives of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board considered that Management assumes significant ongoing entrepreneurial and business risks as the investment adviser and sponsor for the Fund, for which it is entitled to reasonable compensation. The Trustees also considered that Management’s responsibilities include continual management of investment, operational, cybersecurity, enterprise, legal, regulatory, and compliance risks as they relate to the Fund, and the Board considers on a regular basis information regarding Management’s processes for monitoring and managing risk. In addition, the Board also noted that when Management launches a new fund or share class, it assumes entrepreneurial risk with respect to that fund or share class, and that some funds and share classes have been liquidated without ever having been profitable to Management.
The Board also reviewed and evaluated Management’s activities under its contractual obligation to oversee the Fund’s various outside service providers, including its renegotiation of certain service providers’ fees and its evaluation of service providers’ infrastructure, cybersecurity programs, compliance programs, and business continuity programs, among other matters. The Board also considered Management’s ongoing development of its own infrastructure and information technology to support the Fund through, among other things, cybersecurity, business continuity planning, and risk management. The Board noted Management’s largely seamless implementation of its business continuity plan in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its success in continuously providing services to the Fund notwithstanding the disruptions caused by the pandemic. In addition,
37

the Board noted the positive compliance history of Management, as no significant compliance problems were reported to the Board with respect to Management. The Board also considered the general structure of the portfolio manager's compensation and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the Fund. The Board also considered the ability of Management to attract and retain qualified personnel to service the Fund.
As in past years, the Board also considered the manner in which Management addressed various matters that arose during the year, some of them a result of developments in the broader fund industry or the regulations governing it. In addition, the Board considered actions taken by Management in response to market conditions over the past year and considered the overall performance of Management in this context.
Fund Performance
The Board requested a report from an outside consulting firm that specializes in the analysis of fund industry data that compared the Fund’s performance, along with its fees and other expenses, to a group of industry peers ("Expense Group") and to a broader universe of funds pursuing generally similar strategies with the same investment classification and/or objective ("Performance Universe"). The Board considered the outside consulting group’s statements regarding the composition of each of the Expense Group and Performance Universe and whether they were inclusive of non-proprietary funds, such as the Fund, operated for insurance company investors by independent investment managers or both proprietary funds that are operated by insurance companies or their affiliates, and non-proprietary funds.The Board considered the Fund’s performance and fees in light of the limitations inherent in the methodology for constructing such comparative groups and determining which investment companies should be included in the comparative groups, noting differences as compared to certain fund industry ranking and rating systems. The Board also considered the impact and inherent limitation on the comparisons due to the small number of funds included in the Fund’s Expense Group and Performance Universe.
With respect to investment performance, the Board considered information regarding the Fund’s short-, intermediate- and long-term performance, net of the Fund’s fees and expenses, on an absolute basis, relative to a benchmark index that does not deduct the fees or expenses of investing, and compared to the performance of the Expense Group and Performance Universe, each constructed by the consulting firm. The Board also reviewed performance in relation to certain measures of the degree of investment risk undertaken by the portfolio managers.
The Performance Universe referenced in this section was identified by the consulting firm, as discussed above. For any period of underperformance, the Board considered the magnitude and duration of that underperformance relative to the Performance Universe, and/or the benchmark (e.g., the amount by which a Fund underperformed, including, for example, whether the Fund slightly underperformed or significantly underperformed its benchmark).
With respect to performance quintile rankings for the Fund compared to its Performance Universe, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance. For investment performance comparisons, the Board looked at the Fund’s Class I as a proxy for both of the Fund’s classes.
The Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended December 31, 2021: (1) as compared to its benchmark, the Fund’s performance was lower for the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods; and (2) as compared to its Performance Universe, the Fund’s performance was in the fourth quintile for the 1-, 5-, and 10-year periods and the third quintile for the 3-year period. The Board also took into account that as of April 2022, management of the Fund is under a new portfolio manager and changes were made to the Fund’s investment strategy. In addition, the Board met with the new portfolio manager in June 2022 to discuss the Fund’s performance.
38

Noting that the Fund underperformed over certain periods, the Board discussed with Management the Fund’s performance, potential reasons for the relative performance, and, if necessary, steps that Management had taken, or intended to take, to improve performance.  The Board recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. The Board further acknowledged that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance, and that a single investment theme could disproportionately affect performance.  The Board also considered Management’s responsiveness to the Fund’s relative performance.  In this regard, the Board noted that performance, especially short-term performance, is only one of the factors that it deems relevant to its consideration of the Agreement and that, after considering all relevant factors, it determined to approve the continuation of the Agreement notwithstanding the Fund’s relative performance.
Fee Rates, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits
With respect to the overall fairness of the Agreement, the Board considered the fee structure for the Fund under the Agreement as compared to the Expense Group provided by the consulting firm, as discussed above. The Board reviewed a comparison of the Fund’s management fee to its Expense Group. The Board noted that the comparative management fee analysis includes, in the Fund’s management fee, the separate administrative fees paid to Management. However, the Board noted that some funds in the Expense Group pay directly from fund assets for certain services that Management covers out of the administration fees for the Fund. Accordingly, the Board also considered the Fund’s total expense ratio as compared with its Expense Group as a way of taking account of these differences.
The Board compared the Fund’s contractual and actual management fees to the median of the contractual and actual management fees, respectively, of the Fund’s Expense Group. (The actual management fees are the contractual management fees reduced by any fee waivers or other adjustments.) The Board also compared the Fund’s total expenses to the median of the total expenses of the Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that the Fund’s actual management fee was higher than the Expense Group median, and considered whether specific portfolio management, administration or oversight needs contributed to the Fund’s actual management fee. With respect to the quintile rankings for fees and total expenses (net of waivers or other adjustments, if any) for the Fund compared to its Expense Group, the first quintile represents the lowest (best) fees and/or total expenses and the fifth quintile represents the highest fees and/or total expenses. For fee comparisons, the Board looked at the Fund’s Class I as a proxy for both of the Fund’s classes.
The Board considered that, as compared to its Expense Group, the Fund’s contractual management fee and the actual management fee each ranked third out of three funds and total expenses ranked second out of three funds. In addition to considering the above-referenced factors, the Board took note of its ongoing dialogue with Management regarding the dynamics of the insurance/annuity marketplace. The Board considered, among other matters, related tax restrictions and the unique challenges facing that market generally, which assisted the Board in understanding the context for the Fund’s expense ratio and performance.
In concluding that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund, the Board reviewed specific data as to Management’s estimated profit on the Fund for a recent period on a pre-tax basis without regard to distribution expenses. (The Board also reviewed data on Management’s estimated profit on the Fund after distribution/servicing expenses and taxes were factored in, as indicators of the health of the business and the extent to which Management is directing its profits into the growth of the business.) The Board considered the cost allocation methodology that Management used in developing its estimated profitability figures. In recent years, the Board engaged an independent forensic accountant to review the profitability methodology utilized by Management when preparing this information and
39

discussed with the consultant its conclusion that Management’s process for calculating and reporting its estimated profit was not unreasonable.
Recognizing that there is no uniform methodology regarding the allocation of firm-wide or complex-wide expenses within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose and that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to different profit and loss results, the Board, in the past, requested from Management examples of profitability calculated by different methods and noted that the estimated profitability levels were still reasonable when calculated by these other methods. The Board further noted Management’s representation that its estimate of profitability is derived using methodology that is consistent with the methodology used to assess and/or report measures of profitability elsewhere at the firm. In addition, the Board recognized that Management’s calculations regarding its costs may not reflect all risks, including regulatory, legal, operational, cybersecurity, reputational, and, where appropriate, entrepreneurial risks, associated with offering and managing a mutual fund in the current regulatory and market environment. The Board also considered any fall-out (i.e., indirect) benefits likely to accrue to Management or its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund, such as research it may receive from broker-dealers executing the Fund’s portfolio transactions on an agency basis. The Board recognized that Management and its affiliates should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for services they provide to the Fund and, based on its review, concluded that Management’s reported level of estimated profitability on the Fund was reasonable.
Information Regarding Services to Other Clients
The Board also considered other funds and separate accounts that were advised or sub-advised by Management or its affiliates with investment objectives, policies and strategies that were similar to those of the Fund, and compared the fees charged to the Fund to the fees charged to such comparable funds and separate accounts. The Board considered the appropriateness and reasonableness of any differences between the fees charged to a Fund and such comparable funds and/or separate accounts, and determined that differences in fees and fee structures were consistent with the differences in the management and other services provided. The Board explored with Management its assertion that although, generally, the rates of fees paid by such accounts, except other Neuberger Berman mutual funds, were lower than the fee rates paid by the corresponding Fund, the differences reflected Management’s greater level of responsibilities and significantly broader scope of services to the Fund, the more extensive regulatory obligations and risks associated with managing the Fund, and other financial considerations with respect to creation and sponsorship of the Fund.
Economies of Scale
The Board also evaluated apparent or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services Management provides to the Fund. The Board considered whether the Fund’s fee structure provides for a reduction of payments resulting from the use of breakpoints, the size of any breakpoints in the Fund’s advisory fees, and whether any such breakpoints are set at appropriate asset levels. The Board also compared the breakpoint structure to that of the Expense Group. In addition, the Board considered the expense limitation and/or fee waiver arrangements that reduces Fund expenses at all asset levels which can have an effect similar to breakpoints in sharing economies of scale with shareholders and provide protection from an increase in expenses if the Fund’s assets decline. The Board also considered that Management has provided, at no added cost to the Fund, certain additional services, including but not limited to, services required by new regulations or regulatory interpretations, services impelled by changes in the securities markets or the business landscape, and/or services requested by the Board. The Board considered that this is a way of sharing economies of scale with the Fund and its shareholders.
Conclusions
In approving the continuation of the Agreement, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Agreement are fair and reasonable to the Fund and that approval of the continuation of the Agreement is in
40

the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. In reaching this determination, the Board considered that Management could be expected to continue to provide a high level of service to the Fund; that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory over time; that the Board retained confidence in Management’s capabilities to manage the Fund; that the Fund’s fee structure appeared to the Board to be reasonable given the nature, extent, and quality of services provided; and that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund. The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of materials prepared in connection with the approval or continuance of the Agreement in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year, in addition to material prepared specifically for the most recent annual review of the Agreement.

U.S. Equity Index PutWrite Strategy Portfolio

S Class Shares

Annual Report

December 31, 2022

S0324 02/23



U.S. Equity Index PutWrite Strategy Portfolio Commentary (Unaudited)

The Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust U.S. Equity Index PutWrite Strategy Portfolio (the Fund) Class S generated a total return of –11.28% for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the reporting period), underperforming its benchmark, a blend consisting of 50% Cboe S&P 500 One-Week PutWrite Index and 50% Cboe S&P 500 PutWrite Index (collectively, the Index), which posted a total return of –10.94% for the same period.

On February 28, 2022, the Fund began comparing its performance to the Index rather than the 42.5% Cboe S&P 500 One-Week PutWrite Index/42.5% Cboe S&P 500 PutWrite Index/7.5% Cboe Russell 2000 One-Week PutWrite Index/7.5% Cboe Russell 2000 PutWrite Index, because the Index has characteristics that are more representative of the Fund's investment strategy than its previous index. From the close of February 28, 2022 (the effective date of the change) through the end of the reporting period, the Fund returned –6.08%, outperforming the Index, which returned –9.36%. For the entire reporting period, the Fund returned –11.28%, underperforming the prior index, which returned –11.25% for the same period.

Despite another 1.25% of tightening from the U.S. Federal Reserve Board of Governors over the 4th quarter, financial markets tried to salvage 2022 with broad gains. However, despite the holiday rebounds, the S&P 500® Index ended 2022 squarely in negative double-digits with a return of –18.11%. To paint the year with a single statistic, 2022 had the most +/– 8% monthly returns than any year since 1937. Equity index putwrite indexes performed as designed and finished the year well ahead of their underlying equity index exposures. Specifically, the Cboe S&P 500 PutWrite Index (PUT) declined a more modest –7.66%, having benefited from a few 'lucky' monthly option rolls. Fixed income markets suffered a similar fate as equity markets for the year with the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index realizing losses of –13.01% and –11.19%, respectively. Short-term U.S. Treasury index returns weathered the inflation storm with the ICE BofA 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index posting an attractive 1.46% for the year with 0.84% accruing in the 4th quarter. The slightly longer duration ICE BofA 1-3 Year U.S. Treasury Index rose 0.74% in the quarter but remained in negative territory for the year at –3.65%, only the second negative calendar year since 1978. This 2022 performance differential of 511 basis points was the most notable headwind for our portfolio's relative performance as passive option strategy indexes generally hold 1- to 3-month U.S. T-Bills as collateral.

In general, the Fund performed in line with expectations for 2022. Yet, unprecedented interest rate increases in 2022 proved to create a modest relative performance challenge versus option strategy indexes. We had reduced the duration of the Fund's collateral portfolio to approximately one year by the end of 2021, but any duration exposure was a detractor in 2022. Importantly, the 2022 performance dispersion between short-dated U.S. Treasury securities accounted for basically all of the Fund's underperformance versus the PUT Index which holds U.S. T-Bills as collateral. The good news is that collateral portfolio losses suffered in 2022 are largely marked-to-market in nature and discounted U.S. Treasury bond positions should recover to their full values (par values) at maturity. Over the reporting period, the Fund's S&P 500 putwriting strategy and the collateral portfolio detracted from overall Fund performance. Meanwhile, weekly putwriting, as measured by the Cboe S&P 500 One-Week PutWrite (WPUT), fell a material –14.25%, and the Cboe S&P 500 BuyWrite Index (BXM) tumbled –11.37%. Over the same period, the collateral portfolio modestly declined and finished behind the T-Bill Index return of 1.46%. During the reporting period, there were no positive contributors to Fund performance.

During the first quarter of 2022, the Fund adjusted its average option notional exposure from the strategic target of 85% S&P 500 Index and 15% Russell 2000® Index to 100% S&P 500 Index. We believe the U.S. small cap public equity universe is evolving into a less productive investment opportunity for several reasons, including:

•  Private equity capital has grown to material levels over the last two decades.

•  With increased demand to find investments, many private investors are holding investments until they reach larger market capitalizations than they have in the past.

•  New investment vehicles such as Special Acquisition Corporations (SPACs) acquire or merge with smaller companies, that results in the companies' dropping out of small cap indices.

•  Some small cap indices are relatively concentrated in a few names.

•  Retail investors have the potential to influence smaller company prices and create 'meme' stocks that may have an outsized effect on small cap index performance.

We believe the challenges facing public U.S. small cap equities have contributed to the erosion in the risk efficiency of a Russell 2000 Index putwrite strategy relative to a S&P 500 Index putwrite strategy. Hence, as of February 28, 2022, we have removed the Russell 2000 equity exposure from the Fund. We believe this adjustment has the potential to result in a reduction in strategy volatility levels and an overall increased level of risk efficiency.

With the annual cycle of financial and economic prognostication upon us, we believe the next decade looks far more challenging than the last as investors face a combination of risks not seen in our careers, if ever. Specifically, investors face a 'dirty dozen': higher interest rates, aging demographics, polarized politics, uncertain inflation, pandemic policies, ESG regulation (social taxation), energy/commodity insecurity, decentralized finance (DeFi), climate disasters, social media (conspiracies), decreasing financial liquidity, and armed conflicts (war has many modern names). In our view, each of these factors has the potential to impact global economic outcomes in the coming decade, but it's impossible to handicap what combinations will emerge as the key economic drivers/influences. Regardless, we believe their confluence will lead to an unprecedented equity market volatility landscape characterized by less cyclical implied volatility levels that remain 'higher for longer.' The Cboe S&P 500 Volatility Index (VIX) continues to price higher equity market risk levels and resists returning to below long-term average levels. With increased levels of implied volatility over the course of the year, implied volatility premiums were positive in three out of four quarters and averaged 1.42 for the full reporting period. Lastly, VIX futures markets seem to agree with our expectations that 2023 will experience persistent elevated levels of equity implied volatility.

Sincerely,

*  Prior to May 1, 2017, the Fund had different investment goals, fees and expenses, principal investment strategies and portfolio managers. Please also see Endnote 1.

^  On February 28, 2022, the Fund began comparing its performance to the 50% Cboe S&P 500 One-Week PutWrite Index/50% Cboe S&P 500 PutWrite Index rather than the 42.5% Cboe S&P 500 One-Week PutWrite Index/42.5% Cboe S&P 500 PutWrite Index/7.5% Cboe Russell 2000 One-Week PutWrite Index/7.5% Cboe Russell 2000 PutWrite Index because the 50% Cboe S&P 500 One-Week PutWrite Index/50% Cboe S&P 500 PutWrite Index has characteristics that are more representative of the Fund's investment strategy than its previous index.

The performance data quoted represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. For current performance data, including current to the most recent month-end, please visit http://www.nb.com/amtportfolios/performance.

The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. The results do not reflect fees and expenses of the variable annuity and variable life insurance policies or the qualified pension and retirement plans whose proceeds are invested in the Fund.

The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. Repayment by a class (of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by NBIA) will decrease the class's returns. Please see Note B in the Notes to Financial Statements for specific information regarding expense reimbursement and/or fee waiver arrangements.

As stated in the Fund's most recent prospectus, the total annual operating expense ratio for fiscal year 2021 was 1.53% for Class S shares (before expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, if any). The expense ratio was 1.06% for Class S shares after expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers. The expense ratios for the annual period ended December 31, 2022 can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

1  The Fund was relatively small prior to December 31, 2014, which could have impacted Fund performance. The same techniques used to produce returns in a small fund may not work to produce similar returns in a larger fund. Effective May 1, 2017, Absolute Return Multi-Manager Portfolio changed its name to the U.S. Equity Index PutWrite Strategy Portfolio and changed its investment goal, fees and expenses, principal investment strategies, risks and portfolio manager(s). Prior to that date, the Fund had a higher management fee, different expenses, a different goal and principal investment strategies, which included a multi-manager strategy, and different risks. Its performance prior to that date might have been different if the current fees and expenses, goal, and principal investment strategies had been in effect.

The Cboe S&P 500 One-Week PutWrite Index is designed to track the performance of a hypothetical strategy that sells an at-the-money (ATM) S&P 500® Index (SPX) put option on a weekly basis. The maturity of the written SPX put option is one week to expiry. The written SPX put option is collateralized by a money market account invested in one month Treasury bills. The index rolls on a weekly basis, typically every Friday. The Cboe S&P 500 PutWrite Index (PUT) is designed to represent a proposed hypothetical short put strategy. PUT is an award-winning benchmark index that measures the performance of a hypothetical portfolio that sells SPX put options against collateralized cash reserves held in a money market account. The PUT strategy is designed to sell a sequence of one-month, ATM SPX puts and invest cash at one- and three-month Treasury Bill rates. The Cboe Russell 2000 One-Week PutWrite Index is designed to track the performance of a hypothetical strategy that sells an ATM Russell 2000 Index put option on a weekly basis. The maturity of the written Russell 2000 put option is one week to expiry. The written Russell 2000 put option is collateralized by a money market account invested in one-month Treasury bills. The index rolls on a weekly basis, typically every Friday. The Cboe Russell 2000 PutWrite Index is designed to represent a proposed hypothetical short put strategy that sells a monthly ATM Russell 2000 Index put option. The written Russell 2000 put option is collateralized by a money market account invested in one-month Treasury bills. The S&P 500 Index is a float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that focuses on the large-cap segment of the U.S. equity market, and includes a significant portfolio of the total value of the market.

Information About Your Fund's Expenses (Unaudited)

As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs such as fees and expenses that are, or may be, imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (if applicable), and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in U.S. dollars) of investing in the Fund and compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

This table is designed to provide information regarding costs related to your investments. The following examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the six month period ended December 31, 2022 and held for the entire period. The table illustrates the Fund's costs in two ways:

Actual Expenses and Performance:

 

The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses in dollars, based on the Fund's actual performance during the period indicated. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses 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 section of the table under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During the Period" to estimate the expenses you paid over the period.

 
Hypothetical Example for
Comparison Purposes:
 

The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return at 5% per year before expenses. This return 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 this Fund versus other funds. To do so, Compare the expenses shown in this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not include any transaction costs, such as fees and expenses that are, or may be imposed under your variable contract or qualified pension plan. Therefore, the information under the heading "Hypothetical (5% annual 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 transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements U.S. Equity Index PutWrite Strategy Portfolio

Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

1  General: Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust") is a Delaware statutory trust organized pursuant to an Amended and Restated Trust Instrument dated March 27, 2014. The Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and its shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust U.S. Equity Index PutWrite Strategy Portfolio (the "Fund") is a separate operating series of the Trust and is diversified. The Fund currently offers only Class S shares. The Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board") may establish additional series or classes of shares without the approval of shareholders.

A balance indicated with a "—", reflects either a zero balance or a balance that rounds to less than 1.

The assets of the Fund belong only to the Fund, and the liabilities of the Fund are borne solely by the Fund and no other series of the Trust.

The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 "Financial Services—Investment Companies."

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("Management" or "NBIA") to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Shares of the Fund are not available to the general public and may be purchased only by life insurance companies to serve as an investment vehicle for premiums paid under their variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts and to certain qualified pension and other retirement plans.

2  Portfolio valuation: In accordance with ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurement" ("ASC 820"), all investments held by the Fund are carried at the value that Management believes the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment under current market conditions. Various inputs, including the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in the market, are considered in valuing the Fund's investments, some of which are discussed below. At times, Management may need to apply significant judgment to value investments in accordance with ASC 820.

ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to create a classification of value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.

•  Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

•  Level 2—other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, amortized cost, etc.)

•  Level 3—unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

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

The value of the Fund's investments in equity securities, exchange traded options written and rights, for which market quotations are available, is generally determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on the latest sale price quoted on a principal exchange or market for that security (Level 1 inputs). Securities traded primarily on the NASDAQ Stock Market are normally valued at the


14


NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. The NOCP is the most recently reported price as of 4:00:02 p.m., Eastern Time, unless that price is outside the range of the "inside" bid and asked prices (i.e., the bid and asked prices that dealers quote to each other when trading for their own accounts); in that case, NASDAQ will adjust the price to equal the inside bid or asked price, whichever is closer. Because of delays in reporting trades, the NOCP may not be based on the price of the last trade to occur before the market closes. If there is no sale of a security on a particular day, the independent pricing services may value the security based on market quotations.

The value of the Fund's investments in debt securities is determined by Management primarily by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on bid quotations, or if quotations are not available, by methods which include various considerations based on security type (generally Level 2 inputs). In addition to the consideration of yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type, indications as to values from dealers, and general market conditions, the following is a description of other Level 2 inputs and related valuation techniques used by independent pricing services to value certain types of debt securities held by the Fund:

U.S. Treasury Obligations. Inputs used to value U.S. Treasury securities generally include quotes from several inter-dealer brokers and other market information which may include benchmark yield curves, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, comparable securities and reference data, such as market research publications, when available ("Other Market Information").

U.S. Government Agency Securities. Inputs used to value U.S. Government Agency securities generally include obtaining benchmark quotes and Other Market Information.

Management has developed a process to periodically review information provided by independent pricing services for all types of securities.

Investments in non-exchange traded investment companies are valued using the respective fund's daily calculated net asset value ("NAV") per share (Level 2 inputs), when available.

If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, or if Management has reason to believe that the valuation received does not represent the amount the Fund might reasonably expect to receive on a current sale in an orderly transaction, Management seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers (generally considered Level 2 or Level 3 inputs depending on the number of quotes available). If such quotations are not available, the security is valued using methods Management has approved in the good-faith belief that the resulting valuation will reflect the fair value of the security. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board designated Management as the Fund's valuation designee. As the Fund's valuation designee, Management is responsible for determining fair value in good faith for any and all Fund investments. Inputs and assumptions considered in determining the fair value of a security based on Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to, the type of the security; the initial cost of the security; the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security's disposition; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; quotations or evaluated prices from broker-dealers and/or pricing services; information obtained from the issuer and/or analysts; an analysis of the company's or issuer's financial statements; an evaluation of the inputs that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.

Fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security is next quoted or next trades.

3  Foreign currency translations: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are normally translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on days the New York Stock Exchange is open for business, to determine the value of investments, other assets and liabilities. Purchase and sale prices of securities, and income and expenses, are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Net unrealized foreign currency


15


gain/(loss), if any, arises from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, as a result of changes in exchange rates and is stated separately in the Statement of Operations.

4  Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign dividends, as soon as the Fund becomes aware of the dividends. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, including accretion of discount (adjusted for original issue discount, where applicable) and amortization of premium, where applicable, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions and foreign currency transactions, if any, are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statement of Operations.

5  Income tax information: The Fund is treated as a separate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company ("RIC") by complying with the requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to its shareholders. To the extent the Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to shareholders, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.

ASC 740 "Income Taxes" sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as an income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not yet expired. As of December 31, 2022, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax positions.

For federal income tax purposes, the estimated cost of investments held at December 31, 2022, was $38,253,185. The estimated gross unrealized appreciation was $0 and estimated gross unrealized depreciation was $720,290 resulting in net unrealized depreciation in value of investments of $720,290 based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund. The Fund may also utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of their shares as a part of the dividends-paid deduction for income tax purposes.

Any permanent differences resulting from different book and tax treatment are reclassified at year-end and have no impact on net income, NAV or NAV per share of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund recorded permanent reclassifications primarily related to net operating losses written off.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund recorded the following permanent reclassifications:

(4,655,145

The temporary differences between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings are primarily due to mark-to market adjustments on options contracts, unamortized organization expenses and capital loss carryforwards.

To the extent the Fund's net realized capital gains, if any, can be offset by capital loss carryforwards, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gains. Capital loss carryforward rules allow for RICs to carry forward capital losses indefinitely and to retain the character of capital loss carryforwards as short-term or long-term. As determined at December 31, 2022, the Fund had unused capital loss carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes to offset net realized capital gains, if any, as follows:

  Capital Loss Carryforwards

 

Long-Term

 

Short-Term

 

$

2,360,881


 

$

1,570,961

   

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not utilize any capital loss carryforwards.

6  Foreign taxes: Foreign taxes withheld, if any, represent amounts withheld by foreign tax authorities, net of refunds recoverable.

7  Distributions to shareholders: The Fund may earn income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed once a year (usually in October) and are recorded on the ex-date.

8  Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds within the complex of related investment companies. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses of the Trust that are not directly attributable to a particular series of the Trust (e.g., the Fund) are allocated among the series of the Trust, on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the series can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which NBIA serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributable to a particular investment company in the complex (e.g., the Trust) or series thereof are allocated among the investment companies in the complex or series thereof on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the investment companies in the complex or series thereof can otherwise be made fairly.

9  Investment company securities and exchange-traded funds: The Fund may invest in shares of other registered investment companies, including exchange traded funds ("ETFs"), within the limitations prescribed by the 1940 Act, in reliance on rules adopted by the SEC, particularly Rule 12d1-4 or any other applicable exemptive relief. Rule 12d1-4 permits fund of funds arrangements, and includes (i) limits on control and voting; (ii) required evaluations and findings; (iii) required fund of funds investment agreements; and (iv) limits on complex structures. Shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear their proportionate share of any management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the management fees and expenses of the Fund.

10  Derivative instruments: The Fund's use of derivatives during the year ended December 31, 2022, is described below. Please see the Schedule of Investments for the Fund's open positions in derivatives at December 31, 2022. The disclosure requirements of ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815") distinguish between derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting and those that do not. Because investment companies value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statement of Operations, they do not qualify for hedge


17


accounting. Accordingly, even though the Fund's investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are considered non-hedge transactions for purposes of this disclosure.

Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act which became effective in August 2022, regulates the use of derivatives for certain funds registered under the 1940 Act ("Rule 18f-4"). The Fund has adopted a Rule 18f-4 Policy which provides, among other things, that unless the Fund qualifies as a "limited derivatives user" as defined in Rule 18f-4, the Fund is subject to a comprehensive derivatives risk management program, is required to comply with certain value-at-risk based leverage limits and is required to provide additional disclosure both publicly and to the SEC regarding its derivatives positions. If the Fund qualifies as a limited derivatives user, Rule 18f-4 requires the Fund to have policies and procedures to manage its aggregate derivatives risk.

Options: The Fund's principal investment strategy is an options-based strategy. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund used options written to manage or adjust the risk profile of the Fund or the risk of individual index exposures and to gain exposure more efficiently than through a direct purchase of the underlying security or to gain exposure to securities, markets, sectors or geographical areas. Options written were also used to generate incremental returns.

Premiums paid by the Fund upon purchasing a call or put option are recorded in the asset section of the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the current market value. When an option is exercised, closed, or expired, the Fund realizes a gain or loss and the asset is eliminated. For purchased call options, the Fund's loss is limited to the amount of the option premium paid.

Premiums received by the Fund upon writing a call option or a put option are recorded in the liability section of the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the current market value. When an option is exercised, closed, or expired, the Fund realizes a gain or loss and the liability is eliminated.

When the Fund writes a call option on an underlying asset it does not own, its exposure on such an option is theoretically unlimited. When writing a covered call option, the Fund, in return for the premium, gives up the opportunity for profit from a price increase in the underlying security above the exercise price, but conversely retains the risk of loss should the price of the security decline. When writing a put option, the Fund, in return for the premium, takes the risk that it must purchase the underlying security at a price that may be higher than the current market price of the security. If a call or put option that the Fund has written expires unexercised, the Fund will realize a gain in the amount of the premium. All securities covering outstanding written options are held in escrow by the custodian bank.

The Fund (as the seller of a put option) receives premiums from the purchaser of the option in exchange for providing the purchaser with the right to sell the underlying instrument to the Fund at a specific price (i.e., the exercise price or strike price). If the market price of the instrument underlying the option exceeds the strike price, it is anticipated that the option would go unexercised and the Fund would earn the full premium upon the option's expiration or a portion of the premium upon the option's early termination. If the market price of the instrument underlying the option drops below the strike price, it is anticipated that the option would be exercised and the Fund would pay the option buyer the difference between the market value of the underlying instrument and the strike price.

At December 31, 2022, the Fund had the following derivatives (which did not qualify as hedging instruments under ASC 815), grouped by primary risk exposure:

While the Fund may receive rights and warrants in connection with its investments in securities, these rights and warrants are not considered "derivative instruments" under ASC 815.

11  Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Trust's organizational documents provide that its officers ("Officers") and trustees ("Trustees") are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against the Trust.

Note B—Investment Management Fees, Administration Fees, Distribution Arrangements, and Other Transactions with Affiliates:

The Fund retains NBIA as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, the Fund pays NBIA an investment management fee at the annual rate of 0.45% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

The Fund retains NBIA as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. The Fund pays NBIA an administration fee at the annual rate of 0.30% of its average daily net assets under this agreement. Additionally, NBIA retains JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA ("JPM") as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. NBIA pays JPM a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

NBIA has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Fund so that the total annual operating expenses do not exceed the expense limitation as detailed in the following table. This undertaking excludes interest, brokerage commissions, dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, including any expenses related to tax reclaims and extraordinary expenses, if any (commitment fees relating to borrowings are treated as interest for purposes of this exclusion) ("annual operating expenses"); consequently, net expenses may exceed the contractual expense limitation. The Fund has agreed that it will repay NBIA for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed provided that repayment does not cause the annual operating expenses to exceed its contractual expense limitation in place at the time the fees and expenses were waived or reimbursed, or the expense limitation in place at the time the Fund repays NBIA, whichever is lower. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the year in which NBIA incurred the expense.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, there was no repayment to NBIA under this agreement.

Neuberger Berman BD LLC (the "Distributor") is the Fund's "principal underwriter" within the meaning of the 1940 Act. It acts as agent in arranging for the sale of the Fund's Class S shares. The Board has adopted a distribution and shareholder services plan (the "Plan") for Class S shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plan provides that, as compensation for administrative and other services related to the sale and distribution of Class S shares, and ongoing services provided to investors in the class, the Distributor receives from Class S a fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of Class S's average daily net assets. The Distributor may pay a portion of the proceeds from the 12b-1 fee to institutions that provide such services, including insurance companies or their affiliates and qualified plan administrators ("intermediaries") for services they provide respecting the Fund to current and prospective variable contract owners and qualified plan participants that invest in the Fund through the intermediaries. Those institutions may use the payments for, among other purposes, compensating employees engaged in sales and/or shareholder servicing. The amount of fees paid by the class during any year may be more or less than the cost of distribution and other services provided to the class. FINRA rules limit the amount of annual distribution fees that may be paid by a mutual fund and impose a ceiling on the cumulative distribution fees paid. The Plan complies with those rules.

Other: At December 31, 2022, affiliated persons, as defined in the 1940 Act, owned 0.06% of the Fund's outstanding shares.

Note E—Line of Credit:

At December 31, 2022, the Fund was a participant in a syndicated committed, unsecured $700,000,000 line of credit (the "Credit Facility"), to be used only for temporary or emergency purposes. Series of other investment companies managed by NBIA also participate in this line of credit on substantially the same terms. Interest is charged on borrowings under this Credit Facility at the highest of (a) a federal funds effective rate plus 1.00% per annum, (b) a daily simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 1.10% per annum, and (c) an overnight bank funding rate plus 1.00% per annum; provided that should the Administrative Agent of the Credit Facility determine that the daily simple SOFR rate is unavailable, then the interest rate option described in (b) shall be replaced with a benchmark replacement determined to be applicable by such Administrative Agent. The Credit Facility has an annual commitment fee of 0.15% per annum of the available line of credit, which is paid quarterly. The Fund has agreed to pay its pro rata share of the annual commitment fee, based on the ratio of its individual net assets to the net assets of all participants at the time the fee is due, and interest charged on any borrowing made by the Fund and other costs incurred by the Fund. Because several mutual funds participate in the Credit Facility, there is no assurance that the Fund will have access to all or any part of the $700,000,000 at any particular time. There were no loans outstanding under the Credit Facility at December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not utilize the Credit Facility.

Note F—Recent Accounting Pronouncement:

In December 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2022-06 ("ASU 2022-06"), "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which is an update to Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-01 ("ASU 2021-01"), "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)" and defers the sunset date for applying the reference rate reform relief in Topic 848. ASU 2021-01 is an update of Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-04 ("ASU 2020-04"), which is in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and particularly the risk of cessation of LIBOR, regulators have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 is elective and applies to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU 2021-01 update clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The amendments in this update are effective immediately through December 31, 2024, for all entities. Management is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of the additional requirements and its impact on the Fund's financial statements.

Note G—Other Matters:

Coronavirus: The outbreak of the novel coronavirus in many countries has, among other things, disrupted global travel and supply chains, and adversely impacted global commercial activity, the transportation industry and commodity prices in the energy sector. The impact of this virus has negatively affected and may continue to affect the economies of many nations, individual companies and the global securities and commodities markets, including liquidity and volatility. The development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to its ultimate impact, which may have a continued adverse effect on global economic and market conditions. Such conditions (which may be across industries, sectors or geographies) have impacted and may continue to impact the issuers of the securities held by the Fund and in turn, may impact the financial performance of the Fund.


21


Russia's invasion of Ukraine: Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and corresponding events in late February 2022, have had, and could continue to have, severe adverse effects on regional and global economic markets for securities and commodities. Following Russia's actions, various governments, including the United States, have issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia. The current events have had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on global markets performance and liquidity, thereby negatively affecting the value of the Fund's investments beyond any direct exposure to Russian or Ukrainian issuers. The duration of ongoing hostilities and the vast array of sanctions and related events cannot be predicted. Those events present material uncertainty and risk with respect to markets globally and the performance of the Fund and its investments or operations could be negatively impacted.

Notes to Financial Highlights U.S. Equity Index PutWrite Strategy Portfolio

††  Total return based on per share NAV reflects the effects of changes in NAV on the performance of the Fund during each fiscal period. Returns assume income dividends and other distributions, if any, were reinvested. Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current returns may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns and principal will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost. Total return would have been lower if Management had not reimbursed and/or waived certain expenses. The total return information shown does not reflect charges and other expenses that apply to the separate accounts or the related insurance policies or other qualified pension or retirement plans, and the inclusion of these charges and other expenses would reduce the total return for all fiscal periods shown.

  Calculated based on the average number of shares outstanding during each fiscal period.

#  Represents the annualized ratios of net expenses to average daily net assets if Management had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fee.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders of
Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust
U.S. Equity Index PutWrite Strategy Portfolio and
Board of Trustees of the Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust U.S. Equity Index PutWrite Strategy Portfolio (the "Portfolio") (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust")), including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Portfolio (one of the portfolios constituting Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust) at December 31, 2022, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolio's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more Neuberger Berman investment companies since 1954.

Board Consideration of the Management Agreement

On an annual basis, the Board of Trustees (the "Board" or "Trustees") of Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust (the "Trust"), including the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust or of Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("Management") (including its affiliates), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), ("Independent Fund Trustees"), considers whether to continue the management agreement with Management (the "Agreement") with respect to U.S. Equity Index PutWrite Strategy Portfolio (the "Fund"). Throughout the process, the Independent Fund Trustees are advised by counsel that is experienced in 1940 Act matters and that is independent of Management ("Independent Counsel"). At a meeting held on September 29, 2022, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, approved the continuation of the Agreement for the Fund.

In evaluating the Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Fund Trustees, reviewed extensive materials provided by Management in response to questions submitted by the Independent Fund Trustees and Independent Counsel, and met with senior representatives of Management regarding its personnel, operations, and profitability as they relate to the Fund. The annual contract review extends over at least two regular meetings of the Board to ensure that Management has time to respond to any questions the Independent Fund Trustees may have on their initial review of the materials and that the Independent Fund Trustees have time to consider those responses. Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of Management.

In connection with its deliberations, the Board also considered the broad range of information relevant to the annual contract review that is provided to the Board (including its various standing committees) at meetings throughout the year, including reports on investment performance, portfolio risk, liquidity management, and other portfolio information for the Fund, including the use of derivatives, as well as periodic reports on, among other matters, pricing and valuation; quality and cost of portfolio trade execution; compliance; and shareholder and other services provided by Management and its affiliates. The Contract Review Committee, which is comprised solely of Independent Fund Trustees, was established by the Board to assist in its evaluation and analysis of materials for the annual contract review. The Board has also established other committees that focus throughout the year on specific areas relevant to the annual contract review, such as Fund performance or compliance matters, and that are charged with specific responsibilities regarding the annual contract review. Those committees provide reports to the full Board, including the members of the Contract Review Committee, which consider that information as part of the annual contract review process. The Contract Review Committee annually considers and updates the questions it asks of Management in light of legal advice furnished to it by Independent Counsel; its own business judgment; and developments in the industry, in the markets, in mutual fund regulation and litigation, and in Management's business model.

The Independent Fund Trustees received from Independent Counsel a memorandum discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreement. During the course of the year and during their deliberations regarding the annual contract review, the Contract Review Committee and the Independent Fund Trustees met with Independent Counsel separately from representatives of Management.

Provided below is a description of the Board's contract approval process and material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding renewal of the Agreement and the compensation to be paid thereunder. In connection with its approval of the continuation of the Agreement, the Board evaluated the terms of the Agreement, the overall fairness of the Agreement to the Fund, and whether the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. The Board's determination to approve the continuation of the Agreement was based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Board throughout the year and specifically in connection with the annual contract review. The Board considered the Fund's investment management agreement separately from those of other funds of the Trust.

This description is not intended to include all of the factors considered by the Board. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The Board focused on the costs and benefits of the Agreement to the Fund and, through the Fund, its shareholders.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services

With respect to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided, the Board considered the investment philosophy and decision-making processes of, and the qualifications, experience, and capabilities of, and the resources available to, the portfolio management personnel of Management who perform services for the Fund. The Board noted that Management also provides certain administrative services, including fund accounting and compliance services. The Board also considered Management's policies and practices regarding brokerage, commissions, other trading costs, and allocation of portfolio transactions and reviewed the quality of the execution services that Management had provided. The Board also reviewed Management's use of brokers to execute Fund transactions that provide research services to Management. Moreover, the Board considered Management's approach to potential conflicts of interest both generally and between the Fund's investments and those of other funds or accounts managed by Management. The Board noted the additional responsibilities of Management in administering the liquidity risk management program.

The Board recognized the extensive range of services that Management provides to the Fund beyond the investment management services. The Board noted that Management is also responsible for monitoring compliance with the Fund's investment objectives, policies, and restrictions, as well as compliance with applicable law, including implementing rulemaking initiatives of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board considered that Management assumes significant ongoing entrepreneurial and business risks as the investment adviser and sponsor for the Fund, for which it is entitled to reasonable compensation. The Trustees also considered that Management's responsibilities include continual management of investment, operational, cybersecurity, enterprise, legal, regulatory, and compliance risks as they relate to the Fund, and the Board considers on a regular basis information regarding Management's processes for monitoring and managing risk. In addition, the Board also noted that when Management launches a new fund or share class, it assumes entrepreneurial risk with respect to that fund or share class, and that some funds and share classes have been liquidated without ever having been profitable to Management.

The Board also reviewed and evaluated Management's activities under its contractual obligation to oversee the Fund's various outside service providers, including its renegotiation of certain service providers' fees and its evaluation of service providers' infrastructure, cybersecurity programs, compliance programs, and business continuity programs, among other matters. The Board also considered Management's ongoing development of its own infrastructure and information technology to support the Fund through, among other things, cybersecurity, business continuity planning, and risk management. The Board noted Management's largely seamless implementation of its business continuity plan in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its success in continuously providing services to the Fund notwithstanding the disruptions caused by the pandemic. In addition, the Board noted the positive compliance history of Management, as no significant compliance problems were reported to the Board with respect to Management. The Board also considered the general structure of the portfolio managers' compensation and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the Fund. The Board also considered the ability of Management to attract and retain qualified personnel to service the Fund.


38


As in past years, the Board also considered the manner in which Management addressed various matters that arose during the year, some of them a result of developments in the broader fund industry or the regulations governing it. In addition, the Board considered actions taken by Management in response to market conditions and considered the overall performance of Management in this context.

Fund Performance

The Board requested a report from an outside consulting firm that specializes in the analysis of fund industry data that compared the Fund's performance, along with its fees and other expenses, to a group of industry peers ("Expense Group") and to a broader universe of funds pursuing generally similar strategies with the same investment classification and/or objective ("Performance Universe"). The Board considered the outside consulting group's statements regarding the composition of each of the Expense Group and Performance Universe and whether they were inclusive of non-proprietary funds, such as the Fund, operated for insurance company investors by independent investment managers or both proprietary funds that are operated by insurance companies or their affiliates, and non-proprietary funds. The Board considered the Fund's performance and fees in light of the limitations inherent in the methodology for constructing such comparative groups and determining which investment companies should be included in the comparative groups, noting differences as compared to certain fund industry ranking and rating systems. The Board also considered the impact and inherent limitation on the comparisons due to the small number of funds included in the Fund's Expense Group and Performance Universe.

With respect to investment performance, the Board considered information regarding the Fund's short-term performance, net of the Fund's fees and expenses, on an absolute basis, relative to a benchmark index that does not deduct the fees or expenses of investing, and compared to the performance of the Expense Group and Performance Universe, each constructed by the consulting firm. The Board also reviewed performance in relation to certain measures of the degree of investment risk undertaken by the portfolio managers.

The Performance Universe referenced in this section was identified by the consulting firm, as discussed above. For any period of underperformance, the Board considered the magnitude and duration of that underperformance relative to the Performance Universe, and/or the benchmark (e.g., the amount by which a Fund underperformed, including, for example, whether the Fund slightly underperformed or significantly underperformed its benchmark). With respect to performance quintile rankings for the Fund compared to its Performance Universe, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance. For investment performance comparisons, the Board looked at the Fund's Class S as a proxy for both of the Fund's classes.

With regard to performance, the Board considered that the Fund adopted an entirely new investment strategy in May 2017. The Board considered that, for its new investment strategy since May 2017, based on performance data for the periods ended December 31, 2021: (1) as compared to its prior benchmark, the Fund's performance was higher for the 1-, 3-, and 5-year periods; and (2) as compared to its Performance Universe, the Fund's performance ranked third out of three funds for the 1-year period and first out of two funds for the 3- and 5-year periods. The Board also noted the Fund's ranking was in the third quintile of its Lipper peer category for the 7-month period ending July 31, 2022. In addition, the Board noted that in February 2022, Management added a new portfolio manager, adjusted its strategy, and changed its benchmark index to an index with characteristics that are more representative of the Fund's investment strategy.

The Board recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. The Board further acknowledged that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance, and that a single investment theme could disproportionately affect performance. The Board also considered Management's responsiveness to the Fund's relative performance. In this regard, the Board noted that performance, especially short-term performance, is only one of the factors that it deems relevant to its consideration of the Agreement and that, after considering all relevant factors, it determined to approve the continuation of the Agreement.


39


Fee Rates, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits

With respect to the overall fairness of the Agreement, the Board considered the fee structure for the Fund under the Agreement as compared to the Expense Group provided by the consulting firm, as discussed above. The Board reviewed a comparison of the Fund's management fee to its Expense Group. The Board noted that the comparative management fee analysis includes, in the Fund's management fee, the separate administrative fees paid to Management. However, the Board noted that some funds in the Expense Group pay directly from fund assets for certain services that Management covers out of the administration fees for the Fund. Accordingly, the Board also considered the Fund's total expense ratio as compared with its Expense Group as a way of taking account of these differences.

The Board compared the Fund's contractual and actual management fees to the median of the contractual and actual management fees, respectively, of the Fund's Expense Group. (The actual management fees are the contractual management fees reduced by any fee waivers or other adjustments.) The Board also compared the Fund's total expenses to the median of the total expenses of the Fund's Expense Group. The Board noted that the Fund's total expenses were higher than the Expense Group median, and considered whether specific portfolio management, administration or oversight needs or the Fund's relatively small size contributed to the Fund's total expenses. With respect to the quintile rankings for fees and total expenses (net of waivers or other adjustments, if any) for the Fund compared to its Expense Group, the first quintile represents the lowest (best) fees and/or total expenses and the fifth quintile represents the highest fees and/or total expenses. For fee comparisons, the Board looked at the Fund's Class S as a proxy for both of the Fund's classes.

The Board considered that, as compared to its Expense Group, the Fund's contractual management fee ranked in the third quintile, the actual management fee net of fees waived by Management ranked in the first quintile, and total expenses ranked in the fourth quintile. In addition to considering the above-referenced factors, the Board took note of its ongoing dialogue with Management regarding the dynamics of the insurance/annuity marketplace. The Board considered, among other matters, related tax restrictions and the unique challenges facing that market generally, which assisted the Board in understanding the context for the Fund's expense ratio and performance.

In concluding that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund, the Board reviewed specific data as to Management's estimated loss on the Fund for a recent period on a pre-tax basis without regard to distribution expenses. (The Board also reviewed data on Management's estimated loss on the Fund after distribution/servicing expenses and taxes were factored in, as indicators of the health of the business and the extent to which Management is directing its profits into the growth of the business.) The Board considered the cost allocation methodology that Management used in developing its estimated profitability figures. In recent years, the Board engaged an independent forensic accountant to review the profitability methodology utilized by Management when preparing this information and discussed with the consultant its conclusion that Management's process for calculating and reporting its estimated loss was not unreasonable.

Recognizing that there is no uniform methodology regarding the allocation of firm-wide or complex-wide expenses within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose and that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to different profit and loss results, the Board, in the past, requested from Management examples of profitability calculated by different methods and noted that the estimated profitability levels were still reasonable when calculated by these other methods. The Board further noted Management's representation that its estimate of profitability is derived using methodology that is consistent with the methodology used to assess and/or report measures of profitability elsewhere at the firm. In addition, the Board recognized that Management's calculations regarding its costs may not reflect all risks, including regulatory, legal, operational, cybersecurity, reputational, and, where appropriate, entrepreneurial risks, associated with offering and managing a mutual fund in the current regulatory and market environment. The Board also considered any fall-out (i.e., indirect) benefits likely to accrue to Management or its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund, such as research it may receive from broker-dealers executing the Fund's portfolio transactions on an agency basis. The Board noted that Management incurred a loss on its management of the Fund during the review period even before consideration of distribution expenses and taxes.


40


Information Regarding Services to Other Clients

The Board also considered other funds and separate accounts that were advised or sub-advised by Management or its affiliates with investment objectives, policies and strategies that were similar to those of the Fund, and compared the fees charged to the Fund to the fees charged to such comparable funds and separate accounts. The Board considered the appropriateness and reasonableness of any differences between the fees charged to a Fund and such comparable funds and/or separate accounts, and determined that differences in fees and fee structures were consistent with the differences in the management and other services provided. The Board explored with Management its assertion that although, generally, the rates of fees paid by such accounts, except other Neuberger Berman mutual funds, were lower than the fee rates paid by the corresponding Fund, the differences reflected Management's greater level of responsibilities and significantly broader scope of services to the Fund, the more extensive regulatory obligations and risks associated with managing the Fund, and other financial considerations with respect to creation and sponsorship of the Fund.

Economies of Scale

The Board also evaluated apparent or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services Management provides to the Fund. The Board considered that the Fund's fee structure does not provide for a reduction of payments resulting from the use of breakpoints, and concluded that the lack of breakpoints was reasonable based on the consideration that setting competitive fee rates and pricing the Fund to scale are other means of sharing potential economies of scale with shareholders. In addition, the Board considered the expense limitation and/or fee waiver arrangements that reduces Fund expenses at all asset levels which can have an effect similar to breakpoints in sharing economies of scale with shareholders and provide protection from an increase in expenses if the Fund's assets decline. The Board also considered that Management has provided, at no added cost to the Fund, certain additional services, including but not limited to, services required by new regulations or regulatory interpretations, services impelled by changes in the securities markets or the business landscape, and/or services requested by the Board. The Board considered that this is a way of sharing economies of scale with the Fund and its shareholders.

Conclusions

In approving the continuation of the Agreement, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Agreement are fair and reasonable to the Fund and that approval of the continuation of the Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. In reaching this determination, the Board considered that Management could be expected to continue to provide a high level of service to the Fund; that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory over time; that the Board retained confidence in Management's capabilities to manage the Fund; that the Fund's fee structure appeared to the Board to be reasonable given the nature, extent, and quality of services provided or the Fund's relatively small size; and that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund. The Board's conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of materials prepared in connection with the approval or continuance of the Agreement in prior years and on the Board's ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year, in addition to material prepared specifically for the most recent annual review of the Agreement.
